Chapter 218
Cassie
Damian was so excited to see me, however, I couldn’t say the same. I just needed someone to hang out with and he was the most available.
Knight’s threat kept echoing in my head and I’d glance back from time to time to know if he had come after me but when it was clear that he didn’t I felt both relieved and disappointed. So what was all that act for? I felt stupid for even thinking he’d come. They had a lot of things to handle and pursuing a girl should be at the bottom of his priority.
Except I wasn’t just any girl. I was the same girl he kissed, the same girl he made feel important now after rejecting me a year ago. Finally, he was showing some serious interest in me and I was living for every moment.
“Is it just me or has that car been following us for a while now?” Damian said and my eyes widened in shock. I snapped my head back and my lips spread apart seeing Knight’s car trailing just right behind us.
My heart made several leapes, so he wasn’t just bluffing, he meant it.
“Is he really coming after us? His not one of your brother’s creepy looking men like the one that dropped you off right?” Damian said sounding scared.
I sat back on my seat and looked back at him with a worried gaze.
“What if I told you that you’re right with your suspicions?”
“What? No! No fucking way! Don’t tell me you have guards too who’d tag along with us wherever we go.” He said widening his eyes as he spoke. I sucked my lip in regrettably and he cursed feeling frustrated.
“What kind of a person is your brother anyway? Are you some member of the royal family that they can’t let you hang out without monitoring you?” Damian kept asking giving me a headache.
“Just keep driving.”
I said and he looked at me confused but went ahead to increase his pace. Knight also did the same.
“The motherfucker just increased his speed. Tell me what the heck is going on Cassandra!”
Damian yelled and I could tell he was getting really anxious. That wasn’t good for driving.
I sighed not knowing exactly how to handle the situation.
“He’s not exactly a guard but my brothers bestfriend.” I said but it didn’t sound as right as I wanted it to. Damian only looked at me with more confusion.
“Then why is he after us if he’s your brother’s….” Damian couldn’t complete his sentence when Knight suddenly overtook us, stopping his car right in front of us.
Damian’s car made a screeching sound as it came to a sudden stop and we both fell forward but were held in place by our seat belt.
“What the actual fuck!” Damian yelled angrily and I raised my head slowly. “What kind of crazy clown is your brother’s bestfriend?” Damian kept spewing and I rolled my eyes at him.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
His face had been on the road so he didn’t see me roll my eyes at him. I watched him as his he began blinking with wide eyes as if he had seen something that shocked him. I followed his gaze to see Knight who had just stepped out of his car, walking towards us in all his perfection.
His curly hair was fallen behind his shoulder, his arm tattoos adding to the dangerous aura emitting from him now. He also had a black pants and black boots.
He looked like the mafia man he was
“W-who did you say he was again?” Damian muttered laying back on his seat. What a coward? Damian was a gym freak and had the perfect body with muscles at the right places. He was the catch of many girls at campus but he had eyes for only me, unfortunately for him.
I know this was Knight but couldn’t he even just man up? Knight couldn’t be that scary.
‘Of course he can girl, just look at him.’ my inner voice whispered and I looked at Knight again. With darkened, narrowed eyes and a countenance exuding superiority he approached our vehicle. I could tell he was clearly pissed.
“Just keep calm Damian, don’t do anything stupid. I’ll talk to him.”
“Okay….” He said nodding at the same time. I swallowed a mould of fluid as I looked at him through the car glass, his eyes were all the time focused on Damian who froze out of fear.
I opened my side of the door and stepped out of the car but Knight didn’t bat an eye to my direction instead I saw him moving towards the car and soon he was dragging Damian out of it.
“Who the fuck are you, how dare you lay your hands on me?” He yelled and I was about to intervene when Knight suddenly slammed him against the car.
I shivered from fear and brought my palm to my lips briefly.
“Knight what are you doing?” I said anxiously walking to where he held Damian.
