Capítulo 14: The Mask

"Who's in love with Crescent?" A voice filled with thorough indignation suddenly joined in. Immediately, Davina Chu walked toward Crescent's desk without missing to sway her hips from side to side. "The prince? You can't be serious?"

Crescent rolled an eye immediately. "And why can't he?"

Crescent's answer appalled Davina Chu. Her lips drew an instant 'ah' but she couldn't voice anything out from that in a moment.

"The prince will not even lay an eye on you Miss Garza, I can assure you that," Davina finally was able to draw a rebuttal to it.

"And how can you tell? You're not the one being visited by the Montarini Corporate," Crescent smiled with mockery at that and Davina's ears immediately went red with anger.

"Whatever was their business with you! I'm sure it had nothing to do with the prince's affection!" The woman screamed all over, drawing everyone's attention. They already expected this attitude from Davina and one could only shake with the fact that she might have snatched a good contract from Crescent but can never get even with her. Having the Montarini Corporate at her side made their difference sparingly obvious. "Look at yourself, that face of yours couldn't even attract a single male in here,"

"But all the males in here are nothing like the prince," Apple replied as she distanced herself from Davina Chu, afraid that she would hit her in with her rage. It was very entertaining to watch the woman break lose especially in front of everyone she she giggled inside.

"True. I learned that people like the prince would rather seek for substance rather than physical appearance," Georgi agreed with Apple with the same intention of making Davina feel worse. "Of course, brilliant people like the prince knows that physical appearance can be fixed while brains can never be—"

"Are you saying I'm dumb?" Davina Chu's attention was on Georgi now.

"Oh I didn't even know Madam that you are one of the options. I was only describing Miss Garza since we all know she dressed so lousily but her brains are brilliant. I was saying perhaps the prince was in awe of her brains and character.." Georgi tried to pronounce the word slower in his last sentence trying to make a point with Davina Chu. "Don't worry madam, I'm sure someone if the prince will confess to Miss Garza, I'll let you know,"

"That will never happen," Davina Chu raged more, making bothe Georgi and Apple step back giggling.

"You can never know Davina! You can never know!" Crescent replied with a giggle too immediately pulled a headset from her bag then stuffed it into her ears. Ah! She's done with all the trouble and unnecessities for the day, she has to start going and do something productive!

"You!" Davina can only ball her fist. Knowing that her rival will spare her no more attention, she withdrew fuming with rage that Georgi and Apple could only laugh at it. Soon, things got back to normal in Crescent's and the girl had already forgotten what happened during the day.

***

When Crescent got off from work it was already dark. She did a few hours overtime and was hoping that perhaps her extra hours of work will be rewarded at the next pay day. As soon as she stepped out of the building, she hailed a cab and rode home. On the way, Georgi called her and asked if both Apple and him could spend the night at her apartment. It was their last day of work for that day and tomorrow is their rest day so they thought to have some drinks and little fun at her house. Crescent did not hesitate and asked the two to buy the drinks on their way to her house as she had no more time for it which they agreed.

Soon, Crescent arrived in her apartment and she went to the shower immediately. In the middle of her taking a good bath and pulling a toothbrush to tend her teeth, her doorbell rang and she immediately yelled from the shower unintelligently "Georgi, zhshshshs you leave your keys again? I'm in the sxhshsha damn you!"

Biting the toothbrush, Crescent took a towel, wrapped herself with it and went to open the door. As she was in a hurry, she did not anymore inspect who it was and just opened it expecting Georgi and Apple. However when she opened it, her eyes went so big at the sight of Juan Long's towering height.

"Good evening Miss Garza,"

Crescent was stunned and the only thing she did while blinking at the man was brushing her teeth unconsciously.

"The hell xashshah…how did you find my —ah shit! I mean…good xhshshs Mr. Long, whassstsshsh your busizhzhaha," Crescent was tempted to swallow the bubbles in her mouth but the toothpaste was too harsh for her throat. While she was confused as to what to do with the man standing at her door looking down at her almost naked body, she heard another voice from Juan's Long behind.

"What's wrong?" The voice was so manly seductive Crescent could imagine only a very beautiful male being can own it. The man behind Juan Long however showed up from his back and her eyes frustratedly squinted when she saw him wearing a mask.

Damn, she was looking forward to seeing his face but was only welcomed by a mask. How could she tell if his voice was as great as his looks?

What's with the mask? Does her house look like a carnival or something? Or Perhaps did they came from a masquerade ball before coming to see her?

Crescent was about to ask but realization immediately hit her!

Wait.

The mask.

Didn't they say the Diamond Prince used to wear a mask before?

"Shit!" Her voice went clear when realized who it was. Very surprised, she jerked and let off her toothbrush and the toothpaste that was bubbling in her throat got swallowed in an instant.

Her throat stung immediately.


