MAYBE I'M VIOLENT THAT'S MY TRUE NATURE.

HEATHER POV.

The sound of the alarm went off disrupting my peaceful slumber. I banged the alarm burying my head underneath my pillow it was just at that moment I realised Drake had left and the scene from earlier replayed in my mind. Embarrassment washed over me and I knew that I was blushing non stop I laid back down on the bed inhaling his scent.

I smiled sheepishly tucking my hair behind my ear. "Umm....I wonder how was he able to get past marcus? That's nothing to be bothered about Heather you should get prepared for lectures. I smiled removing the bedsheets from the bed before shoving it atop the giant wardrobe. "I'm going to make sure I avoid Drake this morning because I don't think I'm going to survive seeing him after this incident.

I walked into the bathroom hastily preparing for school. My hair was packed into a tight bun as usual and I was dressed in a tennis skirt, a hoodies, an elephant skin boot and a pink beanie. The aura of confidence I exuded was extraordinary and I knew no girl could compete with me and I wasn't going to give them a reason to.

"Yeah Heather you look breathe taking anyone would get lost looking at you and you know that. I said assuring myself before walking out of the room.

I was about heading to the dinning room when I heard a loud conversation coming from the detached living room. The cacophony of the conversation hung in the atmosphere making curious about what was going on at home. When I got to the living room Jules and kyle were playing a video game.

I smiled widely dropping my back pack on the floor before letting out a loud shriek. I couldn't contain my excitement and as he opened his arm I rushed into his embrace wrapping my arm around him. "Jules you're here like I've missed the hell outta you ! I exclaimed pulling away from the hug and he smiled caressing my cheeks. "Kyle you're all grown up I've missed you, how's Mia and Gaia?

He smiled warmly planting a soft kiss in my forehead. "Me too they couldn't make it because we're both expecting to be dads soon but your parents asked us to come watch over you. He informed putting his console aside. "Jules here couldn't stop pestering me and so we took the midnight flight. Dada and here we are.

I scowled rolling my eyes at him before heading towards the dinning room. "Yeah you shouldn't have bothered coming because y'all treat me like some helpless kid without considering my feelings. I complained wrapping the napkin around my neck. "It's suffocating and I'm not sitting for it.

Jules smiled pulling a seat beside me before taking his seat. "Don't be sad I ain't here to keep an eye on you I'm willing to do anything for my little cousin. He waves playfully before pinching my cheek. "Now stop complaining and eat you've got classes to attend then maybe later in the evening we'll get together at Wally's place okay.

"Okay but won't your fiancée be sad like you're baby sitting me all over again? I asked tucking a hair strand behind my ear.

"Silly girl you worry too much they won't be. Gaia told me to be here for you and make up for lost times and Kyle said Mia's totally fine with it since it's going to be a couple of weeks and we're back at LA. Jules reassured taking a sip of the orange juice. "Eat up already you're gawking and women shouldn't gawk.

"Bullshit! Say's the guy who almost gouged his eyes out. He remarked tossing his napkin on Jule's face. "We've got to take her to school and it's just the three of us Marcus and his team aren't involved.

My eyes widened delightfully and I couldn't hold back my cheerfulness although I felt caged and helpless hanging out with my cousins wasn't a bad idea. "Okay cool I'd love to hangout at Wally's place. I smiled awkwardly before munching on the large sandwich in my plate.

DRAKE'S POV(AT THE AIRPORT).

The private plane owned by the Russell's had just left and it was time for me to do the same. Aaron signaled the guards to run a quick surveillance on the area for any spies implanted by the Russell's or anyone else while I waited in the car. When it was all over Aaron walked to the car he knocks on the driver's window signalling it was time for him to leave. The driver did as he was told and Aaron enters the car without saying a word he began driving off and the others followed suit.

The entire ride was silent and no one uttered a word but it was obvious Aaron wanted to say something because he kept checking the rear mirror to know if I was okay and I pretended not to be know about it.

"What's on your mind Aaron you've been staring? I pointed out pulling my necktie off. "If not your eyes should be on the road or you'll have us both killed.

Aaron nods facing the road but tilts his head sideways before letting out a sigh of relief. "Boss do you think Sylvester Russell can be trusted or will he listen to your instructions? He asked desperately for answers. "You know the Japanese ninja federation are nothing but cunning rascals who are going to stop at nothing to achieve what they want so how are we going to stop them.

A faint smiled played on my lips and I took out my silence pistol carefully studying the exterior of the gun before bringing it to my throat. "Now don't be impatient Aaron let's watch the good play unfold one after the other. I've got my ways and the Kyoto federation won't know what hit them. I assured pulling the trigger and a loud bang was heard as the bullet pierced the windshield. "The Russell family are already in check from the moment they pledged their loyalty to me but it's for the best that you mobilize the best secret agents to keep an eye on his every move.

