Nate’s POV
I woke up feeling extremely unhappy, sex with Isabella was amazing – it always is, it’s just never been enough to take the pain away. Fuck, it sucks to be me… Hated by my mother just because she never wanted me – like it was my fault she and my father slept together. The memories of her unkind words to me is something that I have been unable to get out of my mind no matter what I do but I still wish I could forget.
I got up and as always, went to have my bath. Immediately after I finished bathing and dried myself, I heard footsteps again. Who the hell is it? I wondered.
” Nate, honey!” Isabella called and I got really pissed. Why is she here, shouldn’t she be with Rex? Does she want to sabotage my plan?
” Hi!” She said as she entered my room, dressed in the school’s uniform but not with the jacket, that’s how things are in Oakwood high.
” What the fuck are you doing here?” I growled and she gulped.
” It seems I’ll have to prevent the bodyguards from letting you in,” I said as my glare on her intensified.
” I – I just thought that I umm… You know, accompany you to school today”
” It seems you’ve forgotten that you have a boyfriend, Isabella” I pointed out and she sighed as she said, ” I know, I just wanted to see you. You -”
” You can’t do that anymore, I don’t want you ruining my plans,” I said turning away because I didn’t want her to see how mad I was getting.
” Fine, I’m sorry” she said and I turned around, my temper already calmed by her genuine apology. Even though I knew I was using her, it was definitely a good thing that she was one of the few people who’s apology could calm me down, at least that’s something she must be happy about.
As I looked at her from head to toe, scanning her long, brown hair, her Amber eyes, her thin pink lips, and perfect body, one question popped into my head – ” Why can’t you love her, the way she loves you? Why don’t you love her at all?”, then I shook my head and answered myself – ” You’re not like everyone else Nate, you’re fucked up and you know it”
” It’s okay, just don’t do that again. You can come over when you’re certain no one will know. Okay?” I eventually said and she heaved a sigh of relief.
” Okay,” she said smiling a little and I kissed her. I didn’t exactly enjoy it but, I just thought I should. She was a huge part of my plan succeeding so I need to keep her on my side, no matter what it’ll take.
” So no jackets today huh?” I asked as I walked over to the extravagant part of my room stocked with clothes that my mother had specially created for me. That is probably the only thing she’s dedicated to doing. She said she doesn’t want me embarrassing her in public.
” Yep, as always on Tuesdays. Gosh, I can’t wait for Wednesday so I can wear a gown or some other sexy clothes”
” So your parents didn’t replace your wardrobe with ugly clothes as punishment?” I asked and she chuckled and said, ” They wouldn’t dare!”
” They’re slacking, I totally would’ve done it, you’d be coming to school in rags” I said and she laughed.
” The guy wasn’t THAT old”
” Tell yourself whatever,” I said coming out of the closet-room.
She seemed a little dazed as I put on my clothes, obviously checking me out. I haven’t quite reached my goal of having a build as crazy as Chris Hemsworth but, I still had abs that would make a woman shiver.
I smirked as I got dressed quickly and combed my hair, making sure it was perfectly slicked back, then I held my already knotted tie and turned around to find Isabella’s eyes still on me and chuckled.
” You can quit undressing with your eyes, it’s hopeless now”
” Ugh!” She groaned in frustration as she got up and wore her handbag.
” Have you eaten yet?” She asked me suddenly.
” Nah, let’s go have breakfast” I said, grabbing my bag as I opened my door and left the room.
” No thanks, I’ve eaten.” She said following me.
” If you call your meal of carrots and grass food – okay cool” I teased, knowing exactly how she’d react.
” You’re such a vegan hater!” She spat at me with so much disdain in her voice that one would think she actually hates me.
” I’m not, just can’t eat grass and tell myself it’s healthy” I said with a smirk and she just muttered an incomprehensible word.
” You’re highly annoying Nate… Animal murderer” she eventually said.
” Whatever,” I said as I reached the dining room.
” Master McClain! Good morning” chef Chu said to me and I flashed him a smile, the man could cook so fucking well and I considered him my OG for that.
” Sup Chu, how are you doing?”
” I’m great sir”
” What’s for breakfast?”
” Waffles sir,” he said with a smile, knowing what I would ask next he added, ” and I’ll add some chicken”
” Oh thank you”
” Disgusting” Isabella scoffed, while I just rolled my eyes and rubbed my hands as chef Chu placed my food on the table, ready to devour it but as I took a bite and savored the taste, I suddenly lost my appetite seeing her enter with the businessman who owns the house we are living in.
They had married three years ago, not out of love of course, but because my mother was going through some financial issues, they decided to marry and both run their estate business together.
Simply put, he’s a dunce with money who doesn’t know how to use it and she’s a genius with no money who can run his company for him.
” Ah, Nate my boy. What’s up?” He said to me, since I had absolutely nothing against him, I gave him a thumbs-up as I chewed my food and he laughed. The dude was free-spirited, unlike my stiff mother.
” I see your whore is here with you,” she said as she looked at Isabella with so much disdain.
” She’s not a whore, speaking about whores, I think you could give any future whores tips on how to hit the jackpot as you did”
Mr. Roswell cringed as she walked towards me and gave me my ” dose of early morning slaps”.
I clenched my teeth in fury as I glared at her and stood up from my chair, looking over her small stature.
” Bella, let’s fucking get out of this shit hole” I said and stormed out of the house.
As I entered my car and tried to insert the keys so I could drive my hands started shaking, I reached in my pocket for my pills but my hands kept shaking.
Luckily for me, Isabella came.
” Here,” she said as she reached into my pockets, poured a pill in my mouth as well as water to down it.
” It’s gonna be fine,” she said rubbing my back but I shook my head because I knew it wouldn’t.
