A Dance with the Billionaire #JustWriteIt

Chapter 14 (unedited)

James P.O.V

I was in my office completing some work when I got a phone call. Looking at the caller I.D, I was more than shocked. Why is Anaya calling? I could feel the adrenaline rising in my blood.
As soon as I picked the call and about to greet her, I was cut off.
"I want you to meet me at White Flora Park at 12.00p.m. If you are not there on time, then forget this number." She said and disconnected. This girl is no messing with. Why is she so reserved?

"Maria, cancel the lunch with Seph Cooperation." I pressed the intercom and said. This lunch is important for the fruitful future of the company. But I'm sure I'll get better deals. Anaya is a priority to me.
"Sure, sir. Anything else?"
"Yes, do inform my bodyguards that I'm leaving the office for the White Flora Park at 11.45 a.m"
"Yes sir, will that be all?"
"Yes"

Was the feelings yesterday common to both of us? I did kiss during all my one night stand but never like that.

I was done with a few phone calls and called Taylor telling him that I'm leaving the office. I walked out of my office and two bodyguards who were waiting in front of the door walked me to the elevators. I reached the ground floor and saw many employees greeting me. I only nob at them.

As I walked out, Taylor opened my Porsche passenger back door for me to enter. I sat on the leather seat and took out my iPhone. Taylor was in the front driving. My bodyguards were following behind. I can't take any risk specially going to a park, anything may happen.

After a ten minutes drive, I finally reached the park. I walked out of the car and made my way into the park. My bodyguards followed behind. The sun was unbearable so I asked Taylor to get my shades. After putting my sunglasses, I started searching for Anaya. There wasn't a lot of persons in the park. There were a few couples sitting on a benches, eating ice cream or giggling. This could be Anaya and me but I'm a monster. This thought unknowingly hitter my thought. But it wasn't a lie, I'm monster for putting aside my feelings and focusing more on the business. I closed my eyes and shook thoughts out of my mind. 

I started searching for Anaya and soon my eyes were attracted by a beautiful lady, her profile was so perfect and her brown hair simply wonderful. I walked toward the bench where she was seated along with my bodyguards following. I sat next to here with and she looked at me. She is so beautiful that even words can't describe. Her dress exposed perfectly her long beautiful legs. Her hazel eyes still had those sparkles and the power to get myself loss in it.

"James Rollins" I said in a business tone, extending my hand for a handshake. I feeling a bit strange, I don't know how to react when I'm around her.
"Anaya Khan. But I'm sure you already knew it." She replied taking my hand. She is quite confident for a student. I smirked.
"Well, you wanted to talk?" I asked straight away. I'm not sure about the way of starting a conversation with her.
"About last night.... Did you really mean that....kiss?" She said and it was clear that she was a bit embarrassed of asking this question to me. Is she that innocent?
"As we can say, we are both adults. Yes, I knew what I was doing. I wanted to kiss and I did. We did." I explained, trying to find the appropriate words being sure that whatever I'm saying doesn't make her feel like running away. That's what everyone wants to do when they are around you. A voice inside my head which I really wanted to shut up, said. As I looked at Anaya, her attention was diverted. She was looking around us.
"Who are those guys around us?" She asked pointing at Raulf, one of my bodyguards who was behind her.
"They are my bodyguards. I don't go anywhere without them." I replied casually and shrugged.
"Why do you have so many? I mean don't you feel it weird having so many men in black suit around you?" She asked. I could have expected that question.
"It's a normal thing to me. I'm a C.E.O and it's essential for me to have them as there might be emergencies like someone trying to shoot me. It's mainly for my own security." I explained her. If that day, there were bodyguards with us, maybe mum and dad would still be there.
"You are right. You need one." She said and laughed silently. Why is she reacting like that? What's funny in having bodyguards?
"What are you laughing at Miss Khan? Don't you believe that danger can be anywhere around?" I asked her as I could feel anger building slowly inside of me.
"Well, Mr Rollins. I believe that death is everywhere and anywhere. When the time comes for him to strike, no one and nothing can help. Nothing stops him." She explained me. How can her thought be like that? Maybe it's associated with the death of her parents. I'm sure she had been through a lot.
"Is that your thought then? That death is anywhere and everywhere?" I asked her still thinking about how she felt on that day.
"Yes, that's what I think. For example on my way back I might end up dyi.." Her words were like a nightmare. I placed my palm on her lips forcing them closed. I could feel the same weird feeling again.
"Don't you ever dare say that!" I said as I removed my shades. She looked into my eyes and me into hers. I won't let anything happen to her.
"Why do you even care?" She questioned. Her words brought me in rage. How can she say that!?!
"How can you say that after yesterday's kiss?" I asked trying to control my anger. As I heard her laughing, an evident sarcastic laugh. I was now more than angry.
"How can you say that you care after literally running away after that kiss yesterday?" She said as she looked like being upset.
"I know I went away but you can't say that I ran away!" That's it, I'm furious.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
"I might be scared that's why I 'ran away'." I said in a low voice. A lot was going through my mind now.
"Only cowards run away. I'm sorry but all this is a mistake. I'm sorry for taking your time." She said as she stood up. What!? How can she say that!?
"Anaya, you can't say that yesterday was a mistake! The way you kissed me! I know you have feelings for me!" I'm now more than furious. How can she reject me!?
"YES! It was all a mistake!" She said. Please tell me that's all a lie and that she wants me...!
"Unbelievable." I said and laughed sarcastically. Now it's my turn. I shook my head trying to regain my cool. "Anaya Khan don't ever forget one thing. I always get what I want and if I can't have it, I won't let anyone own it." I said articulating each and every word making her understand the whole sentence.
"Remember one thing, you are MINE." I told her and I meant every single word. I swear on all my possession, she'll be mine. "Goodbye Anaya. We will be meeting soon." I said and left.
