Episode 9: Flying First Class

Emily had an emergency meeting with the director about her schedule with the upcoming filming, so she had to allow Nicholas to go ahead without her to the airport.

When she and Talia wrapped up all the loose ends in the contract, Emily was escorted to the airport by David just in time for her flight to Los Angeles.

Emily blew out a breath of cold air as she wrapped her jacket around her.

"Enjoy your flight, Mrs. King." David tendered with a bow.

She paused.

"Thank you, David."

It still felt weird to hear someone call her that.

Mrs. King.

There was little time left before the last call for the flight and Emily had to hurry over to her designated gate.

Her shoulders slumped with relief when she had made it in time. After checking her ticket Nicholas bought online, Emily was directed to her seat.

However, her eyebrows raised in pleasant surprise when she was shown to the First Class section of the aeroplane.

There was no doubt about it. This man surely enjoyed his money's worth.

Emily had thought the First Class Cabin would be full, however, as she walked in, she realized, apart from Nicholas, there were no other passengers.

His long legs were casually crossed whilst sitting. He wore a slim-fitting tailored suit which emphasized his broad shoulders and waist. The white shirt underneath was buttoned all the way up to the collar. He was bathed in sunlight from the window seat, but his body appeared to be shrouded in an ancient frost. The cool and calm demeanor he exuded was like that of an olden day emperor.

He reeked of power and all the physical senses she had could account for that.

As if the man sensed her observing him, he directed a gaze as deep as the ocean at her. His chilling stare seemed to melt however at the red-nosed Emily that stood before him.

Nicholas removed his coat as he lowered his guard and signalled for her to take a seat.

Emily put her luggage away and took a seat across from Nicholas, him soaking in her amazed expression.

"Why is it so empty?" She asked, referring to the first class cabin.

Nicholas leered at Emily for a minute before he put his coat across her lap and hid her exposed thighs. "I rented it out."

If she had been a cartoon character, her jaw would have touched the floor.

"A-All of it?"

"All of it."

"Why?"

Nicholas slouched his seat looking far more comfortable than he was five minutes ago.

"Weren't you the one that didn't want our relationship to be publicized?"

"I don't, b-but..."

"Despite the fact that first class is made to be more private, people still do talk about what takes place inside here as soon as the plane lands. It's better to take precautions with both you and me being renowned individuals."

Emily couldn't believe his reasoning.

"That doesn't mean you should rent out an entire first class cabin. It's such a waste of money!"
