Chapter 15: 15

DAISY

“Daisy, what took you so long?“ Suzy gestured at me to come to sit at the empty seat next to her. “I was beginning to get worried,“

“I'm sorry. I just lost my way. You know I didn't take a map with me,“ I smiled, sliding into the seat.

“Are you okay? Your eyes –“

“Yes, Suzy, I'm okay, I just sprinkled lots of water on my face.“

“But they look puffy like you've been crying,“ She observed me closely, running a finger under my eyes.

I looked away with a quick nod, reassuring her again that I was okay, and that she was just being delusional.

She finally gave it a rest, and soon the teacher came in, and the class began.

Drake and Jake were in the class but were seated at the farther end of the hall. One time, I glanced their way and they welcomed my stare with a smirk. I quickly looked away.

The class had potential and would have had me hooked if I'd listened to it a bit. But I was distracted. I was buried in thoughts and only reconnected with reality when Suzy tapped my shoulder.

”It's time for the next class,“ She informed. I nodded and left with her.

She was having Chemistry and I was trapped in History. The first class we weren't having together.

Drowned in thoughts, squeezed between two plumpy guys, and having to listen to the ancient Greeks and Jews. It was hell.

After what seemed like an hour, the teacher left and I was headed to English class.

Thankfully, Suzy was already there and had saved me a seat.

”History was terrible.” I whined, resting my head on her shoulder. “It was worse without you in it,“

“Don't be such a crybaby.“ She laughed, rubbing the side of my face with her hand.

“But it's true,“ I sat up, nudging her playfully. My moment with Suzy was short-lived as Victoria walked in with her girls. The smile drained from my face.

Suzy nudged me back, unaware of my change in expression. Her arm brushed past my ribs and it awakened the pains that lingered there from my fall earlier.

“Ouch,“ I winced, bending slightly at the pains.

“Daisy, are you alright?“ Suzy asked frantically.

I nodded, forcing a smile. “I'm fine. Just kidding,“

“God, you got me there,“ she pouted, making a dramatic exhale. ”What's wrong?“ she finally asked, and followed my gaze. Landed on Victoria and her minions, chitchatting at their corner. ”Holy shit! Now I have to share English with her?“

“Is Victoria as bad as you say she is?“ I asked. Had to know who I was up against if I intend to foolishly fall for Logan's seductions.

“Words ain't enough to describe how monstrous she is. And her minions, Kiera, Sasha, and Xena, they're equally as bad,“

“Do you think she'll go as far as killing someone who gets in her way?“I asked, imagining the worst scenario.

“She'll do anything, anything at all. So it's best not to get in her way. You've done an awesome job over the years in avoiding the 'four horsemen'. Now you should try to avoid Victoria and her minions. “

Suzy's words got me a lot more agitated. I was already in Victoria's bad books, and if I dive further into what I'm beginning to feel for Logan, then I'd be at war with her. The sad thing was, that I had no chance of winning.

The classes went on pretty fast and soon it was lunchtime. Suzy had gone to check out some books in the library for the group project. It was just me, striding the hallway alone to my locker.

I brushed past the thousands of students in the hallway. I'd just finished putting my books away when I got accosted by Jake and Drake.

“Hey Omega,“ Jake whispered into my ears with a grin. “So what are you now, the side chick, the fling, or the sex slave?“

“Has to be the sex slave. She's no match for Logan's flings, and lacking in so many ways to be a side-chick.“

I closed my locker and bowed my head. My eyes were already warming up tears and I'll be dead if they saw it.

“Please excuse me,“ I said, not wanting to stick around much longer to be taunted.

“Not so fast,“ They blocked my way. “We just wanna talk,“ Drake chirped in.

“Yeah, just talks. We ain't allowed to hurt you anymore, so, don't worry about that,“

“Huh?“ I looked up surprisingly. “You won't hurt me anymore?“

“No. Logan asked us to back off. So literally, the dude's the only one who's gonna hurt you from now on,“

“Yeah, he's gonna have all the fun alone. Such a greedy asshole,“ Drake chuckled, jamming knuckles with Jake.

