chapter warning: sexual harassment
Khyle Zander Hendrix
The skies were tinted of red and orange as the sun sets down, it was turning dark as well already.
I finally entered the room and Jonas was arranging his materials.
"You're here." He smiles.
"Please sit here first." He says and gave me a chair to sit on.
"Let's start after five minutes." He says.
"Do I have to change costumes? I don't know what I should wear." I said, worried.
"Oh, right. Put this on." He says and tossed me a piece of clothing.
The room has its own restroom so I went there and changed.
It was a pastel purple colored silk robe. It was long, covering my body up to my knees.
I kept my shorts on to be comfortable and I finally walked out of the restroom, I think we're going to start.
I sat on a stool and did a pose as I was told.
"Oh, wait."
He said and comes up to me, adjusting the robe exposing my chest.
"Is it okay if we open them like this?" He asked.
"Oh...I didn't know I need to show some skin." I said, worried and kind of anxious.
"It's okay." He says and goes back to his canvas and started sketching and coloring the canvas with paint.
"Hey, uhm...can you..."
He comes to me again, adjusting the robe again, opening them more.
"Keep it like that." He says and came back to his spot to continue his canvas.
I didn't move an inch and kept the pose even when I'm already feeling embarrassed, I just can't say anything.
"Are you tired? Do you want a break?" He asked.
"Can we just finish this quickly?" I asked, already feeling uncomfortable.
He then comes up to me again, setting my hands down and turning my head to face him as he held my chin.
"You know what? I like you." He said.
"What?" I stammered and looked at him confused.
"Do you think you can model for me again? I'll pay you more." He said.
His gaze were sending chills to my spine, it was not a good kind.
His hands traveled down from my chin to my neck, down my shoulders and chest.
I was alarmed.
"What are you doing?" I protested, pushing his hands away from me when he tried to undress the robe and covering myself again.
I can tell he was annoyed.
"You've been modeling for Zero but you're declining my offer?" He asks.
"What does Zero have to do with this?" I literally have no clue what he's talking about.
"Why is it always him and not me?!" He screamed and I flinched.
"I've been inlove with you for a long time, Khyle." He says.
"I've been waiting for this moment to come." He said and grabbed my hands, pinning me to the wall.
He was strong and I couldn't break free.
I felt so scared.
I couldn't think clearly.
Fear surrounded my mind for about what's going to happen.
So I started crying and begging him to stop.
I closed my eyes tightly for I can't even look at him.
I didn't realized, he wasn't holding me anymore.
The strong grips on my hands disappeared.
I opened my eyes.
Zero?
Why is he here?
He was standing in front of me, panting and facing the side of the room.
When I looked at my side, Jonas was sitting on the ground, wincing in pain and holding his jaw.
Did Zero just punched him?
Zero looked at me and worry was all over his face as we shared eye contact.
He comes up to me and cups my cheeks softly.
"Are you alright?" He asked.
He took off his coat and wrapping it around me.
It's warm and smelled like him.
"Let's go." Zero pulls me out of the room.
"You're gonna pay for this, Zero Archer." Jonas screamed before we exit the room.
