Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 43

❝When a woman...❞

.•*•.

Sebastian had thrown me out of his office and I am now left to wander around the hallways, just thinking about what happened and how I could've kissed him. It was a heated kiss and somehow I wanted it and I needed it. Somehow I find my way to the guest floor with a heavy heart and something inside me begs me to turn around and go back to him but my head refuses. I need to stop thinking with my heart because the reasonable part in the brain is coming to reality and taking over.

Knowing that this is all just a trick but there is something that tells me that the deal is no longer active, but that would make no sense at all really for I know that Sebastian is a business man and it would be bad business if he were not trying to win this deal that we've made. This is just my heart trying to convince me of things that aren't even there at all, and now I need to put an end to that. But the question is, do I want to put an end to whatever it is that we have? 10

Do we even have something? All of this confuses me greatly and I'm starting to lose the sense of knowing the difference between right or wrong. Walking into the guest floor and being with the emptiness and silence, I sit down on the couch. "Let me guess, he screwed up somehow didn't he?" A voice behind me says, startling me. I turn my head to see Colt standing there. A puzzled look travels up my face as I look at him. He lets out a chuckle. "You're sulking and when a woman sulks after being with him, it can only mean he screwed up" He explains and I nod. 3

"It's a bit more complicated than that" I quietly say to him. Colt goes over and sits next to me on the couch. "Tell me about it" He suggests. Furrowing my eyebrows at him, wondering why he would want to listen to what I have to say or what is bothering me. Sebastian had told me that we would not be seeing him again, I'm sure he's busy with other things. "Why?" I ask him, unsure if I'm being rude or not but that doesn't matter to me. 3

"When a woman is sulking it means that she's hurting but it also means that she needs someone to listen to her and hear the things that she has to say and help her. And perhaps it might end in more..." He trails of and I let out a giggle but also make a disgusting face at him which only makes him chuckle. "You seem to know awfully much about women" I say and he smirks at me. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be disgusted or impressed, perhaps both but I'm not sure of that or anything for that matter.

He looks at me with his ice blue eyes and there is something hidden inside them that I don't understand but then again, do I need to? "You get that after sleeping with a few" He jokes. It makes me wonder how he and Sebastian are friends, while he is angry and closed off all the time, Colt is a joker and perhaps a bit if a flirt but that is just who he is, I think. I roll my eyes when he says he's slept with a few, since I already know he's not slept with a few or perhaps a few hundred women.

"Now, you're stalling. Tell me, what is bothering the fair lady" He says and while he said that he made a British accent but he's not that good at it. "Believe me, I'm nothing of a lady and there's nothing bothering me" I say, lying. I think he knows that too because he raises an eyebrow at me. "When a woman denies something it means the opposite which means everything is bothering you and neither one of us are leaving until you tell me what is bothering you, since obviously Sebastian isn't listening to you" He tells me. 9

Right before I was about to open my mouth, I feel my stomach growl and I remember that I've not eaten that well and would rather not repeat what had happened in Paris, those are memories I would rather forget. Even when I had eaten a few hours ago, I still feel the hunger clawing at me. "Fine, but can we please do it while eating?" I ask him and he is quick to stand up and reach his hand out for me to take. A smile is replaced on his lips when I do take his hand. 6

"Of course, I would never deny a woman something because when a woman-" He begins and I let out a giggle. "You an save that for later" I cut him off because it seems that this is a line that he's going to be saying a lot and somehow it does annoy me but it also makes me laugh a bit. Colt and I go to the kitchen to get food and we just make something with bread and then we sit down at the dining table. "Now, I believe it would be wise to begin speaking and let it all out" Colt tells me.

Am I wrong to not want to tell him? There is just so much that I've locked up inside me that I need to get out but perhaps this is the moment that I can get it out. "I don't even know where I should begin" I say after I've swallowed a bite I've taken. He lets out a chuckle and sips of the water that he has in front of him in a glass. "Why don't you start at the beginning" He suggests. Nodding my head I start. I did exactly that, I started telling him everything, from the moment that I was sold to Sebastian and to the point we've gotten to now.