Hearing them say their physical torture on me was over made my heart skip in delight. But almost immediately, my heart sank.

Physical torture was over, but now they've leveled up and will be pulling hard and wickedly at my heartstrings.

They were advancing to emotional torture, and it was so much worse than physical torture.

I should know. I've been crying a whole lot lately. It was threatening to give me a mental breakdown.

“What exactly were you gonna go do with Logan in the restroom?“ Jake asked, a crooked smile hanging at the corner of his lips.

“Yeah, I'm curious. We both are,“ Drake gestured at the both of them with his hands.

”Shouldn't you be asking Master that?” I muttered, crimson from embarrassment.

“Nah, he wouldn't say. If we hadn't recognized his writing, I'm sure he wouldn't have admitted that the note was from him,“

“Victoria knows?!” I gasped in fright.

“No, dumbass. He admitted it to just us.“

I puffed in relief. “I should go,“ I tried again to excuse myself.

“Be careful, Omega. Logan will have your head if you ruin his relationship with Victoria,“ Jake said.

”Yeah, and do watch some porn videos. So you don't come off short when Logan demands your pussy,“

I walked past them in fast strides that I hadn't realized I was bumping into someone.

“Geez, Daisy. Take it easy,“ Suzy fought to get back her balance.

“I'm sorry.“ I quickly blinked back my tears.

“Are you alright?“ She looked over my shoulder. “What did they say to you?“

I turned around and the guys were still standing there, with taunting smiles.

“Nothing. Absolutely nothing.“ I replied and pulled Suzy by the hand. “Let's get going.“

“Okay, but the cafeteria is this way,“ She took a left turn and I followed suit.

We walked a while before we arrived at the cafeteria. It was swamped by a lot of students and the noises were deafening.

“Go have a seat. I'll just bring our meals,“ Suzy said and headed to the canteen.

I was awestruck by the cafeteria and I couldn't help but stare excessively.

A gasp escaped me as I slipped on something wet and fell right into a tray of hot noodles. It burnt hard on my face, but the shrieks that followed weren't mine.

“What is wrong with you?!“ Xena yelled, gasping at the mess the noddles made on her dress.

“OMG, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Oh, God…“ I was in trouble. I knew it. Victoria and the other girls were still holding their trays. But they were mad with rage.

“Go to hell!“ Victoria sputtered, throwing her tray at me. The whole content descended on me but I was quick to shut my eyes.

“You're so dead, clumsy!“ Kiera yelled, pushing me to the floor and grabbing my hair in a tight grip.

I was struggling to free from her hold but she had a tight grip. I could hear Suzy pleading that she let me go, but I think she got Victoria's yell instead.

But then, Kiera's hands were jerked away from my hair and I hurried to my feet.

“That's enough, Kiera,“ Charles repeatedly told her, holding her tightly in his arms.

“Let me go!“ Kiera yelled.

“Babe, that's enough, or you're gonna get detained.“ Charles cautioned.

That was enough to calm her down a bit.

“Are you okay?“ Suzy asked, her eyes glistening in tears

“Go wash up, Daisy “ Charles said. It was the first time he'd called me by my name. Of course, he wouldn't call me 'Omega' in front of these humans.

”I'll go with you,“ Suzy held my hand.

“No, please. I wanna go alone,“ I walked out of the cafeteria, ignoring the laughter and insult hurled at me.

I got to the restroom and washed off the mess from my face. My clothes were ruined. I doubt there was any way I could wash off all the stains.

“You came,“ A hoarse voice whispered against my nape, sending warm chills down my spine.

I felt his hands slide up my skirt and brushed off my panties, flicking my female area.

I gasped, jerking away from him but he roughly pulled me back. Held my hair in a firm grip and had my back against the sink as he sealed his lips on mine.
