Chapter 3: Fluttering heart

“Are you okay?” He demanded, his hand outstretched and she nodded, mouth agape as she drooled.

His face was far from what she had imagined, his handsomeness had taken her breath away.

His eyes held secrets, wisdom and sexiness.

His lips were alluring and tempting, his nose and jaw well chiseled but his cold face even better.

He looked like an oil painting in the bright sun

Whosoever it was that crafted his face must have done the best job ever... How could one person be breathlessly handsome?

Never in all her life have she come across any man that would send tingles down her spine, make her heart race thrice as fast, make her cheeks turn red.

She was lost in her world of fantasy... She was lovestruck... If he asks for her life she was willing to lay it down right there for him.

He chuckled, making her head spin... even his sound was enough to make her stomach churn... How could this kind of god exist?...

“Are you gonna stand up or not?” He demanded, glaring at her with irritation, his jaw was clenched and he shot her a murderous look, even when angry he looked cute...

“Cute baby...” She heard herself say, pulling his soft cheeks gently, damn! They made her blood race.

He pushed her hand away, and she became aware of her environment.... Damn! She was heading to the market.

She stood up, dusting her body while he looked at her closely.

“Try to take notice of your environment... stop getting carried away all the time, next time I won't save you...” He muttered, his eyes sweeping one gaze at her before he began walking.

She followed him immediately, not wanting to be far away from her handsome clone.

“Wait, you were watching from the beginning?” She demanded, enraged and shocked.

“Heard everything you said” A voice erupted from his chest and she hit his tall shoulders angrily.

“What the hell! You were there, watching me try to seduce those ugly men and you didn’t even try to help me!” She yelled and he held her hand, drawing her to himself roughly.

She hit his hard broad chest, the contact making shocks spread round her body... She couldn’t remember what she was saying...

He bent his head, lips almost touching hers and she swallowed, waiting to have a taste of his honey-like lips when he moved to her ears.

“You would be a terrible pornstar that’s why I saved those men, they wouldn’t have to go through the stress of fucking a novice like you” He muttered icily, releasing her roughly she almost fell but he held her waist.

Their faces were inches apart, her head was covered with mist and she closed her eyes slowly, only to find her butt hitting the hard ground.

He was handsome but far from nice.

Why would he hold her waist and almost kiss her if he wanted her to fall in the first place?

“You have to take your words back because, I’m a very good fucker... pornstar.. lover! Anything you choose, I’m very good at sex and I bet you just couldn’t stand them having what you can’t have that’s why you decided to save me” She replied proudly walking past him and he drew her back.

He traced his finger around her lips, making her legs weak and her brain misty.

She licked his finger, watching him closely and he used another finger to smack her head, making Brielle cry out in agony.

“You get carried away easily, how are you able to stay alive till now? Do you have any other hobbies apart from getting in trouble and kissing strangers?” He mocked coldly and she bowed my head with shame.

Never has she met someone as obnoxious and stupid as him.

“Why are you following me?” She demanded when she got to the market and noticed he was still behind her.

“I’m less busy today, I know this is a great honor and you’ll never be able to come across something as huge as this but I’m willing to be your guardian angel for a few hours” He muttered, pride dripping in his voice.

“You can go... I don’t need you” She replied, turning sharply and she bumped into a woman carrying a few crates of eggs.

The eggs fell from her hands, touching her clothes before breaking on the floor...

Damn! She was so dead... She was dead...

The woman held onto her clothes immediately, not giving her the chance to do anything.

“You can be clumsy and stupid at the same time, you shouldn’t be allowed to roam the streets” He mocked and Brielle’s eyes became wet with tears.

How was she gonna pay for all these? Eleanor would never agree to pay and even if she did, Brielle will suffer and bear the consequences.

Even her father wouldn’t be able to save her from her... Should she run into the incoming car... if she died, then everything would end…

He squinted his eyes.

“Are you crazy? How would you think of killing yourself just because of eggs?!” Her clone scolded and she noticed her gaze was focused on the road.

She smiled... her sexy, cold, handsome, foul-mouthed clone... She was surely gonna miss him... She wished she could kiss his lips for the last time before exiting this world.

Her thoughts were interrupted when a resounding slap touched her cheek, all thoughts left her head and the sting made her eyes water.

“How much is all these?” He demanded calmly and the fierce looking woman handed him a bill from the store.

She couldn’t see clearly because of her water-filled eyes and the star-seeing slap but she knew it was expensive when he smirked.

She was surely in a deep mess.

He brought out a new bundle of money, had the new note scent, and handed everything to her... What! Everything...

What baffled Brielle was that the woman collected it joyfully and released her dress.

“What! No way!”

There is no way she was gonna let her go with all that money after she was given that resounding slap.

Brielle held her arm tightly, hooking it with hers and she struggled, trying to break free.

“There’s no way I’m letting you go with all this money, we must split it” She let out and her clone raised his brows.

“The money is mine and I’m giving it to her” He countered, brushing his hands around her arms which weakened her instantly and the woman broke free, calling Brielle a witch as she ran off.

“Why would you give her everything! Do you know how much that is? I’m clumsy but not dumb like you” She blasted and he laughed.

“Shouldn’t you think of how you would pay me back?” His brows rose.

“Pay you back? I never asked you to foot my bills, you should have just left me!”

“Leave you to die? That's a great idea, you can do that now” He replied, pushing her to the road she screamed, watching a car come at her at full speed and give way to unconsciousness.
