How will Jace allow such an opportunity to slip away? "I want you to meet my brother," he told her holding her wrist in a gentle but firm grip. He pulled her towards his brother with Debby following close behind them.

Liam glanced at Rose's sister, Anna for a couple of seconds before following the restaurant manager who came to welcome them specially into the elevator. If only his brother knew Anna's identity, he would not get involved with her and he was not going to be person to tell him because his father was also quiet about it.

One of the reasons he did not take her life was because his father had plans for her and he did not want to sabotage his father's plan. The other was because he had she was nice to Rose. He decided to stay calm till she dares to harm Rose. He trusted his self-control but he was not sure he was not going to put a knife into the girl's throat if he stays close to her.

Anna felt very uncomfortable around Jace's older brother. The man had a normal cold aura but the look her gave her despite not holding much emotions, made her feel like a lamb about to get slaughtered. She gulped and pulled Jace back.

.

"I am really not going to have lunch with your brother so take your hand off," she warned him coldly as that was the only way she could get this thick skinned friend of hers to know she was serious.

Jace's jaw dropped at that, Anna might be a fearless miss but she had never spoken to him in such manner before and from what he saw he knew she might bash his head against the wall if he does not let go of her hand.

He released her hand immediately. "Why?"

"I don't know your brother."

"Yeah," Debby said nodding in an over-dramatic manner. She was happy earlier that Jace pulled Anna, at least she will get to see more of this peerless beauty but she could imagine how awkward the lunch will be with Jace's brother. She and Anna loved talking a lot and that man's presence though beautiful, will simply make them have indigestion because it was just too intimidating.

"Oh, then get to know him," Jace tried to persuade them. The first time Anna took the initiative to have lunch with him, was ruined by his brother.

"I don't want to know him," Anna answered in a colder manner. "Let us go Debby," Anna said and walked away with her friend following her behind while Jace watched them leave helplessly.

When Jace turned to the elevator, he found the door closed and his brother had long gone. Groaning, he scolded his brother on his mind saying all the things he would have said if his brother was not as scary as he was. If only he knew the reason why Anna came to meet them he would have . . .

Anna sighed for the seventh time since they returned to their car and Debby followed her and sighed too. Debby was happy Anna did not carry out her foolish plan or they might be six foot below the ground or thrown into the ocean as food for sharks.

Anna was cursing all the photographers who took the pictures she saw on internet of Liam. He was way different form attractive young man in the pictures. She knew from rumors that he was scary and distant but she concluded it was not that bad when she saw the pictures because all she saw was a handsome young man but when facing him in person, she really thought he was going to strangle her.

His gaze when their eyes met still sent shivers down her spine it was as though his gaze had tentacles stretching out to her neck, wrapping themselves around her neck till she gets strangled to death. It was suffocating. She wondered why Jace was different.

If she had to eat lunch under that same gaze, she doubts her sanity will remain intact. She might begin crying or at worse simply run out of the room.

"Are you okay?" Debby asked her friend who she could not believe was the same confident young girl serious about talking to Liam.

"I am okay. I wonder what made me come up with such senseless idea," Anna answered staring out of the window with horror boldly written on her face. "Now I know how powerful the Hart family is," she said truthfully.

It seemed staying with the jovial overly friendly Jace had made her assume the Harts were not as scary as everyone thought they were. She remembered the dinner they with the head of the family and he did not seem to be the ruthless powerful business man the rumors said he was.

As she stared at traffic outside the window of the car, she could not help but pity her sister who showed she liked that cold blooded human being she got to meet today. She felt her sister did not have a place with the young male god. She began calculating a planning how to help her sister to get over the crush she had on him.

If only she knew the position Rose held in the young master's heart . . .

"Don't tell anyone about today, please," Anna asked her friend. It won't be good if her sister found out and she remembered the excited look Jace wore when he saw them, she did not want him to feel disappointed.

"Sure," Debby nodded immediately. If it gets out then she will be tagged as an accomplice. After all she really wanted them to stay so she could look at the very good looking young man to her satisfaction.

"Where did you two go to?" Rose asked as soon as her sister stepped into the living room with Debby with solemn looks on their faces.

"Out," Anna and Debby chorused as they fell on sofas as though they had carefully rehearsed it all.

"Good for you," Rose said standing up with a frown. She really was not happy her sister left her out in the fun. "Why did you two leave me behind?"

"You were sleeping like a log of wood," Anna answered tiredly. "I tried to wake you up but you kept sleeping."

"Did something happen to the two of you?" Rose asked finding it weird that the two bright girls were actually very quiet today.

"We saw a male god," Debby answered truthfully as she stared at the ceiling dreamingly.

"Who?"

"No one. Shouldn't you be on your way home?"

"Oh, that is right. Next weekend I will sleep over," Debby warned her friend as she got up.

"Just leave for now," Anna answered irritated. She clearly told her fried to keep shut about what happened.

"We met Liam, Jace's brother. He is way better looking than in the pictures," Debby disregarded her friend's warning as she poured it all out.

"What is good about meeting him?" Rose asked more irritated than Anna was. That name she had tried to forget, she did not care about the rich guy she saw on the internet that she had a short crush on.

"I will get going. See you guys tomorrow," Debby said as she tried to escape the awkward moment caused by what she said. She waved at her best friend and friend before almost sprinting out of the room.

"There is nothing good about meeting him," Anna answered her sister staring ahead as though she was in a trance. The feeling she got from Liam's gaze made her shiver subconsciously. She had never feared anyone in her life but that powerful young man showed her she was not totally fearless.

She felt it was weird that she actually felt hostility and little drop of hatred from his gaze but when she weighed it all, she could not find a reason why he will hate her. She was meeting him for the first time in her life so there was no reason why he will hate her, right? After careful thought, she concluded she was only thinking too much.

"What made you sleep for so long?" Anna brushed off that thought after swearing to stay far away from Jace's brother and never cross parts with him.

"I was just sleeping and did not want to wake up," Rose answered walking out of the living room.

Anna followed her behind. "Your nightmares?" she asked worriedly.

"I did not have any," Rose replied her sister as they stepped into the elevator.

"Uh? How did you do it?" Anna asked since she still experienced nightmares where she was trying hard to see the face of her kidnapper.

"I don't know. I just slept and somehow did not wake up till twelve today," Rose answered naturally.

Anna's lower jaw dropped in a dramatic manner. "You are lying right?" Anna asked in disbelief.

"I have no reason to lie."

"Now, don't lie. Did you take sleeping pills?"

"No."

"Did you take any other drug?"
