Arabella's POV :
“You sure you don’t want me to come with you?” I said to my mother for the umpteenth time with in an hour, clearly worried about my older sick sister.


“Yes honey she will be alright.” my mother reassured me again, “and you should go and buy your bridesmaid dress.” she continued.


“ But mom I-” I tried to reason her, but she cut me off


“ I don’t want to hear anything more from you. You will go and buy a dress for yourself and also for Paulyne and Mary as they are also bridesmaid. And if you don’t then think what will Suzy think? That because of her, her sisters couldn’t brought their dresses and how much bad she will feel by this thought?” Mom asked me.


“No I don’t want her to feel guilty for my actions but I am just worried about her...” I trailed off.
“She is going to be fine and we are here, aren’t we?” Vanessa said coming in between.


“Okay. Okay I will. But inform me if something happens.” I said them.


“Okay.” Mom said kissing my forehead. They got into the car and drove off to the hospital while Rachel had went to the hospital with my sister an hour ago. I went in the boutique reception to my other sister and my best friend. Marissa was seating with Dominic with her, comforting her. My best friend came and hugged me tight whispering it’s going to be alright, I returned her hug. And I spotted Alexander seating a few seats away from Dominic doing something in his phone. He was looking clearly annoyed and, his usual expressionless, blank face. He got up from his seat straightening his attire with his palm.


“ Are we going to seat here all day or do something?” he asked.


“Geez bro! Just calm down.” Dominic said.


“What? You might have a whole day to spend uselessly but I don’t have so much time for some boring stuffs.” He said rudely.


“ If you are that much of bored then you can leave this place now and do other fun activities.” I said clearly irritated.


“Are you ordering me to leave Arabella?” he asked sarcastically. I hate it when he says my full name.


“For your kind information I wasn’t ordering you, I was just giving you a suggestion that you can leave this place, as per your words, you are clearly bored of this stuffs.” I countered him sarcastically emphasising some syllable. I was starting to get enough of his rudeness.


“ And who asked for your suggestions?” he asked.
“ No one did and specially not you. But suggestions are given to the people who are clueless what to do and now that you are . You are clueless about what to do, whether to stay or leave. And I was just helping you to sort things out by giving suggestions.” I answered him pointing my finger toward him. He seemed to be taken aback by my words but quickly masked it and opened his mouth to say something.


“ Hey stop both of you.” Paulyne said coming between us.


“ Yeah stop. Now let’s go and buy this beautiful ladies some dresses.” Dominic said. Marissa glared at him.


“ I mean escort this ladies so that they can buy dresses.” He continued.


“ Yeah let’s go.” I said eyeing Alexander.


Everyone went out of the boutique to the park. Alexander went to his Audi while his driver opened the back door for him.



“Why don’t you come with me Arabella?” Dominic asked.


I looked at Marissa asking approval and she gestured me to go with him.


“Sure.” I said. He gave me a smile and went to retrieve his silver BMW. In the mean while my sister and best friend gave my shoulder a pat and went to Alexander’s car. I got in his car as he pulled in front of me.



“ You know that was awesome.” He said as he took a left turn getting out of the park.


“ What was awesome?” I asked him quite confused.


“ Countering him back.” He said shifting the gear.
“ Well someone had to.” I said laughing, amused by his complement.


“ Yeah but normally no one does as they don’t have any guts, normally. Even not men and forget about women.” He said shrugging off.


“ Why forget about women?” I asked him.


“ Every women throw themselves at him. When I say every I mean every, except for some exceptional, are always attracted to him and also want to bed him. That’s where he earned that playboy image of him. But you, hands off. You are ready to claw his face off if he say anything insulting. And you are not even attracted to him, I ready to throw yourself at him.” He said mocking salute.


“Well he is indeed attractive but there is nothing special to throw myself at him.” I said laughing.
“But still you are the first to counter him.” He said sobering up.


I looked at passing palm trees on the driveway, through the window. “ Then I guess I have to be his very first.” I said looking at him.

Alexander's POV:


What. The. Actual. Fuck. Did happened?


No one ever in their life had countered me like this way. No men ever dare to do that and women, they throw themselves on me. For my physique and money. But this girl. She countered me without any fear.


Yeah I am attracted toward her without any doubt. Arabella. Beautiful name for a beautiful lady. She is indeed beautiful, cute young woman but it is her personality which attracts me the most. She not even once tried to throw herself on me, not even tried to flirt with me just talked like we are casual friends. But I never thought that I would piss her so much off that she would counter me like that. But her countering me back did not hurt or pissed me off, it made me astonished and quite amused. She looked so sexy arguing with me. Her eyes that time was a sight to see, beautiful hazel eyes burning with a yellow fire within them. She is a little tigress with sharpen claws hidden in her golden fur. It’s going to be so much fun seeing her flushing from fierce agitation and anger. It’s going to be so much fun to tease her. And I am going to love every second of it.
