Zendaya's eyes slowly fluttered open, and she found herself staring at an unfamiliar ceiling which looked strangely familiar. ‘What?!’ She mumbled in confusion as she sat up. When she looked around, she realized that the room looked like the one in Jayden’s mansion. As soon as that thought came to her head, she realized that she didn't remember getting home after falling asleep. Looking down, she saw that she was still in the same dress from the party.“Jayden!” She yelled in anger as she got out of the bed and stepped out of the room.When she was out, she was met by a helper who was cleaning a vase. “Where's Jayden?” She inquired. “In his room, ma’am” the helper answered and Zendaya immediately headed there. How dare he bring her back to his mansion, especially after what had happened last time. Upon getting there, she didn't bother knocking and she barged in. “Jayden, you…” she paused as she was met with a half-naked Jayden who had just stepped out of the shower.“Put some clot

Either Matthew was dumb, or he was desperate to tell her such a thing. Shaking her head, she clutched her stomach when it growled angrily, and she was reminded of the fact that she had not eaten anything since last night.Eating outside was something she never did as she had fears of being poisoned as it had happened before. Without wasting time, she headed out of her room and headed downstairs so she could eat something.At least, if he was going to trap her there, the least she could do was eat. “Good morning, ma’am, should I serve the food,” a helper stepped forward and Zendaya shook her head.“Don’t worry, I’ll do it myself, you can go,” she dismissed and as soon as she was alone, her eyes widened in shock when she saw that all of her favourite dishes. Was Jayden behind this, or was it a coincidence. No, it couldn’t be the former, as Jayden didn't know her favourite foods. “Hmm,” she shrugged casually. Either way, she was going to eat, and that was what she proceeded to do.“Isn’

“Don't you dare,” Jayden hissed in annoyance just as his mother let go of his ear. “Watch me,” she stated, and he took one step just so he could stop her from doing so. However, his mother stopped him from doing so. “Go drop her home,” Jasmine instructed Jayden. “I'll ask the driver to drop her off,” Jayden told his mother. “No, you are,” Jasmine put her foot down and Jayden sighed as he walked out to grab his car key. “Don't hesitate to call me if he troubles you,” Jasmine told Zendaya, who nodded and left. She heaved a sigh of relief as she did due to the fact that Jasmine didn’t ask how she came to be in her son’s house. “You’re going to pay for that,” Jayden told her when they got into the car. “Don’t you dare blame me for what happened. I asked you multiple times to drop me off, and you refused,” Zendaya retorted as she buckled her seatbelt. Typical Jayde, blame her for when he got into trouble due to one of her mistakes. “Make sure it’s strapped in properly because you

“Didn’t you sleep?” Zendaya heard the makeup artist ask her as she yawned for the umpteenth time. She was currently getting ready for the shoot she had and she wanted nothing more than to return home.“I did, before I came here. I don't know why I'm so tired,” she responded as she yawned again.Maybe it was the event of the past few days, she muttered to herself. “It's understandable, you've been a lot in the past few days,” the makeup artist remarked, his voice full of pity. Zendaya smiled however, she didn't respond to him. She hated people feeling pity for her especially when it was something she was trying to forget. Even though she understood where they came from, it still irked her especially if the person wasn't a friend or her family.“Alright, I'm all done,” she heard him say to her and she only took a glance in the mirror before she got up. The faster they took the pictures, the faster she would get to go home.Upon reaching the stage, she noticed the man whom she was go

Zendaya hissed in pain as shards of glass cut through her skin. She didn’t however pay much attention to it, as what mattered was getting away from the crazy men who were destroying her car.“Come out here, bitch!” The man who had bashed the driver’s window yelled as he put his hand into the car and grabbed her hoodie.Zendaya didn’t hesitate in moving closer and hitting the man in the throat, which caused him to let go of her and gasp in pain. “You’re going to pay for that,” the other man said as he opened the car door and got into the car.He moved to punch Zendaya to incapacitate her, but she ducked and hit the side of his stomach. Even though she was trained, she was still at a disadvantage due to the position she was in. Her gun was locked in the glove compartment and there was no way she would be to grab it with the men around.Seeing that the other one was still preoccupied with his throat, she opened the door and got out. As soon as she was out, the first guy forgot all about

“Where’s your first-aid kit?” Jayden asked as soon as they got to her house.“Oh, don’t worry, I’ll do it myself,” Zendaya replied, and Jayden turned to glare at her.“Must you be so stubborn?” He asked, just as Zendaya’s helper, who had opened the door, came back with a first aid kit. Walking up to her, he collected the first aid kit. “Sit, let me clean your wounds,” he said to her, and Zendaya shook her head. Seeing that she wasn’t going to listen to him, he reached out and grabbed her hand.“What are you…” the rest of Zendaya’s words got swallowed in her throat as Jayden pulled her down to sit. She didn’t however argue further with him, as she let him do what he wanted.It wasn’t the first time Jayden was assisting her with cleaning her wounds, but it was the first time she was feeling this way because of it. The fact that she couldn’t explain the feeling just made it even more confusing.“Ah,” she hissed when Jayden started cleaning her wounds. “It burns,” she complained as she t

