Brenna
“Stay.” Maddox ordered and then turned around, almost hiding me with his body in the process but it was no use because I caught the tight look Ray sent me.
“Oh, back from the jail, Maddox, so soon.” Ray said, taking a step inside the classroom.
“Why, did you miss me f*****g you up the ass or beating the s**t out of you.” Maddox answered, mockingly.
I almost laughed out loud and definitely internally clapped and cheered for the insult delivered to Ray.
When I peeked over Maddox's shoulder, I looked at Ray's face which was almost purple with anger as he said, “Next time, I’ll make sure that your visit to a darkened cell wouldn’t cut short.”
Maddox stepped away from me and I immensely felt the loss of safety he provided. “Listen, and listen well. If I once again find you around her or around any other girl for that matter, I. Will. End. You.”
Ray shot me a murderous look full of loathing as he said, “Fine.” He laughed as he added further, “I had already f****d her too many times. She’s all yours if you like sloppy seconds so much.”
I gasped at his blatant lie, drawing both of their gazes to mine. Ray’s evil eyes promised retribution whereas Maddox shot me a disgusted look. I so wanted to deny the implication of Ray’s words but words escaped me as I saw Maddox’s fists clenching and unclenching by his side.
Few moments later the door slammed shut as Ray left the classroom, leaving furious Maddox alone with me.
“You,” Maddox pointed his accusing finger at me as he took a step toward me. “How f*****g stupid do you think I am?” He came closer still, saying, “You told me that you were a virgin. Another. f*****g. Lie.”
“Mad—” His hand shot out, effectively stopping me as he tightened his hold around my throat. “I- I..”
“Stop. Talking.” I clamped my lips shut not wanting to make him anymore angrier. But, I didn’t think I could make him any more furious as the very next second he slammed his fist beside my head into the wall. The old plaster tattered around me from the force.
“Get out.” He seethed, almost like he was going to breathe fire. “Get the hell out of my sight or god help me, what I’d do next!”
What did I do you ask?
I ran.
Maddox
It’s been two f*****g days. Two days, and I was tired of waiting. I wanted to meet her. I wanted to know her. I wanted to hold her and promise her that no one would ever hurt her as long as I am alive, but for that I had to know where in the hell she lives and what her real name was. Because, for me, she was my Ariadne.
I know, you must be wondering, why I didn’t know all this already. Because I was behind f*****g bars since last eight months, since I had started to save her. Technically, it was because of her I went to jail and still I didn’t held her responsible for it.
Coming to your second question, “How did I save her?”
Well…. You have to wait a little longer to know that, because right now, I was getting out of my f*****g mind as the person I had given the responsibility to save her was MIA. f*****g Alex, the third of us brothers, younger than Brandon and a ghost for everyone else, except our family and who he deemed worthy of knowing him at personal level.
The day I was being dragged from the court I had demanded of my brother to save her and to keep a guard on her whenever my Ariadne needed someone to save her. And, I was grateful that I had thought about it as in the last eight months Alex had told me about the number of attacks that had taken place on her.
I could just imagine how she looked and how the hell she kept on going with her life if something like this was happening to her on daily basis. She was f*****g strong and courageous, if she could make herself face the next day. And, all I wanted to do was meet this girl and get to know her.
Because, she reminded me a lot of my own mother.
“Baby?”
I turned from my bedroom window as I heard the sweet melodious voice of my mother and turned in time to see her beautiful smile as she spotted me. Whoever will see her smiling like this would never know what she had gone through.
And still after all that she had managed to be the most amazing woman on this earth and we all loved her unconditionally.
With her hands outstretched, she came forward. “My sweet little boy.” She still called me her little boy even when now I was almost nineteen years old. I wonder what would she call me if she knew what I had done to Brenna yesterday.
I dipped my head down to get a customary forehead kiss from her. She always behaved like that. She would kiss us good morning even though we would meet at the school. She loved all of her four sons more than life itself and we always try to not to begrudge the small comfort she took from showing her love like this.
“When did you come home? You didn’t come to see me.” Another thing our mother had deemed compulsory that we should always show her our faces when we come home. It sure had to do something with our third brother Alex. That fûcking bastard makes her worry.
“I was in a hurry.”
“To?” She asked, her blue eyes as same as mine said that she wasn't going to take any excuses.
“Well,” Looking for a good excuse I quickly grabbed the question that I wanted the answer to. “Did you talk to Alex?”
My mother’s beautiful face saddened and I could’ve kicked myself for it. “No. I hadn’t talked to him since last Thursday.”
That was five days ago. Damn it, Alex! I was dying for an update on my Ariadne. What if she was in trouble? And, this time no one would be there to save her.
“He is probably busy with his new assignment, don’t worry.” I said to my mother trying to lessen her worry.
“Yes, probably.” She patted my cheek in affection as she said, “I am so happy that you’re here. I missed you.”
I nodded, and embraced her, giving her the comfort that she did us when we were young. “Now, come downstairs, dinner is almost ready.”
Well… meanwhile, I could just go and play with my new captive.
