It's between me and you

Chapter 38

A freezing chill shrank over the girl's body in a second. Panic fear crawled up her spine. Elena instinctively stepped back, feeling the bad feeling sink into her skin with sharp claws.

Cahlon was definitely here not to ask her for his homework.

"What do you want? "

Matthew grinned and walked straight at her without taking his shoes off.

"Mr Cahlon, I'm not inviting you in".

"And I did not ask for an invitation".

The guy reeked of alcohol, nicotine, and something else. If the rumors were true, he had a pretty well-to-do family, and he looked like he'd just gotten out of the basement. Dirty shoes, and clothes And most importantly, his eyes. His pupils were unhealthily dilated.

"Would you at least offer me a cup of coffee? "

The guy's squeaky voice was pierced with disdain and sarcasm. Elena pulled herself up and stepped back into the kitchen, trying not to shorten the distance between them. She looked around the room, trying to remember where she had left her phone in case she needed to call Andrew quickly.

"You'll be fine. Why are you here? "

The guy a little taller than her leaned his shoulder against the wall and licked the woman's body with a sticky gaze. The girl quickly folded her arms across her chest.

"Nice robe" Cahlon grinned mockingly. "Is that how you greet Ledger? "

Elena gasped in surprise and met with a razor-sharp gaze.

"What are you talking about? What does this have to do with Ledger? "

The student cringed.

"I'm well aware that this jerk is fucking you".

The air had become catastrophically short. The threat like a guillotine hung over the poor girl's head, whose heart was about to burst out of her chest.

"Matthew, I don't know what you mean".

Her voice was traitorously hoarse. The guy knew exactly what he was talking about; it wasn't a guess or anything like that. And that made it worse.

"You understand everything, Elena" Matt pushed himself off the wall and walked a couple of steps toward her. She got a nasty smell of overdrinking. She wanted to move away, but the guy suddenly grabbed the collar of her robe in his fist and drew in the smell of a woman's body with his nose. "You smell awesome. And I can see why Ledger fell for you. I'd fuck you too. And maybe I will, if you don't do what I say!"

Elena became sickened. She put her hands on the guy's chest and pushed away. Everything in her nature resisted being in such close proximity with this psycho.

Cahlon grinned, baring his teeth.

" I'm pretty sure that you would hardly spread your legs in front of Ledger on your own will. He must have something on you. Am I right? " - Elena was silent and Matt thought, that he was right. "And if this asshole is forcing you to sleep with him, than he found something serious on you. Yep? I'm offering you a deal".

Elena swallowed hard.

"What do you want, Matthew?"

A smug smirk stretched his cracked lips.

"You take the statement against me from the police and write a new one, where you say that Ledger set the house on fire, but intimidated you, so under pressure you had to give false testimony".
