In Ruins: Chapter 28
“It’s been a while,” Ian said, falling in step beside me as I walked across the parking lot later that day at school.
I groaned inwardly as I continued to my car. I hadn’t gotten a chance to speak to Fox. My anxiety was choking me with worry that maybe we weren’t OK due to his scarceness. The guys had football practice, so I was alone with my thoughts, not all of them clean ones.
“Not long enough,” I muttered, reaching for my door handle and turning to glare at him. “Stay away from Jamie. I saw you two in the hallway.”
“Ah, so you know we’re dating.” He gave me a Cheshire smile. “There’s only one way me staying away from her is going to happen. And that all rests on you.”
“Why haven’t you told her yet? Why are you dragging this out? It’s pathetic,” I spat out.
“You know why. I’m really hoping you come around, Rosalie.”
“I’m not going to—”
“If you don’t finish it, it’ll be her virginity I take. We’ve both spent enough time with her to know how important this is to her. I’ll fuck her brains out. I’ll make promises I don’t intend to keep. Then I’ll leave her without an explanation.”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“You’re an asshole.”
“Or maybe I’ll tell her she fucks like a wet paper bag, and I can’t bear to do it with her again.”
“Jamie is your friend, Ian. What the hell is the matter with you? You know what this means to her—”
“I know, and that’s why you need to fall in line, Rosalie. I wanted you first. If those fuck boys hadn’t come in and ruined it, you’d be mine right now, not sucking them off every chance you get.”
“There’s something seriously wrong with you,” I snarled at him, my hands balled into fists.
“No, I just know what I want.” A wide smile spread over his face. Dread filled my belly. “That’s you. I’d hoped you’d want me too. When you didn’t, I decided to settle with easing your resistance with a little chemical help. Now, you know the score. I will have you. I don’t care if you had all their dicks inside you. Mine will be the last.”
“I was drunk, Ian. You put something in my drink. That wasn’t love, lust or anything related. It was criminal! That night shouldn’t have happened. I was upset, and you took advantage.” I shifted to open my car door, but he slammed it closed on me, making me jump.
“It was me you came to.”
“It was an accident,” I answered. “I ran into you. It could’ve been anyone. But the only difference is, they wouldn’t have drugged me and tried to fuck me.”
He let out a bark of laughter and pushed me against my car. “I want what’s mine. Finish what you fucking started, or I really will take it from you.”
“I’m done having this argument with you.” I ground my teeth, trying to compose myself. “You’re mental.”
“I’m taking her v-card. Then I’m going to tell her about us.”
“Go to hell,” I snarled at him. “If you touch her, I will end you.”
I didn’t wait for his rebuttal. I shoved him aside, got into my car, and peeled away, leaving him where he stood.
