Wendy's POV.

"That asshole!" I cussed angrily and pushed the hefty book award from me. I've been trying to solve a particular calculus problem and the more I try, the harder it gets from me.

Why does he have to be my mathematics professor?!

"Chill girl, you're burning up," May said and I grumbled before turning to her.

She was lying on the bed, tapping her phone and smiling... She's living her life and having fun but here I am, trying to solve a mathematical problem that doesn't seem to have a solution.

Oh, Lord! My life's ruined for real!!

"Don't tell me to chill, I've been up all night while you were snoring and mumbling incoherent words all night, don't even start with me!" I huffed and palmed my face, my head was throbbing in pain and it was all because of math.

"C'mon girl, don't be so hard on me, I tried to help you but you should know that I'm terrible at math, you're way better than me. I'm sorry." She said softly and I just looked at her wearily.

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 22: First Task.

    Wendy's POV. "Oh, Lord!" I let out a shocked exclamation as I stared at the mail that just popped up on my tablet. "What's wrong?" May asked, shifting closer to me and I showed her the mail. "Oh well, the professor was definitely angered by your absence." She said with a chuckle and I gave her a deathly glare. "Just shut up," I muttered angrily, stabbing the toasted bread with the fork in my hand as I stared at the mail. The man sure has a death sentence for me cause how the fuck was I supposed to solve seventy questions before the next class, am I some sort of machine? These aren't just simple calculations, they're... Oh, fuck it! I really hate him. "He's a jerk!" I cussed and I saw May nodding affirmatively. "He's definitely one, I am pretending to love math because of him, if he's gonna be giving such assignments, I do not want anything to do with him." She agreed and stuffed some cabbage in her mouth."It's too much, this is fucking too much." I rant, almost at the edge of

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 23: Late.

    Wendy's POV. "It was so fun right?" One of May's friends shrieked excitedly and I turned to give her a venomous look that shut her up almost immediately. I'm trying to solve mathematics here and all they do is rant. Turning to May, I pleaded, "Please May, take your friends somewhere and make the noise you wanna make. I'm trying to focus here, you know I don't have all day for this, I only have till eleven to submit this, May."She gave me a guilty look but I turned away to face my book before she'd mumble her apology.I can't stay in class because it's too boisterous, the libraries in the school are undergoing some major changes and hence, it's locked and the only quiet place I found to finish my assignment was intruded on by May and her group of lousy friends. My weekend was a beehive of activities, my job, reading for the upcoming exam and the test we are having today were insane, and then the professor made things worse by asking me to submit the assignment at our next meeting.

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 24: Decreased To Increase.

    Wendy's POV. Taking slow strides, he halted a few feet away from me, his Cologne teasing my senses and body, he towered over me despite not being so close to me, his question had gotten me on high alert and it stinks that I didn't know how to answer him. I was already very tired which makes it difficult for me to think straight but having him so close to me was turning the little thinking capability I have left into muss. He was still calling me a princess, he knows my heritage so why the fuck does he keep asking? Why can't he just accept the fact that he knows and leave me alone? I'm no longer the princess of the Havon kingdom, I was dethroned and banished from the kingdom, I'm pretty sure he knows that but it looks like he wants me to agree to it and that's what I'll not do. "Answer me, princess, what kind of punishment should I award you?" He asked again, his deep masculine voice teasing my sanities."I'm sorry, it was... It really wasn't my fault." I tried to clarify but his

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 25: Favorite Professor.

