The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER TWENTY NINE
To stay true to my word, I avoided Luke like a plague the following day.And the next.And well, up until today's evening.I ignored him when he tried to talk to me. I swear I visited the restroom more than a dozen times to ease my bladder because it always got so filled up every damn hour I sat near him in class, feeling my heart banging against my chest.When I stood in front of my locker in the hallway after school dismissal today to grab some notes, I kept my head down when he walked past me. Reece seemed to have noticed my discomfort, because she stopped chatting about how happy she is to attend Camilla's party tonight.It took everything in me not to lift my head up to look at Luke when he walked past me. Or to reach out my hand to him.Now, I am home, back from school.And alone.Sarah is at the hospital now, but before she left the house, she sneaked her silver boots, her makeup bag, and a paper note into my room while I was in the shower, getting freshened for Camilla's party
The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER THIRTY
My clothes are already laid out on the bed. After pulling off my bath robe, I put on the black tank top and the black latex skirt. Reece is busy on her phone, texting only God-knows-who.After zipping my feet into Sarah's silver boots, I grab my pair of silver hoop earrings from my jewelry box and hook them on my ears.I breath out, flipping my hair over my shoulders. I adjust my stance, feeling so glad and relieved that the heels of Sarah's boots are well balanced.After spraying my perfume, I check myself out in front of my mirror once more. Through the mirror, I can still see Reece glued to her phone.It is so unlike her to be like this, especially when we are together. By now, the Reece I know will be shouting and squealing out how great or how different or how beautiful I look, but right now, it feels like it is just her shadow that is with me in this room now.I cough loudly, but it takes a while before she looks up from her phone."Gosh Alicia. Your outfit looks so amazing on yo
The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER THIRTY ONE
The driver finally arrives in front of Camilla's house, which is already booming with party music. Reece had already paid the driver online before we got to Camilla's house, so Reece and I just simply opened the door and alighted.When the driver starts his car and drives off, Reece and I turn around to take a full look at Camilla's house.Camilla's parents are rich. I mean, freaking, fucking rich. But I doubt if they really know that their only child is very bratty since they are too busy flying all over the world to build their wealth and leaving their imperial mansion to Camilla to do as she sees fit.A group of girls from my class dressed in skimpy party clothes wave at Reece and I as they walk past us, giggling at one another."We better go inside." Reece says, grabbing my hand. She starts to lead us both towards the house entrance.___________________As Reece and I enter fully into the house, the air hits my nostrils, reeking of booze and something fruity. I feel the nausea bui
The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER THIRTY TWO
Why is he here?!I can barely feel the noise around me, but my skin burns like it's on fire with the way Luke's eyes stare back at me like I am the only girl in the room.His hair is messy as usual, but his blue eyes are a little bit dim compared to the bright colored lights swirling around in the room. He looks breathtaking in his white t-shirt, and I find myself gulping at the thought of all the hot tattoos and muscled sexiness the fabric is hiding.I look back up at his face, and I swallow again when I find him still staring at me. Shame begins to churn the contents of my stomach, but as I try to look away from him, someone else catches my attention.A girl, almost the same height as me, appears by his side, wrapping her hand around his arm. She tugs at him. Luke breaks eye contact with me and turns to her. The uneasiness in the pit of my stomach is replaced with thick nausea when she lifts up her feet and mutters something to Luke's ear, making him laugh.My heart is starting to b
The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER THIRTY THREE
Before I leave through the door to join Camilla outside, I pause for a while and turn back, my eyes scanning around the noisy house for Luke. Pain stops my heart for a moment when I don't see him. My belly burns with the thought of him being alone with that girl in some fucking room upstairs, allowing her mess around with him and having her rub her hands all over him and maybe even allowing her to fuck him—"Alicia." Reece calls, making me turn around. I walk towards her and when I reach her, she grabs my hand and gives it a squeeze."Why the hell did you agree to play truth or dare?" She whispers. "You and I are well aware of the fact that you haven't played truth or dare before in your life.""I will be fine Reece." I whisper back, my words coming out with a bit slur. "Don't worry about me."I pat the back of her hand wrapped around my hand. I lift it up and give it a little peck.What the hell is wrong with me?Well, whatever.Reece sighs and snuggles close to Michael with her hand
The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR
I suck in a breath and stand. My legs feel wobbly, but I manage to reach the table without staggering. Before tonight, I had never drank Sex on the Beach. I had never played truth or dare.I guess tonight is the night of 'A Lot of Firsts' for me.On reaching the table, I dip my hand into the bucket and bring out a folded paper. As usual, Josh collects it from me and shows it to everyone before he reads out what is written on it."I dare you to kiss the person you find most attractive here for three minutes."What?!My heart does a mad flip. Camilla chuckles a bit.Why kissing of all freaking dares?!"I doubt if she has ever kissed anyone before." Hasley taunts with a giggle.I ignore her and take a breath before looking around. I can't believe that I am considering doing this dare, but after I am done, maybe I can blame it on the alcohol raging in my body system.Daniel is quite attractive, but he is a manwhore, and for some weird reason, I detest the ring piercing on his bottom lip. L
The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE
If a burning gaze has the power to kill, then it is certain that I should be six feet deep in the ground right now. Dead. Grilled to death by the hot coals blazing from Luke's glistening red eyes.Seconds that feel like insane torture pass by as Luke's flaming eyes burn into mine. He is not saying anything, but I don't want him to. Not yet.Not now that I am sure that his words will shatter me to pieces if he speaks them."Go to hell Alicia."And they do shatter me. To tiny, irredeemable pieces. He spits them out with so much venom that actually takes me to hell and back. My vision blurs, and I allow the tears to pour.My palm is itching with pain from the slap. What have I done? How. . . . . .how could I have been so stupid?"Luke I—"He turns away from me and walks over to the driver's door of the car. I watch him helplessly as he opens the door.He is about to enter, but stops."Uhm, about the project, I am almost done with the paintings. You can drop by whenever you like if you ca
The Badboy's Redemption CHAPTER THIRTY SIX
I toss around on my bed when I hear a couple of knocks on my door. My eyes flutter open. When I hear the chirping of birds outside my window, I dart my eyes to the clock.It is already 7:00am in the morning.The knock on my door comes again, followed with a voice I can recognize even in my dreams."Alicia?" Sarah's voice calls."Alicia?" She calls again. "I am coming." I manage to croak out.I sit up on my bed. Immediately I do, a banging headache spikes in my brain. I wince and clutch my head at once. It feels like a disco concert is going live in my head. The pain stings my eyes with tears, and I move down my hands to wipe them away.I gather some strength and climb out from my bed. When I stand, it feels like I am carrying a full heavy bucket of water on my head. I slump back on my bed and manage to turn to look at myself in the mirror.A terrible looking girl with scattered hair and puffy red eyes with big swollen cheeks stare back at me. I gasp at my reflection, moving my hands
