create a better lie his blue eyes
sparkle dangerously. Her heart rate quickens as he stares at her intently.
    “You’ve still
not told me your name. So let’s just pretend I believe all that you’ve just
said. I’d like to know the name of such a beautiful liar. I know you don’t know
me because you’re British. I love the accent.”
    They both laugh
as he sexily winks at her.
    “You are far too
smart for an American. My name is Sierra Malcolm. Glad to know you like the
accent, not sure if I can say the same about yours,” she says sarcastically.
    He laughs at her
remark and asks her a few more questions. The coldness in his eyes almost
disappears as they laugh and joke like people that actually know one another.
His voice is warm and deep which adds more to his sex appeal as Sierra admires
his full lips and everything else about him. His face is enticingly handsome
with perfect features made slightly imperfect by the hard manliness of his cold
stare.
    Chad Perry is
the perfect man in her eyes; her opinion of him surpasses her opinion of
Sebastian. She knows there is something bad about him by the way in which his
driver seems visibly uncomfortable as he waits for his boss. This elusiveness
attracts her to him even more. He has an aura of mystery and danger that entices
her. She wants to know him, but most importantly she wants to be his. He
captures her heart within that moment. No man has ever made her feel like this.
    His phone rings.
Chad looks at the caller ID but refuses to answer as he seems to be enjoying
his conversation with Sierra. However, he then begins to behave uneasily around
her and she senses it.
    Suddenly a
stranger enters the car park, but before she can get a good look at him he
disappears into the limousine that is parked a few cars down from Chad’s car.
The only thing she sees are his green eyes that remind her of the ones she had
seen earlier in the bar. An ice-cold chill shivers down her spine.
    Chad is about to
speak but his driver politely interrupts. “Boss, we have to leave now.” He
tells Chad that they are being waited for and need to get away quickly.
    Sierra’s heart
almost breaks at the news that he needs to leave immediately.
    “Take my number,
Chad,” she says eagerly.
    He laughs and
takes her number and gives her a dashing smile and a wink in return.
    The Rolls Royce
smoothly exits the car park, leaving Sierra to search for her rented Ferrari,
as she momentarily feels lost as to where she is.
     
    ****
     
    Chad cannot stop thinking about
Sierra during the ride in his Rolls Royce. Her sense of humour, or rather the
lack of it, amused him. His driver’s eyes stare with a controlled concentration
on the road ahead. They go through a route of twists and turns till they reach
their destination.
    They head up a
flight of spiralled stairs that play tricks on the mind. Chad is used to
engaging in illicit affairs, but even he is apprehensive of what awaits him and
his driver at the top of the stairs. The driver walks in front of him, ever the
loyal servant of his boss.
    “Sir, would you
like me to open the door?”
    Chad’s driver
hardly ever smiles but for some odd reason today he has a cocky smile on his
face. Even the scar on his face looks happy. Chad cannot help but smile
hesitantly.
    “Let’s go in, Ricardo!”
    A group of stern-faced
men stare at Chad and his driver. Their poker faces give nothing away as the
men throw daggers with their eyes towards them.
    “Please take a
seat … not you, driver, your boss.”
    Chad takes a
seat on the luxurious leather chair and quickly controls his heartbeat. The
tension is deep and dark. Poker faces are perfected as the men get acquainted.
    “These are the
documents, Mr Perry. With your signature, the five hundred million dollars will
be transferred to your account.”
    As soon as Chad is
about to take the documents, a silver-black-haired older man reminds him of
something important:
    “You do not have
to do this if you do not
