Rosie could vouch on her life that this man was not running, he was walking like a normal human being but she was not able to catch up with him.
Before she got close to him It was already late, he was in his room and his door locked.
Rosie held her breath, beathes hard before embracing herself.
She's walking into a lions den and it can be dangerous. After summoning up the courage, she knocked on his door, when she heard him permit her in, she opened the door.
Huh..huh. King chuckled upon seeing her.
"Remember you came here unprovoked".
"I'm sorry for that, I just wanted to be sure that you used me to dodge a bullet right?" She was hoping that's the truth, she wasn't ready to go anywhere with him.
"The next time someone doubts me when I say something I would teach them a lesson".
"Wait!! you're not serious? You are actually serious? Rosie asked still in shock.
"Why would you Invisibly Invite me without my knowledge?"
"Because for the umpteen time, I am your master, you are my slave. King was definitely loosing his patience with this rabbit. He felt like snapping her neck off.
"Don't i at least have the right to to know before the event?"
"Of course, the stylist was meant to be here today but she was busy preparing your outfit and everything you will be needing".
"She would be here in the morning for your fitting, so you better be ready. Just show up, your hair down to your makeup, your dress and whatever it is you need will be provided tomorrow.Just be ready when I come back form work Okay?"
"Jeeezz!! I have said more words than i have in a long time". King exclaimed calmly
"Since you've decided my life without my knowledge I'll just go with it".
Rosie resigned and turned to leave the room, only to realize that the door was locked while she tried opening it.
She turned to see King with the door remote.
At this moment she realized what she walked into, she hurriedly said.
"Can we have a calendar for this activities, I'm really not feeling great for this, please".
"Well I'm feeling great for it, I make the rule, you follow.
Rosie really wanted to punch his face and wipe off that Smirk of it.
He pulled her close to his embrace and kissed her till they were breathless.
Rosie hated the way he made her feel, her body subconsciously succumb to his touch and yearn for it. His intoxicating scent just makes her weak in the leg.
Her head says no while her body says yes. That was a weird feeling for her.
"Can I ask you a question?" Rosie asked him when he was done pleasing himself
"Sure". King lazily replied as he laid on the bed.
"How long till I pay off my father's debt".
"Question for another day, leave my room I need to sleep".
Rosie left the room without saying another word.
****************
After breakfast King reminded Rosie to be ready for fitting before he left for work.
After few hours, the stylist arrived with lots of people with different types of dresses, shoes and accessories.
Rosie was overwhelmed by looking at the whole action.
Her family wasn't wealthy but they were rich enough to attend all these gatherings and events. Rosie for once never attended any of it because she hated it with every bone in her body.
It was just people in beautiful dresses, champagne in their hands, smiles not reaching their eyes, laughter in the mouth and hatred in their eyes. Just their for social benefits.
Rosie preferred to be in concerts, cinemas or anything that has to do with her passion, which is acting singing and sometimes she just love watching cooking shows.
Right now because of someone who is self absurd, she is now enslaved to him, she has to do things she hated without complaining.
After long thoughts, she started her fittings, after everything, her clothe, shoe, purse and accessories was selected.
They were to come back later for the makeup artist and the hairstylist to do their job.
*****************
Clara and her family were also preparing for the gala, of course The mayor will be present.
Clara was dressed in a long silver dress, embellished with silver rhinestones, with a silver shoe complimenting her outfit.
Her mom went with a black dress that speaks elegance and also complimented her.
They were waiting for the mayor to come back from work and so they can go together as a one happy family, but they were far from being a happy family.
Aside from the mayor loving his daughter, he never had love for his wife. His wife knew of his constants misbehaviors being, cheating on her multiple times but they were still together because of the society, thier daughter and for alignment.
Helen really do love him but he couldn't love her and they are now partners.
***************
King came back from work, when he opened the door he was welcomed by a shocking view.
He was met with the sight of Rosie sitting in the living room dressed in a lovely red sequel dress, that popped out her skin tone and everything was just breathtaking, from the makeup, to the hairstyle, the shoe, everything just screams magnificent.
His was so mesmerized that he couldn't take his eyes off for minutes, he recovered from the shock, regained his composure and went straight to his room to freshen up like he didn't see her.
Rosie wasn't shocked because it wasn't a new thing that he acknowledges her whenever he deemed it fit.
After he was done freshening up he wore a simple black suit.
He wasn't doing too much but even without doing too much, his Aura speaks for him, his face, his body and everything was just screaming, Sophistication Elegance, Danger, Beauty and Out of Reach.
He came downstairs and signaled her to follow him.
Rosie sheepishly followed him.
********
The charity Gala was meant to not only bring rich people together but also let them help contributes to the society, to people who are in need of Education, Healthcare, Electricity And Water.
So with this they could help raise money for those in need.
That's the reason why King decided to attend, there was no way he would be here if it wouldn't be beneficial either for him or to people that are desperately in need of it. Especially kids.
"Ann is here with me. She's in the car. After the gathering you can go meet her".
"Okay, let's just enjoy the ceremony, i'll go see her after this ends". Rowell replied.
