Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

"What do you-" My words halted upon seeing the woman with her face on the ground, completely out of balance.

I couldn't help but stifle a laugh. That was harsh! He could have just pushed her to the side, but why did he have to shove her off?

"Hey," Ash suddenly called, grabbing my chin as he turned my face to him. "Focus on me."

My face reddened for a moment, but as soon as I snapped to my senses, I quickly removed his hand, and he laughed at what I did. "I won't report you to the council, so you don't need to worry about it." "But why won't you report it? You hate bad guys," he answered, placing his hands on the side of my head, preventing me from escaping. "Then punish the bad guy in front of you, Sapphire."

I immediately looked on the other side, diverting my gaze as my heart couldn't take it, but again, he held my chin, making me look at him.

"Punish me," Ash said again, snapping me back to reality.

"I'm sorry, what?" I asked, tilting my head to the side in confusion.

Did I hear it correctly? He's commanding me to punish him?

"I said, punish me," he repeated with much authority this time. "Do it. I don't mind."

"What the hell. Are you crazy?" I scoffed as I crossed my arms over my chest. "Or are you just telling me this because you know that I can't report someone influential like you to the council?"

"The rain has already stopped. Should we just go to class?"

"No. We should cut classes. I bet most of our classmates will do the same thing."

"But we have a quiz right?"

"Don't be such a buzzkill, meanie. Let's just stay in the library and have fun!"

I slapped Ash's hand away from my chin and pushed him when I heard the whispers of some students coming here. I quickly stepped back to the side. This time, I need to be careful so he wouldn't corner me again, and avoid anyone seeing us in a situation like this.

"Ash, what the hell? Why did you push me?" a female voice suddenly spoke, and it was the girl Ash was kissing earlier. "I thought you didn't want any trouble and didn't want anyone to catch us, that's why you brought me to the library, but..." Her words trailed off when she looked at me. She even ran her fingers through her hair, feeling annoyed. "This isn't part of our agreement. I'm leaving."

I suddenly snapped back to reality when she said that. No, she can't leave. If Ash wants me to report him to the guidance office, I also need to bring this girl with me.

"Wait-" I tried to stop her, but Ash immediately held my wrist and stopped me from chasing the woman. My eyes narrowed as I looked at him, ignoring the strange electric shock in my body just because of his simple touch. "I thought you wanted me to report to you. For me to do that, I need her."

"But I'm already here. Am I not enough for you?"

I smirked. "Stop with your tactics, Ash. I need her."

"Tell me why," Ash commanded, leaning to the bookshelf while folding his arms.

"For example, if two of you conspired to rob a bank and only one of you got caught and imprisoned, would that be okay? No, right?" I said in a low tone but only enough for him to hear. "She was an apprentice. If I catch you, she should be included. Like buy one and take one package."

"Wow, that was a weird comparison," he chuckled at what I had said, but I wasn't joking with him, "but have some mercy, will you? She's running for latin honors in her department, and you, reporting to the guidance office, will ruin her dream. Can you endure the pain with that?"

I couldn't answer him since I was distracted by the students who were already near us. They might see me with Ash and think something else, so I immediately pulled Ash to the other side of the library where some broken chairs were still being fixed.

This wasn't a storage area, but it looks like one. I'm sure no one will come here, or if there is anyone, there are very few.

"Fuck you, Ash. Seriously, it didn't look like you were concerned about her at all," I said as I took advantage of that moment to curse him.

I even clapped silently as I stared at him, but my annoyance intensified as Ash smirked at me with his amused expression.

"She's my schoolmate, and to look at it from another perspective, she's been my customer since she was studying at our school. My family's school." His grin widened, which was really annoying. "So, of course, I'm genuinely concerned." He stepped away from me while still grinning. I don't know why there are times when he approaches me and there are times when he suddenly distances himself from me. It looks like he was playing with me, but he was trying his best to maintain a safe distance from me.

What are you trying to do, Ash?

"She studies well, but you're disrupting her life," I replied in disbelief. "That's not an act of concern, Ash. That was manipulation. You have a knack for good girls, don't you? Why would you love to ruin their lives?"

I am so damn aware that I shouldn't waste my time like this, but it feels satisfying to argue with him. I was just praying that there was no one there at the counter to borrow or return books. The librarian will know that I haven't been diligently doing my duty, and I'll be scolded, for sure.

"I know that you were watching earlier while we were making out. You know that she's the one seducing me." My eyes widened at his words. "All I did was seize the opportSapphire. She was the one offering herself to me, so why would I resist?"

"You knew I was watching, yet you didn't stop?" I whimpered in disgust. "Wow, that was so fucking messed up."

He's hopeless. No matter what I say to him, I'm sure he'll still believe in himself. That's how rich people are. They always think they're right. I can't do anything about that.

"Yes, just like how you know that cursing someone is prohibited in this school, but you still do it."

"Stop it." I gave him a deadly glare.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"Why would I? I love the way you curse me. It sounds heavenly to my ears..."

He was about to step closer to me, but I was shocked at what he did next.
