Caged By My Quadruplet Alphas

Chapter 5

Elena

I’m strolling towards the entrance away from the class. I’m not scared of being alone, but what does he want to do with Ava?

I’m getting scared that I’m letting her get dragged into my mess. I can’t let that happen, I can’t let them touch Ava.

I’m not walking too far away from the classroom, I can’t go too far and leave Ava alone.

I’m walking slowly and I can hear every gossip about me. They are laughing and cursing at me, but they don’t touch me. I’m sure it’s one of the Quad's doings, they ain’t letting the student react because they want to punish me by themselves.

I should know better now.

I walk into the female bathroom to wash up my face. I’ve been sweating a lot for no reason, and my hands are quivering in front of me.

I’m slapping it to stop but it’s still shaking, I decided to wash them in the water from the female bathroom.

Thank God, it’s quiet.

No student is around and I don’t get to hear any gossip about me. I don’t get to feel that ugly tightness in my chest.

I let out a long sigh, and it echoed since I’m the only living thing here. The classroom is not far from the bathroom, so Ava can easily find me.

Daniel might not touch her, even though they own the city. Ava is from a rich home as well. Maybe I should use this to calm down a bit don’t you think?

I adjust my clothes to let the water pour into my hands.

As I was wetting my hands, the door flew open and my number one enemy entered, throwing the door open to the interior wall.

It’s the f*****g bastard. I don’t scream insults to his face because I value my life too. You don’t play with fire when you know it’s hot.

I swiftly turn around to look him in the eye. His eyes are dead.

God, I’m alone with him. Fear is gripping my body like wet clothes.

“ Elena?” he calls my name. I know that tone, it’s full of anger. It’s dangerous. It’s deadly.

“W-what? What are you doing here?” I stutter, as much as I hate to be in front of him, I can’t fight it not to.

I know what I did is right, it was my revenge. He’s been making my life hell, and I only paid back once and they are all after my life? s**t! f**k that s**t, it’s not f*****g fair.

“ Elena Deloris?” it’s louder. I’m shivering, holding the sink tightly to stable myself.

I make my body stable.

My legs ain’t shaking as I prepare myself to run for the door. I can’t be caged here by him. No. I can’t.

I run to the door, swinging it open when he grabs my hands. His hands are so strong, I look into his eyes again he is f*****g furious.

I’ve never seen him this furious at me. It’s deadly. His clothes are wet from sweat, I guess he has been playing football back to back and he begins to sweat a lot.

He’s wet, his clothes clung to his body. Showing me every curve of his muscular body. He’s still gripping my arm tightly with one hand and he just stares deadly at me.

His wet brows pull together, and his lips part opening them to speak but he’s speechless because it closes again.

My breathing picks up, he knows I did that to him. “Ry-”

“ Why?” his growls interrupt me. My teeth shake as my brows furrow. His question confuses me.

“ Why the f**k did you do that, Elena?” he growls louder. I’m shaking, drawing a shaky breath into my lungs.

This time the fear is washing away from me, and now I’m getting furious. I deserve to be furious, not scared! What does he mean by ‘why’? He f*****g harmed and torture me and he’s here asking ‘why’ for a petty thing I did?

“ Because that is what a monster like you deserves!” I shout to his face, getting irritated.

“ Is that why you f*****g put out a video of me raping someone?” he’s angry.

Jesus Christ, I scream.

“What?” I’m confused. No, I didn’t do that. That’s not what I did to pay back Ryan. No.

He steps into me, grabbing my chin tightly “ When did you see me doing that Elena?” he growls. His blue eyes are bloodshot and I’m confused like a dump doll.

“ W-What are you saying? I never did that, Ryan!” my eyes are burning with tears. My head is spinning. I know what I did, I never put out a video of him raping someone.

No, I didn’t do that, my throat is going sore from the burns. My chest burns too, I don’t understand, confusion is swimming in my head.

He’s laughing devilishly, it comes to a stop when his shoulders refuse to straighten. “ Elena, you just made the worst mistake of your life. You will regret it!” he growls.

“ No Ryan! I didn’t do that. All I did was put the exam answer sheet in your bag! I f*****g didn’t do anything relating to video!” I’m screaming out my lungs. I didn’t do that.

“ Then who did that? Who f*****g did that? Everything points to you Elena.” he tightens his hands around my jaw.

“ Ryan, I didn’t.” Jesus Christ, what’s this? He wouldn’t believe me. I f*****g didn’t do that, someone is trying to frame me.

“ Elena, there would be consequences for trying to ruin me, I don’t care if you are my f*****g mate, I will serve you what you deserve.” he spins me around, slamming my back on the hard wall. And I let out a loud cry.

He presses me harder to the wall, I see all the pain and anger in his eyes as I cry.

He drops me roughly to the ground as he storms out of the bathroom.

Pains sets in my bones, confusion swimming in my head. My eyes are being pricked by tears, they are burning.

That’s not what I did to Ryan.

I hear footsteps running towards the bathroom, then female screams. It’s Ava, she’s running towards the bathroom to meet me.

I can’t stand, I can’t move I’m numb. I didn’t do that to Ryan, that’s all that is screaming in my head right now.

“Elena! Are you okay?” she screams. No, I should ask if she is okay, instead. Now I know why they are so determined to ruin me and I’m getting scared for Ava, they might get her involved in this. This is what I didn’t even do.

“ Ava, he didn’t touch you right?” I’m wiping my tears as I get on my feet

“ No, he didn’t. Are you okay? What did Ryan do to you?” she ask, holding me to her chest tightly not letting me up on my feet.

“ Nothing yet. All I know for sure, he’s going to ruin me. THEM. THEY’RE.” I say lowly, tears running down from the edges of my eyes.

“ Ava, someone is framing me. I didn’t do that to Ryan.” I say as though I’m breaking down completely, which I am. I’m so pissed off now that I think of it, I was running away when I didn’t even do that?

They will never believe me now. I didn’t.

“ Do what Elena?” she frowns and says reluctantly.

“ Ava, it’s a video of Ryan raping someone. I didn’t put that video out, Ava.” I grip her hands tightly to make her believe me. She has to, there’s no one else she would believe apart from me.

“ I know Elena. I know you didn’t.” she tries to pull me up. She’s rubbing my back to make me relax.

“ Let’s get going, Elena. Ella is waiting for you outside your car. She couldn’t get a cab back home, she wants to ride with you.” Ava is trying to switch the topic and I get it.

She doesn’t want me more frightened. But she doesn’t know that, I didn’t just get more frightened I also just got aware that someone is after me. Someone wants me killed because the Quads are going to kill me.

“ Thanks, Ava. I would see you tomorrow.” I sigh, hanging my backpack on my shoulder, while I hold out my car keys in my middle finger. Ava walks back to her car, and I walk towards the parking lot where I packed.

I see Ella standing in front of it. She doesn’t notice me yet, she’s smiling and typing away on her phone.

“ Hey,” I say, getting her attention.

“ Hey, Elena. Where have you been? For ages, I’ve been waiting for you!” she grumbles like always and I let out a small smile.

I press the keypads to unlock both sides of the door while she jumps into the passenger seat with me.
