A Greek God's Treasure

Chapter 1

As my Maserati Gran-Cabrio  floated down the whining roads of River Falls Height, I sighed making the wind flow in my hair. Summer time was always the best time for me, the smell of honeycomb, sunlight and chocolate dipped doughnuts. Treasure is always in abundance this time around but unfortunately it will have to miss me. 

Vacation. My boss, Gemma Prune told me I need to find something  else to love except my job. That's why I got Freckles, my husband and also my cat. 

I pulled up into a small coffee shop, my uncle had given me directions to, Coco's Sips. I smiled as I opened the door and was welcomed by the smell of cinnamon. I joined the line to order the coffee. My phone pinged, indicating I had a message.

It is was only Hennessy, my little flame aka my best friend, she is still bugging me about the fancy party with her family and I'm heading to meet her right now, I sighed shaking my head. 

It was now my turn to order so I ordered a vanilla latte coffee and some Mocha Truffles, my favorite. I slid right over the other counter to collect my purchase, but my journey as cut short when I hit the wall instead, well a wall with hands. I turned around ready to attack the wall with hand, trust me not the weirdest thing I have dealt with.

It was a stunningly handsome man standing there looking down at me. I regained my previous posture with a little sass added.

"Could you watch where you are going ,miss??" he said in a dead tone, grabbing my wrist. "Yeah I could, but what purpose would you have in this world then?" I replied. "Hmmm," he said staring in my eyes.

I'll admitted,he kind of intimidated me, a bit I suppose. 

"178, espresso and two bagels," the waitress shouted. He moved his surprisingly beautiful green eyes to the waitress to collect the order. 

I stood watching his every move, though I'm not sure why I'm staring at him. I observed that he must be some kind of business man; for the tall black suit, perfectly tanned skin and silky jet black hair. 

"Miss, I believe this is yours?" a cute Latin waitress came up to me. I smiled and took it,leaving her with a tip. I sped off in my car heading to the mall to meet Henny.

I looked across the food court trying to find a certain raven. I soon located her in a booth near a ice cream parlor. I smiled, only Hennessy- Vodka Figuero never thinks it too early to get ice cream. I made sure to approach her from behind. 

I used my hand to blindfold her. She gasped," If you think this is funny you're wrong unless you're a little red-head you may come out of this alive,".I giggled " OK Sheriff Figuero," dramatically holding up my hands in the air. 

I sat across from her, taking a spoon out of her ice cream.

"Hey! That's mine ,you go get yours I've paid already," 

" What flavor??"

"Strawberry with rainbow sprinkles," She replied.

 I smiled, " Oh, you know me so well Vodka,"I kissed her on the cheeks and ran off to counter

"What's that?" Henny asked while look at the floral themed dress. " Oh, I guess it's from the dork who grabbed me in Sips," I replied looking at the slight bruise on my right arm. She raises a brow and said" Do I need to kill someone?"

"Maybe the person who made that hideous dress?" I said hoping Vere Wang was no where near here,we were currently look for a dress to wear to Hennessy's family formal party which is being hosted for her big brother return back to town.

"Hey! I like it. I could buy it for other occasions?" 

"Henny ,you need to stop wasting your parent's money on designer clothes you'll probably never wear,". As I spoke my eyes landed on the perfect dress; it was a burgundy off-shoulder mermaid dress. The dress literally calling to me. 

I went over and took up the rack, the material was soft and smooth..............

"Remey," Henny spoke, trying to get my attention. "Guess you found love, huh?" she said smirking and looking at the dress in my hand.

"A very expensive love,my dear" I said putting it back. "Uhuh, why is the dress going back on the rack?" . Hennessy asked" Have you seen the god damn price? I knew we shouldn't have looked in Vere Wang,"

"Cool it red head, I'll pay for it. It's the least I could do, having to draw you into this bad situation with me,"

"You darn right, but I can't I-" I began to protest.

"Fine you can pay me back after" I sighed, knowing she's not taking no for any answer. "C'mon," Hennessy said struggling to bring me back into Vere Wang. 

I smiled.
