Chapter 6 His cousin

"Alright, it's all my fault, I am sorry," he apologized, not wanting to continue to argue with her. Ethan looked at her with an unexplainable desire in his eyes. "Did the dress fit you?" He asked in a hoarse tone.

"Yes it did," she replied in a shaky voice. The closeness between their bodies, made her fidget.

"Agnes?" He called out her name once more, then he bent down and took control of her lips. The way he kisses was kind of confusing, at a point the kiss was calm and looked like it was driven by passion. At one point the kiss became fierce, and one could clearly tell it was driven by pure lust. The kiss would have lasted for a long time but Agnes pushed him away from her before crazy things could happen. Ethan's senses fully flooded back into him and then he realized he had just made a huge mistake. "I'm sorry Agnes, I didn't mean to kiss you, I just can't tell what came over me."

"I understand and I forgive you please, go down and wait for me, I will join you soon."

"Ok," he said, the he walked out of the room, with his head facing downward.

At least, Agnes sending him away from her, would give him enough to time to calm his little brother down. Ethan waited for her in the sitting room. Funny how Agnes's soon turned into a whole thirty minutes.

Finally she walked down the stairs looking so effortlessly beautiful. The odour of her perfume filled the room as she stepped in. Ethan stared at the beautiful creature walking towards him blankly. The gown exposed nearly half of her breast, there was a long slit in the gown that exposed her thigh. Her hips swung from side to side as she walked. There were small, circular, sizeable openings around the waist of the gown, she was ablaze with shiny diamonds. Her look had an overpowering effect and her movement seductive flashes that could dazzle anyone.

She saw the way Ethan was staring at her and it made her feel quite uneasy.

"We are getting late for the party," Agnes spoke up, in order to bring him back from his reverie.

"Uhh, yes you are right," he said to her. "Ladies first," he added, gesturing his hands towards the door.

She smiled at him, then walked out, he followed hurriedly behind her. He rushed and opened the door for her. "Stop being too much of a gentleman," Agnes said to him, then climbed into the car.

"Ok ma'am," Ethan replied and laughed.

He got into his Rolls Royce, which was nearly as big as a battle ship and drove off.

When they arrived at the place of event, Agnes clung to Ethan for support. Seeing how big the event was, her knees felt weak all of a sudden. She felt as if she had been caught up in some Hollywood epic when the celebrant walked down the red carpeted steps to welcome both Ethan and her. "And who is this damsel beside you?" Mr Jones, the celebrant asked Ethan, staring at Agnes's body with lustful eyes.

"This damsel here is my woman, so you had better get take your eyes off of her," Ethan said to him in a much pleasant tone, even he had wanted to say that sentence to him in a more violent tone.

He wrapped his hands around Agnes's waist in a possessive way, in order to send the message to Jones clearly.

Why he became this possessive wasn't quite understandable or was he feeling jealous? Many other men had shamelessly drooled over Agnes and Ethan had noticed it. Ethan was annoyed or I would rather say angered. He wrapped his hand on Agnes's waist all through the party, he was not going to let her off his side.

Meanwhile Ethan did not have any idea that what he was doing to Agnes was tormenting her badly.. His hands on her waist made her sweat profusely.. It was finally time for a gender opposite dance.

He did not plan on asking Agnes to dance with him because he knew that definitely she would reject it but when he was a guy, not far from his age approaching Agnes, his eyes darkened.

"Hi, would you love to dance with me?" Asked the other guy.

"No, I don't dance," she replied.

"You need not worry, I will guide you through.." he assured her and grabbed her by the waist

"She said she doesn't want to or are you deaf," Ethan interrupted. He had been watching the whole scene from a corner and it really angered him.

"I was not talking to you cousin, so you better stay out of this," the other guy warned.

"Never in your life should you ever call me that," Ethan retorted.

"Cousin," she muttered. She immediately remembered Ethan saying something about not liking him. She knew having anything to do with Ethan's cousin would make him angry, so she spoke up before anything would go wrong.

"Please leave from here, I and Ethan are together." She told him in a warning tone.

"Ohh, I see," Marcus, Ethan's cousin replied.

"I will leave you for now but we will still see each other," he added, then he took her hand and placed a soft kiss at the back of her palm, then he left. Ethan wanted to rush after him and push him but he held back himself.

Ethan groaned in anger, "I think it is time for me to get you home," he spoke to her but with eyes still focused on the direction Marcus had taken.

"Alright. I don't feel so good too." She replied.

Ethan led her to the car and they left immediately.

When he reached her place, she came down from the car. "Would you like to come in and have a drink with me?" She asked him.

Ethan paused for a moment, then he answered, "yeah, sure I would love to."

Agnes nodded and walked to the house while Ethan followed behind.
