CAN’T RUN FROM YOUR SHADOW : CHAPTERS 21 – 30

______________________________

Moans, so many fùcking moans filled the entire room as Amelia arched her back, almost falling off the stool as Byron held her in place, grabbing her chin and making sure her eyes are on him

She tried wriggling her face from his grip but he tightened it, her eyes boring with so much sînful pleasure, something she has never felt before, not even when she touched herself

“How much can you take?” The question comes out of nowhere as she managed to breathe properly, her legs shaking in her heels

“W-what?” She stuttered, her head spinning around but Byron’s hand steadied it, meeting his unreadable expression

“How. Much. Can. You. Take?” He asked more specifically as his fingers moved expertly, making her buck forward

“I…I don’t know” it came out as a moan rather than a mere word

“Let’s find out…. shall we?” He pulled out his hand and her face scrunched up in a frown but it soon morphed into a tearly gasp as his hand comes hard on her bare pu$$y, her whole body jerked from the hit, it’s so damn painful but at the same time…..it feels so good?

Pleasure and pain, fùcking perfect combo

Wait what?

He lets go of her chin and kneel in-between her legs, his strong arms still holding her thighs as she looks at him with confusion, her legs throbbing

“You are so innocent aren’t you?, Daddy and Aunty’s good girl, right?” He asked and she didn’t say a word, he looks at her with a frown and pinched her thigh

Ouch!

“I’m not so innocent, jerk!” She half yelled and he chuckled

“Yeah right,” his said, his voice dropping with a sadistic smrik as he stared at her, she contemplated closing her legs and trapping him in there, suffocating him to dèath but she knows Byron would only use it to his advantage

As if reading her thoughts, he looks at her again “Stop putting ideas in my head, Wild one” he said and she rolled her eyes, why does he seem to read her do well

“Hands on the stool, don’t touch me” he ordered and before she could process the words, he’s on her, his hands still wrapped around her thighs, making it look even smaller than it already is as he dived his face in-between her legs

Hell to the fucking no!

Keep it together Amelia

Don’t lose it!

His teeth and tongue work hand in hand as he nibbled on her pu$$y, coiling his tongue as she fought tooth and nail to keep her hands on the stool

This is pure torture, he knows what he’s doing!

Her legs and body trembled as her body went into full spasms when he thrust his sharp tongue into her entrance

“Byron!….ohh, fucking no!” She arched off the table, almost tumbling backwards but his hold kept her still

It’s too much, she tried clenching her legs for some friction, her hands trembling as she held the stool on both sides but he’s not giving her any chance

Fùcking idiot!

Her head fall backwards in pleasure riding it’s way from the tip of her toes to her entire body, his head not leaving her

He expertly rolled his tongue on her clit, biting, his forefinger adding to the pace with his tongue, it’s fast and steadied

Her hips jerked at the frantic pace of his hand and tongue making stars formed at the bridge of her eyelids, she’s definitely going to pass out

She’s seeing stars dancing in front of her eyes

Her hands grabbed his hair, pulling on it with force as she basically ride his face, her version becoming blurry with that same fùcking sensation building at the pit of her stomach, her mouth falls open and her grip on his hair tightened, almost yanking it off it’s scalp

Cloud 9….or probably 10

A mad órgasm washed through her, it’s strong, it’s powerful, it’s making her want to faint, or maybe she did for just a second, Byron slowly peaked his head and their eyes met

“I said no touching” he pointed out and she gulped down, removing her hands as he slowly stood up, her legs clenching from the spasm, she definitely needs a bath

“I’m….I didn’t mean to, you pûnk” her voice dropped from pleading to sassiness immediately, he chuckled, shaking his head as he closed her legs and she felt the sticky sensation right there, yep she definitely needs a bath

“You are too wild for your own good, as anyone ever told you that?” He asked and she shakes her head, her mind is still hazy as fúck, looking directly at him right now is….. bringing something back

She went quiet and stooped moving, her eyes looking blank

“Amelia?” Byron suddenly noticed the change in her expression, her hands shaking as she stared at him, she’s not saying anything

His eyes almost popped out, no fùcking no!, He knows he shouldn’t have touched her, more reason why he didn’t let her cûm the first time, it’s not because of any stupid punishment, it’s because of her goddamn episodes!

“Amelia, just calm down and stay with me…… Amelia!” He shakes her but she’s not moving, she kept staring at him, his grey eyes…… it’s too fùcking familiar!

“No….”

