Hollywood Zenith

" Bella warned me immediately when he approached me but I was very different at that time."

" Who?"

" He was the senior at my high school. He was very popular with the girls." Samuel didn't say anything because he could feel her body shaking just remembering his face.

" He was tall, charming and somewhat handsome but in hindsight, I think I only had crush on him because all my friend would constantly talk about him in school. It's like the reason for him being attractive was because everyone else wanted him."

" I didn't know at that time but he came from a wealthy family too. Normally people of his stature never enrolled in that school but for some reason he was there but one wouldn't be able to call him rich looking at his clothes. He acted extremely modest and presented himself as a gentleman but it was all a facade."

She didn't realize that she was basically signing his death warrant because Samuel knew this guy must had done something heinous to her to make her this disoriented just reminiscing about it.

She painfully began to tell him the details. It was the usual, she was young and didn't know much about relationships at that time and when the young man took notice of her she began to fall for him.

It was understandable because he was already popular most of the girls would find it hard to deny his advances especially when he was coming on to her this strong.

It started when Kate caught his eye at the library, he told her what attracted him to her was her sweet personality and the confident way she carried herself around. The latter part might be true but she didn't have such personality but for him she began to act more and more like what he wanted.

Bella repeatedly warned her but Kate's eyes were blinded by love. It was first time in her life that someone tried to show genuine interest in her. It could be because she never really got a chance to enjoy her childhood and severely lacked attention growing up, he easily was able to convince that he was head over heels for her.

It heavily strained Bella and her relationship as she began hanging out with his group more often. Despite her being there, he never showed her love openly always throwing different excuses and promising to come clean about their relationship.

Kate believed him because she knew he had higher social standing than most of the people. He would often say that she could be in danger if his parents found out about it. He was eventually going to tell them but he only needed some time to prepare.

It went on for couple of months, he tried to get in her pants during those months but most Kate gave him were couple of kisses. It was hard for her because it was her first time and she needed her heart to be in the right place before they could elevate their relationship.

Seeing that she was not willing to give it up easy, he began to invite her to his parties that he used to throw every weekend. It was wild, a bunch of teenagers pumped up on hormones going crazy. She felt left out the first time so Bella accompanied her next time only to see the debauchery happening right in front of her eyes. 

Kate might not see it, but Bella could tell most of them were on drugs or completely drunk out of their mind. She couldn't believe a girl like Kate would be in this place but unfortunately Kate was too far gone to see the true colors of the snake slowly wrapping itself around her!

Everything happened too quickly, one time when Bella was late to go with Kate the man personally picked her up from her home. He acted like normal being his charming self and offered her drinks. By this time, he had gained her trust to at least let her guard down around him.

Within few minutes, Kate was out cold inside his car as he headed straight to his house with a wicked smile on his face. He had tried everything, from love bombing to showing her with gifts but this girl never seemed to get the clue of what he desired!

He never thought he would desire any girl when he first enrolled in this dump but some reason Kate immediately caught his eye. How could she not? With her impressive figure and pretty face she turned head wherever she went on top of that she was a ginger!

He was still observing from far when one of his henchmen revealed that she was never seen with any boy since she arrived here. Could it be that it was an untouched flower? He immediately became excited about the prospect!

Other than that, there was only a hot tempered brunette following her around acting as a shield repelling no matter who approached her. She was not half bad herself but too bad she was too cautious of him from the start.

He began thinking about how he was going to play with her body all night long!

...

Samuel who listened up to this point already felt his blood boiling. Why did these rich brats always had to be like this? He was ready to add one more name to his list but felt that Kate began shaking even greatly.

" Did he?" He feared the worse but she shook her head sideways.

" I feel cold all of a sudden?" She said. 

" Shit!" He knew what the problem was, his aura was leaking heavily. He immediately calmed himself down. It was a miracle Kate was not scared of him, normally people would be shaking in their boots. It also happened with Liliana when he visited the Reyes residence but it was not the time to think about it.

" There. What happened then?" He covered her up with the blanket, taking her further closer to him to keep her body warm. She smiled for a second because of his attentiveness but immediately realized that she had to tell him about her nightmares.
