The Bully's Obsession novel Chapter 23

　　 I went to bed with the threat hanging all over my head,  aside from the locker incident earlier today there haven't been any other messages .

　　Lyn had kept insisting I tell her the truth... 

　　I didn't. 

　　I couldn't,  she left after that but I assume she was mad at me. 

　　Every time I close my eyes, images of the lifeless doll ...the red paints kept replaying in my head... 

　　I couldn't sleep....not like this... 

　　I froze when my cellphone binged, I shuddered with terror when I saw it was from the same unknown number .

　　My fingers trembled as I read through the message,  I should probably ignore them,  but I couldn't for some unknown reason  .

　　"your blood would feel nice under my knife bitch, I'm watching you;"

　　Oh god! 

　　At the same time I heard a noise, it was coming from the  window 

　　I clasped my hand over my mouth to stiffle back a whimper as I stared at the window in fear,  I had shut it firmly closed,  but that hasn't stopped him before 

　　He always could manage to open it and get me. 

　　I prayed silently... 

　　Prayed that he would just leave... 

　　Why was all these  happening to me?  I've been a good girl as long as I could remember... 

　　I've never hurt anyone in my entire life, at least not intentionally.. So why me? 

　　Why couldn't I be like every other girls of my age? 

　　Tears escaped my eyes as I clutched the pillow tightly  like it would protect me.. 

　　From him. 

　　Perhaps if I don't make a sound and just pretend to be asleep he would leave...

　　I curled around myself tightly, shutting  my eyes closed.

　　I felt the cool breeze against my skin but still didn't open my eyes... 

　　I didn't need to. 

　　I knew it was him,  all my nerves were in high alert... totally aware of his very presence .

　　Each breath got difficult as I heard him approach me,...i could feel his dark burning gaze on me, he sat besides me on the bed,  my lips trembled violently as his fingers graze my cheeks...

　　He wiped at my tears slowly 

　　"I know you're awake,open your eyes now and look at me " he whispered the command slowly 

　　My eyes fluttered open to meet his stormy green ones , I shuddered at the burning intensity I saw there 

　　"Are you going to kill me? ...why are you doing this to m..me? " I whispered scooting far away from him to the very edge of the bed.. 

　　His gaze narrowed to slit as if in disapproval 

　　"What makes you fucking think I would want to kill you? "

　　"you sent me t..those text me..messages .. that d..doll...why d..do you want to kill me" I sobbed, fresh tears escaping my eyes 

　　He clasped my shoulders none too gently 

　　"what the fuck are you talking about? "

　　I flinched  at his sharp tone

　　"you k.. know exactly what I'm talking about! "

　　The text,  the threats... I know it's all from him

　　"No I fucking don't, and you have just three seconds to explain everything to me "

　　I blinked back in confusion,  he hadn't sent those texts? 

　　Then who did if not him? 

　　"I'm fucking asking you something!" he all but growled out

　　"it's p..probably n..nothing " I whispered still taking in the sudden revelation that it wasn't him 

　　A low dangerous sound escaped rumbled from his throat 

　　"I'm warning you for the last time! Where are the messages! "
