Jane's heart pounded in her chest as the music abruptly came to a halt, and she felt Adrian's grip release her. Relief washed over her like a tidal wave, freeing her from the suffocating hold he had on her.

Her breath caught as Adrian leaned in close, his voice a mere whisper meant solely for her ears.

"Don't forget about our date my love",

he murmured, his words carrying a hint of possessiveness and warning.

Jane's eyes widened as she felt her mind racing. She knew she had to keep up appearances, to mask the torment he had put her through.

Glancing around the room, her gaze met Isabella's eyes who was looking at them with dreamy eyes. Her auntie and uncle were puzzled but their expressions were telling of their pride in her.

Liam looked happy to find his sissy for the first time in the evening. While Ryan looked at her with furrowed brows as if trying to understand the situation.

They were all watching her, waiting for an explanation she wasn't yet ready to give.

    Her tear filled eyes wandered vaguely into the distant horizon, making her nostalgic about the good old days. It was almost evening yet she didn't leave her room except for meeting Mary for once. Suddenly, Jane's body tensed as she felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned slowly, a slight sigh of relief escaping her lips."Oh, Leo, it's you!" "How was your trip?" Jane attempted to sound enthusiastic, masking the thoughts that had been swirling in her mind."It was good," Leo replied, flashing his usual charming smile. Jane smiled genuinely in response.Almost two weeks ago, she had heard that Leo had gone on a trip with his friends. At the time, she hadn't given it much thought, but now it all fell into place.

    “ I RAPED HER.” The room was so quiet it felt like time itself had stopped. Adrian’s voice broke the silence again, trembling and choking.“ I... I was just six years old,” he began, his eyes staring at some invisible point in the air. “Outside my school one day, I found a pretty little kitten. So small, so innocent… like a tiny snowball. I loved her so much... too much.” He gulped, his hands clenching tightly, “I’d feed her every day. But when I tried to hold it… it would just run away. One week passed... two weeks... but still, it wouldn’t come near me.” His voice grew weaker as he spoke,“ One day… out of anger, I slapped her away refusing to feed. And then I came home and cried to Mom hard… so, so hard. I didn't eat that night. The next morning when I woke up... the kitten was beside my bed.” He looked toward his mother now, his eyes glossy with tears. “I was so happy, Mom… I was so… so happy that you brought it for me. I hugged her, loved her, tried to take care of her”.His v

    “ Mr. Adrian Alan Johnson, you are under arrest. You need to come with us, please.” One of the officers said with a bit of hesitation. “ What? Why officer?” Samuel asked, he almost couldn't believe his ears. The officer looked at both of their faces before speaking again. “ Mr. White complained about you in the police station. He said you…,” he stopped for a bit, “ that you misbehaved with her daughter, tried to molest her.” The officer completed his words looking at Adrian to get a reaction. But to everyone’s surprise, Adrian was still looking blankly at him, as if lost in his own world. Seeing that Adrian wasn't telling anything Samuel again decided to speak, “ but…” “ I am sorry sir, we can't do anything about this. Mr. Andrew Johnson also went to the station along with Mr. White.” The officer said and waited for them to speak. The shock was visible on Samuel’s face.

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?

    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?

    A month later, Jane made her way through the school corridor, looking for Jay.

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.

    “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.

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