"Yes master I'll do just that but how could you trust the Russell to keep their words? He inquired still focusing on the road. "What if he misuse the trust you have in him and after this incident he turns his back on you? I heard he's an old cunning fox and his wife though she looks innocent on the inside she's a brewing poison she once helped her husband overthrow her father.

EARLIER (FLASH BACK)

"Mr Xavier we're grateful for your help but how do you suggest we trap the enemy? Mr Russell inquired anticipating a clear and fast response.

"Mrs Russell please can you leave us for a bit? I asked politely. "There are matters that are to be discussed when your presence aren't needed.

Mrs Russell stared at her husband confused and speechless with her eyes pleading to stay but without a word he turned her down leaving her in shock. She strides out of the room filled with rage and repressed anger.

"We've got to move with extreme caution and that means first you should keep things to yourselves. I instructed glaring at him menacingly. "This means that we're going to have them take the bait, Russell.

He stood up angrily cursing in Russian under his breathe, "who's taking the bait?! The itadori clan will surely fall if we combine forces to destroy them but we need to get rid of the termites from within and also those pesky ninja mercenary for harming my son.

I nodded in satisfaction knowing that we were in the same line. "Yes that's the reason why you're going to give them what they want and that is the news that you were killed by the mercenary now you're to leave the family for some months long enough to make the termites come out creeping. I smirked strutting to the biggest window in my dinning room enabling me to see the skyline and extends of the entire mansion. "No one's to know about your whereabouts and that applies to Mrs Russell.

His eyes widened in horror. "What I can't do that to my wife she oughta to know do you want her to commit suicide?! He barked stomping his hand in the dinning table.

I turned slightly facing his uneased expression. "Why did you think I sent her out Sylvester Russell? I inquired throwing a fork in a deadly precision to which he narrowly dodged. "I sent her away because that's the only way your secret is safe and you can protect her. Look at your disoriented stage you could have been killed by a fork because you were too emotional to understand your surroundings.

"I can't let her be the death of me so I'm entrusting her safety to you Mr Xavier she's the only person that gets me going and my only strength. The only reason I keep going on in this fucking world, the first and only light that pierced through my darkness. He replied in a low but cold tone. "It's not a weakness or an emotional wreckage but it's a sense of honour, protection and belonging and I hope you find it someday.

I couldn't hold back the humour building inside me and instantly I laughed out loud but he sat down unfazed by my display. "That's such a wonderful poetry Mr Russell but emotions break men and don't even bother fixing the wreckage. I lectured striding towards him before grabbing him fiercely around his collar. "You will do as I say or else the deal is off Russell and you will tell no one of our cooperation if you want to survive to see the next day. You can only tell someone after the itadori are extinct.

His pupils dilated in panic revealing a deeper silver shade filled with anxiety,anger and determination. "Yes I understand but please ensure their safety.

"Sure. I promised letting go of his rumpled collar.

FLASH BACK ENDS(PRESENTLY)

"Do you think I'm a fool Aaron?! I don't trust easily and certainly not the Russian couple. There's a saying keep your friends close and your enemy closer but I'd say keep your friends close and your partners closer. I replied putting the gun back into the silver briefcase I had brought it from. "The hotels are just minor issues to cover up for what I'm about to do in Russia and the Russell's are going to lead me straight to the Ivanovich because that's who they're working for and your boss were setup by them.

"What?! You're really that insightful boss. Aaron compliments excitedly as he pulls to the roadside abruptly stopping the car. "The Ivanovich wouldn't know what hit them and they'll think you're business partners with the Russell but it's to dominate their world and take revenge on them.

"Easy there boy don't get too ahead of yourself it's a secret between you and I and I'd like you to take it to the grave. I instructed looking outside the window. "In the future Aaron don't stop the car unless I say you should.

"Yes master I'm sorry I got too flustered by the news. He admits and resumes driving. "Would you like togo home or to the university?

I frowned staring blankly at the watch in my hand before nodding in disapproval. "Any leads on Nicolas Lancaster and his brats?

"No master it's just that the Moore family met with the Lancaster group for a collaboration on the release of the galaxy air pods. He informs staring at the rear mirror before looking away. "Phineas has been dealt with as you ordered and he won't be disturbing miss Heather ever again. The guards are scared and Dr Roberts has informed that you continue taking your medication and you should stop by often so you could take your medical report personally.

"Yeah that's nothing important at all I've heard enough of this nonsense. I smirked scrolling through my phone before pausing to view Heather's page. "She looks cute, doesn't she?

"Who is she master is it miss Heather? Aaron asked curiously.

I gave him an angry and disgusted look scrolling past her picture before logging out. "Cancel all my appointments for this week at the company because I'll be spending more time with Heather also don't come looking for me when I'm next to Heather. I instructed stuffing my phone inside my suit. "If I see you or any bodyguard next to her I'll shoot you myself. Keep an eye on Nicolas because he's a scheming old fox and also the Moore family should be kept in check.

