His lips neared mine and for a moment, I thought we were going to kiss. My lips followed his but he stepped back. I swallowed as my eyes remained glued to his face, I was scared of my gaze dropping lower. But I took bold steps forward to close the space between us. I could tell that he was surprised as he looked down at me. His fingers raised to my face and trailed my face slowly leaving a train of sweetness. He lifted my face up to his and sucked on my neck slowly. “What is it that you want Alana?” He asked me as he nibbled on my ears gently. Thrills moved down my spine and I could feel giddy and wanting already. I was already getting excited down there. “Tell me what you want.” His whisper came again. “I want you.” I whispered back weakly in a surrender. Alana is very shy and introverted but she has had her eyes set on the Most Popular Bad Boy, Atlas. Atlas is the boy every girl in Gold Valley City wants to have by all means but what happens when he notices and has his eye set a one good girl who is below his class? Will they build together an unbreakable bond amid societal and financial differences or will Alana’s submission be the begining to an unending rollercoaster of hurt and pain?
View More(ATLAS’S POV)Just as I expected, my parents were waiting for me as I made my way in to the house. I was headed straight for my room even though I knew that they wouldn’t let me, but I mean is there really anything wrong with giving it a try?“Atlas!” Andres my older brother called on my way up the second floor and I turned to see him leaned against the door of my dad’s private study.“Yes.” I answered grimly even though again, I really knew what he wanted.For me to come in and face whatever my parents had to say. Andres said but he also said nothing as he inclined his head towards the study room. I was expected to follow him as he turned around and walked back in so I did. Mum was pacing about looking the most angry I have ever seen her. Dad on the other hand was in his chair, cross legged with a grim, angry look on his face.Yup! I knew it, I was in trouble but I didn’t care. I was very happy about what I had done, in fact I felt lucky and fortunate that I had been able to do it
(LANA’S POV) Beautiful words, Wrong Place. I thought as I stared at Atlas. I was overwhelmed with so many emotions that I did not know what exactly to say or do.I just stood frozen to the spot as tears just kept on streaming endlessly down my face and this time around, they were not tears of sorrow. I have never had someone defend me in that way, neither have I had someone say such beautiful things about me. I was lost in his actions and drowned by his words.He stood up to his mother and said these words right in front of our parents. He was doing it for me.My heart was filled with so much joy and appreciation. Even after I sent him out of my room, he didn’t get angry with me.My thoughts were soon interrupted by Atlas’s mother who let out a dry cackle that did not reach her eyes at all. She stared back at him with disbelief in her eyes. “Is this some sort of joke?” She asked Atlas.“I’m not joking, Mum.” Her eyes widened slightly in shock and then a displeased look settled on
(LANA’S POV)It was like we were all in a boxing ring getting ready for an anticipated fight. Everyone seemed to be placed in strategic positions and I feared that things would heat up. Mum and Dad were visibly angry and Mrs Shaughnessy was obviously displeased as well. Mr Glass and I were the only ones who were not angry, we were uncomfortable and scared.I stood up to because everyone was standing and my body was shaking as tears crowded my eyes. Mr Glass was trying to conceal how stressed he was but I could sense it. He was uncomfortable but he was the first one to quickly voice his thoughts out slicing through the tension with a slight cough.“Why don’t we all sit down please? I promise we can talk about this better. We can settle this like grown, mature adults that we are.” He said with a shaky voice and a hopeful smile that fell flat amongst everyone in the room.No one even regarded him anymore. Mum and Nrs Shaughnessy were having a show down with their eyes. “I guess you a
(LANA’S POV)“We’re sorry, Lana.” Daisy whispered at me before she and Paige walked the opposite direction and I followed my parents to the principal’s office.I was not angry at my friends as I just said, disappointed maybe. We did not said a word to each other as the three of us sat down at the backseat of my dad’s car. I was too hurt to even say anything.Now, I felt more anxious as we followed the administrative building pathway that led us to the principal’s office.“You should be happy with your friends, Lana. They care about.” Dad tried. “They did not want that woman to walk all over you and that is why they came to tell us what was going on.”I nodded my head stiffly but I was not even paying close attention to what he was saying. I was thinking of what was going to happen once we were in the principal’s office.The secretary looked up with a polite smile which became shaky on her lips once she saw mum and dad’s expressions.“We are here to see Mr Glass, the principal. Is he i
