Chapter 5 - 2. First meeting.

Emily's POV

Wearing a very short black backless dress with tons of makeup applied on my face, I enter the party thrown by Jack, my uncle. I remember he used to visit me with lot of gifts but he stopped his visits after my Dad's death.

"Emily. My daughter." I hear the fatherly voice of uncle Jack who engulfs me in his warm hug. I feel so happy feeling this hug. It's been so long that someone has hugged me so warmly.

"You have grown so much, just perfect like your Mother." He emotionally says and places his hand on my head to give me his blessings.

"Make yourself comfortable and if you need anything just call me. I am here in the party only," saying this he goes to greet some of the other guests. My Uncle and Aunt also mingle with their friends and I am left alone with Tia who also eventually leaves me to find some other rich hunk. So logically, I am left all alone among people I don't know, which doesn't really bother me.

I have been roaming the party hall for an hour while trying to hide myself from all the dirty glances thrown in my direction.

Why did my uncle force me to wear such a short dress?

"Where is your escort?" I turn to find the most handsome hunk looking at me. At me?

He walks closer to me, looking dashing as ever. I am seeing a handsome man approach me for the first time in my life. He has a God like body hidden beneath his tux. I know this because of the way he carries himself in his walk. As he gets closer I see his eyes are a mesmerizing blue. His looks are ended with blackish brown hair which have been pulled back with a huge amount of gel.

He moves closer to me and I look here and there pulling my dress down a little to cover my exposed legs but fail to do so.

"So where is your escort?" he again asks me.

"I...I am...am not here…with an...escort" I stammer a little. Maybe due to his magnetic personality which can attract anyone.

"So you are here with your family?" I just hum and look here and there to find my family. I know if anyone sees me with him then I will face their wrath tonight.

"Would you like a dance with me?" he places his palm in front of me in a very gentle manner and I want to hold it but I fear Tia.

I don't know from where my uncle comes from as he forces me to dance with Mr. Knight, the man talking with me who is his new investor saying its not good if I doesn't fulfill his demand.

I place my palm in his and he takes a tight hold over it. Much tighter compared to any other and he seems to give me an evil smile. I want to move away but can't due to his hold. He takes me to the dance floor and places his hand on my bare waist pulling me close. I feel a chill run down my spine with his touch and try to move away from him but he tightens his hold on me crushing me to his front. He starts moving his hands on my back inappropriately. I again try to move away from him but I am caged in his arms.

I am just feeling like my dreams but the difference is this time it's real.

"Be mine tonight." He huskily whispers in my ear sending chills down my body. I glare at him hearing his words. "Don't act innocent. I know your sister is a one night type of girl and you are no less a hottie. I want to see what are you hiding behind this short yet hot dress."

Hearing his words I lose everything and slap him hard and move out from his embrace.

"How dare you slap me? You don't know what I can do. When I want something I get it, and you will be mine one day." he walks off angrily.

I don't know what came over me and I take a glass full of water from a waiter and empty it by throwing it on Mr. Knight's face.

"This water is to wake up you from your dream. Do you honestly think you can make anyone lie in your bed? But not me. Emily will not lie on any other person's bed especially when treated like that!" I spit fire and exit the party before anyone could say anything more.

I know I will face the consequences of today's Drama and that too very soon.
