Chapter 6: Shopping Trouble

The next day...

It was Saturday and a day to drain Marcus's bank account or even put a dent it atleast since in the novel it is said to be in 10 digits.

It was the day of shopping. He chose a white, off-the-shoulder blouse with delicate ruffles that softly framed his B-cup chest and exposed his collarbones, giving him a gentle, alluring look. The blouse tapered at the waist, accentuating his thin midsection and drawing attention to the inverted triangle shape of his body. He paired it with a high-waisted, pleated skirt in a soft pastel blue that flowed just above his knees, swaying slightly with each step and complementing his long, lean legs. The skirt cinched at the waist, highlighting his slender figure while maintaining a graceful, feminine silhouette.

For shoes, he chose a pair of simple, white ballet flats that added a touch of sweetness without being too bold. He finished the look with a thin silver anklet and a soft pink ribbon tied in his brunette hair, just below shoulder length.

Sarah (Demetri) took a mirror selfie and sent it to Marcus with the text "You ready to go? And thank you for putting Jonathan on the right track."

Marcus received the picture, his breath hitched as he saw it. His heart skipped a beat, he was not expecting a picture this early in the day. He felt butterflies in his chest just seeing her beauty, and the innocent and gentle look she had, with her hair tied with a pink ribbon.

He quickly replied, "Yeah I am ready!" He typed and added to himself, "Wow she looks amazing...wait why the text about Jonathan...."

He quickly shook his head dismissing the question as he got dressed in a blue shirt and white trousers and went to go pick her up.

"Pick me up in your Porsche Cayman." Demetri texted him.

Marcus chuckled seeing the text and typed "I will pick you up on my Porsche cayman in about 10 mins." He had a soft smile on his face.

He drove the Porsche and parked nearby her, sending her another text "I am outside."

"Okay." Sarah text as he locked the door and went down as he saw the car getting in.

"Let's go, I have to make sure that I make you go broke." Sarah teased him using his index finger traced on his chest.

He felt a jolt of electricity wherever her finger trailed, and couldn't help but smile at her teasing. He put his hands on the wheel and started driving, feeling excited to buy gifts for her. He turned to look at her and said, "You look beautiful today." With a tone of adoration in his voice. He felt happy and drawn towards her.

Sarah put his seatbelt on. "Only today? So I looked decent at best other times?" Sarah decided to tease him.

Marcus laughed and said, "Of course you look beautiful always, today you look stunning." His face flushing slightly red as he spoke. His eyes not leaving the road as he drove, he felt nervous having her near and wanted to keep his attention on the road. Hearing her voice made his mind and heart race, she was so alluring, without even trying.

"Also I heard some rumors about you talking with three girls in a flirtous manner? I guess you really want a harem?" Sarah said with a smile and glanced at him

"Ah..." Marcus blushed in embarrassment, feeling caught. He thought she wouldn't hear about it. He replied, "I can explain..." Flustered, he continued, "I'm not interested in those girls. But they approach me, it's just how girls act around me." He said in an earnest tone.

While driving, in the corner of his eye, he was stealing glances at her and her beauty. He had an almost lovestruck expression watching the way the light hit her features.

"And if we were to see them in the mall? Would you act like we are nothing and go with them or try and explain things?" Sarah asked chuckling as the dress fluttered a bit showing the white stocking he was wearing.

Marcus felt he was trapped by her question and felt anxious, he knew the answer would upset her so he avoided answering. While he was focused on the question, he caught a glimpse of her stockings, feeling his face heat up, looking at her smooth and soft skin. He wished that he could get closer to her. He couldn't take his eyes off of her legs and felt like he was in a trance for a moment.

He snapped out of it, feeling guilty for looking while driving, his face felt hot and his heartbeat faster with how close she was.

"What a perv getting excited about seeing my thighs. I'll give you kiss if you that makes you feel better." Sarah said non chalantly and kissed his on the cheek when we had stopped at the traffic light.

"Were you expecting on the lips? Sorry lover boy but you have to woo me properly to get that." Sarah scoffed.

