Sold To The Wicked Him

“Brylle Leonard? Isn’t he the cousin of Sir Aiden?”

Looking at the papers of the one that wants to purchase in their company, a familiar name ring a bell in their head.

“Hey, what is the commotion in here?”

“Sir Elton… it’s just… we are checking the list of those who will purchase in us for the Gala… and we saw Sir Brylle’s name… shall we still accept his order?”

Looking at the list as he pick it up from those two, he indeed saw Brylle’s name listed on it.

‘Brylle? He is back?’

Even Elton have no good memory with that guy. He always find suspicions in his every move. For he will always try to hurt Aiden in any single way he can.

‘But Aiden is not someone to do such a child’s trick. Even if we decline him, he will surely find other shops for him to purchase…’

“No, just let him be. But make sure to double the price in any of his orders. If he asks about it, then ask him to buy it in other shops if he can’t afford it”

“Yes Sir Elton”

Bowing their head, they dare not say any words about what he said. It may be biased but what can they do if it was Brylle Leonard they are talking about?

‘He should just buy in his brother’s company. That bastard. What is his goal?’

…

“Lea, wait for me. I need to answer this call”

Fixing their clothes, they are about to go and choose the dress and suit they want to buy. But then Brylle got a call. Waiting, Lea look at her reflection on the mirror in front of her.

Her long hair is so visible on her eyes. Gently touching it… for some reason she thinks of something.

“I am back, let’s go?”

“Brylle… do you think a short hair suits me well?”

Tilting his head, he thinks of her having a short hair. A big smile then curves on his lips.

“Any hairstyle suits you the best, Lea. But you know what suits you the best?”

Tilting her head, there was a small smile on her face. It is how Brylle always act when it was the two of them. He was so kind towards her. He even helped her find out who she really was. But sadly, none of what they were looking for came to light.

“Brylle… I think I know what you are gonna say next”

She slightly giggled. Making a sweet smile on his face, he can’t help but enjoy the very sight.

“I wonder what it was… mind sharing it to me?”

Picking up her sling bag, she smiles and look at the mirror again before heading to where Brylle was.

“As if I would”

“Aw, I was hoping to hear it. But never mind, I am not gonna be tire of waiting… Lea”

Did you ever had someone who treat you so kind? Who treats you like you are a princess that they wants to be their Queen. Who treats you like a precious gem they never want to touch even a dirt? Who treats you the way you wanted to be treated?

Kind, handsome, gentle, and sweet, is there any thing else she would ever wish?

Everything that a girl desires, it is all in Brylle. He likes her, in fact, one can’t even tell if it was still like or if it is already love.

“Alright, why not… let’s head in a salon first? Shall we?”

“Okay”

When that time comes, when the man you are wishing for came. When the man of your dreams appeared waiting for your sweet yes, how long will you let him wait? How much more does he need to prove in order for you to say those words he wants to hear? Is time really important to tell whether that love is true? Because if it is… then how long does it need for it to be called love?

“Here we are”

“Already?”

“Yup, but don’t worry, I didn’t drive fast. I know you feel dizzy if I ever do so”

“Thank you Brylle”

Looking at the parking lot, Brylle saw how Lea was staring at the front of the salon. It was far from where they are but he can still read what the sign says.

“Hairaih Salon”

He whispered after opening the door.

“You can read it?”

“Yes… I can can clearly see it. Why? You can’t read it from here?”

Shaking her head, Lea smiled and get out of the car.

“Hmm… maybe we should go check an optometrist after your haircut”

“But you are using so much money for me… that isn’t fair for you”

“Lea… anything for you. Anything…”

Holding her hands they both head inside.

“Good morning sir, madam”

“Good morning, I would like someone to assist her”

“Sir, we have a promo in our store today. It is open for couples. They will receive a 50% off from their expenses by just promoting our shops. Photos taken would be used as an advertisement. So… if you want to, we can sign you up in our promo. It is a limited offer”

Looking at Lea he smiled gently. Even if he wishes her to be his girlfriend, he does not wish her to think that he wants it so bad. Indeed, he does but, forcing her to be her girlfriend did not ever cross on his mind. He don’t know what was with Lea but there was something in her that makes him change. He is not like this before. He is not someone to give much care to others. But when it comes to her, he can’t help but admit the fact that he can do anything… if it was for Lea.

‘Couple… Lea and me… what a nice words to hear… I also hope it was true. But…’

“Sorry but-”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Yes, please sign us up. Me and my boyfriend would love to participate in your advertisement”

Surprised by her words, Lea look at Brylle only to see him lost in her eyes. As if he heard something he have been wishing for ages. As if he saw something he can’t even describe.

“Congratulations, please follow me for the files you need to sign”

Clapping her hands, the lady can’t help but think how cute of a couple the two could be.

‘I can’t wait to see the advertisement! Why do I feel like I won the lottery?’

“Lea? But…”

Thinking about it, he realizes how she may have done that for the promo. A bit of dismay can be seen on his face.

“Is it for the promo?”

He whispered

“Yes…”

‘Just as I thought…’

“And also no”

Questioning her words, Brylle saw a giggle on her face.

“You’ve been asking me that question and this is my answer. If you change your mind and don’t want me to then…”

Hugging her, he didn’t had the chance to control himself.

‘I’ve been waiting for the right time to tell him this but… I didn’t know I will tell this to him so soon’

A smile can be seen or her face

“Brylle, I can’t breathe”

She jokes as she tap his back that didn’t want to let her go.

“Lea… if you only know how happy I was…”

The lady who didn’t know what happened saw them hugging. Hiding behind the curtain, she was holding the paper they needed to sign for the advertisement.

‘Now how am I supposed to break their sweet moments now??! But they look good together… am I seeing a real life action of a drama series???’

…

“And done, wow, madam, you look much more stunning!”

“Yes, you surely did a good job for that, but Lea is beautiful already. Isn’t she?”

“Yes sir, and you also look more handsome”

Looking at Lea as he showed himself. He also did receive a new haircut.

“Do I?”

Nodding her head she smiled at him which makes him blush.

“Of course I am”

He tried to hide his blushing cheeks with him complimenting himself.

“I hope to see you soon, sir, madam. Sorry if the crew can’t make it today. We will give you the possible schedule and mark what date suits you two the best”

“Yes, Thank you”

Heading out with a new haircut, a short hair suits Lea more. Even Brylle can’t help but stare at her white fresh nape.

“Now I wonder if it was a good idea or not…”

He said slightly shaking his head.

“Brylle? Are you alright?”

“I also wonder”

He said smiling to his ears. Closing the door, he started the engine for them to leave.

“Lea?”

But as the car made a sound, they did not hear that voice calling Lea’s name.

Running to catch up, the lady having a fur covering her shoulder can seen watching the car went away.

“I am sure it was Lea…”

“Madam Estrella, is everything alright?”

“Ah, yes… I think I saw some familiar face”

She mumbled with a cold sweat running down her temple.

‘Is that Lea? But…’
