Jeremy pov:
It's been a whole week since the accident, and I finally got discharged yesterday. Luckily, it wasn't a major accident, so I didn't suffer any serious wounds.
I knew Steve and his gang would be waiting for me, ready to make fun of me again. It wasn't the physical pain that hurt the most, but the constant taunting and bullying that had become a part of my daily routine.
Despite my injury, I knew I couldn't afford to miss school. Grades were my top priority. Some might call me a nerd for that, but I wore that label with pride.
I didn't have much of an appetite, so I settled for a glass of milk before heading out. As I got into my black Ferrari, I couldn't shake off the feeling of dread that had been weighing me down. I knew I had to face Steve eventually, but the thought of him making fun of me in front of everyone terrified me to no end. I revved up the engine and headed out early, trying to avoid Steve.
As I arrived at the school, I headed to the back of the building and settled myself under a tree. Normally, I would go to the terrace and listen to music, but the memory with Steve still lingers there, and I can't bear to face it. I decided to take out the novel I've been reading lately.
It's a romantic and erotic book, which I secretly love to read, and no one, not even Oliver, knows about it. I was completely engrossed in the book, oblivious to my surroundings. My mouth was open like a jellyfish as I read through an exciting scene.
Suddenly, someone snatched the book from my hands, and I looked up in frustration. I hated being disturbed while reading. It was Steve, and I felt embarrassed that he caught me reading such a book.
I stood up, trying to retrieve the book, but he held it high above my head. I couldn't reach it. As I tried to stretch to grab it, I lost my balance and fell onto Steve's chest. He caught me by the waist and pulled me closer to him. With one hand holding the book, he looked into my eyes, and we were dangerously close. I couldn't help but gulp, feeling a sudden rush of emotions.
"What are you reading, baby boy?" Steve whispered into my ear, his breath sending shivers down my spine.
I looked up to see his piercing blue eyes staring back at me.
"It's... It's nothing." I stuttered, feeling my cheeks heat up with embarrassment.
I pushed his hands away, trying to put some distance between us. I could see a little bit of sadness in his eyes but I didn't care.
"Give my book back, Steve." I said.
"What's so interesting about this book is that you are reading it with your mouth open. Let me see." He smirked, his eyes scanning the pages of my book.
"Steve don't you dare." I said, feeling a mix of anger and embarrassment.
He eagerly opened the book and dived into the pages, while I tried to sneakily snatch it from him. But to my surprise, he held my hands tightly with one hand, not letting me have my way. I tried to push him away, but he was too strong for me to handle. Finally, I gave up and let him read.
"His large calloused hands massaging her breasts and groping her ass." He read out with a smirk.
"Steve, don't," I whispered, feeling embarrassed.
"Wow, baby boy. I never knew you were this naughty," he teased, grinning.
"Give me my book back," I demanded, trying to wriggle out of his grip.
"I want to read more," he said, his eyes still glued to the book.
"He slid a hand between her legs, and spread her thighs wider..." He got cut off by me.
"Steve, stop it!" I shouted, feeling more and more embarrassed by the second.
"I can make those real for you. You don't need to feel pressure to read them," he whispered in my ear, his breath tickling my skin.
"No... It's not that..." I tried to explain, but he wouldn't listen.
"Don't try to deny it. You want it," he smirked, pulling me closer to him.
"Leave me alone, Steve!" I screamed, struggling against his grip but he was too strong for me to break free.
My heart was pounding as he came closer to me, his teeth grazing my ear. Despite the fear that gripped me, I couldn't help but feel a strange sensation, as if his touch had ignited something inside me. His eyes met mine, and they were dark and intense, sending shivers down my spine. I could feel his erection pressing against me, and I couldn't help but gulp nervously.
Suddenly, we were interrupted by the sound of students chattering nearby. Steve quickly pulled away, his face turning as red as a tomato. He refused to meet my gaze as he stammered out a quick goodbye before walking away.
