Unattractive Geek to Stud.

The latest model of a Black BMW sports car sped down the city before finally stopping in front of a grand building. 

Immediately the men outside— who looked more to be bodyguards and was formally dressed in black suits— saw her come down from her car, they bowed before hiding their faces.

No one dared to spare a second glance at her. Since no one actually knew what might provoke her into dealing with them.

Lisa's eyes were dark, very dark. And the black liner she used made it look even scarier. Since she was not at 'work', she appeared as her real self.

She wore a black leather jacket and skinny leather pants that matched with a black ankle length boot.

Everything she wore from her head to toes were all Black.

Her hair was let loose and moved about as she took slow steps inside the building.

Anyone who had seen her leaving Tom's house that morning, would not believe she was the same person they were seeing right now. Everything about her including her aura was changed completely.

It was a house, but the mansion looked like a five-star hotel.

As she kept walking, she saw a lot of heavily built and armed men guarding each spots she passed but none of them spared her a second glance after bowing to greet her.

After taking a whole lot of turns, stairs, and the elevator, she stopped in front of a door, punched a few buttons beside the door's knob on the wall, and the numbers disappeared to show reveal something like a computer's screen.

She placed her thumb there and after it registered her thumb print, she had to go through another test which got her bent over for the computer to analyze her eyes.

She waited till it rapidly counted to a hundred percent before she heard the bots voice say "Please enter." followed by the sound of the door opening.

"I heard Three is coming today." She heard a man say to someone immediately she got to the door of a room she was about entering.

"Heard so too. Have any idea what she's been up to lately?" Another Man asked.

"Not at all. But I am sure it's going to be a really tough one as usual." 

The other man sneered and began to speak in an angry tone.

"It doesn't matter if she takes up the most difficult of missions. She won't lead us one day" The said matter of factly. 

"Why? But she seems capable. You've seen what she is capable of doing."

This time, it was another man who spoke up.

"She is a woman. Are you both stupid? How can a woman lead this sect?" He spat on the floor. "I'd rather die than be under her. Well— I don't mind being under her skirt" He began to chuckle incessantly. 

Out of nowhere, he felt a dagger suddenly pierce the left side of his chest and his eyes shot wide opened. He hadn't even had the chance to dodge even if he was good at it.

The others were shocked and were immediately. They all took up a fighting stance to search for the intruder.

How did someone get in here without the alarm going off?  They wondered.

"And death you shall receive" They all heard the familiar calm voice before she appeared inside the room.

At this point, the man was already wailing in pain on the floor. 

Lisa's jaws were clenched tightly as she approached him. The others didn't wait to be told before they quickly bowed and stepped out of her way.

Lisa squatted in front of him and held up his chin firmly so he would look at her dark eyes.

"You feel that pain?" She waited for him to say something but all that came out was a groan.

"I have experienced worse pain. And I didn't wail like a little pussy just like you're doing right now." She mocked.

"If you cannot even withstand this kind of pain, do you think you're even fit to be under me?"

"—Or my skirt?" She added before standing up to look at the others who dropped their heads fearfully. 

"Do not worry. He won't die." As she turned to leave, she stopped to add. "If you save him in five minutes" 

With that said, she walked out of there with a dark expression on her face as the others hurried to attend to their partner.

           **********

Immediately Tom arrived at the restaurant, he saw a familiar figure sitting at the far corner by the window. For a moment, he paused to stare at her.

It was true. Amanda was really back.

Amanda Park had been his high school crush. No day went by that he didn't see her in his dream or steal glances at her in school. 

But at that time, his father wasn't the 'Mr Hwang' of today. Then, his father was only a business man who was still trying to get to the top but her father was what people called a 'Tycoon'. So the gap between them was very wide back then.

It was quite ironic how everything changed in just a couple of years.

And that included his looks.

During his highschool days, one would think he had been the 'handsome stud' every girl wanted but back then, he had been the exact opposite of how he was now.

It was safe to call him a geek instead of simply saying he was the unattractive student who focused on his study.

At first, he hadn't dreamt of ever liking a girl like Amanda Park until one day; her parents had asked for the brightest kid in class to be their daughter's tutor with the belief that she would catch up quickly if she was being taught by a classmate. 

And that was where he came into the picture.

And he hadn't bothered to tell his parents about it so they thought he was always stating in school for extramural classes.

He became her tutor and devoted his entire time to liking her.

She had a pretty soul and had not looked down on him like he had expected. It made him gather his wits and made up his mind to tell her about his feelings for her.

But after confessing to her, she had laughed it off and called him 'cute' while pinching his cheeks.

It had devastated the hell out of him. And whenever he tried to advise himself to stop likening her, she would suddenly start hanging around him and one day, she went as far as kissing him.

And that had had been his first ever kiss.

But she still hadn't wanted him.

He suddenly broke out of his reverie when he saw her turn. Once she saw him standing there, she smiled and raised a hand to wave for him to come closer.

Amanda was one hell of a beauty. She had the right figures in places, she was tall, model-like, had short black hair that formed a Bob under her jaw bone.

She had the most perfect everything one could think of in a woman. And as he sat down opposite her, he noticed she didn't change a bit even after four years— that was the last time he saw her. She still looked 23 even though she was 27 now.

Four years ago, things had almost gotten steamy between them one night before she received a call that her father was in the hospital.

A week later, the man died. Apparently, he had been too busy working so much to the point where he neglected his health till the cancer cells spread through his body.

"I am truly surprised to see you, believe me! Four years and no calls? Just wow!" He exclaimed after he sat opposite her. 

Amanda giggled and chose to ignore his accusing words.

"You look really— hot" She said with a flirty smile as her eyes began to scan his body in the T-shirt and denim he wore. He was still as simple as ever.

"You don't look bad yourself." He complimented with a small smile.

Amanda had always liked to show off her perfect body. 

Even though she was sitting, he knew that her gown would probably only be able to cover half of her thigh when she stood up. 

The gown was body fitted with a deep V-Neck that exposed her cleavages for everyone to see how well endowed she was.

As usual, her face was neatly painted with different color shades. In fact, he was not sure he had ever seen her face without make-up. Even in the past, she always wore makeup and seductive outfits that aroused the shit out of him.

Her lipstick was a dark shade of pink that perfectly complemented her eye shadow. And on one earlobe, she wore only a dangling earring with the other earlobe bare.

He had always wondered why most ladies liked to wear only one earring. Why didn't they wear the complete pair or simply leave their ears bare like Germany. 

Speaking of Germany, his mind began to wander about and he no longer paid attention to Amanda. 

Where was she?

What was she doing?

What if her so-called boyfriend was touching her somewhere now?

Or what if they were making out?

His brows furrowed and his eyes darkened. 

'How dare that son of a—"

"Are you okay?" Amanda cut into his thought to ask when she suddenly saw the angry look on his face. 

Was he angry because she was talking about another man right now? 

She thought to herself amusedly as a blush creeped up her cheeks.
