Chapter 31: Feels Like Home.
Wendy's POV. "Wendy!" May called, shaking me lightly but I didn't reply to her, the fear in me was too much. Thinking about different possibilities of how things can go extremely wrong made fear cloud my heart."Wendy!!" May called, shaking me violently this time and I snapped out of whatever trance I was in."Stop shaking me like that," I said weakly and slapped her hands away from my shoulders, my eyes scanning the little crowd May's shout had gathered.Great. Hope you can see this Professor George, thank you for ruining my first day on the expedition."Are you alright, Wendy?" May asked, her eyes filled with concern and I just sighed before I nodded affirmative slowly. "Then why the hell were you looking like shits? It's just our first day here, you don't have to fret, I know you're nervous but keep it cool, everything will be alright, I promise." May assured me with a smile and I just smiled, "Thank you, May, thank you all," I muttered, summoning courage as I stood up so no on

Chapter 32: Kissed.
Wendy's POV. I let go of my worries and took in a puff of fresh delicious air, "This feels good." I said with a hearty laughter."IT SURE DOES PRINCESS, IT SURE DOES." I heard a deep familiar masculine voice agreeing with me and the hair on my skin stood at attention as they realized the danger present in the garden with usLet him not be the one, let him not be, please... Oh God, please. I prayed hard in my head, hoping for what was practically impossible. Did he hear me?Did he hear everything I said? I couldn't help but ask myself but I quickly dismissed it, there was no way he would hear him, I had mumbled most of the words I said when I entered the garden. "Won't you turn around and see me, princess?" He asked and terror seeped into me, it looks like he was really one but why the fuck was he here? Was he following me around? Had he turned into such a deviant?! Summoning my courage and boldness, I took in a deep puff of fresh air before slowly turning to look at him, and as

Chapter 33: Bee Kissed.
Wendy's POV. "Hey, girl! Where have you been, I've been trying to call you but you weren't picking up, are you alright?" May asked immediately as she saw me heading towards her. To make things easier for me, there's a tracker on May's phone. I installed it because of her habit of not telling anyone where she goes and when she'll be back. It saves me and Aunt Linda lots of stress. "Hey babe, sorry, I got caught up in the scenery. How are you doing?" I asked with a weary smile and she creased her brow. "What happened to your lips?" She asked and her thumb gently caressed my swollen lower lip. I knew I had a swollen lip and May would definitely ask about it so I had cooked up a nice story to tell her, "A fly stung me, maybe a bee, I went to the garden and while admiring the flowers, I got stung." I lied and despite seeing a flicker of doubt in her eyes, she smiled and patted my shoulder,"Sorry darling, you'll be just fine. Come, let's go and makeover, it's almost time for the conf

Chapter 34: Heaps Of Questions.
Wendy's POV. He took a few strides towards me and soon I was breathing him. Gosh! How can a man smell so good? "Why are you here, Wendy?" He asked the seriousness in his voice snapping me out of the trance I was in. I took a deep breath to stabilize myself before I looked him straight in the eyes, trying hard to focus and not have any other indecent thoughts about him."Mrs. Wood asked me to bring some books to you, she said you had requested for them," I replied, my heart beating so loud that I could hear it.Wait...is that normal?"Books, alright, thank you." He muttered before he took a step away from me.It's a terrible idea to be standing in my hot professor's room, especially when he's half-naked and looking so tempting. "I never knew you could say thank you." I blurted out and I slapped myself inwardly for initiating a conversation.I don't know why I said whatever I had said but it just feels odd to leave him so quickly. I guess I wasn't used to that side of him. "There a

Chapter 35: Worried.
Wendy's POV. 'I WOULD ALWAYS BE THERE TO DESTROY ALL YOU THINK YOU HAVE BUILT AND I SHALL NEVER GET TIRED' His words kept ringing in my head continuously despite being in a big hall filled with numerous students and some set of men and women giving us lectures about our course but my mind was far off, the only thing keeping me from crying my eyes out right now was this crowded place. May chattered excitedly beside me, ignorant of the storm raging within me. "Wendy, can you believe we're part of this expedition? It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"I forced a smile and turned to look at her, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm and I attempted to feign interest. "Yeah, May, it's incredible."The speaker on the stage droned on about the significance of the expedition, but his words were drowned out by Professor George's haunting threat echoing in my mind. I felt a lump forming in my throat as I struggled to maintain composure.How's my new life falling apart because of just one man,

