Dear Paris,
I am completely obsessed with you.

It's true, I am here only for 5 hours but I am in love with it. Personally the clothes and bags Mr. Henri presented me have been also a part of my joy but I am so astonished with Paris.

We came here in his private plane which made us got here pretty sooner than I expected and with the rush of seeing Paris I didn't even Jet-Lag.... Maybe because I slept on the plane, however- Blaze had the whole day planned, we went out to fancy restaurants and small cute cafes, we walked along the Eiffel Tower and we ate... probably my favorite part. We ate a lot of good food, very very good.

We are walking somewhere not really having a plan or agenda, we were just freely walking around and admiring the people, the animals, the nature while giving a stroll with no intended destination.

"Do you want an ice cream?" he asked has I watched the small ice cream cart

"That's so cute" I smiled while he guided me to the ice cream seller

"Chocolate ?" he asked me, I nodded happily watching the dozens of flavors on the small cart

"Bonjour, que puis-je obtenir pour ce doux couple?" the man asked happily ( Hello, what can I get for the sweet couple?)

"Bonjour, deux glaces, s'il vous plaît!" Blaze required ( Hello, two ice creams, please) he was cuter when he spoke in French.

"Très bien! Quelle saveur désirera mademoiselle ?" (Very Well! Which flavour do you wish Mademoiselle?) The man asked with a smile with his mustache danced from side to side making me chuckle

"chocolat, s'il vous plaît" I said making the man do a strange noise
(chocolate, please)

"Ah Ah! parle français, oui?"
( you speak French, yes?)

" un petit peu" I said
(a little bit)

"tu parles très bien"
(you speak very well)

"merci"
(thank you)

"Et que voudra Monsieur?"
(and what will you want Monsieur?)

"Saveur Menthe"
(Mint Flavor)

"Très bien"
(Very well)

"menthe et chocolat pour le jeune couple" (Mint and chocolate for the young couple) he said as he gave me the ice creams while Blaze took the money to pay. The man thanked us with a smile, what a happy man.

While Blaze was placing his wallet on his pants and taking some napkins I looked at our ice creams they really looked good, actually the minty one looked pretty tasty... did I make a bad choice? I should've asked for the mint one... since he was taking pretty long I thought about tasting his ice cream, I mean he wouldn't notice it right?

"Hm- Its praaty good" I said with my mouth full of the minty cold ice cream

"What are you doing?" he questioned, I sensed his body come closer to mine, I tried to swallow quickly all the ice cream in my mouth but it was so cold that I simply couldn't.

He chuckled once he realized what've done "is it good?" he asked making me nod in reply

"Do you want to trade?" he suggested but I once I looked at the ice creams again I suddenly felt the urge of some chocolate

"No" I said

"Should I share it with you then?" he asked making a smile surge in my face
"I will share it only if you share yours"

"Deal!" I said extending my hand, he grabbed my hand so we could shake them and seal the deal.

We walked through a park while he fought against the sunlight so our ice creams wouldn't melt. We sat down in wooden bench watching the Sena River.

At that moment, life felt like it stopped everything was so right that I simply didn't want to live. Actually thinking about it everywhere I went with him was now a good part of my day and whenever I was away I just kept thinking when we would be together. Since that day everything changed, we knew each other so well and now that shows once we got comfortable around each other is like we've known each other for this years, but it was only one year.

But in this one year, more than one year, I have met him in different ways and what I think that makes us what we are now is the fact that we know each other flaws because before we were like this, all lovey-dovey, we fought, we knew each other scars and defects and I guess that's what made us this comfortable with each other.

And honestly I didn't want to get away from this.

But-

What if one day that happens? What if one day I don't have him, I don't have us... what will happen to me?

"Hey-" his soft voice made my thoughts dissapear "You were thinking..." he said analyzing my face "We should go..."

I frowned at his conversation. Go? Where? We have no plans... and we are fine, aren't we?

"Where?" I took rhe courage to ask

"Louvre" he pointed far ahead "I know you like museums" he grabbed my hand pulling me up. I couldn't fight his proposal so I smiled and went along with him.

To say I loved, it is an understatement. The Louvre was beyond my expectations, I loved everything, the paintings, the rooms, the walls even the benches and the company. It was like time stopped.

But the romantic getaways had to eventually come to an end since we had work to do, in this case an event to attend.

A ball...

This might sound crazy but it's true, we are about to enter a real ball, similar to those back in the day I didn't know people still did this. Apparently they do this regularly in some country, some balls even have dress codes to be appropriate to represent a certain century, like the 1800's. Sounds a bit crazy and bit of a fairy tale right?

Well my dress code wasn't that rigorous, there was a few rules included the dress had to be a ball gown, but no such things as waves, oddly makeup, our tight corsets.

