CHAPTER 56 : JEALOUS?

A week flew past like the wind. I didn't see time moving or I simply didn't heed to it at all . I was always locked in the library reading or trying to practice the spells.
I had a fight with Dom, he beat me to puddle. I overestimated myself. It was a memorable event.
..... I tied my wrist firmly and punched the air twice and did some crazy warm ups. Abi and Ari were staring at me the entire time. Abi was a little dull since Sandy left. They were always together and unbreakable. I could imagine how desolate she felt.
"Are you sure you want to fight with Dom?"
I nodded and Abi shook her head in disbelief.
"Can you shake your pretty head and see if all the nerves upstairs are intact"
I glared at Ari "hey, you won't insult me"
"You know what? You're very amusing!" Said Abi.
"I know right?" I responded cockily.
"Ready?" Dom walked in flexing his muscles. He was shirtless showing off his abs, packs and his huge shoulders.
"Could please stop being shirtless!" I urged
"Did I have an effect on you?"
He smirked, this man was so full of himself.
"Who said so? I just don't want your mate to tear me apart especially now that...
I almost spilled the beans
"Come on a shirt on" I ordered and he grabbed one off Ethan's body.
"Hey big man!" Ethan yelled
"Come on we're the same size it won't get torn!"
"You're fighting a cat!" Ethan yelled out, I glared at him and he only feigned a smile
"A car you say? I am a tiger!"
"Mr. Vampire, get your ass over here!" I yelled.
Will they keep on teasing me?
"I can't pluck it out for you, it's stuck on me!" He pouted
Everyone else laughed at me. My fave turned beet red from the embarrassed. Dom made a face at me as he pulled on the shirt.
I can't wait to hit you hard!
He stepped into the ring and Xavier and Clark sat at the announcement desk. The others sat on the rows watching us .
Xavier cleared his throat bossily.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the arena. My name is Xavier Will, I am your host with...
"Your handsome boy Clark Gavin" Clark chipped in
"We welcome you yet again to witness the fight between Becky and Dom. You can place your votes" he said trying to imitate the TV presenters.
"I vote Dom" Abi said Dom grinned broadly
"I vote Dom" Ari and Lisa said
"Dom!"
Aimee, Megan, Adelyn, Roy, Curl, Harrison, Harvey all voted for Dom
"Hey guys no one is voting for me?"
"Sorry best friend" Ethan yelled
"Who's your best friend? You didn't vote for me!" I shot at him.
"Not even you Abi, or Ari.... Am so disappointed in y'all" I said grumpily. On the other side Dom was enjoying the attention.
"Alright place your money guys" said Clark
"But we have no rival" Ethan yelled wagging a brow at me.
"I am!"
We all turned to the door as Grey made his way in. He was in a black suit and a grey shirt with two top buttons undone. His hair was well kept lapping on his head beautifully. She hair fell over his forehead hovering over his eyes. His piercing green eyes cut through the strands of hair like a sword. His hands were pocketed and he walked firmly like some CEO.
I gulped licking my lips subconsciously.
Yummy!!!
He lifted his dark gaze and stared at me for a moment then he smirked and walked over to sit beside Lisa one leg draped over the other.
"Master....
"I place my bet on the little flake, three million!"
I choked on my own saliva and started coughing profusely. Dom rubbed my back and the familiar growl split at the bottom of my stomach.
What a possessive prince!
"You don't have to!"
He raised a brow at me and said sluggishly.
"But I want to"
Clark stuttered for a moment as he spoke

"Alright the master has placed his bet of three million dollars on Becky, now let's see who'll be victorious"
"Am jealous" Dom whispered
"Why?"
"I got a good number of people voting for me, but the money is not even close to a million"
I smiled feeling all powerful.
"Don't worry, we never get everything we want!" I said my eyes fixed on Grey.
It would be fun if I got the chance to kiss him before I am all sweaty! He is just so irresistible
I wanted to cry
Grey smirked and lifted his eyes to me for a second then looked away.
Why did it have to be him? He was so full of himself! Jerk!
"Alright get ready" Xavier announced
"One, two... Fight!"
