George Lee was a very cunning and shrewd man. He only attended parties as part of formalities and it quite shocked him when Jason sent him an invite to this ball. It seemed that annoying neice of his was finally doing her part. He rather be in his office or the house breaking in a new girl. Somehow destroying their willpower and self value gave him as much pleasure as taking them afterwards. He also still had that actress to find, who knew where she was roaming. Looses ends always had a way of coming back to bite you and he learned that the hard way.

He couldn't wait to leave this place and get back to the newest girl, she had quite a temper, exhilarating! But when he set his eyes on the woman descending the stairs he froze for a second. 

While his neice was often the prettiest woman in a room, and though he had been with too many women to count he hadn't seen this level of perfection. She had to have gotten surgery right? Her mask covered her face all the way to her nose, but he was still enamored. Her body, in that dress. Suddenly a dirty thought of her long legs wrapped around his torso as he moved inside her entered his mind. He must have her!

So he pushed his way to the bottom of the stairs, as soon as he reached he clashed with Jason Kang.

"What are you doing?" Jason asked him sternly as the woman took her last step.

"What does it look like, I'm asking this beautiful lady to dance." He replied curtly looking at Jessie. 

Jessie eyes narrowed at the handsome man and she frowned. "How do you know I'm beautiful?" She asked.

Goerge smiled at her retort, she had an attitude too, even better. "Look around the room, who is everyone enamored by?" He asked smoothly and she did.

"The beautiful lady in red." She pointed at an approaching Patricia. 

"She doesn't even compare." Goerge stated.

Jason watched the scene before him with a twitching eye. What the hell is going on?

He quickly grabbed Jessie arm and made to pull her away but Patricia appeared just in time.

"Jason? I've been looking everywhere for you, you just disappeared after our waltz." She said smoothly, her voice carrying the same enticing tone as the man before Jessie. 

"Why? Did you need something?" He asked curtly. 

"Do I need to need something to be with my fiance?" She pouted "You can't just keep me hanging with one dance. Let's go dance." She tugged on his arm.

Jessie gaze immediately hardened and she glared at Patricia. That's right, he was her fiance. 

"I don't really think that's a good idea we should dance with other people as good hosts." Jason said. 

"Oh please, no one cares about that." She dismissed him.

"Still we sho-"

"You offered me a dance right? Let's go." Jessie interrupted Jason. Goerge smiled as he extended his arm for Jessie to take which she did, with one last look she walked away with the mysterious stranger. 

Jason wanted to pull out his hair in frustration. How stubborn can she be?! How did she not know he was the man that had her in an auction house?! Why, just why must she always be so difficult?

*************************************************

Jonathan searched everywhere for Jessie. If they were going to go it had to be soon. Where did she run off too? He saw Krystal as he approached, stuffing her face at the banquet table. His lips tilted in a small smile, she looked around and sighted him.

Smiling brightly as she waved to him. 'So that's why she insisted on carrying her purse' he thought with a smile. She quickly stuffed what she could and walked to him.

"Hey boss!" She replied cheekily.

"You never fail to amuse me, have you seen Jessie? We need to leave this obnoxious party, I'd prefer we do it soon." He stated. 

Krystal carefree gaze suddenly became meek. "Ah... you must not have seen her." She said.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

Krystal pointed at the ball room below them. Jonathan walked crossed to the railing and looked down. His looked confused at first then his eyes landed the short brown hair he was itching to touch earlier. 

'What the actual fuck?!' Why was she in a mind blowing dress that hugged her every curve, dancing with his brother?

Why the hell did they look at themselves that way? His plams immediately clenched into fists as his expression darkened. 

Krystal didn't miss a single thing. She looked down at Jessie, dancing with Jason at that very moment then at Jonathan. She was right, he liked her. It was hard not to see, even without taking off her mask she was the belle of the ball. How she pulled off that dress so effortlessly if only she had her phone or a camera, she would be all over the internet. 

She walked closer to Jonathan. "You like Jessie don't you?" 

"What? What makes you say that?" Jonathan asked his guard up.

"It's pretty obvious, I see the way you look at her." Krystal stated.

Jonathan stood straight and pocketed his hands, looking down at her. "Really? So what?" 

"It must hurt right?" Krystal asked. 

"What?"

"I saw you two... earlier, when you stared at her and she stared at your brother." 

"I asked you a question, so what?" He repeated, sounding sterner.

"No it's just... I hope you don't let you feelings get in the way of keeping her safe and proving her innocence." Krystal said bluntly. 

Jonathan scoffed looking away then back at her. "Aren't you supposed to be happy that I have feelings for her? Doesn't that mean I will do a better job at protecting her?" 

"Not necessarily, love is a dangerous emotion. Especially an unrequited love, plus the person she likes is your brother. You should be careful not to mix your personal feelings with what we have to do." She advised him with a small smile.

Jonathan laughed lowly. "You're really so brave aren't you?"

"No need to get vicious and aggressive. I'm just stating facts, Jessie is important to me. And as I have said before, I won't let anything hurt her again if I can stop it. And that also included you." She said, keeping her expressions light but her eyes intense. "Since the plan is truly off I'll go enjoy the party." She said walking away.

Jonathan turned to watch her walk away with a sinister look in his eyes, unrequited love? Was that what this was? How nice.

Preview 148: Perfect in imperfections. 

"May I have this dance?" Jason asked.

Jessie smiled and nodded and he twirled her around and pulled her to him as they began to dance under the alluring and enchanting light the moon gave off.

Patricia stared at them with wide eyes, she was Jessie Marin. And she was with her Jason? How did that happen?

"Have I told how beautiful you look in that dress?" He whispered into her ear.

"You seem to know what would suit me perfectly." She nodded, against his neck.

"Take this off."