I was dressing a simple blue dress but with this big gown that I am not used to at all, while Bkaze was simply handsome and comfortable, his pale skin made that dark blue navy tuxedo suit him perfectly and the contrast of the black shirt and tie under it made it even better, I was contempt with my choice over our clothes... well he may have helped a bit but nothing much.

My hand was now wrapped around his arm while we were entering the big salons full of people, manly dresses, big fat dresses that were everywhere.

"So who are we meeting in a place like this?" I took the freedom to ask as I watched the couple dancing to the sound of violins, it looked like I had just traveled back in time.

"Important people that I wish to make business with" I hummed at his vague answer "Remeber the Angariation fund?" he questioned, making my mind travel to that day, to that little princess who claims she was lesbian and had no feelings for Blaze, pfft as if, I could see it from miles away.

"How could I forget" I mentioned,

"Well that day, got me access to this ball and that is very good... there are some significant people that are important here in Europe and they happened to be at this ball here, today"

"Who is your main interest then?"
I asked curiously.

"I have two...the first one is the Norwegian real estate tycoon Igar Tollefson – owner of 100,000 apartments across Europe–who added $2.2 billion to his estimated net worth over the last 12 months. "

"sounds rich"

"And Stéphan Bonavi, CEO of Investus real estate group, the Swiss with a net worth of 1.1 billion"

"Two investors of real state?"

"I wanna discuss the best offer, maybe make a little competition" he smirked as he looked over at the salon

"Do you think they see you as someone that important?"

"After the fundraising and the connections I have with royals it will be hard to deny. They seek power and I have just become pretty close to it"

"So you're basically irresistable" I concluded, his  amazed me more each day specially in his calculus moves in his work life.

"Pretty much" he laughed " Just like you tonight" I felt his eyes scanning me over, I looked at him and I saw them shining with lust and something else I didn't not know what it was. "Would you give me the honor?" he questioned extending his hair, I took it with no thoughts in mind and he guided us to the middle of the floor.

"So what's your plan on getting their attention?" 

"You" he said while spinning me to the middle of the dance floor, I smiled while I tilted my head wondering what he meant.

"What does that mean?" I asked standing in the middle of the floor waiting for him to reach me

"Do you know the vienesse waltz?" he asked while the sound of the violins reached its end

I nodded a yes thinking back to my father, who loved to dance the waltz with my mother, and teached me a few ball dances.

The music stopped, and in that small pause he walked towards me quickly when his face was inched from mine, our breaths exchanged, his hands grabbed my hips and lift me up in the hair giving one gracefully turn in the air, when he putted me down, the orchestra started softly and he swung me over.

It felt all so natural, he was guiding the steps with such grace, and I could only simply follow his lead with as much grace as him.

Whenever his hands rubbed into my waist, I could feel my breathe sharpen. The way he looked at me, made tricks to my heart. The music seemed to slow down at each move he gave, the world stopped and I believe that everyone in the ball room simply dissapeared.

His hands traveled to my back pulling me close, my chest inches away from his, his eyes piercing through my soul. "Did I already told you how stunning you look?"

"A couple of times" I breathed

"Its funny how you don't know how beautiful you are" He smiled back at me while twirling

"It's funny how exaggerated you are" I commented while he stopped in front of me the song came to an end and so did our waltz

" I will look at you across any room and I'll always think that you're the most beautiful person I've seen" he breathed, his eyes sparkled and my heart melted at his words while my cheeks turned as soft shade of pink, his hand sweetly caressed my face and his finger moved my chin upwards so our faces could be closer. He throw a soft smile and I felt his tender lips pressed against mine making my eyes shut down. The kiss was simple, just his lips against mine but at that moment I felt like he had never kissed me like that before. "I-" he tried to say but we were interrupted by a man tapping Blaze's arm carefully.

It was an employee "Sir. Blaze Maxwell?" Blaze nodded confirm it was him "Please follow me, both" he said looking at me too

I frowned at Blaze, wondering what was the meaning of this but once I saw Blase contempt face I knew, this was part of the plan.

The man guided us through big marmore stairs, till we stopped in some red curtains "you may get in" he mentioned as he walked away from us

"What is that? Narnia?" I questioned looking at big red curtains, Blazed chuckled at my comment and grabbed my hand

"The VIP's" he said guiding me inside, he passed through the curtains meeting an alternative universe. A rich rich alternative universe.

We entered into a VIP lounge room, the couches in red velvet, the floor filled with ancient carpets, the lights of the room were dim, there candles in each table and small golden bar with one single waiter breathing the ice in perfect orbs.

