~They stare at me, while I crave you.~Arcane POV:I was getting late from school. Last night, I couldn't sleep well so it wasn't easy to get up early either. I brushed my teeth, washed my face and changed my clothes before hurrying downstairs. However, upon seeing the smiling and kind face of Vincent, I felt like my whole world had crumbled. Bitterness spread in my mouth and I rolled my eyes at him. "Hey, Arc." Vincent called me. For the first time, he was calling me with what Mom calls me and to be honest, I did not like it coming from his mouth at all. I turned towards them and glanced at Mom. Eye bags around her eyes were sagging but there was a smile at the corner of her lips. While my eyes drifted from her face to her hand that was resting on the table. A huge bruise on it could be seen from far. 'My gut feeling wasn't wrong. Vincent is really up to something with Mom. He makes sure her face doesn't have any suspicious signs but looks at her hand...." My heart clenched and the

~I want to taste your lips.~ Arcane POV: Today is homecoming. I took a shower and took the dress which I bought from my closet. I held it in my hands and looked at it. When I got that dress, I loved it but not anymore. It was Vincent's money with which I bought it and right now, I am hating that man. 'Shall I wear it or not?' I tried to come up with a decision. But it proved to be really hard. "Abby will kill me if I won't wear it and everything at this place is his. I cannot cut him off." I tried to think deeply of this problem. My whole closet is filled with the things which he got for me. I live under his roof and eat the food which he puts on my plate. There isn't any way that I can push him to the side. "Let's just wear it and get over with the night." I sighed and took the dress to the bathroom with me. I changed into a dress and tied my hair in a rough bun. It wasn't my intention to put an effort into prepping for the night but I did it anyway. I dabbed some makeup on

~It's all yours, I won't stop you from coming.~Arcane POV:I spent the night at Abby's. Even though I couldn't sleep, it was a lot better than staying at Jone's residence. The soft touch and taste of his lips is still alive on mine. I have been dying to feel his touch on my body however, the circumstances are different. The second, I will get my hands on solid evidence, I am going to report them to the police for domestic abuse and take off the mask which they are wearing in front of the public. They deserve this."Are you up?" Abby stretched and asked me from beside in a half sleepy voice."Yeah." I nodded and glanced at her. She turned towards me and put her hands under her face. "What's going on, Arc? I thought you liked him then why are you making a big deal out of it? You should be jumping around in happiness." She inquired and I had no answer to give her. I looked away. "Arcane." She held my shoulder and made me look at her. I pursed my lips tightly because I did not have an

~If we will ever get lost, I will tame your wildness.~Xavier POV:Today was the match day and we happened to have a worse teamwork. Marcus never passed a puck to me while I skated like a madman as I tried to get it from him. The opponent team took advantage of that and we lost in the most humiliating way possible. "WHAT THE FU*K IS WRONG WITH YOU TWO? ARE YOU HIGH?" Coach roared at the top of his lungs, causing a deadpan silence in the dressing room. My eyes were glued to the ground and I suppressed myself because I wasn't in the position to defend myself. "I told you if you continue to behave this way, I will kiss your a**es out of the ice." He reminded us of the threat which we to be honest did not take seriously. "How dare you drag my team down?"He kicked us in the ankles. I groaned internally due to the sharp wave of the pain. "I am never putting both of you in the same team ever again." He pointed with the index finger and made it clear. "I will see what I can do more." I cle

~You want me to glaze your hole?~Xavier POV:In the next matches, Marcus and I played like how team members should be playing. We left the final decision in Arcane hands and promised that we would accept it.However, I was distracted all the time. I couldn't stop myself from finding her in the audience although I know that she isn't there but it doesn't hurt to hope for a miracle. "Hit the damn puck." Mike shouted and snapped me back to reality. With the time difference of nanoseconds, I hit it otherwise the opponent would have stolen it from me. The match was already a close call and it takes only such mistakes to let the win slip away from your hands. "Fu*k." I hit it and cursed. But I smiled upon seeing that I was able to make a goal. "Yes." I muttered and soon, I was pulled into a bear hug by my teammates. I glanced at the audience. Some of the girls were wearing our jerseys. Even though we are just a bunch of high schoolers, our team is the best in this category so we have ple
