Chapter 5 - Give Me Your Hand

Mirabelle couldn't hold back her comment after Brandon walked off .

" Damn , you're good , you have to teach me how to do that to irresponsible men " Mirabelle commented which made the young woman giggled in amusement.

" Okay I will teach you " everyone heard her say..

" My work here is done so I will be taking my leave now " she said looking at each of them.

" It was nice meeting you and your family " she told them with a slight smile preparing to turn around and walk out..

" Wait.." the young man she helped called out to her which generated her attention immediately.

" Is there a problem...? " she asked him with a questioning gaze but instead of giving her a response to her question he stood up and walked towards her in large strides with a strange look in his eyes which confused the young woman.

He came to a stop in front of her and stretched out his right hand which made her furrowed her brows in question.

" Give me your hand " he said calmly which puzzled everyone including the confused young woman even though she has a lot of questions about why he's taking her hand she didn't asked and just placed her hand slowly into his.

Immediately after she gave him her hand he pulled her towards the stairs in hurried strides which made the young woman frowned in thought deeply.

" Why does he look like a jealous husband who's wife has been wooed by another man....? " his younger brother asked with raised brows..

" I don't know but she's in a deep shit Azure " Mirabelle answered with a smirk colouring her face .

" Do you mean what I'm thinking right now....? " he asked his sister with raised brows.

" Yeah " his sister answered smugly while her answer made him smirked deviously....

Their parents who understood their conversation shook their head in amusement....

" You people should be careful about what you are planning to do because if you don't , he will skin you alive " the old man with shiny gray hair warned which made the siblings chuckled..

" He will like our plan grandpa , trust me " Azure said and highed five with his sister making their parents and grandparents sigh in disbelief.

"I will go check up on the cooks to see if they are done cooking " their mother said standing up before making her way to the kitchen .

" If I were you I would listen to your grandfather's advise and resign whatever I'm planning " their grandmother said in a suggestive tone while their father gave a nod of agreement with what she has said making the brother and sister pair roll their eyes at them.

While upstairs in the young man's bedroom....

The young man pulled her into the room and closed the door before pressing her against it with his hands on both sides of the door while the lady looked at him with confused eyes.

" Is something wrong...? " she asked looking into his eyes which held emotions she really couldn't defined .

" Are you just going to leave after laying a claim on me ...? " he asked with gritted teeth which made her understood what he meant but she still pretended to act dumbed for a strange reason unknown to herself.

" I don't know what you're talking about and I didn't lay any claim that I know of " she answered with a confused tone while scratching the side her head in a confused manner.

" Don't try to fool me with that innocent act of yours " he said in a no nonsense tone making her sighed resignation. Seems she couldn't fool the young man...

" You can't dump me after using me . You'll have to compesate me for it " he said in a low tone whiles looking her.

" How do you want me to compesate you sir " she asked with raised brows.

" I want you to compesate me the same way you used me but it won't be fake " he replied but it was more of a statement than a response..

The young lady looked at him as if he was speaking gibberish.. Was he drunk or has the attempted suicide made him lose his mind.

" We're strangers and we can't be in a relationship " she said to him without hesitation.

" You can't date someone you don't know . I don't know your name and you don't know mine so is impossible " she added trying to escape from his trap.

" I can and so can you " he said firmly which made her realized how serious he was.

She stood there for about five minutes before giving him a response.

" Okay but only for a month and if we don't like each other we'll end it " she compromised but also bargained with him which he nodded at .

" Fair enough " he muttered as he moved back from her while her stomach groaned loudly which made him chuckled at her .

" Hey , don't laugh at me , you were the one who distracted me from having my dinner " she said with a slight pout on her lips.

Her statement made him frowned deeply .

" What dinner are you talking about , it isn't the wine right? " he asked her with a frown .

Hearing his question she scratched the back of her heard whiles smiling sheepishly .

Understanding her smile made him shook his head slightly . " How can she call wine dinner...? " he questioned his thoughts.

" Let's go down " he said before pulling her by the hand and exiting the room with her .

" But I have to go home and get some sleep, I'm really worn-out " she said with a loud yawn .

" You're not going anywhere wearing that " he said without looking back at her as he continued to pulled her along with him.

" Hey Mr..... whatever your name is , I'm not a child okay and you are in no position to tell me what I should do and not do " she fired back making him come to a stop in front of her making her almost bump into him .

" What did you just say....? " he asked her with deadly raised brows which made her swallowed thickly.. He looked as if he would swallow her if she was to give him the wrong response.

" Nothing " she muttered in a low voice not knowing why she couldn't tell this young man off which was confusing her as she isn't someone who men control anyhow.

" Good " he said before pulling her downstairs.

What's your name...? , she asked him suddenly....

" You will know at the right time but for now you can call me whenever you wish to call me " he answered.

" Okay sir . I guess we're going to remain strangers until then " he heard her muttered .

He pulled her into the dinning room and pulled a chair out for her to sit down , the others looked on with raised brows they thought that by now she would have be on her way home but seems she wouldn't be going anytime soon.

After making sure she was well seated he pulled a chair for himself before sitting down .

Mirabelle poured some wine into their glasses while the young man picked food on to her plate.

His actions made his family gapped at him widely which he didn't pay attention to.

The young woman picked up the glass of wine and was about to have a sip when a large held the glass preventing her from drinking.

The young man gave her a meaningful look which she understood. She loosened her grip around the glass and let go of it with an angry huff causing the others to almost burst with laughter.

He set the glass of wine aside and picked up the water for her which she took with dissatisfaction written all over her small face.

" This is bullying . I'm old enough to have wine " she protested after sipping on the water he has given her few seconds earlier.

" You've had enough wine so from now onwards no wine for you until I day so " she heard him say leaving no room for further argument.

" Eat " he added while he picked food for himself.

Mirabelle and Azure casted each other a meaningful look before continuing to eat their meal while the others shook their heads in amusement.

After they were done eating they sat in the sitting room watching TV when all of a sudden someone barged into the room with an extremely cold aura....

The young man who was running his fingers through the young lady's dark hair didn't even bothered looking up at the person , it was as if he didn't see the person. The young lady was sleeping with her head on his laps ..

The person who barged into the sitting room was a middle aged man with dark curly hair which has a little bit of gray hair scattered in it and silver gray eyes which were looking coldly at the scene in front of him .

The middle aged man wasn't the only one who barged into the sitting room.

There were two other young men behind him , the one who was wearing a black suit has dark curly hair which was trimmed neatly at the sides and deep blue eyes with sliver rings surrounding it.

He has a very chilly aura surrounding him especially when he looked at the young lady who has her head on the young man's laps while he kept running his fingers through her hair in a gentle motion...
