Chapter 9 - Lessons
Chester Brace
So, my darling, you pass with flying colours!
After finishing a pop quiz that Chester had given me, he finally marked and gave me a passing grade.
That was a great relief! If I had failed, I would have been unable to attend classes.
Chester Brace
So, it's just a matter of choosing what class you should be in.
I turned around and saw Cal at the door. His arms crossed, he was leaning against the door post with his signature frown pasted across his handsome face.
Chester Brace
Calvin. Shouldn't you be in-
Cal Bentley
Put her in Class A.
Why is he being so insistent? Does he want to punish me or something?
Chester Brace
Are you sure? If she gets revealed, you'll be taking all of the blame.
He then walked towards me and grabbed my slender wrist, pulling me from my seat.
Amy Angel
H-Hey! Wait, Cal! Slow down.
He pulled me towards him as he marched out of the door, still holding onto my wrist tightly.
As we got into the corridor, he kept his grip secured.
He then stopped and turned around, facing me. There was something about his expression that made him so handsome...
Wait, what did he just say?
Amy Angel
I don't get what-
Cal Bentley
You are my responsibility therefore you now belong to me. It makes sense, doesn't it?
Um, not really. I was only slightly confused by his sudden declaration.
My confused look seemed to displease him since he then grabbed my wrist once more and pulled me into his arms.
He smelt so nice... like a warm toasty wood fire.
I felt him pick up a lock of my hair and sniff it, smiling as he brought it to his lips affectionately.
Cal Bentley
You're my property now.
I then huffed and pushed him back a little, looking up at his beautiful blue eyes.
Amy Angel
You're being very weird.
Cal Bentley
Weird? How so? Those other four had a chance to claim you and didn't take the chance. Everything in this world is worth something. And I see worth in you.
He sees... worth in me? I couldn't help but feel flattered as I clenched my fist in his shirt a little.
My cheeks blushed a light shade of red despite my best effort to hide it.
A loud bell proceeded to interrupt our moment and people slowly started to leave their classrooms.
I, of course, started to get nervous. I had never been in such a big crowd of devils before.
What is the charm Chester gave me doesn't work?
What if they see through my act?
Then, as the hall slowly started to fill up, I closed my eyes. I imagined myself with Grandma at our small apartment.
While my eyes were closed, Cal's eyes were right on me. I didn't ask for help. Why was that?
Then, I felt something strong pull me in as I fell onto a familiar muscular chest.
A sweet voice whispered into my ear:
Cal Bentley
It's okay. I'm here.
His warmth made me feel like I was flying on clouds. All of a sudden, I didn't feel so scared anymore.
He did soothe me but I was still trembling a little.
Cal frowned and then pushed me through the crowds, keeping his arms protectively around me.
Reaching the wall, he then took out what looked like a key and swiped it across the wall, revealing what looked like a black hole.
Then, suddenly picking me up into his arms, he carried me through it.
Amy Angel
Cal, what are you-
However, when I opened my eyes, I suddenly understood what it meant.
What the books meant by saying that magic could be beautiful.
I opened my eyes and saw stars.
