EPISODE 12_ UNDRESS

Ace Hampton stared at the direction of the kitchen.

He wanted to go in there and drag her out. He needed answers as to why she would be friends with Anitra Steel.

He own her and is the only one to approve who to be friends with and who not to be friends with.

Anitra Steel is one of those people she shouldn't be friends with.

"I can't believe she is working here, uncle David sure have a great taste, she is beautiful, and intelligent. The only girl that is competing with you intelligent wise in class."Liam said and smirked. "You're too invested in bullying her, Steele is getting more closer to her than ever before, I hope you know this."

Ace's jaw clenched at the mention of Anitra, his hand balled into a fist and he glared at Liam.

"Are you done making fun of me, Wesley?" Ace questioned, a hard glare on his face.

Liam shrugged casually and glanced to the direction of Catherine's exit.

"What are your plans for her?" Liam asked after a while.

Ace cocked his head to the side and smirked.

He hasn't thought of what to do with her just yet or how to go about it, but he sure knew one thing, he will break her.

Catherine carried the food to Ace's table and took a step back.

"If you need anything, please don't hesitate to call for me, enjoy your meal." She said with a smile and turned to leave but was stopped by Ace's voice.

Her heart skipped and she came to an halt immediately.

"I want you to stay while I eat," he said and Catherine turned around to face him, her facial expression gave her thoughts away.

She was scared of whatever Ace have planned for her.

She didn't want to lose the only job that she have.

"Ace please, not here." She whispered, Ace raised his eyebrow and picked his fork. He digged into his food and took a bite then closed his eyes savoring the taste of the food.

She glanced around the restaurant, silently praying that Hailey finish up fast and take over.

She glanced back at Ace, watching as his mouth moves, her heart started beating erratically. How crazy she is to fall in love with the boy that get off by tormenting her life.

How could she?

She felt like she was betraying herself, feeling what she shouldn't feel, especially for someone like Ace.

When she first saw him she thought he was handsome, a white face Adonis, it was literally a love at first sight.

How can the only boy she ever fall in love with be the same boy that enjoys seeing her in fear?

Why couldn't she fall in love with any other boy in school?

Just why!

"You have been moving around Steele for sometime now, I don't want to see nor hear that you two are together again." Ace said silently. Catherine took a quick peek at Liam and turned to face Ace.

"No, Ace. You won't dictate my life for me, I won't let you. I will make friends with whoever I want as long as they want my friendship, I don't owe you loyalty, Ace Hampton." She said and walked away from the table.

When she got to her section of the restaurant, she release a breath that she didn't know she was holding.

She did it.

She did it!

She challenged Ace, she refused to do as he said and oh my goodness, it felt so good. So good to see his face when she rejected what he said.

"Thank you, Catherine. You're a life saver." Hailey said from behind Catherine and tapped her back lightly before rushing off too.

Catherine checked her wristwatch and it was 10:00 PM, she have to be at home studying for her test.

She quickly changed into her clothes and walked towards Mr Malcolm's office.

"Catherine," A voice called behind her, she turned around and saw Karla standing there all alone.

She smiled shyly and walked towards Karla.

"David...I mean, Mr Malcom left early today and he gave me the money to give you." Karla said and handed over the money to Catherine.

Catherine smiled innocently and went to hug Karla.

"Thank you, Karla. Thank you so much! I'll see you tomorrow, goodnight." She said and waved at Karla who simply wa Ed back.

Catherine walked out of the restaurant, when she got outside, she took a deep breath, it was late, not much people walking along the road. She unzipped her backpack and brought out her phone. Talia had called her several times while she was working, with the mental note to call her back later, Catherine started walking home.

She felt uneasy.

Ever since she started taking that route home, she never felt as if someone was following her, but this particular night she have the feeling that she's being followed.

She closed her eyes briefly and took a deep breath.

She could feel the person close to her, she could smell the person's scent. Sandalwood and peppermint scent. Only one person had that scent.

Ace.

"You are not scared to walk along this way alone this late at night, kitten?" Ace whispered against her ear. Catherine closed her eyes, trying not to get lost in his warmth that was against her back.

"There is nothing to be scared of, I walk around here everyday." She responded. Ace pushed her towards a wall and her back slammed on the cold wall violently, she gasped and her eyes flew towards Ace's.

"You will come with me," he said and she shook her head.

No, she have to go and learn. She doesn't have time for his bullying.

He suddenly wrapped his hand around her neck, tightly enough for her to start gasping for breath and fighting for her life.

"You are for me, Catherine. I will do to you whatever I want, I'll break you, I will make you bow. You are mine." He whispered dangerously.

Catherine shook her head and looked him in the eyes and said the first thing that came into her mind.

"I am nobody's." She firmly said, she release her hands on her sides and sighed, refusing to fight him.

Ace turned her around violently and slammed one hand on the wall, beside her head.

"I will show you just how mine you are, kitten. All mine." He whispered and started trailing his hand from her neck down to her collarbone.

Her heart skipped. He was touching her.

Why was he touching her?

What is his plans?

Just why on earth?

"Ac…...Ace?"

"I told you that you're mine, kitten. Mine to do how I please with, mine to fuck if I want to and now I want to fuck you against this wall." He said and bit on the shell of her ear.

Her heart skipped.

He…..he wants to rape her?.....ra…...rape her!

She started trashing him, trying to fight him off her.

"Get away from me, get away from me or I swear." She threatened.

Ace pinned himself to her back and whispering into her ear.

"Follow me,"

****

Ace pulled her to her house and Catherine was left wondering how on earth he got to know where she lives.

Has he been stalking her without her notice?

"Unlock the door," Ace whispered, he hasn't left her side since he saw her.

She opened the door, her hand was trembling as she does so.

She was scared. No shit Sherlock, she was terrified of what he'd do to her when they walk inside the house.

"Start walking."

She found herself obeying his command and started walking inside the house, Ace walked in too and locked the door behind him.

"Let's go to your room."

She started dreading what next will happen.

What is his plans for her? Is he planning to kill her and dumb her body inside her room? Is that his plans?

When they got to her room, Ace sat down on the bed and flicked on the lights. She closed her eyes and slowly started opening it. Her eyes found Ace, he was wearing a leather jacket and a jeans trouser, his hair was tousled as usual, his amber orbs zeroing at her.

He was watching her like a predator watching his prey.

He was watching her intently and she felt uncomfortable under his scrunity.

Catherine bit on her lower lip and closed her eyes.

"What do you want, Ace? Haven't you destroyed my life in school? Do you want to do it at home too? What do you want from me! What have I ever done to you that you hate me this much!" Catherine yelled at him, Ace cocked his head to the side watching her.

His jaw clenched and his eyes flared in anger but he was quick to mask his anger.

She wondered what happened to him that made him that cruel.

If he let her, she was ready to help him. To help him forget whatever it is that happened to him.

"Are you done pretending?" He asked, Catherine furrowed her eyebrows and it was her turn to cocked her head to the side.

"Huh?"

"Undress."

Catherine eyes widened and she took a step back from him.

He wanted her naked.

Naked.

Why will a boy want a girl naked?

To have sex with her!

She can't….she won't…..

No…..no….

"Are you ears hurting? I hate repeating myself, Cath. Undress"

Catherine whimpered and closed her eyes.

How is she going to get out of this unscratched? What is she going to do?
