But with him.

I kept looking at him with my shocked eyes as he walked out of the room in his signature black suit and his perfectly combed black hair. His grey eyes stayed fixed on me as he took threatening steps toward me. My grip on my bag tightened even more as my heart started to beat even faster. Suddenly for a split of seconds, I went into a flashback of my past but I blinked my eyes. Not letting it wander in my mind. I was trying to act strong as I looked back at him while swallowing hard. The tension in the air has doubled. 

Even if I was stopping myself from thinking about the past I couldn't stop myself from thinking about why he was here. What was he doing here? Why is he here instead of the new owner? Is he the new owner? My eyes widened a bit more as awareness dawned on me. The small ray of hope I had in my mind crumbled in seconds. Now my face had lost all its colour as I just kept looking at his relaxed yet serious face. It looked like he was here for a reason and when he saw my pale face a smirk formed on his face. His jaw remained clenched. He walked towards me with his heavy steps and undid his blazers button before taking a seat in front of me. I kept standing in front of him while gripping my bag tightly. I kept looking at him with my blank eyes as he sat with his regal power oozing out of him. I was still in shock. 

"Miss. Sage King right or your name is fake too" he mocked in his firm voice as he looked at me with an angry smirk on his face. I kept standing quiet not knowing how to react to it because I was still so shocked by all this. He was still mocking me and it was clear he was still mad at me. Even after I signed those papers for him. His grey eyes moved all over my pale face but they didn't stop there they kept moving down word. His hard grey eyes moved on my neck and slowly slid down to my chest which was rising and falling as I felt fear of losing our dinner. They stayed over it for a few seconds before deciding more down. The way his eyes were moving made me take deep breaths. I felt like hiding myself when I felt his mad and at the same time heated gaze on my body. Even if the urge to run and hide was screaming in me I kept standing there like a statue. I took a deep breath, swallowing the tension. 

"Why are you doing this," I asked him this question straight away without beating around the brush. I wanted to know it even though I was afraid to know what he would say next because I know it won't be pretty. I knew he was here for a reason. He had increased the buying price to make it more difficult for us to pay him back. He has a problem with me. Why is he dragging my whole family into this? Why is he even here if he never wanted to see my face? Why was he here after getting my sign on restraining papers? All these thoughts kept tuning in the back of my mind. Listing my question, his jaw seat a bit. His grey eyes hardened as he rested his back on the back of the couch with one hand resting on it. 

"You tell me why I'm here" he mocked again while looking into my eyes. Even though I was asking him his purpose straight away; he tended to bet on the brush. He was having his fun by increasing the suspense to torcher me. I stayed quiet because I seriously had no idea. His grey eyes again wandered all over my frame. 

"For what else I'm here take a wild guess," he said those words loud and clear looking straight in my eyes making a big lump form in the base of my throat. I tried to swallow it but I couldn't. Instead, it kept on increasing. 

"You thought I would let you go just like that after you deceived me in front of everyone. One thing I hate the most in my life and you did it to me. You lied to me and I don't let liars go without making them pay" he said in his firm voice. I could hear threatening them as I kept looking at him in disbelief. I kept staring at him with a stunned face after listening to his words. All my delusions were cracked by his harsh words. Why did I even think he would let me go this easily? He was still holding grudges against me. Even though I said sorry to him so many times he still has not forgiven me. Tears started to well up in my eyes but I did my best to swallow them. I blinked them away as I looked upwards to control my emotions. I sniffed a bit before looking back at him.
