POV Bella-
He steps towards me, mischief gleams in his eyes and the corners of his lips turn up a smirk." You think it's that easy, kitten? That I will just let you leave me? YOU ARE MINE! "
Before I am able to object, he grabs my hips and pulls me even closer, then kisses me hungrily, nibbling on my lips and sucking until I moan. I stared at him with widened eyes. I'm frozen in place. Xander Saint kissed me. XANDER SAINT KISSED ME! Why did he do that? His eyes shoot open, watching me and he smiles, leaving my mouth before traveling down my neck where he nibbles, bites, and sucks on my flesh, marking me as he goes along.
" Your taste is just as I imagined all these years and it drives me crazy." Oh God what is he doing? Why am I reacting to his touch this way? He’s my bully for Pete’s sake! He grabs my face in his hands, peering down at me, desire in his eyes, "You belong to me, kitten. Now anyone who doubts it will know you're mine"
I stared at him unblinking. Mine? What did he mean by that? Was he hinting at something? No, I'm definitely reading too much into it. He caresses my face and then he closes the distance between us. I put up my hand to push him away.
" You asshole you stole my first kiss! I can't believe you! Why do you think you can take whatever you want? I'm NOT yours! You have a girlfriend for one and you're an arrogant prick who thinks you own me or something. I would NEVER be with someone like you, Alexander Saint. You take and take and take. Let's face it, you're just a bully! Bullies don't get the girl! Bullies grow up to be bigger bullies, wife beaters, and alcoholics with anger issues! I want to be with someone who loves me, really LOVES me ,not someone like you!”
I watch his expression and it’s laced with anger and regret. I don’t care though, he’s hurt me so much. I continue yelling,
“You and I? I wouldn't have you even if you were the last guy on earth and our existence depended on us being together. I WOULD CHOOSE DEATH. I despise you and everything you stand for, so just leave me the fuck alone! It's my senior year and after this year I'm finally free from you."
I angrily pushed him away and ran for the door. I opened it when he stopped me in my tracks and slammed the door shut, startling me. " Kitten, Get ready because I'm coming for you. You had better watch behind you because I have eyes on you. Nobody makes a mockery of me. When I get you alone, kitten-" He walked right past me, not looking back. Leaving his threat to hang in the air makes me wonder what he has in store. I stare at his back as it disappears down the hall heading in the same direction as me, then I head to my first hour realizing I'm already late. I walked into the classroom and everyone turned to look at me.
I lower my eyes to the floor and start getting to my seat only to see that it’s occupied by Chad Trevor, then I slowly walk to the only seat available, my heart is in my throat as I realize it's right next to,
Yep you guessed it. . .Xander Frigging Saint! The same guy who I just managed to piss off even more than before. Lord help me....
POV Xander-
I can't believe what happened between Bella and I in the abandoned classroom. I can't forget the way she felt in my arms, the taste of her lips, her moan, oh man. The smell of her as we kissed. Her coconuts and french vanilla invaded my nostrils, heading straight to my groin. Why did I wait so long to kiss her? I have been missing out on this for seven years!
I can't believe that I made out with her. It was so...hot. Damn, I wanted to do things to her in that room that would make her beg me for more.
When I arrived this morning, I saw her walking up the sidewalk. She had gotten even more curves, barely able to hide her figure under her shrunken skirt and tight-fitting shirt. Oh man, I had to refrain myself so I didn’t lose it.
She always knew how to get my attention, but seeing all the guys staring at her, taking in all her curves and her long, tanned, toned legs wearing her Mary Janes and knee-high socks, I almost went over there and threw her over my shoulder to take her away from their gaze.
She looked like she was straight out of one of the many fantasies I have had about her since I found out about the birds and the bees and foreplay. So many thoughts entered my mind about what I'd do to that smoking-hot body of hers if ever given the chance.
Man, I'd have her screaming my name as I claimed her over and over. I really want her. She has no fucking idea what she does to me. I mean, Fuck, I'm hard right now. No other female has ever had this effect on me.
I tried to drink her away this summer, but it's kind of hard to go to a party where she's the conversation piece. Yep, you heard right. Bella's transformation was a top conversation piece at the parties and it just made me even more aware that I had feelings for her.
When I came to class today, Nate was looking at me with that 'I know what you did' look on his face. I took my seat in the back and noticed that Chad Trevor was sitting in front of me and Bella hadn't arrived yet. " Hey Chad, I'll pay you fifty bucks if you go up and take Bella's seat." He looks at me as I opened my wallet, then smiles and grabs the cash, then heads to the front. I sit in my seat with my hands folded behind my back waiting for her to arrive. You can't escape me kitten.
