FascinatedWords: 10975

A new morning made an appearance, with a new beginning for Sophia. She was excited for new work she received. This is the first time where she received order on her name or she got to do her own work without being assisting superior. In past whatever work she did was order assigned to Charlotte and she assisted her with that work.

With a constant twinkle on her eyes, she had shower and after breakfast she got ready in below knees light brown colored sweater dress and braided her hairs. Taking her necessities she went off to gallery.

Once there she went to the Charlotte's accommodation and started working where she left the other evening with concentration. As usual she was early even today and no one was there.

This explained why she didn't receive any file which Noah mentioned the other day. As her mind drifted back to uncanny look in his slate-grey eyes she felt shudder running over her body.

Anyways, she doesn't have to encounter him now as now she knows the purpose of his drop by. She made a commit it to memory to make a request to director to talk about the deal as a representative of her with Noah as she feels hesitant and fear full in front of him.

One thing was still ambiguous to her, how did he knew she's a sculptor and why did he selected particularly her? Was this all a trap or he fortuitously discovered her work? But why would such a successful rich man select a newbie, unschooled sculptor like her to carve a statue, when he can afford the best in town.

Still feeling something's off she wanted to back off but anyhow what he mentioned the other day was a veracious account. It's once in a lifetime window of opportunity which she doesn't want to let it slip by taking false step.

Pushing these uncomfortable clouds of thoughts aside she wallowed herself again in work. She had to complete this work by today so, right away she could start with the new one as she want to work in a fresh work only after completing whatever was assigned to her.

She should not think about such things, may be all these fear is painted up by her brain and also if anything occurs she has Lisa and Samuel and also Uncle James. They will keep harm away from her. For now she should focus on her work with full concentration and once her house filled to capacity with sweet memories will be free of debt, she will have a month off to give herself mental repose and drop all these hustles.

Her mind was engaged in making castles in the air when abruptly she felt someone tapping on her shoulder. She turned her head to have a look and found Charlotte standing with confused look over her face.

"I called you several times Sophia. What's your mind is occupied with? Come I have something to show you."

Sophia smiled seeing Charlotte and replied "Hey Charlotte! Where to?"

"Come, you will see."

With that Sophia got up from her seat and tailed behind Charlotte like a lost child, pondered over where she is taking her to.

Soon Charlotte took Sophia to a room recently converted to cabin. Opening the door she entered the room followed by Sophia. Once in, Sophia roamed her eyes and gasped watching extra clean, properly ventilated, beautifully decorated room, and a proper and quintessential work space.

There was a desk placed in the room with papers, diary and pen to make notes, sketch design and paper work can be done. It also had working lamp on a side. There was also a separate work table where all things and latest tools required for carving sculpture was available.

Everything needed for one's comfort was available in that room. It was like a separate individual gallery within the one outside. Everything was passable except room was decorated with bouquet of white daisy flowers, her favorite ones.

"Charlotte?" Sophia uttered finally with confusion written all over her face.

"Yes Sophia, this is your work area. Your personal one, which many dream of but you finally achieved it with your back breaking work and wholeheartedness. So happy for you, dear. Hard work does pay off." Charlotte replied smiling at Sophia.

But Sophia was dumb founded. Trepidation hit her hard and in a panicked state she questioned with quaver in her voice "Charlotte, how come I have my own work space and what with these flowers? Who gave them?"

"Didn't you always want your own space? Your hard work deserves this, you have earned it and flowers are from Mr. Taylor, on stepping up the ladder."

Sophia's eyes popped out and looking at Charlotte's direction she stated "I think something's off. There is something which we are not able to see. You know Charlotte, two days back Mr. Taylor came to the shop where I work as florist and he kept on staring me for several minutes, in a strange way, I can't explain what I saw in those eyes of his'. Furthermore, the same night I felt as if being followed by someone but when I searched, found none. And yesterday he came to the gallery saying he wants me to carve statue but anything is not yet released in market on my name, how does he know I can do it? Moreover director himself provided me with a personal work space when all he use to do is scold both of us in name of my promotion and how I don't have proper gradation. And today all these flowers above all, my favorites. Is this really just a big coincidence?"

Sophia explained everything to Charlotte in single breath all that had happened as late as now.

Charlotte replied after giving it a thought for some minutes "Sophia, I think you are exaggerating. All this can b a series of occurrence, where Mr. Taylor was constant. But if you will let this right set of circumstances slip you are going to regret it just because of your doubts. Believe me you deserve this."

