Claimed By The Devil

Chapter 5

Padgett Eve:

As I reached the restraunt for my reunion I calmed myself down and put a smile on even if it was fake, I still tried my best. As I entered the restraunt, I walked upstairs where my reunion was being held. As I reached upstairs I was greeted by all of my friends and someone I hoped to meet the least, Scarlett Rose. That girl was someone I never liked, she used to bully me when I was new in the college with her minions, I still shiver thinking how badly she used to bully me, while bullying me, she almost got me raped by one of her friends, thank god the teacher came at the right time and stopped that kid, what was his name, maybe it was Mason Gray, but Scarlett stopped bullying me and tried hard to become friends with me once she got to know that I was the daughter of a wealthy businessman, she was beautiful and was attractive during our college time, but she was also known as the slut of the college, because she would be with anybody who she heard was quit rich, bloody gold digger. Once she saw me, she came running towards me and hugged me tight like we were some kind of best friends. I hugged her back and then released from the hug feeling a bit uncomfortable.

After having a lot of chit-chat reviving those old memories of our college day's and making fun of each other at how silly everybody was back then. After having snacks and dinner some people drank but I didn't because I don't drink and I am just afraid of the consequences. Soon it was the time for everyone to bid each other farewell. Most of the people left it was just me, Scarlett and some other friends. Kate reminded of something very funny that I couldn't help but forget all the pain in my life and laugh whole-heartedly. As I was laughing with others while they suddenly stopped and looked terriefied from someone.I looked up and saw a Greek God in front of me, his icy blue eyes were staring at me he had this gorgeous and dark aura around him which was somehow impossible to ignore. He eyes were piercing through my soul.

Later I got to know that he was Sebestian Knight, Scarlett's fianceé. Sebestian..... This name somewhat sounded familiar to me but I did'nt pay attention to it. After a while Colton came and stood between me and Sebestian like a wall, I could feel he was scared of something but didn't show. Soon we both left in Colton's car.

When we reached home, it was empty, my father was not in the living room, where he usually is whenever I go out, I shrugged it off and went to my room. I did my night routine and was about to sleep when someone knocked on my door. "Come in" I said, soon the door opened and Colton came in. I was a bit flustered because I was in my nightwear which was a tank top and shorts which were I think very short. I hurriedly just took my blanket over me, covering my body till my neck. Colton just smiled, at me and said," Your father went out for an urgent business meeting, are you aware of that?" I was happy as father was away and I could be free for a few days and I replied,"Not really" Colton just hummed in response and said," Listen belle, I don't really trust housemaids with you so, please can you come and stay with me while your father is away?" He asked making me shocked by his words. Seeing my schoked expresion he was fidgeting with his fingers waiting for my reply.

After thinking for a while I decided say yes," Colton?" I said in a timid voice and he looked up at me, "Y-yes I w-will c-come to your house with y-you." I said and he gave me a charming smile and later gave me a light peck on my lips. I couldn't help but be shocked, it's true that I didn't love him completely, yet so I didn't expect things like this."I'll be waiting downstairs" I just nodded in response while he left, I got up changed my clothes, packed some of my clothes and other important stuffs,took my phone and headed downstairs. I saw Colton was waiting there as soon as he saw me, he came towards me and took my bag from me, honestly it was quite heavy so I insisted at first but he said it was fine, who thought clothes could be this heavy. After bidding farewell to eveyone in the house, I sat in the car with Colton.

It was not a long drive to his house. As I entered I saw the house it was beautiful and slightly bigger than mine. Soon Colton asked me," I hope you'll be comfortable in my room with me?" It took me a while to answer but after a bit of thinking I bit my lips while nodding, he simply let out a chuckle. He held my hand and took me towards a room, which was his I pressume, he took my bag to the closet while I was looking at the floor." You can freshen' up if you want and then lay down on the bed." He said and I simply nodded making my way towards the washroom. After I used the restroom I came out of the bathroom only to see Colton laying down on the bed. I quietly went and laid down as far as possible from him, because it was not really comfortable for me to lay down just next to him and give him false hope of me bieng head over heels for him, which will maybe affect him if he come's to know that is not really true.
