“Jade, don't let Ivy get to you,” Ariana alerted as I bounced, my palms glued firmly against the basketball.The screeching sounds of our sneakers and the hitting of the basketball on the floor echoed in all corners of the court building.Ariana, Ivy, and I decided to play basketball, it was break time and again the three of us didn't have any work in our fifth period, so we decided to play basketball.It was Ariana and me against Ivy. I passed the ball to Ariana, but Ivy pushed her out of the way and grabbed the ball and I sighed, Ariana chased after her while Ivy dribbled her, I jogged to where they were to help Ariana, I had grabbed the basketball from Ivy when it slipped off my palm then Ivy bounced forward catching the ball and began running to net post.She jumped when she was close by, throwing her arms to the back with both hands on the basketball.She aimed for The post and threw the ball but unfortunately for her, the ball just hit the hoop of the net and fell to the floor w

The chattering and buzzing noises from the students all the time in the morning could be very sickening most of the time.I was making my way towards my locker, always getting weird and curious stares from the students as I passed by.They knew about the lovey-dovey going on between Kayden and me, all thanks to him making it obvious.I could recall how Ariana and Ivy screamed in their voices when I told them Kayden had asked me out… They were grinning from ear to ear and wanted to know more details when I told them that he took me to his home.I approached my locker and froze to my spot when my eyes fell on someone.'Brandon?''What's he doing there?' I thought and slowly took my steps approaching him.He was leaning on his side beside my locker, with his arms folded on his chest, like he was waiting for someone.I got closer to him and coughed slightly, then he turned his face in my direction, his eyes sparked, and he moved away from the locker staring at me.His height overshadowed m

“We are sorry Kayden,” Kai, Landon, and Brandon apologized while I smiled standing behind Kayden.I'm happy that they apologized to their friend, while Kayden stared sternly at them, I had persuaded him from break time and even closing before he agreed to meet with them.“Fine,” Kayden grumbled, his hands shoved in the pocket of his trouser, a smile broke free on Kai's lips, and he moved closer to Kayden and spread his arm.Kayden rolled his eyes at him, and I chuckled and elbowed him.“Ouch!” He grimaced, snapping his gaze at me, while I angled my head at him.“Hug him,” He furrowed his brow at me and sighed, then he pulled Kai into an embrace and patted Kai's back.Brandon and Landon chuckled and they moved closer. Kayden and Kai let go of each other.“So, we are good, man?” Landon asked, stretching his arms to Kayden.“Yeah,” Kayden muttered and shook him.“Jade, I have to thank you so much, if it weren't for you, Kay, will hate our gut,” Kai appreciated, and I smiled at him.“You

Kayden parked his car in the new restaurant park he was talking about, and I was the first to hop out of the car. I pranced around and stretched my arms in the air, and Kayden minced over to me, a light smile playing on his lips while he gazed at me intensely.I was loving this new side of me, I was loving this free-spirited and happy life I was living, and it was all thanks to him.He was the sweetest thing that ever happened in my life, he is my prince charming.I smiled as he approached me, I stretched my hands to him, and he grabbed my hands, pulling me closer to him, I twirled round to him, and he wrapped his arms around me.My face was buried in his chest and I inhaled his lovely cologne, I loved everything about him, I loved the warmth I felt from his body each time I was around him.He pressed me closer to his body and placed soft kisses on my hair.“I love hugging you,” I muttered, in his chest.“I love hugging you too, and there are other things I love about you,” He said, an

“So, let's start with the basics,” Kayden started, parking by the side of a road that seemed to be deserted around some woods.I stared at him eagerly, “This is how we start the car,” He showed me a place beside the steering wheel, he showed me his key and I nodded and watched how he inserted it inside and turned it to the right and the car came to life.“Try it,” He gestured to me handing his keys to me which I collected, and leaned closer to him.I did exactly what he did earlier, inserting the key and turning it to the right and the car came to life, I turned my head to him, and he smiled.“Good,”“Now, I'm moving to the gears, and I'm going to show you how to use the controls,” He uttered, and I nodded affirmatively.“First, I will start with the windshield wipers,” “Okay,” I muttered, prying my eyes at the movement of his hand.“So, this is the windshield wipers control stalk on the right side of the steering wheel,” He told me, touching the black stalker and I leaned closer to h

I opened my eyes, flapping my eyelashes at him, and he gave me that sarcastic look of his.“Were you expecting something?” He teased while I annoyingly faced my front, my lips curling in a twist.“No!” I blurted.And I heard his soft chuckles behind me.“Let's drive,” He said, then closed the door while I was sitting on his legs.He placed his hands on mine, holding them firmly against the wheel.“Are you ready?” He whispered, and I could feel his lips on my neck.'God! Why is he so sexy all the time? I can barely concentrate,' I groaned inwardly, trying to release my breath.“Yes,” I muttered, and he leaned on my neck.We began driving, and I loved it, it wasn't as hard as I thought it will be, if you are confident and not all that nervous, it will be easy.Kayden had let go of my hands, and I was the one controlling the wheel, although he still tells me when to hit the brakes and accelerator pedals.I was driving at a speed of ten kilometers per hour, “Hit the brakes,” Kayden said, a

Kayden parked his car in front of my house, he stretched one of his hands to the back seat and helped me take my bag while I unbuckled my seatbelt.He turned his gaze to me while I was trying to pack my hair up in a ponytail.“Let me help you with your hair,” He offered to lean closer to me and I nodded, he collected the black band in my right hand while I shifted slightly on the seat, turning my back to him.I chewed on my lower lips when I felt his hands on my hair, I threw my head back slightly for him, while he gathered all my hair up in one of his hands and then used the band in his right hand to keep them up for me.“Thanks,” I muttered when he was done and moved back to my position on the comfy leather seat.“You are welcome,” He responded, and I turned my face to stare at him.He handed my bag to me while he maintained eye contact with me.'Honestly, I don't want to leave him yet,'Kayden leaned closer to me, then he placed his hand on the side of my face while I bit on my low

I closed my locker after taking my Accounting textbook, then turned around and began walking to class.The hallway was annoyingly crowded this morning, students pushing their way among themselves to get to their classes.I raised my face which I had lowered to my arms after taking a turn when I saw someone familiar dressed in a black jacket and white tee shirts underneath pass by me, The cologne filled my nostrils and I knew that scent too well.It was intoxicating…'Was it Kayden?' I thought.I turned my head over my shoulder to gaze at him curiously, but I couldn't make out his face earlier because he was wearing a nose mask when he was coming away, but I felt his eyes were on me when we made brief contact with our eyes before he brushed past me. My eagerness made me turn around in my tracks and stared at his back as he kept on walking, I could see the large fire design imprinted on the back of his black jacket, then he glanced over his shoulder and our eyes met again.They were bl

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

There was no more fun and Brandon with the other guys did not cease to tease us with it."Uncle Henry!" I opened the car's door and ran to him as I

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
