She was powerful,
not because she wasn't scared,
but because she went on so strongly,
despite the fear.

Cyndiana Collins POV
Once I was done with my shower. I went to my room and as promised Dee started doing my makeup. She finished by applying a red lipstick. Then I wore my gown. Surprisingly the latter hugged all my body curves perfectly. It was backless, but still it covered my chest which was of a huge concern to me.
She tied my long brown wavy hair in a loose and simple bun, and let some strands of hair waving on the side and as expected I was ready at 8pm.
"You look absolutely stunning my little baby sister, I'm sure nobody would be able to take their eyes off you" And winked at me.
I know she was referring to Ryan as well, but as usual I ignored it as I knew there was no hope left for us being together especially after he proved me that I was worthless for him just by his actions.
Love never hurts but rejection does, I whispered to myself!
I smiled thanking her then headed outside our house where the car
that is a black Mercedes sent by Ryan (Devil) was waiting. I stopped walking and thought about a fake excuse of going but then I reminded myself about the contract and gathered some courage. At the same point of time, the driver Blake who was about my age that is 22, noticed my uneasiness and opened the car's door for me, I quickly accepted his small act of generosity and sat inside the car while he drove to the most magnificent and expensive hotel in town.
At first I hesitated to go inside and wonder how dumb that man could be. He knew I was not familiar to these type of parties yet he left me all alone. I was in deep thoughts when a man in a grey suit approached me, he looked around 23 years old and had adorable grey eyes. He looked sinfully handsome but not more than Ryan, oh my god, what is happening to me? Why am I even comparing everyone with that ugly creature ?
"You look gorgeous miss may I know your beautiful name? " he asked.
I chuckled," I'm not beautiful. Well my name is Cyndiana Collins , what is yours? "
"Well pretty girls don't like to admit that they are beautiful when indeed they are. Well, my name is Xavier Rostove , pleasure to meet you Miss Collins or may I call you Cyndiana ?"
"The pleasure is all mine yes of course you can call me Cyndiana."
He must be related to my best buddy Daniel, since they share the same last name , I thought to myself.
"Well, do you mind going inside because it is freezing cold here and I know you're not comfortable at the moment, he said."
"Actually I'm waiting for my boss here, Ryan Smith, do you know where he might be? I asked him politely."
Xavier looked at me with disgust just at the mere mention of Ryan, well things are going to be tough here, I thought to myself.
"He must whoring around with some fake dolled up models, let's go inside then I promise I'll help you find that jerk ok?"
"Ok thank you, I replied."
