"Are we not dancing ?"
Jasmine turned her gaze to the silver eyed man next to her father . The man is devastatingly handsome and I'm sure many women have swoon over his feet but , he is one rude man . The man had made it known that he doesn't find her beautiful or his type when her father had led her to meet the man . Although , she doesn't care about the man's opinion about her because she is inlove with another . But the man's words and eyes , are something that leave a permanent scar on one's self if you pay much attention him . But who wouldn't pay much attention to the man ? He is outstanding , tall and brooding , and quite intimidating if she may add . He looks at you like you two have a beef or something , or it's like you have offended him some way and he makes it a task to make your heart race while dropping .
"Off course." Her father responded and clapped his hands to the musicians . Soon , the melody changed to something like a gentle breeze , carrying the listeners to a place of calm and contentment . Jasmine doesn't know the melody that was soon played by the musicians but she was sure her sister does . Mila , a huge fan of slow and calming music .
Her black eyes turn to the room , looking for her sister and that is when she saw the silver eyed man standing with his palm opened out for her sister . Is he asking her for a dance ? Jasmine's heart stilled for some unknown reason .
It seemed like all eyes in the room were on the man and her sister . Jasmine wasn't sure if her sister would accept the man's hand . But she was like , seventy percent sure she will because of the man's unresistable charm . 'To those who cannot resist his charm will fall for him ' , she said to comfort herself . She is inlove with another .

Mila let the man lead her to the open circle which was made to be the dancing stage. His hand was warm and bigger than hers .
He held her hand only , but she was already heated and her breathes were coming out uneven .
There were people dancing on the floor too , and she was grateful for that . She knows how to dance , most especially because she loves to dance and had took dance lessons . She is a huge fan of the Renaissance era and how could she be the number one fan without knowing how to dance as elegant as any of the princesses in those time ?
The man twirled her that she was now facing him , the space between them only befiting for a pin to squeeze in but not any other person . His hand snaked itself around her waist and through the through silk of her dress , the physical contact and action set her body into flames .
With the way how she smelled his scent more than she can ever smell danger from afar ; it's dangerous and smile twisting . He smells of leather , tobacco , musk and earth itself. His scent is that both of nostalgic and somewhat comforting .
Mila hated it , but she started comparing him with the two boys she has ever thought she is inlove with . Tristan and Calvin . This man was nothing compared to them and nor are they anything compared to him . Starting with the looks , although he looked at her with no expression on his face , as if he isn't enjoying this dance at all . But he is one hell of a handsome man .
With his one hand wrapped around her waist that her mother has worked hard on to make slim and their intertwined hand , the man moved her body to how he wished and she wasn't protesting , rather she was submissive and let him twirl , throw and pull her ; however he wished .
He remained silent and the righteous brothers music was the one speaking in the background for them . Her heart was calm and steady after going through battle calming it down .
When the song was cut , the dance ended . The man still held on to her one hand while people cheered and the couples that were dancing embraced one another . Mila could care less , but she drank those silver eyes that seemed to be glowing .
"Outside ." He said . It sounded like a statement . But she nodded to that question .
Why ? She hadn't realised what she had done when he pulled her until they left the space and that is when he left go of her hand , as if he expected her to follow him .
Mila stopped walking and he must've realises because he turned to glance back at her . She was back to tapping her fingers anxiously to the sides of her dress . She doesn't know this man and she would not leave the room without him even though her three stationed guards were already behind him .
"I do not know you ." Mila said , her voice sounded like one of a hopeless girl , she hated it .
"Neither do I ." The man only said . Still no expression on his face , but the eyes did not stop to bore into her body like he knows all of her dirtiest secrets . Yes , dirtiest secrets , she has a lot of them .
"Should I get to know you more infront of so many eyes ?" The man questioned .
Mila felt the silent around them , but she knew the room wasn't silent and everyone was enjoying their time , but she is that anxious right now . The man seems to notice her anxiety but he doesn't seem to care and that is where she must take a huge big step . Tristan and Calvin never considered her emotions and even though she ignored all the signs , at the end , she always ends us with a broken heart and questioning God why her .
Mila nodded her head . The man did not respond but only lifted up the corner of his lips to a half smile-smirk . They stared at one another until her father approached them .
"Mr Andromeda ." Her father's words drilled through her skull . So this is the Mr Andromeda that had her father want to hide . She had seen how her father had turned jittery when Augustus had announced the man's arrival .
She heard her father introduce her to the man in the matter of the seconds but the man cut her father off ," She can speak for herself , can't she?" His voice was like piercing knives . Whatever he says , it seems to recieve emotions from every person .
"Yes . Yes she can ." Her father responded . He was nervous she could tell and she hates it . Why is the man making it hard for her father to breath . But she noted that the man is more powerful and dangerous than any other men in the room . She hadn't noticed the man until he approached her for a dance .
"Mila . This is Mr Andromeda , he's the new owner of the many other companies , factories that has been top on the media in these past few days . I happen to invite him over for today because of ..." Her father spoke , but she did not pay much attention to his many and never ending words . She cares less of the businessmen and CEO'S of the town or state .
