Being an average student with only one year left for school, Alicia's only dream had been to graduate and look for a job so as to fend for herself Almost a month to submitting her thesis and graduating , Mr perfect walks into her life and changes everything
'I hope this is good this time around, the last one wasn't so good'
I waved my hands over the coffee gently as I inhaled the smoke breathing in deeply
'Trust me, this was brought today from one of our best...'
I stopped him swiftly as I raised the cup to my mouth sipping it slowly
'Ummmm..this is so good Thompson'
He smiled and nodded
'Alicia you should trust me when it comes to coffees, let me get you another one think of it as my treat as you are the first customer to taste it..but you would have to pay next time'
He pointed a finger at me jokingly
'Yes sir'
I laughed and handed him back the cup
Immediately he came back with a cup steaming in his hands and placed it on the counter
'Here you are'
As I reached out to take it, it slipped over and to avoid it pouring over me, I shifted back and almost stumbled as I felt a firm hand hold me protectingly
As I looked up a pair of soft grey eyes stared back at me innocently , I must say he was the most handsome man I have ever seen throughout my twenty one years on earth
His long nose scrunched unknowingly as he sucked on his lower lip sending me shivers all over
His black shiny hair danced in the air as some curls fell on one side of his face, he was way more handsome than the anime characters I drew in my leisure time or whenever I had a boring class He looked at his watch and stared back at me
'Five minutes , three seconds..miss are you done watching'
I shifted immediately and lowered my head as I tucked some of my hair behind my ear awkwardly
'Sorry..thank you'
He nodded and moved forward
'Is there any recommendation'
Thompson nodded and one could see he was eager to allow him taste the new coffee
'Yes wait a bit'
I took the time to check out the new handsome devil beside me
His blue black suit firmly clung to his hot body as his blue tie fastened to his neck , his black socks peeped out a little in his shiny shoes and his watch was fastened on his wrist making him look responsible and hot
I looked away and smiled
This was exactly my type of man
Thompson appeared and smiled after what seemed like ages and handed him a cup
After checking for some minutes Mr handsome sniffed slowly over the coffee and drank it slowly eyes on Thompson
Suddenly he stopped and wiped his lips
'What's this'
Thompson looked at me and stared at the coffee in embarrassment
'Don't you like that..I could do another'
He raised his hands and stared at him with disgust
'Can I use your kitchen'
Thompson nodded
'Alicia didn't you like the coffee just now'
He whispered to me and I nodded watching in amusement
This guy better not spoil all the good thoughts I had about him
He reboiled the coffee and switched it to his desired degrees as he measured the sugar carefully
I stretched my neck well and scoffed
After measuring the milk almost for an hour, he poured them all into a kettle and glanced at his watch
At exactly five minutes , he placed it down and poured it into a cup and came out looking satisfied
Thompson didn't know what to say as he watched him
'I'm sorry for making you go through so much trouble, accept that as my treat you don't have to pay'
Thompson was really good at offering people treats
'No, I would pay it just sucks to see a well known shop lacking someone good to make coffees...I suggest you look for another job'
Thompson looked down in embarrassment and smiled as he bowed down
I wouldn't watch him blast my friend like that, he was acting so arrogant
'I would pay sir, you shouldn't have asked for a recommendation when you knew what you wanted more so if you knew you could make a coffee well I don't see any reason why you should be here in the first place'
I swiped my phone on the screen and waved at Thompson before I walked out
I could feel his eyes on me
š± THE DEVIL'S š± š¾ TOUCH š¾ [ How To Tame A Bastard š] [Jessica's Plight, Aaron's Mission] ***Auckland, New Zealand*** To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed right now. I thought I already met the perfect girl for me. I was stoked seeing Tayla this morning, looking so strikingly gorgeous when she boarded my yacht. She looked demure and virginally innocent in her knitted white dress that covered her beautiful curvaceous body. Her jet black hair was twisted in a knot above her head with soft tendrils flowing at the sides of her face. My excitement died when her hands could not keep them by her sides. She was sexually touchy and came to me quite fast. She initiated our first kiss and gave me the tongue already. I was immediately disillusioned. Another of my first date turn offs. After we had lunch, she refused the kiwi pavlova for dessert and opted for my manhood instead. We had wild sex for the rest of the afternoon. I met Tayla in the New Zealand Entrepreneur Conference last night. I was one of the speakers while she was one of the organizers of the event. She looked so gorgeous, confident and smart. She was also a brunette. Something I had a thing in a woman. Tayla approached me after my speech and introduced herself. We talked for about five minutes, and immediately she captured my interest, so I asked her for a date. But today proved that I was wrong. She did not turn out to be the girl that I expected. She was too wild and sexually aggressive. A bad impression on the first date. Tayla got so exhausted and slept the rest of the afternoon, while I dove off to the crystal clear blue water of the ocean and had a vigorous swim. The water was slightly rough and icy cold on my skin. Just how I wanted it to be. It rejuvenated me, like a new energy - giving me more strength, power and motivation to do what I must do. I was born bearing a huge obligation for my family, that is guardianship of the Latsis' trillion dollars worth of fortune. As the eldest of my three siblings, I carried the responsibility of managing our family's empire. I remembered when I was thirteen, I got so confused about the responsibility that my father, Tristan Latsis kept on reminding me. I bursted at him one afternoon in our cattle farm at Wellington, with a tear stained face. "I thought we're extremely rich and I'm going to keep the family's money! Why am I shovelling this pile of filthy cows' manure? Can you just let our workers do it?" My dad would just say. "To be a good leader, Aaron, you must first become a good servant." "That's so unfair! You separated me from my siblings. They're in Auckland having a grand time while I'm here in Wellington, studying and working my ass as a farm boy. What am I to you, a slave? Sometimes I wonder, if I'm really your son!" I kept on complaining, until one day, I stopped when I enjoyed being on the farm. I learned cattle and sheep raising, dairy farming and managing the whole farm. But when I entered University to study mechanical engineering at the University of Auckland, I missed the farm terribly. I became so lonely and cried for days. I should be happy that I was with my family all the time. But... I could not relate with all my siblings. Edward who was two years my junior was too posh and arrogant. He had a superiority complex and would contradict me in every possible way. Skylar, the only girl, was five years younger than me, and she had her own world. A nerd who wanted to be alone all the time. Her twin, Troy was too hyperactive. He loved adventures and wanted to try new things all the time - including taking all forms of drugs. While studying, dad started training me in running our airline business in Auckland. It was very overwhelming at first, too different from farming. Gradually, the training became more intensive and my responsibilities became bigger and bigger, until I graduated university where I had full hands on the business. Now at the age of twenty nine, I took control of the airline business, while dad went back to Wellington with mom and managed the farm..........