(LANA’S POV)It seemed like my parents were getting angrier as the days went by. The next morning, I did not get the usual knock on my door telling me to hurry down for breakfast. I really don’t blame them, if I was them, I would be very angry with me as well .I encouraged myself by doing some morning affirmations while looking at myself in the mirror. I knew that a stressful day awaited me and I had to get myself ready for it.After taking a deep sigh, I got my backpack and led myself out of the room and down the hall. As I approached, I heard voices coming from the living room.My heart started racing as I thought about all the possible people who could come to my house this morning. The top of my list had to be Mrs Shaughnessy. Perhaps she found out that Atlas came to see me last night and it made her very furious. Maybe she was here to force me in to taking explication as my option. My throat was dry and my heart was racing as I walked towards the living room carefully with th
(ATLAS’S POV)Alana sobbed in my arms for a long time. It felt like my heart was breaking with each sob.I held her to myself trying not to tighten my grip, so I didn’t hurt her.I was angry, I missed her so much!She withdrew back suddenly and started to wipe her face gently with her hands. Then she got off to the bed and got herself a napkin that was on her reading table.“You can’t just come in here whenever you like, you know?” She said to me.Her voice was tired but angry as well.I crossed over to her but she moved backwards. Her eyes were flashing in hurt and anger,“I waited for you! I waited for a message from you!” She said trying not to choke back. “I tried to get to you. I sent my young brother with -““No, Stop please.” She said gently but with a firm command so stern that I felt the words hanging on my tongue. “I would like for you to just leave my room, please.” She said to me.I could see that she was looking down and she was avoiding my eyes.“I had no way of gettin
(ATLAS’S POV)The silence in the dining room was deafening and I could feel everyone’s eyes on me. Not only that, Valerie’s hands were still placed on my thighs and that seemed to be the most annoying thing at the moment. I gently lifted her hand from my thigh and placed it down. Then I smoothed my clothes and pushed back the plate of food that was before me.“I said that I won’t be taking Valerie Wilson to the ball.” I stated in a very clear tone. There was a wave of shock that passed around the table and settled on everyone’s faces.“Don’t be rude, Atlas.” Mum said in a flat tone and then she turned to Jean Wilson and smiled at her. “Atlas has been so disoriented with all that was going on.”“Oh!” Jean Wilson said hurriedyly as she tried to lessen the tension in the room. “I heard all about that and so I understand. That low class girl is trying to pull your name through the mud!”“Exactly what I said!” Mum said immediately. “Atlas has been so destabilised with all that has been g
(ATLAS’S POV)There was knocking at my door again, for what seemed to be the hundredth time but was only the third time.And then Mum’s voice came.“Atlas, if you don’t open up now, I’ll have you locked in for a whole month and heavily guarded as well! You won’t be able to go anywhere!” She said to me.She hit the right spot! This was wrong! She was keeping me locked in against my will! I had turned to a prisoner but defying her would only bring worse to me. I know my mother very well and I know that she does not joke when she threatens, especially when it’s something that she is invested in.Like handling what she would call ‘A Social Scandal’ I stood up and walked over to the door turning the key in the lock and going back to my bed where I sat down.Mum came in. She looked beautiful dressed in one of her expensive dresses and jewelled like she has a huge occasion to attend. To make matters more annoying, she was smiling at me warmly.“Hello Darling.” She said making her way over t
(LANA’S POV)“Omg! I can’t believe she said that!” Paige said plopping down beside me on the grass in frustration.“Yup! She did!” I said as it hit me all over again.The meeting I had had with Mrs Shaughnessy was still very fresh in my brain and I was trying my best to calm down even though i knew that I was panicking. “This is so messed up!” Daisy said frustrated. My friends and I had skipped the last class of the day for several reasons. To start with, we were all drained from the events that were occuring and dad said I had to be out the gate immediately school was over so it was either then or never for us to reconnect. Lunch time had been out of the question because Paige had to get ready for a tech quiz she had coming up. We had perfect records and so missing one class was not going to affect us. At this point, I did not mind missing a whole of school if I was being very honest.“This is all so messed up!” I repeated with a very deep sigh. We were seated outside school a
(LANA'S POV) I am very familiar with the popular saying that no one is perfect. But that happens to be a big lie because I know someone who is the most perfect being on earth. His name is Atlas Shaughnessy and I have been writing and daydreaming about him from the first day I saw him. That was the first day I walked in to the cafeteria nervously clutching my tray on my first day in Golden Child's High. He was sitting with the most nonchalant look on his perfect face. It wasn't hard to find out who he was considering everyone had his name on their lips. Atlas is the third out of five sons of Mr Maverick Shaughnessy, a business tycoon and the richest man in Golden valley city. Mr Shaughnessy owns several productive companies in the country and as I have mentioned earlier, he has five handsome sons. Their names are Andres, Alderson, Atlas, Adrian and Avril. They are like young gods of Gold Valley city. They have the looks, the wealth and the class. Atlas is my mate in scho...
