Kayden's POV.In a flash, my lips were smashed against hers. My hands snaked to her waist and tightened one of my hand around her waist, the other ran up her back, pressing her harder against my chest.I got angry with what she said, how could she say she was not affected by my kiss? When she had ignited something deep in me.The sweetness in her mouth made my head swim. Her lips parted slightly, and I was one never to leave an opportunity unexplored.She struggled against me, to free herself from me, but I pressed her harder against, our bodies smashing against each other.She was right, I thought the kiss won't be anything more than a game, but I couldn't just explain how I felt when she placed her fluffy lips on mine, they were softer than anything I could imagine.I loved the way she tried to resist, but she eventually gave in, her hands find their way around my neck, and she stealthily raked her fingers into my hair.She let out a throaty moan, as she began moving her lips against

It has been a few days, and I've been trying to avoid Kayden, I don't think I'm that strong enough to face him most of the time.I spent most of my time in the library, especially when I was on free period, and I didn't get into much fight with Athena, although she constantly tries to pick on me.It was closing period and I don't intend to go home earlier. So, I entered the library and was going to my favorite spot at the back of the library.I was walking past some shelves when someone shoved me between one of the shelves, my heart raced with panic and my sixth sense was to scream out for help.My mouth was covered with a large arm, which forced me to gaze up. Fear had gotten the better part of me before I realized it was Kayden.'What the hell does he want?' I thought annoyingly.“Shh! I'm the one, don't make noise,” He whispered then looked around making sure no one was coming our way before he removed his palm from my mouth and made sure to brush his thumb over my lower lips.I got

Kayden slowly let go of my lips as he pulled my lower lips slightly with his teeth and suddenly left it, then moved away from me.I glanced around breathing heavily and noticed no one was in sight, still panting trying to gulp in as much air as I could, I gaze back to Kayden who was staring at me while my cheeks were rosy and red like a tomato.“I need to read!” I told him.'Seriously, read after this steamy kiss you had,' My mind shouted at me.I tried to walk, but Kayden blocked my path and I had to force myself to look at him.I can't believe I've kissed him four times in a row now, 'What else does he want again?' I thought, my heart beating faintly.He reached out to me and tugged my hair besides my ear, as I felt my body shudder when his fingers touched my ear.“I would like to study with you,” He notified, while I stared at him awkwardly.“Huh?” I questioned, baffled by his statement.He smiled and moved back a bit away from and brought his hands to his hazel hair and ruffled it,

It was a weekend, and I was helping my parents in the restaurant.The customers were quite much today and the aroma of chicken and chips filled the air while I craved eagerly for just a plate, but mum had refused, saying I would have a plate of chicken and chips when I'm done with my shift.I placed the orders of two lovely couples and helped set their plates on the table, when the doorbell notified of another customer entering the restaurant.I looked up to see Athena and Kayden walking into the restaurant hand in hand, making my stomach twist in a knot and I thought of escaping, so they won't see me.'What the hell are they doing here?' I thought.'How did they even know here?' I questioned annoyingly, while my heart beats lightly.I turned around swiftly and began walking hurriedly to the kitchen.“Hello! Excuse me, we'll like to place our orders,” That was Athena speaking and I froze in my spot while I placed the tray by my side.I decided to ignore them and kept on walking, “Jade

I wished the weekends could stay a bit longer and wouldn't end so soon, I sulked in my breath, hands shoved in my jacket as I walked down the hallway. Mondays always seem busier than usual, and it was sickening for me. Getting closer to my locker, my eyes transfixed on Kayden, who was leaning the side of his body on the locker like he was waiting for someone. I inhaled sharply, wondering why he was standing next to my locker, his arms folded over his chest. I stopped in my tracks, 'Should I just go to class and come back later for my books?' I thought, a slight frown creasing my face. 'I want nothing to do with him,' I seethed inwardly, still glaring at him when he looked up and our eyes held each other. “Jade!” He called eagerly and moved closer to me, while I took a step away from me and raised my hand at him, telling him to stop wherever he was, and he did. “Jade!” He called out again as my eyes sent furious unspoken messages to him. He had called me severally after the annoy

