May's POV
Driving home from work took longer than usual, since my mother's death everything just seemed so dull and blue. Not a week had left since her memorial and yet here i am coming home from work.
As i walk inside my tiny studio apartment, all i wanna do is just sleep and never wake up again. First dad left without any explanation, then mom. How am i suppose to live now. I just hope that atleast a part of me is still alive. Hoping that tomorrow would bring a new begining just like i do every other night i get myself to bed.
Waking up i look at my watch and realise that i was late, i was suppose to meet a client for brunch. I got up quickly, took a shower, get dress and head out for work.
Walking into the fancy restaurant i only feel so out of place. My client was somewhat as i heard one of the biggest business man in Mexico, my first thought was, "is the business related to drugs" but right now i could care less. I really need to sell my paintings and start saving my money to open my own gallery.
Before more than half of my income would be use for mother's medication and chemo therapy, now i just have myself to look after and don't have to worry about others, yet i still don't have my inner peace rather i feel extremely lonely.
As soon as i told the name for the reservation the waiter quickly took me to a very private room. Walking in i can to see a man standing at the end of a very, and when i say very i mean it...long table probably 20 feet and my first guest was what type of wood did they use.
I was brought out of my imagination when someone cleared their throat. The man from earlier look at me than gave me a kind smile. "Good to see you miss, you must be Miss. Smith , I am August Walker and I am here to take a look at the paintings that you presented at our gallary a month ago" . "Oh...Nice to meet you Mr. Walker , it is very nice of you to notice my work and helping me by allowing me to join your exibition before".
He look like a perfect gentle man with his suit and hairstyle. "Well the pleasure was all ours, and i have to say you really are a one heck of a skilled painter". Feeling flattered by the compliment i blushed and gave a small chuckle. "Still without people like you, i would have never got the recognition i have today". He looked pleased by my answer and say
"Actually i am just the advisor here, it is our CEO who really fell in love with your work and decided to have us contact you. He will be here in any minute. I hope it would not be a problem if we wait for him a little more". "Not at all". We decided to have a seat. He sat to the far end of the table from where i sat but to the right side in a sense of saving the seat for his boss.
Minutes passed and as we are talking the door to the private room opened with a loud bang and got us out of our conversation.
As i look across the room i came to see the most gorgeous man i have ever met. With honey brown eyes, sharp jawline, and a very masculine structure body. If i had not seen him blink his eyes i would have thought he was a perfectly curved statue or something. Before i got to say anything i heard a word coming out of the man's mouth "MATE".
At instant i was being crushed into a very strong body, but rather than being uncomfortable i feel safe and warm which was so strange and a very scary feeling on the other hand. I tried to get out of the man's hold but he won't budge.
"ummm.... Sir could you please release me" and then he look into my green eyes and say "I have waited so long for you mi amore" and gave me the most amazing smile i have seen.
All of a sudden i realise that Mr. Walker was still in the room and had seen everything that just happened.
I quickly ducked from the man's hold and turn to Mr. Walker, but as i was no longer near or touching him the man begin to growl..like GROWL..
if i had not been so caught up in the moment i would have literally run away as fast as possible.An awkward silence began to take place with me looking at my shoes as if it was the most interesting thing while the other two man continue to look at me....one with confusion and the other one..i can't really tell but i have never had someone look at me in that way. It was so magical yet creepy.
Sensing my discomfort Mr. Walker decided to speak "Oh..Miss. Smith well this is my boss and CEO Mr. Alexender Dravis and sir this is ummm...Miss. May Smith i was talking about."
The man Mr. Dravis never took his eyes off of me but instead decided to take a step closer to me. This actions were very calculating, as if he was afraid to scare or startle me. Without saying a word he took my hand and place a gentle kiss on it. From his position he look up to me whish was very funny cause he was atleast 6'2 while i was barely 5'2. My mama use to joke saying that if oxygen was available only 5 feet above i would be one of the first who won't survive.
And here seeing a man, as beautiful and magnificent creation bowing before me and kissing my hand i feel dizzy with many emotions i've never felt before.
"I can't believe i found you at last". Who was this man exaclty and what was he talking about. All i know is i have never seen this man in my life, if i had no doubt that there is no way i would have forget such a recognisable man.
"Ummm...Sir i think you may have mistook me for someone else, this is actually the first time we met" for a moment there was a confusion in his face but it soon was replaced with another smile.
"No me amore you may have not known me but i have been waiting for you my whole life". Okay now this just seem weird and creepy i know that i have to get out of here as fast as possible.
So i quickly turn to Mr. Walker and say "I am so sorry Mr. Walker but this is just weird and uncomfortable for me so i think it will be best if i just go and end this meeting for now".
Hearing me talk about leaving Mr. Dravis/Alex begin to growl again."You aren't leaving me, ever" i was not scared at first but then i guess i could not be more wrong. His eyes...his eyes were pitch black.How was that possible?
I was so lost, all i know is that i want to get out of here as soon as possible.
Mr. Walker could see i was literally shaking with fear and thats when he decided to interfere. "Sir i think you are scaring the young lady, please calm down" but Alex did not seem to calm down but rather see Mr. Walker/August as a threat when he tried to shield me from him.
If i thought the sounds he made earlier was loud well i thought wrong.
This time he made another enormous and threatening growl louder than ever. So scared i began to shake and sob but i tried as much as i could to cover the sounds i was making but that did not work at all.Both men look towards my direction as quick as my sobs were heard. August gave me a sympathetic look while Alex..i can't really tell but he seemed to be confused at first then an he came to see my tears he looked somewhat guilty and hurt at the same time.
I took that as a chance to run out of the room. I ran as fast as i can but even then i could still hear them calling my name. Alexander shouting out "Amore stop" but it made me even more scared.
I did not see what was coming but i did remember trying to cross the road then everything went blank. I heard noises, blurry traffic lights and just before i pass out i heard again
"Mi amore i am sorry, please open those beautiful eyes, please don't leave me, i can't lose you not when i just got to hold you"
