It was finally the last day of the summit, the day Aries had been waiting impatiently for, not because he was going to be attending a boring ball hosted by none other than him and Ella, he was impatient because he couldn't wait to see Sephora once again.

Seeing her in the news for the past months closing in on a year was less than satisfying because no camera could ever do her beauty the much needed justice it deserved.

    "Relax uncle, you are making us anxious"
Berlin commented, making everyone in the car burst into laughter.

       "She's right though, you need to relax brother"
Ella said to Aries before rubbing his shoulder and focusing back on Cara who only nodded encouragingly towards Aries who nodded back.

       "We are here"
Ivy all but yelled before unlocking her seat belt and going to Aries who was already waiting outside the car.

Carefully he placed a sunshade on her then passed the rest to his family.

Hopefully they don't go blind from all the light.

Carefully they made their way inside only separating when annoyingly boring people started stopping him to interact except today wasn't the day.

Quickly he disappeared from the crowd and went straight to the direction the kids had taken earlier on except nothing could have prepared him for the sight that almost knocked the breath out of him.

There she stood, so stunning, standing tall and proud in the midst of the richest people all over the world.

She wasn't even saying anything yet somehow she captivated all their attention.

Not just theirs but most importantly, Maxwell.

The only man who hurt his sister and lived to tell the tale literally.

Aries would have given anything just to go over there and throw her over his shoulder and simply walk away but he also knew that he couldn't do that, she wasn't he's, at least not yet or in the near future.

Sitting in the corner was none other than Sheila whose obsession seemed to be taking a deeper form looked around the room in absolute boredom.

She could see a lot of men gathered at the center, chit chatting and flashing what she guessed was supposed to be charming smile.

In her eyes they were as insignificant as their supposed fake smiles hence the reason why she looked away and continued to look around yet none seemed to be standing out till her eyes landed on HIM.

There he was, dark empty eyes staring unwaveringly at lord knows who.

It's not like Sheila cared hence the reason why she walked straight to Aries whose eyes hadn't moved yet.

   "Aries"
Sheila whispered breathlessly.

Taking in the sight of the Custom made, three piece claded god whom clothes could never do enough justice.

In that moment Sheila knew she had to have Aries whom at this point hadn't even acknowledged her presence.

It was Okay, quickly Sheila rushed away.

She finally found the man that her father could marry her off to.

Aries on the other hand sat there, eyes now focused on Sephora who still had her sole focus on the people she was having conversations with.

     "If you wish to talk to her I'm sure we can make it happen"
Matheo suggested, gently nodding towards Sephora who now took her sit in the front row of the hall.
