Lyova's POV:
I stood on the starting line with 7 other individuals, including Hunter.

I stretched my legs and tried to warm up and prepare, careful not to press on my bruises.

I need to win this so I can make Hunter stay away from me. I don't want him to get hurt or find out about anything. Also as long as he stays close to me, I don't think my heart can take it. This strange feeling and attraction to him.

I need it to stop.

"You think you can beat him?", Yuma walks over and asks me.

"Maybe. I'm hoping to", I reply looking up at him warmly.

"Good luck", he pats my back and smiles As he walks away.

His touch and smile is warm, it reminds me of Lysander. Sander tried to talk to me again this morning before I left, but I ignored him again.

Both Lysander and Cyan have been trying to talk with me, but I kept them away.

Sorry, Cyan...I really can't say anything for now...

"Huh...? You in this race too, Loser", I hear someone say and I immediately turn to face him, feeling a shiver go down my spine.

Drake looked down at me and smacked my shoulder cautiously.

"Hi...Drake. Why are you here...?! Is Aisha here too...?", I inquired.

Drake was Aisha's friend he was also a member of a gang around the area in secret.

If I didn't know better, I would've thought that Drake loved Aisha and despised me. Aisha seemed to rely on Drake quite a bit too, she always used him to intimidate me and get me to listen to her and it has worked.

"Aisha would never come to this disgusting place. Don't you dare even imagine her here to see your shitty means of racing", he glared at me and I nodded. "Speaking of her. You'd better be on time to meet her later and don't you dare annoy her! I'll kill you if you do! Why are you racing anyway? You aren't going to win because I will!", he chuckled smacked me one last time before walking away.

I winced as he smacked right into my abdomen where Aisha and him had given me a bruise just the other day.

I wince a bit and turn back to stretching. I pick up my bottle to stay hydrated and notice a pair of eyes on me.

Why is he staring at me...?

"Are you ok? Who was that?", Hunter walks over and asks me with a concerned look.

"Nobody... It doesn't concern you besides we had a deal right? Whoever wins the race gets to make the other person do something".

He nods with a sigh at my response and he returns to stretching.

I stretch as well, while watching him and observing...I'm just observing...his broad chest and strong body. He wasn't too muscular like a muscle man, but his  firm and strong muscles shouldn't be underestimated either. His build was definitely manly. Something that I could never get despite all the workouts I do.

I continued to observe him. His body was magazine cover eligible and a body that any guy would want and girls would drool over... Not to mention his face was pretty hot and his hair was well kept and styled.

He turned and met my eyes, probably feeling my stares and smirked as he saw me staring.

My face lights up and I duck and avert my eyes to the ground, pretending to take out my phone.

Shit! He totally saw me staring!

The whistle sounds soon afterwards and an announcement calls all runners to the starting line.