    Wendy's POV. "Idiot, imp, pervert!" I cussed angrily as I rode the elevator down, my heart seemed to be contracting because of the intense anger I was feeling. I blinked back the tears that wanted to fall off my eyes muttering, "I shall not cry for that idiot, I would not and I fucking wouldn't." I tried to keep the tears on but they fell freely and a bitter smile spread across my face as I immediately wiped the silly tears away from my face. "He won't break me, he can't break me." I kept assuring myself despite the amount of hurt and pain I was feeling inside, it stunk that I couldn't do anything to avoid my pain. ‘Just tell him you are the princess, tell him what he wants to hear, tell him what he wants to hear, Wendy.’ A tiny inner voice squawked in my head and I balled my hands into fists, my breath becoming harsh. "Never! I would not make such a mistake, I never will." I huffed and took in a deep breath to calm down as I neared my department floor.The elevator door dinged

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 26: An Accidental Bouquet.

    Wendy's POV. "Hurry up May, I don't want to miss the fucking class, you've wasted enough time!" I shouted with gritted teeth, trying hard not to scream too loud. I know we're having the class in the next thirty minutes but I want to be in class, I just want to be there, I can't afford to miss the psycho class by any tiny chance. My life's already filled with so much stress, that I would not allow him to add more stress to it. Hell no! "I'm coming, don't stress it," May said with a chuckle, turned to wink at me, and went back to talking with that annoying school playboy.I don't know why May's taste in men is so lame... Just like me. Not Wendy of now, the Wendy of before.Yeah, I have a lame taste when it comes to men but after my wrecking experience, I developed a tastelessness that I don't think would ever go away. When it comes to men, I do not have any interest nor any expectation from any. "May! I'm gonna leave you for real." I huffed and she and the boy turned around this ti

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 27: Just Like That?

    Wendy's POV. Picking up the bouquet, he looked at it with a blank expression before his eyes trailed to look at me. It was at such a time I wished the floor would just open up and gobble me up because I didn't know what to do or what to say.Going back in time now would be the best, why can't they just create a perfect time-traveling watch, a watch that I can just tap and go back in time? The two girls that brought the disaster immediately disappeared from sight, the only person still standing with me was May but I'm sure she was feeling dead scared as I was. I don't even know if it was my heartbeat or hers that I was hearing. With each step he took, my heartbeat accelerated. "I'm sorry sir, it was a pure accident, I have no intention whatsoever to haul it at you, please pardon me," I said quickly as he stood proudly in front of me, his eyes piercing into mine and it took every ounce of my courage not to drop on the floor and start begging because I had no idea the kind of punishm

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 28: Blessing Or Curse?

    Wendy's POV. "Alright, I think that's good enough but next time, show all your steps. If you make mistakes like this in exams or tests, I will not give you your full mark." Professor George's voice rang in the class.His method of teaching is childish but it's very admirable, not all professors would give the marker to students to solve math questions."Thank you, I'll take that into consideration." Aliyah, the most brilliant and beautiful girl in class, said with a bright smile and I heard May scoffing beside me.Aliyah is the perfect description of beauty with brains and to top it all, she's super-wealthy, she's the heir to her family empire, and OMG! She's fucking arrogant and prideful. I have no business with her though, it's May. I can bet that Aliyah is topping the list of people May despise with everything in her. Aliyah lives like she owns the world and technically, she does, she has it all. I almost had a tiff with her once but I had kindly withdrawn because she's a mad bi

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 29: Learning And Fun.

    Some Weeks Later. Wendy's POV."Oh Lord! Wendy, the expedition is the talk of the group, you have to be online!"I looked at the young woman smiling broadly on her phone."You should be packing May, not chatting, this isn't done, Aunt Linda would be here any minute and God help you if you haven't folded those clothes," I warned and for the first time in minutes, she tore her gaze from the phone to look at me, "Just help me, I promise, I'll pay you. Everyone's buzzing about the trip. It's a great trip, Wendy, three departments are going on a trip together for two weeks!" She screeched excitedly and went back to tapping her phone furiously. I let out a sigh and dragged my tired legs to where her clothes were scattered and began to help her fold. Packing for a two-week expedition felt like preparing for a space mission, and the chaos in our room described that perfectly. I have nothing much to pack, it was all May and May, she had turned the room inside out looking for the perfect o

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 132: Love.

