Chapter 163
Rakari's POV
*20 minutes later*
"Size?"
"5"
"You have some small feet Rakari"
I punched Darius in the arm, "I'm a girl, what did you expect?"
I took the shoes from the lady gratefully and went to our lane while Darius was still talking about how small my feet were,
"I was at least expecting a size 7 or something"
"Yeah but I'm short so it's acceptable"
"I like short girls"
"I better be the only short girl you like"
He wrapped his arms around my waist from behind and leaned down to whisper in my ear,
"You're the only short girl I love"
I smiled and turned around so that I could kiss him properly and at that point I really didn't care that we were in a public place,
"Get a room!"
I smiled against Darius' lips before pulling away from him and looking at Mhakir,
"Get a girl!"
Mhakir blushed and me and Darius laughed and gave each other a high five while Marcus was just glaring at Darius,
"Marcus, lighten up"
"When he's gone I will"
I looked at Darius,
"I'm not going anywhere so suck it up"
Marcus' glare just got more intense and I shifted uncomfortably on my feet, something that didn't go unnoticed by Darius,
"Are you okay?"
"I just don't like the tension"
"I know baby and I'm sorry, I can't help the fact that we hate each other"
"Hate isn't a strong enough word" Marcus muttered under his breath,
"You know what, this was a bad idea, let's go home"
"No!" Marcus jumped up and grabbed my wrist when Darius pushed him back,
"Don't touch her"
"Don't tell me what to do"
"Just remember" Darius stepped closer to Marcus,
"I can kill you" He clicked his fingers,
"Just like that"
Marcus stepped even closer,
"Try me"
I couldn't handle it anymore, I ran out of the bowling alley as quick as I could not wanting to hear anymore of their childish arguments. It's a good thing I didn't change into the bowling shoes otherwise I would look pretty weird right now.
I hate how Darius and Marcus fight over me like my heart is some toy to be played with! Even still, Marcus should know that my heart is now with Darius, it never truly belonged to him in the first place and he should understand that.
'Rakari, where are you?'
Darius' mind message just made me realise that I hadn't stopped running so I did. I came to a halt just when Darius sent me another message
'I'm worried Kari, please answer me'
I sighed and sent him a message back,
'I'm fine'
'Thank heavens, where are you then?'
I looked around me to see if I could get any indication of where I was but there wasn't a street sign in sight so I just gave him the name of the nearest café,
'I know where that is, stay there please, I'll be there soon'
He cut off the mind link and all I could hear was the deafening sound of silence, it was too silent for my liking. I decided to go inside the café seeing as it wasn't exactly hot outside and I wanted to check how I looked before Darius came. I followed the sign to the toilets and looked at my reflection in the mirror immediately and I looked tired to say the least so I ran the tap and splashed some cold water on my face to cool me down a bit and when I looked back up I jumped at the reflection behind me,
"You have nowhere to run, what now?"
"What do you want?"
My voice was extremely shy which is a first because I'm usually quite confident.
He leaned down next to my ear and uttered the next few words that made me shudder in disgust and fear,
"I want you to scream my name"
I could feel the hot tears running down my cheeks as I struggled to form a sentence,
"Do I make you speechless?"
He leaned back,
"Do you fear me?"
He started to stroke my cheek and it felt nothing like the way Darius does it, it felt wrong. I tried to turn away from him but he just grabbed my face and made me look at him,
"Look at me sweetheart"
'Rakari where are you?'
Darius' voice filled my mind and I replied with fear,
'Darius, help me'
'Rakari what's wrong? Where are you?!'
I didn't reply because the guy started talking again,
"I love it when my victims show fear, its makes everything more fun"
I was practically shaking in fear now and I bet your thinking why don't I just shift and kick his ass right? Well I can't because I'm in a public toilets and anyone could just walk in.
The guy started touching my thighs all the way up to waist and I felt like being sick at how wrong it felt,
"This is only the beginning sweetheart"
'Rakari!'
'Darius, please' I sent fearfully,
'Where are you, I need to know where you are!'
'Café toilets'
I never heard a reply but I knew he got the message because the next thing I knew he guy was being thrown off me and he cracked some of the wall tiles on impact,
"Keep your hands off her"
His voice sounded to cold that it sent a chill all the way His voice sounded to cold that it sent a chill all the way down my spine when he spoke.
The man slowly got up and faced Darius,
"She wasn't pushing me off of her, she enjoyed it, didn't you sweetheart?"
He winked at me and I forced myself to swallow the vomit that was threatening to come up,
"She's mine"
Darius was close to shifting so I sent him a mind message,
'Calm down Darius, I'm fine, you can't shift here'
I tried to act confident but even I knew it failed but I saw him visibly relax and I let out a sigh of relief,
"Come on sweetheart, how about you come to my place and I'll show you a good time?"
He licked his lips and Darius snapped. He ran forward and punched him so hard that it knocked him unconscious and at that moment I ran to the nearest stall and threw up in the toilets, the reality had sunk in at that point.
Darius pulled my hair back and started gently rubbing my back while I continued to be sick,
"It's okay baby, I'm here now, don't worry"
I stopped being sick but then I broke down crying and Darius brought me closer to him and started running his hands over my hair while I just cried into his shirt,
"Shhhhh baby, don't cry, I hate seeing you cry"
"T-Take me home p-please"
He didn't say anything but I felt myself being lifted up off the ground and I wondered how he was going to walk through the café holding a crying girl but after 3 seconds of thinking, I stopped caring, I just wanted to go home and cuddle up next to Darius in bed forgetting what happened.
*25 minutes later*
I felt the car stop but I made no attempt to move but I didn't have to because once again I felt myself being lifted up from the seat, my eyes were shut so he probably thinks I'm asleep but I just didn't want to see the pain evident on his face,
"What happened to her? We were worried sick"
"Not now. A lot has happened and I don't want to talk about it"
His voice sounded to empty and hollow and
"Okay"
He didn't say anything else but the way turned a bit steep so I guess we were going up the stairs. We got to his room and he placed me on the bed,
"I'm so sorry Rakari"
He kissed my forehead and I could sense him leaving the room so I took that as my cue to open my eyes,
"Don't go, please don't go"
He stopped in the doorway and turned to face me with a pained look, the exact look I was afraid to see. He close the door and walked over to me and sat on the edge of the bed probably afraid to get too close to me incase I freak out on him,
"Darius, I need you to come closer"
He moved over by about an inch and I felt like slapping him,
"Darius please"
He looked up at me and moved closer. He brought his hand up and started caressing my cheek and I closed my eyes at the safe sensation I got again,
"I'm sorry"
I opened my eyes to look at him,
"Why?"
"I wasn't there to prevent it"
"You stopped the worst from happening and for that I truly thank you with everything I have in me"
He smiled but it didn't reach his eyes so I sat up and took his hand,
"You know I love you right?"
He nodded,
"I know and I love you too"
"Kiss me"
I know it was a bit straightforward but I felt so violated and I needed to feel safe again and only Darius could make me feel like that,
"Are you sure?"
I rolled my eyes as his hesitance and grabbed his shirt to make him kiss me and as soon as his lips touched mine, I felt the usual sparks flying around us and I felt safe
