Chapter 1. The Bet

On Friday afternoon, Helen Robert had just finished her pharmacy class and was heading back to her hostel when she heard someone yelling her name.

"Wait, Helen," Samuel Kingston called. He was a 23-year-old man and a fourth-year student at Avalon University.

"Why should I wait? What do you want from me?" Helen asked as she turned back to face Samuel Kingston, the notorious bad boy at Avalon University.

"Why are you acting hard to get? Do you think I want to use you?" Samuel asked as he refused to give up. He wore a faded black jean jacket, jeans, and boots, as he had just exited his pharmacy class. He was studying pharmacy as well as Helen, but she was a brilliant, chubby, 21-year-old fair-skinned girl.

Some other pharmacy students stole glances at them and wondered if Helen would give Samuel a chance. Besides, his father was a billionaire and owned a pharmaceutical company in their state.

Helen wore a white top and a brown skirt, paired with black shoes. A pair of spectacles was perched on the bridge of her nose. She was of average height and had blue eyes and long blonde hair.

"Samuel, I am warning you: keep your distance from me. If you chase after me again, I am going to report you to the chancellor. So stay away!" Helen warned Samuel. She didn't want to have anything to do with him.

Helen Robert was from an average family of five children, but she was the only daughter. The four of her brothers were businessmen, and she was the youngest. At first, her parents didn't support her education at the university, but because of her intelligence, her father finally agreed for Helen to further her studies.

Helen didn't want to disappoint her mother, so she avoided relationships. At the age of 21, Helen Robert was still a virgin, and many of the students at Avalon University were aware because Helen didn't have a boyfriend.

"Chubby nerd!" they called her.

"What's Helen trying to prove? Why is Samuel Kingston chasing after that chubby nerd? Didn't he see other pretty women that he could possibly chase after? Why Helen?"

Helen heard the ongoing rumors and the insults flying around, but she didn't care to stare at the other students. She held her books to her chest and went back to her hostel, where she had four other roommates staying with her.

Bridget Black.

Anita Roland.

Cynthia Jackson.

Tasha Thompson.

Bridget and Anita were both 23-year-old brown-skinned ladies. They didn't like Helen because she was more focused on her studies and didn't like to attend parties with them.

However, Tasha was Helen's best friend, but unlike Helen, who was the youngest among them, Tasha was a 22-year-old lady, and she attended some of the university events.

While Helen was the only plus-sized one among them, Tasha was slim like Bridget and Anita.

"Helen, I saw Samuel chasing after you today. Ain't you going to give him a chance? A lot of girls will kill to have Samuel's attention, yet his whole attention is on you. Why can't you accept to date him? Please?" Tasha asked, holding on to Helen's hand when Helen returned from her class.

"But Tasha," Helen frowned as she refused.

"I do not want to have anything to do with a guy like Samuel. He changes his girlfriend every week since he joined in our first year. How can I date him? Don't talk to me about Samuel again. And if you are interested in him, you can go after him," Helen said as she refused to budge.

Tasha sighed. "It's fine. I honestly wish I was the one that Samuel was asking on a date. You are obviously missing out."

Helen sighed, not wanting to dwell on Samuel's topic. She went to her bunk bed to lie down as she was already exhausted after returning from her class.

Soon after, she fell asleep on the bed.

***

At the men's dormitory, Samuel was with his three best friends, Alex Benson, John Edward, and Eric White, as they stayed in the same room.

"What's up with you, Samuel? Have you finally won the bet?" John asked. He was a 25-year-old guy. His father was a senator, and he was a bad boy too and Samuel's best friend. While Alex and Eric were also among their team, they had not expected Samuel to accept the dating challenge with John because they knew that Helen was not Samuel's type of woman.

Samuel smiled as he sat on the bed in his room. "Just give me time, and I will surely get Helen."

"Give you time for how long? You already lost the bet because I saw you asking her out today again. That chubby nerd is so full of herself, and I just hate her," John ranted because he had tried to ask Helen to help him with one of his projects, but she refused, which led him to fail.

John had paid a few students to help him with his homework, but this particular subject needed Helen's help. Instead of helping him solve it like the prodigy that she was, as he offered to pay her 50,000—considering the highest that he had paid was 10,000—she refused. She declined his offer and embarrassed him publicly. Her words sliced his heart like a sword, telling him, "Why don't you read your text books and pass the exams yourself?"

John gritted his teeth as he remembered the poker face that Helen had given him.

Back to the present, Samuel smiled and said, "I am on the same boat as you, John. We have until our final-year graduation, which is next year, for the bet to conclude. If I get Helen, date her, and sleep with her, as the bet says, you will pay me 10 million. But if I lose, I will have to pay you the bet. Deal?"

"Yeah. Deal," John said, his voice full of seriousness, while Eric and Alex both shook their heads.

"You guys are crazy! Even if you give me 20 million, I cannot sleep with that chubby nerd, even though she got a pretty face. She is not my type. Damn it! I cannot imagine the thought of carrying her and making love to her. Count me out of your fụcking bet. I love to have my girlfriend slim and simple. Not that plus-sized nerdy one," Eric said. His father worked in a petroleum company, but he wanted to be a pharmacist in the future. They were all pharmacy students, but they knew that aside from Helen's chubby figure, the majority of the lecturers liked her.

"Even me too, I cannot imagine dipping my dïck in Helen's cave or having her sit on me and ride me like a cowgirl. She is going to break my waist. Samuel, I am going to advise you to reconsider your bet with John. John is obsessed with getting his revenge on Helen after she refused to help him do his homework, which resulted in his humiliation and his detention. So he wants to see her humiliated, and he is using you too," Alex said, his voice full of concern for his best friend too.

"Don't worry. I got this. I want to have Helen even if it's for a night. She is not my type, but that doesn't change the fact that she is a virgin compared to all the loose girls in this university. I want to know what it feels like to sleep with a virgin, even if it's once. I want to feel her virgin áss around my dïck, then I will break up with her. That's the deal," Samuel said, his lips curled up in a smile as he rendered his three best friends speechless.

"Fine. Do what you wish," they replied, as they were older than him. Samuel smiled and restrategized. "Trust me, I don't fail," he said with full confidence, believing that he would get Helen soon.

"Alright. We trust you," they agreed on the bet, hoping to see him succeed.
