Chapter 1

“I’m so sorry I’m late!” Steffy Raines tells her co-workers as she came into the conference room of Hart & Son Attorneys at Law for their meeting. 

“Why, Steffy, it’s a pleasure to have you here!” Carol, Steffy’s boss said.

“My alarm didn’t wake me this morning.” Steffy threw out her excuse.

“It’s okay.  Just have a seat, and let me get the meeting started.” Carol told her.

Steffy took a seat next to the client who was there to discuss his case. 

“Now, staff I’d like you to meet our new client, Prince Jordan Ashley.” Carol said, introducing Jordan to the staff, who warmly smiled at Steffy. 

Steffy was put off by Prince Jordan’s sincerity.  Giving a quick smile, Steffy turned her attention back to Carol.

“Now, I’ll turn the floor over to Prince Jordan, who will fill you in on his case.” Carol said, as she motioned to Jordan that he had the floor.

As Steffy listened, she had the unnerving feeling that Prince Jordan was looking straight at her.  it gave her shivers as she grew uncomfortable with the Prince’s gaze. 

After the meeting, Steffy tried to exit the conference room, but Prince Jordan stopped her before she could leave.

“Miss Raines, could I have a word with you?” Prince Jordan asked Steffy.

Not wanting to risk offending the company’s client, Steffy reluctantly gave in and stayed in the conference room.

“Yes, Prince Jordan, what can I do for you?” Steffy asked.

“I’d like to request that you join me on my family’s yacht for a soiree tonight?” the Prince asked, making her believe that it was more a demand than a request.

“Gee, I’d love to but…” Steffy began, but the Prince shook his head as if to let her know that he always got what he wanted.  “Sure.  I’d love to.”

“Well, then, now that that’s out of the way….” Prince Jordan said.  “You can go do what you were going to do.  I’ll phone you the details later.”

“Should I give you my phone number?”

“Know, I’ll get it later from Carol.”

“Thank you.” Steffy cordially replied.

“Until then.” Prince Jordan smiled at her as he left the office building.

Steffy felt like she was being pushed into something she didn’t really want.  And when Steffy was pushed into something, usually it wasn’t a good picture.  Steffy wondered what Prince Jordan Ashley wanted with her?