I couldn't shake off the feeling that something had changed between us. He had humiliated me in front of everyone by posting that video, but here we were, lost in our own little moment. It was so confusing.
I scolded myself for letting my guard down. After all, he was my bully, the one who had posted that humiliating video of me. I should have hated him. I hit my head with my hands, trying to push away the confusing thoughts as I continued walking to class.
The final bell rang and I hesitated to leave the classroom. I knew what awaited me outside; a group of bullies, ready to pounce on me. I waited for everyone to leave, but it seemed like they were taking their own sweet time. As I was lost in my thoughts, I suddenly felt something cold and wet dripping on my head. I gasped in shock and looked back to see Steve's friends, grinning at me. They had poured water on me. My shirt was soaked, and my skin was visible from underneath. I felt a pang of embarrassment and shame wash over me.
"Missed school for a week? You fat idiot!" Luca's voice thundered as I shivered from my wet shirt, trying to explain my absence.
"I...I met with an accident. I was at the hospital," I stammered, hoping for some sympathy.
"You are so dumb, piggy," he spat out.
Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, another boy chimed in with a crude remark.
"I saw the video, Jeremy. You look so sexy. But bad luck, I am straight."
Luca was silent for a moment, his face betraying a tinge of sadness. It was then that I realized something unusual. Luca didn't join in the mockery. This was strange because he was always the one to make fun of me in everything.
I think it had something to do with Steve. They shared everything and helped each other out of trouble. I could tell that Luca didn't want to make fun of me because it would also mean he was making fun of his best friend.
My heart sank at the realization that some people only care about their close ones. They don't mind hurting others, as long as they don't hurt their loved ones.
Luca was caught off guard as Steve barged into the classroom, his face twisted in anger.
"Luca, what are you doing?" Steve bellowed, his voice echoing through the room.
Luca tried to explain, but Steve wouldn't let him get a word in edgewise. With a fierce glare, Steve grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the classroom,
"what I had gotten myself into..."
Jeremy pov:As Steve dragged me towards the unused classrooms, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. The classroom had been abandoned for years due to a fire. I shuddered as Steve turned to face me with a cold, unyielding stare."If he kills me, no one would hear my screams." I thought to myself.I couldn't ignore the sense of fear that crept up on me as we stood there in the eerie silence."I'm sorry, Jer," he said, and I couldn't help but be shocked by his words."What do you mean?" I asked, completely taken aback."I'm sorry for the way Luca and my other friends treated you," he continued. "It wasn't right."I couldn't help but roll my eyes at his words. "It's not like you were any better, Steve," I retorted. "You were the one who started it all. Those nicknames? Yeah, that was all you. So why are you apologizing now? It's a litt
Jeremy pov:I pulled Oliver into my car, and everyone around us fell silent. Steve and a few other students watched us with a mix of curiosity and concern.I wasn't mad at either of them, but at myself for causing more fight between the brothers. Although I despised Steve for what he did to me, I knew it was my problem to deal with. Oliver, on the other hand, shouldn't have said what he did to his brother.Despite my best efforts to bring them closer, I always seemed to fail. And now, seeing them fight over me, I was starting to lose my mind.As we sat in my room, Oliver was visibly upset. He hadn't said a word to me since I slapped him, and even during the drive home, he was quiet. I could tell he was still angry that his friend had taken the bully's side, but he shouldn't have said Steve didn't deserve to live. That was a harsh thing to say, and I needed to find a way to make thin