MEMORIES FLASHBACK

It’s a very big mansion as a blonde little girl dressed in her pink flowery gown while hugging her teddy bear, her blue eyes liting up the entire building as she jugged downstairs

“Papa, I’m all set to go” she said and her father turned to her sharply, his eyes not looking good as he squat to her level

“Princess, can we do this some other time?, I have a really important meeting and I can’t bail” he said with guilt and her smile vanished, her blue eyes turning lighter with a sad pout

“But Papa, you promised” she whined and he kissed her forehead

“Next time, Princess” he said and she nods, watching him stand in his full height as he walked out of the house, his personal assistant following him behind

The house suddenly becomes quiet, she pursed her lips, going back upstairs as she walked towards her mother’s room, she got to it and knocked but got no response, did her Mother go out?, she furrowed her eyebrows at the thought, her Mother has been acting really weird lately

She hardly talks, she walks mindlessly sometimes and most times she scribbles on walls, laughing and writing gibberish, while most times she usually goes to the basement

She doesn’t know what’s going on in there but something deep down inside of her knows something is wrong with her Mom

“Teddy, let’s go since Mom and Dad aren’t home” she giggles, her fluffy boots matching her pink outfit as she juggle downstairs, peaking to see if anyone is watching as she walked to the back

She got to the metal door at the very back of the house, she paused for a minute, before she slowly pushed it back and walked in, an awful smell hitting her nose, this is the first time she’s coming back here, there’s a small staircase that leads to a door, it’s also metal

“Everything about here is giving me the crepps” she whispered to her teddy, clutching onto it harder as she walked down, her feet touched the last stair and she slowly looks around, it’s almost dark, it’s empty, it’s……. creepy

She gulped down emptiness, slowly walking towards the metal door with a shaky breath, her eyes itching to see what’s going on in there, anticipation wearing off on her as she slowly touched the cold mental door and it sent shivers down her spine

“You!” She flinched, stepping away from the door as her mother approched her, her red dress gluing to her skin, her dark red lipstick adding an edge to her glaring blue eyes as she stared down at her

“Mother….. I’m so sorry” she tried pleading but a smack landed on her cheek hard

“I told you not to come down here!, I’ve warned you severally you little witch!, Stay away from this place!” She yelled as tears rolls down the little girls eyes

“I promise not to come close to this place again” she whimpers

“Good, I still have my whips and I don’t mind using them on you, foolish girl” her mother snarled as she grabbed the little girl’s ear and started pulling her out

“Ouch!!……Mother!….. please!……it hurts!!” She yells as her mother dragged her out, her screams echoing endlessly as she stared back at the mental door

“Mother!!!!”

“Amelia!….” Byron voice jolted her, her hands falling from his neck as blood dripped from it, her whole body shaking virgoursly as he pulled her into his arms, hugging her dearly

Fúck!

“Byron…. I’m…. fúck” she whimpered, unable to form a correct sentence as more tears steamed down her eyes, her episode subsiding as she breaths in his scent, calming down her nerves

“It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have touched you” he whispered, stroking her hair backwards as she sniffed

She didn’t say anything as she continues hugging him, her raging thoughts subsiding

“You want to talk about it?” Byron asked and she shakes her head

“No….” She cooed and he nods, taking her in his arms as he carried her upstairs, she guled her eyes to his chest, not looking up

Silence lingers as he pushed a door open and walked in, she immediately opened her eyes, his pure scent filling her nostrils as he dropped her, her feet touched the ground and she almost fell but he held her still

“The bathroom is that way, if you can’t, I don’t mind running you a bath” he said with a shrug and she bite her lips, shaking her head

“I will do it” she said and he gestured at the bathroom, she walked in and her eyes scanned the entire space, it’s pure body wash, it’s just like him

She stared at her reflection and slowly touched the mirror, the urge to smash it looming over her

“I’m that little girl, right?” She asked no one in particular as she looks away, if she stared any longer then she’s going on act on impluse

CAN’T RUN FROM YOUR SHADOW : CHAPTERS 21 – 30

She stepped out of the bathroom with just a towel and her hair wrapped up in another towel, immediately she saw Byron playing on his phone, just like black magic, he stopped and turned to her

“All done….” She said, looking down at herself and back at him, he’s just staring at her, like he wants to eat her raw and that made her feel funny

“It’s freaking late, you should get some sleep” he said and she opened her mouth to say something but closed it immediately, pinching the bridge of her nose as she watched him open the draw

She stood still, watching his movement as he pulled out a thick sweatshirt and walked up to her

“I don’t have female nighties, you can manage this” he said and she smiles, even though his face is scrunched up in a frown, he still acts nice, that means he hardly does stuff like this and he’s making an exception for her……hell no!, Put yourself together Amelia

She nods, walking back into the bathroom and stepped out with the sweatshirt covering her whole, stopping on her knees, he’s still standing there not moving an inch

“It swallowed me whole” she giggled and he moved backwards a little, staring at her from head to toe, he noticed her hair is still tied up and he reached out, yanking the pin off

Not again!, First Elzra and now Byron?, Fúck it!

