Amelia POV
Immediately the professor left the lecture room, I quickly arranged my book materials and kept them inside my bag. Soon, I rose to my feet and turned on my heels, hurrying out of the room. I had barely taken two steps out of the lecture room when a familiar voice began to call out my name, I retreated my pace then turned my head to see Jake. “Oh, Jake” I called, feeling so uneasy as I couldn't help but dart my eyes around every corner. “What's it this time again, Amelia? Since I've known you, you're always in a hurry” Jake bemoaned softly, looking at my face tenderly. This is how I've always been since my last encounter with Callie's boyfriend. I evacuate the school premises as soon as I finished receiving lectures. And thank goodness, I haven't seen him. And Jake, I just met him recently, we bumped into each other and since then, he'd been attempting to get close. “It's nothing Jake, I just need to hurry home. I have a guest” I rushed my words in a breath, and without waiting for his further words, I scampered off. Praying inwardly not to meet him or someone who looks like him. “Amelia, wait!” Said Jake behind me, but I didn't stop. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me.
I got to the premises when a strong hand suddenly pulled my hand from behind, fear gripped me as I gasped loudly. The person hauled me into his chest then I shut my eyes tightly, struggling to break his embrace. “Let go of me, you jerk!” I cried out hysterically, then I heard the person chuckle. “What exactly are you afraid of, Amelia?” Hearing this, I quickly registered the person's voice and of course, the voice wasn't his. I flung my eyes open to behold Jake, he had a cheeky smile on his face. I quickly pulled out of his grip, I couldn't help the little disappointment which dash through my heart. “What are you doing, Jake? I told you I'm in a hurry” He moved a step closer, “What are you hiding, Amelia? Tell me, I may be of help.” I looked into his eyes, he was a tall guy with attractive features but not comparable to jerk, though. Darn it, I've thought of him twice just now. Why do I have to keep thinking of the bad guy and to top it off, he's my sister's boyfriend. “Nothing, nothing at all. I'll be on my way now” I readjusted my shoulder bag and moved a step away, but then he grabbed my wrist again. This time, I had lost my temper and was ready to fly into a rage, “Let go of her hand” His cold tone interrupted what I wanted to say. I tilted my head, following the source of his voice. And there he was, standing a few meters from us, his brows were pressed to a deep frown, giving off the impression of annoyance. I shuddered immediately as I jumped and hide behind Jake. Good Lord!
“Is he the reason you've been rushing home?” Jake questioned, staring at me over his shoulder. I just stared at the bad guy as I couldn't find a reply to Jake's question. “Come here” He ordered, putting his hands in his trouser pocket. I shook my head curtly, tugging to Jake's polo. “Don't worry, I'm here” Jake assured, but I wasn't convinced. He began to approach us, a horrifying coldness was written all over his grave face. He stopped right in front of Jake, “Move away” He ordered in a soft yet husky voice. Jake scoffed raising his head to look at him, he was much more than Jake. “Hey Desmond, I've heard countless things about you. I heard you're a bully but don't ever think you can bully me, I'm different” Jake said confidently, equally glaring back at him. “Since you've heard a lot about me buddy, so you should know I hate to repeat myself,” The bad guy said in a frigid tone causing me to shudder the more behind Jake. What on earth did Callie recognize in this man? He's a bastard. “Move away now buddy, I'm in a good mood. I wouldn't like to hurt your ugly face” His tone was so cold as he said these words. I looked from Jake's face to his, the probability that the bad guy was going to harm Jake was lofty. So to avoid Jake getting hurt, I quickly stepped forward. With my heart in my mouth, “I'm the one who offended you, so you should face me and leave him out of this” I told him harshly then his thin lips gradually curled up in a mischievous smile. “You care for your friend, don't you?” I just glared at him, wishing I could just jump up and slap him in the face and directly send him away. “Come with me now” He ordered then spun around. “To where?” I asked him immediately, he tilted his head in my direction, “What else? To serve your punishment of course” I felt my heart shiver with fear as soon as he said that. To serve my punishment?
I gulped my nervousness then spoke up again, “I'm not going anywhere with you and if there's any punishment you would like me to serve, I'll serve it right at this spot” I told him obstinately, but my heart wasn't as calm as it seemed. “What punishment are you talking about, Amelia? You still don't get it, even if you don't offend him, he will always find a way to bully you” Jake explained beside me, I looked at his face and opened my mouth to ask why was it like that, but his voice interrupted me. “Let's go now” My gaze traveled back to his immaculate yet rigid face. “He's not going anywhere with you, Desmond” Jake told him pointedly then grabbed my wrist at once and made to turn away. Suddenly, Jake fell onto the floor with a heavy thud. I raised my head and discovered he was the one, his fist was still balled. I quickly squatted and discerned the blood oozing from his nose, my eyes widened in disbelief. “Jake, blood!” I exclaimed in shock, Jake touched his nose and was also panicked to see the bloodstains on his fingers. I flew into a fit of rage as I stood up and reached out in an attempt to punch his chest, but he grasped my wrist with his palm and confined my movement. He turned around and began to pull me along with him. All this time, I was struggling to break free from his grip, but he held my wrist tighter. “You animal, let go of me now, otherwise I'll report you” I cried out hysterically, smacking his hand, but he didn't budge neither did he stop his movement. I looked behind me and saw that Jake was still in that same spot, nursing his nose. My eyes tinged with a thin layer of tears, I'm sorry, Jake. “Let go of me now, you bastard. Where on earth are you taking me?”
Momentarily, he shoved me into a room. I impatiently darted my eyes at every opening and observed that it was a sports room with a lot of athletic equipment inside it. “Why have you brought me here, you lunatic!” I cussed, fixing my wet eyes on him. “It would be best for you if you could keep your voice down” His voice wasn't harsh this time it wasn't intriguing either. I stared at his aloof face, unable to find a with to answer back. “Now back to the reason I've brought you here,” He began, still clutching my fist while I fought silently to break free. “We're both aware of what you did to me, but do you know how many days it takes for me to repossess my member?” He spoke in a soft but hoarse voice, looking down into my eyes. My heart missed one bit, did I hurt him that bad? I was beginning to feel compassion toward him but was quick to regain my senses, “You deserve every bit of it, you jerk!” I snarled fiercely, looking at him gloomily. He smiled in a dignified way, “I've always found you adorable since the first day I set my eyes on you” One of his hand cruised all the way down to my waist. I stiffened as his face approached me little by little, and I could see his sharp eyes and eyebrows clearly as well as feel his breathing, “What are you doing?” I clenched my teeth, but my voice fell to a whisper. “Since you're the first female I found adorable, so I'm willing to let this go only on one condition” My mind had totally gone blank, I forced myself to react to our intimacy, but I couldn't. I slowly gulped, “What condition?” I asked in an extremely low voice, his breathing was causing me to shiver all over as if a torrent of electricity had pierced through my skin. “Kiss me” My eyes dilated in incredulity one time. What?
