章 64: Chapter Sixty - Four : You Are Mandated To
Lia was currently having a headache, having Ben and Trevor in the same car was proving to be a bad idea.
"Don't you have something better doing than clinging into my sister? " Trevor questioned with this huge scowl on his face.
"It's not called clinging but looking out for her " Ben ridiculously defended himself.
"Looking out my butt " Trevor said with an angry snort. Their argument gained tempo as they continued bellowing back and forth.
Their squabble was so hot and frustrating that Lia couldn't have been more grateful when they reached school.
Parking the car, she fled away before the duo could catch up with her and swore never to have a sleepover with Ben.
Though Ben didn't tell her but she had a feeling the boy was born with a silver spoon, cause he didn't go home for a change of clothes but somehow ended up getting his hands on very expensive clothes from one of the departmental stores in town after their 'morning test ' .
Though they were well-off but Lia wouldn't risk spending that much on clothing , infact his actions somehow made her curious about his background.
Why would someone of such a background cling to her side like an octopus , not that she was suspicious of Ben's intentions for befriending her but she was just plain curious.
Moreover, his behaviors were totally alien and unfit of a young master .
" Well, none of my business." She thought and had barely opened her locker before Caroline approached her.
Oh God, Lia groaned. She barely had strength left to deal with her after putting up with Ben and Trevor.
"Hi " Caroline said with this sweet smile on her lips.
Lia blinked unsure. Strange, why did it look like Caroline was smiling at her? wait... she was really smiling.
" Hi? "
There was a slight blush on Caroline's cheeks and the fact her eyes were darting around nervously made Lia frown the more.
"Do I owe you something ? " Lia asked wondering why she approached her
Caroline scratched her scalp awkwardly
"Urm, hey " She began "I know we didn't start out great but let's bury the hatchet and become friends alright ?"
That's a first
"Fine " Lia agreed
"Friends then" Caroline thrust forth her hand for a handshake
"Friends " Lia took her hand, sealing the deal.
Caroline gave a wide smile "A-ha , least I forget " She said tucking a stray hair behind her ears " I have a party this coming Friday at my place and you're welcome alongside your er... friend? "
The slight stressed look on Caroline's face told Lia , Ben was standing beside her.
"Alright, see ya " Lia gave her a wave before turning to look at Ben.
"What? " Ben shrugged when he noticed the strange look she was giving him.
" Nothing " She pursed her lips and shook her head sympathetically.
If Lia was asked to describe Ben, she would simply call him Harry Potter lookalike especially with his messy curly hair and the gold rimmed glasses he was donning.
"You should feed soon " he said.
"What? " She asked taken aback momentarily.
"Your eyes, they're blue " Ben explained gesturing to her eyes.
Lia blinked, the colour thingy was going to be hard to control. Imagine, if this had happened in front of a total stranger, it would've pose a problem.
But the thought of feeding off Asher had her blushing tomato red. The last time she fed from him, a lot went down.
"I can't now, classes are about to begin "
"Why worry when your boyfriend's the principal? " Ben wondered.
Lia glared at him as she refuted his claim "Asher is not my boyfriend "
"Then who is he? "
Lia tried to speak but she just couldn't find the right words to express herself. "H-He's just... just.. just Asher. Asher is just Asher and totally none of your business " She shunned him off with a strict warning.
"Really? " A very deep sultry voice said from behind her and her heart dropped.
Oh my God. Asher.
She turned around rigidly while swallowing deeply, mumbling curses on Ben for choosing such a bad time to ask his question.
"Principal Asher " She forced a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes.
"My favourite student " He smiled back, a mischievous glint in his eyes . The game was on and they both knew it.
"To what do I owe this pleasant visit, principal Asher ?" She asked eyeing the curious gossips and onlookers.
"I seem to remember we both have unfinished business, don't we? " Asher played along.
"Ahh, yes sir " She replied coquettishly, lowering her head.
"Then I'll be expecting you in my office " He ordered and stride away leaving the students full of questions. They wondered what the new girl had done this time?
" Didn't you receive a summoning order?" Ben teased, wriggling his brows suggestively.
Lia slapped him on the back of his head "Get lost " and left to go answer Asher. For some strange reasons, her heart couldn't help but feel giddy, what was she anticipating?
Asher's secretary signaled her to go in as soon as she arrived the reception lounge but she took a break, trying to assemble her scattered thoughts.
She stood outside and took a deep breath before she knocked twice, turned the doorknob and walked in.
Asher was relaxing against his office desk with his sleeves folded upwards , it looks as if he was patiently waiting for her and that alone made her feel butterflies in her stomach .
She had to admit, eventhough the guy was an ancestor but he looked under twenty and like one of those hot models that appeared on cover papers, infact he looked better, without the makeup and all.
"What are you thinking? " He asked breaking her reverie. His breathtaking green eyes staring at her curiously.
Scratch that - he looked like one of those sexy dark Gods that was only found in fantasies. How could someone be this beautiful?
"Why did you call me? " Lia avoided his question smartly. If she began to relay the nonsense in her head, he would surely laugh her to scorn.
"What do you think?Especially with your eyecolor like that? " He asked back and began to unbutton his shirt causing her throat to dry up.
She couldn't tell what was on his mind especially with the way his eyelids veiled his eyes, hiding his intentions from her.
Swallowing deeply, she asked "Do I need to drink from your neck, can't your wrist do -"
"Yes, you seriously need to " he cut in immediately " You are mandated to "
