Poisonous Love

Chapter 8

Past

Jane

Nathaniel dragged me outside towards what looked like a garden. I tried to pull my hand out of his grip but he is not at all relenting. It will for sure leave bruises.

''Hey, where are you taking me?'' I asked him but no reply.

''Hello, I am talking to you. Mr.'' I tried again. But unfortunately, the result remains the same, no response.

''Listen he wasn't misbehaving with me why did you create a scene there?'' that got a reaction from him he stopped walking and turned to look at me. His face was still hard. His jaw was clenched and his eyes glimmered with anger. I was scared not wanted to be the outlet for his anger. I struggled hard. I don't this guy. He could be anything. He could be a gangster or a vampire maybe he is dragging me with himself to drink my blood.

Stupid vampires aren't real

but-- my thoughts came to a halt when he slammed me on one of the mansion's walls. And before I know it his lips was on mine. My eyes flew wide open but his lips were soft so soft. He brushed his lips twice and thrice. Both of his hands are cupping my face gently. He pulls my lower lip into his mouth softly sucking on it. Eliciting a moan from me. I don't know him but this kiss this soft kiss feels good. So good.

Then he sucks my upper lip in his mouth while I do the vice versa with his. His kiss is like a drag of weed so addicting so intoxicating that I forget that I am kissing some stranger right about now but that doesn't stop me from giving him the permission to drive his tongue into my mouth.

And he did he soft kiss turned passionate the moment his tongue touched mine. Our tongues are dueling. Tingles erupt in my stomach at the ferocity of his kiss it's like he is pouring all his anger into this kiss. I never thought that the man of my dreams would kiss me like this. So passionately. I thought he will remain my dream only. But right now I am enjoying his lips on mine.

My hands are wrapped around his neck softly tugging on the ends of his short hair. Making him grab me tighter than before. When he ends the kiss we both are panting heavily trying to catch the breath we lost in each other.

My face is still in his hands and he looks at me like I am his most precious person. What are these emotions? His held longingness, need desire, and something so feral I have never seen before. How can someone feel so strong for some stranger? I bet my face had a dreamy look. And just like that, he is walking away. What the actual f**k.

He didn't say a word to me not once in this whole ordeal he kissed me like a starved man and then stared at me like a lovesick and left just like that. What the f**k. It took me some time to gain my posture. I can't go back to the party. It will be humiliating and everyone will know from my appearance that something is up. I can feel my lips are swollen and my hairs are messy.

Opening up the front camera of my phone I try to do some damage control. Then I decided to call Jas. But she isn't picking up. I tried again and again. I tried several more times before giving up. Then I tried Andrew he is my last hope otherwise I had to book a Uber Which I don't want given my appearance and I want a shoulder to cry on after facing such vicious humiliation.

Andrew didn't pick up at once too. Oh god now panic starts to fill in. I tried again this time on the third ring he picked up. Thank god.

''Hello, Andrew can you come outside, please,'' I told him where I was there isn't any students around thank god for that. Or god knows if anyone would have witnessed the scene. I would be the new gossip for a few days.

After 10 minutes Andrew came running towards me taking my appearance in he said '' What happened Jane are you alright. And What are you doing here all alone?''

Unknowingly tears made their way out of my eyes and onto my cheeks. I threw myself at Andrew he rubbed my back trying to console me but the more he tried the more tears roll down my cheeks.

After crying my humiliation out I straighten myself and mumbled a small sorry.

''Don't be stupid. And now tell me what happened. Did anyone say anything to you or did someone touch you without your consent?'' He looked ready to kill the person for making me cry but I for the love of God couldn't say anything to him.

Seeing my lack of response he sighs and said ''It's okay if you aren't comfortable.'' I nodded.

''Where is Jas?'' after a pregnant silence I asked Andrew.

''Honestly, I don't know she said she is going to the ladies' room to freshen up but didn't return. It's been forty-five minutes. I checked everywhere and tried her phone hundreds of times but no response.'' Andrew replied and I can see the worry for Jas clear as day on his face.

Just as I was about to say something to Andrew my phone vibrated in my hand I opened it to see a message from Jas.

I met my friend from high school and I am leaving with her to spend the night at her place. No need to worry for me. Inform Andrew as well.

P.S. I am sorry for informing late.

''Andrew Jas messaged me right now saying she is spending the night with one of her high school friend she met at the party and she is sorry for not informing timely.'' As soon as I said high school friend Andrew stiffen but soon relaxes by the end of the message.

''That's strange she never up and leaves,'' Andrew said more to himself than me. It is indeed strange Jas is a responsible girl. She would never leave without informing anyone. Something is fishy I would talk to her about it tomorrow.

''Let's go I will drop you at your dorm,'' Andrew said still busy in his thoughts. I nodded and follow him to his car. After half an hour we were standing outside the dorm.

''Thank you tonight Andrew. If you wouldn't have picked up my call I don't know what would I have done.''

''Just rest for the night don't think about tonight okay.'' He patted my head and turned to leave.

How can I not think about tonight?
