Jane flinched when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Turning back she heaved a sigh in relief seeing Leo standing in front of her.

" Hey, are you ok? It's just me." Leo said, unsure of her sudden tensed behavior.

" Yeah, yeah I am good.". Jane smiled trying to act casually.

" So shall we dance, miss shorty?" Leo teased her to lighten her mood.

Jane was about to agree to his proposal but then she realized the word he had used to address her.

" Why did you just say ?" She asked, raising one of her eyebrows, daring him to repeat.

Leo chuckled and dragged her to the dance floor.

Soon she joined her friends along with Leo and started vibing to the music.

" Oh by the way Leo I forgot to tell you Camilla called today". Jane said, keeping her gaze fixed on his face to see the reaction.

For a moment she felt like his eyes twitched with some buried emotions but it was soon gone.

" Oh really! What was that brat saying?"

He forced a smile on his lips, trying to maintain his cool. But his eyes

    " What do you want from me?" Jane asked, still processing what he just said." So eager to know huh? But why so hurry baby? The night is still young". Adrian teased her.Her puzzled expression made Adrian smirk internally. Standing straight he pulled her closer so that her body touched his torso. Jane quickly kept her hand on his chest to make some distance between them. Encircling his arm around her waist tightly Adrian chuckled at her futile attempt. Gripping her nape lightly he brought her face closer to his looking deep into her eyes." Oh, darlin'! I want to do so many things to you but trust me your little angel mind won't be able to take that. So we'll take it slow. Ok?" He whispered without even blinking to make her understand how serious he was but at the same time trying to be considerate.Her eyes looked at him like lava erupting from a volcano. " What else can be expected from a womanizer like you? Fucking pervert?" Jane hissed at him with the same contrasting intensity

    Adrian quietly pulled the chair from Jane's desk and took a seat. His eyes roamed through the room out of curiosity. It's just the same since his last visit. Well, that was his first visit too. The memory of his small encounter with her in the kitchen made him genuinely smile. He couldn't believe that he only wanted to bed her for one night. It was surprising, almost terrifying for him to realize how deep his feelings had grown within some months. He still wanted to bed her, but for every night. He didn't think he would ever have enough of her. Probably he always wanted her like this, but his stubborn ego never let him admit his newly found feelings. Now She became as important as the air he breathes in.He wanted to propose to her the very next day of her birthday, but he decided against it. She was already very angry with him. She could have rejected him because of her stubbornness. So he was waiting for her anger to subside.She was not in a position to make a choice anymore. Will

    Jane stirred as a loud sound disturbed her sleep. The sunlight already lightened up the room, invading the curtains of the glass windows. She squinted her eyes and placed her hands in the front to protect her eyes from the sharp sunlight. "Oh! It's morning already! But where was the noise coming from?" Turning to the other side to find the source she saw her cell phone, kept on the table. "Oh, Shit! It's my phone."Jane picked up the phone hurriedly."Hello." She received the call." Well good morning to you too princess. Rise and shine." Isabella said dramatically. Jane smiled, listening to her. " Have you checked your inbox? We don't have classes today. So what's your plan today?" Isabella asked, excited." No, I haven't yet. What happened suddenly?" Jane asked, frowning." I don't know. There are some unavoidable reasons. That's what they said. We got only one holiday. Be happy, girl." Isabella complained." Umm yeah you are right. I don't really have any plans. Auntie was a

    " Are you a kid too?" Jane stopped and turned to face him, giving him a questioning look. " I only told the kids to leave. Why are you leaving darling? Come here. I need to talk to you". Jane halted in her place with a blank face and waited for him to speak further." How are you my feisty cat? It's been a couple of days since our last meeting." He said while walking towards her.Jane closed her eyes and dug her nails into her palm as the memory from that night again rushed to her mind. She wanted to avoid him at any cost. She was somehow afraid of what he might do to her again. But she refused to let him win." Stop giving me these stupid nicknames. Jane. That's my name and you are allowed to call me only that." She let her words out clear and loud.Taking two large steps Adrian stood in front of her. " What if I don't? What will you do then huh, feisty cat?" He chuckled, deliberately putting more pressure on the last word to see her reaction. Leaning down he took a strand of h

    Buttoning up his shirt Adrian ran his fingers through his hair and left the room. While descending the stairs he stopped halfway seeing the person at the front.Adrian looked at him with a blank face." Addy bro, Did you see sissy?" Leo asked him, still roaming his gaze around to get a glimpse of her.Adrian frowned listening to Leo. Sissy? Sister? Did he have a sister too? He didn't know that." Do you have a sister too?" He asked, confused." Oh! I mean Jane. We are childhood buddies but she is like my sister. Mom is searching for her but God knows where she is." Leo ended up giving him a detailed answer that he didn't ask for. But his mind was stuck at one word, sister.Adrian felt a sudden gush of relief hit him empting the burden of his chest. ' She is like a sister to him!' Adrian thought in his mind, delighted. All this time he kept blaming her for nothing. But how would he know that they didn't like each other romantically? Sister or not he didn't like how she was so c

