Chapter 14Rachel’s POV. “Laura!” David, that scumbag, shouted her name and walked up to her.“Why didn’t you tell me you’d come see me in school?” David asked as he got close to us.“I told you; I guess you forgot.” Laura answered. “Let’s go.” He held her hand.“I wanted to teach this silly assbitch...”“Come on, Laura!” He shouted and dragged her out of the cafeteria.“Both of them are crazy.” Mary glared hard at them as they walked out.“That’s their cross to carry; it's none of my business.” I rolled my eyes.“I will be back, Mary.” I wanted to pee.“Alright.” She answered, and I walked out, heading to the toilet.I was done. I washed up and headed outside. I bumped into Scott.I was trying my best to avoid him.“Rachel.” He held my hand when I tried to play blind to pass him.I turned and stared at him without uttering a word.“Okay, I am sorry; I couldn’t come pick you up. Is that the reason why you are avoiding me?” He spoke. Earlier, he waved at me while we were entering the
Rachel’s pov Immediately after I got home, I went straight to my room. I changed and left for the shower. I was done shortly, put on some light clothes, and climbed back to bed.Mary and I did a video call, and we talked for a while. Most of our chats lighten up my mood.We talked about what happened today between Scott and me.“Rachel, can I ask you a question?”“Spill it out.” I answered. “Do you have feelings for Scott?”I haven’t even asked myself that question. Do I really have feelings for Scott? I shouldn’t have. I don’t think he has feelings for me. So even if I have, Maybe it’s just a waste of feelings.“I don’t think I have feelings for him, Mary.” I wasn’t quite sure yet.“Rachel I think Scott likes you; from what happened today, he really cares for you. So start having feelings, girl.”“What if he is doing that out of pity or because of how David is treating me?" I won’t really confirm that he has feelings for me.“Whatever you say, Rachel, do you think Scott and David ar
Chapter 16Rachel’s POV I opened the door and found out it was one of the servants. Scott stood there too, with the tray in his hands.“Luna calls you both to the dining room for a brief meeting.” She said that and took the dishes from Scott.“We will be there,” Scott answered.She bowed and left.“So I have no choice but to leave my room now.”“Meet me downstairs.” Scott chuckled and left my room.There is no need to change; besides, she said it’s a brief meeting.Argh, I’m not used to all of this!It’s been a while since Scott left, so I left the room too.Heading outside to the dining table, they were all seated, including David, although Luna hadn't arrived yet.I received a few answers, and one ignored me.After some minutes, Luna arrived, and we all stood and bowed for her as she sat. Then we all sat.Rachel, how are you, and how was school today?” She asked me immediately. I was quite shocked as she called my name.She gave a slim smile.“I am fine, and school was okay too.” I
David’s POV What I felt last night with her, I haven’t felt that before. I just had to hold myself back from spending a little longer with her. This morning, what she wore to school distracted me; she looked so seductive. I love Laura so much, but what I felt for her last night is something I haven’t felt ever since I have been with her. I couldn’t take my eyes off her. And I hate this feeling.I don’t like her, and I don’t like the feeling I have whenever I see her.That is why I do things that piss her off; that is why I want to make her life miserable. I want her to hate me. I want her to hate seeing me. Mother shouldn’t have brought her to the house.It was lunchtime, and we were at the cafeteria. She sat with Jack, like they were on a date or something. I have been seeing them together lately. Yesterday, they were paired as partners. And today I saw how they were acting so lovey-dovey close to my class. And now they are eating together at a table not too far from mine.Is she doi
Chapter 18Rachel’s pov“Rachel!” David snapped me out of my thoughts. Thank goodness it was all my imagination.Why this sudden imagination? How crazy. “Why are you dressed like this? What kind of game are you trying to play with me?” He shouted. I noticed how the veins in his head popped out as he was shouting.He didn’t even care if people looked at us or took pictures of us. His only concern was about how I dressed.“What are you talking about? I decided to change my wardrobe. I don’t understand what you are trying to say.” I answered him.Yes! It was actually a game I was trying to play to get you pissed.“You need to stop!” He exclaimed. He clenched his fist so tight.Doesn’t this boy ever get tired of this?“You need to stop with all this fuss you are putting on.” I rolled my eyes. Immediately, at the speed of light, he gripped my hand and pinned me to the wall.“You really should learn how to have manners, because it’s really pissing me off.” He looked really angry now.“You a
Rachel’s POV It was now morning, so I woke up and stretched. Today was not like the other weekdays. I'll have to set an alarm before I wake up. The funny thing is, I might as well wake up as soon as the alarm rings and go back to bed.But today I woke up to my satisfaction. I cannot believe it’s already been one week since I moved here. I really thought I wouldn’t make it alive until this day. I just have to keep striving until I break through.I stood up and went to the toilet to wash up. I was done, so I stepped out.Williams and I have been talking, but I really haven’t had the chance to go see them; either Luna will call me or I’ll be tired and frustrated coming back from school. And other stuff like that. David, on the other hand, wants both but to derive me of my happiness.I really want to see them, and I hope I have the chance on Sunday, which is tomorrow. I’ll go see them and spend some time with them too.I was about to step out when I barged into a maid who was about to kn
David’s POV "I’ll have to think about it, Laura; I can’t just decide on that now." I was more than surprised by what she said."You want to think about it? Okay fine." I know she got pissed, but it wasn’t compared to how shocked I was."I’m leaving now; I’ll text you later." She didn’t respond, so I left. Why would she even think of something like that in a hurry? I wasn’t expecting that from her so quickly.I left Laura’s house and arrived at mine. I met Scott and Jacob while heading in, so I went to join them in the sitting room."Hey David." Jacob called my name, and I walked to them."Where have you been?" Jacob asked, and Scott just kept looking at me."I went to Laura." I sat on one of the couches in the living room.Oh, alright," Jacob said."David, are you alright?" Jacob asked. And furrowed his eyebrows."Yeah, I’m good." I replied. "Okay." Jacob and Scott continued with what they were talking about while I sat with my own thoughts.What Laura said kept flashing back into m
David’s POV I never realized Rachel was so sexy; her fair, smooth skin and her upper body were so attractive. She noticed my appearance and covered her body. She was more like a goddess.The urge to move closer to her and touch her gripped me. I couldn’t hold on.Immediately, I moved close to her; I couldn’t resist.“What are you doing here?" She asked as she stepped backward. I didn’t respond to her, but rather kept staring at her.“I want you to leave.” She shouted, and I still played deaf ears and walked even closer to her. Immediately, she leaned against the wall. I took her hands up and leaned them against the wall. She groaned and asked what I wanted.Immediately, I was pushed to kiss her. My lips collided with her soft lips; it was something I never wanted to stop. I used my right hand to hold her hands and gripped her waist with my left hand.I kissed her soft neck as the towel got loose; my eyes beheld her flawless skin; her neck tasted like milk mixed with sugar; she tried
