"Ugh...." Queen groaned as she felt her head throbbing with pain.
'What the hell happened?!' She thought as she covered her eyes to protect herself from the sun light streaming in the room.
Queen tried her best to think about what happened. But she couldn't. She closed her eyes before opening them up.
"I should call Mary..." She mumbled, prepared to call the maid inside. But before she could do so, she suddenly felt that something was wrong with the scenario.
"What...." Queen moved her arms and felt something warm and hard beneath her head. It wasn't hard exactly...it was hard yet...not. It felt like somebody's arm?!
Queen turned to the side to be greeted by somebody's chest. Queen's eyes widened in shock as she swallowed before moving her gaze upwards to look at the owner of the arm she was sleeping on.
To be greeted with Quince's silver grey eyes.
Queen was shocked and was speechless at his presence. Wasn't this her room? How the hell was this smelly cat here?!
"Qui...Qui...ho...wha...?!" Queen simply couldn't complete her sentence.
"Are you awake now? Little girl?" He asked with a smile on his face. It wasn't his happy smile as his dimples weren't present at all. It was a cunning and sinister smile.
"What are you doing in my room?!" Queen finally found her voice before asking him the question.
"Your room? So you don't remember anything at all?" Quince asked as the vein on his forehead throbbed dangerously.
"Rememb...?" Queen began saying but before she could complete her sentence, Quince suddenly moved and slumped his body on top of her, with little distance between them.
She could feel his weight pressing on her as his arms caged her in between his arms.
"You don't remember anything at all? Miss Wan Lin?" Quince emphasized the name of her disguise as he asked her.
That was when it hit Queen! Yesterday they were here for the meeting with Mister Antonio! Then there was the dinner!
Then she came up to send Quince...but... what happened afterwards?
Seeing her looking lost, Quince truly wanted to lock her up and punish her.
He could barely sleep last night as she kept clinging on to him. He was a man too! Being hugged by the woman he like was hard to endure!
Quince realized that he liked her now but that doesn't mean he was going to let her get away with it.
"If you don't remember then I will tell you! You were drunk and do you know what you did? How much trouble you gave me?" Quince whispered dangerously as he thought about everything that happened.
She kicked him last night! Not to mention all the trouble that she created!
"Eh..he...." Queen laughed sheepishly at what he said. She knew she must have done something for him to be this mad.
"You..." Seeing That look on her face, Quince sighed helplessly.
He then used both his hands to pinch her cheeks and squish them together.
"Tell me. Why are you in the company, disguised as my secretary?" He asked as he narrowed his eyes.
"Thwat becorsee dhdur slfjdj..." Queen tried to replied but she couldn't since her cheeks were squished together.
"What? Talk properly" Quince said but he still didn't let go of her cheeks.
Queen then looked at him with a wronged expression in her eyes, melting Quince's heart once again.
He finally took pity on her and let her go.
Queen started sucking in oxygen as if she was deprived of it.
Queen wanted to scold Quince but seeing his face looking so mad in front of her, she couldn't do so.
"Don't you need a secretary? So I decided to apply." Queen said.
"Speak! The! Truth!" Quince enunciated each word as he glared at her.
"Alright! I just thought it would be fun." Queen raised her hands up in defeat as she said that.
"That's all?" Quince asked as he continued looking at her.
"I also thought it would be interesting to...play around?" Queen tilted her head to the side and answered him.
"Play around? How?" Quince gazed at her intensely, waiting for her answer. His gaze was so intense Queen was afraid he would spit laser beams from them.
"Welllll...I heard about the spy in your company and thought I could help you?" She finally revealed her real motive.
"And have fun playing tricks on the spy while you're at it?" Quince asked right to the point.
'Jesus, good I didn't make a bet about this, I would lose all my money.' Queen thought silently. Outwardly though, she revealed an embarrassed smile, admitting to his words.
"Mother must have told you." Quince said and looked down at her. At that moment he finally realized that he was too near to her.
Queen noticed him staring at her and wondered what else he had to say. She was shocked when he suddenly moved closer and kissed her cheek.
Before she could say anything, he sprung off her and said, "Get ready then, we have a spy to catch."
Saying that he turned and walked inside the bathroom, the back of his ears turning completely red.
Queen was lost in a daze and so she didn't notice his red ears or she would have teased him about it.
Suddenly, her cheeks started turning red when she realized what he did.
'Did he just...steal a kiss from me?!'