Jeremy pov:*Next day*It's gym class today and I'm feeling a mix of emotions. I used to dread coming here because of Steve. But Oliver is in the class, things are a little better.Steve's bullying used to be the worst part of my day, but now it's the bickering between Steve and Oliver.Even though I've tried to give Steve a second chance, I still can't stand him. It's hard to forget what he did to me, and the bullies still tease and make fun of me about the video. But I don't let it get me down for too long. I feel sad about it, sure, but I don't want to dwell on it and let it control my life.The coach's announcement startled me, pulling me out of my thoughts. "Today we're doing a relay race! Get ready and check your partner in the book," he yelled.I rushed to the book and started flipping through its pages, hoping and praying that I wouldn't be pair
Steve pov:"I can't resist kissing you, my baby boy. And I don't think I want to." With a sly smile, I whispered into his ear.I gazed down at his face, his body sprawled beneath me. My eyes searched for answers, his pupils were shaking with confusion. "Steve..." he whispered, trying to say something.I leaned in closer, my breath hot on his skin. "Tell me, Jer. Do you want me to kiss you?" I teased, watching as he slowly nodded his head."Very well," I said, leaning in even closer. "With your mouth, yes or no?" His answer was barely a whisper, but the desire in his eyes was unmistakable. "Yes."I couldn't resist moving closer to him, feeling the heat of his body against mine. His lips were an irresistible temptation, so soft and inviting. Slowly, I let my hands wander down his body, lifting his shirt to reveal his toned stomach. My fingers traced his abs, feeling the muscles beneath my touch. I could feel his excitement building. I pressed my lips firmly against his, seeking permi
Steve pov:The blood in my veins boiled as I stepped forward, my voice shaking with fury."How dare you hurt my brother," I roared at the group of bullies.The crowd around us fell silent, their eyes locked on us as they recorded the scene on their phones.My fist connected with a bully's face in a satisfying thud, sending a jolt of energy through my arm.Another bully appeared and blocked my way, trying to stop me from hitting. I felt a wave of anger surge through me and I couldn't help but lash out.I started hitting him with all my might, releasing all the pent-up frustration in me. Blow after blow landed on his face, but he didn't back down.Just as I was about to deliver the final blow, Luca intervened and shouted, "Steve, stop!"His voice brought me back to my senses and I realized that I
Jeremy pov:As Steve left the room, my mind was overwhelmed with thoughts of his gentle touch and the softness of his lips on mine. I lay in bed, tossing and turning, trying to rid myself of these distracting thoughts. Not in the mood to attend classes, I decided to skip and headed home. Upon texting Oliver, I received no reply, and when I called, his phone was switched off. The anxiety began to build up inside me, but I tried to remain composed.Suddenly, the sound of the doorbell interrupted my thoughts. Rushing down the stairs, I eagerly opened the door, hoping to see Oliver. To my surprise, it was Steve and Maggie who stood at the entrance.Although I felt a tinge of disappointment, my spirits lifted as I saw Maggie. Without hesitation, she ran into my arms and gave me a tight embrace. We laughed and spun around in joy until finally, I let her go. Looking up, I caught Steve's gaze, and his smile warmed my heart.I couldn't believe that Maggi was finally here, after all thes
Oliver pov:"I can't believe you hurt Jeremy!" I shouted at the group of men standing before me, my anger blazing hot.They cowered before me, heads bowed in submission.It was a heady feeling, knowing that even though these men were older and stronger than me, they were afraid of me.After all, I owned them now, Sebastian had sold them to me, and their lives were in my hands."You should have known better," I said, my voice cold and commanding."Jeremy is my love, my everything. How could you not recognize him?""We're sorry, master," one of them stammered, groveling at my feet."You all know the deal. Sebastian sold you to me, and now you belong to me. Your lives are mine to do with as I please."The men fell to the ground, begging for mercy. It was a satisfying sight, watching
Third person pov:"You've got to be kidding me!" Jeremy exclaimed, unable to believe what he was hearing.Steve stood in shock, feeling his jaw drop as he tried to make sense of the reason why the most influential mafia leader in Russia would want to cause harm to him.He couldn't fathom why someone at such a level of power would take an interest in him. His mind raced as he tried to piece together any possible reason for ending up on the wrong side of this dangerous man.The weight of the situation bore down on him as he struggled to recall any actions or words that might have led to this mess."I don't understand, Maggie. How could I have possibly gotten on the bad side of the Russian mafia king when he doesn't even know I exist?" Steve asked, frustration evident in his voice.Maggie shook her head, equally puzzled."I'm try
