Chapter 76: Nowhere To Run To
Jules’ pov
Despite how much I pulled on the doorknob while screaming desperately, it didn’t budge. My heart was racing fast and my fingers were trembling. The fear I was experiencing was so crippling, it was making my legs wobble but I refused to give up trying.
"Well, at this point, I don’t think there’s any point in still keeping this pretense up, don’t you think so?" The sound of the principal speaking made the scream I was about to let scream to get stuck in my throat.
I jostled the door knob and let out another scream right before he continued. "Also, can you stop screaming? Hasn’t it dawned on you that it’s completely pointless?" He demanded and my lips wobbled as I blinked at the door, desperately willing for it to magically open.
But it didn’t.
I slowly turned around, throat constricting as my gaze settled on the principal and Kim once again. Kim was standing beside the table, eyes wide and lips parted, while the principal had a sneer on his face, an expression which made me shudder with fright as I pressed my back against the door, lips wobbling once again as I tried to get past the lump in my throat.
"What do you want with me?" I demanded frantically, voice shrill and filled with clear panic.
The principal scoffed with a shake of his head and then he walked around the table to pull out one of the lush chairs. Once seated, he pointed a finger at me.
"You know, come to think of it. It makes so much sense that you and Blaze are fated mates because he has never protected anyone before until you." He revealed as he looked me up and down, a flat look plastered over his face and my heartbeat accelerated even more.
This man was bringing Blaze up once again, for reasons unknown to me. How the hell did he even know that Blaze and I are fated mates?
From the corner of my eyes, I noticed Kim beginning to pace around, a frantic look plastered over his face.
