Under His Protection

Chpater 22



“You look more beautiful in person than what they describe you princess” Aiden chipped in with a sexy smile.

“You wish to talk to me your Excellency” Michael address to Jadua directly, ignoring the rest completely.

“Yes Michael” Jadua finally spoke, he stood from his chair and walked directly to him, ” let’s talk outside”

On hour later Michael carefully closed the door of his old bedroom behind him, mentally preparing himself for the party ahead. This was the last thing he wanted to do, given a chance to Stand around while men try their best to flirt with Laura Van-Lerie.

It took him every ounce of his self control to stop himself from assulting those men and bury their bodies somewhere in the estate, Now he need to ensure thesame thing and what is worse was the meeting he had with Jadua a while ago who instructed him to keep an eagle eye on his daughter.

Now he have to watch closely while men tries to flirt with the princess, Michael sworw to himself that if any one made Laura smile twice in the party thst man would end up in the creek lifeless, his expression turned grimly when he remembered the guy her Excellency introduced her daughter to.

It seems that woman was pairing her friend’s son to her daughter, worse of all that bastard was handsome and he is a bother.

He was about to walk in the hallways when he nearly jumped in his place, as her Excellency spoke behind him.” oh no Michael, you are not going to wear that In my party. A big NO”

“Your Excellency” he greeted her casually while she was aware of his racing heart, she really stratled him, heck! He didn’t even hear her walk in the silent hallway, ” what brings you here?” He asked her.

Trisha smiled at him brightly, ” I brought you something” she thrust the tuxedo placed in a wooden hanger before him, ” wejr this tonight”

Michael looked at the suit in her hand that was stretched forward, ” This dress iam putting on is fine your Excellency”

She shook her head resolutely, ” Nope, you can’t wear that, iam afraid but I want to see the female guest drool at the handsome bodyguard of Laura”

Michael eyes narrowed in her direction, he knew that whenever this woman was involved into something, there is nothing good at the outcome. He thinks she was forcing him to play with her string and it seems to him she was planing something eveil tonight which is her birthday and he is one of her pawn.

Michael stared at her for few seconds, ” Thanks for the offer your Excellency, but I more comfortable with my clothes”

“I will not leave until you wear this, I personally bought this tux for you” she said obstinately, ” the ball is in your court but I will tell you iam not going anywhere until you wear this and I hope you will make the right decision if you don’t want my husband to suspect that iam having an affair with you, since I spent the night in the hallway with you”

Michael stared at her in disbelief, ” where the heck did she get that notion? Trisha is really handful and he really pity his excellency to fall for such a woman as this.

“Are you being serious?”

Trisha nodded with a wicked smile in her face,” very, me srw you going to wear this or Jadua will have to suspect that we are having an affair since I will not leave this place and iam sure he would come looking for me”

Michael shook his head, ” this is ridiculous your Excellency” he informed her, shaking his head in disbelief.

The maddening woman merely raised her eyebrow in his direction, Micheal knew she was not going to stop until she gets what she wanted, Trisha won’t back down without wining. Michael eyed her for a moment while she did thesame only that she has a smile of victory already on her face, after a moment he broke the eye contact and admitted that he lost the battle, ” Alright your Excellency, you win”

She gave a self satisfied smile as she pushed the expensive tuxedo in his hand, ” now change and I will wait here. Five minutes”

Feeling annoyed that Trisha was more persistent than he first thought, he lost the battle within minutes when she took No for an answer. Michael went back to his room to change his regular coat and tie the fine garment, after few minutes he went out to find her Excellency patiently waiting for him In the hallway.

Trisha clicked her tongue upon seeing him emerging from his room, she eyed him from head to toe, ” just as I thought, you are far more devastatingly handsome as I thought in fine clothes, iam sure Laura…. I mean the ladies in the party will drool at the sight of you, I bet a good amount of panties will drop upon seeing you”

“Your Excellency….”

She grinned at him evily, ” Enough said Michael, now do your job as a bodyguard and bring me safely to my husband’s side”

“Can I just tell you that you are far more demanding than his Excellency, when I was still working for him” he informed her as they started to walk in the hallway.

“Iam flattered then”

He couldn’t help but to laugh, Trisha was really something else, no wonder the womanizing Jadua feel head over heels in love with her, she was probably the only woman who could keep him on his toes, Trisha Van-Lerie was one dangerous woman”

“Iam glad that you are finally back Michael” Trisha stated after a long silence.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Michael glanced at her slightly, he was caught off gaurd with her statement, he didn’t think he heard what she just said, ” I beg your pardon ma’am….”

The signature devilish smirk was back in her face, it occurred to him that she doesn’t have any plans to elaborate or repeat her earlier statement, from the look in her face he could tell that she just want to toture him by thinking what she meant by her last statement.

Michael didn’t have the chance to ask her again since they arrive at the progressing garden party, as he thought the party was now I’m full swing and the elites of the society were present at the birthday party of the mischievous Trisha Van-Lerie.

“Can you spot my husband?” Trisha asked looking around in search for her husband, ” iam sure he is already looking for me, as of now he might be thinking iam plotting something evil again, I need you to find him before he lost his nuts”

Michael tried to locate her husband in the crowd but it wasn’t His Excellency that he spotted immediately, it was his daughter. A scowled formed In his eyebrows.

“It seems like Aiden and Laura are getting along well, iam beyond happy” Trisha announced with a pleasant tone in her voice, she was also aware of the two people at the far end of the Marquee.

Michael eyes narrowed considerably when he saw Aiden dipped his head and whispered something in Laura’s ears.

What an unpardonable crime!
