Chapter 251 – Side – Luke And Alora Part 2
"Wait! What? Are you crazy?" I snatched my hand away from him and crossed my arms. I don't know how I managed to composed myself. With my head up high, I asked him.
"Oh I thought you knew since you insisted that I tell you now. Anyway, you heard right, after college, we'll get married so from today onwards, you are my fiance." Luke said it without any hesitation. It seems to that this is just a joke to him.
"Is it amusing to you to make fun of other people? I don't know what you're talking about and even if its true, I don't want to be your fiance. I hate you and all those people behind this!" I yelled at him so everyone who's watching us can hear it. I turned around and walked away. I don't want to hear any word from Luke. I run inside the school and went straight to the rooftop. I'm annoyed. No, I'm mad at him. It doesn't seem that he's joking and I'm mad at my parents for not consulting first. I want to scream but my voice won't co out. I can't breathe! Oh no! It's happening again.
"Alora! Listen to ! Can we talk about this first?" I didn't notice he followed here. I turned around and looked at him. He looks worried? I can't tell. My chest hurts and I can't seem to focus. My vision is getting blurry.
"Luke, can we – can we talk so other ti? I, I need so air. My chest its.." Luke didn't care and continued talking while crossing a few steps closer to . I raised my left hand to stop him from getting closer. My right hand is in my chest. I noticed the ring on my finger when I raised my left hand. I didn't realize that I wasn't able to remove it. Again, my chest hurts The ring seems another prison to and I will never escape from it. Before I knew it, I'm already crying. A silent cry. My chest hurts because of all the emotions that I cannot put into words. I can't breathe. I held my chest tighter as the pain becos stronger.
"Alora, I want to make it clear that I didn't plan to tell it to you in front of so many people but you insisted. I want to seriously talk to you about it alone. But…" Luke stopped when he noticed that I am holding my chest and suddenly dropped my knees on the ground. I was having cold sweat and my chest seems very tight.
"Alora! What's wrong? What's happening?" Luke crossed the space between us and got down to his knees as he grabbed my shoulders.
"I, I can't breathe! It's happening again! Save ! Save !" I don't want him to see like this. I don't want anyone to see this side of . A helpless child. Who would have thought that Alora Smith, the one they call the Ice Princess, has this vulnerable side? But right now, I can't focus on getting back on my feet, I needed soone to help and Luke just happened to be there.
"Alora, I'm here. Breathe baby, co on! You can do this." Luke's soft voice is soothing to my ear as he caress my back, I felt safe. No! It can't be. No one can save . No one can understand because no one cares. My heart started pounding and again my chest beca more painful. My breathing beca more frequent and I can't even speak. Luke grabbed my face and run his fingers in my cheeks and then my lower lip.
"Alora, please co back to ." Luke whispered softly before putting his lips into mine. Luke's lips tastes sweet like honey. He slowly moved his lips and I didn't realize that I already closed my eyes giving him a signal that I didn't resist. Luke put his right arms around my waist as he kisses softly and passionately. I held my chest again but the pain wasn't there anymore. What's this feeling? Excitent? No, it can't be. This is my first kiss so the feeling is new to . When Luke released my lips, he still seems worried. I can see his face clearly now and my breathing went back to normal.
"Alora, are you okay now? What happened?"Luke asked with a worried face. I'm not sure if what I'm seeing this side of him is true or it's just a way of him to get to .
"It's a panic attack. I've had it since primary school. It's no big deal. Thank you for helping . So can you let go of now?" I realized he's still holding and his face is very close. I know I'm blushing but I can't show this guy that I'm affected by his kiss. Luke released and helped stand up.
"I don't think its not a big deal, Alora. What if I didn't chase you? What if I didn't ca here? What will happen to you? Let's go see the school doctor." Luke was about to grab my hand again but I was fast enough to avoid it.
"No! I don't want to see any doctor. I don't want anyone to know about this. So can you just keep quiet about this? If you didn't push my limits, it will not happen in the first place. I told you I don't want to talk to you and needed so air but you insisted. And besides, if you didn't see , I will just pass out and will wake up like nothing happened." I hated explaining myself to him but I felt like he needed an answer. And I know Luke will not stop until he get what he needs. I looked at his face and I was shocked. His eyes seems sad. Why? Is he having pity on ?
"Don't look at like that. Don't pity . The last thing I want from you is pity. Just go to class Luke and leave alone." I continued. Luke sighed.
"Alora, I'm your fiance now. Everything that will happen to you is now my business. I can't just ignore it. I don't want to force you to talk about what happened earlier, I won't force you to go see the doctor and I won't tell anyone about this. But in one condition.
I frowned and looked directly to his eyes. I can see that his determined about this and won't stop until I say yes. "Okay, what is it?" I said.
Luke smiled showing his pearly white teeth. Yes, he's hotter when he's smiling. Wait. What am I thinking right now? This is not the right ti for this.
"Attend our engagent tonight and accept as your fiance."
LUKE POV (BEFORE THE PROPOSAL)
It's the first day of senior high school so I woke up and prepared early. I was chosen to be the speaker for the opening assembly. I enjoyed being around with people. When I was little, my father will always bring to parties, events and etings. I am an only child and the only heir to the Wilson Empire. Our family is the richest clan in the country and the second richest in the US and Europe.
I am Luke Wilson. I am 17 years old and currently studying at Golden Oak School for the Elite as a senior high school. At my age, I already achieved so many things. I was a genius in computer and technology at the age of 10 and was awarded as the youngest computer science genius. I have created a computer anti-virus called Angel at the age of 12. The success of Angel gave an opportunity to build my own company, A.E Technology. I wanted to stand on my own and make my na known not just the son of my parents, not just so rich kid who depends on their father's money. In the outside, I maybe an arrogant jerk to other people but I always take things seriously.
"Young master, your father is waiting for you in his study." It'a Dean, our new butler. He's at his late 40's and just started working last week. The old butler already retired at the age of 65.
I looked at my rolex watch and frowned. "Is it important? I need to be in school before 8."
"I'm just here to relay the ssage. I don't know the details, sir." I nod and just went directly to my father's office. I knocked twice before entering. When I went inside, I was surprised to see Mr. Smith talking with my father.
"Good morning father. Good morning Mr. Smith, it's nice to see you again. I'm sorry to interrupt but I can co back later after your eting, father." I was about to leave when Mr.Smith said "No. You can stay. We are actually talking about you. I am happy to et you again, Luke". He reached his hand to mine and I reached back.
"Thank you sir." I can't understand what's happening and why are they talking about . I waited for one of them to talk.
"Let's go straight to the point. Luke, son, after you graduate from college, you will get married." Father said in a clear and firm tone.. But why? I don't plan to get married after college, I want to go around the world to introduce my company and make it an empire myself.
