The fortune's takeover

Chapter-4: The date.

I stand in front of the entrance gate of the hotel where he is staying. It's 10:55 in the morning. I am glad I made it early. I remember how Jenny nearly jumped off the couch when I told her about what he messaged me yesterday.
"Damn Ken believe me I think he likes you!!" Jenny said when I told her about all this.
But I don't think so....I mean he and i are two different people. This can't happen. People would call me gold digger which I am obviously not!
I enter inside the hotel and there is a young man I guess in his early tweneties who greets me with a grin,"Good morning miss."
"Morning" I say with a bright smile on my face.
I am wearing one of Jenny's dress a pastel pink colored dress with a metallic lustre. It's beautiful just like Jenny.
"Umm.. do you know where Mr.brown is?" I ask rather too politely I think my voice is barely audible.
To which he replies politely,"miss tell me your name please."
"Err...Kendall Lewis."
"Mam this way" he leads me to what I assume is a restaurant then he leads me further to a more private room.
And there he is.... I start panting all of a sudden. Shit why do I feel like this when I am around him and the memories from my interview fills my brain. Holy fuck! I gape at him.
"Good morning miss Lewis" he addresses me politely and rather too mildly. He is dressed in a black linen shirt and navy pants. He looks so hot. He takes my breath away.
I try to get normal.
"Morning Mr.Brown" i say.
"Have a seat please"
"Thanks"
"How was the shifting?"
What should I reply to this now?!I don't know....
"It was...err...good...tiring maybe"
"Ohh...okay"
To which I nod.
"You are....beautiful" he says eyeing me speculatively.
"Gosh! Thanks" I reply with a hesitant giggle.
" I like when you giggle you look like you are in your early teenage" he laughs
Fuck. What does he mean by this. I need the sudden urge to roll my eyes but I didn't.
"Mr.Brown...what about the photoshoot?"
"Call me Aden"
Oh... I hesitate but...eventually.
"Aden"
"I like the sound of it" he says mildly.
"You have been selected for the interview and I will message you the details myself." He adds.
"Thank you so much I never expected I would be selected.." I gaze at him shyly.
"Why did you think like that?" He asks
"I mean...just look at me how pale I am and I have zero confidence let me tell you because I don't want you to scowl at me at the photoshoot time.
After a pause he says,
"I will never scowl at you Kendall and you are beautiful and I know you don't believe in yourself." He says.
After few minutes he says "Kendall...i..I am difficult,very.I hope you know what your getting into.I am saying this for your sake only"
What the fuck! What's this? Is he threatening me or maybe he is asking me to steer clear of him.
After this we have our dinner in utter silence. He orders white sauce pasta with ginger bread and steak for us.
After having the dinner i quickly glance at my watch shit it's late. It's nearly 2 I should better leave afterall I need to search my job too.
I get up from my chair and he stands too.
"What?!" He asks
"Aden.. I need to search myself a job so I need to go now. Thanks for the dinner. It was great."
"You need a job!?" He says
"Err...yes" I respond
"Okay I will take note of it." He says as a smile plays on his face.
Take note of it what does this mean now? He is so confusing. But he seems to be so comfortable and at an ease with himself unlike me. Whoa this is what attracts me.
"Okay bye and thanks again" I say
"I will message you the details by tomorrow."
"Thanks again." I leave immediately as I say.

And soon I am out of this... Out of his stare. He drives me crazy. Really crazy.
He just asked me to mind my steps. Was he asking me to steer clear of him? I don't know.
Oh Aden,it's as if I m Bewitched by him. Holy hell it's like i am falling for him. no!!!
I take a cab to our apartment.
Jenny is waiting for me on the couch.
"Heyyyyyy" she mouths.
Oh please I don't wanna give her any details. I am already very frustrated.
Fuck it!
"Jenny I...err I am tired can I talk to you later about this?" I asks apologetically.
"Is everything okay?" She asks with concern visible in her eyes. I will have to pretend I don't have any other option.
"Yes of course. He was great and I really enjoyed it." I mouth at her.
"What was he like?" She says.
No more investigations please!
"He was good...hot...intimidating.. sexy as hell" before I could even register what I said it's out of my mouth. Fuck!
Jenny stares at me with surprised.
"Whoa! Someone has succeeded in capturing my ken's heart." She finished with a laugh.
"Err.. no i..I don't like him. It's just that he was hot nothing else there is nothing between us. And he doesn't like me too." I say sadly.
"Hey look, are you falling for this man?" She says with concern vivid in her voice.
"Jenny can we please talk about this later. I mean it's just I don't wanna talk about it now please please" I insist.
"Okay..okay but..I was just making sure whether you're fine or not I am sorry if I.... Just u know." She says not looking into my eyes.
"Oh Jenny it's not what you think it is. It's just he is different and he kinda warned me that i must be knowing what I am getting myself into. It's just this and I love you. Sorry if I hurted you or your feeling." I say wryly.

