Filled with an emotion I couldn't decode, the sparkling blue of the eyes sent pleasurable chills down my spine, a funny warmth spreading through me under his glare.

Starting to walk towards me, I suddenly became wary of the stranger making his way towards me but as if he could tell I was going to run, he said in the most chillingly calm voice
"Stay where you are, Maya."

I didn't like how just a few words made me want to find out everything about him.

It usually the boys after me, not the other way around!!

I took the moment to really admire the beauty that stood in front of me, his eyes contrasting in the most charming matter against his lightly tanned face, his dark hair and lashes bringing out the special sparkle that lit up his face. Yet, a look of intimidation and an overall hardness in his face made me want to move back and curl into a ball. His attractiveness and aura made me want to come closer and wrap my hands around him but also made me want to go running for the hills.

His face is was blessed with a sharp jawline and an angular nose, thin but hard set. Thick and well placed, his dark brows perfectly framed his perfectly chiseled face, my insides doing unfamiliar flips as I really soaked in his blatant attractiveness.

What was this guy doing with someone like me? I heard myself ask before I remembered what a girl I was like mere days ago.

His strong strides made me want to run away but once again, that curiosity held me in place, stopping me from running into safety. By the time he reached me, I could feel a mental drool coming from my mouth as I completely drowned myself in his looks and aura, loving to watch his ways, the way he walked, the way he looked, the way he moved with a blatant want, dripping with a calming intimidation.

Grabbing my wrist in a gentle manner, he pulled me towards his car, not giving me a chance to object. He opened the door and let me slide in and I forgot about my own free will. I let him do whatever he doing.

He must be a witch or something because why in the heck am I getting in a car with a stranger?

A really freaking attractive stranger.

Get your head together you horny bastard.

Sitting at the steering wheel, he turned towards me and stared into my eyes and the moment our eyes met, I knew that he wasn't here to have fun and mess around but it had greatly to do with the current situation I had found myself in.

"I'll get straight to the point. That man I just crashed into is after you and I haven't got a clue why. Yet anyway."

"Why do you think he's after me?"

"Are you actually dumb, Maya?"

"What are you talking about?"

"You're literally on the radar of a serial killer and you're just getting into a car with a stranger?"

Taken aback by what he said, I sat there just trying to understand why he'd be so worried about me.

"You didn't really give me much of a choice when you pulled me in you know."

"Do you know who I am?"

I shook my head, still feeling a weird familiarity about his face but I had no clue why.

Why did I suddenly seem to know everyone that I met? Something was not right, it didn't take a genius to realise.

I had to get out of here.

I didn't even know who this guy was and here I am, getting into the same car as me.

But he did save me from Silver, Jack Dillen, I didn't even know what to call him.

"Don't leave now, I'm here to help you against Jack."

"Why the hell should I trust you?" I burst out. Who does he think he is to just waltz into my life and try and take control over my problems? All he did was smirk and I couldn't stand it. I don't know why but when he smirked, it reminded me of the times that Derek had beat me in my small bets, that feeling of defeat that overcame me everytime I was beat.

No I shouldn't be thinking about Derek. He saved my life even after everything I did to him and left, I couldn't have asked for more even if I wanted to.

"Just because you're all attractive and stuff, don't think that I'll be tricked into coming with you. You could be Silver's best friend for all I know."

Once I had said that, I saw a flash of hurt cross his face before his smirk found it's way back onto his face.

"Honey, you think I'm attractive?"

Oh no.

I could feel a slight blush growing on my face and I knew then that he wouldn't be a threat. It'd definitely be fun trying to get to know him, especially because there are an evident decline in the good looking guys recently.

Other than Derek. He's pretty good looking.

Oh my goodness, I need to stop myself for real.

I felt a blush make it's way onto my face as I tried to create a comprehensible response but my brain turned into fried potatoes and the smirk on his face only grew.

"I.. No.. Ye... Stop it you bastard."

"I'm only a bastard for you."

"No, stop. Why did you stop Silver?"

It looked like he was almost hurt that I was trying to change the subject but once again, this was quickly masked with arrogance.

"I need you for my revenge on him, I can't do that while you're under his command now can I?"

"How did you know the stakes?"

"I know a lot more than you think you know."

"That isn't reassuring..." I let him know as I felt a small chill rise up my back, knowing that I wasn't even aware that someone else were keeping an eye on me.

"You remember that man you saw on the way back from the police station? That was me. You looked so alarmed and you started running."

"I thought you were Silver." I said, embarrassment overcoming me as I realised I had been running away from the friend, not the foe. 

Once again, he returned his face into a stoic one, letting me know none of the emotions that danced through his eyes before.

Out of nowhere, he twisted his ignition and started driving.

"Wait what about my car?"

"Shut up and just wait ok?"

"No! Let me go oh my god. I don't know who you are."

"Fine, if it'll make you happy, I'll tell you who I am, but when I tell you, you aren't allowed to run."

And I braced myself for what he said next, but never would I have thought that the words that came out of his mouth would be the words I was hearing.

"My name's Jacob. Jacob Dillen."
