Chapter 6

Scarlett Wolff

Are you alright?

Lucien's worried face had welcomed me last night as I opened the door for him when he knocked. My scream was so loud while I was playing with myself that he heard me from his room. You can imagine the level of embarrassment I felt at that moment, but thankfully, I was able to brew a lie so quickly.

My stomach grumbled angrily the moment I heard that woman's voice as she descended the staircase along with Lucien. She was fully dressed, so I guessed she would be leaving soon. Thank goodness.

My heart fluttered when I set eyes on my charming fantasy, looking all hot in his black outfit. Gosh! The little part of his chest revealed made me hot in between my legs, the thought of running my fingers through his chest while drawing invisible lines on it made me wet down there.

“Good morning, Scarlett,” the woman smiled at me broadly, her face looking bright like something good happened last night. Oh, yeah. Something good must've happened between them last night. And what the fuck was good about the morning when that bitch is here?

“Hmm…” I hummed, turning to Lucien with a smile on my face as I said. “Good morning, Sir. I made breakfast,”

“I'm heading out, Scarlett. Go ahead and eat without me,” his words cut deep through my heart like a dagger. He gave me a smile that lasted for split seconds before disappearing. And as if he didn't notice the sadness on my face, he left without sparing me a glance.

My heart sank into my stomach, my eyes stung with tears building in them, and I didn't try to hold them back as I allowed them fall freely down my cheeks.

I rushed to the window to watch them hopping inside the car, and all I felt was anger and jealousy.

My attention was drawn away by the sound of my ringing phone, and I rolled my eyes as I brought it out of my pocket, and I rolled my eyes when I saw when I saw that it was my best friend, Alexa. I couldn't bring myself to ignore her call, so I took it and held the phone to my ear.

“Hey! Where the hell are you? I came over to the house but you were nowhere to be found. Have you forgotten we have lectures today?” Her angry voice sounded from the other end, and the realisation dawned on me that it was the beginning of a new session in the school, and I needed to be there since lectures was starting right away. Yes, I'm still a student. In my finals in college, actually.

“Ugh!” I groaned, hurrying to the staircase. Heaven knows that I didn't have plans of leaving the house today, but I didn't have a choice now.

“You can go ahead, Alex. I'll meet you in school,” I ended the call as I made my way into my room. It took me an hour and a half to get ready for school, and once I was done, I grabbed my bag and dashed out of the house. Since I didn't bring my car to stay with me here, I was left with the only choice of boarding a cab to school. I was too annoyed that I didn't even bother to inform Mr. Lucien about it before leaving.

I could barely concentrate on my way to the school as my mind was clouded by the thought of Mr. Lucien and that bitch he was with earlier. The thought of them being on the bed, kissing, and maybe fucking each other made my skin crawl. How could he do this to me? I've been keeping myself for him for years, I never gave any man an access to my body, how could he fuck any woman like it was nothing?

“We are here, Ms,” came the cab man's voice, and I realised that he was already pulled over in front of my school, Queen's university.

Alexa was just stepping out of her car by the time I walked inside the school spacious compound. The garage had many cars parked in it. This was a prestigious school that only rich kids attends, so almost every single students has a car or two. Any student who didn't have a car was probably their choice, or the scholarship students.

“The hell, Scarlett! Where is your car?” Alexa shrieked, her eyes widening as soon as she set eyes on me. She was graced in a pair of blue jean trousers, pink crop top, and a pair of white sneakers. Her blonde hair was packed up in two tight buns.

“My goodness! You look pale. Are you sick? Do you want me to take you to the infirmary?” She placed a hand on my forehead, asking with concern.

“I'm fine, Alex. Let's go to class,” Unlike every other day that I would joke around with her, I didn't feel like it today. I was overwhelmed by what happened today and ended up neglecting my best friend without even knowing it.

I walked ahead of her while she followed me, trying to catch up with me.

“Come on, Scarlett. Can you talk to me? You are scaring me. You don't look fine and you are going to keep it to yourself? What happened?” She didn't give up asking me as she followed me until we got inside the class, and thankfully, the lecturer was already in class. My seat was already occupied by another student, so I had to make do with the vacant seat. Thankfully, Alexa found somewhere else to sit since it was only a seat available where I went to sit.

I could barely concentrate during the lecture, and after what seemed like eternity, it finally ended.

“Hey!” I rolled my eyes when I heard the familiar annoying masculine voice behind me. It was Derek, the school hottie whom I didn't find hot. The only person who was hot to me was Lucien and nobody else. Derek has been on my neck since year one, and he still hasn't given up even after telling him countless times that I wasn't interested.

“Hey, Scarlett. Do you want to have lunch with me later?” He came to stand in front of me, his pair of grey eyes piercing at me, a grin spread across his lips, revealing his set of white teeth. The smile every lady in school would die to see, but I find it attractive.

“No, Derek. I'm not interested,” I told him point blank…