About twenty minutes later, the two men arrived at the place where the male star had been kept. The asshole was currently in a dark room where his hands and feet had been tied up. They were currently watching him through the security camera in the room, as they weren’t to show their faces.“Didn’t your men rough him up a bit?” Jayden’s eyes narrowed as he didn’t notice any bruises nor bleeding.“No, I left that task to you as I know you’d be itching to do so,” Arthur responded, and he was right. He was itching to go and beat the man to death, but another devious, crueller idea came to his mind.“Have your men sexually assault him a bit and get it on video so he knows how it feels,” Jayden instructed Arthur, whose mouth curled up into a devious smile.“And I’m supposed to be the Mafia King. Do you want to switch places?” He offered, and Jayden glared at him before returning his attention to the tied-up man. He had left those two thugs for Lucas to handle, but he wasn’t going to leave

‘Aren't you too young to be using such foul language,’ he asked her, and she sent another middle finger emoji in response.Typical Zendaya, he shook his head. She always did what he told her not to do. ‘So what's your schedule like today? Are you going out or are you going to remain trapped in your parents’ house?’ he asked her and waited for her response.‘Well, all thanks to a certain someone, my dad has ordered me to cancel all my appointments for today and stay home,’ she informed him. That was a good decision on Lucas’ part, Jayden thought to himself. She was injured, and she needed to take a break from her busy schedule so she could rest and give her body time to heal.‘Also now, the guards will follow me everywhere and be with me at all times. Thanks for that,’ she told him as she sent the middle finger once more. His mind immediately took him back to the time when he had her pinned underneath him as she screamed his name. Soon, he would punish her for continuously swearin

‘Friends,’ she accepted without thinking too much about it. It was the first time Jayden was extending an olive branch to her, and she wasn't ready to go back to the way they were before he left.‘Good choice. If you had rejected my offer I would have started thinking of fulfilling my promise of destroying you,’ he told her, and she wasn't surprised as she knew Jayden.‘So predictable,’ she sent in response. Her heart dropped when she heard a sound from behind her, and she quickly hid her phone while turning to see what it was. There was nobody behind her, she waited for a few seconds, but she saw nothing. It must have been the air, she thought to herself as she turned to look back at her phone.A gasp escaped from her lips when she saw Jayden’s face staring at her. “What are you doing on my phone?” she asked him.“You video called me,” Jayden told her. “Oh,” she mumbled. She must have done so by accident when she jumped up in fear.“Well, bye,” she bid as she proceeded to disconne

Jayden had just come out of the shower when he heard his phone ring. Wrapping a towel around his waist, he walked up to it, and he picked it up. He saw that it was his father calling him. Wondering what the old man was calling him for, he answered it. “Dumong is dead,” Justin informed him bluntly. “And right now I suggest you stay far away from Zendaya as her father is not happy with you,” Justin told his son and this made Jayden realize that his father had told Lucas about all that happened“When is he ever not?” Jayden rolled his eyes. Lucas Valencia didn't like him, and he had never bothered to hide that fact, so him being angry with him wasn't a new thing.“Is it too late to choose a new girl? I mean, there is this nice girl I met and…”“Goodnight Dad,” Jayden wished his father before Justin could complete his words.He dressed quickly, slipping into a T-shirt and sweatpants before grabbing his phone again. Without wasting time, he immediately proceeded to text Zendaya as he wa

“Let’s agree to disagree,” Justin stated.“No, there’s nothing to disagree on. Your son is the troublemaker out of the two!” Lucas persisted, and Justin massaged his temple as he wondered why his son had to choose Lucas’ daughter.From the way Lucas was behaving, he could tell the latter was afraid that his daughter would fall for Jayden, and he didn’t want that to happen. Too bad there was nothing he could do to stop it from happening, Justin thought to himself.The two men turned to look at the man who was tied up when he groaned. It took a few seconds for him to regain consciousness and when he did, his eyes widened in horror upon seeing the two devils from his past.“Welcome back,” Lucas greeted the man.“Please, I promise I won't do it again,” Dumong immediately started pleading for his life, begging for mercy.“Come on, Dumong. Last time we gave you a chance and didn't kill you and look at how you tried to repay us,” Justin spoke as he walked up to his tool table and grabbed

