"How are we going to get into a mall at this hour?" Lita asked a little annoyed about what happened in the car.
"Do I need passes to my own mall?" He asked answering her question with a question.
"Your mall?" Lita asked in disbelief.
Zeke just walked passed her ignoring what she said, he walked straight to a dress.
The dress looked like what a royal queen wears, it's sparkled so bright that it was blinding. Lita was in awe of the dress as she remembered that it was one of the many dresses her best friend used to show her that she wanted to buy.
Lita's friend Amber was a rich badass total opposite of her. Most people mistook her for a calm and reserved girl because of her name but they were wrong. She was a party queen known across cities for her beauty and strong love for party.
Amber was rich, Lita was poor.
Amber was confident, Lita was reserved.
Amber loved going out, Lita didn't.
Most people whispered about them calling Amber a stingy friend who couldn't even give her friend money but the truth was Lita hated asking Amber for money, she didn't want people to say she was only friends with Amber for her money.
"Yo.....you want me to wear that?" Lita asked shocked just staring at the dress Zeke pointed to
"Put on the dress we are running late" Zeke said uninterested in any question she had to ask as he looked down at his watch like time was more precious to me than anything.
Lita picked the dress just looking at it still in awe but quickly ran to change when she saw that the human like statue behind her was already glaring sending chills down her spine.
"Tell her to be quick" Zeke ordered the chauffeur who was the only with them inside the mall.
"Sure thing sir" the man said with a little bow.
*Knocks*
"Miss, Mr Graves said I should tell you to hurry" the chauffeur said from the other end of the door.
"O.... ok I'll be out in a minute" Lita replied the chauffeur.
*Sighs heavily*
"You can do this, it's just for a year and grandma can finally be ok" Lita encouraged herself preparing her mind for the journey to come.
Lita came out of the room she was in, the dress looked like it was made for her and no one else. The room glowed adding to her beautiful features making her curves very attractive.
"Ho...how does it look?" Lita ask the man that looked like he was staring at her curves for a milli second just a second before he stood up.
Zeke cleared his throat,"Let be on our way" he said before walking straight to the exit of the mall.
Lita followed just replaying the look on his face when she came out if the dressing room, "Was he staring?" she asked in a tone so low it could be only audible to her ears.
The silence was chocking and deafening, Lita turned to look at the statue beside her as she wondered if this was worth it, she knew she could just ask her friend for the money without doing this but she wanted to earn her own money but was this really worth it.
"Stop staring" the statue beside her finally spoke making her subconsciously look away
"S..sorry" she managed to say turning to the window.
The view outside looked glamorous and beautiful, the stars twinkled in the sky making it look like heaven only found in dreams she got lost in the daze before the car abruptly came to a stop.
"We are here sir" the chauffeur sai turning to the the statue beside Lita.
"Good" was all he said as he got down from the car.
Lita's heart suddenly started beating fast again like she just knew that his mom wouldn't accept her.
"Need to be told what to do" Zeke asked looking a little scarier than before like he didn't want be here.
"I..I'm scared....Zeke" she said holding her chest tight "I...I wasn't prepared for this" she continued panting.
Zeke pinched the skin between his brows trying to calm himself down.
*Sigh*
"Just do your best" Zeke said still sounding dominant even if he tried hard not to but what could he do he didn't know how to calm someone or sympathize.
Lita sighed heavily before getting down from the car.
"Okay, I'll try" Lita replied
The Grave mansion was magnificent more like a Castle than mansion, anyone who saw the house would know just from the outside that the house was a masterpiece. The outside was painted grey, as they walked in the light was so bright Lita had to close her eyes for a second before walking in.
In the house they were two stairs at the end of each side each one leading to the upstairs,the stairs were painted gold with maid standing at each end. The outside could not compare to the inside everywhere looked so castle like.
"That way" Zeke said snapping Lita back to reality.
The parlour was amusing as all the chairs looked like thrones, the position of the Graves were known by the size of the thrones.
Sitting on the king's throne was Mrs Graves from afar she looked liked someone who was still young and sexy but upclose she looked deadly and dangerous like a devil structuring her next plan.
Then there was Cole Graves the second son, Zeke's younger brother he looked equally scary and dominant as Zeke but there was something about Zeke that screamed danger something about his aura that sends chills and makes you want to run.
Then Anderson Graves the youngest son,
Anderson looked like a calm soul he didn't look dangerous at all like a different being from is entire family. They all didn't smile but he did, he gave her a smile that was so bright the sun could get jealous, he had this air around him that could makes anyone feel cozy and comfortable.
"Dinner is ready" a maid announced as everyone walked to the dinner table, the olace was silent for a minute or two before Mrs Graves finally spoke "And who do we have with us today" Mrs Graves asked looking at Zeke.
"Another harem I see" Cole said interrupting.
Zeke turned to cole glaring at him like he was the last human on this earth that he wanted to hear speaking.
"Your daughter-in-law" Zeke answered still staring at Cole.
