Carnivals: Claimed By The Deranged Alpha Prince [BL]-Chapter 37: Good Boy

My mouth opened and closed once again as he inched even closer to me. His scent was so thick right now, filling up my entire lungs as he backed me into the nearest wall.

For a fleeting moment, my mind went back to my initiation night, whereby I had been so sure that I smelled this scent. But, I couldn’t dwell on that thought for long before his fingers were tilting my head upwards till I had no choice but to stare right into his eyes.

I gulped emptily while my heart raced super fast. I began to curse my luck internally, because if I had listened to Elio and waited for him to finish so we could exit the school together, then I wasn’t sure if I’d be in this situation right now.

I’ve been avoiding Blaze ever since our last encounter in the bathroom which had left me feeling extremely traumatized. Especially after the conversation I had with Taylor and Josh that evening and they had explained what it means for Blaze to leave his scent on me like he had done.

"So unreal." His voice was gravelly low as he spoke, eyes focused on my face and a shiver slid down my spine as his cold fingers tilted my jaw upwards even more.

I gripped the hem of my shirt with my hands because I had no idea of what to do with them.

What I wanted to do right now, was to tear out of Blaze’s grip and run in the opposite direction right now. But somehow, I felt rooted to the spot, like he was pinning me in place with an invisible hold.

His hold on my chin was extremely light, he wasn’t even using more than two fingers, yet it felt like he had me caged with rods.

My heart was pounding hard against my ribs and in that moment, the image of him strangling that student minutes ago flashed at the back of my mind and I found myself stuttering even more.

Blaze was quiet, the silence stretched out between us. He continued to stare down at me, eyes sliding over every spot of my face.

I swallowed emptily, and my heartbeat accelerated even more as I watched as he lowered his head towards mine. By the time his face stopped inches away from mine, I was certain I had stopped breathing.

I blinked at him wide eyed, an embarrassing whisper spilling past my lips when his nose glided lightly over my cheek to trail down my chin and the line of my jaw.

"You smell so scared." He husked out and i squealed, grip tightening in my shirt as I tried to control my trembling limbs.

When he pulled away a little to gift me a psychotic grin, I almost crumbled into an unconscious mess from fright and shock, because I remember Taylor telling me that he absolutely doesn’t smile, and that whenever he does, it means nothing but bad news.

"I’m so tempted to eat you up right now, because you smell so fucking scared. It’s the hottest thing ever." He continued, voice low and filled with so much vibrations that made another shiver course down my spine as goosebumps gathered on my skin.

This is the first time that I’d listen to him say more than five words at once. It made me wonder what it is that I’ve done to attract his attention and wrath out of anyone else’s in this entire cursed school.

"P- please." I ended up whispering, flinching and trying to disappear into the hard wall behind my back as soon as his nose followed the line of my jaw to nuzzle my ear.

"Relax, bunny. I’m not gonna eat you just yet, hm?" He crooned, dissolving into laughter as soon as he noticed the terror stricken look on my face.

He was gonna eat me later?

Oh, I’m completely doomed.

Completely and utterly doomed.

From the looks of things, he’s clearly having so much fun with me right now, like I was a food he was toying with before he’d finally get bored and consume it with a single bite.

He lifted his other hand and as soon as I noticed the blood on his knuckles, I grew paled at once, remembering that it was the blood of the student which he had been strangling before I arrived.

He dangled the hand in my face. "Does this scare you, bun?"

I frantically nodded my head while my heart felt like it would burst out of my throat.

Clearly pleased with my answer, he leveled me with a grin before leaning closer to me, grip tightening around my chin a little.

"Good boy." He murmured and my eyes widened even more, heart pounding erratically. My stomach knotted and tightened on itself even more.

When he finally stepped away from me, my legs wobbled and I slid down the wall behind me, blinking up at him and silently praying he’d finally leave me alone.

"Be good, pup." He husked out, then he was walking down the hallway without a backward glance.

I remained frozen in the same spot while wondering what it was that I had gotten myself into.

~~~

On getting home that night, I was thankful for not running into anyone I know, and for coming to an empty dorm, because I smelt so much of Blaze.

That monster had scent marked me.

Again.

His scent was stronger on me this time, like it sunk into my skin and wouldn’t be leaving anytime soon.

Despite how much I scrubbed myself that night, his scent refused to leave my body.

With a frustrated sigh, I fell into bed that night and ended up dreaming of my father, of that particular place where he had been informing me that I’d be getting married soon.

When I woke up, it was with a jolt, and I burst into tears almost immediately.

I’d have skipped school but I was already falling behind, which was why I had no choice but to show up.

The first thing Taylor said to be, was that I smelled so much of Blaze, and that instantly reminded me of the fact that Blaze had marked me the previous night.

For reasons completely unknown to me.

The entire day went by in a blur and I tried to avoid moving too close to anyone so they wouldn’t catch Blaze’s scent on me, but I doubt if that made any difference.

By the end of the day, we were informed that we’d be going on a class trip in three days.
