Chapter 5 " What Attracts Me Is His Personality

• In Boston, at the Ramsey mansion, the party continues in full swing.
• "I knew tonight would be amazing, you just needed to relax and have fun. Come with me," Bryan holds Sophia's hand and leads her to a more private location. "So, what do you think about enjoying ourselves a little more? I bet I can make you feel even more satisfied and happy than my little brother." Sophia had already had more to drink than she should have. Her inhibitions had disappeared.
• "So, Alex is really good at what he does, I'm completely satisfied in that aspect, do you believe you can satisfy me even more? I doubt it."
• "Why don't you try, then? That way you'll see what I'm capable of and that all this time you've been with the wrong brother."
• Sophia remains silent, gets up from the couch, and walks up to Bryan, standing in front of him for several minutes, until finally deciding to kiss him. The kiss is full of desire, as if she longed for a touch of tenderness. Bryan carries her upstairs to his bedroom. He puts her on the bed and they kiss for several minutes. He takes off his shirt and looks at her. Bryan then lifts her dress, kneels down, and pleases her with oral sex. Sophia moans in response, as if she had been longing for it. He continues until she can't take it anymore, then he lifts her up, takes off her dress, and puts her on all fours. They continue for several minutes, him penetrating her and making her moan with pleasure, which excites him even more. He increases the pace until he can't take it anymore and collapses on top of her.
• "That was incredible," he says, looking into her eyes. "Did I exceed your expectations?"
• Sophia laughs and lies down on his shoulder. A few minutes later, she falls asleep. Bryan takes a picture of the two of them together and takes some nude photos of Sophia while she sleeps peacefully. When it's past eleven in the morning, Sophia wakes up, naked, with flashes of the previous night in her mind. Her phone has several missed calls from Mr. Henrique during the night and in the morning, as well as some calls from Alex.
• "Damn it, Sophia, what have you done?" She questions herself, gets dressed, and calls a taxi to go home. On the way, she calls Alex.
• "What happened to you?" Alex asks when he answers.
• "Good morning to you too. I was upset with you and didn't want to answer, even if Mr. Henrique was watching me."
• "Sophia, are you going to keep acting like a child? I care about you, I just wanted to make sure you were safe."
• "I'm fine, Alex. I'm at home resting. Are you in Seattle? Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"
• "I tried to tell you when I called, but you just wanted to fight. I'll be back in a few days and we can talk. Take care." Alex hangs up before she can respond.
• At the Relic Halgrave company, the meeting room is ready for the meeting with the Shaws at one o'clock in the afternoon. The members of the Halgrave and O'Donnel families discuss the details of the meeting. Peter leaves the room to take a call.
• "Why are you calling me?"
• "I thought we could go out for coffee after the meeting. We used to get along. Why can't we continue like that? Just because you're busy with my cousin, we can't be friends?"
• "The meeting ends at five in the afternoon. Let's meet at our usual place. See you later, Samantha."
• "No, I'll wait for you at your apartment. I still have a key. I'll make coffee for us, like in the old times."
• "Alright, I'll see you there." He hangs up and receives a message from Rebecca.
• "Sorry about yesterday. Can we talk later?"
• He reads and ignores it, still upset with her. Rebecca waits for a response, sitting in a cafe near her father's office. She sees her friend Andre enter and puts her phone aside.
• " The little princess of the Halgrave family. I hope your witch cousins don't hear me. " He laughs as he goes to hug his friend.
• Shortly after, Melissa enters the cafe and joins the friends. Rebecca had already told her about her night with Peter. The last one to join them is Susan, who is also aware of everything.
• " Oh, oh, oh, friend, I don't even know what to say. What's up with your virginity? Auntie brainwashed you, it must be. Sex is the most normal thing in the world.
• " It's okay, it's okay, don't judge me. I kind of froze, I was terrible. Now he doesn't even talk to me.
• " Friend, he was giving you pleasure and you didn't cooperate. What did you expect? He's frustrated, you need to redeem yourself.
• " That's right, Becca. Mel is right. Put on some sexy lingerie, an amazing dress, and go to him tonight. We men love that kind of thing. He'll forgive you in no time.
• " It's fine. I'll do that and drink a few shots of the strongest drink so I don't lose courage. " She says, feeling her cheeks burn with embarrassment.
• " So that's it, friend. Enjoy and relax. And don't forget to tell Peter that I want to meet the "intimidating" Mr. Shaw from the Shaw group. It serves you right for telling me he's in town.
• " Wow, Mel, you're obsessed with these guys. Leave Becca alone. Friend, only do it if you feel like it. If Peter can't wait, you'll know he's not who he seems.
• " It's all right, Su. I think I want to do it.
• " If you only think so, it's not a good sign. You must be sure, friend. Or do like Mel, find a stranger and spend the whole night having sex. " Susan jokes, making everyone laugh.
• " And you, Mel? Forget about that guy. He's dating the beautiful Sophia Spencer. That woman is stunning. I would love to explore her body.
• " Andre, you're an idiot. I've seen pictures of her. She's nothing special. We're just as sexy as her. I think I have a chance with young Shaw.
• " Excuse me, ladies. I'm not attracted to you. And look at this goddess here. " He shows a photo of Sophia at a Ramsey family event.
• " She's really beautiful. And you, you idiot, you're not attracted to us because we're your friends. So, Mel, what's so special about this guy? " Rebecca asks.
• " First, he must be handsome. All the women who know him say he's amazing. And you're kidding, haven't you seen pictures of him? Is this guy out of this world?
• " Friend, he's very private. The few pictures of him are quickly removed from the media, and the ones that remain don't give a good idea. But what attracts me is his personality. They say he has an intimidating look and can knock anyone down in his path, mercilessly. I would love to get spanked by him for a night.
• " You have issues, Mel. But anyway, friend, we're here to support your craziness. Now, let's go shopping so I can prepare for the night.
• " No way. I'm skipping this time. I love you three, but I'll pass.
• Around one o'clock in the afternoon, at the Relic Halgrave office, the two families are in the conference room when the Shaws arrive at the reception. Alex receives a call and goes out to answer it, while his grandfather and Ryan ask for their arrival to be announced.
• " Hello, gentlemen. I am Robert Halgrave. It's a pleasure to meet you. " He greets Nicolas and Ryan.
• " Pleasure, Mr. Robert. This is Ryan Foster, the lawyer of the Shaw group.
• " Grandpa, I need to go. An emergency has come up and I have to handle it. Could you take care of things here with Ryan? " Alex says as he returns to the reception.
• " Has something serious happened?
• " It's nothing serious, just a crisis in one of the companies in New York. I'll go back to the hotel to deal with it from there. Ryan, please, when you're done here, go straight to the hotel. We need to talk.
• " It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Alex Shaw. We were looking forward to meeting the talented young man from the Shaw family. " says Robert, extending his hand. Alex just nods and leaves the reception heading towards the hotel.
• " Alex is always like that, even when he was young. Take it as a hint for our collaboration.
• Robert accompanies Nicolas and Ryan to the meeting room. Everyone stands up to greet them. In the room, Peter and his father Magno, Antonio, and the company's lawyer, Lucas, are present.
• " Mr. Shaw, isn't your grandson going to participate? " Peter asks.
• " He had other matters to attend to. Ryan and I will conduct the meeting and discuss with him later. He is a very busy young man.
• Peter shows frustration as he wanted to show the young Shaw his own talent. The meeting starts with Antonio, and they discuss the details of the proposals until five in the afternoon.
