Could my life get any worse? Answer: yup a lot!

The beginning - chapter 1

could my life get any worse ... well I didn't think so but apparently it can, my name is Eliza stewards I'm 18 and I still live at home well its sort of like living alone because my mum has made our fortune modeling and therefore is out of the house until late and she leaves early in the morning, this is why I knew something important had happened when I saw her red convertible parked in its usual spot under the oak tree in the middle of the day.

As I unlocked the front door I tried to wipe my confused expression off my face I was sure mum would explain it all to me soon. "what are you doing!!! you cant wear those disgusting rags go upstairs and change into something elegant at once! And hurry up" and with those oh so lovely words she ran off towards the kitchen and I could hear she was shouting at the kitchen staff.

Well I wasn't happy as you could probably tell, I'm very conscious of what I wear and I certainly wouldn't go out wearing anything tacky or last season so what I wear is usually very nice but I knew what she meant by elegant, she wanted me to wear the dress she brought me a few weeks ago it was a baby blue cocktail dress with short cap sleeves and it came to just above my knee. It was flattering and it made my thin figure look more curvy, I chose some white stilettos and I put a white ribbon in my long brunette hair I gave myself the once over and practically sprinted down the many flights of stairs.

I reached the bottom and I didn't know where anyone was as I glanced around Sara one of the many kitchen girls walked into a room with a tray of coffee. I followed Sara in and as I reached the door way I was being looked at by the three most gorgeous people I have ever seen. I quickly closed my mouth as one of the eldest of the three stood up and announced in a confident voice "you must be Eliza, please do sit down we do not mean to intrude" well I did as I was told as these were clearly important people but I had never been told to sit down by a stranger in my own house before, and to be quite honest I found this rude.

I didn't want to speak so instead I glanced at the other three people sitting across from me the man who spoke looked fairly old perhaps in his late forties he had medium length brown hair tied back in a short ponytail, he had high cheekbones and full lips. He was wearing a navy blue suit which picked out the color in his eyes, which were a dark Grey/blue color.

The lady sat next to him must have been his wife she had short blond hair that came just below her ears and she had very subtle features, she was wearing a dress similar to my own but hers was a vibrant pink with a black belt round her waist which helped show off her tiny waist. She was beautiful but no where near as good looking as the younger man sat on her left.

He had medium length blond hair which fell round his face, he had the high cheekbones of the other man he must be there son and he had the same eyes as his mother but his were more vibrant and clear they were a light turquoise which I had never seen before and they had hints of blue around the outer edges. He was wearing a suit similar to his fathers but his was black and he had on a tie that matched the color in his eyes. He was the nicest looking out of the three.

It was he who was next to speak "hi Eliza my name is Neil and it is very nice to meet you" well his voice caught me off guard it was seductive and sexy and I couldn't think I didn't know what to say after a while and all my concentration I managed to mumble "nice to meet you too".

Luckily to save me further embarrassment mum walked in and immediately started talking "ah at last I see you have found us Eliza, now I can make the introductions; Eliza this is the Palvick family" she said pointing to the three people sat opposite from us. "this is Mrs. Marie Palvick and her husband Mr. John Palvick and there son Mr. Neil Palvick".

"nice to meet you all" after meeting many of mums business partners and employers I knew how to greet them when mum expected it.

"nice to meet you to Eliza" this was the first time that Marie had spoken and she had a friendly smile.

"well we have some news to tell you my dear, its very exiting and you might find it a bit of a shock at first but I'm sure you will be happy in the end" now I was worried if it was about me then this wouldn't be a good thing.

"Eliza i thought it was about time you had a husband so you are going to marry Neil"

I was shocked he was right I didn't expect that at all I thought it would be her trying to get me to sign with a modeling company again, but I did not expect this!!! couldn't breath I couldn't think the last thing I heard was "oh god I think shes gonna faint, john do something" and I was out cold.

I woke to a pair of strong hands shaking my arm and Neils voice murmuring in my ear "don't be scared its Neil you passed out, every things fine" he was speaking so quietly I could barley hear.

I tried to sit up I wasn't comfortable where I was laid but two hands gently griped my shoulders and pushed me back down. "don't sit up just yet you need to get some rest your going to need it" I opened my eyes and looked around I was back in my room someone had moved me from he comfy recliner and had laid me down on the bed. No-one else was in the room except for me and Neil, and he was laying next to me on my double bed and was leaning over me and had his hands over my arms as if to restrain me. I didn't like being held down I never have "will you please get off of me" hes making me feel defenseless now.

"why should i" he said in his playful voice.

I wasn't happy now I really didn't like this " because your making me feel vulnerable so either get off or piss off, your choice!!!!" I know it was rude but I hate being trapped.

Of course he jumped straight back and laid his arms by his sides, I felt kinda bad now he looked so shocked.

"I'm sorry I snapped at you I didn't mean it I promise"

he looked happier but still didn't say anything but he took my hand in his and played with the rings on my fingers.

I let him and laid there still and annoyed that I had managed to upset him so soon.

"GOD I HATE AKWARD SILENCES!!!" Neil practically screamed, he scared the living crap out of me.

He started laughing at what ever he had found funny, honestly it annoyed me.

"what are you laughing at!" he had to wait a few seconds before he could answer " honestly? ... the expression that you had on your face just then was so funny you looked freaked" and he started laughing again.

"maybe because I was flipping freaked you scared the living poop out of me when you yelled out like that"

"I'm sorry"

"you flipping better be" I know it was harsh but I'm a drama queen and I'm not going to back down without a fight.

"do you want me to prove how sorry I am" he whispered in that sexy voice of his. If he wants to play this game I can to.

"yes I would love you too" I said in my seductive voice although I was a little worried at what he meant by that.

He stroked my cheekbones with his free had and moved closer to me he paused giving me time to back away if I wanted to and then he closed the space and pressed his lips against mine, I returned the kiss and granted him access to my mouth as he asked for it.

He pulled away and looked me in the eyes and said happily "do you believe I'm sorry" well I had to admit I did so I spoke the truth and gave in "yes I do".

"good because Eliza, I feel like Ive known you a long time and I don't like the idea of a arranged marriage anymore than you do, I want time to get to know you and I want to have memories with you, I don't want to think that you have been forced into this marriage and so I will ask you now so that you have a chance to say no Eliza stewards will you marry me?"
