Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

"WHERE are we?" I asked while panting and sweating profusely.

My back was pressed against the wall as I tried to fan myself with both hands. I told myself I'd only talk to him for a minute, but how much time had passed since I left the hospital?

"I don't know, but I guess this is a safe place." Ash replied, staring at me. "Well, as long as you're with me, you'll always be safe."

"Thank you," I whispered as I tried to wipe the sweat from my forehead with my palm. "What?"

"ver expected to hear that," he said in disbelief, staring at me. "What a good girl."

Ash stepped closer and patted my head like I was a dog, causing me to frown and lightly slap his hand away.

But what he asked next shocked me.

"Do you want to play a game with me?" Ash asked, leaning forward as he caressed my chin.

I raised an eyebrow. "A game?"

"A love game..." He placed his lips on my ear, slightly licking my earlobe. "Whoever falls in love first, loses. If you're really confident that you won't fall for someone like me, then play the game with me." Ash bit my ear, and a pool of hits struck my body. "What can you say, Miss good girl? Are you in?"

"A game, huh..." I smirked, shaking my head. "Then you already lost. You claimed that you like me, right?"

"Well, you're right," Ash answered, chuckling. "Dang, why would I even participate in a losing game? I forgot that I'm already swayed by you."

I looked at him, and tons of questions filled my mind. To make sure that he really likes me... There's only one way to find out.

"What if... we have a one-night stand, Ash?" I asked boldly, taking the initiative.

"Repeat what you said," Ash demanded, gripping both of my hands tightly before lowering them to my sides.

He wasn't holding my hands up anymore, but he still hadn't let go. His hands pressed into my sides, sometimes tightening painfully, but whenever he saw me wince, he loosened his grip. "Are you crazy, Sapphire?" he asked again, annoyed when I didn't respond.

I just looked at him, and he met my gaze with a meaningful stare.

Lust and admiration were written all over his face, but why would he push me away? We had almost done something before, but now he's acting like this? I can't figure him out, no matter how hard I try. "What's crazy about having sex with you, Ash?" I asked, trying to break free from his grip, but I failed. "You said you wanted me so badly, right? So, let's have sex."Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

I felt him flinch as I bit his earlobe. He didn't expect that, and honestly, I didn't expect myself to do it either. Am I crazy for being the one to suggest it?

Maybe I'm treating my life like a joke. I'm even willing to give him my virginity without hesitation.

"I'm offended, Sapphire. And if it wasn't obvious, I'm telling you now." He let go of my hands and ran his fingers through his hair.

His gaze was dark, showing pain and betrayal. I didn't understand why he looked at me like that, but I did my best to meet his gaze. I even clenched my fists as the intensity of his stare pierced through my chest. That's when the confidence I had earlier started to fade. I looked at him with a hint of worry as he continued to stare at me, trying to communicate something through his eyes and expression.

"Ash..." I wasn't even sure why I had the courage to call his name.

He was supposed to look at me because I called him, but he didn't. Instead, he bowed his head, as if he couldn't bear to speak while looking at me.

"You're insulting my feelings for you, Sapphire," he muttered in a sad tone. "I'm not used to chasing after someone, but I'm doing it for you. You've hurt me with your words and actions, but I endured it. I'm not used to suffering and being in pain, yet here I am, chasing after you."

Ash raised his head, looking at me intently. "What do I need to do for you to believe me?"

"It was..." I stopped mid-sentence, biting my lower lip.

Suddenly, the rain started pouring as I fell silent.

I was about to say it was all a misunderstanding, but I knew that was a lie.

"Do you know what's more painful than what your mother said earlier?" he asked as he grabbed my arm and pulled me closer to him. "It's the fact that you still think you're like those other girls I fucked with, even though I've been showing you that you're different."

That was the last thing he said as he pulled me, hailed a taxi, pushed me inside, and left me alone.

"T-To the General Hospital, please," I stammered to the driver, who immediately nodded and started the car.

He was so freaking mad, and I don't even know what I should do about it.

I NEVER thought months would pass, and the final exams were over. Mom was already home and healthy again.

It was good news, even though my father was back at the house, living his life as if nothing unusual had happened. I will never stop admiring his guts. I don't know where he gets them from.

The hospital expenses were paid by Ash, and the debt to that old woman was settled. He even gave us a penalty fee for what she did to hurt my mom.

She deserved it, though. When she came to the hospital after my mom was discharged, she begged me to ask Ash to forgive her. ver imagined someone with such high pride like hers would kneel in front of me, asking such a favor.

If my mom hadn't been there, I might have kicked her face while she was kneeling. How could she ask me for Ash's forgiveness when I can't even ask him that myself?

"Did you and Ash have a fight?" Haze asked, who was next to me and had been pestering me for a while.

"None of your business," I snapped before glaring at him.

"Grumpy," he laughed, reaching to mess up my hair, but I shot him a death glare.

He glanced between me and his hand before deciding to lower it. He must've been afraid I'd break his arm again if he annoyed me.

I didn't even know how I ran into him. If I had known he was here on the field, I wouldn't have passed by.

"Hi, Haze," a sexy student greeted him as she walked by, pressing her body against his.

The idiot grinned, and I looked away, grimacing as they kissed right in front of me.

"I'm talking to someone, baby," Haze told her in a husky voice. "I'll call you later."

The girl nodded, glaring at me before stomping away.

"You should've gone with her. I don't want to talk to you either," I said honestly as I walked toward the gate. "I might even get into a fight with your fangirls." Final exams were over, my duty at the library and student council was done, and I had nothing left to do here.

"How could they? Ash's protection is still over you," he said casually, making my eyes widen.