    Wendy's POV. (Few days later.)"Thank goodness that good for nothing asshole got expelled, he deserves it." Aliyah said as we headed out of the class and Anna laughed. The news of Aaron suddenly getting expelled had baffled many and no one knows what he did or why he got expelled but I knew who was behind it. Professor George, I can't believe he'll do so much for me, I'm kinda regretting jilting him at the altar and I feel so much for him now... Maybe love. "I don't know what he did but he definitely deserves it, such a punk." Anna said and we all laughed. I want to see the professor but that would be hard with my friends around. They'll follow me anywhere I go but I have to look for a way. "Wendy, you don't look happy, ain't you happy he got expelled?" Ann asked and I smiled. How do I tell them that I'm the happiest?"Of course, I'm happy," I replied, trying to keep my tone light. "Just relieved it's all over."As we walked, my mind raced with thoughts of George. The way he had

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 131: Confused.

    Wendy's POV. My heart was beating fast and furious as I stared at the school building, I looked at the text message in my phone and tears threatened to fall from my eyes. Could he be so cruel, would he do something like that? Aaron has nothing to loose, he would do what he had threatened and I think my life was literally over. Once that picture surfaced in school, I'm a goner... The picture might spread through the internet and my family would definitely see it, the new life I had been trying to protect would be destroyed if Aaron went ahead with his plan. I don't know what made him think that I would want him back after everything he had done to me. I don't even know who informed him of my newest location! I walked through the corridor slowly, the school was empty except for early comers like me... I wouldn't have come early today had Aaron not send me a message, telling me that he had uploaded the images in the school site. I'm ruined. "Hey Wendy." A guy greeted and I just nodd

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 130: Videos

    George's POVWendy has finally turned me into the monster I didn't want to be. It's been a week yet, I cannot get my mind off the fact that her body is the medicine I needed to cure every sickness I was facing. Every time I see her, every time I watch her walk, and talk with her friends, it only makes me more confused as to why I hadn't made her mine just yet. Deep down, I know the reason but I was beyond reasoning when it comes to that girl. She was a distraction I don't mind getting distracted by but how do I go about it? What do I do with her? I don't know what to do with my feelings for her. Should I go for it or should I let her go? The mission I had come to the school for was the most pressing thing on my mind right now. It just has to be. With all these thoughts in my head, my shoes clicked against the tiled floor as I continued to make my way to the school's control room. This was one of the chances I could get as everyone was still home and it was still too early for anybo

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 129: Threat.

    Wendy's POV. I stepped out of the taxi, feeling a mix of happiness and nervousness. Last night was incredible... Super hot and spicy...but now I was sore and my legs felt like jelly. Still, it had definitely been worth it.A knot of worry twisted in my stomach. He hadn't used protection again. He seemed to dislike it more and more, preferring the raw feel of us. I enjoyed it too but it made me anxious. I took precautions, but nothing was ever 100% effective.I walked slowly toward school, my mind reeling with thoughts. I'd spent the night at his place since Aunt Linda was away on a business trip and May hadn't stayed home. She never did unless Aunt Linda was around.Checking the time, I saw there was still over an hour before my next class. I decided to head to my usual quiet spot. It was a place few students visited, and the natural scent there always calmed me.My phone buzzed, and I glanced at the screen to see a message from Aliyah: *"You okay? Where are you?"* I quickly replied

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 128: Her...

    George's POV. "I've missed you, so much babe..." Wendy mumbled as we walked into the bedroom.She had just come in and I am holding myself… trying not to jump on her immediately she came into my house. I smiled and drew her closer to me, my heart beating fast and furious but I tried to keep my cool. The urge to just carry her, strip her and fuck her was driving me insane but I kept my hunger for her in... Just a little more time and I would have her, I've been patient for almost two weeks, I can remain patient. "You have no idea how much I've missed you too princess and not been able to talk to you whenever I want was just another form of torture, I think you should consider moving in with me, I don't mind." I suggested and she just chuckled before dropping on the bed. "You know I can't move in with you, that's really dangerous." "Um, how about I rent an apartment for you huh? I can see you whenever I want, how does that sound?" I asked despite knowing the answer."Thank you but

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 127: Blessings.

