Chapter 4 Mine!

Annabel's Pov.

"Please... don't hurt him, please," I begged while tugging on the sleeves of the scary huge man with bloodshot eyes just when he was about to smash Elijah's face with a rod.

He turned around sharply to stare at me and our eyes held each other for some minutes. I could not tear my eyes away from him no matter how hard I tried because of how beautiful, manly, and perfect the man was. With just a single stare from him, my body was already acting different and I was feeling things I had never felt before.

His bloodshot eyes had given way to an icy pair of beautiful green eyes that were just too gorgeous to look away from. I could see the longing and hunger in his mesmerizing green orbs, and it felt like they were calling for me... like they had been waiting for me.

I had never seen this man in my life but it felt like I knew him more than my own name, my body felt weirdly on fire around him but for some reason, I knew within me that he was the only person that could put the fire off. I had an overwhelming urge to grab a handful of his jet-black before gently tracing his perfect face with the back of my hand.

I felt like covering his entire body from the gaze of other females and taking him to a place where only I would be privileged to see him. I couldn't explain why my body was suddenly yearning so badly for him when he had just hurt the only boy I had ever had a crush on! But it was, and as much as I wanted to deny it, the truth is that, with the few minutes of this hot man being here, he had gotten me wrapped around his fingers...

"Let him go," I said authoritatively and he immediately dropped Elijah on the ground like a sack of grains. I rushed to the injured boy, cursing at myself for acting like a two-timer and a whore. Here I was fantasizing about a random guy who attacked an innocent person unprovoked like a madman.

And of all the people he could have decided to showcase his taekwondo styles on, why did it have to be Elijah? Just when I was happy that Elijah had been touched by an angel in college to finally begin to give me peace now that he was back for the holidays.

If there was one thing Mr. Wesley and his wife Victoria did not joke about was their precious sons as they were the apple of their eyes, but now that this has happened and I am in the centre of it, I guess I can brace myself to continuously receive the worst kind of experience till I turn 18.

"Are you okay? Come on, I'll take you to the nurse." I said to Elijah while trying to help him get up but he pushed my hands away and got up on his own.

He spat out the blood in his mouth and curled his hand into a fist before staring threateningly at the hot man. "And who do you fucking think you are? Huh? You think you are so tough right." he said walking briskly to the hot man who was just staring weirdly at me like I had suddenly grown more than one head.

"Elijah, don't do this...please, just let it go. We'll report him to the school authorities." I pleaded with Elijah when I saw the determination in his eyes to get back at the other guy. I had never seen Elijah this mad before and it seemed like this would be the fight of the season.

"Shut up and let go of me," Elijah yelled at me before forcefully removing the grip I had on his hands. He walked to where the gorgeous man was at and tried to drag him just as he had been dragged earlier but immediately his hand had reached his collar, it got bent and twisted around, the gorgeous man kept applying pressure in the twist till Elijah was begging to be freed.

But it was only when the school's Director and some scary-looking men came into the court that Elijah's hand was finally freed and he was carried to the clinic while cursing and threatening the hot man to be certain of his return.

"Everyone! Get back to class and await your punishments." The director yelled angrily. I quickly put the roses in my bag and tried to mix with the small crowd of students desperate to run into their various classrooms but before I could get out, a hand drew me back, and it felt like I had been slammed into a hard rock but when I looked up, I realized it was actually a hard chest.

My eyes came in contact with the familiar green orbs that looked like they were glowing now. "Anna? Is this... you?" The gorgeous man asked while looking at me in awe like we had known each other in the past.

Shocked by the way he called my name and the intensity of his stares, I subconsciously took a step back, and I can swear I heard him growl like a wolf before he took two steps forward and wrapped his hands around my waist.

"Never step away from me again! You are mine forever!" He growled loudly in my face shocking the life out of me.

I am still trying to understand what is going on and why the school director was just watching our interaction without doing anything, when all of a sudden all the men that came with the director just turned around and started to leave, leaving only both of us at the court.

"Hey! Let go of me!" I yelled, while desperately trying to free myself from his tight grip, but the more I yelled to be free the more he squeezed my tiny body harder into him, like he was trying to get into my skin.

"Who are you? And why are you shortening my name? Only my close friends call me Anna and the last time I checked, you are a stranger." I said while still struggling to free myself.

"I am your mate, Anna Garfield! And I will never let you go again!" He said authoritatively before pushing his lips to mine and sucking hard on them like he had been waiting for ages to do it.
