Dangerous Pursuit

Chapter 11

Zac

I can't believe that I will see her again. After five long years of longing to touch her again, I am able to see her in flesh today.

I was assigned to search the whereabouts of my partner, Jeremy. A partner that I don't like much because of his arrogance. Well, I can give the credit of thanking him though this time because he led me to Sandy. I promise to pursue what we started before, Sandy. This time I will not let you go.

"Hi I am Zac your new partner." I offer my hand to shake her soft hands. She just looked at me and meekly smiled. She looks so naïve and gentle. I wonder how could a girl like her works in the organization like this.

"I'm Sandy." she ushered me to sit in front of her. "Nice to meet you too."

She looks so pretty with her sundress with matching sunglasses that hide her eyes. Even I can't see the full view of her face behind the wide eyeglasses I know she is beautiful.

I was assigned to be her partner and I have to discretely meet her in the restaurant like a blind date. I was excited to be in action with these missions. Never I thought that I will feel like a teenage boy meeting a 'blind date' will be this nerve wrecking. When I entered the restaurant, she is sitting with her back on me. The description given to me was only someone with yellow floral sundress and I only saw one wearing it. So she is the one. I tried to study her first. Her pale smooth skin glistens as the sun touches them. Her long brunette hair softly flowing over her shoulders. I try to guess if I rate this girl from 1 to 10, probably she's 6. Many are good looking from the back only. I don't want to be dismayed and I will end up laughing in front of her. She'll be my partner and I don't want to have bad impression.

When I see her face to face, the rate shoots up to 8. I still did not give my perfect 10 not until I see her fully. Her big sunglass is covering her face but those perfect white teeth and red full red lips says it all. Now I am too excited to see her without it.

"Would you like to stay here or we go somewhere quiet?" she asked me seductively.

"Let's go then." I eagerly decide to be able to see her closer. Though that's what is in the script that should be followed.

I stand up and offer her my arms where she gladly hooked her arms. I can smell her sweet perfume. We walk together like couple and she look at me behind those glasses adoringly. She ushered me to her red sports car and off we go.

I can't help but look at her while she drives confidently. She glanced and gave me a smile. The drive was silent. I want to ask but for the first time I bite my tongue. How can this girl affect me like this? I am Zac and women are swooning on my charms. I think I met my match.

The roads lead us to an old mansion. She went down from the car and signaled me to follow. When the door opens she removed her glasses which made me gawk at her beauty. Those emerald eyes looking at me mesmerized my whole being. I am in a deep shit!

"Hey, not happy of what you are seeing?" she raised her brows in me. The sweetness of her voice gone. "Have a sit."

Suddenly my senses recovered and I just smirked. I sat in front of her looking at her. I want her to melt in my stare which I used to have with women but I fail.

"So, Sandy is your real name?" I tried to make conversation attempting to know her better. Suddenly I got interested with her but I will not show her.

"Whatever you like to call me. Sandra or Sandy." She's so formal. She means business.

"We are partners you know so I hope we can get along each other."
