Liam's POV:

I was still so confused why Carter blew up on me yesterday. Kay said she never responded to her messages, but she was going to talk to her today. I hope she is okay. For some reason, I feel like she draws me in, and I need to protect her. Protect her from what, I have no idea, but I want to make sure she is okay. After hearing that Carter loved motorcycles, I decided to drive mine today. Maybe I can get back on her good side.

I kept my eyes in front of me with my emotionless facade while trying not to make it too obvious I was looking for Carter. I spot her by her locker and see Kay walking up behind her. Carter completely stiffens when Kay swings her arms around her from behind. I don't think Kay noticed but I did. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Ginseng, or whatever the fuck her name was, walking up to me. I think she is trying to be seductive but the spray tan that I'm assuming she got done yesterday, makes her look way older than she is, not in a good way. She kind of looks like an overcooked spicy chicken nugget that no one wants to eat.

"Hey, baby," she attempts to purr in my ear while feeling up my abs and shivers of disgust go down my spine. She lifts herself up on her toes and whispers in my ear, "let's go to the library again during first period?" She bites my earlobe too aggressively and then pulls back to look at me while biting her bottom lip. Her bringing up the library reminds me of how upset Carter was yesterday and I have no idea why I'm letting a girl who I don't really even know cockblock me but something about this girl turns me off now. My body doesn't even respond in the slightest, but it may be fun to play with her a bit.

"Sure," I whisper in her ear while breathing up her neck, "Meet you in the same place in fifteen minutes," I say as I bite her earlobe a little too aggressively which causes a moan of slight pain to leave her mouth which she tries to turn into a moan that might turn most guys on, but I've been there and done that. This girl can't even fake a moan that sounds even remotely appealing.

She looks up through her lashes and tries to look innocent by blushing, but it doesn't work. She agrees to meet me and runs off. When I turn towards where I last seen my sister, I immediately stumble back from two hands pushing in my chest, HARD.

"What the fuck did you do to her?" someone seethes in my face. It takes me a second to realize it's my sister pushing me. It takes me a few more seconds to register her words. What and who is she talking about?

"Who?"

"Don't give me that bullshit. Carter! She has bruises all over her face! So, I will ask again, WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?!" She yells. I grab her arm and push her into an empty classroom so that people can't hear our conversation.

"What do you mean she had bruises all over her face? When she walked away from me yesterday, she was fine. There were no bruises on her face. You also know that I would never harm a woman unless it was justified and that doesn't sound Carter" Who would have put bruises on her?

"She had bruises on her chin that looked like someone grabbed her and on her temple where something hit her. When I asked her what happened, she looked towards you and then quickly walked away. I assumed you would know since she kept staring at you." She was staring at me? It probably looked bad with me whispering in that airhead's ear.

"Where did she go?"

"I'm assuming she went to the restroom since she walked the opposite way of our classroom. I'm going to go look for her now." Kay said as she walked towards the door.