Charlotte tried her best to make Sophia understand and grasp the golden opportunity, like a good mentor. Sophia nodded her head absent minded, thinking how to explain her, what she saw in those gray sharp eyes.

'I'll tell everything about it to Lisa when she will come in evening' she thought about her only savior.

"Come on Sophia get in and get started with your work." Charlotte spoke again.

"But I have not finished my past assignments." Sophia explained softly.

"Don't worry about that, a new intern has been allocated to me, she will continue from where you left, now go on." Charlotte encouraged her smiling.

Getting in Sophia saw a file on her table. She immediately caught what it contains.

Opening it she read the details of what it is for her to carve.

He wanted her to carve using subtractive sculpture technique, a boy holding butterfly in his palms.

Thinking it thoroughly, she started to sketch the draft to put her thoughts into a design. Finishing sketching, she made notes of due dates and all important details in her diary.

She thought how happy she was this morning and just by mention of his name has made her frightened to the core.

Once done she started to work on her own incarcerate.

12 hours ago:

A blond sexy girl with perky tits and ass was doing pole dance in a luscious way eyeing hungrily the tall handsome man sitting on coach, spreading his long legs, whose eyes were indeed on dancing blond but mind seemed to be travelling in other world.

His white shirt was half opened and sleeves folded displaying his brawny chest and arms with tie hanging loosely around his collar. Above all, his hard boner was visible through pants which the blond girl thought was because of her but only Noah knew what made his condition like this. Blond girl was dripping saliva, watching his alluring frame.

Whereas, he was picturising his seductress 'Sophia', thinking how she would look while making such faces or will she ever seduce him in?

The blond walked sensually towards Noah and started to give him lap dance when out of trance, he held arms of blond and threw her roughly on the ground and growled "I gave you permission to give me lap or to touch me?"

Color of the blonds' face disappeared and she started to shiver under devil's gaze not knowing what he might do next.

Noah stood up from his seat, walking near the girl on floor he stoop to her level and grasping her jaw, gave it a hard squeeze. The girl whimpered and closed her eyes shut thinking that he might just break her jaw apart.

Noah roared again "I allowed you to disturb me? Answer me. Did I?"

"I am sorry sir, I won't repeat it." Blond girl managed to speak with painful jaw in between sobs.

"I'll make sure you don't." Noah spoke with clenching his jaw.

"Hey have you lost it? Leave her, what big of mistake has she committed?" Dexter got from his seat and spoke pulling Noah's arm.

Dexter siring his friend's condition where he is not touching any girl from past 15 days or so decided to give him some release from the hassle building up within him. He took Noah to his own club and asked the best stripper among there to entertain him, but he did warned her not to get on his nerves as he is not by himself or things won't end up smooth. But her hunger for ravishing man like Noah brought her own ruination.

Giving a final stare Noah left her and got up from ground, sat on the coach with a thud, throwing his head back on the couch's back post, covered his eyes closed with his hand.

The blond girl got up hastily from the ground and dashed out of the room to save her life from the beast.

"What's wrong with you Noah? Are you planning on turning a saint? Or have you already turned to one?" Dexter asked him in frustration.

"I don't know. I don't feel like banging anyone. For now I just want Sophia in my arms." Noah confessed.

"There you go again with this Sophia, Sophia thing. Are you in love with that girl? Tell me honestly, I am asking this for the last time." Dexter was visibly annoyed to the edge by Noah's recitement of Sophia's name.

Noah started to give a throaty laugh like a maniac. Suddenly he spoke "Love? Now tell me Dexter, have you lost it? I want to fulfill my desires till I am satisfied to brim." "Then why are you running around her like a lost puppy? Moreover she's not your type."

"Sophia is different, indeed. She is not like other girls where I will ask her and she will spend a night with me for my money. Above all it's not just lust that's overpowering my mind but her simplicity and beauty is making me obsessed over her." He explained walking in the memory lane of Sophia. Thinking something he spoke again "I'll have to properly plan everything."

Saying so he took his phone out and gave instructions to Stefan of how he want a separate work area for Sophia and also to send congratulatory flowers, of course her favorite one's, by tomorrow's morning.

He came out of the bar smiling walking towards his black McLaren GT, thinking now how he is going to take baby steps towards Sophia to lure her in and not just act in a

hasten pace.

His little swan deserves all the happiness of this world and not to suffer such

harshness.
