Caught Between Enemies Chapter 27 The Only Choice
Selen's POVIt's been a month and still no word from my father. Every time Lola's phone goes off anxiety builds in my chest. I'm terrified someone will call with the worst news and I will have to live knowing I wasn't there for my father in his final days. Lola is consistent with the vague updates."The doctors say he is showing some improvements, they are hopeful he will be able to be woken up soon."It's always the same line. I have it memorized like it's a verse in a song. Pierre calls and texts me often asking when I will fly to him, but he too withholds information from me. He is adamite I fly to France in order to see my father but won't disclose his condition. Still using the marriage as my only saving grace. I can't concentrate on my schoolwork and being in that building has become suffocating. Desmond has done his best to keep me sane through it all. I moved out of the guest room and into Desmond's room sleeping next to him brings me so much comfort that I crave right now. O
Caught Between Enemies Chapter 1 Back in session
"Selene!" my father called for the fourth time attempting to rush me out the door in time for school. "I'm coming, one minute!" I call back from my bedroom as I take one last look at my reflection in the mirror. Dressed in a simple school uniform, a navy blue skirt with a single white stripe an inch above the hem, white button down tshirt, and navy blue vest with the school crest embroidered in gold and silver over the left breast. paired with my white Van hightops. My long dark brown hair was pulled back into a simple ponytail, a touch of gloss on my full lips, and black eyeliner accompanied by mascara outlined my almond shaped eyes. My appearance was modest for the most part, and meant to be ordinary to blend in with my fellow peers. I exhale one last long breath staring into my turquoise eyes that stand out against my tan complexion, shaking off the nervousness of yet another first day of a new school year. I grab my backpack off the chair by my vanity and rush out of my room swi
Caught Between Enemies Chapter 2 The Beginning
Desmond Ducat, his jet black hair that begs for your fingers to run through it falling just above those sparkling sapphire eyes that perce into the depths of your soul. Full lips placed upon a perfect face with that sharp jawline and if you're lucky enough to catch a glimpse of those heart stopping dimples. Leviathan Hawthorne, his dirty blond locks flowing in luscious curly waves upon his head. His cold emerald eyes that portray no emotion under that thick set of lashes, high cheekbones and that bone structure carved by the gods themselves. The pair had every girl swooning over them not just for their stunningly good looks but for those amazing bodies as well. Both boys were built like professional athletes, despite the strict uniform dress code, there was no hiding just how defined their muscles were, threatening to tear through those thin white shirts. The only differences between the two was Desmond was taller by two inches, and leviathan had an olive skin tone where Desmond's comp
Caught Between Enemies Chapter 3 The Encounter
I pretend not to notice him coming my way, fixing my eyes solely on the paper in front of me. We have no bad blood but I can't help but feel awkward around him sense we haven't spoken a word to each other in so many years. The table shook slightly as he bumped into it before lazily sitting in the chair to my right. His familiar sent of maple and wood swirled in the air between us causing me to take an involuntary deep breath. I missed this smell, it made me feel so relaxed. Taking me away to a past memory of when my mom was still around. I discreetly cleared my throat, forcing myself back to the present time. I adjusted my body trying not to take up space on his area of the table. Desmond flipped his workbook open pressing the pages flat with his firm hands. I noticed the deep patches of purple and yellow forming upon his reddened knuckles. Flesh was busted open and on a few of his knuckles a scab had started to form. His hands balled into fists before disappearing from my view. I felt
Caught Between Enemies Chapter 4 The Game
I take my seat beside Desmond placing my supplies and water on the table before shifting to a comfortable position. Desmond seems to take no notice of my presence being next to him, wrapped up in the workbook from first period with my neon green pencil firmly in-between his fingers while he writes. I take a drink of my water before clearing my throat awkwardly. "Sorry about taking up so much room and bumping into you last period. I didn't mean to bother you." I awkwardly begin explaining, while trying to break the silence between us. "I can move over a seat if that would make you more comfortable." I offer, noticing no one has claimed the seat next to me so there's a chance it could be vacant. Desmond's hand stops writing as his body shifts in my direction. His brows knit in confusion putting pressure on the knot above his left eye that's already began to bruise and scab."You don't bother me Selene." He states. "Why would you think that?""Oh. I just.. thought because I bumped into y
Caught Between Enemies Chapter 5 The History
Fuck.was the only audible thought in my head, as Leviathan pulled the chair out and slid in next to me. All eyes were on our table, anticipation thick and heavy throughout the air. My eyes shift to Rosa who is completely turned in her seat facing us not caring if she would get scolded by the teacher. She seemed to be frozen in place with her mouth agape eyes opened so wide you'd swear they were going to fall out of her skull and roll away on the floor. I could feel all the eyes burning holes through me from all sides of the room. Although I'm sure they were not actually directed at me, I'm merely a victim of circumstance here. The entire class silently watching, waiting to see what entrainment this year will hold for them. No doubt this will be the talk of the entire school for the rest of the year. My table has just become the main focal area that every kid in the district will be glued to. I slowly look around the room and sure enough everyone has stopped what they were doing and lo
Caught Between Enemies Chapter 6 The Incident
Selene's POVI just can't shake my cranky irritable mood today. I thought my session at the gym would be enough to clear my head and start my day on the right foot. Obviously that's not the case because I've sat in this class for twenty minutes now and all I've done is stew over everything. Rosa, annoying me all morning because she wanted to have a conversation with me but refused to listen to a single word I said. Sometimes it feels like she just likes to hear herself talk and only listens to respond instead of comprehend. My dad informed me this morning he plans to add more tutoring classes to my weekend schedule, as if I don't already do enough to appease him during the week. I have no time to myself as is and he's only making it worse. Leviathan's elbow rubs up against my forearm only adding to my annoyance. I pull my arms even closer to my body even though I've already made sure to give him enough work space on the table. I flip through my workbook trying to find the page I left
Caught Between Enemies Chapter 7 The Hostility
Selene's POVI wake up in the nurses office with a massive headache, no idea how long I've been out of it. I try to sit up, my actions instantly causes me to feel dizzy and nauseous. I place my palm on my forehead trying to stop the spinning as Mrs. Oliver rushed to my side. Her small delicate hands push lightly on my shoulders requesting I lay back down."Oh, just try to relax Hun, don't get up." Her gentle voice coos as I lay back." How long have I been out? " I inquire as I try to collect my thoughts and regain memory of what happened." Not to worry it hasn't been that long." She tells me as she passes a small paper cup with some pills inside and a cup of water to me. "This will help with the nausea and pain."I take the items from her hands examining the medication before taking it. She takes the trash from my hands and desposes of it before her amber eyes look back at me. She a small woman with short blond hair and gentle eyes. Her voice is very soft spoken giving off a calming
