Chapter Nine
Jemima's POV
I couldn't hide my smile after he called me beautiful.I lifted my eyes from his chest and found him looking at me.I don't know if I will ever get used to his attractiveness.We were lost into each other's eyes until I turned my head to break the contact.It was electrifying.When we got into the room I felt like I was inside a basketball field.I thought my brother was obsessed, it seems Drake was worse.
"Welcome to my solitude your royal Highness..." He placed me down carefully.
"I thought my brother was a basketball holic but I think you are worse Drake ..."
There was a ball, jersey, shoes and some trophies and awards in a display case.The floor was green and looked like a basketball field.The wall Infront of me was a huge image showing a scene of a basketball game.Everything screamed basketball in this room.The wall arts, throw pillows, curtains,basketball goal b
Chapter TenDrake's POVI woke up, switched on the lights and turned around to check on Jemima only to find her space empty."Jemima?" I called out walking towards the door when I realised the large glass door that allows you to go to the balcony was open.I walked to the balcony and stood beside her.She was so busy on her phone that she didn't notice me."What are you doing out here so late at night?""It's so calm.I can't remember the last time I had a quiet and peaceful night..." She turned to look at me."Why are you awake?" She asked."I woke up to check up on you and you weren't there...""Don't worry Amy, I am not stupid to kill myself or throw myself over the balcony..." He chuckled and got back to her phone"I hope you are not texting Kane!" I said in a commanding tone and she just shook her head"You know he doesn't de
Chapter ElevenDrake's POVIt felt really awkward and I didn't know what to do.So I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep."You are a bad actor Drake...""Why are you up so early?" I faked a yawn."Your acting skills are so terrible...Your face muscles were so tense..." She pulled away like half of her body wasn't on top of me."Jemima my body is so sore.How do you sleep like you are in a karate class?""I forgot to tell you, I sleep so horribly.I am not the type who sleeps like statues at night""Go get ready, I am taking you somewhere...""Where?""Just go get dressed Jemima." I kissed her on the forehead and left for the bathroom.I stood under the icy cold shower water, my hands on the glass trying so hard to shake Jemima's thoughts off my mind.As every second passes by, I can't stop thinking about her."Jemima get off
Chapter TwelveJemima's POVMy eyes were stuck on the window but I was lost in thoughts.I couldn't get the scene from earlier from my head.I felt a slash on my heart when he pushed me off him and ran to the bathroom.I can bet on my life it wasn't his sister on the phone.He looked tensed and scared when I walked into his room.It was like he was doing something wrong.I didn't like what I was feeling, I have just known him for three days.What if he is dating?Apart of me tried to convince me it wasn't my business while the other part prayed so hard not to be true.My sadness was an ocean of unknowable depths.I leaned my head on the passenger's seat and closed my eyes when my phone pinged with a message.I sat upright quickly to check and it was from Vee.I leaned my head on the passenger's seat and closed my eyes when my phone pinged with a message.I sat upright quickly to
Chapter ThriteenDrake's POVI couldn't help but feel guilty.She didn't deserve all the lies I have been telling her.But at times you need to be a little selfish, I get to be myself with her and I don't think am ready to give up on that."You won Drake." I wasn't even excited to win.I know she lost intentionally to make me happy."I know you lost intentionally?""Was it that obvious?""Yeah..." I replied dryly and threw the controller on the floor."Why are you sad and stressed? Tell me maybe I can be able to help?""Trust me Jemima, it's not that serious...""I thought we are friends.""I got this Jemima.Trust me...""Why don't we drink? I feel a little tensed up too...""Are you sure you can handle a glass of wine?" I teased her and she ended up slapping my arm."Douch
Chapter FourteenDrake's POVOne moment I am looking at her and the next I am pressing my lips on hers.I grabbed her body as we kissed and I couldn't get enough of it.By each second, I wanted more.We kissed for what felt like eternity when I finally pulled back.Our breaths were rough and fast."Can we have s*x?""What?" She breathed out.I ripped her t-shirt and her eyes widened.I slipped my hands inside the ripped t-shirt and c*ressing her back before unhooking her bra."What are you doing."She stared in confusion but I didn't careI did it.I had s*x with her.I didn't care what she felt or wanted.The anger inside me was poison and Jemima was the drug to make me forget it.The passion inside me was like fire.Electrifying and intense.I slowly placed her down and put on my boxers and jeans.I opened the faucet and rinsed my face and hands as she stood there her hands on her breasts.I to
Chapter FifteenJemima's POVI was still not in terms in what had happened between Drake and I has S*x to me was an expression of love, of the bond, an intimacy that is sacred.I always promised myself that I will only have it with a man who is worth it.At least I thought Pascal was only to end up being a jerk.I am an old fashioned girl who believed s*x should always be done on the bed until today.I have never had s*x in a bathroom with legs wrapped around a man's waistJemima you are becoming naughty.There is someething about Amy that lights me up from inside.One kiss and I was intoxicated instantly.I was ready and willing to do anything he wanted.Truth be told his Arrogant bad boy attitude excited me.I didn't feel sad or guilty.I would do it again and again.He made me feel in a way that cannot be expressed with words.He made me realise that I have been starved all this time.He woke this wild part of me that I don't thin
Chapter SixteenJemima's POVI didn't attempt to wipe my tears away.All the driver could do is look at me with pitiful eyes as he handed me the packet of tissues.He was old enough to be my father and that made me feel sorry for myself.He made me miss my dad.I know he would have hugged me, the moment he saw tears in my eyes and tell me whatever I am going through shall pass.I was his little princess."Did a rich arrogant boy hurt you?"He finally asked."How did you know?" I took a piece of tissue from the packet and wiped my tears away."You are crying.You came from a building where only rich kids can afford to live in...""I don't wanna talk about it.It makes me mad.""Rich kids are very arrogant but never let them step on your self respect.I have a daughter your age, she had a rich man impregnate her and later dumped her like a piece of garbage.They think they can always use m
Chapter seventeenJemima's POVI didn't know what to feel anymore.The pain I felt would not let go.I felt that kind of hurt that cuts right back through the protective layers of maturity.I opened the faucet and rinsed my face, trying so hard to resist the tears that were pricking my eyes.How could he lie to me? I thought we were friends.I thought he trusted me.The silly thing is that when I saw him everything seemed whole, whimsical and perfect.Here I was in the changing room missing to hug and kiss him with a feeling of betrayal that sat on my guts with so much fire burning slow.His words and actions are parallel to each other.The moments we shared, were they also a lie?The untold tears he wiped from my eyes, was he faking affections? I was confused.It's like I was rubbing salt into my open wounds just thinking about everything.I wish everything was just a nightmare and when I wake up he would beside me holding m
