CHAPTER 6: THE ALLURE OF CELESTE

Sebastian immediately pushed Hannah away, as his eyes rested on Celeste Kensington.

Sebastian's eyes went round and a pang of chaos flushed over him.

Celeste's forehead puckered as she took in the sight of the lady with Sebastian.

Beautiful with blonde hair and she looked sophisticated but Celeste could clearly tell that the dress Hannah wore was a total knockoff, even her shoes and bag were.

She must be the one Sebastian told her parents about how he caught her cheating.

Celeste had eavesdropped on them as she was also curious about the guy who had saved her life.

The look on Celeste's face turned into a disgruntled one as she remembered what she had walked upon.

How dare she kiss Sebastian after what she did to him?

Why was she even here?

"What is going on here?" She asked, her tone sounded assertive.

A line appeared between Hannah's brows as she took in the appearance of the lady in front of her.

Her hair was like silk, flowing and free like it had a life of its own.

Her clothes were visibly luxurious and fine, Hannah was crazy about heels, she marveled at the pairs Celeste had on, 'Luna Serenade', the rare ones that only two were available in the country.

Hannah fixated her gaze on her with a slightly opened mouth.

She couldn't stop pondering on who she was.

Sebastian on the other hand, was in sheer disarray on what to do, he just stood there, not uttering a single word.

"I asked a question! Who are you?" Celeste demanded, her tone sharp and commanding that it made Hannah flinch back to her senses.

She batted her lashes,

"I'm his fiancé," Hannah replied with a stance, and quickly wrapped her arm around Sebastian again,

Sebastian's eyes squinted, he felt infuriated by all her actions.

He rolled his eyes, fed up as he held her hands.

"Leave, please!" He spat at her,

Hannah let out a slight gasp. "What?! Are you going to abandon me because of her? After everything that I did for you?..." Hannah started to shamelessly blurt out,

And that broke the last straw that was holding in Sebastian's Tolerance.

"Stop!" He ordered, his tone loud and with clenched teeth, his brows were snapped together.

"You abandoned me first Hannah! Don't you remember? You called me a loser and chased me out of your home! How dare you stand here and talk about abandoning you, you liar!" He ranted out, he couldn't believe it but his eyes were wet with tears.

Before Hannah could utter any more words, she let out a loud yell of pain as she felt her hair suddenly get pulled back with force, by Celeste.

Celeste's eyes burned with rage.

"Get out of this place! Get out of my hotel!"

She dictated, her voice loud.

Just at that moment, two bulky men in black suits arrived at the scene.

"Take her away from here and never let her step foot into this place again!" She ordered.

The men nodded as they continued to grapple with Hannah who was struggling so much to free herself from their grip, her hair messy and all over her face.

"Let me go! Hey! Stop!... I will be back for you Sebastian! I swear..!" She yelled continuously as she got dragged away.

Celeste let out a little sigh of relief.

She walked over to Sebastian who held a tight-lipped smile on his face, his eyes lit up as he noticed Celeste standing in front of him.

She gave him a slight tap on his shoulders.

"What would you like to have?" He asked, his tone smoky as he walked over to the mini bar in the room.

Celeste was seated on the couch, her gaze fixated on him.

He was a fine man.

Sebastian was a vision of masculine beauty, his features chiseled and refined.

His jet-black curly hair added a touch of charm to his already handsome face and his lips were like a rose in bloom, full and soft.

The clothes he wore fitted his frame like a glove.

He was like a work of art, a masterpiece, and Celeste was captivated by him too much to even blink her eyes.

Celeste swooned. She wanted him.

She imagined herself being wrapped up in that heavenly body of his. 'Ohh'

"Celeste?" Sebastian called, he stood before the mini bar waiting for her response,

"Huh?" Celeste looked up, breaking free from her infatuation.

"What would you like to drink?"

"Um... water, I'm... I'm fine with water," She stuttered, still fluttered.

Sebastian brought the glass of water and placed it on the table before Celeste, just as he looked up, chills went down his spine and he flinched as his eyes rested on Celeste's gazing into him.

"Ar..are you okay?" He muttered, his brows knitted.

Celeste's face lit up with a feigned smile.

"Yea... yea... I'm fine," she uttered, brushing a hand through her hair.

"You look pale. You should have rested a bit more," he said to her with a worried expression on his face.

She beamed.

"I know. I just wanted to thank you once again. And I really wasn't expecting to witness what I did,"

Sebastian let out a weak chuckle as he bent his head down.

"Are.. you okay?" Celeste asked,

Sebastian let out a weary sigh.

"I just feel I was wrong for treating her that way,"

A visible frown appeared on Celeste's face, her forehead creased.

She moved closer to him.

"You did nothing wrong, she deserved all of it," she muttered.

Sebastian turned to nod at her with a small smile curled up on his lips.

'ohh, those lips' Celeste was in a haze,

Sebastian's eyes widened as Celeste suddenly cupped his face with her hands, her face so close to his that he could literally feel her breath on his face.

And with just a little unintended blink, he felt Celeste's lips on his.

Immediately, without wasting a second, he jerked up on his feet, away from Celeste who just stared at him, confusion and hurt in her eyes.

Two forced kisses in just a half day!

Way to go Sebastian!

"I don't... um..." He was utterly speechless and baffled.

He tried to find the right words to say at the moment but nothing. It was like his head suddenly went blank.

Celeste stood up to her feet, she moved closer to Sebastian.

"We are both adults. We know what we want. I want you and I'm sure you want me too."

'not really' Sebastian feigned a tiny smile,

"We shouldn't be doing this," he muttered,

"Your parents have helped me so much, I don't want to disappoint them,"

"It's okay, They won't find out," Celeste breathed,

and with her eyes closed, her arms wrapped around Sebastian's neck who didn't even try to resist this time, she covered Sebastian's lips with hers... Again.