The rest of the ride was as silent as usual with none of us uttering a word. The thrill of being next to Heather ate me up like termites eating up a log and I didn't even know when I became this possessive towards her but one thing I knew for sure was there was no way I was letting myself or anyone hurt her again.

AT THE UNIVERSITY (2:49 PM)

The hall way was unusually empty like someone had swept everyone out but Indistinct chatters were could be heard down the hallway and I decided to turn away as I would be having classes in five minutes but then in heard the students chanting maniacally for some female students to engage in a combat session.

"Heather don't think I'll turn a blind eye if you keep seducing my fiancée. Drake's mine and he would only belong to me and none other. A female voice rang in the air carrying a weight of compressed malice and anger and it was obvious that it was none other than that of Catherine.

My heart thumped dangerously in my chest I tightened my fist vowing to destroy anyone who dares to lay their hands on Heather. "No one can mess with her on my watch. I muttered running towards the chaos. "Step aside! Who dares to spread scandalous rumours about Heather I can see you're tired of breathing oxygen.

Heather looks at me with disgust laced on her face she quickly let's go of the fistful of Catherine's hair in her hand. "Drake i don't want any embarrassment but I'd prefer you keep your fiancée on a leash instead of letting her parading her arrogance everywhere. She lectures bumping into my shoulder as she walks past me.

Catherine stood up from the ground totally disoriented and confused. She takes her disheveled hair before acting pretentiously as she grabs my hand . "Drake she pushed me down and came up to me calling me all sorts of names. She is jealous that I'm your fiancée and she's not looks at her are you letting her off? She cried angrily wiping her mascara filled tears trailing down her cheeks.

"Get off me Catherine when did we ever agree on the engagement? I asked pushing her aside before grabbing her neck tightly. "I'll only say it this once so listen carefully if I see you close to Heather I'll strangle you with my bare hands and you don't want to mess with me so run along slut!

She grabs my hand trying to get it off her throat but I only made it tighter making her gasp for air when I pushed her into the floor. There were whispers and murmurs everywhere but I didn't care about any of those as far as I had already said what I wanted.

"Drake you can't do this to me I gave up Elliot to be with you and here you are pushing me away for some random low life you barely even know? She inquired latching unto my foot.

"I never asked you to give up on Elliot you did and I'm not interested in low lives like you who look down on others. I replied pushing her to the ground before striding off.

I ran as fast as I could just to ensure that I could meet Heather and explain things but seeing her smiling at MJ, the senior from the third year who was previously my friend while I was still Jake, stirred a chord in me that I had never felt before and without thinking I walked over to Heather pulling her over wrapping my hands tightly around her tiny waist.

I shot MJ a menacing look making him feel uncomfortable under my piercing gaze and with the proceeding standoff for who will emerge victorious, the tension in the room became exceedingly cold and ferocious.

"Get your fuckin grin where they should be Micheal Jenkins or else head might roll all over the place with someone wriggling in the pool of his own blood. I said in a cold and menacing tone.

He stood in place almost petrified but he manages to remain flaccid and platonic. "Drake Xavier it's good to see you again right after the death of your cousin you went missing. He mocked meeting my gaze. "I'm just inviting someone to the freshmen feat bonfire party but I never knew I was hitting on your bitch.

The veins under my skin were now visible as rage continues to consume me whole and with him calling her a bitch that did the trick and without saying a word I lunged at him kicking and punching him until his nose broke. "Keep your fuckin invitation to your fuckin self mate! Heather's mine and mine alone now go tell your homies the same and stop parading yourself around her. I barked letting his limp body slip from my bloody hand.

I turned to meet the same disgusted look but this time tears were streaming down her eyes and as I reached out to her trembling body she gave me a thunderous slap that shattered my insanity.

She blinked pushing me away. "Get away from me Drake you're a monster! He was just inviting me and nothing else. She screamed sobbing profusely. "Who made you my boyfriend huh you're choosing for me and that I deeply hate about people.

"I'm sorry Heather I can't think straight when you're around me maybe that's my real nature and it's violence. I admitted hugging her tightly before wiping her tears with the back off my palm. "I'm going to leave if you feel that way about me but I won't stop getting violent if anything happens to you.

Heather's eyes widened and those blue eyes of her glittered like gemstone filled with emotions and confusion but she turned away From me before storming off.

I looked behind me and I noticed MJ was nowhere to be seen and it ached me because he had made Heather cry and it wasn't going to sit easy like it always did back in the past. "That sleazy piece of shit you can only blame yourself for what's coming!

I brought my phone out of my breast pocket dialing Aaron's number on it and instantly he answered. "Aaron I want you to pay the Jenkins family a visit and I want it to be slow, swift and brutal make it a memorable visit for him. I smiled wickedly before ending the call.

The silence in the air permeated into my ear and I could hear literally everything in the room but the feeling of having MJ experience this pain was a tip of the iceberg.