I am in my bedroom, new bedroom staring at the ceiling lots of things has happened today. What the fuck was I even thinking. His words haunt me.
No!your life is already very fucked up please don't mess it anymore. My subconscious snarls at me. And first time I think she is for sure right.

It's quarter past two the next day. I am using Jenny's laptop. She is out for her job Interview. I am alone and searching for a job here in town.
The door flick open and I assume that it's Jenny so I don't glance up untill I hear his voice. He coughs. And I glance up. Fuck what is he doing here at this point of time without any prior information. I mean shit I am dressed in pink V-neck T-shirt with white fluffy shorts. My hair's are up in a messy bun with tendrils of my hair hanging down my face. I am even wearing my eyeglasses. I don't wear glasses outside I prefer using contact lenses. And he is decently dressed in a black linen shirt and pale blue pants.
I stare at him open mouthed and he is staring at me Intently, as if he is contented by my sight. Shit what am I even thinking and why the hell is he here. No!
"What are you doing here?" I say goofily.
He hesitates and then smiles.
"I was just here to see you." He says and then adds" I was missing you."
"Missing me?!" I say with surprise visible in my voice.
"Er...yes" he says and reach where I am sitting and sits on the corner of my small bed.
"Is this your room?" He says scrutinizing a family picture of mine which was clicked when i was in my teenage.
"And is this your family?" He says pointing towards the family photo.
"Yes.. this is the room Jenny has given me to live in her apartment and this is my family picture." I say.
"You look beautiful as always just like your mom." He says watching the photo intently.
"Ahem... Thank you Mr.Brown."
"Call me Aden." He says with a serious expression on his face.
The afternoon passed by soon and I suddenly feel the urge to eat something.
"Aden would you like to eat something. I am famished." I say
"Yes of course if you insist." He says eyeing me speculatively. His gaze...oh my is for sure bone melting. I flush.
"You look adorable when you flush." He says with a slight laugh.
Oh....
"I will grab something for lunch."
I say as I get out of the room. There one of his body guard is standing near the living room couch. He nods in my direction and u respond with a slight smile on my face. I don't even know his name.
I get inside the kitchen and... Shit there is nothing to eat here we were supposed to get to the market today. But there must be some packed food as Jenny said yesterday.
Aden heads out of his room too a little smile playing on his face.
"I have nothing to eat I mean we shifted yesterday and the cupboards are empty. Would you mind eating packed food." I say rather shyly.
"Yes.. I won't mind Kendall."
"Call me Ken please."
" Why? You have got such a beautiful name why to use the nickname." He says. Oh...point to be noted. Okay
I smile.
I am stirring friend vegetables in the pan slightly and I know Aden is standing beside me gazing at me. He is slightly playing with a tendril of my hair which has just escaped from my bun. Oh my he is sitting very close.
I can feel his warmth.
Suddenly he sign his bodyguard to get out if the house. Why?
I give him a puzzled reaction and he slowly turns the stove off and pulls my chin to meet his gaze. Whoa.
He leans down his eyes meeting mine and suddenly my heart is palpating.
Shit it's like my heart is leaping Into my mouth. And I am soon breathless.
With much passion than needed his lips are invading my mouth. Holy fuck! He is kissing me. His tounge invading my mouth stroking my tongue. I am breathless and his fingers travels down my face and cups my chin.
Suddenly he pulls out of my mouth suddenly and is staring at me breathlessly.
My heart is stone cold. I am stone cold. Did he just kiss me?!
"You are beautiful." He says
I just keep staring at him. Wow. His sight is priceless. I would do anything to meet him to...be with him forever.
"But we can't do this I am sorry" he says and suddenly scoots out of the apartment.
Leaving me sitting on the kitchen platform like that. Tears rolling down my face. Shit. Did he just do that. Why was he so rude and why was he ever here and why was he.... What the fuck! I roll my eyes and keeps my head in my hands. Tears rolling down my cheek and a sob escapes.