“Byron!” She protested, her hair falling all the way down to her waist, it’s straight and very alluring

“Why do you always tie up your hair?” He asked and she narrows her gaze at him, tucking her hands into the sweatshirt pocket, it’s scent, it’s just like him, so fucking much

“I just like it that way, I prefer my hair like that” she answered simply….. but it’s a complete lie!

“You have a beautiful hair and it’s a shame tucking it away” he said and she furrowed her eyebrows, he pulled her and she layed on the bed, she just watched every single movement he made, tucking her in

“Why are you being so nice to me?” She finally asked the question that’s being troubling her mind, he squinted a little bit making sure she’s all good

“I’ve always been nice” he muttered

“No, you were a total maniac who wanted to kill me” she chuckles and he pinched the bridge of his nose, taking in her smile

“Maybe that’s because the first time I saw you, I thought I saw a….. ghost” he muttered the last part silently, his eyes weavering into a lighter shade of grey

“A ghost?” She asked with concern

“Get some sleep” he said, spinning around and her eyes bulged, he didn’t turn off the lights but for some reason, sleeping alone sounds scary, he’s a few meters away from the door when she called out and he paused, looking back at her sleeping form

“Don’t leave, I know this isn’t your kind of thing but…. can you please just stay, please” she pleaded, after her episode it’s really a bad idea to sleep alone, it’s been months since she had them not until today

He didn’t say a single word as he moved towards her, grabbing a small chair and sat down close to her

Her surprise knew no bounds as she watched him, stroking her hair, the silence making everywhere seems peaceful……hell no

Peaceful?

Her eyes trails to his neck filled with her scratches and the red spot made her feel somehow

“Your neck is still red, it must hurt a lot, I’m so sorry” she said and he looks at her

“It’s okay, just shut up and sleep” he ordered and she nods lightly, closing her eyes, she doesn’t know if she will be able to sleep but for some reason, Byron’s hand on her hair made her drift into darkness, but not the type of darkness filled with demons and blood

THE NEXT DAY

“I’m going to report to the school!” Roxy’s voice made Maya looked up at her, they’re coming out of the dorm and heading for class

“Is that necessary?” Maya asked, it’s kinda weird that Byron took Amelia but he’s never going to hurt her, right?

“I think it is” Kimberly mutters, checking her phone but got nothing from Amelia

“Maybe she’s still alive or dead or…… kidnapped” Mia said from behind, her eyes guled to her phone

“Stop being creppy you numb, she’ll be fine” Maya retorted, many students could be seen walking towards the class

“What are you always looking at on your phone?” Kimberly asked Mia and she raised her eyebrow whilst looking at her

“Pórn” Mia muttered unfazed and Kimberly stared at her with a smug expression

“No, for real, she’s not lying” Maya chimed in, although Roxy is standing at the parking space, looking out for any signs of Amelia or Byron

“You read pórn, is that even possible?” Kimberly asked with genuine confusion and Mia chuckles mockingly

“Well, if you are into dark spicy books then yes, it is” Mia retorted and Kimberly nods

“Prude” Maya poked Kimberly’s side and she laughs before frowning

“I’m not a prude you idiot, stop being corny” Kimberly mutters as Roxy loud scream made all the girls except Mia run towards her

They all stopped as Amelia and Byron approached them

“Oh my goodness!, Are you okay?” Roxy grabbed Amelia’s hand as they surrounded her, hugging and checking if she’s hurt

“I’m fine guys, seriously” Amelia chuckled, almost being suffocated by the hugs

“Are you sure?, Did he hit you?, Starve you?, Bullied you?, Touch you inappropriately?, Tell me what happened!” Roxy asked as she touched Amelia’s head, cheeks and forehead, trying to detect any negativity

Byron stood behind them hands crossing his chest as he watched the girls

Roxy pulled away from Amelia and stormed towards Byron with angry strides, although she’s tall but Byron still towers her

