My morning went by quick.

All we did was talk. But I didn't want to talk anymore. I wanted to get dicked down. But I had classes.

Yeah remember that? Yeah college classes that I'm now officially behind in.

With my last class of the day in about 15 minutes I sit outside the classroom writing down every single assignment I'm behind in.

Only 4 papers, 12 computer modules, 33 chapters, and 4 make up online quizzes to do.

Cool. So freaking doable by Friday evening....hahahaha not. Fucking a. This week is going to suck.

"Tsk tsk tsk." An all too familiar unwelcoming voice chimes in to my ear as the person who I really don't like sits down next to me.

"Hello there sweet Charlotte." Dane coos.

"Hey fuckface." I mumbled as I kept writing down ideas for my religion paper.

Religious beliefs and the supernatural.

Vampires and Modern Christianity.

"So someone knows and is officially marked." Dane spoke again lifting his hand near my hair. I guess he was going to look at my mark.

"Ryder?" He asked me.

"Yep. And if you piss me off too much then he can be here in about 26 seconds. He's only in the science labs over there. In all honesty, he's probably already watching us." I said staring out over the pathways up to the 3rd floor of the science lab portion of the building.

Yep, that curtain most definitely moved. That's my Ryder. I smirked and turned my attention back to my notebook.

"I just wanted to say hi. No need to get all pissy. Also this don't high school anymore Char. Get a laptop." Dane retorted.

"Well Dane. Not all of us are fucking loaded from mooching off our parents. Also, when you find your beloved and her ex is trying to flirt, you will understand how my Ryder feels. Now, get your sorry little dick out of my man's seat." I said turning to face him fully.

As soon as I finished my sentence a small rush of wind flew up around me.

"Ahhh. Ryder. About time you got here." Dane said smirking but he did stand up.

I continued to keep writing in my notebook. Trying to form more ideas. I hate papers. I hate school.

A loud snap brings me out of my train of thought as I jerk up to see the boys wrestling each other to the ground.

These assholes want to start shit in school. What the actual fuck. Cavemen. They are all fucking cavemen.

"Ryder. Dane." I dead panned. Annoyed at their inability to go 2 minutes without fighting.

The classroom I was waiting on finally let the students exit and when it was clear I walked around the boys.

"I know you guys are like mortal enemies now that you know that Dane and I had sex in high school, but Ryder I'm yours. It will never change." I said as I sat down on the wooden seat.

"I know my love. But I can't get a thought of my head. What if he's your shadow man?" Ryder asked softly as other students filled the room.

I thought back to the times that shadow man appeared. His build, how he walked, not like Dane. Dane was definitely cocky for sure, but he didn't have the build and his gait was different then the shadow man.

Also, yes, I watch people. Like a freaking creeper. I like going places and people watching. Not judging or making fun of people. Just staring.....like a creeper.

Makes it sound even worse now that I'm saying it would to myself.

Maybe I should stop doing that.

I wonder how many times people have caught me staring at them..not like I ever notice.

"Bambi." A voice startled me. Ryder.

I smiled at him.

"You are the worst when you get sidetracked by your own thoughts." Ryder said smiling at me.

Fuck he looks good.

"Sorry. I really don't think that Dane is the shadow man. You know I people watch. Dane is cocky as you can tell. Shadow man had a bigger build and the way he walked was different. More determined like a man on a mission." I said following my thoughts.

Ryder nodded. Probably not agreeing with me because he rarely does unless it's about sex, well even then we almost agree about which position. Who's in charge...etc.

I shake my head as I glance sideways at Ryder.

His smirk gets larger as he slings his arm around me bringing our desks closer.

Damn he knew what I was thinking about.

"Later my sweet beloved." He whispered huskily as the teacher started droaning on about scientific equations and the people they were named after.

I don't remember any of this dumb shit from high school who says I will remember it now?

Oh yeah. Because now I have to pay to hear this shit.

I roll my eyes as Ryder swiftly brings out his laptop and starts typing away.

I shook my head at him as he glanced at me and smiled. I started writing down all of my notes in my chicken scratch.

I could feel his eyes on me still as the teacher kept talking in his monotone voice.

