DAISY'S BUTTERFLIES

Ten.

ALEX'S POV

Windy looked around. There was no sign of Miss Boring.
She frowned at me. "I really don't like what you're doing to her Alex. I admit, you're so damn hot and rich, but Daisy deserves-" "You talk too much you know."

I laughed rising off the bench.
"She needs to realise that no girl can ever say no to me. Especially not Stew's little sister."

Windy moaned a protest.
"You're such a bastard Alex!" "Ha! Ha! Ha! I know sweetheart. Now go make sure she's fine. I'll go find something to wear tonight. And yes, make her damn pretty for me."

The female stood, her glare landed flatly on me. "Hurt her and you'll have me to deal with you devil!" She punched my abdomen walking past me... I coughed holding the attacked area. Man! The girl could really cause me trouble.

I went through the photos I had snapped earlier in the day with Windy and Daisy.
There was one that really pulled out the bastard in me... Daisy was all covered in cream, with her tongue sticking out to lick her lips.
Something went bizarre inside.

She looked so damn cute and care free. Like the whole world could go fuck itself if it wanted to.
I tossed the device on the bed and slid off my T-shirt to stand before the full-length mirror.

I was still in shape, the abs, the muscles, the firmness. So why was Daisy resisting me?
"Or is there another bastard in her life? I'll squeeze him out before he gets her. She's my target!" I growled at the reflection.

Standing with Stew and a bunch of his friends, a strong wave of beauty struck me.
My eyes wandered off to the two girls standing at the entrance of the hall. And she was there, looking like the devil in a fierce red gown.

This was not one of her usual little kids dresses. It was a stunning sleeveless gown with such a detailed neckline of sparkly little diamonds.
She was surely here for a heart-slaying mission from the underworld.
"Alex!" Someone poked my ribs. Heck! One second of ungluing my eyes off of her to look at Stew and she was gone... The hall was too crowded, with the music and the buzzing people.

"What are you stari-"
"Enough questions Mister. Why don't you get us some drinks... I'll just go, look for, someone."
He raised a suspicious eyebrow. "I hope it's not-"
"Shut up and get them man!" I laughed slapping his arm.

With fake smiles and endless hugs from the girls, I searched. For five minutes, there was no trace of her... And just when I was about to exit the building to go look outside, a flaming red figure standing at the drinks table caught my attention.
She was facing the other side, lending me her open flawless back that the straps running down her shoulders met at the lower waist. She was tempting the demons in me tonight.

Just one person away from her, a male showed up. He quickly pulled her in a tight hug that I could almost feel her lack of air.
He had dark hair, a slim body that I could break all the bones in it. But damn he had such a great smile. Obviously not a killer one like mine.

"Wanna dan-"
"Hands off!" I ordered snatching the girl to my side.

Her innocent gray eyes rocketed up to mine. Then the innocence was lost, replaced by fury and sheer anger that'd have been enough to send me to hell without dying. "YOU!"
"Yes, me." I smiled sweetly.
"Daisy who's this son-of-"
"Cut the shit man. Don't you know who I am? Haven't they told you who rules the streets of this college?" I growled pushing Daisy behind me if any blood would be spilled.

"Alex Baxter!" He roared.
And I was so pleased to be honest. So he knew my name, he knew I was in charge.
"I'll let this slide cause you're just a freshman." I stepped closer to hiss a threat that Daisy would not hear. "Daisy's mine. If I smell you around her again, I'll kill your soul!"

I could see the fear in his clear blue eyes. It sparked like lightning in them.
"I'm cool man."
"Good! Now buzz off."
He rushed put of sight. Disappearing in the dancing crowd.

I breathed. Deeper, and deeper to calm that smashing monster that always got me in fights.
Someone grabbed my arm before making me turn.
"What the hell!" Daisy squeaked so angrily. So sexily.
"It's called claiming what's mine," I whispered cupping her jaw.

She hit my hand to yell. "I hate you so much Alex. Just fuck off!"
There were tears in those gray twins. And for a split of a second, I wanted to kiss them away. But that'd make her even more frustrated with her Mister Universe.

"Trust me, the feeling is mutual Miss Boring. But no random stupid guy is going to bother you when I'm around."

She raised her hand, then balled it into a fist... I thought I'd receive a heavy blow, but instead, she only growled through clenched teeth and stormed away.
"Well that was fierce for her!" I chuckled at myself.