“Hey!” She yelled, poking his chest

“Sup?” He raised an eyebrow, looking down at her with zero expression

“Sup?, What sup is, you almost killed me last night!!” She yelled, glaring at him

He titls his head backwards “but you are still alive and breathing”

“Don’t fúck with me!, who do you think you are to walzt off with Amelia just like that!?” She asked again, poking his chest harder

“You are acting like a stray dog right now” he pointed out and she gasped

“What did you just say?” She asked unbelievably

Amelia shakes her head ” I’m fine Roxy, he didn’t do anything” she said, looking at Byron as they stared at each other for a minute

Maya and Kimberly stood besides Amelia

“What you did wasn’t cool, Byron” Maya chimed in

“We were worried sick about her” Kimberly mutters and Byron stared at Roxy who looks like she’s ready to bite him

“From now on, you girls should get used to not always seeing Amelia” Byron pointed out and Roxy interfered immediately

“What do you mean?” Roxy asked with slight irritation

“I meant that, more of what happened yesterday would be happening, so yeah, you girls shouldn’t be surprised next time” Byron said and the girls shared a look amongst themselves

“Yo!, Captain!” Xander’s voice called from afar and Byron breaks the eye contact with Roxy and looks ahead

Ronna, Kayden and Xander where standing upfront, waving at him

Mia looks away and concentrated on her phone, while Kimberly stared at Xander who doesn’t seem to notice her

“Later” Byron mutters, sparing Amelia one last look before walking away

“Hey!, Get your àrse back here!!!!” Roxy yells but a hand on her head made her stop

“Easy there, easy….” Byron cooed, patting her head five times as her mouth hangs open before walking away

What the fúck!

“The nerves of that guy” Roxy mutters, dusting her hair in disgust

“Tell me about it” Kimberly mutters as well

“You are awfully quiet, you should get ready for class” Maya said and Amelia nods

“See you girls in class” Amelia mutters, walking towards the dorm

“You think she’s okay?” Maya asked as they started heading for class

“She looks fine” Mia muttered, her eyes still on her phone

“I’m sure if there’s anything wrong, she’d tell us, right?” Roxy asked as she looks at the girls

“Right, she would” Kimberly mutters, looking back at Amelia’s retreating figure

CAN’T RUN FROM YOUR SHADOW : CHAPTERS 21 – 30

“Dad!!!” Silver yells immediately she stepped into her mansion, okay, her father’s mansion, Rico, one of the biggest business mugols who’s known for getting anything he wants, his influence running half of the city

“Angel?, why aren’t you in school?, Don’t tell me you drove hours just to get here all by yourself?, What’s the problem?” He asked with concern as she stood in front of him, he’s sitting down majestically, his tab guled to his face

“Everything!, I thought you said you had Byron under your control!?” She yelled, he winced a little due to her loud voice and lowered his tab to look at her

“I do, his father and I have him under complete control” he pointed out and she kicks her feet

“Well, you guys don’t seem to be doing a good job!, He’s out there flunting himself with some pathetic cheap slût right in my face!” She yelled again and he pulled out an ear bud, stuffing it in one of his ears, Silver might end up deafening his ears

“He’s just playing around, forget about it” he motioned for her to sit down but she ignored him

“Playing around?, Father, don’t you get what I mean?, He’s literally obsessed with her!!” She yelled again, this time even louder

“Will you stop yelling and tell me what you mean by obsessed?” He asked rubbing his ears and she exhaled deeply

“He’s stalking her Dad, he’s always around her, always keeping an eye on her, I feel like each time I turn around he’s always with her, if that isn’t obsession then what is?” She yelled and he shoots her a glare

“Fine, I will talk to his Dad, he knows what to do” he mutters and she sighs

“If you guys don’t put him in his place then I will, nobody else can have Byron, I need him for my status and that stupid bîtch wants to ruin things for me!” Silver gritted out

“I will handle it, Angel” he said and she smiles a little

“Where’s Mom!?” She asked

“Upstairs, probably separating her golds from diamons….I don’t know what she’s doing” he replied sarcastically and she stormed upstairs

“Mom!, I think I’m going to commit mûrder!!!!” She yelled out, and her Dad rolled his eyes at her attitude before reflecting on what she just said

“Another girl?….” He hummed, drumming his fingers

CAN’T RUN FROM YOUR SHADOW : CHAPTERS 21 – 30

After the classes, Kimberly and the girls decided to go watch the practice games while Amelia jugged towards her room

Ever since what happened yesterday, she hasn’t been able to stop thinking about it, her episodes are usually blurry and hue filled with horrific scenes but yesterday….. she saw something, she actually saw something that had happened before!

