Bewitched His Soul

"Ya tell me ,"Evelyn came out of her dreamland.

"A car is waiting for us, I will bring the luggage,"the assistant informed.

To the next available flight Evelyn and her assistant were going back to their country.

"Evelyn do you blame me ,"the assistant asked in a meek tone.

"For what ,"Evelyn frowned.

"For taking this contract .I was never aware of the danger .I am very sorry and from next time I will check the location twice before finalizing any contract .I was so shaken up when you were lost and I know it's my mistake for not looking after you ,"the assistant apologized in a sincere tone.

"Stop blaming yourself ,no one knows when accidents may occur .You are the best assistant one could ever ask and from next time let both of them be careful, "Evelyn consoled her.

"You don't know much I needed your forgiveness .I will work hard and get you the best projects ,"the assistant side hugged Evelyn.

"I know ,now let's forget about this horrible trip ,"Evelyn hugged her back.

As soon as Evelyn reached the home she slept the whole day as she was very tired because of jet lag and also three days in forest has drained her energy.

She had a  very beautiful dream ,it showed Daniel kissing her and when he stopped to catch his breath she shamelessly begged him for one more kiss .Daniel quickly obliged her request but Evelyn was impatient that she tore his shirt and ran her hands on his chest. Daniel was grunting because of her teasing and  pushed her to the nearby wall. Then everything was blur and Evelyn woke up suddenly.

She sat down and looked around to confirm that she was dreaming .This is the first time she was having an erotic dream and that too it involved her enemy Daniel . Didn't they say dreams are often our suppressed desires ,did  that kiss evoke a fire in her and  can it  only be cooled off by sleeping with him.

Daniel was definitely messing with her , he was so unaffected by whatever happened between them in the forest that he did not even have the courtesy to say goodbye .Evelyn did not want to admit but the truth was she was a bit disappointed as she could not see Daniel one more time before coming home.

"I will forgot Daniel ,forget Daniel,"Evelyn chatted as she covered her face with the blanket and went back to sleep.

Next day as soon as  Evelyn got up , her assistant had booked her an appointment to spa. Evelyn had to get a fully body treatment ,get hair and nails done .At the end of the day she was back to her former self. She felt so relaxed and calm as if all the tension left her body after a good massage .When she looked at the mirror she smiled as she  looked absolutely gorgeous and clicked few photos to upload  on instagram. There were so many messages from her fans asking why she was MIA for so long and Evelyn lied that she was busy at work .

Evelyn had taken few days leave and thought she will just stay in her room watching good movies and when she went to her closet to change into her nightwear she noticed a jacket among other dresses . She took the jacket from the hanger and realized it was Daniel's which he had given to her when she complained about sunburn.

When she brought the jacket to her nose she realized it smelled like fresh lemon as it was washed now unlike when she was wearing where it had Daniel's unique smell.  During the past three days she saw a different side of Daniel which she was unaware for two decades. 

When he gave the jacket she way touched by his gesture and now seeing the same jacket brought back so many memories. She felt Daniel surely cared about her but then when they reached the cottage he acted as if they are strangers.

One week later Evelyn had a brand promotion event at X hotel and after she gave a short speech about how much she loved the product there was a 15 minutes break so that she can freshen up .She was going to the washroom when she spotted Daniel in the corridor.

The event was happening on the first floor while Daniel had come to have a business lunch on second floor, Evelyn's heart was beating loudly as she started to walk towards him. Daniel was busy typing something on his phone and Evelyn was waiting when he will lift his head and acknowledge her.

Evelyn put a strand of her hair behind her ear and blushed a bit lowering her head . Finally Daniel lifted his head and frowned seeing Evelyn in front of him . She smiled at him but Daniel's  face showed no emotion .She waited hoping he will come forward or at least say a word but was disappointed when he stared at her blankly.

She did not admit defeat so easily and decided she will be the one to start a conversion.

"Hi Dani…,"Evelyn's words got struck in her throat.

A hot young woman opened the door and walked towards Daniel. She flirtatiously smiled and battled her eyelashes , she was wearing a tight top and short shirt .

Daniel raised his brow and as that woman started to blabber something he responded in a word or two. When the woman turned around and started walking Daniel followed her without sparing a glance towards Evelyn.

Evelyn clenched her fists and was very angry at how he pretended not to notice her ,looks like she was the only one who thought they are friends or may be something  more after spending three days in forest .But now she got to know the reality as she was the only one who was remembering the old good days and Daniel had surely moved on so she promised not a make a fool of herself anymore.

Evelyn stood in front of the mirror as she reapplied her makeup and tried to forget about the dreadful meeting with Daniel.. She practiced her prefect smile and once she was sure that no one can detect any changes in her she went to the event hall.