As she kissed his cheek, he felt a spark of electricity and wanted to pull her in and hug her. Feeling flustered, he looked at her with a mixture of a pout and an annoyed expression. He wanted to comment about how she's a tease but didn't want to say something that would make things worse.

He sighed feeling slightly defeated as her words were accurate. He knew the kiss was just to tease him and he wanted more, so he said, "How do I woo you then, princess?" Looking at her, his gaze lingering on her soft lips.

"That's for you to know. Marcus you have been with many women and still can't make me fall for you?" Sarah teased him.

Marcus pouted in annoyance that he hadn't made her fall for him yet, despite being used to charm girls and having a list of exes. Somehow, she was the only one who didn't fall for him easily, and it was frustrating his competitive side.

He responded, "It's harder than I expected. You're so difficult to woo, you tease. What must I do?"

"Nope you just need to try and figure it my pookie bear." Sarah said caressing his head as he parked the car in the parking lot and we got the car.

As she caressed his head with her soft small hand, he felt his heart race. He was amazed at how she so casually used the term of endearment and her teasing tone was so effortless.

He got out of the car and opened the door of the passenger seat. He held out his hand to help her, trying to impress her while feeling a mix of embarrassment and the butterflies in his stomach due to the closeness.

"Thank you Marcus." Sarah says with a smile.

"Is this place also where you get your clothes tailor made?" Sarah asked as they rode the elevator.

"No problem." Marcus felt his heart beating faster as she smiled at him. She was so effortlessly beautiful and endearing.

Marcus replied as they stepped out of the elevator, "Yes, I get my clothes tailor made here. It has good reviews."

As they walked towards the clothing store, he looked around and saw many men glancing at her, his heart was racing as jealousy grew in him seeing people look at her beauty.

As we get off on the 5th floor as Marcus leads the way.

As they walked down the hallways, they reached the 5th floor, known best for clothing and other high-end items.

The hallways had various high-end stores selling luxury items, with beautiful mannequins displaying the latest fashions. Each store displayed luxurious fashion items, attracting customers with their designer labels and stylish displays.

It was a bit crowded and as they walked some men had their eyes drawn to Sarah and looked at her with admiration or jealousy.

Marcus noticed the attention and felt slightly jealous, the sight of other males looking at her causing a hint of possessiveness in him.

"Are nearly at the tailor?" Sarah says pouting.

Marcus, noticing her pout, couldn't help but feel an urge to kiss her cute little lips.

He laughed, feeling embarrassed with his inner thoughts and said, "Almost there, you're so impatient."

As they walked through the hallway, passing various stores, another guy checked her out and that's when Marcus felt his annoyance rise seeing other men look her up and down with an interested look in their eyes.

As we had made to the shop "Elegance Tailor".

We entered the tailor shop, Marcus's heart was beating fast as his mind kept showing him jealous images of guys checking her out, but he tried to push those aside as he needed to focus.

The shop was spacious and elegant, with a calm atmosphere and warm lighting that highlighted the luxurious clothes. The walls were painted in a warm, neutral tone, and mirrors were strategically placed throughout the space.

The clothes were organized by type, and customers could request a fitting if needed. Overall, the boutique exuded an air of sophistication and style.

"I want many different types of style of clothes that would fit for the different season all in all other would 36 or so sets of clothes." Sarah said with a smile and gave his measurements that he took yesterday.

Marcus nodded and informed the staff about the request with a smile, "We need around 30-36 outfits. All types of seasonal styles to fit her measurements."

The staff politely acknowledged and asked, "How will the payment be made?"

Marcus, feeling slightly embarrassed, realising he forgot to ask about the budget.

"Card." Sarah extended his hand as Marcus handed his card.

As she extended her hand, he felt a slight panic thinking about his own finances.

He handed her his card and hoped his limit was sufficient for her shopping spree.

Marcus was always accustomed to buying luxuries but 36 outfits could be quite pricey, he just hoped his card limit could handle it without issue.

"Get them delivered to this address when they are made. Thank you." Sarah said giving the address to his apartment.