I didn't wait, oh what for? I was so eager to beat the ego out of this man.
I used all my strength to hit and kick Dom. But he was so big. I felt like my hits were insect bites to him.
He wasn't fighting back though, was he going easy on me?
"This fight looks so familiar" Clark said
"Way too familiar!" Xavier seconded "do you remember when Ari was the one with the upper hand?"
"What are you talking about?"
"You haven't heard?"Xavier asked
"Am talking about my mom and dad back then. Mom had a lot of mood swings when she was pregnant with my brother. She demanded a fight with dad. It was so funny"
"What happened?"
"You can amagine a vampire speeding around with a baby bump" Clark was dying with laughter as well as everyone else.
I couldn't help it the image in my head was just so funny. I laughed hard forgetting I was in the ring.
A smack on my side brought me back to the ring
"Focus kiddo" Dom scolded
"What? Am the master here!"
"Not in the ring" he made a face and I made a call of dominance. He went silent for a moment and almost went on his knees.
Gosh! I was amazing
"See?"
"Red... You have one last chance Becky. This is a fair fight. We have deducted five points and given them to Dom. Now you're at ten and eight"
Xavier announced
"But I was at fifteen, now at ten" I complained
"Say more and another five will be gone" Clark warned
"Don't order me around or I will make the call on you!" I threatened again.
"Now that will be at zero" Xavier finalized
I stumped my feet tightening my first.
"Come here Mr." I wagged my finger at Dom who had his cocky look back on.
I charged towards him my fist going for his face. I was almost hitting him when Xavier spoke.
"Extreme, injury will result to loose all the remaining ten points"
I grunted retracting the immense force and normalising the punch. Dom groaned silently and stepped back a little.
"Plus three!"
I was overjoyed, Dom smacked my head and I fell back.
"Xavier that was hard"I yelled
"You were the one distracted" he yelled back "plus four for Dom"
I growled fiercely and everyone was laughing at my childishness.
"What was your career before you came here?" Asked Abi who was trying to control her laughter.
"I wanted to be a nun"I answered fiercely
They laughed again.
"Your anger is like a flash flood" Ethan pointed out
"Were you not aware of a career called comedy and acting?"
I sat up "hey, Ari don't tease me!"
"Hurry it's almost half time" Clark called
I stood up immediately and continued, Dom seemed to be enjoying everything.
During the half time I was really pissed. Dom was fighting with me as if I was a kid . A poke here another there a smack here another there. I felt so little.
I sat on the floor grumpily my hands folded over my chest.
"Second half guys, back to the ring!" Xavier announced,I glared at the man who was enjoying teasing me the whole time.
"Come on in princess, we got things to get done with" Dom stood in the ring with his usual cocky smirk. I rolled my eyes walking into the ring.
I did some warm ups promising Dom a dog beating.
"Alright one ... Two...fight ...
My gaze suddenly shifted to Grey, Lisa was leaning into him her head on his shoulder. She was whispering something to Grey who had his eyes Infront of him. If he made a sudden move and turned to face her, they would kiss!
My inside churned and hot bile suddenly burned in my stomach. A sudden force fell on my cheek, I stumbled toppling to the floor. My hair fell over my eyes and I realized I wasn't feeling pain from Dom's punch. The pain was in my heart, I was dying to yank that Lisa of a girl off my prince.
I lifted my eyes to him, he was looking at me as if nothing happened. Rage made me tremble in anger. I suddenly wanted to yank that girl's head off her shoulders!
My eyes turned blazing blue in a split of a second. My nails dug into the floor as I tried to keep my anger in check.
"7...8...
That idiot Xavier... He was counting!
I shot to my feet turning my gaze to Dom. I felt dangerous myself, I wouldn't blame the others for gasping and curling away in fear.
I tightly my fist lifting my eyes to glare at Lisa. Then I charged towards Dom, he stood on spot staring at me. The smell of fear and uncertainty dominated the room....
They were scared?!
.... I feel like I don't know you anymore....who are you... You scare us...the power demands for submission... power...rule the world.... compassion... it's compassion...
