" Adrian.. No.. Adrian.." Adrian heard Samuel shouting from back in fear for quite some time. But needless to say, that didn't bother him at all. A twisted grin spread across his face. Adrian looked truly psychotic as he opened the safety lock. " Stop. Adrian STOP! STOP!" Samuel shouted terrorized as he realized Adrian would end up causing a blunder. But he saw little to no change in his expression. He didn't dare to use his strength as Ryan's life was dependent on that trigger. " IF YOU KILL HIM SHE WOULD HATE YOU FOREVER." Samuel blurted out with no other option left. " Jane doesn't love you, Adrian! She loves Ryan." Samuel decided to tell his friend the truth he needed to know. Everything around Adrian suddenly stopped for an infinite time. Everything around him seemed to come crashing down as he processed Samuel 's words. The gun held in his hand fell onto the ground. What did he just say? What type of silly fun was it? Leaving Ryan, Adrian came in front of Samuel ." Yo
Jane was lying on her bed, her restless mind was an absolute mess. Sleep was far away from her teary eyes. Since she came back from Johnson mansion, she couldn't stop her restless mind for a second. Hatred, Regret, Gratitude, were mixing up in her mind making her wish to be vanished. She tried to escape to her imaginary world but her mind didn't allow it. Her thinking came to a halt and her inner voice seemed to stop for the first time since evening as she heard the sound of the door opening. Her every sense rose to its high alert mode. Getting up from the bed she was about to take a step when she figured out a dark silhouette near the door." Wh...who?" Jane gulped in fear. Before even she could repeat her words a tall figure started taking slow steps towards her, like a predator to its prey. The light from the night lamp fell on his sharp features making them clearer gradually."Ad..Addy.. You ?" Jane couldn't believe her eyes. Adrian? Here? How? Wasn't he supposed to be at his pa
His hand drags down the side of her waist, spreading his fingers to feel her curves all too closely. His fingers kept tracing along her naked belly.Suddenly Jane went stiff as his fingers started roaming dangerously closer to her inner thigh. Smirking at her reaction, Adrian pushed her underwear down her leg." N.. no… NO!!!! " She tried to hide her last bit of dignity, closing her thighs together, from his ravening gaze. " Don't hide from me, baby. I own you. I need to claim you, today. Now!" Adrian inhaled sharply at the sight of her bare folds. His fingers drew circles on her flesh, absorbing everything that was presented in front of his prying eyes. Taking a deep breath he freed himself from his underwear. He almost growled in satisfaction as his member finally sprang out. Within a moment Adrian brought out the condom from his pants pocket scattered on the floor, and put it on with ease.Her eyes shot wide open as she felt her legs separated by his large veiny hands. Jane's h
Have you ever pretended to be alive? Have you ever been to your own funeral? That's how Jane felt as she stirred, her eyes fluttering open to a world that seemed alien. The room now bore the scars of a storm she didn't want to remember. A shiver crawled up her spine, and her cold hand traced the outlines of bruises etched into her skin. She felt small, and fragile, like a porcelain doll shattered and left abandoned.She heard the roar of the thundering sky. It must be raining. The room seemed to hold its breath, even the sky was mourning alongside her. Jane touched the tender spots on her arms trembling, the sole proof of her pained tale she wished was a nightmare.Last night she lost something precious and it was more than just her sexual innocence. She had lost a part of herself forever and deep down she knew it would probably never be the same. Tears welled up, rolling down her cheeks, leaving a salty trail on her skin. She was tired, not just physically tired but the kind of tir
“ Where am I?” Jane asked, holding her breath, looking at the person sitting in front of her who had proved himself to be a monster last night. “You are with me, love, at my place”. Adrian smiled at her while taking a step towards her bed. It took her a while to process his words. What did he mean by his place? It wasn't his room or even his apartment. Where did he take her then? A cold shiver ran down her spine thinking about the possibility. “ Your place? But… but it's… it's … not your apartment. Then?” Jane tried to sit with a jerk as she felt her heart thumping at an inhuman speed in fear. She gulped hard, seeing Adrian near the bed. “ Relax love, relax.” Adrian placed himself on the edge of the bed. Seeing her disheveled hair on her face, his hand instinctively leaned towards her, trying to tuck it behind her ear. Jane slapped his hand out of instinct, terrified, while trying to place herself away from Adrian. “ Don't.. don't touch me.” The words came out of her mouth as a
“ Oh come on Jane! Don't pretend. DON'T FUCKING PRETEND.” Isabella shouted at the top of her lungs. “ What… what happened?” Jane was dumbfounded. “ Ask your dear lover, who is bloody obsessed with you. Last night Adrian beat Ryan so badly that he is in the hospital right now. He is still unconscious!”Jane felt the ground beneath her slip listening to Isabella. “ Ry.. Ryan…” she only managed to utter the name as a lump formed in her throat. “ Wh… why …. How?” Her voice cracked. The heaviness of her heart was too much to bear. “ For you of course.” Isabella snapped. “ Look at you Jane. Somehow managed to pull two men way out of your league and still acting all innocent and clueless". Isabella threw the venomous words at her as her rage boiled over.“ Trust me.. trust me, Bella. I didn't know anything. Ryan.. where is he? Please tell me. Is he okay?” Jane cried out loud. Her only friend in this city was in hospital just because of her and the thought killed her in guilt and shame.
“ I need to go to the office, Jane. I have made you breakfast. Have it. I only made pancakes and I hope you are okay with that. Not really a versatile cook you know!” Adrian said in one go, chuckling lightly. He went on as if two partners were having the most normal conversation in a random morning. Jane didn't mind replying as her eyes were set outside. Her eyes were dull, dead, missing the spark it once had. Their conversation from what happened two nights ago was echoing in her mind relentlessly__2 days ago,“ Remember Jane, you are mine. And nothing in the world can change that. I didn't want to force you. But even you were forgetting who you belong to. So, I simply made you remember that. And let me tell you I don't regret my actions, not even a bit.” His thick voice declared while his lips were trailing all over her face. One of his hands was holding both of her wrists while the other one kept roaming freely all over her body, caressing her stomach and putting pressure betwe
“ Jane has been missing for the last three days, Addy”. Andrew's voice made Adrian stop on his track. “ She might be with her family or friends. What's the big deal?” Adrian tried to keep his tone normal. “ That's right. She is with her friend. In Fact, when Britney called her she said that she was with Isabella.” Andrew said, looking nowhere but straight to Adrian.“ So?” Adrian turned completely to face his brother. “ Nothing. But that girl is very kind and considerate I must say. I mean I just went to visit Ryan Gomez two days ago at the hospital and his cousin, Isabella was quite angry with all of us. She had every right to be. But you know what the funny thing is? She was very angry with Jane too. So isn't it amazing how she was so damn angry with her friend but still let Jane live with her. On top of that, she pretended like she didn't know anything about Jane's whereabouts. Interesting, no?” Andrew's gaze looked at Adrian sharply, his tone was laced with mockery and chall
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 brutality, the swiftness of it all— made Jane feel sick. Adrian just killed him! He just killed him in the most brutal, animalistic way. Death came in an instant, without hesitation.Aria clung to Jane, her small body trembling, and Jane could barely hold herself together. Right then, she felt more helpless than ever. 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. Adrian held her face gently and Jane got back her senses as the warm blood touched her face. She visualized a slideshow of everything that happened in the last few months. How she came to this city to fulfill her dream of being a doctor. But now, her hands felt heavy, tainted by the bloodshed she had just witnessed. The lifeless bodies on the floor, the violence she never imagined being a part of—it