“Don't you ever learn your lesson?” The principal fired at me without even hearing my part of the story, which caused my blood to boil with rage.“I didn't start the fight, sir,” I tried to say calmly while my fist was clenched by each of my sides and my teeth gritted against themselves.“Who started the fight didn't matter, have you forgotten this is what made your previous school transfer you here,” The principal barked, and honestly, he was getting on my nerves and I wanted to punch him so angrily on that annoying face of his.He was just as arrogant as Athena, who seemed happy at the outcome of what happened.She kept on smiling as the principal directed his aggression on me like I wasn't the victim here.I clenched and released my fist as I stood while that bitch sat comfortably on the chair in front of the principal, putting on a fake facial appearance like she was the one who got hurt the most and not started the trouble in the first place.“From what I've heard so far, I can s

“It's okay, dear,” Mum patted my back gently as I sulked to myself while sitting on my bed.“I'm sorry, I didn't get to keep my promise… I just couldn't--” “Shhh! It's okay dear,” Mum hugged me while Dad kept on rubbing the back of my hand and smiled at me softly.“We know you didn't start the fight first,” Dad said, and I nodded.At least I still have my parents who trust me so much, that's more than enough.“Goodnight dear,” Mum said, finally standing up from my bed and walking closer to Dad, who wrapped his hands immediately around her waist as they smiled at me.“Goodnight mum, dad,” I responded and lay on my right side staring at them.“We love you,” They both said and began walking towards the entrance of my room and close the door behind them quietly when they were outside.“I love you both,” I whispered and sat on my bed immediately.I grabbed my glasses from the drawer and picked up my phone… I scrolled through the apps on my phone and clicked on Netflix.'I won't get annoye

Jade's POV.Days passed by, and I constantly ticked off the days until when my suspension will end on the calendar. Being alone is one of the worst things in the universe, but at least it wasn't that bad, to some extent, for an introvert like me.I haven't heard from anyone in my school, not like I was expecting one in the first place, since I didn't have any special bonding with anyone.I tied my hair into a high ponytail and wore a big-sized black hoodie, and underneath it was a black crop sports bra.Likewise, I put on matching black joggers and grabbed a black face cap. Since I won't be having anything much to do for the day, I decided to go to the gym and exercise.~~~Beads of sweat formed on my face as I hit the punch bag, I steadied my balance in place, my hands fisted in the boxing gloves I was wearing, and waited for the punching bag to swing back to me before clustering more strength in my arm and hit it again as it went swinging away.I jump and bounced slightly waiting fo

Jade's POV.I smiled as I remembered what happened in those past weeks. Kayden woke up and his Dad fainted because he was overjoyed, and he was admitted too in the hospital. The doctors were surprised when Kayden woke up, they confessed that they thought that he wouldn't wake up til maybe a year or two since he was so cold and lifeless, he was already like a dead man and they thought he would never make it. He was shot in the chest, the shoulder, and the back, which pierced through to his stomach. He was so dead, he lost almost all the blood in his body and it was a miracle that he was alive and I can't stop being thankful.When he woke up, he refused to let me leave his presence and I was not ready to leave too, I wanted him closer to me as much as he did me. I wanted to be in his arms and never let go. When the doctors saw that we both were not letting each other go, they had no choice but to admit us into the same ward and they would treat us on the same bed, inject us with our me

Jade's POV.I found myself in a dark open space, but I was not afraid, I was walking hand in hand with Kayden. Though the place was filled with darkness, I could feel the wetness of the ground, which felt like flowers around. It must be a flower garden, but I couldn't see it. How did I know that it was Kayden I was walking with? Because I was feeling the same way I always feel anytime I was with Kayden and his hand fit rightly in mine.I glanced at his dark and he chuckled like he always does. I stared away and walked more. Suddenly a bright light showed around and I gasped. The light began to pull me closer and I was willingly following it, it was calling out to me, but I noticed that Kayden was not following me anymore and his hand was slipping away from mine. I wanted to shout his name but I couldn't, it was like my lips were sealed. I took hold of his hand with my both hands, not ready to let him go, but his hand eventually slipped off from mine and the light took me away, and th

Author's POV.Kayden was surprised to see his uncle standing right behind Jade, what was he doing there? And in a place like this. He thought."Uncle Theodore?" He had to ask again to confirm that he was not seeing in twos."Kayden, Kayden, Kayden, my favorite nephew." Theodore spoke in a singsong and with each word, he was pulling himself closer to Kayden while Kayden's eyes rose in confusion. "Did you miss me?"Kayden couldn't reply to him, he had his mind clouded with the same question. What is Uncle Theodore doing here? Though the answer to his question was glaring at him he didn't want to believe it. Theodore was his uncle for Christ's sake, the only child of his grandparents after his father!"Why aren't you talking? Still, I'm shocked. Oh no! That is not nice!" Theodore's voice was laced with mockery."Why? I mean, what are you doing here? I... I wasn't planning on seeing you here!" Kayden's eyes went to Jade and saw two hefty men holding her tightly. He returned his eyes to Th