    " Are you sure you wanna bunk the last class?" Isabella asked Jane, raising her eyebrows. Since morning she could feel her friend's restlessness. She had a feeling that Jane was disturbed about something. There was no way this girl would miss a class willingly. But she kept insisting that nothing happened. " huh?! Oh. I... yeah. I gotta go. Aunt Mary wanted me home early. Bye Isabella. See you." Jane left hurriedly without giving any chance to Isabella to speak further.Clutching her backpack tightly she almost rushed out of the gate. She let out the breath that she was holding for so long. Even the gatekeeper was looking at her weirdly. Jane soon took some steps forward to make herself invisible from the building. It was all happening because of him. She couldn't believe she had to lie to everyone just because he wanted her to. Looking at the sky she couldn't help but envy the birds. How they were flying utilizing freedom to its fullest. She dreamed of that freedom. Only if she

    Jane took a step back seeing his reaction. Adrian rubbed the bridge of his nose with his thumb and kept running his hands through his hair, unbothered. His calm composed state made her stomach churn. She wasn't sure if she was ready to face the upcoming storm yet. Whistling, Adrian started walking in her direction, reducing the gaps. To maintain the distance Jane kept going backward but Adrian didn't change his pace. His face was fixed on her. Suddenly her back hit a rigid structure. Turning back she saw a wood crafted wall abstaining her from taking any steps backward. Taking out the ring from her finger she threw it on the ground in frustration. In acute desperation of saving herself from his wrath, she bolted for the doorway of the house. Turning back she almost succeeded to close it but the door was jerked open from the outside. There stood the person she wanted to hide from. Panicking she ran towards the staircase but was pulled to his chest in a flash. As soon as she starte

    Adrian left the house in fury. Banging hard with his fist on a nearby wall he hopped in the driver's seat and closed the door with a thud. The heavy engine harshly rambled as he sped away with his car. He couldn't trust his own self. Spending one more minute with her, he would have ended up hurting her again. But she brought it on herself. The girl was an ill mannered rebel. To date, he kept taking her disrespect lightly. He even found her tantrums cute. But now it was getting annoying. He needed to take her fully under his control before it's too late.He still couldn't comprehend how she could reject him. HIM! She kept telling him that he was proud and arrogant but in reality when she was the one. He planned so much for the evening but she had to ruin it all. Couldn't she appreciate the effort he was putting in?He just hoped she would soon realize his love. Otherwise, he had to use his twisted ways and surely she'd not like it.…………Samuel checked the time on his wristwatch wh

    PAST CONTINUES _____When they arrived home, Jane's father shoved her inside and slammed the door, locking her in her room. She heard her mother's hurried steps coming closer, and then muffled voices through the door as her father explained everything he thought had happened. Soon, her mother's voice pierced through, furious and hurt. Moments later, the door flew open, and her mother's face was red with anger."What did you do, Jane! You've tarnished our family name. All the respect that your father earned through the years, you ruined it all." her mother shouted, her voice sharp and loud. "Do you know what people will say now, huh? A good, religious Christian girl would never do something like this. Never!" She raised her hand and slapped Jane, the sharp sting ringing in her ears, then hit her again, harder.Jane stood there, numb. She barely felt the slaps, barely registered her mother's words. She just stared blankly, her mind empty.The next day was her birthday. All Jane did was

    PAST CONTINUES ____Robert's voice thundered through the room, making them all freeze. "No," he growled, his eyes darkening. Everyone froze for a moment. "Not before I get her first." His words brought a nasty cheer from the others, filling the room with their hoots and whistles."Now that's like our big bro, " one of them jeered.Jane's chest tightened as terror washed over her. Desperation surged, and with all her strength, she shoved Robert back. He staggered, stunned for a moment, but then his eyes turned furious. He lunged forward, shoving her so hard that she stumbled, her head colliding with the edge of a table. Pain exploded through her forehead as she fell to the ground, a warm trickle of blood beginning to run down her face.“ No … no.. this… it can't be happening. I have to do something. I have to get out of here.” Jane kept repeating the words continuously in her mind. Dazed, she tried to get up, her mind spinning with fear and pain. Jane barely had time to steady herself

    Jay leaned back on his couch, his voice dripped with frustration as he muttered, “Had you guys not given me that stupid challenge, I’d have never gone for someone like her. I mean, seriously! It’s been months, and we haven’t even made it to first base. I keep acting all sweet and cringe, but she keeps acting like a fucking prude!”One of his friends raised an eyebrow, smirking. “So, what’s the plan with her then?”Jay shrugged, rolling his eyes. “Honestly, I was thinking of ending this whole stupid drama. Plus it’s been way too long since I hooked up with Ivy, and I’m already bored. But now…” Jay’s gaze flicked over to Robert, who was sitting silently, a drink in his hand. “Seems like I have to tolerate her for a few more days. Right, Robert?”One of the other guys frowned, looking between Jay and Robert. “Robert? What’s he got to do with this?”Jay smirked, leaning in a little closer, “You don’t know, do you? Well, not sure what Robert saw in her but apparently, that ‘wannabe innoc

