Irresistible mate

Nate

Why do I feel like Jason's gaze is following me all the time..? During the lectures, I slowly checked few times, and for my surprise whenever I turned, his puzzled eyes were on me. How odd.. Has he gone mad? After I got caught few times, I thought to stop this madness and concentrate more without giving a damn about his sh*t.

But whenever our gazes met, it felt so different. I can't pinpoint those exact feelings right now, but I feel that, oddly, I have been attracted to him. He's trying to magnetise me with his charm. It's so strange because, until yesterday, he didn't give a f**k about me. He disgusts me and tries to hurt me and my feelings whenever possible. As for me, I was hating him to my core, but unusually, I have been drawn to his charisma, which is hard not to fall for. His piercing eyes gave me unknown sensations and shivers throughout my entire body just from his glance. Oh, moon goddess, have I gone insane? Am I imagining things that I can see the concern in his eyes? Am I losing my mind?

Though I try to avoid him the whole day, I meet him wherever I go. Even in the evening, he comes alone to the bakery and sits and watches me while I work. He tried to pretend that he was busy with his phone, but it's obvious that he came to check on me. What the hell is with this guy? Is he scared that I would tell anyone about their family torturing me? But why? And what for? They are well aware that I will never do such a stupid thing unless I find a way to save my self. I'm not that dumb to dig my own grave..Or since I'm eighteen today, are they scared that I will find my mate and go with him? Whatever. Forget about it, Sam. Let him be there. Just ignore it as usual and do your job. I told myself this mentally and did the chore.

The next few days happened the same way, and to my surprise, every day I got a red rose from my locker in college with a small note. something to cheer my mood or compliment my beauty, but sometimes I felt so freaky thinking who could be doing such a thing. Though it terrified me from deep down in my heart, I was a bit happy. Because after so many years, someone has shown me some sort of concern.

Today morning I got a bit late to college because I couldn't leave the house as I expected, but I was lucky enough to enter the class with the teacher. Mr. Benson is such a kind gentleman, and he smiles with me and allows me to sit first. When he was about to begin our math lesson, some handsome guy entered the class by excuse, and Mr. Benson introduced him to us as a new student. He is quite tall and handsome, with brown eyes. His hair is jet black and spiky, which gives him more attraction. He's introduced as Nate, and he's new to this town. Girls were so into his look because everyone was checking out his handsome physique, including me.

He took the empty seat next to me coz anyone doesn't like to sit in the front line except for me.

"Hey!" someone whispered, which made me startled.

With a curious face, I look at him.

"Hi! I'm Nate, can you share your text book with me? " He said. "I couldn't bring mine and you are?" He asked,

"Sam" I said and try to show the content which Mr. Benson started.

He adjust the book for both of us. Though Our proximity is too close which makes me bit nervous, but I tried not to show it much. His elbow was slightly touching mine.

Since Mr. Benson starts the lesson, I convert my attention by forgetting the others, and after that, Nate didn't bother me either.

But one thing bother me.. It was the feeling that someone watching me. So odd..

So.. I avert my gaze slowly to confirm my suspicions and am astonished to discover it's none other than Jason. He's straightly looking at my face and sending deadly glares at me and Nate, which made me move uncontiously.

What's wrong with that man? Why is he so mad that it seems like a nuclear bomb is above to explore at any moment?
