Juliette Pov
"Where are you going?" he called after me sounding irritated when I stopped following him and walked the other direction where I had parked Tess's car.
"Eh? To my car!" I said and turned around walking towards the car.
"Juliette!" he called and soon I felt his hand on my shoulder.
"You are coming with me!" he told me as he turned me around and I looked at him uninterestingly.
"Why? Where are we going and stop touching me!" I removed his hand from my shoulder as I took a step backward.
"I'll do whatever I want!" he gritted his teeth and got hold of my arm tightly as he began to pull me towards his car's direction.
"Wait! But what about my car? It's not actually mine, I borrowed it from my friend Tess. I can't just abandon it here!" I said and tried to match his pace with my heels as he dragged me towards his car.
"I'll have my driver take it back to your house!" was all he said.
"Really? That would be great! By the way whe-" he turned around swiftly as he pulled me towards him.
"Keep your mouth shut!" he said in a low tone warning me to open my mouth and I put my finger on my lips nodding agreeing with him.
As if...
He huffed out air and turned around while I smirked at him but composed myself when he turned once again to look at me.
"Get in!" he said as his car beeped when he unlocked it using his remote keys.
"But where ar-" he pulled the door open and shoved me inside.
"Hey! You don't need to be so mean!" I yelled but he slammed the door on my face and walked to the other side. I watched as he stood there for some minutes before opening the car door and entering.
"Put your seat belts on!" he said more like commanded whilst he put on his seatbelt and ignited the engine. I did as he said not because I followed his order but for my own safety or else I knew I would fly out of the damn car if he loses his mind in the middle of the ride.
"So? Where are we going?" I asked as I played with the strap of my belt.
He stayed quiet not even glancing my way. I looked at him while he drove using his one hand and with the other, he rubbed his temple. He looked agitated and restless all of a sudden.
"What did you eat today?" I heard him and I hummed in response.
"I asked," he said and then snapped at me "What did you eat today?" which made me jerked up in my seat.
"Woah!" I laughed and then shook my head no.
"Nothing!" I replied and he looked back at the road.
"Then what did you drink?" he asked and I shrugged my shoulders "water I guess," I replied.
"Why are you asking?" I asked and he looked at me and then back at the road and honked multiple times even though there was no one in his way.
"You are weird sometimes," I muttered to myself.
"Not as you!" he replied.
Dog ears...
As I watched the turn he took I recalled the direction Willi had told me previously to his penthouse.
So we are going to his penthouse...
"I see!" I mumbled.
As the car took a halt, I looked out of the window to find us under the gigantic building called 'Grand Virid Premium'.
"You live here?" I asked amazed by the majestic grandeur of the building but when no one replied I turned to look at him only to find his seat empty.
"Zachary?" I said and the door on my side opened "Come out!" he offered me his hand which I ignored as I removed my seat belts and jumped out of the car completely ignoring him., I heard him taking sharp intakes though.
"Oh wow!" I said impressed by the surrounding as I walked into his penthouse. I walked up to the glass window where the view of the city was nostalgic. I wondered how it would look in the night and even though we were in great heights the hustle and bustle of the city still reached our ears if paid close attention to it. Everything inside was magnificent and extraordinarily beautiful. The interior was of top-class and everything was designed to trifles. But contrasting to his personality the interior was warm and loving. Starting from the floor to the roof, and even the furniture was chosen white.
"Now tell me!" I heard his voice from behind me and I turned around raising my eyebrows at him.
"You know what Zachary let's play a game, shall we?" I asked as I took a seat on the couch.
"Answer my questions Juliette, don't try to change the subject!" he said and stood before me. His soul penetrating eyes gazing down at me as if trying to read me.
"What about my game?" I questioned and once again he chose to avoid my question.
"Why were you there today and in- in this dress? I thought you had told me beforehand that you don't wear this type of dresses so why?" he questioned and that brought a smile on my face. A sly smile.
"You are surely talking a lot today Zachar-"
"Juliette!" he slammed his hand on the headrest of the couch "Answer the damn question," he asked in a deep low voice.
His eyes glaring at me but instead of being frightened like I used to be I smirked and crossed my arms over my chest. His eyes followed my action and ended up on my chest but then he shot up from his position and turned around shoving his hands into pant pockets.
"Answer my question,"
"Not until you play the game with me," I said which made him turn around to face me.
"Juliett-"
"Let's have something interesting in this. If you win I'll answer your questions," I said as I stood up from my place and walked towards the table where I poured a glass of water for myself and gulped it down.
"And if I win," I turned around with a sly smile on my face "You will have to give me something," folding my hands on my back I walked up to him.
"What do you want?′ he asked as he looked nervous all of a sudden.
"You will see that!" I answered and walked around him whilst he stood in the same place.
"What type of game is it?" he asked and I smiled inwardly before answering.
"Q and A"
"Huh?"
"Simple Question and Answers..."
"Questions about what?" he questioned when I stood behind him.
"Oh, you know the general stuff. General knowledge," I said and walked closer to him when he removed his hand from his pants pockets.
"What?" I heard him mumble. He must be really confused right now and I knew it because it was already my intention from the beginning to make him, even more, confuse than he already is.
"By the way, I forgot to tell you about the rules," I said more like whispered into his ears from behind.
"Rules?"
"Number One, Only I am the one who is going to ask you questions and you will the one who will be answering,"
"Wha-"
"Let me finish!"
"So? Yeah Number two, you can't interfere me,"
"Number three, you can't move from your place"
"Number four, you can't answer anything else than the questions that is asked to you," I chuckled a little before continuing "let me check your IQ level today,"
"And finally number five, you can't close your eyes," I finished as I stood before him and made an eye contact.
"What are these things?" he questioned and I shrugged "My game, my rules"
"Whatever! Just ask your questions and finish this all," he said and turned around but then stopped when I opened my mouth "The interesting part of this game is the fewer clothes I have on me the fewer is your winning chances," I said and like a bolt of electricity he turned around with widened eyes.
"Wh- What did you just say?" he asked even though he heard me.
"You heard it. The game is simple. I will ask you questions and you will answer, the wrong answer will make me strip something from my body but at the same time, a right answer will make me put the thing back on me. So, in simple terms the lesser the clothes I will have on me... You lose," I smirked when he gave me a disbelief look.
"What type of game is this?" he breathed out looking out of breath all of sudden.
"The usual, haven't you played this type of game before?" I questioned and he narrowed his eyes at me "Oh you have played this type of game beforehand?" he cross-questioned me.
"Of course!" I shrugged my shoulders at him.
"With whom? with that Emm-"
