Chapter 66
Lea’s point of view:
Monday came faster than I expected.
The girls had dropped by yesterday to choose my clothes for my first day at St-Xavier’s. They made it such a big deal that I felt even sicker to my stomach. I just wanted the ground to open up and swallow me up.
The feeling to disappear overpowered any other rational thoughts that were running though my mind. As if things could not get any worse, I had felt nauseous and my head had started aching.
Ryder had saved me out of my misery. He prepared dinner so the moment he told the girls that dinner was ready, they had rushed downstairs. They were telling me how starved they were. Shelly had spent the entire day with Max at the hospital while Aubrey helped her mom with some stuffs around her garden.
This morning though, I wore my black sweater over the top the girls had chosen. The sweater was not part of the outfit but my fingers itched to grab it and wear it. The ho

Ryder’s fists balled at his sides, the veins in his arms protruding and throbbing from the tension that soon enveloped the hallway.I glanced down at myself as I rubbed my arms. No matter how much I rubbed my arms though, the feeling of his hands on my skin won’t go away.Why did I take off my sweater? I should have never taken it off.I felt exposed.Right when I was trying to fit in, someone just had to spoil my efforts.The girls spoke to me earlier in one of the classes that we had together. They told me to try and be myself and that people here might not be like in my previous high school. They advised me not to pay any attention to the stares. That kind of behavior was normal faced to new students.When I felt hands touch me and pull me off the lockers, I jerked away from them. I hastily glanced up while trying to get away but the hands kept invading my personal space. It was Aubrey and Shelly but even then, I made an escap

Ryder’s point of view:A cold shiver travelled down my spine when I felt Lea’s breath on my neck. Fuck! She was doing something to me for sure.The moment I saw Brian brutally pushing her into the lockers, I had lost it. The need to protect her grew intense when Brian still refused to admit that he was trying to hurt her.That asshole had it coming his way.I stood up when I saw the principal making his way towards us. He seemed quite furious. Dang it! The girls helped Lea get up.She had stopped crying but remnants of dried up tears were apparent on her cheeks.They helped her put on her sweater.“Wyatt, Reeves, McCartney, in my office now!” The principal snapped while he stared at us coldly.I clenched my jaw as I looked sideways.I glanced down at Brian when I heard him grunting in pain. He was trying to get up.You fucking deserved it, bastard! I thought.A guy f

Lea’s point of view:A week had passed by pretty smoothly. No one bothered me after that incident back on my first day at St-Xavier’s.Ryder was quite protective after that day. He wouldn’t leave my side. I knew that I was under his protection until his elder brother returns back but he was not being just protective. It felt like he was being too protective almost.I was thankful to him for arriving right on time. I did not know what Brian’s intention was but if he was trying to hurt me, he did. There were bruises on my arms and back but they were fading away. As if I did not have enough scars on my body, I just had to receive some more.When I do think about Ryder's protective nature though, maybe he was just trying to do his job. I shook my head to get rid of the confusing thoughts that started pilling in my mind. He was simply doing his job. I insisted when my heart started reacting weirdly.There was not

Lea’s point of view:Ryder’s brother, Michael, returned back on Friday.He was a young man in his late twenties. Even if I was not already aware of them being brothers, the moment I saw Michael, I would have known he was Ryder’s elder brother.He was an older version of Ryder. Although the ten years gap between them, they were both equally muscular and have the same kind of attitude which often led to conflicts between their different ways of approaching a particular subject.Unlike Ryder, Michael had gray eyes which accentuated his alluring personality. I bet he got a lot of women chasing after him just like his little brother.Ryder was always being surrounded by girls at school during lunch time. There was not a moment where he was seen walking alone in the hallways. Anyway, I got rid of that thought before it could have messed with my thoughts about Ryder.Michael immediately suggested that I should pro

Ryder waved at me when he saw me looking at him. I waved back with a small smile.He nodded while retreating backwards. He had that cold scary look on his face that I bet was stopping any girl from approaching him right now.“Let’s go talk to that man of yours. He’s been waiting for us to get out for a while now. He seems to be in a bad mood. ” Aubrey said teasingly before frowning while her eyes shifted over to Ryder’s face.“He’s not my man.” I exclaimed before shaking my head at her.“That’s all you heard.” She shook her head at me before leaning back to get her school bag from the back seat.I shrugged.“He got you a puppy, Lea! Can you believe that? He is the Ryder Wyatt. He has never done anything so sweet for just anyone. Even Michael sometimes craves for his little brother’s attention.” She rolled her eyes at me.My heart skipped a beat. As muc

Lea’s point of view:I felt stares on me the moment I walked inside the school cafeteria for lunch. Instead of glancing down, I remembered the conversation I had with Aubrey this morning. I tried my best to hold my head up high in confidence.Just keep calm, Lea! You can do this. I encouraged myself before walking over to the guys.They would not let me sit alone by myself.I have been having lunch with them since last Tuesday.Aubrey waved at me when she saw me walking over to their table.I smiled slightly when I reached their table before sitting down beside Ryder. Last Tuesday, the girls made me sit between them just so they could speak to me.Shelly would not stop rambling about Max while Aubrey complained about some lanky guy being her biology lab partner. The guy almost caused two flasks to explode from mixing two completely incompatible fluids without even consulting the biology professor. Aubrey looked

Lea’s point of view:Connor’s eyes trailed over the group of girls passing by our lunch table.They were scantily dressed as if they were feeling hot or trying to be hot. It was not that hot today though, so, I believe they were aiming at trying to look sexy. It was definitely working on Connor whose eyes trailed from their faces to their legs before trailing back up.I grimaced when I caught one of the girls’ boobs almost falling out of her bra like top. It was too tight. It felt like the top was being forced to hold her boobs inside. She was beautiful and had a model like body which seemed nicely maintained. I did not get why she would use her body to attract guys.Anyway, it was none of my business.Connor smirked when one of the girls winked at him teasingly before heading over to the table closest to ours. The moment she sat down, she immediately said something to her friends.They did not look as frie

They considered me one of their own and welcomed me with so much love that I couldn’t let anything bad happen to them. If I was right in my calculations, I will hate myself if Cassandra managed to do something bad to them. I will have to get to the root of her thoughts and what led her into believing that she could harm the guys. It was high time that I step out of the cocoon I had woven around me as a protective shield. It couldn’t stop people from bullying me and my father from beating me as much as I had used it to retain myself within it. I was under the pretense that if I stayed away from other people, they would leave me alone but I was proven wrong all these years. They continued to crush me under their feet and stripped me of my self-worth. Layer by layer until there was nothing left of my true self. I became someone I could no longer recognize. If I was to step out of my misery, I would start with unraveling Cassandra’s intention towards the guys to
