CHAPTER 4: HIS PLEASURE, MY PAIN
1502 Words
“Alex?” I call and he looks at me in anger.
“So this is it, Maddy?” He says and I narrow my brows in confusion.
“What are you talking about?”
His eyes darkened and fear engulfs me. No, not in front of the professor. Not here. I walk to him. “He was just helping me,”
“Helping you with what? Holding you?” I grimace at his words. “Don't speak like that.” I say, trying to calm him down.
“What else should I f*****g say!” He barks and I flinch.
My eyes glisten. “ Alex please not here,"I plead, but he grabs my hand, his sharp nails digging into my skin, and drags me out of the room.
He pushes me into an empty lecture room and I fall to the cold ground, bruising my hand.
“f*****g infidel b***h,” he growls as he drags me up. Hot tears pour from my eyes. It wasn't the first time he's doing this but calling me infidel shattered my heart. How could I get close to any other man when I know he'd kill me?
“Alex please hear me out-”
“Why? So you can lie again? Why did you let him touch you that way?” He holds my shoulder fiercely. I look up to meet his furious gaze.
“I didn't he-” My face swings to the left by the impact of his strong hands on my face. I cry in pain.
“You don't let me touch you but you can let another man touch you? Is it because he's more handsome than I am or because he's got a better body than me?” He grabs my chin and makes me look at him.
‘ Madison, why are you still enduring this? You know I can help you deal with him. Just allow me.’
I look at Mae who's standing next to the podium. She always comes in situations like this. It gets harder by the day ignoring her. No…I can't let her. I love Alex so much. He's just being protective.
“I…I'm sorry,” I stammer, shuddering. His dark gaze softens and his grip loosens.
“Why do you enjoy hurting me?” His hand moves to my cheek then brushes it with his thumb. I look at the podium and Mae's gone.
“I didn't mean to,” I say and he cleans my tears. I can't help but shudder. I fear at every touch. No one knows about him beating me and I'm glad it's that way.
“I'm sorry I hit you. I love you and I won't tolerate anyone else touching you. If you get stained it doesn't matter. Don't let that happen again,” he warns, bringing his face close to mine.
I nod and my hip hand moves to my lips. I can't help but feel pain instead of pleasure. The memory of it all was coming back. The night-
“f**k! You are so pretty when you cry.” He whispers as he closes his eyes and caresses my lips.
That traumatic memory. The reason I didn't let Alex sleep with me.
“Let me f**k you please,” he groans and my fist clenches.
'Madison, don't let him. You'll hurt yourself again.’ Mae says from nowhere.
“Eric,” I breathed and before I could say a word, he pushed me to the wall and attacked my lips. Tears begin to pour again as the memory of years ago resurface. The same passion and intensity. Unwilling to let go. The torture!
“You are hurting me,” I mumble on his lips as his hand moves to my ass. He moves away and looks at me, his eyes darkened again. His veins bulge in annoyance. I could see the huge bulge in between his legs. I hate myself for treating him like this.
“You should go get something to eat before the next lecture,” he moves away from me.
“Aren't you coming with me?” I asked as he walked to the door.
“If you can't give me what I want, I'll do it myself,” he exits.
I allow the remaining tears in my eyes to flow. Why can't I be like every other girl? Why do I let my past get the best of me?
‘ I warned you but you didn't listen. Look at yourself,” Mae says next to me. I look at her and hug her.
“I'm tired Mae,” I cry on her shoulder and she pays my back.
'It's alright,”

“Guess what guys,” Jenna says as we walk back to our dorm. I wanted to change into something else before detention. Lecture was over today. We all are in the same faculty of sciences. Jenna's studying Biochemistry, Tory, Biology and me, Industrial Chemistry.
I managed to hide the bruises with makeup I carried in my bag in situations like this.
“If it's about dogs trending on t****k more than human beings, firstly, that's totally justified-”
“It's not about that, Tory. I heard the new professor got loads of love letters today, I also heard Jessica tried to seduce him but he didn't even give her a glance,” Jenna says and Tory eyes widened. I'm excited.
“Serves her right. The professor doesn't seem like he's into girls.” Tory frowns and so does Jenna.
Jenna gasps, raising a hand like she had an epiphany. “What if he's…you know… gay.”
Tory gasps in shock and I roll my eyes. “I've gotta go,” I say. There are three dorms here. The first which has the largest building and population is for scholarship students. The second is for the average students and thirds for the outstandingly rich. Unfortunately, I fall under the third category while Jenna and Tory live in the second.
“Good luck on your first day of detention,” Tory jokes and I smile which I immediately regret as pain hits me.
“Are you okay Maddy?” Jenna looks at me with wide eyes.
I force a smile and endure the throbbing pain in my cheek. “Yeah, just thinking of how I'd have to listen to three hours of a disciplinary video,”
“Hmm,” She looks at me, frowning like she's trying to read through my mind. I look away immediately. Jenna's really hard to deceive.
“I'll leave now,”
“Okay, see ya later alligator.” Tory chuckles and I roll my eyes and walk away.
When I got to my room, I took off my clothes immediately and took a quick bath. Afterwards, I treat the bruise on my leg and I wear an ankle length trouser this time. I park my hair into a messy bun and apply some make up to hide the bruise. I throw a green hoodie over my head.
I look at the professor's hoodie on my bed. That body. His hand brushiñg my waist. Oh Lord, what's this? I've never felt like this before. The scent of vanilla makes me remember how close I was with him.
I shake the thought away immediately then I say a silent prayer and leave for detention.
**. **. **
I enter the lecture hall where detention is usually held. No one except Mr. Cherry, the Philosophy professor was here. Everyone fears him because he's a very stern and strict man. People say he got all grumpy when his wife cheated on him with his stepbrother. I'm relieved it isn't the new professor.
“Surprised to see you here Miss Sky.” He said, as he put down the magazine he was reading.
“Unfortunate to be here,” I force a smile. He was lenient to me which made everyone suspect we were having an affair although he's twenty seven years older than me.
“Take a seat. “ He said and I nodded and sat on row two of the fifteen rows. People hardly get detention because no one wants to face the wrath of the Chancellor and also because most people here have already gotten their second detention.
“I'm sorry but, I have to attend bible studies. So, Mr. Reece would take my place.” He stands. I nod in understanding and take out my notepad. I wonder who that is.
“Ah, Reece, you came at a nick of time, I was about to leave.” Professor Cherry said.” Thank you for offering to take my place.”
I wonder why the new professor said he'd see me in detention when it's Professor Cherry's task. Except-
“My pleasure,” That voice. That bold voice! My eyes moved to the seksy man standing next to a smiling Professor Cherry. His eyes moved to mine, his expression unreadable as usual.
The Chemistry Professor's name is Reece?
