Chapter 11    I stare at this man in front of me as he says these words. I hate to admit how he makes me feel. I part my lips to say something but nothing comes out. Judah smirks, satisfied with my reaction as he turns to leave. I watch him go to his kitchen and I follow.   He pulls out a cancer stick and lights it without once looking at me. A cloud of smoke surrounds him. I don't fancy smokers but Judah makes everything look perfect. " I… uh… I wanted to…. You know…" shit, why am I stuttering.    Judah chuckles and turns to look at me, flicking the ash on the ashtray that sits on his counter. He puts back the stick in his mouth and walks to my shuddering form. He grabs the hem of my hoodie and pulls me to him." We can make this easy for us." He says with the stick in his mouth. I want to run my hands down his tousled locks but I fight back the urge.  &nb

    Chapter 13   I rush out of the bathroom and follow Judah. I hasten my steps and try to catch up with him. Damn his long legs.    Judah stops by his car and opens the passenger's side door. I stop and try to catch my breath." Okay, I get it, you're tall and all that shit, you don't have to walk so fast."   He rolls his eyes at my word and ushers me to enter. Oh wait, he just opened the car door for me. I thought the last guy who opened the car door for a girl died six thousand years ago. Judah must be his reincarnation. I mean Todd doesn't open the door for you, you just gotta get in yourself." Get in, will you?"" Yeah, I will Judah, breathe." I tell him and enter his car. He sighs loudly for me to hear it and he shuts the door once I'm seated." So where are we going?" I ask Judah once he's inside. Seatbelt still not fastened." Somewhere, Margaret."" I got

Chapter 15      I stand outside and look at the dark. I'm still angry and scared at the same time. I pull out my phone and check my time, it's past nine already.      I sigh and begin walking. There's no damn car on the road and this is more difficult than I thought. Maybe I shouldn't have fought with Todd if I'm gonna end up being stranded. Same time I am glad I told him my mind. How he's been an asshole all this time and acting like a control freak. Telling me who to be friends with.    I continue walking down the lonely street as I look around.  I look through my contacts, no one to call. Not even one person. Maybe I should have asked Chloe and Thomas for their numbers if I'm gonna make it out alive from this street.   And Judah, this is the point where he's supposed to be useful. I can't believe I told Todd to his face that I'd fuck Judah gladly. What was I even thinking? Judah ma

Chapter 17     My head hurts and it feels like some people are drumming against my head. I try to open my eyes but I hold my head instead. Everything feels blank as I try to open my eyes. Everything seems blurry and I can hear little muffled voices. I sit up at once and hold my head in my hands groaning." God…"     I blink my eyes and look around this unfamiliar room. This isn't my room. The wall is a light pink with pictures of Beyoncé pasted on it. The pain is terrible, I feel like my head's gonna fall off. And then I remembered what happened. How my head was slammed against my car window by Todd. " You need to take this." A familiar voice says.   I clean my eyes with one hand while the other holds my head. Diana smiles at me holding a glass of water and pills." What happened?" My voice croaks. I take the water and the pills from her as I swallow it dry, pushing the p

Chapter 19 " You know you're this popular girl in college but you don't really know about it." Diana says as we walk down the hallway of the hospital.   I chuckle at Diana's words. After that conversation with that creepy scarred man, I had to make sure we left the Cafe that very minute. Diana stopped me earlier and told me what happened to Todd. And I'm suspecting just one person. Judah." I don't know what you're talking about. Did you call Genevieve and report Todd?"  " Yeah, I did. That prick needed a warning. Now I'm wondering who made him hospitalized." We stopped at Todd's hospital room and I'm bewildered at his sight.   Who the hell would wanna beat up someone to that position. Diana pushes open his door to the end. I turn to look at Diana as she tries to muffle her laugh. I nudge her and she smiles. Charlotte sits next to her son as she sobs. I don't even know why I'm here. Maybe to st
