Pearl smiled before driving out of the compound.

*

LOFT, 10PM*

Hazzan finally found the location after hours of roaming the city.

He hurriedly ran to the building, almost breathless.

The lights are off, but he's sure Roonie is in.

He pounded at the door

"Banks! Banks I know you're in! Please save Rook and I promise to worship at your feet for the rest of my life! Rook is dying!!!" He cried, kneeling at the door.

"I promise to start doing your bidding and follow your rules. You can behead us if we do otherwise please. Save my only son!!!" He cried again, pounding the door harder.

No answer came, but inside the Loft, Roonie is standing by the door, watching him through the camera.

He's shirtless, and his eyes are glossing with the sharp moonlight cutting in through the net on top of the door.

Tiger is behind him, and he's holding a red apple which he's eating.

As he ate, his gums swelled up, but he didn't stop eating.

Yeah... he's allergic to red apples cos anytime he eats them like this, his gums swell and it hurts so fuçking much, but who says he can't eat it?

He made it his favorite fruit cos of the allergy... He'd rather get hurt than not have what he's obsessed with.

He took another bite, watching Hazzan with no pity in his empty eyes at all.

"Banks!!!!" Hazzan cried again, but he turned his back at once, offing the camera before going upstairs, tigrt following him behind.

NEXT DAY, LEGACY COLLEGE*

It's another week.

Another Monday.

Another series of sagas.

Students were already trooping into the campus when Pearl drove in.

She exhaled loudly when she turned off her engines.

She took another look at herself, and chills hit her when she realized what she's about to do.

She started a countdown from ten, and the moment she counted one, she opened the car door and stepped out.

Jaws of the nearby students dropped on the floor immediately.

She's wearing new denim shorts like Roonie requested, and that highlighted her sublime hips and smooth waist.

She's so fuçking curvy, and her straight short legs accentuated it more.

She's wearing a sleeveless top too, but not too short cos it's covering her navel.

She has louboutin heels on, and she straightened her hair out, light makeup, and she's even wearing an emerald necklace, the one her mum gave her on her birthday last year which complemented her outfit so much.

Slowly, she began taking careful steps into the hallway, keeping her head up, her cherry perfume dousing the air.

Air was blowing her hair sideways, and she's busy sweeping it back with her palm, her butt swaying perfectly behind her.

She left everyone's mouth in an O, and they couldn't move from their spots.

• Pearl?

• WTF!

• What's going on?

• She has been covering all of these with baggy joggers and big t-shirts?

• Those heavy breàsts!

• I swear she should get arrested!

Pearl had to stop and swallow her spit this time, feeling like the whole world is staring at her, and on their faces, she's seeing no one face but uncle Richard's.

Now she regrets doing this...

What's she gonna do? She can't move.

She's starting to sweat, and her hand tightened on her bag strap.

Her friends joined the crowd, and their eyes widened too.

"Is this why she told us not to wait for her this morning?" Morgan said unbelievably.

"Fûck! My baby is hot!" Rebekah gushed.

"I promise I'm not lesbian" Lizzy said, and Morgan laughed.

"My gawd" Teal covered her mouth.

"She's gorgeous" Isaac smiled.

Jeremy appeared too, wearing face cap cos of his ruined face and lips

His mouth widened, and his heart raced so much.

When he saw she's not moving, he started rushing to her.

"Is she ok? She's not moving" Lizzy said from the girls side.

"I don't think so" Rebekah replied and started rushing to her too.

Pearl shifted back when uncle Richard's face appeared on Rebekah and Jeremy too, and she bumped into a solid surface.

She gasped, her hair pouring on her face as she turned slowly to see the only face different from others.

Roonie's

He's standing behind her, looking at her with unhinged interest.

A cutthroat madness.

A lethal obsession.

He's not blinking as he checked her out, and she blinked slowly, her throat moving.

"Roonie?" She muttered.

"Noah" he whispered darkly, and before she could process that, he slipped his arms behind her, grabbed her soft @ss possessively and shoved her to himself.

She let out a gasp, and that sounded like the perfect invite in his ears as he leaned down, capturing her cutely small lips into his mouth.

Her bag fell...

Her breathing seized...

And Jeremy removed his cap.

A big smile exploded on Pearl's face, and he buried his face in her breàsts, greedily breathing in the smell of her cherry.. She dipped her fingers in his brown hair, stroking it to the scalp. He groaned into her chest, his face resting in a more relaxed way. She was about to stroke his scalp again when he suddenly raised his head, facing her with a slight frown between his brows. "Where did you get the tattoo from? Who inked you?" "It's a woman, I promise" she replied with a knowing smile. "Tell me the name and location of the shop" he insisted.