Damn!!!

She remembered something, although she can’t still wrap her head around the whole shît

She jammed her door closed and brought out her phone, calling Aunt Milicent is a terrible idea, she would freak out if she finds out that bits of her memories are coming back, same goes for her Dad, he’s already stressed

She scrolled through her contacts and hit on her last option……. Dr Kiran…… Short form for Dr Kir

Her heart raced as he picked up

Dr Kir: what a wonderful surprise?, You seem to be avoiding me lately

Guilt hits her chest as she sucked in her breath

Amelia: I’m sorry but I need to see you in private

He paused

Dr Kir: Are you okay?

She looks at her hand and it’s shaking

Amelia: bits of my memories are coming back

She drops the bomb shell and he went quite completely, he must also be in shock

Dr Kir: I will text you when we’ll meet, don’t freak out okay?, just stay calm

She nods even though he can’t see her and the call went off, she sits on her bed and covered her face with both hands

Everything about her past is messed up but she can’t wait to know the reason behind what happened and how two people died

One is her Mother…. who’s the other person?

CAN’T RUN FROM YOUR SHADOW : CHAPTERS 21 – 30

If there’s one thing that Byron hates in his life, then it has to be going home

Home?….. The thought made alone made him feel like throwing up

The thought alone makes him want to jump over a cliff and die, not because of anything else but for the fact that he has the most annoying father

Reading the text over and over again from his father made his grip on the phone tightened, he clenched his jaw muscles, tossing the phone to the passenger seat as Amelia’s eyes clouded his memory, her presence suddenly filling him

Is he obsessed or delusional?, Probably mad?……or this is the first time he has ever been interested in someone’s life

He didn’t expect her to have an episode that early, the last time it happened, she was at home and she practically refused to take her drugs which resulted to the commotion but after that time it never happened again

Don’t bother wondering about how he knows, it’s his little secret

“Poor little Wild one, she has forgotten completely” he chuckled against his anger, remembering the horrific expression on her face after her episode, he hates seeing her like that and if touching her would result to it then he has to control himself, he just have to, no matter how hard it would be

CAN’T RUN FROM YOUR SHADOW : CHAPTERS 21 – 30

He pulled up and sighed, walking towards the main building, what do you expect?, Securities filling every nook and cranny of the entire place

Steel, the notorious business tycoon who vowed never to use his father’s name, an arrogant bastard and Byron’s most hated person on earth

Immediately Byron stepped in his cold gaze met his eyes

Byron is the complete carbon copy of his father

Sharp grey eyes, chisel aristotic nose, huge intimidating figure, cold demeanor and same fùcking pride

Byron hates the fact that he looks like his father so much

The relationship between both men are complicated

It’s not hate or love….. just pure distain

“You called” Byron mutters as he watched his father lifts his eyes from the chess set, looking at him with a disapproving look

“What is this news that am I hearing?” His father asked and Byron furrows his eyebrows

“I’m pretty sure I’m not into gambling or drugs” Byron rolled his eyes and his father chuckles, it doesn’t reach his eyes

“You had a simple task, and you are letting your emotions cloud your judgments…” His father retorted and Byron pinched the bridge of his nose, he could feel his patience running thinner by each passing second

“She’s not a game father” Byron mutters and his father laughed

“Oh she is, and you know that” his father said and Byron face hardened

“She’s not and nobody has the fùcking right to go close to her, not even you, Steel” Byron challenges as his father eyes flashed with anger

“Lose the bimbo, Byron, or I will do it for you, remember what happened sixteen years ago…… she’s to pay for it” his father said and Byron smriked

“She did nothing, and you should stay the hell away from her” Byron counterd and his father stroked his chin

“Don’t push me Byron, don’t you dare talk back at me” his father snarled

“I knew I wanted her dead before but not anymore, and yes I’m done putting up with your stupid plots, she’s mine, so you and Queens can eat dust, don’t fúck with me” Byron warned with a serious look whilst turning his back and started leaving

“If you don’t end this then I will” his father called after him and Byron didn’t know when he turned sharply, pointing directly at his father

“I dare you Steel, touch her and you will have me to deal with” the words left his mouth and his father clenched his fist as they both stared at each other, the tension in the room rising.
