Chapter 1 - Prologue

"When you turn around, you're mine." I muttered to myself as I stared at the man standing near the DJ's stage.

He just stood there and looked around like he was the bouncer of the place and not one of the winning soccer players. It's the team's victory party and I know who that guy is. He's the reason why I came home from traveling, aside from my mother who always nags me to come home.

I was looking at The Bachelors magazine when I saw a picture of him with my brother. He has this jet black hair and cold staring and mysterious dark gray eyes. Since then, I always dreamed of him. So I came home to meet the man of-literally-my dreams.

His face is always serious and shows no emotion. I like that about him. He's so mysterious and I like to solve mysteries.

I almost fist pumped when he turned my way and met my eyes but it was only a few seconds and he looked in another direction. I smirked. He likes me. I know he likes me because he looks at me. I walked towards my guy when suddenly a man blocked my path.

"Wanna dance?" I smiled at him sweetly.

"Of course not." I passed him but I didn't see the man I really came here for. I glared at the man who ruined my plan, who now has a girlfriend.

I stomped my feet and went towards Jaqie who was dancing alone on the dance floor while combing her hair and holding a glass in one hand. I shook my head. She's crazy. I just met her today but I feel so at ease with her even though she is a snob. She's the girlfriend of the Keith who is a friend and team mate of brother Demitri.

"Jaquie come on let's go back to our table. Julian must be worried now."

"I'll be back later. I'm still enjoying myself." I forced her one more time but she ignored me so I went back to our table and I saw Jules watching me. She's my brother's fiance. I travel a lot so I just met him now but I heard about him from mommy.

"I'm tired." I said as I approached her. She raised her eyebrows.

"Right away? Jaquie?" I wasn't really tired because I was only there for about five minutes. I went to the dance floor because I saw Enrique and I wanted to show off but he suddenly disappeared.

"Still dancing. He doesn't want to sit down yet." She sighed. I thought Jaqie was the kill joy among the three of us.

I went straight to my seat and drank from the glass I left earlier. I followed Julian when he went to Jaqie and pulled her back to our table.

"Jaqie you're drinking too much. That's right."

"Nonsense. I'm not drunk, I'm just enjoying myself." Jaqie's drunk, she keeps on giggling but I think she's alright.

"What's not? Look at how you look." I rolled my eyes. Jules' oa. We're girls and we tend to have fun.

I traveled in almost every country in the world and in every country many women who are older than us love to dance and enjoy. It looks like Jaqie is still okay, just tipsy. And her boyfriend looked like he doesn't care about her at all.

"Leave her alone Jules. She's having fun." I giggled when I saw her face. I feel like I really have a sister with me. I really like her for my brother.

"Jules!" I heard Trey called Julian. They talked but my attention was not on them. I keep on looking around hoping I can see him but still nothing. I looked at my phone when I read a text from my brother saying he's leaving and that I will take care of delivering Julian.

This brother of mine is really not a gentleman. What did Jules like about it? He didn't even say goodbye to her, maybe he just texted her too.

"Wait, Mira where is Jaquie?" I looked around the table and the empty seat beside me.

"She was just here earlier."

"You stay here, I'll just look for him. I'll be back." I nodded my head. Where did that woman go? She's still a bit drunk.

"What isn't there yet?" Julian asked as she came back. I shook my head. "Alright, I'll look at the cr."

Jaqie came back with a man who introduced us as Nuel. A handsome man actually. I just saw him today and I know he's not a member of the soccer team because I memorized every player. We chatted and he was nice. Kind and has a sense of humor.

"Wait, we've been talking here for a while now but you didn't tell me how you got into this party. No offense but I know that only the billionaires and some VIP guests are allowed to go here." I asked him.

"Enrique is my cousin. And speaking of my cousin." I heard someone call to him and my heart almost dropped when I saw who was approaching us. Oh my gosh, there he is.

The man of my dreams.

The love of my life.

So handsome and masculine with his gray shirt and leather jacket and I can't wait to see what's inside those clothes.

"Wow" I couldn't stop whispering to myself. The whole area seemed to be in slow motion as he walked towards us. I bit my lip when he was in front of me.

"Enrique" greeted Nuel with a smile. "This is Jaqie, Jules, and Mira." She looked at our faces but I know she stared at me longer than Jaqie and Julian. I know that his stare lingered for a second and that's enough reason for me to pursue him.

"We have to go." Gosh, my whole body almost trembled at the coldness of his voice but it also turned me on. His voice is manly, as if you can feel right away that he can protect you. And as cold as his voice is, that's how hot his body is.

I know because I saw a topless picture of him on the internet while practicing soccer.

"I have to go. Thank you for holding me. I will do it again." Nuel left with a smile while Enrique didn't even share a smile but of course, still handsome.

"So tell me girls, what do you think of Enrique?" I asked them as Nuel and Enrique left. I can still find a way for us to meet again. Lucky for me, he is a friend of Kuya Demitri. Although, I don't know my brother's friends very well because I was also lost in the Philippines for a long time.

"He's cold and he doesn't speak much." Jaqie said. I rolled my eyes. The one who was not cold and talkative spoke.

"I think he's scary." I almost laughed when Jules winced. Is he not used to my brother yet? That person is also cold and grumpy.

"I think he's hot and mysterious." I said dreamily. He's so perfect. Perfect for me. His mysteriousness is really taking the curiosity out of me. I'm attracted to him in a way that I cannot explain.

The whole night I didn't open my mouth but Enrique and it looks like Julian will only listen to me while Jaqie's mind is nowhere to be found. I think Keith's whole brain was taken away because he wasn't always himself.

I looked at the topless picture of Enrique that I took from the Internet. He's so handsome and hot. There are definitely many women chasing him but I don't care.

I'll make him mine.
