The mansion Nate and Kate will be staying in in the picture above^ 

Katherine's POV: 

I woke up as usual and did everything I do every morning. I did my morning routine, put some make-up on and did my hair in a half-up half-down hairstyle leaving yesterday's curls on. For my outfit, I decided to go with a white long sleeve dress that reaches to my knees. The bodice is very tight, but at the waist the skirt flows into pleats with a thick black lace hem at the bottom, paired with black and gold leather and lace pumps. 

I ate breakfast with everyone as well, but ignored my parents, to make everything seem normal. Then I headed back to my room and made sure everything is set for my leave 

"Ready your highness?" Barry asked as I was dragging my heavy suitcase to the door. I nodded and took a deep breath letting the reality of me leaving sink in 

"Let's go"

.............................

I just finished all checkpoints and handed my suitcases leaving only my handbag with me, and now I'm heading to the check-in since first class usually goes in first. I was turning off my phone when I hit a hard wall. I prepared myself for falling but it never happened and I felt a pair of hands wrapped around my waist preventing me from falling. What? Walls do not have hands!

I opened my eyes and found the most attractive pair of ice blue eyes staring at me with a somewhat concerned face. Oh, his face. Don't let me start telling you about his face. A jaw somehow defined, a sharp nose, and his silk jet black hair slick back neatly that I couldn't help but imagine myself running my hands through it.

My eyes then moved to his body. He wore a pair of navy trousers, a blue striped shirt with its sleeves rolled up, and a gray blazer hanging on his shoulders. Every single piece he wore screamed expensive, probably some rich snob. A very good looking rich snob.

His chest was hard meaning he works out a lot. No wonder I mistook him for a wall, I wonder what's below that shirt of his. My eyes then moved to his strong hands that are now shaking me softly, probably because I've been checking him and zoning out for a while. 

"Ma'am, are you alright?" the rich snob asked. God, his accent. He had the same British accent as me, but his seemed as if it was made just of him. I could listen to his voice all day. Snap out of it Katy, my inner self scolded and I couldn't agree more this time. What the hell is going on with me?

I looked back to his face and saw that he was smirking with a somewhat worried face. He probably caught me checking him out.

"I'm alright" I said as I got out of his hold. I picked my handbag that fell from me when I bumped into him and left as quickly as possible. Damn, that was awkward!

I hurried to my plane since I was late already. I checked-in, took my seat, and waited for the rest of the passengers. A while later, I felt someone sitting on the right side of me since I took the window seat. 

I looked to my right to see who took a seat next to me and I found the same rich snob I bumped into before. I groaned "Are you serious? Out of all people it had to be you?"

"What's wrong with me sweetheart?" he smirked "This isn't my name rich snob" I gritted through my teeth while he laughed

"Rich snob isn't my name either" he extended his hand for me to shake it "My name is Nathaniel, but close people call me Nathan" I took his hand and shook it. I felt electricity when I touched his hand and for some reason, I loved it. No one made me feel that way, not even my ex-boyfriend

"Since I'm not close and Nathaniel is too long, I'll call you Nate. My name is Katherine by the way, but close people call me Katy"

He smiled and talked in the same tone as me "Since I'm not close as well, I'll call you Kate" I smiled as well and we both nodded. No one called me Kate, but with him it sounded as if it was meant for me.

I started looking through the window and drifted in a peaceful nap.

Nathaniel's POV

The moment I bumped into her and wrapped my arms around her waist, I felt some tingles and warmth in me. It was weird and scary because I've never felt this way before, yet it was satisfying. Usually I do not care if I hurt anyone, but the moment I looked at her I was drawn to her and for some reason, I couldn't help but worry if she was alright.

I could not look at her features and admire her enough before because I was worried, but now I could since she fell asleep on my shoulder. Her cheekbones are defined, her lashes are really long naturally, her nose is tiny and cute, and her plump soft lips attracting me making me wonder how they would feel like if I kissed her. 

Her eyes are closed now, but I could still remember them when I bumped into her. They are hazel brown; somehow green when the light is on them. Even though I've seen a lot of women with hazel eyes, but with her, I was somehow drawn into them like a magnet. I feel like I could look at those hazel orbs for the rest of life and never get bored.

A couple of hair stands fell on her face covering it as she stirred lightly and cuddled to my hand more. I moved them away and put them behind her ears to get a clear look of her face. Damn, she is a natural beauty. She didn't put or need make-up to look good. She looks absolutely adorable as well right now.

Something is wrong with me, since when do I see women as adorable and cute? I really need to get laid. 

..................................

