Madeline's POV
"Bestie, I believe in you now, sorry but a while ago, I thought you were making up a story to test if I am going to believe in you because I am your best friend, but I can tell by the way he is gazing at you, Hunter Divenson has so feelings for you." Gina whispered in my ear as my husband to be strides towards us. I was suddenly confused about what I should do now that he catch spending ti with my friend. Hunter stood in front of our table, and then he turned his gaze to Gina, and he smiled at my friend with his sweet signature smile that made her flush. I know Hunter is handso, but I never thought even my best friend would be drooling over him.
"Aren't you going to introduce to your friend, Madeline?" He asked and smiled at .
"Hunter, this is Gina, my best friend. Gina ets Hunter Divenson." I said awkwardly, then he extended his hand to Gina, and he pulled out a chair, and he sits across from . And I can't control my stupid heart to be so affected by his presence, and I hate myself for looking at his sexy red lips. I long to feel the softness of his lips on my mouth. What is wrong with ? Why am I thinking of kissing Hunter in front of my friend? I avoided his intense gaze, and I turn my head to look at Gina. And I am stunned that my best friend is still gaping at him without fluttering her yes. I nudge my friend, and that is the only ti she flicks her eyes and smiled at Hunter.
"Hello, I am Gina. I am sorry if I turned into a stone, I can't believe you know my best friend, and of course, I am srized by your handsoness." Gina declared, and I know my friend she will always speak what is in her mind, and that is one of the things I love her the most, but I wouldn't say I like it if she will be like this in front of him because I am so afraid if she is going to tell him what I truly felt. Then the most unusual thing happened, Hunter Divenson laughs. I am surprised to hear his laughter, and it sounds so wonderful to my ear. Then I can't stop my heart from racing when he took my hand and stroked it.
"I am his fiance, and since you are Madeline's best friend, I assu you are the Maid of Honor on our wedding day, am I right, Maddie?" He asked while he is still stroking my hand, and I am trying my best to speak because it seems I lost my ability to speak because of the sensations that I felt from his touch. I can feel butterflies on my stomach, and his touch alone ignites the electricity in my entire body.
"Yes, that is why I am eting her today," I replied.
"Yeah, I just found out when I keep calling your phone, and you didn't even bother to answer, and when I called Calixto, he said you are not with him. I thought you had a driving lesson with him. My sweet Madeline, you can text and call so that I will know where you are. I am just a little disappointed that you trusted my right hand and not your fiance." He declared, and his acting seems so natural. I get it all now. If we are in front of anyone, he will act sweet and warm towards , but every ti we are alone, he will go back to his original cold self.
Well, if this is the only ti we can be sweet to each other, I will better make the most of it. Gina is correct; the only way to win his heart is by seducing him, but I am not even sure if he feels sothing for , and I hope my best friend was right about her assumptions that Hunter is into .
"I am sorry, Hunter, I know you are a busy man, and I don't want to disturb you," I answered, and he looks at in the eyes. I am confused with the unreadable expressions I can see on his face, and I admire his ability to hide his genuine emotions.
"Next ti, I want you to tell where do you want to go, Maddie, so I can drive or asked the driver at the Divension Mansion to drive you, but you don't need to worry that your car will arrive tomorrow. Why didn't you tell you have a driver's license, and you know how to drive?" He asked, and I find it hard to answer him.
"I don't think having a driver's license is necessary or one of the prerequisites of marrying you," I answered, and I know I sound sarcastic because I can't stop myself from rembering Calixto's words. He only wants so he can have an heir. And I hate myself more because why I am hoping Hunter will marry for another reason.
"Madeline, I need to know because I want to provide you anything that you need because I am going to be your husband soon." He said and smiled sweetly at , and I know he is upset because I answered him sarcastically.
"I would like to take this opportunity to ask you, Gina, to co to Divenson mansion tomorrow if you have extra ti because the couturier will co tomorrow for your asurents, and Madeline can discuss with her the design of the gown she wants. Our wedding is simple, yet I was hoping you could choose your gown, Maddie, and I guess Gina can help you decide what design and fabric you want. I only want Maid of Honor and Best Man." He declared.
"I already invited your aunt and cousin. They are your only family, Maddie, and I know you are still upset about her, but do you even hate your aunt, now that you see and et ?" He asked, and the way he looked at penetrates my inner core. I want to tell him I love what I see right now, and I even want to taste his lips and feel his touch, but I can't even utter a single word.
"Well, I presu your silence ans you don't hate your aunt that you et . It is nice to see you, Gina. I still have a eting to attend to, and Calixto will drive you ho, Maddie. I am sorry, I want to drive you ho, but I need to go back to the office." He said and stood up, and Gina and I raised from our chairs, and before I can say goodbye, Hunter moves closer to , and he lay his hand on my waist and pulled closer to him, and I can't stop myself from looking up and find his srizing eyes looking at my lips. My stomach flipped, and I felt like jelly. I think I lose my strength to stand up because his touch and stares made feel so weak.
"See you later at the mansion, Maddie." He spoke in more than a whisper, and before I can answer him, he captured my mouth and savored my lips, just like the way I want it. We kissed like we are the only ones standing inside the cafe, and by the ti he let go, I am out of breath. I can feel my entire face turned so red.
"Bye, my sweet Madeline, goodbye, Gina. He said and turned his heels away from us while I am left standing on the ground biting my lower lip, and I felt Gina tugged the hem of my dress, which is when I get back on my chair.
"Wow! He is way too hot and more handso up close, and when did you get so lucky, Madeline? I am ecstatic for you, and by the way, I see it; he likes you, Madeline." She said, still looking at the glass door even if we can no longer see him.
"I don't know, Gina, and I am not even sure if I am lucky or unfortunate." I replied.
"Stop saying that. Do you realize being kissed by Hunter Divenson is more than enough to be lucky, and if you want, I can ex-change places with you in a heartbeat? Just tell , and I will do it." My best friend said, and she released a heavy sigh, and I laugh.
"Do you think I will let you kiss him, Gina? Over my dead body." I answered her.
"Just what I thought." She replied, and we both laugh.
"Kidding aside, Madeline, I am so envious of you; how can your life turned out this way, but I am glad for you, and I can't wait to see the Divenson mansion and et his family." She said and smiled at .
"Gina, loving Hunter is not that easy. And you better brace yourself if you want to et his family, but I am excited to introduce you to Lily. She is the youngest in the family, and she is the only one who loves . Lily is adorable, and I am sure you will like her too." I replied.
"Well, never mind them, Madeline. As long as Hunter is in love with you, there is nothing to be worried about." She said, and I shook my head.
"I need a miracle to make it happen, Gina." I replied.
"If you won't believe , that he likes you, it is all up to you, Maddie, but I am so happy for you, my friend." She said, beaming at .
"Thank you so much for inviting to your wedding, and I can't wait to see you walk down the aisle. Who could have thought that my best friend who has no dating experience will be married ahead of ? And not only that, you are marrying the most handso and CEO of the Divenson Mining Corporation. This news is the most epic information I have ever heard, Maddie, and being your best friend, I felt like I am the one who is getting married because I can't contain my excitent. I couldn't be happier." She declared, and I can see the happiness on her face, and I can't stop myself from smiling.
"Thank you, Gina." I said, and we both get up from our chairs, and then we go out of the cafe; she sends to Calixto's car, and I said goodbye to my friend.. I hugged her before I get inside Cal's car, and I feel so much better after I talked with my best friend, and I can still feel the euphoria that I felt after I shared a hot kiss with Hunter, and I can't wait to et him later tonight at the mansion.
