CHAPTER 9

I open my eyes and groan due to the immense pain in my head. I can’t recall what happened to me, “all I recall is being at a certain party”, I think as I look around the house. It does not look like my room; I think starting to panic. “Where the hell am I?’’

I look around the neat, well-organized room and sign in relief. At least I recognize the model of the room, I am in the school’s hostel. That’s something good right?

My uncle couldn’t have kidnapped me and taken me hostage in the school hostel. Whose room is it anyway? Thought after thought invades my mind as I try to recall what happened last night.

Nothing.

The opening of the door startles me from my wandering thoughts. I watch as Trevor walks through, towards me, making me step back with each step he takes.

“Why am I here Trevor.’’ I spit, faking contempt. He narrows his eyes at my tone finally standing before me.

“The least you could do is thank me for saving your ass yesterday.” He spits with equal venom in his voice.

“You didn’t answer my question.” I sign in annoyance.

“You are here because I am incapable of leaving you” he answers with the infamous smirk on his face.

Whoa whoa! Hold up boy; That felt like déjà vu, oh! It’s not. “Did you just quote Fifty Shades of Grey?” I ask narrowing my eyes.

He narrows his in retaliation, “I am not a sadist Anna, though I wouldn’t mind tying you up and fucking you senseless for that stunt you pulled yesterday. What were you trying to do, seduce me?” By now my face is so flushed I can’t hide my blush. “Well, you managed to attract a real pervert who tried to rape you but thanks to me, your Knight,” he wiggles with eyebrows suggestively, “you are here, safe, with me, “He states, amusement clearly evident in his voice.

He thinks that guy wanted to rape me, how can I tell him that my uncle is the monster behind all of this. “You can’t! You promised you won’t get emotionally involved with this sex god,” my subconscious warns. I’ll let him think whatever he wants, for his own sake. I won’t let him get involved in my mess, It’s too dangerous for him.

Ptf! Who am I kidding, he is probably more dangerous than the mess itself. Nevertheless, I won’t let him know about my truth.

“Penny for your thoughts baby.” He disrupts my thoughts. “Huh?” I enquire finally coming back to the current situation. “What are you thinking about Anna,” he asks, frustration clearly evident on his face.

“I am going back to my room,” I input walking towards the door.

“You’ll walk back to your room in that?” He stops me before I reach the door. I look at the clothing I am currently wearing and shudder in horror. I am in a not-so-familiar, white t-shirt that reaches my thighs and nothing underneath it, the shape of my body is clearly visible.

“What the fuck happened to my clothes Trevor!” I ask in horror. He chuckles in amusement and points at the pile of clothes on the chair beside the bed. I look toward them as its meaning registers in my slow mind,

“Did you fucking change my clothes, Trevor!’’ I seem to be cursing a lot since I knew about him, My mom would have already smacked me multiple times already.

I note to myself, ‘call her once you get a hold of your phone.’

About the phone, I hurriedly walk towards my pile of clothes and rummage through them looking for my phone. Nothing.

“Did you see my phone in the back pocket of my trousers Trevor? ”I ask, searching frantically. He doesn’t answer me making me look at him and guess what. He is freaking taking pictures of me half bent in front of the chair. “Trevor!”

Note to self,” ‘stop mentioning his name all the damn time.’

I speed walk towards him and snatch the phone from him, I start going through my gallery while deleting the pictures he has just taken of me but what I see involuntarily pastes a smile on my face. Pictures of me sleeping, they are so cute I can’t stop looking at them.

“Were you watching me sleep, Trevor?” I pinch his cheeks cooing at how adorable he was. “This is not fucking Twilight.” He grumbles under his breath but I quickly catch on to what he is saying. “Come on, you have to admit it’s adorable how you watched me sleep,” I continue teasing him, much to his annoyance. “It’s not!” he retorts. “Whatever helps you sleep at night boy,” I tease wiggling my eyebrows as I try walking towards the door once again.

I am stopped by a harsh tag on my arm. “I’ll not let you walk to your room wearing that. There are too many perverts out there.”

“Seriously, are you jealous they’ll get a glimpse of what you saw yesterday while undressing me?” I ask in a husky voice as I walk towards him till there is no more space between us and I am tilting my head up towards his face to gauge his reaction. His eyes darken at my statement and I am suddenly pinned to the wall with hands above my head. “What are you doing to me Anna,” his voice is low and husky. That voice quickly breaks my resolve not to get involved in his roller-coaster of emotions just as fast as I built it up.

“I can’t stay away from you Anna.”
