Chapter 75

Jack asked the first question and Jeremy looks up at him, pupils dilated and unfocused.

"What is your name?" Jack repeats.

"Jeremy Carmichael."

"How old are you?"

"Sixteen."

"What is your birth faction?"

"Erudite."

"When you chose a few weeks ago, what faction did you choose?"

"Dauntless."

"Please, tell us what happened on the evening of June 12th," Jack says and everyone in the room falls silent and listens carefully.

"I was returning from the cafeteria to the dorms when I saw Monica. I went to talk to her but she acted like she didn't want to."

"Did you ever think that she didn't want to talk to you?" Jack asks, trying to keep it together and be as professional as possible, but all those months of working together and spending time together taught me to distinguish his behavior from indifferent to disgusted or even angry. He is as good as Tobias in hiding his own feelings, but not in an intimidating way.

"No," Jeremy answers. "She has the hots for me and I thought hey maybe we could just hook up."

I'm disgusted with him. He actually believes that what he is saying makes sense and justifies his actions.

"What happened next?" Jack continues the interrogation.

"We went to a small maintenance room where we had sex," he says matter-of-factly.

"Did she go willingly?" Jack asks.

"Of course," Jeremy answers and we all gasp in shock. These are two different versions of the same events.

"Is this your statement, Mr. Carmichael? That Ms. Taylor came with you willingly?"

"Yes."

"Did she at any point resist your advances?"

"She pretended to, but I know she wanted to fuck me," he answers bluntly.

"Did she scream or say she didn't want to have intercourse with you?" Jack asks and the disgust he is feeling is starting to pour out.

"She pretended. I like it when girls pretend they are all defenseless. But they are all sluts. They all want to get fuck hard by a real cock," he says and I can feel Tobias tense even more next to me. I look at him and he throws daggers at Jeremy. I think if I wouldn't hold his hand and rub my finger over the back of it he would jump up and rip Jeremy to pieces. Not just because of me, but because Jeremy is despicable and deserves the worst fate our law system could come up with.

"How did you know she pretended?" Jack asks.

"I just did. I mean look at me? All the girls want a piece of me," he says grinning.

"Ms. Taylor told us that while you climaxed you called someone else's name. Is that true?" Jack asks and Tobias grabs my hand tightly.

"Yes."

"Could you tell us the name of that person?"

"Tris," he says smirking.

"Do you mean Tris Eaton, leader of Dauntless?" Jack asks. We all know he means me, but it's necessary for the procedure to be precise.

"Yeah, the finest piece of ass I ever wanted to fuck. Unfortunately, her boyfriend keeps interfering," he says. I have to pull Tobias toward me to keep him from leaping toward Jeremy and beat the shit out of him. I understand him. I want to do the same. But before anything we are leaders and we need to show that we respect the law.