Capítulo 15: Mintish Fire

The view of the man in mask wanted Crescent to act prim and proper but the stung of mintish fire in her throat needed immediate attention; she ended up coughing in front of him and wanting to vomit. Helpless, she ran for the sink and tried to help herself but none of her foolish attempts worked.

Juan Long who saw how terrible the situation went only closed his eyes in embarrassment. Not for himself but for the girl. Also, he doesn't know what to tell the prince right then and was turned between asking the senyorito to leave to give the girl some privacy or linger more. However, he knew the man was capable of deciding on it.

"Senyorito, perhaps—" Juan Long tried to suggest his first thought of leaving but he was cut off when he saw Huzey move. With the sophisticated aura grace only he could wear without much effort, the Montarini prince opened the fridge he saw sitting in the corner and took cold water from inside. He then poured a glass even without being told and dragged it in front of the girl who was trying to redeem herself.

"Uhm..thank you," Crescent was so lost that instead of taking the cup, she immediately drank it while the man in mask was still holding it. Juan Long dropped jaws at the scene! How shameless was this woman!

"Cough.cough.cough." Juan Long tried to get Crescent's attention but then the girl cut him off.

"More please," She asked desperately and Huzey was left with nothing but to pour her another glass and have her drink the same.

The Montarini prince was feeding Crescent the water, Georgi and Apple who arrived at the entrance of Crescent's apartment. Outside, they saw two luxurious cars being parked but didn't think it had something to do with Crescent. They also saw men guarding the premises but there were several apartments in the building so it didn't occur to them that anything of it had something to do with their boss.

However, when they were already at Crescent's door. They were very surprised to see Juan Long standing just at the entrance. As both their eyes went big, the two ran to see what was happening only to find Crescent being fed with water by a man wearing a white mysterious mask.

Thrilled, Georgi couldn't help but scream upon the sweet scene he saw. "Ayyieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Crescent didn't take the sudden scream right and she immediately jolted in fear and ran for an embrace with the nearest person she could grab. Of course, it was the prince who shamelessly embraced it.

"Wahhhhhh!" Crescent closed her eyes in panic and pressed her almost naked body to the man beside her. She even buried her head in his chest, holding much for her dear life as if she was about to die.

Juan Long almost died out of shame!

Apple and Georgie 's couldn't take in the sight and so they just stood there for a few minutes watching their boss shamelessly hugging a stranger with nothing but a towel wrapped around her body.

When the tension subsided and Crescent stopped screaming she strangely found herself very hot and breathless. The first thing that hit her was that she was hugging a man whose muscles seemed to have been perfectly carved in the right places. His hard chest was even so comforting and his smell—Ah heaven!

However, after a second of shamelessly lavishing herself with the company of a man, she realized that it was rather so weird for her to have been hugging a man and she slowly raised her head to confirm whether it was really a man or it was just Georgi pretending to be man. However, he had hugged Georgi several times already and as far as she could remember his body wasn't that hard and well sculpted.

When her eyes finally met the eyes of the man she just shamelessly hugged, his exquisite pair of mysterious blue eyes welcomed her. For a moment, she got drowned into its mystery as if she had caught something she was so familiar but couldn't fathom how. She had seen those eyes before, she couldn't just remember when.

Surprisingly, he opened up something inside her heart and it beat faster than it ever could. Ah! What is this feeling! She was shaking, breathless and confused just so suddenly.

The man in mask dug his eyes to hers too as if something hit him that for a moment, they stared into each other.

"Ahm….Miss Garza," Juan Long broke the lingering silence and only then did Crescent realize her shameless venture with the stranger she just met.

Immediately she retreated and covered her front as her cleavage went too exposed to everyone.

"Sir, why did you scream like that? You scared me," Crescent transferred the blame to Juan Long immediately trying to redeem herself although she knew she had done too much tonight.

"It wasn't him," Georgi admitted badly. She thought Crescent hadn't seen him because she was nearsighted and that time, she had no glasses on. Thinking her clear visions only reached Juan Long, he confessed his presence. "It's me boss…I'm sorry, I was just surprised we had a company,"

"I'm surprised too," She relayed. "Sir, we just met earlier in the office and I already told you I can't accept your offer,"

"I'm sorry if we came unannounced," The man in white mask suddenly said. His voice wasn't too deep but was so manly in a way that could easily steal not your attention but your heart. It was an auditory caramel, tasteful and somewhat addicting.

"And you are?" Georgi and Apple weren't that brilliant to guess who he was. In fact they were slightly intrigued why he wore a mask in the middle of the night. However, since he wore a half white mask, some features of his face were exposed and they could right away he was a very gorgeous man. His long hair tied neatly on his back only added to how perfect of an adonis he looked.

"Well everyone…allow me to introduce to you my boss.." Juan Long took the initiative.

"Your boss?" Apple surely did not miss that. To her horror she screamed right through Georgi's face. "Omayghad Georgi, he is the Diamond Prince!"
