His to Ruin.

Chapter 17

Jacqueline’s POV

After the disastrous dinner last night, I woke up to a properly cooked breakfast by Drey. I freshened up, ate breakfast, ordered an Uber, and went to get Tracy. Tracy and I had a morning class scheduled, so we had to be early. We both went to my place so she could put on any of my clothing suitable for her class.

I didn't have time to look for my Nana, cause of how we were in a hurry to get to school.

We finally made it to school and Tracy hurriedly left my side for her own class, while I went to mine. I was in such a hurry and, unfortunately, I bumped into someone who deliberately put his hands in my way, blocking the class entrance.

“Hey!! Move!!” I said aggressively, trying to pull his hands down, without thinking or looking at whose hand that was. I finally looked up after rubbing my hand on my forehead and I saw no other person than Andrew Woods standing in front of me with a proud knowing smirk on his face. I tried going under his arm that was in the way but he blocked me still, I looked at him irritated, and decided to stay out until the teacher came but Andrew had other plans. He grabbed my hands and pulled me into the hallway and people just watched me shout and no one did anything, he then forced me into an empty storage room. I was panicking, my breathing pace changed, and I couldn't do anything because he was stronger. What makes it worse is that the room was dark, I managed to free one of my hands and I was feeling the walls trying to look for a switch or something to escape. The space was tight and I could feel his body pressing on mine, I instantly heard a click then a dim light came on, it turns out the light in this room has a switch on a lamp whereby you have to pull the rope before it turns on.

Andrew still very close to me smiled but not a genuine one, it looked like the one of a maniac. It reminds me of the Joker. He hasn't even said a word, he just stares at me with his eyes filled with lust. I was too scared to shout, I was too scared to speak, I was still calculating how I'd escape because he was in front of the door with his back facing it and him facing me. He yanked my hair roughly to the back, making my head tilt backwards, and he kissed me on my neck and placed trails of kisses down my neck to my neckbones, I was still trembling in fear and this made me freeze on the spot, but when he was going down to my boobs with his lips I mustered enough courage and strength and kicked him in his groins with my knee, he fell to the floor with his hands trying to hold it and calm himself down, all that he uttered before I finally escaped was him saying I would pay for it.

Like this guy must be sick in the head, he almost raped me and he is saying I'd pay, pay for what exactly.

I quickly went to the toilet to fix myself, I was still trembling because a lot of “what ifs” came to my mind. What if I were raped, what if I were killed? I just had to get myself together and go on with my day. Even if I report to the police, it will be my word against his then the case gets swept under the carpet like nothing happened.

After I felt a little confident I went to class, not caring about the fact that I'd be very late.

When I got there the door was closed, which signifies that the class had already begun, I pushed the door open and the teacher halted in his steps “Well Miss Woods, I hope your excuse is better than that of Andrew’s”

My eyes widened at the mention of his name, my head was down with my eyes on the floor due to shame when I first got in, but on hearing that bastard's name I looked up and I saw his stupid face with a smile on it. I looked at the teacher again and apologized but I left the class. I thought I could handle it, but I can't. I went straight home, I didn't even contact Tracy that I was leaving school. I just left.

I got home and I saw my abuela watching TV, and I haven't seen her do that in a long while now, maybe she does when I'm not around, just by seeing her my mood changed from being shitty to me smiling at her. I walked towards her and I gave her a long hug. “Mi nieta, I hope everything is fine”, she asked while hugging me. “Yes Grandma, everything is fine”.

I went up to have a cold bath cause I feel like I need it. When I got out of the bathroom with my towel on I heard my email notification ring so I checked and saw that I am no longer needed at my place of work. This made me laugh so hard because I thought I had properly resigned. How can that skip my mind? I laughed till my stomach hurt, then I jumped on my bed in my towel and played a cartoon to watch on my tablet.

Drey’s POV

After Bob had disposed of the clock, I still stayed in the living room thinking of all the possible conversations that would have been heard by whoever was behind it. Luke and Daniella were still here, then Daniella spoke up saying, “This has never happened before, but all of a sudden your friend comes and there is a spy already”. She looked at Luke with so much disdain but Luke never said a word he just looked distant, like his mind was elsewhere.

I was skeptical about Luke coming back into my life but he is like my brother and I’m very certain he has nothing to do with this. I will just have to believe it's a company default and be extra careful, with what I share with anyone. I know Andrew now is on my trail and I have to tread consciously without him getting to know who I truly am or where I’m from but he also needs to pay for the little stunt he pulled at the diner. No one puts Jacqueline in danger.

“Luke, how about those guys, any news?” I said to Luke ignoring the remark Daniella made earlier about him.

“No Drey, not yet”

Daniella got up and left with an attitude, she did not even ask what we were talking about.

I am not certain about many things but I know for a fact that ever since Luke came visiting, Daniella has not been herself and I would really want to know why. Or is this one of those girl things that she's trying to hide that she likes him? Because I am confused. Regardless Andrew will pay for trying to mess with me.
