Before I had to receive everything I ever wanted, I had to be tested - My ability to love beyond anything and everything else , my loyalty and strength had to be tested , also my will to forgive and let go of the things that tore me apart .

I had to become a shell of what I used to be , in order to blossom into something much more greater . I needed to know what it felt like to lose yourself . I needed to hate to the fullest , in order to know how to love without boarders and boundaries . I needed to be blind in order to see but mostly I needed to lose everything in order to gain the whole world - Did I lose ?

My life was perfect before him , before I inhaled his intoxicating scent , before his Adonis face was forever engraved on my mind . I was innocent before HIM . But with him , I had to stare at death face to face , experience loss and pain but I've never felt more alive .

Running late for my very first business pitch was certainly not a good way to start a career as a business woman. This pitch meant more to me than my whole life , a pitch which I had to beg for to happen . This was certainly not a good way to make first impressions  . If anything , this was a sign of a bad omen , a sign of all the wrong things that were about to happen in my life .

The traffic had to make matters worse , I was now an hour late . Can't this day get any worse ?

There was a saying that said "be careful of what you wish for , you might just get it , "

I finally arrived at Vance & Partners Industries . Rushing at the parking lot he ran into me .

He was tall , at about 6'1 , he bulldozed my 5'4 height and made me feel shorter than I usually did.

I fell down flat on my butt , hitting the cold , hard concrete floor , twisting my ankle in the process , breaking my newly bought  stilettos . I had just bought  them for this pitch and they weren't cheap either . I slowly  tried to sit up , trying to stand but only to fall again on my now broken shoes . I tried to stand again , only this time more slower . I brushed over my skirt lightly only to find that it looked like it was wrinkled all over .

He was so close I could smell the mixture of cologne and aftershave he was wearing .

I should be fuming but I was lost in this tall Demi God who looked like he fell from the heavens . I stared at him in awestruck , for a minute I forgot how to breathe . I took my time taking in his appearance .

Black Italian shoes, the expensive kind , grey Armani pants , black shirt with a grey tie and matching Armani jacket , strong masculine arms , hard defined chest imprinted from his shirt , strong perfect jawline , full dark lips. His face was symmetrical . Half of his face covered in beard , not the untidy kind but the clean , freshly shaved one , he had a perfectly sculptured nose with small dark eyes that looked like they held so many secrets. Secrets I found myself wanting to uncover. He looked like he just stepped out of a Vogue magazine .

Looking this good should be a crime , the kind of men we read about in novels , the ones' who'd bring heaven right into your palms but leave with your heart in their hands , only this wasn't a novel , he was standing right in front of me.

I tried averting my eyes from his lips but it was impossible to do so since he kept brushing over his lower lip with his tongue .

For a moment , I wished I was his lower lip .

He had to be important from the way his presence made me feel . It's like the temperature went from cold to global warming hot . Some people were born with lucky genes .