    Wendy's POV. Few weeks later. "May! What the fuck is wrong with you?" I demanded, grabbing her wrist as we left the classroom. The anger and frustration boiled over, my need for answers consuming me whole because I've been too patient for long. She yanked her hand away from my hold, glaring at me with eyes full of resentment. "Stop being childish, Wendy! I told you, I need space from you. Is that too much to ask for?" Her voice was sharp, cutting through the air. I sighed heavily, glancing around at the small crowd that had gathered to watch our confrontation. My head spun with the weight of their stares and the pressure of the situation. May had become so unbearable over the past few weeks, and this seemed like my only chance to get through to her. She avoids me at home and acts like I don't even exist whenever she sees me. "Please, May, what's wrong?" I pleaded, desperation creeping into my voice. "I need to know what I did so I can make amends. You're like a sister to me. Tell

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 126: An Old Wendy.

    Wendy's POV. "You... Uncluttered swine. How dare you!" I huffed, looking at the man in front of me with nothing but disdain, he dares to say shit in front of me?!"What the fuck has gotten into you any way?!" I snapped, my voice laced with frustration and disgust. How could he have the audacity to pull a stunt like this?"What the hell is wrong with you Mr. Aaron?" I heard a deep masculine voice seethed and I turned to see Stan heading towards us; Tess, Anna and Aliyah were right behind him. I swallowed, thinking of a way to avoid the trouble that was clouding, "Are you alright Wendy?" Stan asked with a concerned look and I just forced a smile, thinking of different ways to stop the disaster waiting to happen."And who are you?" Aaron's voice penetrated into the air and I turned around to look at him with some kind of pure disdain."Look who's talking.... You know I saw you putting those cheap petals there, I never knew it was for Wendy, had I known, I would have had you arrested fo

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 125: Come Back To Me.

    Wendy's POV. As the taxi rolled closer to the school, a surge of frustration twisted in my gut, the bitter taste of resentment flooding my senses. "Why does it have to be like this?" I muttered to myself, feeling the weight of every bitter memory pressing down on me.The taxi driver sometimes peeped at me through the rear mirror and I understand, he might probably be worried that he had picked up a psycho because of the way I had been muttering in his taxi. "My life is like a bad soap opera," I grumbled, clenching my fists as I stared out the window. "I'm just tired of it all, you know?" My life is the worst!Right now, I hate it, I mean I hate my life!A life where I have to see Aaron everyday and be reminded of how I had destroyed my life because of some love.I never thought I would not be looking forward to going to school, attending lectures... Everything at school annoys me now. All I wanted to do was stop going to school. I wanted to stay at home and have some peace of mind.

  • Tempted By My Jilted Groom   Chapter 124: Messed Up Emotions.

    Wendy's POV. As the class ended, I bolted out of the room like a bat out of hell, my mind spinning in different possibilities of how things can go awfully wrong."What the hell?!" I muttered, barely able to comprehend the situation. "How? What was he doing here and... Good Lord!" I pleaded internally, feeling utterly overwhelmed. "Please help me, I beg you. I can't handle this shit right now. How the fuck do I cope with this?""Wendy!" A voice called out, but I refused to acknowledge it. All I wanted was to find a quiet corner to think about the latest messy development in my life. I need to think and I have to think of solutions too. He had the audacity to show his face after what he'd done. The nerve of him to spew garbage at me. He should have had the decency to stay far away from me, to hide in shame. But no, he dared to confront me! I don't get it, what was he doing here anyway?! Fuck him and everything he stands for."Wendy!" The voice persisted, joined by others, but I didn'
