Hollywood Zenith

" Hey handsome." A cheerful voice interrupted his thoughts. He turned to see Anastasiya smiling at him from ear to ear.

He was surprised to find her here but more surprised to see her appearance. Her black hair had turned into to silver white similar to his, they were tied up in little little braids which touched hee cheeks intimately.

She was also wearing all her piercing, bith her ear was inlaid in gold jewellery. One big crystal perched upon the side of her small nose. Even her succulent lips had two of them which were making her whole face shine.

Next were her tattoos, he wasn't hiding them with her make up on the contrary she barely had any make up. A enchanting dark purple dress hugged her extra curvy figure but it was no modest.

Both her arms were open with tiny straps holding her dress together, even her cleavage was showing more than usual. The purple dress had cuts in various places like her stomach and legs making everyone see the full extent of ink on her body.

Samuel knew her body was soft and fluffy without a tinge of muscle, it showed how plump and sexy she was because of the long knee high stockings she was wearing. Her long heels make her legs look more tones and lucious.

" What? Did you like me surprise?" She twirled around exposing everything to him that's when he witnessed her open back. The unique dragon tattoo which covered most of her back was fully exposed. She might just be naked, what's the point of wearing something like this?

He could feel the irritation and jealousy of other men when she approached him but he could care less about them.

" Yes, I am surprised. I am sure everyone could see that black lingerie you are sporting under that skimpy dress." He said with a smile. He didn't understand why he was feeling embarrassed for her. Wasn't he the one who rejected her these past few days? The rush of emotions was something he was not proud off.

Before he could compose himself, Anastasiya started laughing. Her sweet laughter filled their surroundings, it was just as charming, if not more sexy them her seductive voice.

" I can't believe the great Samuel Rothschild is jealous." She grinned but felt overwhelming amount of happiness inside. She was feeling down after getting rejected over and over by him. It was severe to the point that she felt there was something wrong with her.

In all her twenty six year of living, she never had issue attracting the opposite sex. No matter who it was, she could feel their desires plastered on their faces but it was different when she looked into his emerald green eyes.

He might have 'helped' her 'get off' several times but she felt he was obliged to do so not out of love or lust but out of pity and kindness. She really wanted to feel what it would be like to be loved by him, like he did to Nicole.

" You are wrong. I feeling sorry for myself because I feel like they will kill me with their jealous eyes. Can't you see?" He skillfully steered the conversation away from him.

" I can see but who told you I care?"

" Very well. What are you doing here then?"

" I am here to protect your supposed lovers. Raphael told me the deal and I asked few of my associates to keep an eye on them. Also, since you keep rejecting me I figure I could do something about it." She smiled mischievously.

Samuel shuddered hearing her say that, she had been a crazy bitch for as long as he met her. It was easy to know her true colour, whatever her plans were it would not be good for him.

" What are-"

" Before that, why don't you go and say hello to the ladies? They were waiting for you during the event that's when Lucie told them about your other plans. They were sad but understood but you shouldn't keep them waiting for long." Anastasiya didn't want to give it away right now.

" I thought about it but now I think it's not a good idea. Since you were with them, you must know what happened between us. It was not my intention but I hurt them deeply especially Helga."

" No shit sherlock." She said affirmatively. She wasn't the one to sugarcoat words.

After leaving the mansion and saying her goodbyes to Nicole, she picked up her bike and directly rode to one of hwr contacts. They told her about Mayra's address but before she could approach the residence, she was apprehended by Raphael and his men.

Since they were aware of her and she seemd genuine with her words. They told her few things. When she met Mayra and Kayla, she had felt an instant connection to them.

Maybe because of Mayra motherly love when she took care of Elise or Kayla's no nonsense attitude toward life, she got along with them more than she could with her so called 'friends' in the city.

When the conversation turned to Samuel, Anastasiya told them every about their unexpected meeting. They didn't seem to mind neither her tattooed appearance or her brashness.

Mayra listened intently getting the full picture of the events regarding Helga's displeased mood. Anastasiya assured them she would take care of her side of the deal but that's not what bothered them.

Mayra and Kayla also exchanged their side of the story making Anastasiya realised that Samuel wad a bigger flirt that she imagined. It still gnawed on her mind why he wasn't the same with her then?

Mayra helped her see the reason, what happened with Helga must have hurt him deeply. He would never let others see his weak side but Mayra knew it must be a heavy burden in his heart too.

Anastasiya didn't know what to say. In her eyes, he hardly did anything wrong if they couldn't forgive him maybe they shouldn't have gotten to his bed to pull a stunt like that!
