Learning Her Lesson Chapter 20
IRISI listened to him lecture me about the importance of school, sorta. All I could really do was feel the aftershocks from my orgasms. He made me feel like the sexiest woman alive. He made me feel good on the inside and on the outside. I smiled at him while he talked, and he shook his head at me. "Iris I am serious. I will not be able to continue this relationship if you allow it to affect your career." When he said that I felt my heart sink. "Are you wanting to rid yourself of me professor?" I said more sharply than I intended. He walked over to me and grabbed my chin, roughly, but not violently. "I never want to rid myself of you Iris, but I will be adding a few rules involving school. If you do not make it to your scheduled classes because you want to stay here, or want to be close to me, I won’t allow you here for the next 3 days." I rolled my eyes, and he growled. "Don’t roll your eyes baby girl. That is not something you want to do right now." I giggled and he reached for my h

RykerMy heart is pounding while I watch the light slowly turn green. I never bring out my 57' Aston Martin, but I wasn’t about to allow Deacon to leave her alone after that damn note. Why are they doing this now? I know they are trying to scare her away from me. Only a week in, but I couldn’t lose her now. She stirs things inside of me I didn’t know could be stirred. Makes me feel things I never thought I could, Genuine happiness, amusement, other things I won’t allow myself to admit. I can’t lose her now. I can’t. I will park in a parking garage and walk the rest of the way. This car is such a showboat, I don’t want to get that much attention. Deacon was going to convince her to go for a walk and get some fresh air. She was thoroughly freaked out by everything. He had already talked to everyone, pretending to be a detective. Apparently, some young boy gave the note to the Mage girl and told her to give it to Iris. He told her he had a crush, and she thought Iris had seemed so off, a

IRISI ran as fast as I could until I ran out of breath, stopping, and wiping the few tears coming from my eyes. I had left Ohio and all that it entailed behind. I couldn't let this man bring danger and hurt into my life. I had to focus on my schooling, get a badass attorney position, and move away from Long Beach. I don't understand what is happening, no, I didn't give him time to explain. "Hand in many cookie jars" and "They want to destroy me" gave me all the answers I needed. I don't want to be a part of whatever cookies he shouldn't have been reaching for. I started to walk instead of run, somewhat shocked that Deacon wasn't chasing after me. After a week though, I'm sure Ryker won't even notice my absence. I closed my eyes tightly forcing out the remaining tears, and promised myself no more would fall. The tunnel was only about a 15-minute walk from the university. I don't know how he found that place, I would have to go out there and take some photos for my club. I think we have

RykerDeacon called to tell me the dorm was set on fire. He didn't know why yet but was working closely with the police and campus security to figure it out. No one was hurt, thank god. What the hell is going on? Why would someone be coming after her like that? I was furious, and scared, but mostly pissed off. "I will kill someone if she gets hurt Deac, They will be dead instantly." I said feeling my anger increasing."You gotta calm down boss, I am sure it was some stupid college kid playing with a candle or something." He said with a nervous laugh. His laugh told me he wasn't so sure, and neither was I. Iris hadn't said anything to him yet. She wasn't blaming me so far. I was dazing off while I drove so much that I wasn't sure how I had already made it to the city. I pulled up to my dad's office and just stared at the building. It made me physically ill to think about walking inside. I left that door with no intention of ever walking back through it. He doesn't own me anymore. I put m

IRISWhen I received the text on my phone, my eyes got misty. It told me that I was happy to hear from him. It told me that his effect on me wasn't going to leave anytime soon. Deacon was following me around all evening until I came back to my dorm which was after they cleared it for us to come back. Nothing of mine was affected, but I spent some time helping others with theirs. I hadn't spoken to Mage about what happened yet. I wasn't ready to talk to her. I knew she would have questions about the note, and I didnt want to answer them. I didn't message Ryker back automatically even though I wanted to. I thought it would make me look desperate. I looked at the message again. It seemed scatterbrained, nervous, and not really what I was used to getting from him. Deacon told me he had headed to the city for a while. I don't know why, and I shouldn't care. I told him I couldn't be a part of this, and I meant it. Didnt I? Why does chaos always seem to follow me around? When I was younger, w
Learning Her Lesson Chapter 25
RykerWhen I received a text from Deacon telling me what Iris had asked him to do, well more where she was asking him to take her, I was instantly enraged. Not really with her, but with myself. I gave her a taste of something I knew she was needing in her life, and then whoever this stalker is, fucked it up. She is going out to look for what I introduced her to. I have no excuse to be Jealous, but I am. I could feel the green seeping from my pores. I drove back to the home, the one I despise, and called Deacon's phone. When I said her name, it was completely silent. "Hello?" Finally, I heard her soft voice. "Please don't go to that club," I said as nicely as I could muster. I was trying not to tell her what to do. "Come here, to the city, come and see me." I didn't even think about it when I said it. Silence again. I heard Deacon ask her what she wanted to do. She yelled at him for telling me what she was doing and threatened to get out of the car. He apologized, sorta, but told her he

IRISHe was looking at me like I was sick or something. "Who is Ivy?" I asked again. I heard her name mentioned when all this started and I wanted to know who she was. Why she had something to do with all of this? "She was my last sub before I moved out of the city." He said subconsciously looking around the room. She must have been here with him at some point. "Is that who sent me the note?" I asked quietly feeling like I was interrupting his memory. "No, it wasn't Ivy," he said with a sudden look of sadness on his face. "Are you sure? The message sounded like it came from a woman?" I said, thinking the message sounded very personal. "I can tell you for certain, your note didn't come from Ivy Sweetheart." This time he had a stoic look on his face. "Okay," I said softly deciding not to push it any further. I watched his emotions unfold before my eyes. He changed from stoic to sad and then suddenly he was angry. "The man I put in prison before I decided to come teach ran a club, The Pun
Learning Her Lesson Chapter 27
RykerWe raced to get dressed and to get out to my car. She was shocked by my car, but I didn't think much of it. It was just a car. I was worried about Deacon. He has been by my side for so long he is more like family to me. They didn't know much when they called me. The only thing she told me was that someone ran him off the road in the city and he was en route to the hospital. She was so upset I couldn't hardly understand that much. I drove faster than usual, trying to get there as quickly as possible. If he needs a specialist, if he needs money or power. I need to be there. He stays under the surface. People in this city know me though, they know the name Lorcane holds domain over others here. I glanced over at Iris, trying to get a feel for her reaction to this. She was solid, not frigid, but steadfast staring out the window. She looked brave and strong compared to my wavering state. "Iris, I am sorry you have to deal with this," I said slowly looking straight ahead. She didn't sp