Jeremy pov:I pushed him away, feeling disgusted by being near him. His face fell, but in an instant, he put on a smile.“How are you, jer?’’ he asked me.“I'm so good. and it's Jeremy for you." I replied coldly.“So you are still angry at me…” he said, hanging his head low.As he settled into a chair, his hands secured to the table with handcuffs, I took a seat opposite him, our eyes locking in a tense, charged silence."Talk to me, Jeremy. Please," he begged, his eyes pleading with mine.I slammed my hands on the table, causing Oliver to jump back in surprise."Why should I speak with you? I'll be angry with you until my last breath. What you did... It's not a game, Oliver. You hurt us, hurt everyone who loves you. And yet, we still feel sorry for leaving you alone here. That's our weakness. When I came here, I was scared, because seeing you reminds me of all the horrible things you did to me and your mother..." A tear rolled down my cheek as I spoke.Oliver's sorrowful expression d
Jeremy pov:***Three Year Later***"JEREMY!! WAKE UP!!" The shout jolted me awake, and I rubbed my eyes, groaning in pain as I got up from the ground."Why did you sleep on the ground?" Steve asked, concern in his voice."I fell down, you can call me slowly, no need to shout," I retorted, still feeling groggy."Sorry," Steve apologized, coming close and wrapping his arms around my waist, pulling me towards him."I made breakfast for you," he said softly."Thanks," I smiled, giving him a quick peck on the lips."Freshen up and come down. Mom, Dad, Mr. and Mrs. Bernard are waiting too," he informed me."Ok, sir," I teased and went to grab my clothes."I'm going!" he shouted before leaving my room.I stepped into the shower and cranked the faucet, feeling the cold water rush over my skin.Life is finally good and peaceful. We're all still recovering from the past traumas, especially Mrs. Hamilton and me. We've started seeing a therapist, and it's been helping a lot.Steve has been my roc
Jeremy pov:As I watched in terror, my heart skipped a beat as Steve crumpled to the ground, blood staining the spot where he had been shot. I rushed over to his side, desperately trying to rouse him."Steve, please wake up! Don't you dare leave me!" I cried out, clinging to his limp form.His eyes remained shut, his complexion turning pale. Oliver stood there, laughing like a heartless monster. He had pulled the trigger, taking the life of my beloved, his very own brother. At that moment, I realized I could despise him no more than I did already. Today, I longed for nothing more than to end his existence.As I stared up at Oliver, his twisted grin etched deeply into my memory, I couldn't shake off the sick pleasure that gleamed in his eyes. He revelled in the pain he had caused, and in that moment, I silently vowed to myself that he wouldn't get away with it. I was determined to make him pay for the anguish he had inflicted upon everyone around him."I'll end you, Oliver," I seethed,
Jeremy pov:In the dimly lit alley, Steve's heart was pounding like a drum, he held me close, my breath warm against his neck. With every step, the sound of his footsteps echoed like a haunting melody. Shadows danced around us as we were running out of the building.My heart was beating loudly, and I was still in shock, one minute everything was ok, but the next minute everything was a mess and we were running for our lives keeping Maggie's life at stake. I felt frustrated for feeling helpless and became weak because of Oliver. I trained hard to face this situation but the trauma is making me weak.The gunshots around the building made me even more scared, Steve's grip on my arm tightened, his fingers digging into my flesh, a silent reassurance that we were in this together.“I will not let anything happen to you, Jerry,” Steve said breathing heavily.I couldn't form words as I just closed my eyes, but suddenly Steve stopped in the way. My gaze was fixed on the ground, and when Steve
