Chapter 34: Restless Heart

Oliver's POV

I drove away from the school parking lot feeling a little better; I don't plan to fight with Declan, and I will try to stay away from him as possible, but I think it would be impossible for me to keep silent if he went near Victoria. I am aware that my life in the academy will never be the same now that Declan has come.

I didn't go home to the Winner mansion, but instead, I went to my place to rest and clear my mind. But I know starting today, my heart became restless since I couldn't stop myself from thinking about Victoria. I was hoping I could make her fall for me, even if I knew that she liked me too, and I can feel her attraction towards me, but I also know her strong personality and pride, and I am confident she will do everything to get back at me.

I released a deep sigh when I reached my house, and I slowly got out of my car and walked towards the front door. I slumped my body into the couch of my living room, and I couldn't believe what had happened in our classroom earlier. Declan was giving me headaches, and I needed Victoria's trust if I wanted to have her in my life. 

I know it would be a big challenge for me since I have hurt Victoria so much, and I don't think she will trust me enough to give her heart to me since I have been stupid and I insulted her so many times. I fished out my phone from my pocket and made a video call, and I felt nervous as I waited for my best friend to answer my call. 

And when his face appeared on the screen, he was beaming at me. Zane got up from the swivel chair and walked towards the wide window of my office, and I suddenly felt jealous that my best friend had a good time working in my company while I was being punished by going to school every day pretending to be a student.

But as I think about Victoria, I realize I want to be there for her. I no longer need someone to remind me she would be my mate since I wanted her to be mine, and I wouldn't say I like the idea that Declan was longing to touch her, and I never feel this way towards the opposite sex, and I realize I will do everything I can to make her mine.

"If you have only listened to me, Oliver, you will no longer feel like an idiot right now. I am sorry, buddy, but let me tell you this; you deserve what is happening with your life because you always had been hard-headed regarding Victoria." My best friend declared after I told him about what happened in our classroom earlier today.

"You never gave attention to any of us, not even with the elders, and you tried to ask the Moon Goddess countless times to give you another mate, and what if she heard your plea? What you going to do, Oliver?" Zane added, and his last words penetrated in my core, and I felt so horrified to think that I was losing Victoria because of my stupidity.

"I will beg the Moon Goddess to give her back to me," I said in more than a whisper, and I could see the amusement on my best friend's face while shaking his head.

"I just hope you are not yet late, Oliver." He said.

"Do you realize I called you because I needed your support to boost my confidence, and I didn't expect you would make me feel so down?" I said.

"I don't intend to dishearten you, Oliver; I only told you the truth," Zane said.

"What is your plan, now?" He asked as he looked at me with a solemn expression on his face, and I shrugged my shoulders, and I couldn't believe he would be laughing at me.

"And why are you laughing at me?" I asked, and I couldn't hide my irritation anymore.

"I just couldn't believe for the first time you don't know what to do, you always have solutions to every problem, and we always depended on you for whatever decision we have to make for the goodness of our pack, and even with our personal life." Zane declared.

"Yeah, I know I am in too much confusion right now; I don't know how to make it right, Zane," I responded, and he looked at me for a long time.

"I know I can never dictate to you what to do, but as your best friend, all I can say is be true to yourself. Don't be afraid of your feelings, Oliver." He said.

"We all know you don't believe in love and having a mate, but now that you experience it first hand, don't try to fight it if you don't want to have regrets in the future." He added.

"Yeah, I know; I am just scared if she will not accept me," I responded.

"It seemed something happened to you, Oliver, you used to have overflowing confidence, and this is the first time I can tell you are so unsure about yourself. Girls flaunted themselves to you, and I guess Victoria can't resist your charm." He muttered.

"I could tell I made her so angry with me, Zane, and I felt proud that I was her first kiss. And the way she kissed me back was enough to tell me she had feelings for me, but I ruined everything since I flirted with the cheerleader captain. I tried my best to show it to Victoria's face that I didn't like her, and Victoria's bitterness towards me is evident." I said.

"I am sure you can tame her, brother," He said, and Zane said his goodbye to me when I heard my secretary's voice in the background, and I ended the call while I was staring into space since I didn't know what to do.

I didn't realize I dozed off, and when I woke up, I realized Victoria was now on her way home. I got up and changed my clothes into ripped jeans and a black shirt that hugged my body enough to showcase my muscular frame.

I smiled when I saw Victoria's car on the driveway, and I parked my car and climbed out hastily, and I could see the head housekeeper was busy instructing the maids on what to do. I realized they were all engaged as of the moment, preparing for the arrival of Victoria's parents, and I smiled as I thought about Niklaus would be my father-in-law in the future if his daughter would give me a chance.

I made my way through the grand staircase, and I suddenly felt excited knowing Victoria was in the house. I wondered how I would convince her to spend some time with me, and when I reached our floor, I was standing outside her bedroom, and on my way to knock on her door, when I suddenly felt worried that she might get angry, and drive me away if she will find me standing on her doorstep.

I chickened out, and I realized I needed to formulate a plan to convince Victoria to spend more time with me. So, instead of banging on her door, I slowly turned around and strode towards my bedroom. And I was surprised when my room suddenly opened, and my heart skipped a beat the moment I found Victoria in my room.

I could see the blush that crept on her face when she realized I caught her on the act, and we were staring at each other for a long while, and I could see the worries beneath her hard stares.

And I hated myself when I couldn't say even a single, now that Victoria is standing in front of me with her eyes widely open. And I couldn't control the rapid beating of my heart, and it felt like my heart was about to burst because of its constant thumping against my chest.

I know I was given another chance to have a decent conversation with her, but I remained speechless as I gawked at her. I couldn't stop myself from staring at her beautiful face, and when my eyes looked at her lips, I could feel the urge to kiss her once again, but I knew I needed to control myself, or else I will lose my chance to win Victoria's heart.

"I don't intend to get inside your room, but I needed to make sure that you are no longer hiding a wild animal inside my parent's house," Victoria said as she looked at me in the eyes, and I could feel her hatred towards me.

"Victoria, it is okay if you will stay inside my room, and I would be glad to spend the night with you," I answered, and her face darkened right away, but I could still see the blush on her face, and I realized I made her angry, and I have regretted what I have said.

"I will never dream of sleeping beside you, Prize. You better stop your illusion because I hate you, and I don't like you." She said, and the bitterness of her voice made me feel so hurt.

"I know how much you hated my guts and my existence Victoria, but you can't deny the attraction you felt for me, and I just want to ask you one favor," I said as I looked at her without blinking my eyes.

"Don't make me laugh, Oliver; you are conceited; I am not attracted to you, and that concept sounded hilarious, and I wanted to vomit, and you are not in the position to ask some favor from me." She responded, and I moved closer to her until we were an inch away from each other that I could almost feel the loud beating of Victoria's heart.

I was waiting for her to slap me when I put my hands around her waist, and I could feel the excitement when she didn't push me away. I could no longer stop myself from claiming her enticing lips, and it felt so nice to kiss her once again; when she opened her mouth for me and kissed me back hungrily, I pulled her closer to me as I deepened my kiss.. I couldn't stop myself from feeling so happy as I realized Victoria's body betrayed her since she could no longer stop herself from kissing me back with urgency.
