“A-A room?” Furrowing my brows, I asked her. She smiled before replying me back.“Yes, a room.” With assertiveness, she replied this time. I didn’t even know when I banged my hands on the table, fisting them in anger.The female eyed the both of us as she waited for a response. When none of us spoke, she cleared her voice.“We'll pay double if you look for another room at all costs.” Liam uttered. His business man skills was indeed highlighting here, I guess. I didn’t even know how things ran here, but what I was sure of was that I was certainly not going to share a room with him.He made certain hormones rise in me and I couldn’t risk it.“I’m sorry but that’s not possible right now. The room occupants are the blood relations of the owner of this place, that’s why,” she calmly explained. A pained expression ran through the face the instant she said that.The female leaned in with his exposed cleavage, directly in front of him. Liam’s h

“Your spot? Don’t see how this could be your spot. I mean, it doesn’t have your name written on it.” she responded, asking me with a savage look. A scowl was on her face and there was a hint of boldness running through. I couldn’t help but wonder what gave her the balls. My fists tightened and I clenched my teeth in anger.But I didn’t just want to give her the satisfaction she wanted. Thus, I folded my arms, averting my face to Liam’s direction. I could not stand the sight of the both of them together, for some reason.A part of me wanted to disfigure this doll and break her. But I didn’t know how things ran here. Getting into trouble with cops and law wasn’t what I wanted. This was why I was going to ignore her bitchy attitude.“Clearly, you can see the man next to you is my man. If you had any humanity left, your sixth sense would tell you to stay away.” I let out, after a sigh, folding my arms. This was the politest response my mouth could ever give

“I understand now, Liam. I get it all. Don’t come looking for me when things go bad.”These were the words I had uttered to Liam before I left the local hotel.When things go bad.Oh Eleanor, who did make things go bad now?In just a few hours away from Liam, I managed to put myself in this amount of trouble. My mind encrypted this as I sized up Liam, who stood directly in front of me, with a cool expression, overriding his features.“Li- “I called out, but didn’t finish up, bracing myself before speaking again.“Err…Boss Liam...” I corrected, trailing out.He grinned widely at the correction I made, giving a terrific expression. Walking up to me, he took my hands in his, holding it like it was something he adored most in his world.“What happened, red? How did you end up here?” he grimaced.“I-It’s not what you think. I-I would never commit something against the law—”“Shh,” he interrupted, with his index finger

We were able to find a resort with good standards after asking around. If anything, the people of Mexico weren’t bad at all. They were willing to help and held warm, welcoming hearts. Liam and I managed to get separate rooms this time. Since this was a bigger resort, the rooms were more voluminous.A sincere part of me was grateful at the fact that we were now in separate room. This meant privacy to a certain extent and less instances that could lead to arguments. As I retired to bed for the night, I thought of the compromise and the kiss before that. It was like this billionaire had the ability to take my breath with a kiss.And it made me afraid in a million folds.Whatever incidence I witnessed at the hospital today, changed my perception about my celebrity image. Before I had thought of it to be a burden, because my every move was being watched. But now, it felt like more of a responsibility.It was all thanks to Boss Liam, my perspective was c

“Listen to your heart, child. At times it’s your inner voice you should embrace not your instincts on what is wrong or right.”My head couldn’t get rid of the diviner’s words no matter how hard I tried. It came spiraling in my head even without me trying. Ever since that magical moment with her, I had a problem trying to forget her words.I had to deal with remembering her words and Liam’s little gift the day before. I couldn’t bring myself to get rid of the anklet he gifted me. Instead, with a pouty face, I looked at the cute little thing from time to time.“Here is my gift to you, red. Traditionally, it is said to keep one safe. I don’t want you getting in trouble with cops again.”I laughed wondering what the hell that meant. Was this some kind of spiritual asset to keep me safe? If it was, that was thoughtful of him. His gesture was sweet, leaving me with so much curiosity and wonder.My thoughts contained this, even when I washed myself
