The time flew quickly with the girls who spent the entire day at Bel’s apartment.
Katie helped her in organizing a section which includes getting her hair done, doing manicure; though she was very skilled at it, still it was nice.
Katie was more like a chief organizer in tidying up Bel’s look and getting her ready for the event.
All through the process, the conversation was none ending.
Katie kept talking and talking; her words were meant to keep her friend mood elated while mentally observing her expression.
Since she had never seen her friend put up this much to please a man!
She had always been beautiful, her beauty could be explained using lavender.
Pure, silent; housing serenity and grace.
She had always been graceful and calm, observing everything happening around her yet feeling detached from it all.
Seeing her Katie was pleased.
So pleased that her lavender finally reacted, it had finally shaken and she was going to help her understand the concept of men!
….
Bel sat before a mirror with eyes closed from having Katie who was ministering with a brush and makeup accessories on her.
Though she asked her not to do much makeup on her, after all it was nothing but an auction and she was only just accompanying him.
Or maybe Katie wanted to make her the woman of night.
” Katie how much longer would it be?
” Bel groans.
Feeling the brush stroking her face much more often than what she had anticipated.
” Just a little more my gorgeous…now place your lips together and wow-la…” Katie’s words were so enticing that Bel sat through two entire hours of applying makeup on her.
” Now come take a look at my beautiful masterpiece!
” Katie said, holding the brush stick up while giving room to Bel; so she could see the mirror.
Opening her eyes, she was astounded to see her reflection.
” What did I tell you my gorgeous…” Katie praised her looks.
” Katie you…I don’t know isn’t it too much?
I mean it’s just an auction…” Bel felt wistful.
” What!?
You are priceless… beautiful and priceless.
Let him see that and know how much of a Jabe you are!
” Katie placed her hands on her shoulder and drew her face close to her.
” And besides… you’re very beautiful Bel!
” She confessed.
” Alright here is your dress.
Go get ready and the time is already approaching eight… else your ride would find you not ready!
Bel looked at her reflection one last time in the mirror.
She was indeed beautiful, Katie two hours of makeup did pay off nicely from seeing the results before her eyes.
She looked no less from those top female celebrities in the country if not surpassing them.
And her looks were pure, clearly showing how graceful and unique she was.
Bel stood up from her seat and walked towards a dress Katie had chosen for her.
It was a navy blue bodycon dress with an opening from the mid thigh reaching the shin.
The dress had specks of glittery silver work all over it, causing the dress to sparkle when placed under the spotlight.
The dress hugged her figure, making her look more alluring and seductive.
She stepped out from her room holding a black purse in her hand and a silver strap heel, seeing the time was almost up.
” Oh my… heaven’s!
You are breathtaking!
” Katie screamed, walking her towards the door.
” Katie I don’t know if this all is too much!?
” Bel said still feeling unsure.
” That’s nonsense!
This is perfect…let him feast his eyes on you tonight!
And remember…try being more seductive tonight…
I don’t want to you to miss out on the fun!
Show him the version of you that’s hot…very hot!
” Katie advises midway towards the door.
” Hunk!
Hunk!
”
A car drove outside Bel’s apartment and parked.
Hearing the noise, Katie hugged her and said.
” Alright go…go now and make me proud!
” Holding the doors for Bel who stepped outside.
She walked straight towards the black spotless Bentley parked before her house.
” Good evening Miss…
Mr Rymer asked me to come get you!
” A gentleman said opening the door for her to get access into the car.
” Oh… thank you!
” She responded meekly while stepping into the car and taking a seat.
The man closed the door and stepped into the car and drove the car away.
All through the ride, Bel was quiet.
Her gaze down-casted like she was doing a mental resolve.
She didn’t care how expensive her ride was or how fast the ride took in arriving at her destination, all she did was sit there and be beautiful.
” Miss your ride…we have arrived at your destination!
” The man said, drawing her from her dazed state.
” Ohh!
Is Mr Rymer here?
” She asked him still seated.
” Well…he promised to come get you from here.
” He said assuring her in a warm tone.
” Alright!
Thank you again.” She said stepping out of the car.
The car was parked in a secluded garage close to a huge Night house.
The place was called such by name, a huge structure with classy and expensive construction.
Looking around the place she stood, she saw a figure standing at a distance from her.
For a strange reason, Bel doesn’t need anyone to tell her who he was and she walked towards him.
” Good evening Mr Rymer.
” She said approaching him.
” Call me Brandon!
” He said coldly, relaxing against the staircase leisurely.
So perfect like a sovereign king.
He stood at the small stairs leading into the Night house, placing both hands in his pocket and observing her.
Bel couldn’t see his expression clearly from the distance he stood, though she knew he was observing her which made her keep a gleeful look across her face.
” I hope I’m rightly dressed!?
” Bel asked him, taking hunch steps towards him.
He chuckled amusingly, his eyes still lingering on her dress.
” You pass.!
” He said shortly.
Pulling his hands from his pocket and looking at the door before them.
Bel arrived beside him and placed her hand on his, over the staircase standing close to him.
He looked at his watch and remarked.
” Alright… let’s go in!
”
Gripping at Bel’s hand, he surveyed her one last time at a close range; causing a quick flush to run down her face.
He smirked seeing that while tugging at her hand and they both made it for the door into the Night house.
