Chapter 2

  • Luciana quickly changed into her dress and wore nude color gladiator sandals that reached her ankles. Luciana was not someone who was fond of heels. Without wearing any makeup she ran downstairs as she grabbed a pink ribbon to tie her hair. Luciana tied her hair to a low ponytail while her short hair strands hung through her shoulders.
  • “You’re ready?” Luciana’s father asked as she nodded at him with a smile.
  • “My little princess is gorgeous” He came to Lucinda and kissed her forehead and at the same time her mother also came down. Luciana’s mother was a beautiful woman and Luciana was so much like her the only difference is she had green eyes as her father.
  • “You look gorgeous honey” Luciana’s father kissed her mother’s forehead as her mother started to blush like a high school girl.
  • “Let’s go” They left the house.
  • They arrived at the ballroom and Luciana’s eyes were searching for someone that she hadn't seen before. She was trying to find the most handsome man who was present there but to her disappointment she didn’t see that kind of handsome man.
  • “Lucy” Lina ran towards her and wrapped her arm around Lucy’s arm with a smile. Lucy looked at Lina and suddenly she wanted to laugh because of her dress.
  • “Why are you half naked?” Luciana asked with a chuckle and Lina pressed her lips together with displeasure.
  • “I liked it so I wore it.” Luciana sighed and nodded but she didn’t want Lina to seduce Zane because Lina always seduced men.
  • “Zane Knight, is mine okay?” Suddenly Luciana spoke with a serious voice and Lina looked at her with a shocked face and then she laughed.
  • “I don’t want him. What the hell? I don’t want a soldier to be my man” Lina simply said as she patted Luciana’s shoulder. Then they took their seats as the function started. Luciana became impatient because she was waiting till Zane arrived. Uncle Henry was also there but she didn’t see his son. Finally after waiting for almost one hour Zane Knight arrived.
  • Luciana’s heart skipped a beat as she looked at the man who just entered the ballroom. Wearing the military uniform that high rank soldiers wear and it was so similar to uncle Henry’s uniform. His jet black hair was neatly combed back and his black eyes were sharp and calm. Everyone’s gaze fell on him and the whole ballroom went pin drop silence, Only could hear the sound of Zane’s military boots. Every man and woman who was present there saw him after seeing him after seven years. He was the great general Henry Knight’s only son. Everyone knew that Zane is also following in his father’s footsteps and becoming a legend like his father.
  • Luciana found herself staring at the man who just arrived like he was a god. He is just handsome and he’s just something beyond her expectation. Without noticing Zane has already walked towards the stage and at the same time Luciana’s father and Uncle Henry got up from their seats and walked towards the stage.
  • “Fucking hell look at him.. Oh my god” Luciana heard Lina’s annoying voice but she was busy watching the man who was standing on the stage like a greek god.
  • Luciana watched Zane as his eyes simply scanned through the ballroom and then his eyes met her eyes and he stared into her eyes for a few seconds before moving away. His eyes were gorgeous but yet sharp as a hawk. He has the look of both predator, and prey. Luciana’s heartbeat ridiculously increased as his eyes fell on her. She bit her lower lip and watched his handsomeness. She started to describe his handsomeness for herself.
  • He was tall and his height was almost six feet and four inches. His body was so good with his strong muscles. With a sharp jawline and thin sexy lips his features were just fabulous. The most attractive feature was his eyes. They were just like the galaxy and one could get lost in it easily. All Luciana could do was sit there and admire his handsomeness.
  • “I like pretty things” She smiled brightly and murmured. Only she could hear what she said.
  • She watched his every movement as her father named him as the new general of their county. His face didn’t have a hint of a smile. He just nodded at his president and took the position as he vowed. So attractive. His voice was just cold and deep, Luciana found herself getting addicted to his voice even if she heard a few sentences from him.
  • “His voice could make a woman pregnant. Damn, I like him” Luciana’s eyes turned cold as she heard Lina’s words.
  • “Don’t you dare. That man is mine. You got it?” Luciana looked at Lina with her scary eyes and threatened her. Lina just nodded her head while biting her lips and looked away. Luciana felt satisfied with Lina’s actions because she knew Lina was scared of her.
  • After everything was done with Zane’s new position he got down from the stage and sat at the table beside Lucinda’s one. As soon as he sat, Luciana’s heart was covered with displeasure because she couldn’t see him clearly so she quickly leaned her head against the table and looked at him but she could only see his side profile.
  • “Lucy what the hell man? Are you staring at a man like that? Where’s your lady-like attitude?” Lina’s annoying voice came against her ear and that made Luciana look at her.
  • “I don’t need a lady-like attitude to look at my man. You better shut your mouth and stay. Humph” Lina pressed her lips together and nodded because she knew there’s no way she could stop her best friend’s stubborn attitudes. Lina watched her friend again lean against the table and look at the man. Lina shook her head helplessly and looked away.
  • While Luciana was watching Zane, Zane felt someone’s burning glaze on him and he looked in the direction and saw a gorgeous girl looking at him with a cute smile. Zane noticed it’s the same emerald eyes that caught his attention while he was scanning through the ballroom. Suddenly the girl’s cheek turned red and he knew she was blushing because he was looking at her.
  • He examined her features and he found she was so freaking gorgeous. Fair skin, dark brown long hair, emerald eyes and pink plump lips. He looked at her lips for a while and wanted to feel her lips. He could tell from one look that she wasn’t wearing any makeup. She was pretty and cute. Zane’s heartbeat quickened and he quickly looked away from her and focused on the stage and listened to his president’s speech but yet he felt her eyes on him.
  • Time passed and it was time for dinner.
  • “Zane, Greet everyone” Zane’s father came and patted his shoulder as he nodded at him.
  • “Yes father” With that he followed his father but his eyes were looking for someone and he found her. He watched her and his heart filled with a pleasant feeling because she was just cute. Wearing a pink short frock and her hair was tied to a low ponytail with a pink color ribbon.
  • “Zane, it’s been years. You’ve become so tall” He retracted his gaze from the little girl and looked at the graceful woman who just spoke.
  • “Madam” He greeted his president’s wife and nodded with a small smile. After greeting every leader who presents there Zane found his friend, Shawn was flirting with a girl. He sighed and walked towards him.
