Unshaken Bond

Ambushed

Carina POV

After the incident with the charming prince, I couldn't get him off my mind. Though he was cold and I was scared, I was so drawn to him.

Dude was so perfect, his eyes, his sharp nose, his thin lips, his pale skin.

God! I really don't know how he will look without his clothes on. I would like to touch his chest, I would like him to fondle my… I was still in my world of fantasy when Carla interrupted me.

"Are you there, you've been spacing out for a while now".

"Sorry about that, I was just thinking of my friends back at my old school". I lied skillfully.

"Your face is all red like a tomato. Tell me, were you thinking about your first kiss or your boyfriend". She bloated out.

"Carla, you are so bad". I screamed while rushing to the restroom to spill some water on my face.

I looked at my face in the mirror and I was so red. Oh no! I can't believe I'm already crushing on a guy I don't even know his name.

Class went on and on until the long awaited bell signaled the end of the final class. With relief, I swiftly packed my books and joined the stream of students pouring out of the school.

I walked home instead of calling my grandma to pick me up.

I was so exhausted.

I met grandma Fiona in the living room.

"Good afternoon grandma". I greeted

" You look so tired, I hope school went well." she asked".

"Good, no, it was bad". I replied as I collapsed on a sofa in the living room.

"Why good and bad". She asked while looking at me.

"I don't like the school, I want to go back to my old school". I replied instead.

"That's not an answer yet". She said

"Okay, today wasn't that bad, I got to meet two hot guys and Carla, my first friend in Willow Creek".

"See, I told you it won't be that bad. Try to socialize but also be careful". She advised me.

"Go and freshen up, I will prepare your food". She said

And just like that, the day came to an end.

_

I woke up very early the next day, with bags under my eyes because I couldn't sleep properly due to my nightmares. I feel like it got worse since I moved into Willow Creek.

I got ready early and decided to walk to school.

I walked into the giant gate, I could feel the fresh breeze blowing all over my skin. Wow! The school has such nice views, I didn't have the time to check it out yesterday because I was late.

I was heading straight to my locker when the bitch that was with Vito yesterday blocked my way. Carla told me she is Elena blues and Vito's girlfriend, she asked me to avoid her and her girls.

She wore a fierce look while looking at me maliciously and I knew instantly that she was here for trouble.

"Listen up bitch, stay the fuck away from my boyfriend, stop trying to make him notice you unless you want me to end you". She spat.

I tried to defend myself and ask her who she was referring to but she didn't even let me speak. They left, not without opening my locker to throw my things everywhere and pushing me to the ground.

Waves of fury, vengeance and loathing washed over me, I was definitely gonna take my revenge. I said before getting up and picking my things.

I quietly walked down the hallway with the things I will be needing for the day when I saw the last person I wanted to see. I wanted to turn around and leave but he caught me right on time.

The so-called Vito was walking directly to me. God! What does he want now? hasn't he already caused me trouble by making his bitch to notice me? I thought.

"Hey good morning". He greeted

"Good morning to you too". I responded

"Why do you have bags under your eyes?" That was his next question.

Seriously, how did he even notice? I applied some makeup on my face before leaving the house.

"Oh! I didn't sleep properly last night". I gave him my honest response.

"You know I could cuddle you to sleep all night". He blunted out.

The students around us started coughing, I was so red and embarrassed.

"By the way, I'm sorry about yesterday, I didn't mean to go harsh on you. I had a quarrel at home that morning. He

apologized.

The students gave loud gasps while looking at us. I was surprised as well, because Carla told me how rotten his attitude was.

"Yeah it's fine we all have our bad days". I said.

I was about to walk away when he spoke up again.

"Can I give you a ride after school?". I looked at him surprised.

More students gathered, gasping and murmuring.

"No". I immediately refused and walked away with Carla.

"What was that about?". Carla asked.

"I don't know, I should be asking you that question. I thought you said he's bad, why is he acting nice to me?" I asked

"Maybe, he's into you now. Perhaps, that's why Elena came to warn you this morning". She said

"Hmm this is just my day two in school and one of the hottest guys is already drooling over me". I laughed while saying that.

"It's not funny Carina, can't you see that's gonna be a big trouble for you. Not only will Elena come for you, other girls will hate you because they also have their eyes on him. When he bullies anyone, they will get revenge by bullying you". She said

"Don't you get it, that dude is fuckin rich and powerful in Willow Creek, you will get yourself in deeper shit if you get involved with him". She warned.

"Oh wow! You never told me he's a big shot, anyways, I have no interest in him". Let's head to class before we will be late. I said.

The day went so quick, that in a couple of hours I was already on my way home.

Later, that evening I was watching some series with my grandma when Amy called. I couldn't hear her properly so I went outside to get a network signal.

I kept moving farther into the nearby forest while murmuring how poor the network here was.

I didn't realize that I was being watched by someone or an animal until it jumped down from the tree. I got really scared while saying my last prayers because really, I thought it was an animal.

But when I turned around I realized it was Vito. I sigh in relief, at least it was a human but I never knew an animal would have even been better than the so-called Vito because the next thing he did got me really scared.

He walked closer to me while saying stupid things like how much he wanted to taste my lips, suck my blood and have me beneath him.

I tried to run but he caught me. I was so scared that I started crying and screaming.

I struggled in his hold but he was way stronger than me.

He pushed me to the ground while kissing every part of my body like a wild beast. I cried and screamed, praying for someone to hear me.

He tore my clothes and was about having his way with me when my Savior arrived. It was no other than my new crush.

He threw him across the trees, while growling.

"How dare you touch her". He snarled.

I could feel the air around us changing.

His blue eyes automatically changed to bright red right in front of me while Vito grew fangs.

If someone had told me this, I would have said it's just Halloween shits but it was happening in front of me. My fear intensified, I couldn't move, I just stood still like a statue.

"Oh God! Who are these people?" I said before passing out.
