1 Prologue

As Marco and i approach the table, Nick comes up behind us. I walk to my usual place next to Marco.

Nick walks to his usual place as well and holds out the chair on his right.

"You will sit here from now on" he announces for everyone to hear, as he looks at me.

"I am fine where i am thank you very much" I respond. I remember very well how last time he didn't want me there because Rhea was here. No thanks. You can save it for her.

"I wasn't asking" He says drawing unnecesary attention to us with everyone here.

"Well good. Because am never sitting there, ever. Isnt that Rhea's chair? You made that very clear last time" i know am being petty infront of everyone, but i dont care. He started it. I would rather sit on the floor than occupy his mistress' chair

Nick surprises me by smiling. I expected him to get angry. Am not sure whether to be relieved or scared.

He walks up to me and my eyes widen. What is he up to?

Am already sitted but he pulls my chair out effortlessly and pulls me up. I stand up in shook and watch him carry the chair i was occupying next to his. He pulls out the one Rhea occupied and replaces it with the one he just took.

"There, you can either sit here or on my lap, those are your only options, its up to you" he says turning to look at me again with a poker face. No expression. Zero.

I turn to look at everyone at the table, and they are all looking at me expectantly.

I look back at Nick and he is the only other person standing.

"Shall i choose for you?" He smirks finally.
