MILLIE

Embarrassment eats at me while I pull the dress over my body in the bathroom,Logan refused to wait outside the building so I left him seated on my study chair.

I pull at the strings of the dress, feeling uncomfortable. I find myself turning around and checking myself out,well at least my butt is descent.

I keep my face makeup free and put on blocked heels. Flinging the mini bag over my shoulder,I walk out and Logan's head lifts,his eyes immediately run over my body and I squirm under his burning gaze.

He gets to his feet and stalks my way. Licking his lips,his golden brown eyes hold mine hostage.

"Perfect." One word is all he says but it burns underneath my flesh with how his voice comes out.

We walk out of the dorm,my feet move at a speed I didn't think I could manage in heels.

Logan on the other hand,follows slowly behind me, taking his time and not bothering to hide himself. It's like he's proud being seen with me and that just surprises me.

"Why were you rushing back there?" He asks when we settle in the car.

"I-i wasn't."

He doesn't argue with me,he just drives off.

"Is Suzie going to be there?"

He gives a quick glance at me before focusing back on the road.

"No."

I pout at that,

"Why not?"

"She's too young to hang out around us."

I realize we are heading in the direction I've never been to but I don't bother asking him. I somehow trust Logan when it comes to safety but I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. It must be because of how Suzie talks about them all being super protective and never allowing not even a single step of threat towards her.

But that's the thing,I'm not Suzie. So me putting so much faith in these guys to treat me on the same level they do her,is completely stupid.

I turn my head to the side when the door to my side opens,it's then i realize the car has stopped and blue lights are flashing in front of us in a building.

I step out and pull the dress down looking at Logan,he's thrown a hoodie on and has a cap flipped backwards. He looks so handsome and smells musculine and delicious.

I must have stared at him longer than necessary because an arrogant smirk pulls at his lips. Lips that had my feet wobbly not too long ago.

Leading us inside,he walks me to a pair of stairs that go straight to the vip area. I roll my eyes, because as far as I'm concerned, down there is much more fun. The moment he and I come into view,I see different kinds of looks landing on me,some are blank, mischievous and others of distrust and hate.

Logan ushers me further and then whispers in my ear.

"I'll be right back."

A guy with long hair which makes him look like a Viking,whistles when he passes me.

"Now who is this beauty?" He says darkly, making a shiver run through me. It's as though he didn't praise me but threatened me.

Geez,are they all supposed to be scary?

Logan glares at him and the big guy's smile vanishes.

I settle down on one of the empty spaces on the sofa, nervousness and uncomfortability clawing at me. Blood red heels come in line with my eyes,I look up and find a girl looking at me over her nose with a sneer.

"You're in my seat."

"Oh," I go to stand when a voice speaks behind her,stopping me.

"And I wonder who told you that seat is yours,Miley." A girl says from our left.

"News flash Cecilia,I'm with Logan now."

My knees shake at the way she so surely said she's with Logan.

"Just because he fucked you last night doesn't mean you're together."

"What?" I whisper as a lump forms in my throat and I fight to swallow it down.

At that exact moment, I catch sight of Logan,who licks his lips as he tentatively listens to what Viking is saying.

"Do you hear that bitch? Stay away from Logan or else I'll scratch your eyeballs out."

I grab my purse and walk away from the group,I can't do this right now.

In my haste to leave,a soft hand pulls me back to a small space. I turn around ready to punch any girl trying to ruin my mood any further but pause when Suzie narrows her eyes on mine.

"Millie,what the hell are you doing here?"

"What the hell are you, doing here?" I throw her words back at her.

"Defying unnecessary orders. I was calling you just now and then saw you in the crowd. At first,I thought it was just a look alike."

I grab my phone from the purse and find four missed calls from her.

"At first,I thought you were ignoring me because you came without telling me," she says with a hint of disappointment.

"I'm sorry,it was just on short notice. You know Logan,he gave me no choice."

She studies me for a few seconds.

"Why do you look mad?"

"Suzie,who is Miley?"

Her mouth opens and closes a few times.

"Look, Millie. I know Miley can be a bitch at times,so I want you to know that whatever happened between her and Logan didn't mean anything,he just... needed something from her."

So she knew?

"And I'm suppose to understand that he can have sex with just any girl in order to get what he wants?"

"Millie,you don't understand."

"Right,I don't understand. If this is how you guys operate,then i think I don't belong here."

I turn and start to walk away.

"Millie,come on," She calls out but I don't stop.

Bursting through the club doors,I start booking an Uber.

After a few minutes,a car matching the description on my phone comes to a halt in front of me. I open the door but a strong hand slams it shut with a force that makes me jump back.

Looking up,I find a pissed off Logan staring down at me. The driver speeds his car away and I shout in frustration.

"Hey! What the hell?"

I turn to face Logan who has his hand wrapped around my arm. I snatch it away and snarl up at him.

"Don't touch me."

His jaw clenches,he grabs my arm again and frustration bubbles inside of me.

"Logan..leave me alone."

"You already know the answer to that dimples. Now,mind telling me why the hell you're acting like this? Where do you think you're going?"

"Away from you!"

"Why?" He asks through clenched teeth. "You don't get to run away from my bets Millie."

I scoff,

"This is all a fucking game to you,right?"

He frowns,as though my outburst confuses him.

"You think you can hold me to a bet and then sleep around with other girls?"

Recognition seeps into his eyes, making a smirk lift the corner of his lip.

"It meant nothing,it had to be done."

"Well you're wrong, because It does mean something Logan."

His eyes glint with amusement,his smirk twitches some more, causing my anger to multiply. So I snap out the first thing that comes to mind.

"How about I do the same? Sleep with another guy since it means nothing?"

His smirk wipes off but before I can relish in my success,I'm pushed against a tree trunk by the throat with a force that makes me hiss.

"Don't fucking test me Millie."

"Or what? You'll hurt me?"

Silence.

More silence.

"No,I'll cut his balls off and feed them to him after fucking his ass with them. Don't worry, you'll get to watch the show.

A sadistic smile lifts his lips,his eyes darken and glint with a ruthless promise in them. A tremor rushes through my entire body as I try to shake off what he just said.

"So you get to sleep with other people and I don't?" I ask angrily.

"Don't try to play level with me Millie,or you'll break in the end. I do shit for a reason,so don't taint that sainty little side of yours just to be on the same field as me, you'll break."

Tears well in my eyes as I realize that he'll never change that part of him, he'll sleep with anyone he wants and I won't be able to do anything about it.

"I hate you," I whisper with a shattered voice.

"I'll have it any way." Then he licks my lips and then my tears away.

"I'm no prince charming Millie,I'm a fucking villain,and villains don't bend to rules,the rules bend to villains."

"You're a bastard." I don't know why this scene takes me back to that cell. It's the first time in weeks that I've thought about that masked man.

I focus my eyes back on Logan and he smirks again.

"Don't think about another man while I'm touching you Millie."

Then he kisses me, viciously, ruthlessly, hungrily. As if to remind me who I belong to and I foolishly kiss him back with the same hunger for more and more.

In that exact moment,I hate myself and him, because I know that I'm engraving him deeper underneath my skin. Where I'll have to cut myself open and bleed just to get him out.
