With a sharp turn, she gazed at him unbelievably. Why would he think so low of her? She thought.

With an eye roll, she turned her back at him and begin to walk away without giving him a response.

Ethan watched her retreating figure, Lesley Ann had always loved him, he knows that. He thought he could play with her feelings cause she's vulnerable.

At the garden that day, she had told him she was still a virgin and she would want him to take her virginity.

He videotaped her words and posted them for familiarity and Fame. Indeed, Lesley Ann is a straight-A student with no form of immoralities in her beautiful self. She had built herself that way because of her mother, who died by murder.

Shaking his thoughts off, he walked back to the darkroom he came from, after what he did to Leslie, his past mistakes came flooding.

Sneaking walking through the back entrance, Lesley Ann bumped into one of her coworkers - Carly Shane, creating a frightening noise from the two teenage girls. It resulted in laughter after they had seen themselves.

While hanging her bag at the normal spot, her eyes glanced at her boss's office and landed on Carly Shane.

Before Carly Shane could utter a word, her boss, Larna Walker had walk in smiling, which was strange to Lesley.

Carly stood behind Lesley, she had seen the unusual friendly behavior of her boss since she arrived, the first thought that slipped her mind was to quit. Larna Walker is never friendly!

"Hi, Lesley. You're so pretty today" She warbled then, held her hand with a soft touch.

With dilated eyes, Lesley looked at Carly with eyes that screams "What the heck is happening?!"

Replying with an" I don't know eyes" She backed away and did her business, never want to be caught up in the weirdness.

Lesley turned back to her smiling boss and smiled, she removed her hand from her insensitive touch and listened to whatever she has to say.

"Your salary has been increased Lesley and? You've been promoted. You don't have to resume after school, you can take two hours rest and close two hours early" She blurted with a smile.

With shock, Lesley rephrases her words in her head. She couldn't believe it, she has been asking Shane for an increment in her salary for about a year now and all she got is a free lunch in the store.

Whatever could have changed her mind? To top it all, She gave her enough time to read and rest.

With a smile, she hugged Larna, what she didn't expect was Larna hugging her back.

"Okay this is weird" She muttered and disengaged in a scurried way.

After work, Lesley Ann left the restaurant, planning to work home again, she waved Carly Shane "Bye" As she was passing the other way.

Overlooking the Roll Royce that was packed In front of her, she walked ahead until the car started to follow her slowly.

At first, she thought it's normal, she took two steps to confirm her thought but it only proved her wrong.

Hell, the car was following her. Can she walk or run faster than a car?! Especially an advanced car!

With sweaty palms and a fast beating heart, she prayed to God to deliver her. Her mother died on the street like this, will she also die? Just like that?!

In order not to piss whoever is following her, she walked slowly, who says she is not scared? but it will be useless to run.

As ignored, the vehicle got to her, driving by her side while she acted like she didn't see it.

Suddenly, the black windscreen was pulled down. Recognizing the face, she turned to the figure and gasped.

He was not scary, she was just relieved that it's him. Never had she thought she'll be glad to see that mysterious guy again?

"Miss me?" He uttered and smirk, stepping out of the car to her. She stopped and watched the guy caress her cheeks, with a gentle touch, he led her to his fancy car.

"I... I don't know your name?" She announced, looking into space.

The guy with a smirk she never thing to avoid his voice, turned to her and say; "You don't know your boyfriend's name?"

"No, I.. I.. "

"Riven Newman" impeded

"Oh nice, mine is..."

"Lesley Ann, I know" he smirked again, knowing he had interrupted her again.

She glanced at his beautiful face and looked away.

"Do you like the new development in your workplace? Or you want more?" He implored. She glanced at him.

She thought she had gained that by her handwork but again, Larner didn't seem like someone who would profit you over hard work.

"You did that.. for me?" She questioned looking at his handsome face. The night moon shone over his beautiful face and he suddenly looked like a god.

"Yes, you're my girlfriend after all" He commented with a smirk yet again.

"Oh, but how did you convince Larner to be that nice? Did you give her money?" She asked.

"No, I mandated her to. You know honey, no one ever disobeys me, you should count yourself lucky for having me" He sprouts, the way he talked made her quiver under her purple sweater.

The man was indeed mysterious, everything about him is, the way he talks, attitude, and his laughter. Worse, his facial expression isn't human, he is way cute and the aura he carries is different.

"Why did you agree with me then? With your personality, I don't think you will accept me for nothing " She picked her word slowly and looked at Noah, wanting to see his reaction.

Surprisingly, Noah smiled and looked at her; "My dear, there is a reason to everything but mine? I won't tell you now. Just play alone, I'll protect you, give you everything you want. I'll be the perfect boyfriend " He uttered scaring Lesley Ann again.

Was she supposed to be happy or scared. Maybe she should just run away!
