Richard's point of view... It was the weekend already and that damn party was today which I no interested to attend. I mean what the hell am I going to do with those old farties and those little ones? No one is a good match for me, not at least to talk. And about Miss Olivia and the other ladies in the school, they are ready to jump into my pants each time. I am just tired of them. Really...! I miss those days in New York when I spent sleepless nights enjoying the best pubs and clubs with my friends. Here in this town, I couldn't even find a better wine let alone a pub or a club. I am getting bored...! I walked over to the calendar and marked the days I had spent here in this place. Feeling proud of myself that I had been enduring this for two weeks. Wetting my hair slightly, I shoved them back when I pushed my hands in my pocket to bring out my phone, to call Liam. I don't want to be alone. I can call him to come over. He was my roommate for two years when we lived in New York
Juliette's point of view... "Hey gorgeous, I am here to pick my partner"My whole self stirred for once. Just imagine, that handsome face and luring body and now buttered up like a Greek God was here to ask me to be his mate. Am I just imagining things or did he really come to my house to pick me up? "Y... You...I..." I stuttered fetching for words to express my shock but it wasn't needed anymore as I heard Mom's words."What happened dear? Isn't Scarlett here yet?" she walked a bit towards and peeked at the opened door, "Oh, Richard is here...!" She wasn't surprised at all, instead, she turned around calling Anna to hurry up. "Anna, Richard is here, you are late...!"Aahh...! Something broke inside me and I clenched my fist on my dress. No, I shouldn't feel bad...! I shouldn't feel bad...! I repeated it a hundred times in my mind. How could I think about that kind of possibility? He was here for Anna, not for me...! How could I even imagine that thing?A chuckle left my m
Juliette's point of view... "Who is number Six, here?" I heard a dude's voice echoing through my surroundings and I literally wanted to sneak inside the ground, not to be found by anyone. "Six...! I think it was someone here...!" another one helped him out and pointed in my direction. Shit man...! There is no escape...! Taking a long breath, I was about to turn around to surrender to whoever was my dance date for the day but suddenly I felt someone grab my hand from beside me. I jerked pulling my hand back immediately, it was dark, and though the disco lights were flashing, it wasn't enough to see their faces clearly and not to tell, those weird masks that everyone was wearing were way out of reach even to guess. I tried to identify the one who grabbed my hand but before I could strain myself, Scarlett let out a whisper, "Don't move Juli, it's me" I released the air stuck inside my lungs, but she added something that made my mind stir for once. "Don't you dare turn around, it'
Richard's point of view... "Let me drop you" I offered grabbing her hand. Her eyebrows creased showing her indifference. I clearly know that I must not get involved in thd matters of these youngsters but I am helpless. I don't know why I had been restless because of this little girl. I smack my thoughts away every time but end up staring at that girl again. What the hell is wrong with me? Did she bewitch me? It was clearly written on his face that the boy had other intentions for this stupid girl and his girlfriend was cooking up plans to hurt her yet she wanted to go with him. Unbelievable...! I wanted to ignore her so badly, thinking that I don't give her a damn but...! Ugh...! "We can drop you" I mumbled again before she brushed my hand off. I clenched my fist unknowingly as the jaws almost gritted my teeth to half. I do have a lot of patience, but once getting angry, I am obviously not good at holding my anger back. I tried my level best to control myself but she was ge
Juliette's point of view... His hands were too warm to ignore, sliding down my waist. Despite the dress covering it, I felt like my skin was burning at every inch that he touched. I was tender to his touch as if submitting to him though reluctant. I don't have any idea if it was because he was drunk or anything else but he was burning inside out. I can sense his warm breath on my face and neck when he exhaled closer to me. That was driving me crazy. I tilted my head looking at others, just not to get carried away. I have heard from other girls that they have the urge to kiss someone before them uncontrollably sometimes, I used to think they were mad to say so but...! I understand them now because I wanted to taste his lips right now. Was that wine he drank, sweet? Though I never felt it before, not for anyone, my skin is itching so much. I want to press my lips on his. Is that normal or am I sick? His eyes had been staring at me without a blink, sometimes at my cheeks and somet
Juliette's point of view... My heart skipped a beat whenever Richard whisked me away and pulled me back with a jerk, his hands claiming my waist like he possessed and the crazy part was, our faces were so close that his breath played a tingling sensation on mine. I had been foreseeing the next round of the game. Paper dance. Just the thought of dancing with his body attached to me gave me butterflies in my stomach. "But...wait...! You can't get carried away. Though he is drunk, you can't do anything beyond your limitations. He is forbidden, Juliette, he is not meant for you. It's just a dance" I had been repeating these words in my mind continuously, more than a hundred times already. Still, I annoyingly smiled when I saw him staring at me. It was magical. Though for him it was merely a simple dance, for me it was a heavenly experience. I was flying in the extreme cloud when soon a disaster happened. Mr. Richard swirled me as a beat of music demanded. It wasn't just me alone, a
Juliette's point of view... The dance wrapped up with a shocking end that we won the competition but still, Mr. Richard had no intention of leaving my thighs. His hands still spread on my thighs as if I belonged to him. "Mr. Richard let me down" I gritted as it felt embarrassing for me. Everyone was staring at us with their piercing gazes. I was hugging him around his shoulders and my legs wrapped around his waist. It was clearly an uncomfortable position to be at everyone's attention. Though we won, this thing was more embarrassing than losing the competition. Even when the sounds of clapping subsided, he didn't put me down but rather he walked out so fast with his long legs avoiding the focus light before the main lights were switched on.Confused I wondered if he just got carried away. I mean, he is drunk and I think, he lost his mind completely. That dance could have aroused any man and he might be still on that kind of thing. "Mr. Richard... Hold on your horses...!" I yelle
Author's point of view... "She is mine" Erick demanded and the land beneath Juliette's foot slid away. All of her mind was filled only with one thing, fear. A fear that she could never explain. A fear that slowly started inside her heart and traveled all across her body. Juliette's chain of thoughts was broken up by the sound of a scream as Nathan was pushed to the ground. "No stop...!" Juliette yelled getting down from the car. Erick and his men were hitting him ruthlessly. A man grabbed Scarlett's face and instructed her to stop screaming. He pulled her out without mercy and dragged her to one of the bikes parked in the middle of the road. "Wait, where exactly are you going to take her?" Juliette asked running behind them but was stopped by another one of them.The man spat back at her with a brusque response, "Of course, to enjoy...""No please leave us?" Scarlett pleaded with trepidation, tears cascaded down her eyes without stopping.The man snarled in response, "You better