After leaving Justin's house, he had made up his mind to come see his daughter as he needed to know what was going on. The excuse Jayden had given for changing the guards didn't sit well with him as he assumed it to be a lie, which was why he had called for his private jet, and they had left at the crack of dawn. It wasn't as though he didn't trust his daughter, it was Jayden he had the issue with as he was nothing but trouble just like his father. “Dad?” Zendaya’s voice broke him out of his thoughts and he turned to face her. “Why are you here?” “You weren't speaking to me, and so I had to come see for myself,” he stated just as Kiandra walked up to them and in her hands was a plate of food as she was not bothered. “I'm just here because he dragged me along,” Kiandra told her daughter. When she had tried to convince her husband to stay back, he carried her into the car with the intention of showing her she was wrong. “We were going to come back home today, there was no need to

However, all didn’t go as planned as when Juliette called her to give her an update, it was bad news.“Zendaya, the plan went downhill. My dad didn’t check the presentation, and he asked Jayden to present it in front of the investors.”“What?!” She yelled as the colour drained from her face. What was in that flash-drive was not only embarrassing but, in front of investors, it made one look unserious.“Did he lose the deal?” Zendaya asked the burning question, and she heaved a sigh of relief when Juliette answered in the negative.“However, dad isn’t very happy, and he’s sending Jayden away,” Juliette however informed her.“He is just mad, he’ll change his mind,” was what she had responded with. Zendaya naturally assumed that Justin just made that decision in anger, as he had said so before and didn’t follow through.However, she realized he had not been joking. When she realized this, she intended to come clean about what had happened, but her father stopped her from doing so.Accord

“Alright, fine, I’ll help you,” Juliette agreed and Zendaya smiled in excitement. “But if you get caught, I’m throwing you under the bus,” she gave a heads-up and Zendaya had no problem with that.“So, what do you intend to do to him?” Juliette inquired.“Jayden likes his reputation a lot and so, I intend to humiliate him the same way he does to me,” Zendaya stated. “Don’t worry, it just won’t be in public,” she assured Juliette. Even though she was revenge-filled, she knew she would feel guilty if she humiliated Jayden in front of others who weren't family.“Okay, that seems fair, just let me know what I need to do,” Juliette told her.“Don’t forget me as well, you know your other best friend,” a third voice came from inside the room and the remaining two shrieked in horror as they turned their attention to the bed, where the voice had come from.“Hi, guys,” Anaya said as she sat up on the bed.“How long have you been there for?” Zendaya was the first to speak. She had been wonderi

“Why does it feel like you’ve changed so much?” Zendaya asked Jayden after a decent amount of time had gone by. They were currently sitting on a log of wood, watching the lake and everything around it. The atmosphere felt serene, and she tried her luck to know if he would give her an honest answer.“I have?” Jayden raised an eyebrow and Zendaya nodded in affirmation.“For starters, even though you’re still mean to me, it’s not like before,” she stated.She didn’t cry as much and her life was somewhat peaceful around him. Unlike before when she would constantly look over her shoulder in fear of what he would do next.“I still do not see it,” Jayden shrugged. He knew what she was talking about, however, he wanted to hear it from her perspective.“You didn’t take revenge on me like you promised before you left,” Zendaya pointed out, and a smile appeared on his face as he remembered what he had told her before she left.“You deserved it,” he told her, and she shook her head.“No I didn’t

“Are we not going back home?” Zendaya inquired when she saw that he didn’t take the turning to the mansion.“No, there’s somewhere I discovered, and I would like to show it to you,” Jayden told her, and she squinted her eyes suspiciously at him.“What? Why are you staring like you don’t trust me?” He chuckled.“Because I don’t. Every time you've taken me somewhere to ‘show’ me something, it always ends bad for me and good for you,” Zendaya pointed out.“True, but that was in the past, and I’m a changed person,” Jayden defended himself.“No, you still bully me,” Zendaya refuted his claim.“That is true, but even you can’t deny that I’m not as bad as before.”“I’m glad you knew you were bad.” She turned to look outside the window when they arrived at the edge of a forest. With what had happened days ago, she felt the memories flooding in and goosebumps crept up her spine.“Jayden, what are we doing here?” she turned to face him as the colour drained from her face.“Do you trust me?” Ja

“I checked there as soon as I noticed it was gone. It wasn’t there,” Zendaya scratched her head as she wondered when she had dropped the card.“Keep searching, you'll find it,” Jayden assured her as he turned his attention to the road.“Yes, I’ve been meaning to ask you, why is my middle name your password?” It had been something she had been shocked to find out about but at that time, she couldn’t ask him due to the danger they were in and after that, she forgot about it.“It’s hard to guess,” Jayden responded.“There are a million other things that are hard to guess, it didn’t have to be my middle name,” Zendaya retorted.“It’s just a name, Eleanor, nothing more, nothing less,” Jayden shrugged casually, and she frowned over him calling her by her middle name.“Not to me, change it, I don’t want you using my name,” Zendaya deadpanned.“Ok, fine, I’ll change it,” Jayden told her just to get her off his back. If he was going to change it, it would be either to her first name or her d