Memories scattered in my mind, was I taking my rage out on an innocent person. My fist was an inch away from Dom's cheek. I quickly relaxed my fingers and poked his nose .
"What were you waiting for Mr?" I raised a brow and he was confused for a moment.
"What?!"
I sweeped him off his feet and he fell on the floor!
"I won!" I yelled, "where is my trophy?"
"No so soon missy!"
Dom grabbed my feet and pulled me to the floor wrapping his large arm around my neck.
What?!
"Set yourself free or tap" he said laughing happily
I struggle to no avail, his supporters were busy cheering him on. I could not get out of it, he was so damn strong!
"I give up!" I choke - yelled
I tapped thrice and he let go. I rolled on the floor staring at the ceiling. My breathing was heavy and hard.
I glanced at Grey who was giving me knowing look. I ignored him taking Dom's hand and stood up.
"You are strong Mr" I said
"Told you" he wagged a brow at me
"This only made you even more cocky than you were"
"Seems that is my place"
I lifted my hands in surrender "agreed"
He grinned hugging me briefly.
"The winner is Dom, a round applause for him"
Clark announced boastfully.
They all applauded him as he showed off his muscles.
"Our master lost a whole three million dollars, just like that" Xavier teased
"It ain't funny, how am I gonna pay it all?" I barked
"You don't have to" grey said.
I rolled my eyes at him and said nothing.
"You scared us a moment ago. Don't pull such a prank" Roy yelled
I laughed at him "poor Roy, so you get scared?"
"We all were" said Harvey
"That is good, I wanted to scare you. So I won" I bragged.
They shook their heads in wonder and amusement.
"You're just symphonic" Harrison said
"I love it that way" I winked at him "see you guys later. We are having a drink to celebrate Dom's victory"
"Yay!"
"I miss drinking together" said Curl.
"Good, see you down in thirty " I went off to my room .
Later on as we had our drinks, I noticed Lisa was still way too close to Grey. I was getting even more and more infuriated with her. I sat at the far end of the drinking club with my bottle of wine.
My eyes were on Grey the whole time but he was behaving like he wasn't seeing me. Was love this hard?
Lisa's hand dropped on his thigh but Grey seemed unbothered with it.
The wine glass I was holding broke in my hand. The shards of glasses dug into my flesh but they weren't as bothersome as seeing him with another girl.
The smell of blood made everyone to face me. I smiled awkwardly.
"Am sorry, I was off for a minute, bad memories have no manners at all. I will go to the washroom and clean up!" I excused myself and went to the bathrooms.
My wrist was grabbed from behind and I yanked my hand off.
"What?!"
I didn't even bother to look back.
"You're bleeding"
"I know" I answered coldly.
"Let me help you clean" he suggested
"No need, it's the left hand I can do it" I walked ahead and he ran after me grabbing my shoulders.
I yanked his hand off grabbing him by the collars of his shirt. I kicked the door of a room next to us and shoved him inside. I kicked the door shut and pinned him on the bed.
"What is your problem" I snarled
We were both panting bit I didn't let go of his collars.
He looked shocked and surprised at the same time.
"I just wanted to help you clean the wounds" he said-whispered
"Are you a nurse? Doctor? Care giver?my mother?" I snorted "just mind your business prince"
I let go of his collars and straightened them and stood up.
"I should go get this cleaned, just go back" I said turning to leave.
He grabbed my wrist pulling me down on him.
"What now?"
He flipped me over and kissed me sloppily. He held my wrists above my head and made sure I was breathless before he let go.
I shoved him off me.
"The next time you'll do that, I won't be easy on you. Know who to kiss your highness"
"What is wrong with you?"
"That's exactly my question to you" I shot backat him.
"Alright then, what is wrong with us?" He concluded.
"None of our business, it is" I said and walked out of the room.
I sighed and walked to the bathrooms I removed the glasses and let the wound heal itself. I wrapped a handkerchief around the already healed wound.
I didn't want anyone to find out that I can heal naturally even faster than they can. I washed my face, dried my hands and went back to the club. I sat at the spot I was sitting previously and continued drinking.
"Need company?"
I raised my eyes lazily to look at the silhouette of a man before me
Arthur!