I fell asleep sometime later on Kate's head while admiring her and we ended up spending the whole flight sleeping in each other's arms. By the time we woke up, somehow half of Kate was on my lap snuggling to me and I was wrapping my arms around her and snuggling to her even more, if that's possible.

The moment Kate realized the position we were in, she got off of me as quick as possible. Both of us got ready for landing without uttering a single word since the situation was awkward already. 

The moment we landed, both of us went our separate ways. Some reason, it did not go well with me deep inside knowing I'd never be able to see her again. I miss her warmth and having her in my arms. Something is definitely wrong with me; I need to get laid the moment I arrive home.

After getting my baggage, I got out of the airport and saw the driver waiting for me "To the mansion sir?" I took a deep breath and nodded.

The air is different, the city is too crowded and the buildings are skyscrapers, but I could get used to it. We got to a somewhat less crowded and fancy area, then got through the gate to what will be my home for a while. The mansion was not as I expected, it was a bit small yet cozy at the same time. It felt homey, unlike the lifeless palace I spent my whole life in.

As I got out of the car, another car parked and Kate got out. Is she following me or something? "Are you following me" we both asked in the same time and realization seemed to hit us both at the same time

"So you're the family friend?" we asked in union again and looked at each other confused "Forget it" we answered in union

"Ugh you are so annoying, stay away from me rich snob" she huffed and got into the mansion. I followed her and just as we entered, we were both greeted by the housekeeper.

"Welcome Sir, Ma'am, I see you both arrived at the same time. My name is Maria and I'll be your housekeeper. I'll show you around in a while, but first, we have a problem" Kate and I looked at each other confused 

"There is only one bedroom ready, so you will have to sleep in the same room"

As she said that I couldn't help but imagine how it would be like to bed Kate. If actually sleeping and cuddling felt great with her, then how would sex feel. But unfortunately for me, she doesn't seem like the one night stand type of girl.

I snapped back to reality hearing Kate screaming "How is this possible? What about the rest of the rooms"

"We only have 2 bedrooms, one available and the second one is being redecorated so it might take a while to get it done. Now let me give you a tour and then you can head to your room and rest. You both must be tired and jet-lagged" as she finished, she started moving not giving us a chance to say anything else. Kate groaned and followed her, and I did the same.

The mansion had a huge library, a gym room, a theatre, a game room, and an office room which caught my attention most. I could use a work space if I want to expand my business.

"Could I use the office room" I asked Maria and she nodded "Now the last stop, your room. Hope you like it, if you need anything I'll be downstairs. Good night" she said as she guided us into the room. She closed the door and left us to ourselves.

The room looked neutral, as if it was arranged for the both of us. Neither girly nor manly. To the left were a door and a couch that couldn't possibly fit any of us and to the right was a grand bed. Another door was next to the bed and the whole wall next to it was made of glass windows that lead to a small balcony. 

I opened the door next to the couch and saw a huge walk-in wardrobe with our clothes already set in them, meaning the other door is for the bathroom.

"The couch won't even fit me, how are we going to sleep?" she said rather annoyed "You know, the bed is big enough to fit the both of us" I was somehow hoping she won't say no.

"Alright, as long as you stay on your side" I nodded, smiling on the inside "I'm going to take a shower"

I headed to the bathroom, took a quick shower, and got comfortable. By that, I mean only wearing my boxers. I usually sleep naked, but I don't want Kate getting a heart attack now. I smirked inward.

As I got out and Kate saw me, she screamed and covered her eyes "Bloody hell, where are the rest of your clothes?"

I chuckled at her reaction "I usually sleep naked but I decided to be the gentleman I am and wear some clothes"

She removed her hand and glared at me "Boxers isn't what we people call clothes. Either you get dressed or get under covers to cover everything "she moved her finger up and down "by the time I take a shower"

She got into the bathroom and did her business. A while later I heard the water go off and I heard a loud groan "Is everything alright?" I shouted from my place

"No! Nothing is alright. All my pyjamas are short and too revealing for you to see. What am I supposed to do now" I smirked liking the idea of seeing her in such clothes

"How about I close my eyes until you get under the cover" she screamed okay and I closed my eyes. I heard the door open then I heard footsteps and I couldn't help but take a peek. She wore a matching silk top and shorts. The short barely covered her smooth long legs and for a second I regretted looking. Great, now I'm going to sleep uncomfortably, with her image taking over my mind.

"You look hot!" I exclaimed and she yelled at me "You said you would close your eyes!" 

She got on the bed next to me still angry. I laid on my side facing her with my hand under my cheek and stared at her as she did the same "Good night Kate" I said softly

"Good night rich snob" she replied back with the same tone. I smiled and immediately went into darkness.
