Alpha's Little Mate

Chapter 17

I wanted to write about Juliet, Madeline's mother.

Just cauze!

*****

"Juliet, your art is really beautiful. People absolutely adore it. I hope you have a few paintings ready for us to sell. These are flying like cupcakes!" My friend and coworker, Jenny says. "Jen chill, you can't rush art." I say while hanging one of my paintings. Ever since I started working here and Jenna found out I paint as well, I have been selling my artwork here at Jenna's request and at first I was shy and unsure, but people seemed to love it.
"Well customers are asking for it and a certian hot shot has been asking for you!" She elbows me while doing that thing where her eyebrows wiggle. "Oh stop your nonsense Jen."

Speak of the devil and he shall appear. Walking in is William. He is some hot shot CEO of a company. He is really and I mean really handsome, he wears a suit like it's his second skin and with those blue eyes and chocolate brown hair, he is simply swoon worthy. He's not married nor does he have any girlfriend, how do I know that?
One word.
Jenny.
"A Miss Blair, how are you this fine morning." His eyes penetrates my soul. "Mr Brown, how many times have I said to call me Juliet." He smirks while placing his hand on his chin thinking. "Well if we count today it would be 50 if I am not mistaken" Unbelievable, "And if I recall I told you to call me William and yet here we are." He did, but I refuse to call him William, I'm afraid of what it might mean if I started calling him that.
Jenny of course, is no where to be found. "Well then, I guess I'll settle with Miss Blair then."
He stares at me for a few seconds, "Miss you are quite stubborn. I like that in a woman."
I blush like a dahm teenage girl, what is wrong with me. "Wel, maybe you should get one."
He laughed, oh the sound is so beautiful. "I've been trying, but she keeps denying me."
Surely he's not talking about me right?
"I'm sure any woman would like you in their company."
Again we are lost in our own world, "Very well miss Blair, prove it by going on a date with me."
"What?You?Me?Date?", what the hell I can't even say one sentence. What is wrong with me?
"Yes. You, me, date. Say yes." His eyes never left mine and I saw some amusement in his eyes. "I, uhm, yes?"
Before I could even object to what I just said he intersect, "Great, I'll pick you up at six. Here's my number."
He then walks out.
"What?" Just happened?
I am completely confused. "Oms Juliet! You're going on a date with Mr CEO!"
"I am?" She rolls her eyes while laughing. "Yes Juliet, now come on, we got to get you a new outfit screaming sexy mamma!" Still confused about how I got into this situation she took the opportunity to drag me to the stores.
"I don't even know how to dress."
"Wel ask him dummy! You have his phone number."
After talking some sense into myself, I called him. Almost instantly he picks up. "Ah Miss Blair, miss me already?" Dahm cocky bastart. "Uhm, no, I was just going to ask what I should wear."
"For our date yes, you can dress very formal." He's just rubbing the date in my face now.
"Thanks I'll see you later then." I hear him chuckle over the phone. "Bye Miss Blair."

We've been here over an hour and we are still looking for a dress, I mean I am 34 years old with a 15 soon 16 year old kid and widowed. I'm not exactly dating.
After losing hope and running out of time we come to our last shop. I sent a silent prayer that they have the dress I am looking for.
Scrolling through the dresses I finally found one. "Jenny, I think I found my dress." I take it to the fitting room.



"Oh Juliet, you look absolutely beautiful."
I've never felt so beautiful, other than my wedding day.
"Jen, I'm scared."
She hugs me, "I know sweety, but you have to take a chance. Besides, it is just a date. Now go get out of the dress so we can make you a hot momma!"
She took me to the salon to get a wax manicure and pedicure and to get my hair done. "Jenny, it's just a date. Is this really nessisary?"
"Yes, not for him but for you." I knew she was right. I need to look beautiful for me.

William

"Man, you'll never guess what happened!" I call my friend Daniel. "You've been abducted and needs my saving?"
Seriously, why are we friends?
"What? No you stupid man, I've finally got that woman I told you about to go on a date with me!"
"Great it only took you like how many years?" It's true, I've been chasing after Juliet for a few years now since I first saw her in that art shop. Her blue eyes and brown hair stole my heart and her paintings are absolutely beautiful. I have a painting in each of my rooms as well as the office. My friend Daniel has been joking with me ever since I told him about her. "Ha ha very funny, just wanted to tell you the news, so bye." I hang up before he could crack more jokes. I arrive at the artshop just in time, Jenny opens up. "Sir, your lady awaits."
"Jenny are you sure this looks oky." Juliet walks out from the back busy putting on her earrings. No doubt she does not know that I am here. She comes out in a beautiful dark blue lace dress, she looks absolutely stunning. "You look absolutely beautiful Miss Blair." She jumps when hearing my voice. "Mr Brown, you started me!"
"You startled me with your beauty Miss Blair, so now we are even." She blushes and I smirk.
"Shall we go?" She nodds and I hold my arm out for her so she can link in. When her arms touches mine I feel electrified. No doubt there is something between us. "Miss Blair, let me show you a night you'll never forget. By the end of the night you will call me by my name." She blushes and it makes my heart skip a beat. I will have her. Juliet Blair, you are mine and you don't even know it yet.
