Is this real?

He nearly smiled. This is just the start, baby.

Josie and Bessie were miracle workers, not only because they were exceptionally skilled at what they were doing but also because of the speed in which they waved their wand for an instant makeover. Under just half an hour, Daisy Rae's silvery tresses were silky and shiny, and all she could do was gasp when she turned to face the full-length mirror they had rolled up in front of her.

Since she didn't know a thing about makeup, she had no idea what they had used on her face. All she knew was that her eyes now seemed bigger, her lashes longer, and her lips fuller.

Almost kissable even...like his.

Garion, who had been watching Daisy Rae all this time, ended up coughing when he read the movement of her lips.

Daisy Rae turned to him in concern. "Are you alright?"

"He's probably just blown away at how hot you are," Josie answered on the billionaire's behalf.

Bessie then drew Daisy towards the selection of outfits they had prepared. "Do you see anything you like Or would you like us to choose for you instead?"

"The latter," Daisy Rae said in relief. "I don't really know much about fashion."

Bessie turned to the billionaire, asking slyly, "And you, Mr. Ross? Do you have any preferences?"

"I'm partial to silver," he had no qualms saying.

The two women grinned. "Silver it is."

And that was how Daisy Rae ended up in a glittery silver dress that was easily the most beautiful thing she had ever seen in her life.

"Now this." Josie knelt down to take out a pair of strappy sandals from a box, and Daisy Rae carefully slid her feet into them. It was a perfect fit, and the thought made her feel like Cinderella.

Josie asked her to slowly turn around, and Bessie started taking photos.

"For the business gram," the latter explained cheekily. "It's not every day our humble little shop gets called on to dress the first woman Garion Ross will be seen publicly with in years."

"And speaking of publicly..." Garion stepped in front of Daisy Rae. "I can't let have my future wife—-"

The two stylists gasped while Daisy Rae's lips parted in shock.

"—-have an evening out with her throat bare."

Daisy Rae couldn't believe her eyes when an assistant came forward to present a jewelry box. Inside it was a diamond choker, and she immediately stepped back with a shake of her head. "I don't think—-"

Garion bent his head, and his whisper caressed her ear. "Exactly, baby. You don't have to think about anything. You just have to wear it." She heard a snap as soon as he finished speaking, and Daisy Rae realized his words were only meant to distract her from seeing what he was doing.

When Garion stepped back, Daisy Rae automatically glanced down, and the way all of those tiny expensive diamonds circling her throat were winking up at her had her knees feeling a little wobbly.

This almost makes me feel like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman.

"She was a hooker, though."

The words made her head jerk up. "H-How—-"

"You mumble your thoughts silently at times," Garion said lazily, "and I'm very good at reading lips."

He was good at reading lips?

Wait a minute.

Lips.

Didn't she have this crazy thought earlier about how her lips right now almost looked as kissable—-

Oh God.

The billionaire's lips curved. "What are you calling God for?"

"OH GOD."

Garion laughed.

Daisy Rae looked around her and felt the slightest bit panicky when she realized it was only the two of them, and Josie and Bessie had somehow managed to leave the room without her knowing.

Fingers were suddenly clasping the sides of her waist from behind, and Daisy Rae's heart skipped a beat as the billionaire turned her around to face him.

"How about now, baby?"

The thickness of his tone made her feel lightheaded.

"Do you still think my lips are...what was that word you used again? Kissable?"

Her knees knocked against each other, and his grip on her waist automatically tightened.

Daisy Rae's gaze slowly drifted up to his mouth.

Oh. My.

His lips curved, and a helpless laugh escaped her when she realized he had been reading her lips again.

"Shall I take that as a yes?" Garion whispered.

Careful, Daisy Rae. Think twice. Think thrice. Be very, very careful.

But in the end, she still heard herself say, "I'm not sure."

"I see..." And the way his hazel eyes were now gleaming down at her told Daisy Rae that he did see what she was oh so foolishly hinting at.

"So as to avoid any ambiguity on that matter, would you care to put it to the test?"

Say no, Daisy Rae. There could still be a curse! You need to be careful!

But instead she ended up not having a care in the world.

With the billionaire so, so close, the temptation to play with fire became impossible to resist, and Daisy Rae saw the gleam in his gaze turn into a glitter of triumph as she slowly allowed herself to nod.