Jade's POV.I felt myself awake but my eyes were closed, I was hearing some disturbing voices in my head, and I almost thought that it was Mom and Dad who were planning a prank on me. I tried to lift my hand to wipe the dizziness off so that I could be able to open my eyes but I couldn't raise my hands, none of them was raising and I feared, what's happening to me? Why are my hands stuck? I didn't have answers to my questions so I decided to pick the words the people around me were saying.".....she is still asleep, why the hell is that?!" One of them thundered and I almost shivered, the voice was so loud and daring. Dad's voice cannot sound like that and I began to put meaning to things around me.The event in the restroom rewind in my head and I got it, I was sedated and kidnapped. Damn! That person that flirted something on my face, how couldn't I notice it? One person cannot come to the school to take me, I should have thought of it very well before walking out, I could have peepe

Uncle Henry's POV.I should have known that something like that was bound to happen. I should have known that he would not give up, he would find something to pull Kayden out of the mansion and I should have known that the target would be Jade, my poor niece.I know that since it happened that way, we couldn't have been able to prevent it. If Jade was tightly secure like Kayden was, I was sure that he would use another method like maybe kidnap any of Jade's parents to lure her out, just the same way he was using Jade to lure Kayden. I stood before my sister's house and I sighed. I didn't know how they got to know about the kidnapping, but here I was trying to stand before them as a shoulder, I had to come here first before going back to the mansion to see that kid, Kayden. He is going insane and his father has to lock him into the room so that he won't leave to go to the location of the kidnappers without a proper plan. He would just get himself killed.I entered the house and just a

Kayden's POV.I was tired of staying indoors as it has been days already, but what can we do? Even Uncle Henry, who never finds it difficult to find a culprit, according to Jade, was finding this difficult. Nothing was leading us to him and all the people Dad was remembering were so out of the line, that they had nothing to do with the attacks after George, Dad's private investigator, and Uncle Henry investigated them. They were as clean as anything and I had a feeling that we would not be seeing the culprit soon.After the call Jade. I called Brandon, "Hey man.""My guy, what's up?" His voice was facetious, he was not expecting my call at least not that in the morning, but I was dying of boredom, I needed someone to keep me company before Jade arrived, and then I would chase all of them away to be with only Jade."I'm bored," I told him, "Are you up for some games?""Sure, will be up in a minute or two. You're calling me from my dream." He joked."Lazy ass. Don't keep me waiting, you

Jade's POV.It was another day of school and I was in my room, dressing up for school as I was on a video call with Kayden. He was in his room, under curfew. He was to hide himself from his attackers til he or she would be found.I had taken my bath and brushed my teeth in the bathroom. I had also dried my body and a long towel was tightly fixed around my chest."........are you telling me that you will be in there without coming out til the coast is clear and you're free to leave for anywhere you are?" I questioned him, already knowing his answer."Yes." He replied. "Dad is trying, I'm beginning to pity him," Kayden said to me."I thought you hated him. Remember you said that he is paying for his sin and for being the very worst father ever." I knew he had said that without thinking and now, he was regretting it, I just want him to laugh and be happy. I mean, he is not even attacked yet, so he deserves to be happy.He growled childishly, "I was a fool when I said that, though I will

Jade's POV.I laughed when Kayden told his Dad to leave, but that did not even hurt the man, he entered anyway even without Kayden's concept. "Son, we need to talk."I stopped what I was doing, ready to get up and give them some privacy, but I was stopped by Kayden. "Continue what you're doing Jade, it's more important." He didn't even mind his Dad's presence, he spoke sultrily."You're embarrassing the lady, come on." Mr Walters said and my embarrassment rose to its highest level.Kayden turned his head to look at me and he must have noticed that his Dad was right. He motioned for me to get up from him, which I did. I watched as he stood up and flexed his muscles and wiggled his waist."Thanks, babe, I feel so good." I nodded, I couldn't talk the way I wanted to, his Dad was present and I didn't want to offend him. Kayden frowned and turned to his Dad, "Leave Dad, you're making her uncomfortable."My eyes widened when I heard that. He shouldn't have said it, because my nervousness r
