1 Chapter One

"....For the third time honey, you should forget about that douche. Not worth your time." Bianca said.

Siara just took a glance on her best friend, not responding. She has been playing with her number four glass of shot while looking through the sea beside her on the edge of the cliff. She was in Bali now, Single Fin restaurant in Uluwatu region to be exact, escaped from her broken heart and tried to celebrate her birthday in two days from now. Then she heard Bianca spoke again.

"You need to forget Julian, okay? He is bad news." Bianca took a sip of her beer, "You just need to having fun for now, talking to stranger and get laid girl."

Siara cringed at the thought of get laid. The way Bianca said those words, it was like she just need sex to mend her broken heart. But the truth to be told, was more than that. She already gave her heart, body and soul to Julian. She need more than just one night stand to had another relationship with some guy. Siara let out a breath from her mouth, thought a better way to move on. Then she heard Bianca giggling as she leaned her ear to her boyfriend, Octav, whispered something to her. Sometimes Siara envied the way Bianca and her boyfriend loving each other. They were the epitome of balance between love and lust, something that Siara needed in every man she was going out with.

The thought itself, brought back some memories of her relationship with her latest guy she's going out with. She couldn't recall Julian as her ex due to their complicated relationship. It was true that they were does numerous dates, texting and calls, even sex. But she saw in Julian eyes so many times that he doesn't held love to her. Even though she knew this, she still loved him without any doubt. Still gave him more than he deserved and look where she gotten into? Julian was never took her seriously and now he was already with someone else, left her alone and desperate on her holiday.

"One margarita for the lady." Siara and Bianca furrowed their eyebrows as they looked to the waiter that brought margarita to their table.

"We didn't order that." Siara said.

"Oh, it's from the man at the bar." The waiter pointed his finger to the bar.

Siara turned her head and saw a man lifted his glass as a cue that he was the one that send the drink to her. She nodded her head to man and cast as small smile to the waiter. Now she turned her head again to Bianca only to saw her grinned from ear to ear. Siara know that meant and she rolled her eyes.

"I know what you're thinking." Siara said, not looking at Bianca.

"This is perfect, S. He's a piece of meat and you can forget the douche." Bianca exclaimed.

Siara sighed, "I'm not in here to having one night stand to a stranger."

"Then get to know him. At least he's already bought you a drink."

Siara bit her lower lip, debating whether she should approach the man or not. Then she heard Bianca said something to her.

"S, you need this. You need to enjoy our holiday. Be happy. It's fine if you don't end up having sex with the guy, but at least enjoy it while it last." Bianca ordered her.

Siara only nod her head then grab her margarita. She walk to the bar, approaching the man who bought her drink. She smiled to him from afar and the man replied with the big smile, showed his pearl white teeth. Siara notice as she got close to him, the man was definitely a gorgeous creature. His crystal green eyes captivated her, more like jade than the green itself. She knew that the man was like 6 feet tall and had a good looking body because Siara could saw the muscles from his chest and arms. His dark black hair combed neatly. As the way he dressed, she got a feeling that the man was someone important. He was wearing a blue shirt that combine with grey vest and a pair of grey trouser, matching with the vest. He was way too formal for just chilling out on the bar.

When she already beside him, she opened her mouth and say, "Thank you for the margarita."

His green eyes twinkle, "Anything for the beautiful lady."

"May I know why you bought me a drink?" Siara asked.

"Because, that way, you're the one who approach me." He answered. His voice was deep, husky and sexy.

Siara couldn't help but smile again. Her cheeks are turned red. "So, that's one of your trick to get a girl?"

"There's always a first time for everything I guess." The man took a sip of his drink.

Siara rolled her eyes and shook her head, "Yeah, right."

The man chuckled lightly. His chuckle was so deep and sexy, even sound seductive to Siara ears. The sound itself brought shiver down to her spine as she listen to it. It made her head turn to saw the man already looked her way. They just stared at each other. The tension was thick until Siara averted her gaze to the sea in front of her. She cleared her throat.

"So, business or pleasure?" Siara asked again.

"Business," then the man leaned forward to Siara. His mouth so close to her right ear, made her breath hitched, "but when I saw you came from that patio I think I might find pleasure as well."

He leaned his body forward lightly and saw Siara's eyes widened. She turned her head to her drink, but couldn't hide the small smile on her red lips. The man smirked because he had the effect to the young woman in front of him.

"Don't worry, it's not like I want to pleasure myself with something like that." The man said.

"What's like that? Do you know what I've been thinking?"

"It's clear in your eyes." He smirked again, "I'm Jonathan."

