Today, Sera had decided to take a day off. Lately, she hadn't taken any day to cool off, she has been busy either with her work or either by being in her father's shop acting as a receptionist.
Unknown to Alex being the receptionist at Smith's store was not her main job, they have proper receptionists, one of them was on maternity leave while the other, well, had some family issues to settle reason why she wasn't often present.
Alex would be surprised if learn this fact. Sera thought.
Talking about the boy in question, Sera couldn't help but shook her head. The boy was too normal for her taste to be the person Leena was waiting for.
Truth be told there was a little bit of air of mystery around the boy, however that's all. Ask Sera if she would have accepted that Alex was the one Leena was looking for if it wasn't Leena who said it herself.
There is a quote that said 'Do not judge a book by its cover.'
''I guess it's true.'' She mumbled.
''What? Sera did you say something?" Delphi, the receptionist at Dior's store asked.
Sera shook her head, ''No, I wasn't talking to you, I was lost in thought.''
''How rare to see the always serious Sera be lost in thought. Tell me what is bothering you? Maybe it's about a boy? If it's, this Big sister will help you.'' Delphi announced with her arms crossed emphasizing her Big assets who would have made any normal man gulp.
For a moment Sera's eyes were drawn toward those Big melons, she couldn't help but shook her head, if she had these it would have been a hindrance in her job. Men seem to like it Big, though.
'What I'm thinking?' She wondered before shaking her head.
''No, I was simply lost in thought. I wasn't thinking about a man.''
Delphi rolled her eyes but choose not to comment any further. The face she was previously making was the face of someone thinking about a man (Not forcibly romantically), as an expert, Delphi knew it (Auto-proclaimed, though).
Suddenly, Delphi remembered that young man with beautiful green eyes and his lovely little sister. How badly she wants to see them again, especially the man. Maybe she will gain the little sister's trust first, then her approval before slowly get the man itself. The man is her type and more importantly, she was sure he was destined to do big things, just thinking about it aroused her.
''Umu! This plan should works.'' Delphi mumbled while licking her lower lip seductively, she had hungry look in her eyes.
Sera who was looking at Delphi shuddered, she felt a chill running down her spine. Whatever going through her mind, whatever she's planning spell trouble for whoever it was destined for, because she had a look of a predator, not your typical one but a sexual predator's look.
At the same time, Alex was about to arrive at the northern gate but suddenly he stopped moving because his Six senses warned him of incoming extreme danger. He felt goosebumps all over his body, hastily checking everywhere he did not find anything nor his Divine Sense caught something.
'It's must be my imagination.' Alex thought before continued walking.
Back to Sera's location.
After paying the bill she hastily left to not be drawn in whatever Delphi was planning, especially when she became aware who was the target. She could only pray for him not to be caught by the succubus or else he will be sucked dry.
''Sera let's have dinner one of these four to chat between girls. To exchange ideas.'' Delphi shouted at the retreating Sera's back.
'Like hell, I will.' Sera thought but did not say it aloud. Delphi can be considered one of her rare friends, if not her only friend in this city.
Shaking her head she decided to move toward her next destination, a jewelry store to buy earrings.
By the way, today she was dressed in short black jeans and black leggings with ballerinas, on top, she wore what looks like a Women's Casual Lapel Slim Long Sleeve Denim Outercoat Jacket Windbreaker.
The first time Alex saw the dress code of this world, he was astonished, it wasn't that different from the one on Earth.
Sera's hair was braided style's Dutch braid. Overall she was extremely beautiful. Every man she passed glanced in her way, however, most of them knew her, who was her dad. Knowing her attitude nobody tried to woo her, they just exchanged greetings.
After leaving the jewelry store, Sera decided to buy an Ice cream. No matter which world, women are Ice cream lovers.
''Good evening, Ms. Lisa.'' Sera greeted the middle-aged woman at the Ice cream store.
''Evening Little Sera. You look beautiful, where's your date?" Ms. Lisa asked face full of smile.
Chuckling Sera responded, ''There no one. I'm alone. One Soft Ice cream please.''
''What a shame.'' Ms. Lisa said and started preparing the Soft Ice cream.
Suddenly, there was a commotion behind and even without turning around Sera knew some annoying flies were coming her way.
She could not help but heave a sigh, even Ms. Lisa's face contorted for a moment before regaining its normalness (business smile).
''Hello, gorgeous I'm Larry Fishburns.'' A young man who seemed to be in her early twenties approached Sera and said. He had short brown hair and eyes of the same hue. He was wearing a plain shirt and left it unbuttoned at the top for a more casual look. On top of the shirt he's wearing a trendy vest with 3 buttons, it has a fairly deep v-line, which causes the vest to line up perfectly with the jacket's v-line when it's a button-up.
The jacket was clearly made for him, it was a perfect fit. He was wearing pants which copy the style of the jacket, both in color and pattern and they make an ideal combination with his shoes. He was wearing a lavish pair of cap-toe balmorals.
All of this screams 'I'm a young Master of a noble family.'
Behind the young man were four other young men dressed more reservedly. Clearly, there was the man's lackey.
'Go burn some fish instead of coming to harass me.' Sera thought, however, it was not shown on her face. She knew this family, The Fishburns' family is a baronet house. This Larry is one of their young masters.
Turning her head around with a smile that wasn't a smile, she said,
''Evening Mr. Fishburns I'm Josie, but sorry I'm busy however I'm happy to have encountered you.''
Ms. Lina almost laughed when she heard Sera introducing herself as Josie.
Larry's complexion darkened for a moment, however, he quickly concealed it. This girl was the most beautiful woman he had seen since stepping into this desolate place, well the elf receptionist doesn't count because she was out of his league. He didn't know why but he couldn't talk after she glanced at him. One glance was all it had taken for him to forget everything he had planned to say beforehand.
And now he saw another beautiful girl, there was no way he would let her go, his trip will be boring if he were to let her go. He had not touched any women for a while. This one should do. Larry thought before putting on his most beautiful smile.
If one were to couple this smile with his little bit handsome face, it would have been fatal for women, for normal women that is.
''Don't be hasty, gorgeous. By the way, I know you are called Sera, not Josie. Let me invite you for a dinner. We will talk while trying to know more about each other.'' Larry said while flashing a smile, showing his pretty white teeth.
Sighing Sera's smile vanished, her tone turned a bit frosty as she said, ''Sorry, like I said I'm busy it will not be possible. Excuse me.''
She then took her soft Ice cream, paid, and try to leave, however, the four men behind stopped her by blocking her way.
''Young master Larry is talking to you. At least hear him out.'' Said one of them.
''Move aside,'' Sera said with her face turning more and more frosty.
''What if I don't?" asked the man.
Meanwhile, Larry was smiling not saying anything, as if what happening had nothing to do with him, he was just enjoying the show. His men will not let her go now that became aware of his interest in the girl.
When Sera wanted to make a move she heard a voice, the voice wasn't particularly loud, however, it was a powerful voice.
''Pathetic. Don't you see she's not interested? Leave her alone and by the way, she is already taken.''
Everybody turned in direction of the voice. There stood a young man dressed in a white long sleeve shirt and black pants. He had long black hair tied behind his back, he had green eyes. This black haired young man was extremely handsome, almost a perfect score. He was wearing small silver cross-shaped earrings on his left ear that gave him the look of a gangster.
Larry's face turned black when he saw the man whose smile irked him more than his Big brother.
Calming down his surging anger he asked,
''May I know who you are?"
The handsome man chuckled and said, ''I'm her man.''
The handsome man pointed his finger at Sera.
There was a long silence before Sera who had stayed silent until now said.
''Excuse me but who are you?"
