Lure him

•Theresa POV•

I stare at james sleeping figure and couldn't help but admire his alluring features. He had been asleep since we got back from marina's fashion show.

Being an A-list model, attending parties like that was a must as declining them would only spread rumours and bring chaos to your reputation. And even though attending parties weren't really my thing, I had gotten accustomed to it over the years. Moreover, I had James to accompany me.

James was my boyfriend and boss. Yes! He owned the whole modelling agency I was involved in. And of course you know what the names and rumours that would follow.

' She climbed up the modelling agency cause of him'

'She purposely approached him because of his status and is now enjoying the benefit'

But of course those were the least of my worries. Whatever I had achieved was through my hard work. And even though sometimes he always chipped in to help, I always restrict him from doing so…

I stare down at the Godlike figure sleeping peacefully. The sun bared his face and I must say that he did look gorgeous. I let my hand roam around his face, Gentle enough not to wake him.

His eyes fluttered open and a smile crept up my lips. My cheeks a shade of red as I struggle to hide my already breeding lust.

'' Hey silly '' he chuckled before getting up to pat my head. A knowing look plastered on his face and I just felt like slapping that smirk off his mouth.

'' don't tell me you were staring at me the whole time'' he taunted and my facial expression was already giving me out.

'' No! Can you take me home? I'm exhausted.'' And I actually was. I didn't plan on going to marina's show at all. But may has insisted I did. Moreover I had declined her request of walking the runway with her. The least I could do was attend it.

'' okay let's go have dinner at my place'' he said as he roamed around the office probably looking for his keys.

'' No I'm good. Just take me home''

'' fine! '' He finally gave in after minutes of bantering. I didn't need dinner. I just needed to lay in that soft mattress of mine and go to sleep. I already had my fill at the party. Even though the wine was threatening to let itself out my body.

After dropping me home, I waved James goodbye and watched as he drove away before heading inside. The lights were turned off and when it came on, I six pair of piercing eyeballs gazing intently at me and I screamed '' WTF! ''

My dad, step mom and step sis were all staring at me, a sheepish smile plastered on each of their faces.

'' What?! '' I curiously stared back at them my expression platonic as I struggle to elicit an answer from them with it.

'' oh come on Theresa! Don't tell me you're outright stupid. The guy is clearly in love with you and it's been 5years + now and no mention of a ring. Don't tell me you're waiting for another woman to snatch him away? '' my step mom, mistress young was first to answer. Her usual whining again today but then not the right time, I mentally face palmed.

'' Your sister is capable of luring him into the family. If you've become handicapped enough to do that '' she continued to whine but i payed them no heed as I climbed up the stairs and straight to my room, shutting the door abruptly behind me.

The guy hadn't popped the question yet. Was I supposed to drag him on his knees and force him to do so?

The thought of marriage had crossed my mind a long time ago but he wasn't ready for that and my career was already souring high. I don't think I'd need any marriage activities and anything involved in that to distract me.

I let all thoughts about marriage and the occurrences of the day slip off my mind as I put my phone on 'DO NOT DISTURB' before sliding my way into the bed.

'How soft' I thought. And that was the only thing I had in mind before drifting off to sleep.
