Chapter 4: A Wolf in Sheep's clothing

" Care to talk now? " The lady said in a condescending tone, if one looked closer they would be able to notice the hidden irritation in her stunning eyes.

To be forced out of her own limo to stand so close to such a repulsive area would be humiliating to anyone with a prominent status like her's.

" Of course, Why wouldn't i when such a goddess has decided to grace me with her presence?" Antonio reached out his left hand to hold hers before giving a light bow and gently kissing her fair hand.

' This lady isn't simple....'

He stared into the ladies eyes afterwards to see her reaction after having been kissed by such an untidy fellow like himself only to feel skeptical when he noticed that her expression was still as calm as ever.

" Ahem, Care to introduce yourself, I might not look knowledgeable but isn't it a form of etiquette to introduce one's self on arrival?" Antonio said after giving an awkward cough.

_Does this pauper have a death wish?!, Not only does he dare to touch her but he's even so brazen as to rebuke Young miss Romanoff!_ The chauffeur felt his body which was overcome by shock, Being covered by perspiration. As someone who worked for the young miss he knew about her cold and ruthless personality.

She didn't take kindly towards anyone, especially those who dared to disrespect her.

" Of course, It must've slipped my mind, please do forgive me" The lady or should I say miss Romanoff spoke calmly.

' Wait what? ' Antonio's smile froze for a moment when he heard her words, To his amazement the lady wasn't even displeased in the slightest, instead she revealed an apologetic smile.

" I am Lady Natasha Romanoff, Heiress to the prestigious Romanoff family, it's a pleasure to meet you Sir?" Natasha gave a polite curtsey as a form of greeting, Yet her latter words made Antonio flinch abit

" It's Antonio Silverstone and the pleasures is all your's" Antonio's expression darkened a bit since he didn't expect her to turn his words against him.

' What's up with this girl, Why's she so nice all of a sudden ' Antonio began to feel unsettled as if something was definitely wrong.

" Formalities aside lady Romanoff, Care to tell me why someone as prestigious as yourself would come looking for a humble man such as myself "

" Well i don't think this is a matter to be discussed outside in the open, Would you care to join me for a moment in my limo instead "

" Forgive me dear but am afraid I must refuse, I see no reason to soil the seats of your fine vessel so please go on am all ears " Antonio insisted.

" But I don't mind, I'd appreciate it if you'd seat instead "

" Am sorry but I really must insist.." Antonio shrugged his shoulders with a helpless look on his face.

For the first time ever a frown appeared on Natasha's face but only for a short moment before retaining her original look.

She stared at him in silence before turning towards her chauffeur. " Leave us.."

" Of course Lady Romanoff" The man heeded her words and returned to the limo.

' What a straight forward woman..., She really is a persistent one isn't she.'

" You really are a persistent one aren't you " Antonio covered his lower face with his right hand while chuckling. He wasn't expecting Natasha to actually comply to his requests so quickly.

" Depends on whether you're finally willing to hear me out "

" Hahahaha why not, Since it's clear you won't be leaving me alone anytime soon, I might as well get this over with" He rummaged through his hair with his right hand while giving Natasha a hysterical look.

Unfortunately for him Natasha wasn't the least bit frightened nor swayed, instead her lips arched barely as if she was trying her best to mask a smile of her own. " Great then, I take it you won't shy away from my request like a coward "

" Trying to egg me on won't have any effect so out with it, What do you really want–"

" Marry Me "

"!!!!?"

Antonio subconsciously took a few steps backwards as if he'd heard wrong, His eyes widened with disbelief for he never expected to hear such word's to come from the lady before him.

He'd just taken another step when he missed his step, Falling butt first on the floor. " This!..." Antonio's eye's squinted into a sharp gaze yet he suddenly felt his body growing weaker.

" I see the drugs finally taking effect, For a pauper you sure are a resistant one aren't you " A smug smirk made it's way onto Natasha's face, Her eyes gave of a devilish glow as she stared down on Antonio who was glaring daggers at her.

" When did you..." Antonio wanted to ask but he felt his tongue quickly turning numb, For the first time ever, Antonio began to feel apprehensive towards the woman standing before him.

Natasha tucked back a stray strand of her behind her ear while making her way towards him. " You really need to be careful about who's hands you grace with those lips of yours " She replied.

Frightened, Antonio turned his hand only to see an extremely small cut on one of his index finger. " When did she‽ " He wanted to curse but he felt his eyes growing even more heavier by the second.

He struggled to shift backwards, His rear still skidding on the floor as he glared at Natasha who was closing the distance between them faster than he could move.

" What do you want... " Antonio who realized that he couldn't escape due to the numbing effect spreading through his body decided to ask.

Since she opted to use a paralysis drug, It at least meant that she had no intentions of ending his life at the moment. With that in mind, The best he could do right now was try and bargain his way out.

" If she's capable enough then she'll definitely ask for me to sign a 'slave contract' with her, But that's easier said than done. I'd rather die than do such a thing " Antonio reassured himself.