    A month later, Jane made her way through the school corridor, looking for Jay. When she finally spotted him with his friends, they were all laughing and teasing him about something. “ Jay!” She called out his name, and all of them turned her way, hooting and grinning. Her face warmed, and she looked away, biting back a smile.As her eyes swept the group, she noticed Rick watching her, his gaze steady. Her smile faltered a bit as memories came rushing back. Rick’s older brother, Robert, had proposed to her last year. Jane’s stomach twisted at the thought.She remembered how uncomfortable she’d felt back then. Robert was much older than her, but he had been so persistent, refusing to accept her polite rejections. But she knew what he was really like. Robert was infamous for his gambling, drinking, and Casanova image. When he didn’t take “no” for an answer, she’d had to stand her ground. She even had to get her family involved, and finally, Robert backed off.Now, seeing Rick’s gaze m

    You’re looking a bit different. Oh my gosh! Did you straighten your hair? And… is that lip gloss?” Camilla’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she studied Jane, a wide grin spreading across her face.Jane shifted uncomfortably, her fingers brushing over her hair. “I… I just thought I’d try something new,” she murmured, trying to brush it off with a weak smile.Camilla’s grin only grew as she nudged Jane playfully. “Oh, stop. Spill it, Jane! Do you think I am too dumb to not understand? All these are because of a certain someone… named… Jay Black?” Her voice dropped to a teasing whisper, eyebrows waggling.Jane’s face flushed, and she tried to deny it, but her cheeks betrayed her, turning bright red. She fiddled with her glasses, feeling her heart hammer as Camilla giggled.Just then, Jay walked over. “Jane, can you please help me wit….” as his eyes flicked to Jane, he paused mid-step. For a moment, he seemed at a loss for words. “Uh… you look different today, Jane,” Jay said, looking a

    “You are suspended for the next one week.” Jane heard the principal’s voice roar from inside his office as she stood outside, her hands fidgeting nervously. She waited, biting her lip, feeling a twist of guilt in her stomach. Jay didn't need to be there, getting the scolding. But he had taken the blame without saying a word.Finally, the door opened, and Jay walked out. He glanced at her and Camilla, who was awkwardly standing by the wall. Camilla looked at him with guilty eyes. “Thanks for… you know, covering for me,” she blurted, looking with guilt and gratitude. “I was just trying to mix those reagents as a joke. I didn’t think—”Jay raised a hand, brushing it off. “It’s fine.”Then his eyes met Jane’s, holding her gaze for just a second. For once, Jane didn’t look away. “Thank you,” she said quietly, feeling the weight of her words.He gave her a small smile, one that was softer than anything she’d ever seen from him. Jane’s heart skipped, and for a moment, everything around the

    HER PAST (CONTINUES) Jane was rushing down the hallway, trying to find her locker when she suddenly collided with someone. Her books scattered across the floor.“Hey! Can’t you watch where you’re going?” a sharp voice rang out.Startled, Jane staggered back, and when she looked up, she saw him—tall, broad-shouldered, and standing over her with a frown. His blonde hair was slightly messy. He had sharp features, a strong jawline, and striking blue eyes that looked down at her with irritation.“I—I’m sorry, I didn’t see you.”The boy rolled his eyes, clearly not interested in her apology. “Whatever. Just stay out of my way next time.”Jane felt her anger rising at the rudeness in his tone. She was about to snap but stopped herself. “Look, I didn’t do it on purpose. You don’t have to be so rude.”The boy raised an eyebrow, his eyes cold, “Maybe you should pay more attention.”Jane’s cheeks flushed with frustration. “Maybe you should be less of a jerk.”The boy gave her a once-over, his l

    “Don’t even dare. Just let me go,” Jane spat, trying to pull away, but Adrian wasn’t listening.In a split second, he pressed his lips against hers. Jane’s entire body froze, her heart stopping in her chest. She turned her head sharply, trying to escape, but before she could shove him away, a voice echoed through the room.“What’s going on here?” Jane’s father’s voice was stern as he entered the room. Jane saw Camilla behind him, entering the room. Her eyes were wide with disbelief.Jane’s face turned pale. Her father and Camilla standing in front of her, Jane finding herself in this position with a boy…. All of these just gave her a flashback. Memories from five years ago flooded her mind. It is the same situation, almost the same people, and the same misunderstanding. And now She was frozen thinking that she had to live that same nightmare once again. Jane could barely breathe as she watched her father take slow, deliberate steps toward her and Adrian. His eyes were blazing with f

The fear, the adrenaline, the horror—it was all too much.Adrian finally turned to face her, his calm expression unchanged. He slowly walked in front of her and held her hands. “ Are you okay?” He whispered, like a lullaby. Unable to form any words, her body trembled.
