Draco's POV

I stared down into her eyes as I felt myself start shaking with anger. It took everything I had not to grip her throat harder in frustration, anything to get her to listen to me.

This fucking stubborn, angelic, unknowing girl, had turned my life into a beautiful burning hell. My world quickly was becoming an inferno around me and I would not let her burn with it. No matter what she wanted.

I pushed her slowly up against the wall, her eyes glaring into mine with frustration. I held her there by her throat tightly, as I leaned down to whisper "Do not test me Adealia. For right now you will fucking listen to me." My jaw clenched in fury as I tried to control myself and not just lock her up in my dorm to keep her safe. It was dangerous for me to even be here with her, but I didn't care. I couldn't tell her the truth but I could save her from it.

She looked up to me, radiating anger from her beautiful hazel eyes. She was glowing in the dim light of the room. Her school uniform from the day still on, wearing another one of those skirts that made me want to kill anyone who looked at her soft exposed skin. Her deep red thigh high socks hugging her legs for warmth. A new kind of emotion flashed through me when I thought of people seeing her like this when I wasn't here to protect her... Jealousy.

"No," she said coldly.

My breathing became heavy in disbelief as I watched her before me. My anger began to escape my body as incredulous laughter as I ran my free hand through my hair and shook my head as I looked down at her stubborn expression. She looked up at me in slight confusion at my reaction.

I don't know what came over me, I stared at her neck underneath my hand and a sense of knowing flooded my emotions. I pointed my wand at the base of her throat and whispered,

"Revelio."

Her eyes widened in fear as she gasped out.

Slowly her beautiful skin revealed love bites and bruises littering it, exposing her. I undid the top button of her shirt and used my wand to slide back the cotton white fabric to reveal her shoulder and collarbone. Soft purple and black bruises lightly covered them, she looked up with me, her eyes glossed over with tears.

I took deep breaths trying to control myself as a stab of pain hit me square in the middle of my chest. I closed my eyes as I turned my head slightly away from her and ran my thumb across her jaw bone. Her mouth quivered under my touch.

"Draco..." she breathed out, her voice exposing her fear.

I turned my head back to face her as I rolled my tongue in my cheek. I breathed in deeply, my eyes still closed as images of them played like a horror film in my head. Her moaning for him. Her wanting him. Abruptly the jagged emotional knife in my sternum removed itself, and in its wake it left something I wasn't prepared for.

Outright rage.

I opened my eyes and saw my reflection in her teary eyes looking up at me. My expression was dark, my jaw clenched, I could see the rage in my eyes as I stared down at her. I grabbed her chin roughly and held her between my fingers tightly. She was so fucking delicate in my hands.

"Did you beg for him?" I asked, exposing my jealousy as I remembered her begging for me in the bathroom after our date.

Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion as she tried to shake her head. "What-" she breathed out.

I cut her before she could finish her question. "Did you beg for that filthy, repulsive, fucking excuse for a boy, to fuck you?" 

My blood ran like venom through my veins. I had never experienced rage like this before. Seeing them kiss in the paper had only made me angry because of her thrusting herself so carelessly into the public eye. Unaware of the consequences that it could cause.
