Chapter 1

He  stared out o the window, lost deep in his precious thoughts about his precious woman. His elbow rested on  the window side of his metal black mercedes benz and his chin a bit lifted by his fingers.  His eyes were fixed on a mere spot as he thought about the woman he was going to see in minutes after two weeks. a small smile played on his lips as his brain emerged to her image.
Two months, just two months and she will be all his'. The woman he loved since he came to realize what love was, the woman he loved secretly and never thought that something like love could take place in his heart that he merely knew was ever capable of any feelings. But his best friend since high school molded his heart in to the shape she wanted and now only love was the  thing he had in his once cold heart.
"sir, we're here" Nicolas Grammar, his driver spoke and brought him out of his thoughts and he finally realized that he was going to see the girl he had missed like craziness in past two weeks. If he could, he would hold her in his arms every second of his life but business was not the thing he took lightly. Being the top business man of America and Spain came out with consequences.
And to take the position of CEO was his top priority now. He couldn't work as CFO all his life but he wanted to show his brother Aljendró  Vincenté  that he was capable of replacing him but Aljendro wouldn't risk his business by handling it over to a person who just graduated from Harvard university so it was his compulsion  to look after the company in Spain because becoming CEO of  'forces corps' was not easy at all.
Back to present he nodded at his driver who opened the door for him. He buttoned up his black Armani tuxedo's  jacket and walked towards the building  with charisma. Everyone in the lobby stared at the new greek god entering the building like he owned the world.
"may....may I help you sir?" the receptionist asked, stammering due to the presence of an extremely gorgeous piece of human being in front of her. Her eyes never leaving his fine body.
"yes please, may I know if Estelle Reynold is in her apartment?" he asked casually not sparing a glance at the poor receptionist.He would have walked straight in to her apartment but he wasn't sure if she was there or not. The flight from Spain had tired him and he couldn't call her to ask where she was.
"yes...s-she just went out" she said breathing like the room became hot due to a hot godly man's present.
He scowled and sighed closing his eyes. He had waited impatiently to see her but now he had no idea  where she was or  when she would return. He nodded at the receptionist and took out his sleek slim phone from his chest pocket ignoring the gasps of women passing by him and glaring at him like he was a piece of flesh being attacked by wolves.
He scrolled through his numbers when he heard a shriek hitting his ears like thousand knives. He instantly looked up to see a woman standing in front of him horrified, with her shoulders squeezed and her eyes wide as sauces.
                                                                              **
Estelle couldn't believe what she was seeing in front of her. She forgot to breath  and her hands covered her opened mouth. She stared at Black piercing eyes staring at her and a huge exciting grin of man's face. the door opening told her where she was and a gasp left her mouth that she had been holding for a quiet long time.
She suppressed the flutter of her heart and dropped bags on the ground speeding towards the man in front of her.
"Lucas. . ." she screamed with ecstasy  jumping in to his arms and almost crashing herself. She wrapped her arms around his neck making him chuckle lightly. He embraced her back tightly inhaling her scent that he had missed insanely. "I missed you so much. . . " she giggled excitedly as he lifted her off the floor and swirled her around.
people in lobby watched them like they were hero and heroine of a new movie being shot at the time being but both of them were oblivious to surrounding.
"I missed you too, where you have been?" he asked as they pulled back a little just to see each other.
"I went to shopping...oh my god you're back" she laughed in excitement and he kissed her mouth closing his eyes. she kissed him back sweetly but she could not contain her excitement anymore and pulled back to giggle..
"you hungry?"
he asked her smiling sweetly, she nodded "lets go out" he tilted his head, brushing her jaw with his thumb.
"okay. . . oh my god I dropped those" she rolled her eyes "let me just put them in my room then I'll be back, just one minute" she hurried out of his arms and ran towards the bags she just dropped on the floor.
He sighed, he couldn't wait anymore. He needed to be with her...she ran towards the elevator and pressed the button to her floor. She opened the door of her apartment just to throw the bags inside no matter where they landed and ran back towards the lift.
She hurried towards her fiancée  and grinned tangling her hand around his arm. He smiled and walked outside
"Nicolas, I got it" he took the keys from his drivers hand and  sat inside driver's seat after opening door for her. The driver just nodded and let them go.
"how was it? the visit to Spain?' she asked him extremely happy that he had surprised her with the best thing.
"I guess its visit to America not Spain" he said with humor lacing through his voice. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes at him.
"where are we going?'she asked again.
"to the baine's..you love that place right?" he asked looking at her for a second and then returning his eyes back to road.
"right, did you just arrive?"she said wanting to know if he had already met his brother, Aljendro Vincenté
"Yeah! I directly came to you. . . Aljendro can wait"  he smiled making her blush.
                                                                              ***
"You wanna come with me? I just don't wanna make you uncomfortable" He said putting the piece of chicken in his mouth with the help of fork with delicacy.
"no! Aljendro is a friend and I don't think I'll be uncomfortable besides I wanna spend time with you" she said smiling widely at him but he only focused on one word in her whole talk that was 'friend'
"friend?" he raised an eyebrow at him, tilting his head. He didn't like the idea of his fiancée being friends with his brother, not like he didn't trust her or his brother but he didn't like any man so close to her.
"yes, he is a nice guy. I wonder why don't you work here with him? in that way you won't have to leave for weeks" she pouted. He wanted reach out and bite that pout formed by her lips but he remained focused on the topic.
he let out a sigh and closed his eyes.

"last time I checked you barely talked to him" he said focusing on his food, suddenly changing s tone from sweet to irritated.

"Lucas! he is just a friend. Why do you always act like this. Its not like you don't have any female friends"

She snapped, irritated by his arrogance and over possessiveness. Lucas stared at her for a moment as she dug in food like her life depended on it and ignored him. He sighed and shook his head.

"fine! I am sorry" he said. Only Estelle was the person who would hear such words from him. He never said sorry to anyone except her and he realized that he was being hypocrite. He also had a lot of female companions.

They ate in silence for some time before he looked at her hands.

"where is your ring querido?" he asked becoming angry that she had taken her ring off.

"oh! its in my bag" she smiled sensing his anger and became guilty because she knew he wouldn't like if she wasn't wearing his ring.

"I did not give it to you to keep it in your bag Estelle. I want you to wear it, all the time."

he said in cool but harsh tone glaring at her as she became uncomfortable. he only called her by her name when he was serious or angry.

"Lucas! its so expensive and I do not want to lose it. And its loose on my finger so I'm afraid I'll lose it"

she said but he wasn't convinced. He wanted to grab her hand and put that damned ring on her finger and glue it. He gritted his teeth trying to remain calm.

"I did not give it to you to hide it from culprits. I want you to wear it all the time. Its a sign that you are mine Estelle. I don't care if its loose or not you just have to wear that damn thing" he said coldly, trying not to wreck her neck.

"fine I'll wear it but please do not ruin the mood. I want to spend time with you today and I can't do that if you act like this" she sighed annoyed and opened her bag, taking out the huge diamond ring to slip it in her finger. He watched her actions. "see!" she lifted her hand and smiled at him.

He looked at her sternly before breaking a small smile on his lips.
