CHAPTER 10
*
I squeaked and struggled against his grip. A small cry came out of my mouth, as Arthur tighten his grip on my neck. The bastard smiled cunningly. With the press of his thumb, my muscles started shaking, forcing me to sink to my knees. Still smirking, he leaned forward, and hissed in my ear, “I’ve got you, little girl.”
We shared an intense glance before he released his grip. I would have crumbled to the ground if I had not used my hands as a shield to prevent a crash. I swore a blue strike when my shoulder bounced off the ground.
“Pottymouth,” he said as he gave me his hand and helped me stand up and steady myself when I swayed.
Self-defense training was one of the classes that I would have with Arthur. He brought me the news when he got back to his underground apartment. Merlin had agreed that I should stay out of the spotlight for a while and had accepted Arthur’s offer to train me on time manipulation and self-defense.
We had been training in an inner yard linked to his living room, that looked like a cave decorated with plants and a small fountain of water. I was in my Academy uniform, with the black-purple skirt and the black shirt. I had my hair twisted into two twin buns on the top of my head. Arthur insisted that I should not change into a sports attire, as he wanted to make sure that I would be able to defend myself even if I were in high heels. In fact, he requested that I wore high heels during our next lesson. I wondered if his request was made for training purposes, or he just liked kinky.
Before we started practicing, I sneaked into the bathroom to add some extra mascara and lip gloss using the makeup I found in one of the drawers. “Apparently, these are not Arthur’s,” I thought and laughed out loud.
I had not returned to my room yet since after the two attacks against me, Arthur would not let me wander around the campus yet. Nor I would risk it before we sorted out why I was attacked.
I was scared to death. I was still trying to process all those dangerous things that had happened to me in less than 48 hours. I tried to flash forward time to see what the next chapter in my life would be, but Merlin cast was still in effect.
After what happened, living alone in my room was a no-no. Arthur had offered me a room in his bizarre place to live until everything was over and I felt safe again. However, I was not sure how wise that would be. I had just met the guy, moving in with him did not sound decent to me. Not to mention that I did not fully trust him. Not yet. He was polite and well mannered, however, there were times I felt nervous with him around. One moment, I felt physically attracted to him, and the next, he made my hair stand up on the back of my neck.
