Chapter 9 CEO GRAY
LUNA’S POV
I woke when I heard someone called my name before tapping me. I opened my eyes and saw May and two other maids standing there.
“Good Morning” They all greeted.
“Good morning, May, is everything okay?” I asked checking the time.
It’s 7:03 I’m the morning. “You’ve to go to the office with Master” May said.
“Office? What office?” I said, My heart missed a beat after I heard her say master. I just remembered what happened yesterday.
If he instructed May to get me to go to the office with him does that mean he didn’t mind about what happened last year? Or is he going to kill.
“Hey Ma, I’ve been talking to you” May said tapping me..
“Sorry, I dozed off” I muttered.
“Master wants you to go to the office with him and he won’t want you delaying him. You have…” May stopped and check her wrist watch.
“You’ve 26 minutes to get ready”
“What ? 26 minutes!” I exclaimed and immediately stood up. He had made it clear to me that he doesn’t like being kept waiting.
“We will get your dress ready!” May yelled after me.
I rushed into the bathroom and quickly brush my teeth, then took off my clothes and went into the bath tub. The water is warm and I knew it was May that must have prepared it.

I walked into the bathroom after I was done bathing, It’s just may in my room now and she have brought have my wear and arranged other thing. it was a pink gown and its Beautiful, I wonder if they knew I was going to be here and then went on to buy me wear and stuffs.
“Thank you” I told May and she smiled at me.
“You’ve 17 more minutes, I’ll be outside the door incase you needed something” She bowed and walked out shutting the door behind.
Why are the maid treating me like their madam? Why are they giving me so much respect?” I said and immediately start applying lotion in my body before putting on the dress .
It brought out all my curves as I stare at the mirror, It makes me feel a little uncomfortable but at the same time, I like the dress. I’ve never had something like this in my life, I’ve never seen myself this beautiful like I’m seeing now.
May knocked at the door before walking in. “5 more minutes, Please be fast as we will also get punished if you’re late” She said.
“I’m done, I’ll just grab my purse” I told her picking up the black beautiful purse that she had left for me on the bed.
“Okay” She said and walked out of the door again.
I stared at myself on the mirror one more time before I walk out. May was waiting at the door and she has dismissed the other two maids, she seem to be a senior maid here.
“You look beautiful” She said and i blushed.
“Thank you, May” I said.
She led the way downstairs and there I was Gray stood in the middle of the sitting room engrossed in his phone. He was backing the stairs and he was tapping his legs on the floor.
I swallowed hard, Where is Elsa? She could’ve been the one to make me feel more comfortable. What happened yesterday still left me sick and I hope he’s not going to kill me after all.
What Elsa said, is it true? Did he do that on purpose? Then he notice my presence when I entered?.
Of course he did! Even if he didn’t, when he saw me fell he could’ve yell and order the guards to kill me immediately.
“Master, she’s ready” May said when we reached end of the stairs.
Gray turned and looked up at me, he was masked again! In blue, he was looking more handsome than I saw him yesterday. I couldn’t look him at his face so I just stared at the floor.
He didn’t utter a word as he just walked out with five guards following him immediately. He sure have people at his feet.
“Follow him!” May whispered.
“What, huh?” I muttered shaking visibly.
“C’mon Luna! Have a nice day” she said and immediately left the sitting room , I swallowed and walked outside the house. One of the guard among the remaining two in the sitting room thrilled behind me.
They were lot of guards outside the house and just few Inside. I walked outside just in time to see one of guards shutting the back range Rover he just entered. The guard walked to the other door and opened it, it’s still the same car Gray is in.
Am I supposed to sit in the same car with him? I’d not try keeping him waiting. I walked towards the car breathing heavily like I’m going to die soon. My walking step suddenly change and I feel myself walking like a cat, you know that feeling when you know someone’s eyes on you? That’s what I’m feeling now. I slowly hop into the car and the guard shut the door.
He didn’t enter the same car, he walked to the one behind us.
“Good Morning Master” I muttered and bowed my head a little.
He glance at me and took his eyes off immediately.
“Drive!” He said to the driver.
The driver pressed on the horn and the two cars in front of ours starts driving out of the compound, there’s another one car behind us. The driver followed and we were out of the compound in no time.
I stared at the window as I admire the streets, Gray is silent and had focused on his phone as usual. There’s nothing to do and I don’t have my own phone so I just stared out of the window, bored.
What is my mission here? Why did he bought me? He didn’t use me as his sex slave like I heard men who bought girl do, so why is he keeping me? Did he bought me to save me from being bought by an old, wicked man?
No? Arghhh!
“What do you mean?” I heard him said and I turned to look at his side, he was on call and he looked very angry.
“Why did you allow him in, are that stupid? Can’t you be dedicated to your work!” He yelled.
I couldn’t hear the voice of who he was talking with but I know whoever he’s talking with now but be apologizing.
“I’ll be there, and I don’t want to see you when I arrive” He said and ended the call.
I got lost staring at him, Despite being on mask he’s still extremely handsome. His ocean eyes is something I know I won’t get tired staring at.
How can he be so handsome and grumpy at the same time? Shouldn’t he be happy that he’s just so perfect? Why is he so cold?.
I know alot of people will be digging to see his face, Elsa said the last two people that sneaked up on him and saw his face were killed… No , was tortured and no one heard about them again, they were probably killed. And I, I that doesn’t know anything get to see his face without making any effort?
Sadly, I hadn’t see his face. I slipped off from my chair and wasn’t able to catch a glimpse of his face, it took me unaware. His well combed dark hair suited him so much and he has one of his ears pierced and he has a gold earring on.
Geez! He’s just so handsome and perfect, Who is he? I’m just a local girl who knows nothing about social media, I’m sure if I’m into it, I’ll have been seeing so much about him. Elsa said he is quite popular.
Is he the richest too? Urgh! So mouthwatering, I bite my lower lips.
“Can you stop looking!” He frowned, I saw it on his forehead.
I looked away embarrassed, had he been staring back too? I was so engrossed that I didn’t notice he had catch me looking at him, now he’ll think I’m already falling in love with it which I assume is never going to happen.
He’s too cold for my liking.
“I’m sorry ” I said and stared outside the window again.
Gosh, I felt goosepimple in my body already, was I drooling? No! I was just admiring him.
I mean it’s okay to admire someone right? Does he admire me too?. Okay stop it Luna, you’re thinking so much,” I muttered hitting my head.
“Hmm” i heard him hummed.
Did I say that out too?.
__
The car pulled over in a very huge mansion, The guards rush over and opened the car for Gray and me, why are they so nice?.
“Wow!” I muttered seeing how big the Mansion is. The mansion isn’t as big and beautiful as his house, but this is beautiful too.
“It’s CEO Gray!” A lady yelled.
“Huh?” I muttered and looked at him, he’s standing next to me now, his hand tucked into his trouser. The eight guards circled us as people starting rushing to us shouting his name. He ignored and start walking, I followed and the guards did their best in preventing the guards from touching him.. and me too.
“Wow!” Is he really this popular?.
