Lured By The Billionaire King

“ Ms. Santiago, why don't you come over here and properly introduce yourself.” The person said, and Ria had to bite her inside cheeks, not to curse vile words. Even with the more chill atmosphere in his room Ria tried to walk until she reached the two-step next to his office table. “ I still can't see you, Ms. Santiago “ There's a hint of sarcasm in his voice. Ria tried to steady her footing even though she's nervous, and his initiative is scaring the hell out of her. Plus, this freakin cold atmosphere wasn't helping at all. This damn guy probably thinks he's living in Antarctica. Even Ria's breathing is producing fog indicating how cold his room is. “ Right away, Sir,” She heave an internal sigh when she manages to utter those three words without stuttering. When she lifts her legs and manages to land her foot one step away from him, Ria was shocked when he stood up facing her. Ria feels like her whole world turns upside down, seeing Khrys in front of her. She took one step backward and lost her balance when she forgot that there's a step behind her. Luckily Khrys was quick to grab her hand and pull her in his arm. She made a small shriek and tried to push him away, but he won't let her go. Khrys buried his face on the crook of her neck, one hand is firmly holding her waist steady, while the other is gripping the back of her head. “ I miss you my Queen,” He utter while inhaling her scent like it's his source of life. Ria felt waves of tiny volts flickering all over her body. She can't believe Khrys is Mr. Villar so young to be. Maybe he's the son, but no shit-talking the lady in reception clearly said whom she's going to meet. Goddess! Is this day her doomsday?! ***** Ria had a rough time in Manila. It wasn't easy to live there especially for a bumpkin like her. But one day, her already messed-up life turned messier when she got a task that will determine if she could keep her current work or not and to add more to her problem is the Mysterious World she's about to face when she meets her soulmate.

You're Mine 

She felt an intense gaze on her so she looked to the guy next to her. Ria was so surprised that their eyes interlock for a brief second before she snapped out of it and quickly averted her look on her phone pretending she was busy on it. She tried her best to look calm even though her heart is thumping like there's a mad bull hammering her chest. Slowly her face felt warm from embarrassment of being caught staring intently at the stranger.

" I didn't know I would meet you again, my adelfí psychí? Was the light in the waiting area too bright for you?" He asked while his gaze did not leave her. He closed his laptop and all his attention was focused on her. Ria felt both her cheeks, blushing like red tomatoes. She can't understand why she hates it when he teases her. She bit her inside cheeks and decided to look back at him with a dreadful look, but she can't vent her anger because Ria thought that he intentionally mentioned her sunglasses.

Ria tried to calm down and told herself that this guy' doesn't even know what's hiding beneath her shades.

She averted her gaze and looked back to her phone to give him a feeling that she's not interested in talking to him.

'adelfí psychí' there goes again those two magical words awakening those damn unexplainable feelings inside of her. How weird.

Ria was surprised when a hand appeared in her view.

" I'm Khrys, Can I have the pleasure of knowing the person I saved last night?" Ria looked up, surprised that he was standing in front of her with a gentle smile plastered on his face. Meeting his gaze again. Her heart that slowly beats normal starts to thump erathicaly. Ria feels like she's back on time. Just like last night, she thought she's in a hypnotic trance. It felt like the world only evolved around them.

Those deep blue eyes convey so many things that she thought. If she unravels it, she would be swallowed whole.

She doesn't know what to do.

Her brain isn't functioning like it shut down itself.

Damn it!

What's wrong with me?!

Every time this guy appears, she's like a teenage girl star struck by her crush?!

"Excuse me, Mister, Are you going to sit back, or may I have your seat?" An older Lady broke off the trance that Ria was into, and she was surprised when she heard him say to the lady," You can have my seat Ma'am" he gathered his things and started walking.

Ria heard his footsteps stop just behind her where some passengers that didn't get a seat were standing too.

Ria felt ashamed that because of her, that guy lost his seat and was now standing behind her back.

This guy might even have a grudge on her now because Ria did not only ignored his words and accepted his approach to know her.

She also made him looked stupid in front of many people, and now Ria could even feel an intense gazed seething through her back.

Was he really mad at me?!

Damn! Was that even her fault? Is she not allowed to ignore somebody?!

What the hell is wrong with these people?!

He was even the one who stood up and approached her.

But the eyes of those people that surround her made Ria feel uncomfortable because it's like they are blaming her, and she's trying hard not to roll her eyes.

This damn guy even got sympathy from the people around her.

" He's a good lad, Young Ladies nowadays areblind and can't see if a person is genuinely nice or not." the lady next to Ria uttered while she's holding a book.

Ria was in shock and can't hide her embarrassment anymore. She stood up, grabbing her backpack, and walked away.

Luckily the waiting area is near a comfort room. There's still half an hour before Ria's flight, so she decided to stay there until it's time for the departure.

She sits in one of the empty cubicles letting out a few drops of tears to shed.

Even though the old lady doesn't have a clue what Ria went through still those words that she said, especially the one that she "can't figure out who's genuinely nice or not triggered her emotions.

The lady was right.

She's too stupid to see if a person is good or not.

Though the best way to forget someone you cherish for how many years is to think of them as a mean person or think of all the mistakes they've made.

Still, Ria can't just get over him just like that.

Even though she knows Micheal is a jerk but still some good memories of them are still in her heart.

Ria knows time can heal everything, but she can't force herself to get over it in just a day?! Much worse a few hours! After all the bad things that Micheal has done not only to her but to his real family was revealed in front of her although she still can't believe it really happened but she's trying her best to forget everything and start all over again. Perhaps she's not lucky in terms of having a relationship. Even the person she longs to see since she was young has never shown up to her. Maybe it's best to take a rest and it's time to love more herself. Being alone is not bad either. You have the freedom to do everything that you want without thinking about somebody else.

On the other side, Khrys tried his best not to vent his anger to the old lady who made his adelfí psychí cry.

But he can't also accept that she's crying over a mortal that doesn't deserve her tears. Jealousy starts to creep inside his heart, and he promises to himself that he would claim her and complete their bond as soon as possible.

He would make her crave for him and indulge her with everything she wishes, so no other mortal or immortal can even compare to him.

Khrys was even thinking of taking advantage of their bonds as Ria's one true mate to make her forget that piece of junk!

Well, for thinking of another man when your mate is around isn't nice my adelfí psychí, I shall teach you a lesson that you will never forget, just wait and see.

Khrys hides his face under the shadow of his baseball cup while there's a naughty smirk looming on the corner of his lips.

'Soon you'll be mine, my adelfí psychí.' Khrys uttered in the air like a claim that can never be broken.

Yes! go Khrys claim your blood bound mate!