I feel his hand gently lay over my hands and he smiles again. I wink as I hold is hand with my left hand and keep writing.

Class goes by quickly, thank the heavens.

As we leave the classroom my hand is grabbed again by Ryder.

"My love. I need to take care of a few things in admin. Go back to my place. We can study again today." He said and handed me his keys.

My eyes grew triple in size.

"You are going to let me drive your precious?" I asked giddily.

He rolled his eyes.

"You are my precious." He growled as he brought me in closer.

"Mmm...but this truck is your dream truck." I whispered.

"And you are my dream. And you will look so fucking hot driving my truck. I should take you out there right now and show you how much I fucking love you." He whispered huskily as he shoved my body even closer to his.

I moaned softly.

"I can smell you my beloved." He whispered. His voice going deeper and deeper.

"Ry....just come home with me." I whispered.

His body moved away from me quickly and I groaned at the loss of his body.

"I will be home soon. Just hold on to those thoughts." He said and winked at me.

I groaned and grabbed my backpack off the ground.

"Can you drop off this payment paperwork to the payment office when you go to admin?" I asked handed him a few papers.

He raised his eyebrow carefully at me.

I smiled softly at him and patted his cheek. "Thanks my love." I whispered and left a kiss on his cheek.

"Later." He said again winking and I rolled my eyes and turned on my heel to leave.

I could hear his deep chuckle as I walked off.

His ass needs to be beat.

Asshole leaving me all horny and shit.

Fine, fuck it. I will take care of it myself when I get home.

Asswipe has "errands" to run instead of coming home and ignoring our homework and fucking my brains out.

It took about 15 minutes of grumbling myself to get to his truck. He refused to park close because people might scratch or dent it.

This truck is treated better then anything in that boys life right now and that includes me since he didn't take me home and take care of my needs.

Asswipe.

Dick munch.

I start to lift myself up in to the truck because it's lifted and even with me being 5'7" it was still a stretch for me to get up.

As I grabbed the door, A hand met my ass and I screamed and kicked backwards.

I kept screaming even when the hands grabbed my sides. I kicked even harder, my breathing becoming erratic.

Who the actual fuck does this? I swung my legs back again frantically kicking trying to finding whoever it is back there.

My heel of my slip-ons connected and I definitely hit the family jewels of my creepy grabber.

The man dropping to ground with a thud and groaning. Hopefully I kicked hard enough to make him sterile.

I screamed again as I turned around with my backpack in my hands. I swung it up to hit whoever grabbed me.

"Fuck Bambi." The voice choked out.

"Sam? What the actual fuck do you think you are doing?" I asked.

"Fuck." He mumbled.

"I'm not fucking sorry." I yelled out at him. "Why the actual fuck would you do something like that?" I yelled.

"Ryder told me you were alone and wanted me to watch you." He groaned still on the parking lot cement.

"That fucker." I mumbled stepping over Sam. His blonde hair splayed out in different directions.

"Get in the fucking truck." I mumbled hopping into the truck.

He groaned and slowly made his way to the passenger side.

The drive home was filled with loud rock music and Sam groaning and shifting uncomfortably in the passenger seat.

I don't feel bad for what I did. No one grabs this ass without my consent.

As we park in front of Ryder's house I jump out and grab my backpack.

"Charlotte. Stay in the truck." Sam whispered lowly.

"Huh? Why?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

He pointed towards the house.

I gasped at what I saw.

The front wooden door wide open. A few papers blowing out of the front door. The door cracked and still hanging on by one of the hinges.

A couple of the front windows were broken that even surrounded the front door.

The potted sunflowers that were by the front door were now dumped and strewn about the front door.

"Fuck." I whispered softly.

I grabbed my phone from my back pocket and called Ryder.

"My love I told you..." He started in a deep sexy voice.

"Ryder. Please. You- you n-need to come home n-now." I whispered softly still staring at the front door.

No response as I knew he had hung up and would be here soon.

I looked over at Sam who by then had gotten out of the truck and held my hand for comfort. I latched on to his arm and held on to it like my life depended on it.

Thats when it all happened.

The shadow man was through the front door on the other side of the house.

After that everything went black.

I think I know who the shadow man is.

Amd I never thought it would have been him.
