Chapter 93: Embarrassed

As Nora clutched her phone to her chest, the traitor Isabella called again, almost tempting her to throw the phone into the water basin! As she watched him standing there in almost all his naked glory, she prayed that he had not heard much. However, she knew it was going to be useless because he’d already made his opinion clear about having her kneel in front of him.

Demetri walked towards her indifferently, leaning in close as he slowly brushed his slightly bristled cheek against her soft ones," So, when are you going to devote yourself to me?"

Nora felt herself shake! Dam* it he had heard everything!!!! While Nora was still in a daze, Demetri turned around and walked towards his room. However, he stopped there and turned to look at her, his eyes unfathomable," Now I know what you want to learn next. Don’t worry kitten... I’ll teach you how to be on your knees and pledge devotion.

This time Nora felt as if she had suddenly spiked a fever, her face as red as a tomato. Nora came back to her senses and sighed, she was definitely going to die of embarrassment!

Thankfully, Nora did not have to think about leaving the country or the world for much longer as she was then busy the whole day preparing for the evening as she was dropped off to some salon.

As an army of people pampered and prepped her, some even being bold enough to whisper about the love bites that she had painfully tried to cover, Nora’s day passed in a blur and it was evening.

Her hair had been gathered and tied up in a loose, effortless knot at the nape of her neck, with only a few tendrils of hair gently framing her face. Nora could hardly believe her look as she stared in the mirror. The hairstyle and make up was so perfectly done, drawing attention to her radiant smile and the graceful curve of her neck. She’d always acknowledged herself to be pretty enough but tonight, suddenly she felt beautiful. As she turned to thank the stylist, the person brought in the dress that she was to wear tonight and her breath caught in her throat. It was so beautiful.

The assistant smiled at the young girl’s expression and offered softly," Miss, would you like some help with the dress?"

As Demetri stood outside, waiting for Nora to emerge, he could not help but glare at his watch. Even though they were not yet late, he did not want to give his grandfather a chance to grumble some more. Just then the assistant emerged from the private room and offered to him," Ma’am is now ready, sir."

As Demetri marched inside impatiently, he almost stumbled at the door. Nora Williams had turned from a little duckling into a swan. The draped bodice of her gown accentuated her curves. As she walked towards him, the sequins, beads, and pearls on the gown caught the light, making her shine like a star, with every step she took.

The daring patterned slit on each side of her waist, revealed enough just to tease his imagination, and he could see the slight mark of the love bite he had given her. But what caught his attention at the way she graciously moved, a vision of grandness and allure.

For a moment, he was thrown back into the past memories, reminded of someone else, just as beautiful and confident and a hint of sorrow passed through his eyes. However, by the time Nora came to stand before him, he had already composed his emotions.

Nora looked up at Demetri and bent her knees as if giving a courtesy. With a smile, she teased," Do I look like a little fairy that has just descended from the heavens? I certainly feel like one!"

Demetri smiled at that. She certainly looked enchanting. However, instead of saying the words, his fingers deftly slipped into his pocket and retrieved a small, elegant velvet box. The pale pink diamonds inside sparkled in the soft ambient light, their allure rivalling the gown she wore.

Nora felt her breath catch as she noticed the beautiful diamond necklace. She watched in awe, as he picked up the necklace and walked behind her. The necklace settled into place, and she could not help but shiver as she felt their coldness against her hot skin. As he fastened the delicate clasp around her neck, his fingers brushed against her skin, sending a shiver of anticipation through her. She felt him place a small butterfly kiss on her nape and felt her knees go weak.

His hands on her shoulders, carefully slid down her arms, brushing against the side of her waists before settling on her bared skin at the waist. His fingers gently traced the triangular slit, making her shudder as he leaned in close and complimented," You look like my own little personal fairy."

He offered his hand to her and she placed her hand in his with utmost trust. Slowly, he pulled her close to his body and she could feel the heat of his body almost encompassing her. His hand moved around her back, settling on the side of her waist possessively as they walked out of the salon towards the car.

As Nora and Demetri walked towards the waiting car, their every step exuded an air of elegance and confidence, drawing the attention of everyone around them. Nora’s hand rested gracefully in Demetri’s, while he held her close with a possessive yet tender touch, his fingers lightly grazing her waist as they moved in sync.

Whispers and murmurs followed them as they passed by, the onlookers unable to contain their awe at the sight of this captivating couple. Conversations buzzed with speculations and admiration, as people murmured, "They look like they stepped out of a romance novel. One is handsome while the other is captivating."

While Nora was too conscious of his touch and paid no attention to the whispers, Demetri’s eyes hardened as he heard this showing his unhappiness.
