LOVE

Meetings are bliss

Samaira's POV

What the fuck is he doing here? That bloody smirk on his face. If I could, I would whip it off his pretty face. What? Don't come at me. Yeah, he is irritating but facts are facts. He indeed is handsome.

"What are you doing here?", I question not forgetting where I am. Even though I badly wanted to use vulgar language, I couldn't.

"Isn't this supposed to be a travel agency?", he asked not letting that smirk fall for even a second.

"Well, okay then. Please have a seat Mr. Mendes", I say and smirk too. If he wants to play, I don't mind at all. I love games.

"Sure Miss Kapoor", he says and sits down.

"I am sorry for being late. I wasn't notified about this meeting", I convey.

Even though we are playing, he is here for business. I hate mistakes in business. I was out for a meeting when my PA called me to inform me about this meeting. I didn't even know who the meeting was with until Blake turned around.

"No problem. So, let's start the meeting?", he asks. He was all professional now. I appreciated it. I didn't want to play games while discussing important details.

"Sure", I respond.

"I have heard that aside from traveling agencies, you have few hotels too", he says and that confuses me a bit.

"That's right", I state and he nods.

"I also heard that you are intending on selling your hotel, the one in Algeria", he said and then it clicked. Oh, yes. I did make it public about marketing that hotel.

"You've heard it right", I told and he smiled.

"I'd like to buy it", he states and I smile.

"Mind sending your PA out? George can accompany him outside", I say pointing at my PA. He looks at his PA and nods, signaling him to move out.

"You aren't playing with me, are you? Because my business is not a joke to me", I express after both the PA's leave the room. He smiles.

"No, Samaira. I am serious. I want to buy it", he assured.

"Okay then, it's a deal", I declare.

"Aren't we going to discuss the amount and everything?", he asks, confused.

"Even though you are a powerful and wicked businessman, I know that you won't cause a problem for me", I say and his smile expands wider.

He gets up from his seat and strides towards me. I get up too. He comes and stands in front of me. He leans forward and I lean backward.

"Wh-what are you doing, Blake?", I stutter.

He doesn't answer, just traps me by positioning his hands on both my sides. The table was the only thing that saved me from falling. He leaned down until his face reached my neck. I shivered by his touch. He kissed my neck and then my earlobe. I froze. What was he doing?

"Meetings are bliss, baby girl", he whispered in my ears and then retreated himself. But I didn't move. I couldn't process what just happened. He pecked my cheek and left from there.

What the hell just happened? Why would he do that? What's wrong with him? Ahh, he didn't even wait for me to question him. How could he just leave like that? Damn it! I don't want to meet him.

"Ma'am, you have to go home early. Shall I tell the chauffeur to be ready?", my PA entered the room and asked.

Shit! Seems like I don't have much choice, I HAVE to encounter him. This is so bad.

"Yes", I respond and he leaves.

Soon I exit my office. The car is already waiting for me. I get in and instruct the driver to stop at a cake shop before reaching home. Cakes are a must for welcoming new people. I buy a cake on the way and reach home at 6.

When I join everyone in the living room, I see that Blake is already here and so is Laura. Sitting beside her is her crush. He is a tall, muscular, handsome brunette. But Blake is taller. Ugh, I gotta stop thinking about him.

"Good evening everyone", I greet.

They all look at me and smile. Blake isn't smiling, he is just staring. I don't look at him, only glance occasionally.

"You are finally here", Siara speaks.

"Did I miss something?", I ask.

"No, you didn't", Laura says and smiles.

"I clearly did", I state.

"Huh?", Laura gives me a skeptical look.

"I missed the introduction part", I say and move towards where Laura and Brien are sitting.

"Hey! I am Samaira", I say and extend my hand for a handshake.

"Hey! I am Brien", he responds and shakes my hand.

"Heard a ton about you", I grin

"Vice versa", he grins too.

"I see. You both are getting along already", Laura says.

"I'll freshen up and come. Then we can leave", I tell and wink at her.

I took a short shower. I entered my closet to quickly put on something but got confused about what to wear. I chose straight-fit jeans, a tank top, and a bomber jacket. Black jeans and jacket, and white tank top. Simple and cool. I put my clothes on and then brushed my hair. I just put slight make-up on and then headed down to the living room.

"I am ready", I stated.

"Where are we going?", Siara asked.

I glanced at Laura and grinned. Only she knew where we were going because she wanted to know the location where she is going to propose to Brien. She had called to ask me about it.

"Santa Monica", I replied.

"A beach huh?", Ivaan voiced.

"Yes", I said.

"Let's go then", Laura said.

"LET'S GO", all of us screamed in excitement.
