Semua Bab The Bad Boy's Dirty Little Secret: Bab 71 - Bab 80

Chapter 71: I Would NeverKai’s P.O.VI tried my best to listen to Kia as she narrated her struggles with Rick, but I was too angry to focus on the details. All I knew was that he hit her; he was trying to force himself on my sister to get his way, and when he hadn't been able to do that…he had hit my sister.And that was unforgivable.I was overly aware of Night sitting still behind me, the tension in the air palpable. He also resented Rick for what he did to my sister, even though he had never met the guy, and from the way he clenched and unclenched his hands, I knew he was wondering if it was okay to hold my sister’s hand in comfort, or if it would be overstepping her boundaries.I wanted to tell him that it was fine, and that she wouldn’t mind, but I was trying to focus on controlling my own rage to say anything.The overwhelming sense of guilt that I had been feeling all this time finally took root, paralyzing me on the spot. I watched as my sister’s eyes watered, and she closed

Chapter 73: Off For GoodKai’s P.O.VEverything happened at once. I was hauled out of the way of Rick’s line of sight, and I almost tripped over my feet. By the time I had steadied myself enough…I heard a sickening thud of a sound from right behind me, and Rick’s cry was cut short.When my mother screamed again, it was not out of anger, but of fear. I whipped around to see what was happening and stopped breathing for a few instances when I saw the blood on Night’s forehead.Rage blinded me, boiling in waves, making me see red. My body moved before I could think.I pounced at Rick, going ballistic as I sent punch after punch at his already bruised body. “You unmanly coward,” I seethed. “Trying to catch me unaware? Asshole.”I don't remember much about what else I said, but I assume it was a colorful string of curses accompanying each hit. I basically lost all control, and Kia and my father had to pry me off of Rick once they saw he was unconscious and losing a lot of blood.“Shhh, Kai,

Chapter 75: ReconciliationKai’s P.O.VA chill went through my entire body, and I froze, eyes closed, waiting for the silence to break. I fully expected either of them to come up and slap me in the face. After all, this was an even bigger disappointment than hitting that pathetic scum.I bet my parents never expected me to turn out this way, and just like most strict households, they too would be regretting having me as their son.But the hit never came.I slowly opened my eyes to figure out what was happening, and the faces that greeted me were not the ones that I thought I would see. My parents did not look angry at all—they were shocked, yes, but not offended about my existence.What on earth was happening? Was I dreaming?The words flew out of my mouth before I could stop myself from talking. “Why aren’t you angry? You don’t look angry.” I glanced at Night, to confirm that this was actually happening and that my parents actually didn’t seem angry at me.It seemed that I wasn’t day

Chapter 77: I Want To See This ForeverKai’s P.O.VWhen light started to seep into the gaps between the curtains of my room, I stirred awake from the comfort of my sleep. Night’s back was pressed against my chest, and I had one armed draped over his body, while the other was under his head, fallen asleep under his weight.I slowly tried to get up without waking him, but was only able to fully free my buzzing arm from underneath him when he rolled over, groaning lightly in protest. “Sorry,” I said with a wince. “Didn’t mean to wake you.”“It’s alright…” he mumbled into the pillow, voice muffled. “Need to get up anyway…”“I’m gonna go take a shower,” I continued as I got out of bed, stretching my arms to get some blood supply going. “Wanna join me or do you wanna get your bearings sorted first?”“I’ll join you if I manage to force myself to get up…” He groaned, settling himself more comfortably into my pillows.I laughed, shaking my head. When I did get into the bathroom however, he fol

Chapter 79: Pride and a CrownKai’s P.O.VWith the help of the volunteers and the student council members’ leadership, the set was ready right on time, just as the sun began to set. I quickly went to change into the outfit I was supposed to wear for the photoshoot.Zach was still worried about Ruby’s absence, but I didn’t even fret. I knew already that she was doing this to torture the people around her by making them think she was going to be late or wouldn’t show up, but that was just her throwing a temper tantrum.I knew her well enough to be assured that she would never, ever let go of her crown over something petty. Sure, she’d have her fun, but in the end, she’ll show up at the very last minute.And true enough, my predictions were proven right because just as I was about to head to my place on the set, the witch strolled into the room like she owned it, all glamed up and ready to have her photos taken.“What did I tell you?” I muttered to Zach, and he only looked at me with an