“Knight stop it! What is wrong with you?” I startled and screamed as he choked Damian by the collar and then slammed him to the door.
“Fuck! Tell this asshole to let go of me.” Damian yelled but I didn’t even know what to do.
“You’re hurting him!” I yelled but he didn’t even flick.
“Who are you to Cassie?” Knight asked in a hoarse voice as he grabbed Damian tighter.
“Why the fuck do you care?” Damian said and Knight hummed deeply showing off his annoyance at Damian’s reply.
“Where the fuck are you taking her to?” Knight yelled and slammed Damian again to the door, this time Damian’s head hit against the door and he groaned in pain.”
“What the f….” A slap resounded, falling on Damian’s cheek but it wasn’t Knight’s hand on him but rather he had used Damian’s hand as the instrument for the slap. That must have hurt because it sounded quite loud and I was right.
My eyes narrowed in shock as Damian spat out blood mixed with saliva from the slap.
“Better start talking or you’d be throwing out your teeth next.
“Knight! Let him go!” I yelled but Knight acted like I wasn’t there.
“I’m just her friend, nothing more.”
“Where were you two going?” He continued to ask.
“Can you stop this now? You have no right to hurt him like that.”
“I don’t? I fucking warned you Cassie. You knew I’d do this yet you wanted to see it happen.” He accused and I kept shut. He wasn’t entirely wrong.
Knight turned his head again to face Damian. He gave him a look asking him to go ahead.
“She just wanted to be driven to the hospital to see her mum and I was just going to be there for the rest of the day if she needed me.” Knight tilted his head in my direction as if asking for confirmation.
He understood from my look and released Damian afterwards still towering above him.
“What’s you name?”
“Damian….”
“Now listen Damian… You see that lady right there?” He said and he nodded. ” I want you to stay the fuck away from her. Don’t ever come around to pick her up because I’ll have eyes watching you and if I see your feet anywhere close to our land you won’t be going back with them.” He threatened and Damian nodded.
I sighed feeling pissed at Knight for what he just did. Scaring my friend like that.
“Now, hurry, run along.” Knight said and Damian was hesitant at first but then he looked at me and I gave him a nod to do as Knight said.
“Be safe Cassie….” He said.
“I’ll call you.” I yelled to his hearing hoping he’d be fine while driving after what happened. Knight directed an angry gaze at me but I looked away instantly and watched Damian reverse his car.
My eyes then fell on Knight’s broad back, I swallowed a mould of fluid on my throat feeling nervous as he began to turn towards me. His eyes caught mine and he walked towards me with an unwavering gaze.
I felt like running with the way he was approaching but I managed to keep myself calm to some extent. .
“Now why would you do that to him?” My words got swallowed up as Knight’s fingers found strands of my hair, pulling them to the back. He combed his fingers over my hair and pulled my face closer to his then grabbed my button lip and sucked it.
“Mmmhmm….” An unexpected moan rippled through my throat at that sensous contact and my body was ignited with spark of sensations.
He pulled away and rubbed my cheek with his thumb.
“That’s what you get for not listening. Your little friend had to get the heat of it.” He whispered gently yet his voice kept sparking sensations which flow through my body.
I sighed softly and sucked my lips briefly.
“Why are you here? What do you want?” I moaned as he dragged my lower lip again then entangled the full length with mine.
“To do what you couldn’t ask me to do.”
“I just wanted to visit my mum Knight. I wasn’t going to have some sort of fun with Damian.”
“Then you should have said so Cassie… And not walk out on me like that.”
“Still what you did wasn’t ri….”
“Shhh….” He hushed me rubbing his thumbs over my cheeks. “Enough of what I did. Go into the car I’ll be doing the driving.” I wanted to hesitate but he looked at me deeply and his aura compelled me to obey. “Now cassie.” He demanded and I sighed in defeat and went to seat at the passengers side. Then he got in shortly and drove us down to the hospital to meet my mum.
