TAKEN BY FORCE

Chapter Six

Sunday morning Josh came to pick up Liana for breakfast in his house for the first time. His house was beautiful just like she had expected it to be.

He had prepared waffles, hot rolls, bacon, sausages, eggs, toast, juice and coffee, giving her a variety to choose from. The food was delicious, Josh was a great cook, Liana was very impressed. They spent some time cuddled up on the couch watching movies on his big flat screen. "Would you like to see my bedroom?" He asked with enthusiasm."Uh, Josh your bedroom is your private room", she hesitated, "so what? Come on Lia", he persisted. "Oh okay fine then show me", she chuckled. His bedroom was painted ocean blue with wall pictures of animals. His bed was a king-sized neatly done with silky sheets. The floor was carpeted and the room was big and spacious. There were beautiful curtains and everything seemed in place. He was definitely a neat freak."It's beautiful Josh", she commented; "aren't you going to try the bed and see how comfy it is?” “Are you trying to seduce me Mr. Diamond?" she asked as she threw herself on his bed. "Not at all Miss Crawford unless you want me to", he smirked taking a seat next to her on the bed.

There was silence for a moment as they stared into each other’s eyes as if waiting for them to speak. He began stroking her face and playing around with her hair making her blush."You look good in my bed as if it was made for you, spend the night with me", he whispered before taking her mouth into his. This man was too much, his touch, his kisses and everything about him got her burning up, he had a serious effect on her. Kissing him felt good, feeling his hands on her made her feel like a baby wrapped in the warmth of blankets. He started kissing down her neck making her moan with pleasure.

He removed the strings of her dress from her shoulders trying to strip her but she pushed him away and got off the bed."Josh I’m sorry I can’t, I don’t know what kind of a woman you take me for but I can tell you one thing I’m not about to let you strip me and devour me that easily that soon for that matter I just met you", she protested.

"I’m sorry Liana, I respect you it’s just that you are too damn gorgeous, a man can’t help himself around a beautiful sexy woman like you", he excused himself. "I should go home to rest now I've work to get to tomorrow morning", she took off.

Liana came across Mr. Logan while on her way to her office. "Miss Crawford I hope you are enjoying it here so far", he smiled happy to have bumped into her.

"Yes, yes I am Mr. Logan, thank you", she responded and as she was about to enter her office she heard him call out for her. Ah what now? She wondered.

Turning around to face him she got rid of the annoyed look she had on her face and forced a smile on."Yes Mr. Logan", "I would like to ask you to be my business dinner date this Friday, it would look good for me to have a pretty lady in my arms", he proposed. Mr. Logan asking her of all people to be his date was a surprise to her, there were a dozen of beautiful women he could have invited from his company but he chose her. Liana was flattered but despite his reputation he wasn't the kind of man she wanted to be seen arm in arm with.

She didn't find him attractive. He wasn't the dashing debonair man with a sexy hot body and a handsome face all girls would dream of. Even with his multi-billionaire status she didn't find him attractive at all. She had always dated handsome men; her type of men description was always the same, tall handsome flat abs and strong arms. Looks were a very big deal to her in fact they were her first priority. Now here was this rich business man who clearly didn't interest her in anyway asking her to be his date.

"Mr. Logan really I feel honored that you asked me but I’m sorry I can’t be your date, you will have to ask someone else", she declined. Did he hear her correctly? He wondered for he wasn't expecting that the young lady he was gracious enough to offer a job would dare turn him down and not feel obligated to accept his proposal. He was sure she now knew he was the owner of the company so where was she getting the nerve to turn him down. Logan was infuriated but he wasn't going to let it show.

The smile on Mr. Logan’s face slowly faded away; he cleared his throat before responding to her refusal. "Miss Crawford , with all due respect I’m not asking you to be my wife, you are coming with me to this business dinner on Friday whether you like it or not, It is my mistake for making it sound like a request earlier because it’s an order!" He sneered, turned his back on her and walked away leaving her mouth wide open in astonishment.

On their way to the parking lot after work Liana quetched to her friend Cindy about Mr. Logan’s unfair command. Cindy didn't see it the way she did. "Wow he must really like you", "well I wish he didn't because I don’t like him at least not in that manner, his name or his money won’t make me change my mind about him".

"Liana Crawford! Have you lost your mind? This is Mr. Logan the owner of the multi billion dollar company that you are working for, besides that he is a good man, I have worked here long enough to know him well and remember the beauty of a man is his heart and wallet not his face or his ripped abs", she snickered."Cindy I don’t want an ugly man and have ugly children with him", she prattled."Oh my goodness you are so childish I agree Mr. Logan isn't what we call handsome but he’s not ugly either lets just say he’s in between ugly and handsome", Cindy said. Liana looked at her not believing what had just come out of her best friend’s mouth and then they both burst into laughter.
