Thank you for reading❤️
Raven stares back at them with wide eyes.The first thought she processes is that she's in deep shit.It will only take a couple of seconds for them to find the drugs in her bag where she had hurriedly kept it in the cab.After that, she knows that she's done.The news would probably spread and she could even be taken in for questioning.It would be a mess.Which is why she hopes it remains in her imagination alone.There is no way she will allow them to search her.“No.”Carla tilts her head with a frown, looking as though it is even absurd to hear those words.“No?”Yet, Raven stands her ground.“It is past school hours so, no, you have no authority to search me right now.” She explains, keeping her tone firm.However, it doesn't change how her heart thuds against her chest and the turning of her stomach.If she gets caught, she cannot even begin to think of how she can get herself out of it.And there was no way in hell that Carla would listen to her anyway, she already knows that
Raven tilts her head at his words, her lips pulling into a smirk.A glance behind her shows the professor with his jaw set in a clench, clearly displaying his anger. It seems as though he has chosen this moment to finally show his true colours.She knows fully well that he is very capable of doing as he says. Professors hold that sort of power over students and he seems to be taking the route of abusing his authority right now.Even if she takes it up with the school board, he still has a huge influence on the board with his high position but if that is the price she has to pay to stop whatever evil deed he was using her for, then so be it.She never came to college with a degree as the principal thing in her mind anyway, she had just fled to the farthest place from the pack to escape the memories that place reminded her of.Her childhood, Draco’s first confessions, all their favourite things, their hangout spots, all of it. Everything in the pack reminded her of Draco, and at that mo
“Professor McCall wants to see you, and it would be best if you come with me,” Linda is blunt and straight to the point. Raven stares at her for a moment without a word, but she knows what she has to do. There is no way she can possibly escape this now.“Let's go,” she mutters with a small frown before walking past her to the passenger side.The professor is already waiting when she arrives at his office.“You’re finally here, this time at least.”The expression on his face is nothing close to his usual friendly look and she realises that he has been wearing a mask with her all along. He does not seem to care about maintaining it anymore though.“Now, what am I hearing about a resignation? I thought we had a common goal, Raven?” he says in this eerie tone that creeps her out.“I am no longer interested in working on the project,” she answers simply, keeping her tone calm and polite.“What do you mean by you are no longer interested in working on the project? Do you know how many thing
“What’s the matter?” Raven asks with a confused frown.The man only gives her a blank look in return.“We would like it if you'd accompany us back to the station.”She opens her mouth to protest. But the second man quickly cuts her off.“You can either walk with us, or we will take you with cuffs around your wrist. Make your pick.”The whispers from the other students follow her as she walks out of the cafeteria with the men by her sides and she can feel the eyes of the other students boring into her back.Raven's mind races as she tries to figure out what could have led to this sudden interrogation. Could it have been the discovery of Scott's death? But what does that have to do with her?When they arrive at the station, she is immediately led into a small room with only a metal table and three chairs.The lights in the room were shining brightly and she was careful about not looking up at it."Please, have a seat," the first officer says.Raven obeys, sitting down with her hands fol
The sight of Carla opposite him leaves a bad taste at the back of her tongue but that is not what bothers her most. It is the look that Draco is giving her. A look of recognition of Royce and shock that they are together, he can lie to himself all he wants that he is some Rex guy but that look doesn’t lie. Carla notices his distracted moment, following his gaze to Raven and Carla’s lips curl in distaste before she taps his hand to bring his attention back to her. Raven looks back at Draco, gauging him. She notices it all, the way his hands are tightened into a fist, the way his jaw is set in a frown. If she did not know any better, she would say he is jealous seeing her with another man or perhaps one that he knows. “What are you going to get?” Royce asks beside her, grabbing her attention. She quickly looks away from Draco, noticing Royce is unaware of his presence. “Anything you’re getting,” she replies, taking another quick glance at Draco before looking at the overhead menu on
Raven steps out of the car and glances around, recognising Royce’s location to be an old railway track, no longer in use, by the looks of it. Her gaze is snatched by the sight of Royce undressing on the other side and she lets her gaze stay on him for a while, noticing how sculpted his body is with defined muscles and handsome features as he takes his shirt off and for the first time, she does not mind admitting that he looks rather attractive. As Royce puts his hand on the bands of his pants to pull it down, Raven quickly looks away, her heart racing slightly and her cheeks go red. Although she should not be affected since nudity is a thing common among their kind, it just feels weird to her. Royce seems to take notice of her demeanour, letting out a chuckle. “What's wrong? don't like what you see?” His tone is teasing and half-serious. Raven shakes her head, feeling her cheeks grow even hotter than before. “It's not that. It's just…” She tries to explain, still very conscious
