She turns to walk but I pull her back into me. I leave a small sweet kiss on her cheeks and forehead.

« I’ll see you soon, angel. » I say.

I walk out and prepare myself.

« Mr Amoretti, your club opening has been a success. How do you do it ? »

« Well I wanted to make people enjoy their time in this club. There are great facilities and the age group are young adults who come together to have a good time. » I answer.

Every question they asked I answered but my mind was on the hazel haired princess.

When I’m done I head to my car and drive the back. I see her on her phone.

« Sorry they were asking too many questions. » I say apologetically.

« It’s fine. » She says reassuring me and making me ease my worries.

I opened the door for her and saw her smile. Her smile was absolutely beautiful. They way it reached her stunning eyes, how her small dimples revealed themselves and the spark that burned so exquisitely in those turquoise irises.

« Where should I go ? » I ask.

« It’s Clementine estate but you can drop me off 5 minutes away. » She says. Clementine estate was one of the most posh, expensive place to live in the London, hell even the UK. I had bought a property there but I dont use it, Im liking my condominium right now.

I was unsure, I wanted to walk her to her door and kiss her but that obviously couldn’t happen.

« Are you sure ? » I ask her and she nods, we then sit in a comfortable silence.

We were almost near my house a couple minutes away.

« You can stop over here. » she say and I push down on the brakes.

« Thank you. » She says gratefully.

« My pleasure. » I say and take a loose strand of her hair and tuck it back behind her ear. I then kiss Her and run my hand through her soft locks. I squeeze her thighs while my other hand sad on her other thigh.

« Ariella ? » I hear, I look up to see an old man.

She looks down and I look out on the other side.

Looking up she eventually opens the door and hugs the guy while saying « Uncle Tony ! » Okay she knew the guy.

They talk and I can’t help but cough when she says my name is Miguel and that I’m gay. He leaves and she bends down to the window. She looks at me meekly and says « Sorry Miguel ? » I glare at her and chuckle she was too cute.

« I’ll call you. » I say.

« I’ll pick up. » She replies.

She starts walking and I say « Bye angel. »

When she’s no longer in sight I sigh.

This girl was doing things to me, more than a boner.

I drove to work and carried on with the day as usual. I still hadn’t heard back from Luciano.

Oh well, at least I got his stunning daughter.

The night easily came around and I went home. Changing I laid down on my bed and opened my laptop.

I searched ‘Ariella Luciano’ and clicked on her Wikipedia page. She was a Oxford university graduate, she had a degree in psychology, business and child development. It said that she wanted to do the same as her mother. She was the Co founder of L&M charity. The girl in the red dress from last night was Sofia Marin the co founder and her best friend.

She was a part time model. Mainly promoting things and she did a lot of appearances on elite red carpets.

How the hell have I not met her before.

I wanted her, badly.

Ariella.

« Miss Luciano there’s someone on the phone for you. » Meera my new assistant says. My last one flirted with my father in front of mum and it did not end well. Lets just say mum can be protective over dad.

I was at the L&M headquarters. A huge donation came through from an anonymous donor. I started the L&M Foundation with Sofia just before university. I just love helping those in need and so does Sofia. Its been a successful two years ever since. People give mass amounts of money and we give it out equally to other charities as well as keeping some for ourselves to buy resources like food packs, blankets and warm clothes.

« Meera, call me Ariella, anyway do you know who it is ? » I say, I wasn’t expecting a call and if it was personal they could’ve called me on my phone.

« The man just said you will know who he is. » She answers, okay thats weird.

I take the phone from her and put it to my ear.

« Hello this is Ariella Luciano, may I know who is speaking ? » I say politely.

« Why so professional Angel ? » I hear him say. It was Dominic. Why was he calling the company number ?

« Mr Amoretti ? » I say.

« Miss Luciano, I’d like to take you out tonight. Any requests ? » He says almost mockingly.

« What if I’m busy. » I say.

« Angel, we’re going to have dinner at my place, I’ll pick you up near the entrance of Clementine. Oh and if your not at that entrance by eight I’ll come to your door. »

I hear the line go dead, the idiot hung up. It had been a week since our encounter. He was on my mind most of the time and if I’m going to be honest I was waiting for his call.

It was four and I was debating on whether I should go or not.

‘Are you stupid you have to go ! You slept with him and he will tell dad’ I said to myself.

I finished all my work and around five I went home. Dad was cooking for mum, Ava was asleep on Liyana’s lap while she was watching Keeping up with the kardashians. Adam was out and Lorenzo was ‘studying’ with Alysia. Aurora was at a photoshoot modeling for givenchy or something.

We were all busy, well kinda.

In my room was the dress for the charity gala that was on Sunday. It was custom made Zuhair Murad and I loved it. I hung it at then far end of my closet and walked back into my room.

Running the water I pour in my bubble bath and when the tub is full I strip. Leaving my clothes in the laundry basket I enter myself into the steaming hot water. I’d been working all week and this bath was rewarding. Of course showers were nice but for me laying in warm scented water was the best.

It had been an hour till I felt my fingers get rough. I stood up and got the loofah. I scrubbed my body raw and washed my hair. Rinsing myself I get out and tub my feet into the fluffy carpet attempting to dry them.

Using an old T-shirt to dry my hair I then wrap the towel around my body. I walk to my room and mum enters.

« Do you need anything mum ? » I ask, she smiles and sits on my bed.

« Not really I just wanted to know if you’re going out tonight ? » She says.

« Yeah I’m going to dinner with a client » I say lying again. It was leaving a bad taste in my mouth.

« Oh okay have fun. Your dad made Ravioli if you want some there should be some left over if Lorenzo hasn’t finished it all. » She says and leaves the room not before kissing my cheek.

« Oh okay try to save me some. » I say hoping she heard it. When I hear a faint ‘Okay’ I smile knowing I’d still have some ravioli, I loved dad’s ravioli it was so good. Why do I have I have to go out with an idiot instead of having dad’s ravioli in bed watching TV.

‘At least he’s a hot idiot’ I thought.

« What the hell ! » I say shocked at what I was thinking. You know what I’m not even thinking straight. I groan and throw myself on my bed, the soft plump mattress and silky sheets were welcoming me with open arms.

I look to my side to see the little clock on my bedside draw.

‘Ugh I need to get ready.’ I thought and unwillingly got up.

I walked through my closet and settled on cream coloured silk and lace slip. I paired it up with cream heels and a black purse. I brushed my hair out and put it to a side. Rubbing cream into my face I comb my brows and apply mascara and do a short winged eyeliner. Coating my lips with a sheer red I pinch my cheeks for a natural blush. I put Ava’s beaded bracelet back on. I clip one of my pearl bracelets onto my other wrist and put all of my essentials into my purse. Spraying some perfume I head downstairs.

I checked the time to see i had twenty minutes until Dominic would come to pick me up. I decided to have a glass of wine to calm my nerves which were all over the place.
