Samuel’s phone rings and he waves at me to keep walking in through a long corridor. We are in a hotel somewhere in the city. I take a few steps in my heels and then feel my feet slide all over the floor and I lose my balance, nearly falling down. Somehow I manage to regain my balance, feeling pain in my left foot. Only now do I notice that the floor is wet. After a moment a small dark-haired woman runs towards me.

"I'm so sorry, miss. You OK now?" she rants in a very annoying squeaky voice, barely able to speak English. The colour drains from my face and anger pushes through the surface.

"You stupid, stupid girl! I could have killed myself on this floor. Where is the fucking sign to say that it’s wet?" I shout, not caring for the world that Samuel is on the phone. This immigrant could have killed me.

"Me sorry, miss," she mumbles.

"I don't care that you are sorry. I’ll make sure that you get fired for this," I roar.

"What is going on here? Poppy, calm down. You're all right, nothing happened," Samuel says, placing a hand on my back.

I feel the vein on my forehead begin throbbing dangerously fast. That bastard should be standing in my defence, not caring for this idiotic immigrant, who can barely speak any English. The woman drops her head, moving away scared and stupidly confused.

"Whatever, just take me home," I snap, probably ruining a very promising date, but who cares? I would have broken my leg and now that bastard is taking her side.

"Certainly, Poppy."

He doesn’t say anything more to me. Soon after, we get to his car outside the hotel. The atmosphere in the car is a little frosty. Samuel doesn’t look at me or my exposed legs. Who knows, maybe Fallen adore mortal immigrants? Dimitrious is going to kill me if Samuel doesn’t ask me out for a second time.

When he parks outside the house I’ve calmed down a little more and feel like an idiot. I have shown Samuel my real self. The one that doesn’t care about anyone else, only me, and I don’t think he likes it.

I hate to admit to anyone that I have done something wrong, but I have to fix this fast; otherwise, my own life is going to be on the line. Samuel is too valuable for me and for Dimitrious’s sake to lose him.

"Listen, I'm sorry about earlier on. I lost my temper with that woman," I say, not really meaning that, but it’s about making a good impression. He is interested in me, intrigued by me, now he just has to fall in love with me. He tightens his palms on the wheel.

"I like people who respect others. You have a feisty personality, but is it the same in the bedroom?"

This time I slap him gently, so he knows that he can’t get away with talking to me like that. His eyes burn with anger for a brief moment before returning to their usual expression.
