Lahat ng Kabanata ng Eden High Series: Kabanata 131 - Kabanata 140

All day at school I geared myself up for what was to come later. I was my usual bubbly self as Jace drove me home, chatting away about nothing and everything. My stomach felt queasy but I had to go for it. It was my only chance. I built up my courage and got the ball rolling. If he didn't knock my head off I just might pull this off.I had to get it right though, so I schooled myself and prepared for hell to break loose. What I was about to do could certainly blow up in my face, but I had to remind myself that it was for the best. Mandy was never going to leave us alone, I know that now and if I didn't do something, he would and that could only end badly for him. His last brush with the law was too close for comfort.That tramp had almost convinced them that he'd harmed her and as much clout as his dad had, I wasn't sure how much longer that would hold out. If she was good enough to fool them once, I'm afraid next time she'd do an even better job of it. I can't let that happen. Aft

"Hey Red, come here a minute." I guess Jace was right they were up to something. If I'd had any doubts, the sudden silence when I walked into the room was a dead giveaway."Hey this is girls only, no balls allowed.""Very cute, does mom and dad know you talk like that?" She looked around me like she was looking for something or someone. I smirked at her before crooking my finger at Red. "This won't take long I just need a few minutes alone with my girl. I'll let her get back to the coven soon I promise." I got a round of one-finger salutes for that dig. She looked at her friends with her face red before following me out of the room. I took her hand and led her down the hall to my room. The light under my parents' door was out and all was quiet except for the light din from the TV in Sian's room.It was her first time visiting my room and her hesitance was well understood. I squeezed her hand before closing the door. "Celibacy, remember? Don't worry. I didn't bring you in here

I know Mandy's nothing but a skank, and that in itself doesn't make her a danger to anyone other than the unsuspecting men she catches in her web. But when it comes to Sian I think she poses a whole other kind of threat. A serious one! One, that no one else seems to have caught onto but me. It's that blonde wide-eyed innocent shit she pulls in public that has most people fooled. But I've seen her underbelly, something she doesn't know yet, and maybe that's why she still thinks she can pull the wool over my eyes.If she thinks I'm going to spend the rest of my life protecting my woman from her obsessive ass she's dumber than I gave her credit for. I'll just as soon off her ass and be done with it, or better yet, let Track have her. He's been offering to make her disappear for a good year now.He's also part of the reason I'm sitting out here like this. His call earlier had a hint of urgency that spooked the hell out of me. Until then I was thinking I was gonna have to spank Sian'

I knew we were all just killing time, waiting until the coast was clear, but we were too restless to settle down to do so much as play a game. I fought off going to the bathroom to throw up I don't know how many times, and the more time went by the more I rethought what I was about to do. Not only because I hate having anything to do with Mandy, but because I knew Jace was going to have a cow when he finds out, and he will find out.I was tempted to call him, just to hear his voice. But I knew if I did I'd give myself away. I still can't believe he knows me so well already. I never really let myself think about his time with her, but I know if he was half as intense with her as he is with me, there was a good reason for her actions. Once you've felt that, been touched by his fire, it would be damn near impossible to find that with anyone else. I know I wouldn't be able to move on after him. The very thought makes me sick to my stomach. I listened to the others telling tall tales

It was deliberately done, not an accident. Those words kept running through my head, leaving a sickening feeling in the pit of my gut. I'd seen it myself but until the inspector said the words out loud, I'd held out hope that my suspicions were wrong.If she'd been in there...no, better not go there or I'll lose it for sure. And I was afraid that if I gave into the rage that I barely had leashed, I wouldn't come back from it. No one has to tell me that she was the target. That whatever went down here tonight was directed at her. So what now? Are they gonna try again?What do I have to do to protect her? They got to her once I'll be damned if I'm gonna let them get that close to her again. Whoever this was, whatever this was, I know it was about me and that shit just kills me. I wish the fuckers would just come after me, but I knew that they won't, because that would be too easy.I've always known that Mandy was behind her attack. I knew that she'd hired someone to do her dirty wo
