ADRIAN'S POV "What was that? You looked so scared and... wait, weren't you already planning to leave by the time we left you last night? You already entered your car and drove off..." Kun questioned. "I saw something unpleasant so I had no choice but to return to make things right. I should have called any of you but..." I began. "I don't know... It's just there." I added before lowering my head. "Can you head to a bar? I need to take a drink or two." I pleaded. Knight and Kun shared a glance but soon nodded "Okay. Let's go to the nearest club here." They said as they increased the speed. I knew they were very bothered about me and would love to hear what happened last night... I would have loved to tell them too but it was just too much. I found it so hard to open up to anyone about it even though I was scared that I might lose my mind if I went further than this. The whole thing was worrying for me and I needed someone to advise me about the issue. The drive to the bar was fas
ADRIAN'S POVI wished it ended like that, probably I wouldn't be so bothered right now but it didn't and now, I felt like I was in bigger trouble. "If you really decided to leave the school that way, it will affect you a lot. Is that why you are bothered?" Knight asked and I shook my head. "Then, what's it that's bothering you?" He questioned. "Something else happened last night..." I replied and their eyes widened. "What again? Did you or him get drunk again?" Kun asked. "I was driving home last night when I saw someone dragging Austin to a car. The way he was, it was obvious he wasn't conscious so I decided to follow them and see what they were up to. They suddenly came out of their car and carried him toward an area, I did the same and followed them but the men were discreet, causing me to lose them along the way. I tried to find them but they were nowhere to be found and I couldn't just leave Austin that way... I continued searching for hours until I forgot my way back to my
AUSTIN'S POVI got out of bed and the first thing I did was look for Adrian but he was nowhere to be found in the room. I remembered everything that happened between us and the fact that I literally forced him into it so I wasn't angry at him at all. If there was someone I hated for the situation, it would be those fuckers that kidnapped me and brought me to that place. I put on my clothes and walked out of the room to check if he was in his room but to my surprise, he wasn't there either and when I was just about to call him, I saw the woman that brought us to the room last night. "Ma'am, did you see that guy?" I asked her directly. She looked at me for a moment before she smiled "You mean your friend?" She asked back and I rolled my eyes. "Not my friend. The guy I came with last night." I hated to call him my friend after what he did to my family and seeing someone call him my friend annoyed me to the core. The woman frowned "If he isn't your friend. Is he your boyfriend then?
AUSTIN'S POV "You should probably check your pocket very well or something. Wait, did those kidnappers take your phone?" The head of maids asked worriedly but I shook my head. I didn't think they would do such a thing. They looked rich enough to me and they weren't people who would take others phones. All they wanted was my money, they weren't even bothered about my background or anything else. "I should check where I spent the night maybe it would be there. Get someone to prepare another car for me, I need to change these clothes." I ordered before leaving for my room. Later, I went back to the inn where I saw my phone on the bed and we went from there to pick up my car before we returned home. On the way, I placed a call to Adrian, informing him that we needed to meet later in the evening and he agreed without questions. "Would you like to eat now?" One of the maids asked and I shook my head. Even though I was trying to pretend like I was alright, I knew I wasn't and food was
AUSTIN'S POV I jolted up from my seat and looked at him. When I saw him standing up, ready to leave, I was very happy as that was what I wanted him to do but hearing that gunshot, my heart jumped and the first thing I did was drag him back. "Austin! I know you're in there!" I suddenly heard a voice and I frowned. Was that my Austin or was it someone else bearing Austin?"Did you hear that?" Adrian asked and I nodded. "Yeah, but I don't think it's my Austin. How would I know people who use guns?" I asked Adrian coldly. How could he ask me that? It seemed he really wanted me to die!He shook his head "No matter what, you need to hide right now. We can't say if it's you or not." He advised, holding my hand but I threw his hand away and pushed him out of my way. "It can't be me!" I yelled at him. All my life, I had been living quietly with only two aims and that was to avenge my father's death on Adrian and to make my mother happy again. So, how on earth would I have gotten involved
AUSTIN'S POVI had no idea who was dragging me but I knew I had to follow the person. I found it hard to open my eyes as the fear in my heart was so huge, it was blinding. "Run! Run faster, Austin!" I heard a familiar voice in front of me and my face scrunched up. Adrian? I quickly opened my eyes and that was when I saw that we were in a room and he was already running in a direction "Will you continue waiting there until they break down the door and get to you? Are you really okay with dying here?" He asked me angrily as he glared at me. I was confused, I had no idea what was going on but before I could think about anything more, I heard the door cracking and I knew right then that the door would soon be broken. I quickly composed myself and ran toward Adrian "Where are we going?" I asked him quietly. "While I was here earlier, I tried looking for where I could escape from and that was when I found out about the underground building here. We just need to push away this thing a
AUSTIN'S POV Adrian pushed me away and held his lips "What was that?" He asked angrily. The look on his face was as if he was ready to give me a hard punch in the face. I smirked and pulled back, truth be told, I had no idea why I kissed him either and I knew I still had to think about the reason later but right then, there was something I needed to do. "I kissed you. Didn't you want it too? Why did you respond to the kiss if you didn't want it?" I asked him and he snorted. "You think I want you?" He asked with a mocking voice and I raised my brows. "Yes, You do," I replied arrogantly. "You wish. The first time we had something, it was you who instigated it. You forced me to your bed, Austin. The second time? You forced me again and you think I want you? Why would I?!" He yelled aggressively. I stared at his face for a few seconds and an evil smile appeared on my face "Let's see you pretend again after this." I provoked as I grabbed his collar and pulled him in. I looked at h
AUSTIN'S POV I couldn't believe my ears even when he was done saying the rubbish he just said. I looked at him without saying a single word for a while and I started laughing. "Wait, are you planning to become a comedian? What was that?" I asked, still laughing. "I don't know if you've forgotten or not but you and I are not friends and we never will. So, stop this silly prank and close that door before those men get here." I urged him desperately while also making sure he never found out the desperation in me. I was scared, so scared out of my wit but more than that, I needed to make him close the door because I knew the gunmen might have heard him when he shouted earlier and they might be on their way to us already. "What? Comedian? Let's see if you're right or wrong." He said as he took a few steps out of the room. "Hello! Austin Brad is here!!! Austin Brad is here!!!" He started shouting without stopping and my heart nearly stopped. I ran toward him but he held the knives out
