CHAPTER TWO

Flavio stared into the unforgettable icy eyes of the only woman who had successfully left him speechless two long years ago.

If it were possible, she looked even more beautiful with her chocolate coloured hair in thick and full waves down her back and just enough cleavage in her dress to drive someone with amazing imagination insane.

She was a beautiful devil.

"Oh you two have met before?" Emilio interrupted his thoughts, a look of slight jealousy on his face.

"I wouldn't put it in such a way, I'd say we ran into each other, quite literally." She said smiling at the older man.

The sound of her silky voice only drove his self control to a place he hadn't visited since he was practically sixteen. He sat across from her, distracting himself by looking at the menu.

"I'm not one to beat around the bush so I'd like to hit the nail on the spot, how much are you considering Emilio."

Flavio had never met a business woman who went straight to the point. Most women he had met in business meetings were put there by their old or dying parents and they ended up using the position for their personal reasons. They either made cringe worthy jokes or flirted through out the meeting and here sat a woman who didn't even think eating was a good enough courtesy to take before talking business.

Emilio smirked before closing his menu and placing it on the hard table. "I love a woman who takes business seriously."

A ghost of a smile skimmed over her lips before she took out a pen and a piece of paper. "I'm going to write an amount of money I think is suitable and I know I can pay and if you think its unacceptable I'm happy to leave the property to.."

"Flavio, Del Grassi."

"Flavio." She said his name with so much disdain you'd think he killed every single pet she had ever had.

Emilio nodded before lacing his fingers together and patiently waiting to see what amount she'd write.

After mere seconds, she slid a piece of paper across the table and rose to her feet. "Hey you haven't even gotten a confirmation from him yet." Flavio found himself calling after her retreating figure.

She simply ignored him and walked out of the restaurant like she hadn't even heard a word.

Emilio showed him the amount she had written and his eyes grew in surprise by the words written on the paper.

'multiply whatever it is Mr Del Grassi gives to you and you've got yourself a buyer.'

She was smart, he'd give her that because for the first time in his life, he just lost a deal to a woman.

Katalynna woke up to the sound of her phone ringing. The sun hadn't even risen yet and that's when she knew it'd be no one else but Menna.

"What is it Menna?"

"Miss Alcazar I'm sorry but I just called to tell you Mr Montalvo called to say he had put the deed to Montalvo airways in your name; you got the deal."

She had gone to bed knowing she'd get the deal or else walking out of the restaurant would have been a slap not only to Flavio's face but hers too. She smiled before sitting up, she couldn't go to sleep so she thanked Menna and ended the call before walking into her bathroom.

Stripping off her night gown, the hopped into the shower and let her head run over the past days events.

She couldn't believe after two years she finally met the man who succeeded in embarrassing her on her first night out to an event as the new CEO of her company.

Even though she knew in the back of her mind that no one even noticed the accident, the little insecure part of her she kept in a cage at the very corner of her mind whispered self esteem crushing things to her whenever she thought of that day.

Not only did he spill his champagne on her, he had the audacity to smirk at his incident and rake his eyes down her body like a savage cave man.

She could still feel the feathery waves his honey coloured eyes gave her. The loud sound of her alarm clock confirmed she had been showering for thirty minutes.

She wrapped a towel around her body and walked to her closet. Feeling extra focused, she picked out a knee length crisp white pencil skirt and a burgundy coloured cropped top paired with a black coloured bag and court shoes.

She was ready to walk into her building and smile at the fact that in the last eleven hours, she had acquired two new companies.

Flavio adjusted his tie for the fifth time in a row before sighing and ripping the slim material from his neck.

He felt extremely frustrated. Not only did he loose a deal in one of the most embarrassing ways to a woman but he was annoyed with himself because all he could think about was placing said woman under his sheets and making her scream his name again and again in sheer pleasure.

He couldn't remove the image of her sweet full breasts out of his head or they way her full hips swung and she walked away from him the night before.

She was a seductress without even trying. With what he's heard about the famous Katalynna Alcazar, he knew she was in a new relationship to some French bloke or at least people thought she was and she wasn't one to play with her business. She never mixed business with pleasure which is why she never dated business partners, associates, potential clients, shareholders, board members and even people related to the previously mentioned which is why no one knew the name of her alleged French boyfriend.

She definitely had the look and body of the women he liked to sleep with but her character was a whole other case.

She was brave, outspoken, straight forward, reserved; she was everything all his past lady friends weren't and Flavio couldn't help but feeling like the thirteen year old he once was staring at Sophia Hernandez in class and feeling like if he uttered a word, he'd urinate on himself.

Katalynna Alcazar was different and he didn't know why but he felt like he needed to see how the gears in her head spun and like they say; get in her head, get in her bed.