Chapter 36: Stanley.
Wendy's POV. "Thank you so much for everything Stan, it was a lovely moment, it felt so good," I let out with a broad smile and he nodded, returning the smile."It's great to have your company, I'm truly honored." He enunciated and I just chuckled."Honored? Are you kidding me right now?" I asked as we began to head towards the hotel.The private museum was pretty far from the hotel but I didn't mind, seeing those beautiful things was definitely worth it. I don't know how Stan did it but having access to such was truly amazing and it helped my spirit a great deal."Well, not everyone can boast of talking much with you, most guys have this thought that you're a lesbian." He divulged and I widened my eyes in shock before tilting my head to look at him. "Are you serious?!" I asked, trying hard to hold the laugh that was bubbling in my chest, it hit me differently when I heard stories about myself that amused me. "Yeah, you don't like guys, you've made that clear all the time so I gues

Chapter 37: A Nobody.
Wendy's POV. "Alright team, good luck with your various projects, remember, the company only wants the best of the best in terms of employment so, I want you to put in your all." The voice of a woman echoed throughout the big hall and we students gave her a standing ovation. She left the stage and a murmur filled the room, I was kinda happy and nervous, the project we're giving to work is kind of an easy one for me but I'm still fucking nervous because there are so many students who would come up with different ideas. In each department, only five students would be selected and I want to be among those five, I have to do everything within my power to be among them. God has given me a chance and I am gonna make use of it with everything in me. Getting a job from any of the companies would solve my financial problem in a jiffy. Getting a fat pay, a job that comes with a house and a company car... Oh c'mon, I'm gonna be hot, I'll have all I want and more, maybe I'll stop worrying ab

Chapter 38: Trouble.
Wendy's POV. "Oh well, it's pretty late, you won't find a taxi at this spot now, you need to walk for a few minutes to Main Street." The kind old lady who had attended to us in the library suggested and I gave her a grateful smile. "Thank you so much, ma'am," I muttered and nudged Anny to follow me. I had attained my reason for coming this far but it was already late at night, my time reads 10:23 P.M.I did not intend to come this far but the books I wanted weren't available in the five big libraries we had visited, we were directed here and we got it but it's so fucking late. "I'm really sorry for this, Anny." I apologized to Anny who was busy scrolling through her phone. "Um, what are you sorry for?" She asked, dropping her phone into her satchel. "For bringing you this far," I muttered with a sad smile and she just scoffed."Oh please, I followed you here on my own will, besides, you had asked me to return home but I didn't want to, so just forget the whole apologies, we'll m

Chapter 39: Rescued.
Wendy's POV. The door of the car opened and someone stepped out, straining my eyes. I tried to figure out who the person was but his face wasn't visible to my eyes. "Hello, guys." The figure said and began to head towards us, the voice sounded familiar and I was trying to figure it out in my brain but my brain wasn't cooperating."Stanley." Anny's voice immediately made my brain recall and I stared at the figure in awe. How the fuck did Stanley get here? "Who the fuck are you?" The leader of the group asked, standing proud and dangerous.Anny clung to me tighter, her fingers were scraping my skin and it hurt but I chose to ignore it. I understand how scared she must be, I was once in her position."I'm nobody you wish to know and I don't wish to know you either, how about we settle this amicably without any form of violence?" He asked and I creased my brows, wondering what Stanley was up to, Stanley wasn't the type to go violent, he's one of the calmest men in my class and the who

Chapter 40: May.
Wendy's POV. "Just two more days until submission girl, I'm so excited and nervous at the same time," Anny said excitedly and I looked at her with a smile, she was excited about the whole project and I was too. I've been working on mine, seeking help from lecturers and professors... Well, except for Professor George, I haven't seen him for the last two days and I dare not call or ask about him. Things have been going smoothly in the expedition, we have lots of seminars and everything has been calm. Just as May had predicted, not all students were interested in the program, some only came here for the fun of it and they're having it to the fullest, the management wasn't saying anything about it, we're adults after all, we're responsible for our own decisions. "Hey baby, how are you doing?" I heard May's excited voice and I looked away from my pad to look at her; she was dressed in volleyball shorts and an armless top, "You're looking hot May." Anny complimented her and I supported
