All Chapters of Jacob Hale: Enemy’s Secret Toy: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

KennyThe dining hall buzzed with the usual loud noises from students. There were loud laughter, tray’s clattering, the occasional shout from the house masters trying to get everyone to be quiet. But I wasn’t having any of that… not today. I stabbed my fork into the overcooked chicken, my eyes burning tiny holes into Jacob’s stupid fucking… perfect head. He was sitting at the usual table he’d chosen over ours. His table was close to the window, and the sun made his skin glow like honey. It made me so.. mad.And across from him, was Daniel fucking Cobbs with his friends. Since when did Daniel and his friends sit at the same table with Jacob and all the other losers there?Daniel… confident, wealthy, influential… untouchable leaned forward, whispering something in Jacob’s ear that made him laugh. That soft, quiet laugh, the one that made him look like some cute little saint. The one that made even teachers fall in love with him. The one that made me want to go over there and slam my

DanielHe wasn’t standing just a few rows away from where I sat, looking at me, unsure if he should go or stay. For a second, we just stared at each other, neither of us speaking a word. His hands balled into fists, trembling at his sides. Then he took some steps forward and then stopped. “You’re skipping first period.”“And so are you… clearly.” I shrugged.He took a deep breath, then a quick laugh. “I guess I am.”There was another silence. The air between us felt thick, like it could land on us like a rock any moment. “What are you doing here, Jake? I finally asked, my eyes flickering around the room.“I saw you leave, so I followed. Just wanted to make sure you’re okay.”The words pierce through my fragile heart. Because that was Jacob Hale. No matter how many men he kissed, he’d always come running to see if I was okay. Maybe he cared, but even if that were true, I didn’t deserve it.All I ever did was control him, bully him… use him. “I’m fine.” The words came out sharper t

JacobThe first time Daniel laid a hand on me, it sure as hell wasn’t a gentle touch.No. It was far from it. It was controlling, claiming.And now we were in this weird dorm room with a light that kept flickering on and off like it had a hangover and a window that never stayed shut.Daniel had suggested we go there, so we could have some time alone, without Sarah or Mr Richard barging in.And he was right. Mr Richard wouldn’t stay away these days, Sarah too… and we needed some time alone, and away from all the drama.The air smelled of Daniel’s expensive cologne, sweaty teenagers, and a bunch of bad decisions. I had downed two drinks already, trying my best to ignore how he was eyeing me from the other side of the room. But the truth of the matter was that I noticed.Daniel had a way of watching that made it seem like he owned the place, which he kind of did, but it felt like he… owned me, too.Everyone else was busy getting rowdy, making a mess of themselves, but he was cool, leani

JacobHad no idea what I was getting myself into when I signed the contract. More so, how things would turn out when I promised to stay loyal to him alone. The feelings growing inside me, how much I liked what he was doing to me scared me. Was I always this twisted and damaged and it only took meeting Daniel to realize that. I tried my best to avoid him, I really did. But two whole days? That was like saying you won't eat chocolate when there's a whole bar right in front of you. I ignored his texts, deleted some as if that would solve anything.I didn't bother with the photos he sent, and even avoided looking in the mirror to hide from the bruise he'd left on my neck. It was still there, all purple and sad, like my body was holding onto him even when I didn't want to.It was on the third day that I finally decided it was time for me to come out from hiding. I went to class early, hiding in the back like that one kid with no friends. I had my hoodie up and headphones plugged in, hopi

Classmate: WillI wasn’t a stalker or anything, but Daniel Cobbs? That guy just begged to be hated. Strutting around school like he owned the place, acting all high and mighty. Even though he kind of owned the place, it didn’t give him the right to treat the rest of us like some trash. God! I hated him. The dude was like the golden boy of the school, and not just because his family owned the school and half of New York. He was also the top of the class, if not the whole school. He was everyone's crush, even the ones who weren’t gay. It was enough to make one want to puke.But then I noticed something. He was hanging around Jake all the time like some fucking lost puppy. And Jacob? He wasn’t the typical Daniel fanboy. He was everything Daniel hated and bullied people for. He was audacious, stubborn, and extremely smart, and that was when I knew what had to be done… and how soon.The time Jacob walked into that empty classroom, I’d had my doubts, maybe Daniel was using him like eve