"Ah Mr. Maxwell -" a tall man with withe beard and sunglasses called out our attention "and Miss Maxwell I presume" he said extending his hand to shake Blaze's. While he took my hand unexpectedly to kiss the back of it, I gave a small smile with my lips pressed not really liking the direct and non consented touch. "Enchanted" he said smiling at me through his big white beard

"I am Igar Tollefson" he introduced himself "I received your suggestions Mr. Maxwell, I would like to discuss them, please your wife should join too. Should we seat?" he said pointing at the table across the room hiden in some red curtains

We followed him sitting down in the red velvet couch, while the waiter reached near us "Will you want something to drink?"

"A bourbon with ice" Blaze said rearranging his blazer while sitting down

"A martini" I requested, the waiter took the orders and left us with Igar, I recalled what Blaze as told me before, if I am not wrong Igar is one of the possibilities for Blaze's new project.

"Mr. Blaze I must say the dancing with your beautiful wife caught my attention" he smiled while drinking a whisky that was previously on the table, probably his. I blushed at his compliment while Blaze smiled on reply in a somewhat vain way.

Mr. Igar talked with Blaze about the new project, the whole idea of having and starting a business here. They discussed the place, the expected prizes and much more.

To our surprise when we left Igar another man wanted our attention.

Blaze pov

My plan was going according to plan, surely my wife helped at gathering the attention of this gentleman. It was amazing how she was so blind about her own beauty, how can she not realize how her beauty is transcendent and irradiated through everyone?

Stéphan Bonavi, stopped in front of us, a man of power and luxury and surely of great connections and money. He asked for me to go along with him so we could have a talk, he proposed us to go alone, just me and him, but I could not accept such discriminating offer.

"She is my wife, Mr. Bonavi. She knows everything and she is a part of my decisions too. So she will join us" I explained, he hummed unpleased by my assertiveness.

He guided us to somewhere quieter where we could watch the ball downstairs. A big balcony, that allowed us to view the whole ball downstairs, quite entertaining, and pretty expensive too.

Mr. Bonavi started his proposals, which were unexpectedly higher than Mr. Igar so I thought about lying a bit and realizing those numbers, which I successfully did.

The offer was still on the table but making impulsive deals is really not my style so, I asked for some time to consider and put the terms and benefits on a professional way.

Gladly, Mr. Bonavi accepted the offer, he proposed to reunite again over a more causal reunion, with the terms and all of the information written on paper for discussion.

I was more than pleased with what I have achieved today and I planned on telling Mr. Igar next that he had competition let's see who has the best
offer in-game.

The works and the reunions left me tired and so did Eleonora, I looked at her tired face once we left Me. Bonavi and proposed to leave "Should we go have some sleep?" I asked her, she nodded in her tired and speppy face making me smile at her cuteness

"Let me just go to the bathroom and we will leave" I said, she nodded at me sitting down in the hallway near the bathroom. I got in and after I was done I washed my hands and through the mirror a man was standing next to me, I frowned at the similar face.

"Mr. Mancini"

"Mr.Maxwell" the Italian man smirked leaving an uneasy sensation on my skin "I heard you are quiet curious about me and my business" he mentioned. That was quite true, Mr. Mancini has always been something I was quite curious about, his whole food chain seems mostly given or fake. Not to mention the uncontrollable remark he has about the Italian mafia.

"I was wondering if your business was safe for me to bet on it. Maybe a collaboration" I lied

"Nothing is safe with me, Mr.Maxwell and I advise you to step away from my business land. Europe is too big for you, you might drown in your greediness."

I smiled at his almost threat "Thank God I know how to swim."

He laughed at my answer "Let's just there are no sharks, then" he said leaving the bathroom. I frowned at his words but honestly in the business I am and with the amount of money that comes with it, it's pretty easy to gain enemies and these short of threats are nothing that I've seen before.

I got out of the bathroom to meet my wife talking on with... Austin. Amazing, he always manages to find her, in this big events... I mean of course he had to be here, it's a exclusive party, he had to join of course. He is always here, wondering around and somehow he always ends up at her lap.

I took a deep breath focusing on the two, my chest seemed heavier then normal "Austin"

"Oh Blaze! How are you pal?" he questioned all smiley, I couldn't reciprocate the happiness, my face held no emotion and my hand drive softly to her waist grabbing her firmly. She looked at me surprised but I guess Austin took the tip

"Great, you?"

"Yeah- I am just fine..." he said looking at the both of us "I have a- to go... I hope you guys a rest of a great night" he commented giving one last smile and walking away.

"Jealousy suits you" she said taking my hand out of her waist. I looked away trying to guess the obvious.

"You're so cute" she said locking her fingers into mine making my heart beat faster "Let's go"