Jeremy pov:As soon as I opened my eyes, I felt the warm sun rays on my face. I stretched my limbs and pushed the blanket away. Feeling a bit groggy, I made my way to the bathroom. With half-opened eyes, I turned the shower on and let the water cascade over my body. It was such a blissful feeling that I wished I could stay there forever.I picked up the shampoo and lathered my hair. The scent of lavender filled up the steamy room. I took my time to rinse my hair and let the water wash away all the stress from my body. Finally, I turned the faucet off and wrapped the towel around my hips.As I walked into the room, I caught Steve's gaze. He was sitting on the bed, his eyes tracing every curve of my body. I couldn't help but smirk at his expression. His cheeks were flushed, and he looked away, embarrassed. "Why are you here?" I asked, trying to keep my poker face on."There is an important matter to discuss, everyone is waiting for you," he replied while avoiding eye contact and stari
Oliver pov:My voice echoed through the hallway as I shouted at the group of men, "What the hell do you think you are doing?"The men quickly lowered their heads in apology, "Sorry, boss. We are sorry."I clenched my fists, struggling to contain my anger as I walked past them. I made a mental note to remember their faces. They would surely face consequences for mocking me.How could they even think that I backstabbed Sebastian and took his kingdom? I had worked tirelessly to earn my place as the rightful ruler, and I wasn't going to let anyone question my authority.As I made my way towards my office room, my heart was pounding with anticipation. I couldn't wait to check on my beloved Jeremy and see how he was doing.I sat down on my chair, took a deep breath, and opened my laptop. But what I saw on the screen left me reeling.Jeremy was at the gym, and Steve had kissed him without his consent. My heart sank as I read the details of what had happened. Jeremy had been caught off guard,
Jeremy pov:The struggle is real. Whenever his skin brushes against mine, it sets off an inferno inside me that I cannot seem to quell. Despite knowing that I should resist his advances, his kisses are so irresistible, making it impossible for me to keep my guard up.Whenever he moves closer, my heart starts to race, and my resolve crumbles with each passing moment. It's as if he has some kind of mysterious power over me that I cannot resist.“Steve…” I try to protest, to tell him to stop, but my voice fails me every time. His lips on my neck make me lose myself, and I find myself entangled in his hair, surrendering to his touch. It's a constant battle between my head and my heart, and at this moment, my heart is winning the war.As I uttered his name, "Steve...", the air around us seemed to crackle with electrifying energy. Standing before me, Steve was the epitome of temptation, his every touch, every caress of his lips on my skin, held me captive in a way that was both thrilling
Jeremy pov:The next few days felt like an endless cycle of sadness and confusion. Every moment seemed to weigh me down with the heaviness of what had happened. The images of betrayal kept playing over and over in my mind, like a broken record that refused to stop. My heart felt like it had been shattered into a million pieces, and I didn't know if I could ever put it back together again.Just as I was lost in my thoughts, I heard a knock on my door. I got up to answer it and found Luca and Maggie standing outside, looking concerned. I tried to put on a brave face and gave them a fake smile, but I knew they could see through it."Yeah, what do you want, guys?" I asked, not really sure who was on the other side."We want to talk to you about Steve," Luca said, his voice sounding tense."I don't know who he is," I replied, feeling a little irritated."Don't talk like that, jer. Please listen to what he has to say. There's been a misunderstanding," Maggie interjected, trying to calm the
Jeremy pov:"Hey, what video are you talking about, Maggie?" I asked, curious about what she wanted to show me."Come here," she said, motioning me to sit beside her on the sofa.As she connected her phone to the TV, I watched the blank screen, wondering what could be so important. But then, Oliver's face appeared, and my heart skipped a beat. I couldn't believe my eyes, Oliver was supposed to be dead!Despite what Steve and everyone else had told me, I was now seeing him right in front of me, alive and well. It was a moment of pure shock and disbelief, one that I'll never forget.As soon as Oliver's voice echoed through the speakers, my heart skipped a beat. I could feel my skin crawl as his words sank in."I've missed you so much, Jer. I wish I could hold you right now," he said, his tone filled with longing.My mind raced with fear as I heard his words. My hands trembled uncontrollably until Maggie took hold of my hand, calming me down."Jer, I've missed our daily talks. I wish we
