The Risen HODWII

Chapter 13 : Kill Me

I gasped. “It was you?” Why did I forget about it of all things!?

“Still stupid.” She turned her back to me, shaking her head. When she started walking away, I held her hand and made her turn to face me.

My hand cradled her head as I slammed my lips into hers. I sensed her freeze; I slung my free hand around her waist, pulling her closer to me while kissing her.

My lips moved against hers, sucking her lips, but she did not respond, so I bit her lower lip. She gasped. My chance as I let my tongue enter her mouth. She’s so sweet...

Just then, I felt her respond to my kisses. I smiled between our lips. She slung her arms around my neck, pulling me to deepen the kiss... I groaned in pleasure. I thought I would lose her... I’m so stupid for not realizing that the man she loves is none other than me...

We tasted each other as my tongue traveled inside her mouth, sucking and nibbling her soft lips. She moaned in pleasure, and I wouldn’t tire of it. I was amused when she tried to do the same to mine. Not quite right, but still... she’s learning. Good girl.

She broke the kiss to catch her breath. I smiled at her, still panting. “You’re learning... Good girl.” I teased, and she glared at me.

“Where did you learn that?” she pouted; my nerdy girl was back.

“Let’s say from someone,” I grinned.

“Who?” Oh no. Her voice was laced with anger. Uno.

“Hey, I was just playing,” I said, laughing nervously, but her face remained cold and serious. I had to remind myself not to joke around her about girls. The truth is, I have none. She’s the only girl I’ve fallen in love with for the first time, and she will be the last.

How could I forget my first love!? Her cuteness from ten years ago made me fall for her.

“I won’t ask again. Who. is. the girl?” I gulped, slowly making distance from her.

“There you are. Breakfast is ready.” I immediately looked at Claire, standing at the door.

“Thank goodness! I’m hungry!” I said, walking faster to get out of there. If I made up a name, she might kill anyone with that name! I had no choice but to get away.

**Venice Claire's POV**

I can see that things are going well with Stella and Lucas. So the result was good. I hope things will also go well between me and Xenon.

“What happened to her?” I asked plainly.

When I entered the living room, Cassy, Drena, and Stella were circling Jenna, who kept hovering on the sofa out of fear. The girls were comforting her, giving soothing words, while Adrian sat on one of the couches, holding his temple.

“She didn’t eat her dinner yesterday. I let it slide, but this time she skipped breakfast and lunch. I thought she ate, but she threw it away. We’ve done everything to soothe her and make her eat, but she keeps resisting out of fear,” Drena said, worry etched on her face.

“I’m not sure if it’s just fear, but I think there’s more... I think she’s committing suicide,” Cassy murmured beside me, ensuring only I could hear. I smirked; she’s smart.

Just then, memories from before flooded back. I remembered wanting to embrace death rather than continue living in hell...

“If this continues, her mind will be affected, and she will completely go crazy from the lack of food. Air will consume her mind, or worst, she will die,” Stella said, looking at Jenna, whose body formed a ball in a sitting position.

“No.” Adrian stood up from his seat and walked toward her. “Please, Jen, I’ve done everything for you. Don’t leave me hanging, please. At least eat something.” He pleaded as he knelt in front of her.

“Just let me die, please... I can’t take it anymore... They’re in my mind. I can still hear them... No!” She pleaded, suddenly flinching for no reason.

She needs consultation from a professional.

“Stella, get me a gun.” All of them looked at me in shock, including Jenna. Stella went somewhere without asking why. I knew she would obey without question.

“You want to die, huh?” I stated coldly toward her as she looked at me with... I smirked; she was still afraid to die.

“What will you do, Claire?” Adrian asked, anger rising in his voice.

“Claire... please. Don’t,” Drena pleaded, but I ignored them.

“See? You don’t even care about how they feel. They love you, but you’re so selfish; you only think of yourself.” I smiled evilly, not breaking eye contact with her.

“That’s not true!” she yelled at me furiously.

“Not? But you want to die?” I sarcastically said, raising my hand as Stella handed me the gun. Jenna’s eyes widened in fear.

“Claire, stop it,” Adrian ordered, his voice deadly.

“What’s happening here!?” a voice said that sent shivers down my spine. Xenon. The rest of the boys came...

“Claire, what are you doing!?” Lucas asked in shock.

“Uno,” I ordered without any more words. Uno raised her gun and pointed it at them before they got closer.

“What the heck!” Coby cursed. “Oh, shit!” Xenon cursed.

“Babe...” Lucas said softly but nervously, trying to take a step.

“Take a step, and I’ll shoot you,” Uno threatened. Lucas stopped mid-air and gulped.

No one wants to mess with Uno... and she only listens to me.

“Claire, put the gun down,” Xenon said with authority.

“I’m evil, you know, and I never listen,” I playfully stated, twirling the gun, but my voice was flat.

“Ki-kill me then...” Jenna said, but fear was evident in her voice. She wanted to die, but something was pulling her to stay alive.

“Why would I kill someone who wants to die?” I asked the obvious, staring intensely into her eyes. My expression hardened, scaring her; she shivered in fear from the sudden change in my emotions. “This is for him,” I coldly stated as I pointed the gun toward... Adrian.