POV XanderI sat back and looked at Nate shrugging my shoulders. If Miss I think I'm better than everybody thinks she can get away from me, she's sadly mistaken. I am going to be the Bain of her existence. I am going to make her pay for mocking me. How could she say those things to me and think there'd be no consequences? When I get her alone, that girl is going to pay. As I'm deep in thought, Nate comes and sits behind me. I left a seat open directly in front of me for Bella. She'd had no other choice but to sit there." I saw you go into the abandoned classroom." I turn around and smirk at him, "Yeah, so?" He looks towards the front where Bella is staring confused at Chad who is in the chair she usually sits in, then back at me. " I saw who you went in there with. Anything you want to tell me?" I followed his gaze, then looked down at my desk, avoiding his eyes. " I know what you're thinking. Not that it’s any of your business who I go there with, but nothing happened." He shook his
POV Xander "Everything I need to make her life miserable. Her class schedules and where she works after school." We're walking out the classroom and Nate steps in front of me, blocking my way. I look at him and he's trying to keep me from seeing anything. " What?" I looked at him, my brow raised. He doesn't say anything, but his face says a lot. I sidestep him and my smile fades and is replaced by rage. She's walking down the hallway with Chad and he has his arm around her shoulder while she's tucked into his side. Gritting my teeth, I look at Nate, “What the fuck is Chad doing with her?" Nate steps in front of me as I am about to chase after them. " She's not your girl, Xan, she can date whoever she wants." I stare at him and grab his shirt pushing him up against the wall. How could he say that? He knows how I feel about her. He knows how I get. " She's mine, Nate. No other guy touches what's mine." Nate looks at me with disappointment, then wrestles away, "Dude, I know how you
POV Bella I can’t believe everything that happened. After the shower scenario, I avoided him like the plague for the next two days and, luckily, the weekend came and I had to work. I didn’t think he would find me here, but still somehow he found me. He always finds me. I was at work serving tables when my co-worker Carla said that she had to leave early and asked me to wait at the last table in section table 17. I didn’t think anything about it. I walked up to the table and pulled out my pad and pen, getting ready to jot down the order. “ Welcome to Montego’s, I’m Bella. What can I get for you tonight?” I hear a familiar chuckle. “ Are you on the menu, kitten?” I look up from my pad and am met with emerald green eyes and a devilish smile. No. Not here too. I hide my reaction with my pad then look at him with a fake smile. “ Ha ha ha, you’re sooo funny.” He grabs my hand and pulls me downward. “ I wasn’t joking, kitten. Are you offering me your services for tonight?” I pulled my
POV XanderI could tell by her reaction that I was the last person she expected to see tonight, but I knew she wouldn’t back out, she never missed a day or an opportunity to make money. When she asked what she could get for us tonight, I couldn’t hold back. Man, she got so upset at my comment. I was afraid she wouldn’t come back out, but I was surprised when she came back to the table and what she said. My kitten always surprised me.I had to hold back my anger when I saw how Chad and AJ were acting towards her; checking her out in front of me! I had thought Chad had gotten the picture when I smashed his face in on Thursday. Now I was going to have to talk to AJ, too. I mean, seriously they should know she’s mine. Well, soon they would, soon everyone would. I couldn’t help but smile at that. Only one more week and I couldn’t wait. The truth is I have been preparing for this for a very long time. I could not believe the day was finally arriving. I had been waiting since my father told
POV Xander“ What if I am?” Her voice broke through my thoughts and her words cut into my soul. “What are you going to do if I am dating another guy? A guy who shows me that I am special and that he actually sees me as b-beaut-iful. A guy who is kind and stands up for me. A guy who knows how to treat a girl. WHAT.IF.I.AM?”Her words hit me like a punch straight to the gut and I could no longer control the beast that was inside. I grabbed her face in my hands and smashed my lips against hers, putting everything I had into that kiss. I kissed her with an uncontrolable thirst that only she could quench. I nibbled on her bottom lip until she opened for me and then I dove my tongue deep into her depths, exploring every inch of her as I stole her oxygen. I grabbed her closer and, with one arm, held her in place as I traveled down her jawline, peppering kisses along the way. I spoke against her neck as I ravished her,“ YOU.ARE.MINE.BELLA.QUEEN”She moaned into my chest and it went straight
POV Xander After I watched Bella walk away, I noticed AJ and Chad looking at her ass and that was it for me. I slammed my fist down and looked at them. My eyes darkened. " Bella's mine. Don't either of you two even think about it! Chad, did I not teach you a good enough lesson on Wednesday?" They took a look at their bills, then both of them gave the other a look. " Dude, you've seen the ass on her. I'm sorry, but if your ass isn't hitting that, then I say she's open season. Chad agrees with me, right Chad?" I laughed, then grabbed AJ by his shirt and pulled him from his chair. " You don't think I can hit that, is that it?" AJ shared a glance toward the kitchen. " What's happened to you, Saint? Usually you'd already have hit that and be on to your next victim. What's so different about Bella? I mean sure she's hot as fuck but this isn't like you. You even broke up with Samantha Craig." I just smiled to myself. Soon they will know. Soon everyone will know. Bella Queen is mine. My jaw
POV Bella My feet couldn’t take me away quickly enough. I could hear him in the distance calling my name, but I wasn’t going to play his game anymore. I would never allow him to use me, ridicule me, bully me ever again! I got to the gates and as they were busy with the commotion he was causing by yelling at me, I snuck through and headed off down the road. Constantly looking behind me, my vision was blurring due to the tears that poured out. How could I be so stupid? I fell for it and I told myself, told him it would never happen, yet, here I am in this predicament because of my foolishness. Because my stupid heart wanted to believe that he actually wanted something. I dialed numbers getting busy signals until finally my aunt Vicky answered. I told her through tears what had happened and explained to her that I would meet her at the nearest gas station. It was time for me to once and for all say goodbye to Harlowe. I was done, though, and if his damned uncle wouldn’t OK with my tran
POV Xander I was out searching all over for her after she ran away from my home. Why would she run away like that? What the fuck happened? I thought everything was going good. Well, until fucking Sam showed up and messed up everything. I couldn’t think, I couldn’t eat, and she haunted me in my dreams. The look she gave me was the worst. She looked so upset when she looked at me. I am just going to have to get it out of her when I see her. I know what she said but she knows I can’t stay away from her. After Nate showed up to help me out in the search, I let Nate know what happened and he is checking in on her while I meet with my father. Another meeting that I MUST attend. Bella will be turning eighteen soon and the preparations must be made. My father is with the lawyers right now and I am patiently in his study with him when Nate calls. I declined the call. Nate knows better than to interrupt business. I am listening to my father go on about the arrangements and finalizing the agre