She smiled, genuine this time. "Siara."

"It suits you, 'cause it's beautiful." He folded his arms over the bar, "I'm guessing you're in Bali for holiday?"

Siara nod her head lightly, "Yeah, my birthday is in two days."

"Ah, so you celebrate it in here?" Siara nod again, "Classy." He answered.

"What kind of business you're doing in here?" Siara sip her margarita. The liquid felt refreshing in her throat than the shots she had before.

"I'm investing some property in here." Jonathan replied again.

"So what? You like a rich guy in here?" Siara mocked.

He chuckled seductively, again. "I own a company in London baby. I'm the CEO."

"What?!" Siara looked taken aback. "Oh dear God, I'm actually having a conversation with a CEO. A frickin' CEO!!"

"Okay, Siara, take a deep breath please. It's not that bad." He patted Siara's arms gently.

"Bad? No, that's not what I think." Siara's answered.

"Than what is it?" Jonathan furrowed his eyebrows.

Her eyes looked here and there but not to his face, "It's just... well, you know..."

"Just say it, Siara." His tone was demanding.

Siara sighed, "It's just, you can talk to someone else who's much better than me. Clearly I'm just nobody, a girl with a heart break and try to move on by having a holiday in here."

"Well, to me, we're destined to meet somehow." He stated.

"And why is that?"

"You can give me pleasure and I can give you something to make you forget. Isn't that a perfect situation?"

Siara could only blushed red hearing Jonathan's statement. She could saw clearly in his eyes that the pleasure he wanted not only having a conversation with her, but also something more. The thought made her body chill and some naughty thought flashed in her head. Maybe Bianca was right. She needed to get laid to forgot that her heart was hurt and Jonathan gave her something not only she wanted it, but needed too. The way Jonathan flirting with her is obvious. He wanted her in bed.

She never once had one night stand for all her life. Just thought about it, having sex with someone she barely knew, brought fear but also excitement to her body. Siara knows, no girl would reject Jonathan. He just not good looking, but also smart and know how to treat a girl in front of him. Clearly, he was already done this numerous times. The alcohol in her system made her forgot her sanity. Just one look in Jonathan eyes, she already made a choice. If Jonathan wanted her in his bed, right now, than she would gladly took the offer. She know this, it was all because the alcohol she got.

"You okay?" Jonathan asked.

His voice made her brought back to reality. She blinked twice and smiled to him, "Yeah, I'm fine."

Jonathan looked at the watch in his wrist then to Siara's face again, "I have to go to dinner meeting in an hour. Can I meet you later after my meeting?"

Siara looked shock a bit, "You want to meet me again?"

"Why not Siara? I thought I already explain it to you that we're in perfect situation. We're meant for each other right now."

"Well I was thought... that you... um..." She stuttered.

Jonathan smiled, looks very genuine. "No Siara, I'm not taking you to my bed if that's what you think. I know we're having a different culture, therefore I would like to know you first before we're taking to next step. You okay with that right?"

"Um, yeah." She answered, bit disappointed.

"Or do you want me to take you to my bed? Just for your information, Siara, when you're in my bed, I'm not going to let you go just like that and I'm going to take you hard and rough that you'll be screaming my name so loud and I'm going to leave you sore that you can't walk for days." Jonathan said possessively.

The way Jonathan said that, Siara could felt the heat of her core, wanting him to touch her now every inch of her body. Jonathan saw her lips parted. He touched her lower red lip and caressing it gentle. Then he smiled to her.

"But no. I want to take my time to know you little more. Eventually we will get what we wanted in the end. Don't you agree, Siara?"

She only nod.

"I see you later then?"

"Um, how about tomorrow? You busy?" She asked. Felt so captivated in his jade eyes.

He grinned from ear to ear and answered her question, "No, I'm perfectly free tomorrow. What do you got in mind, Siara?"

"Why don't you come with me enjoying some good spots in Bali with my friends over there?" She pointed Bianca and Octav's table. Jonathan averted his gaze to their table and then back to Siara.

"Sounds good to me. Can I have your number then?"

Now it was her turn to smirked and felt bold towards him. The alcohol really doing this to her, "How about you pick me up tomorrow morning at my hotel? It's not far from here. I'm staying at Karma Kandara right now."

"Perfect. I pick you up at nine in the morning." Without she realized, Jonathan kissed her cheek which made her gasp, "Be ready by then and wear something sexier."

With that, he left her stunned because of the kiss he gave to her. A stranger just kissed her. Well, not really a stranger, but Siara only know Jonathan for a half an hour. He still a stranger to her dictionary. A sexy stranger to be exact.
