Rebel's Solitude (Paused)

#15. First beating

Luna was seated on a beach outside the library, her security or bodyguards not far away but close enough to be there for her incase of an incident. In her hand is a book called 'Black Cookie', being the last series and she was deeply reading since the author Rena Virgo is one of her favourites.

Next thing she heard around her was someone closing the back door and she looked up from her thick book to take a glimpse of the person.

The tall, muscular built guy was in a disguise like she was; shades, a hoodie jacket around their waist and a black cap. She has hers on the top of her head but her curiosity was the guy who entered with security himself. She was sure to tell the building security and her own to allow her to be out her without anyone disturbing her. Remember that it was a library and a very secured one at that she was safe, this was her favourite place since she was seven years old when she moved here.

Putting her focus on the page she was reading, a smile came on her lips at a particular paragraph of the couple sharing an intimate moment before biting her lower lip.

"Rena Virgo's books are all romance, and she ends them with a sexual scene. How old are you Luna?"

At this voice before her on the opposite side of the bench, she quickly shuts the book and looks over at the person. Her mouth hung open as the words got stuck in her head and she blinked wondering how this guy knows her name. Before her is thee famous Kymani Stone, one of the biggest celebrities here in California. Her hearts was beating rapidly in her chest as she stares into his sapphire blue eyes and the face that resembles his parents.

She was unable to speak and the only voice in her head was a warning, telling her to leave quickly.

"Almost eighteen. Please excuse me." That was all she could say and she quickly pack her things.

Around her, her security were both shocked and a look of dread was their only expression. They knew something that Luna and her mother didn't but it was for the safety of Luna's future.

"Can I get five minutes of your time, Miss Malinowski?" He asks softly.

Gulping audibly, she looks at her security who were already staring then to his who held smirks on their faces. She was dreading what was next to come before nodding at the guy most people fear.

"How are you today?" He inquires in a calm voice that sounds friendly but she knew better.

"I'm fine sir." Was her answer.

"Let us have a conversation in creole," He offers and she looks at him as if he was seriously asking her that. "It's not everyday I meet a Jamaican like myself."

"You live with few Jamaicans." She points out and he chuckles.

She was even more surprised to hear the sound as the gossip news, magazines or talk shows he's ever seen on was of him sounding like a brick wall. He was a happy child while growing up but he changed a lot when he knew of this Family's business, it was something not many persons know of. He had to be the man of the family outside the house but inside he was a complete kid.

"I do, but I like meeting new people like myself. Now, how is yuh day suh far?"

Luna's eyes widened at his thick creole and he chuckles at her face. "It gud, jus get sum days off before mih big graduation."

"Congrats. Yuh going to college?" He inquires and each words sounds sincere.

"Yeah but mih planning to do some online classes..."

"Mih too. That's wat mih doing for the past two years. Mih still have to play football tu." He nods.

"American football?" Her lips curve to show her dislike and it made him laugh.
