Chapter 2 His true color

• It was Saturday in the morning. Denise was sleeping when she felt a kiss on her neck from her ear to her temple, causing her to moan. Her body is on fire, and she is eager to know more about it.
• "Wake up, my Princess!" Mike yelled at her, startling her awake. Then she realized it had all been a dream. She groaned and rubbed her eyes. Mike smiled at her with adoration in his eyes.
• He said as he sat on the bed next to her, "Take a bath now, it's my birthday, we're going to the mall." "She pouted and embraced her pillow, saying, "It's too early in the morning, it's not like we're going to school." She was drowsy and wanted to sleep even more, but mike tickled her and said, "Come on, my Princess, it's my special day." It's my birthday today." She couldn't take it any longer and burst out laughing. She despises being tickled. As a result, she gives up.
• "All right, OK, I'm up now get off me!!" she said as she tried to catch her breath.
• Mike exited her room, saying, "Good, then I'll wait for you downstairs, my Princess." She smiled a little when she remembered how they used to take baths together when they were in sixth grade. But she was now uncomfortable with him doing that, perhaps because they are both adults and Mike understands. Even though he is so domineering, she despises it when he refuses to let her have friends.
• At the very least, he is unaware of her crush on Richard Ramos, her classmate. That's why she likes him since he's so polite and caring. Denise kept her crush a secret from Mike since she didn't want him to panic out. But the strange thing about their friendship is that he expresses his brotherly affection by kissing and holding her on the lips. She is aware of how bizarre it is, but she is unconcerned. She has always regarded him as an older brother and nothing more.
• So, she finished her dressing and headed downstairs with a Shoulder bag in hand. Mike was very close to her father, and she overhears him talking to him. He and her parents are friends and are familiar with each other. Mike has also known her for a long time.
• "After a thousand years, my Princess, you were finally finished. I was afraid something bad would happen to you, so don't scare me again, okay?" Mike hugged her. He then took her hand in his and led her out the door." Bye her dad see you later" she waved to her dad and her dad just smiled and nodded to her.
• As they were walking outside, She saw Richard jogging with his friends. He saw Denise and he winked at her. Richard stays somewhere in this neighborhood.
• "Good morning, Denise," Richard said as he approached her. But she was terrified when he stared at Mike and tightened his fist, like if he wanted to beat Richard. "A-ah Hi, Richard," Denise answered hesitantly, trying not to blush; he chuckled and looked at Mike, who became enraged when he noticed his blushing. "Oh Mike, hello there," Richard replied as he and his pals walked away.
• Mike grabbed her arm as they were going to continue walking. She screamed in terror. "I don't even want to see you talking with him and smiling. If you do it again, I'm going to kill him!!" She was taken aback when he said that, especially since he said it while smiling like a lunatic. He's getting on her nerves, and she can't take it any longer. He is controlling her life; she is 18 years old, for God's sake; she is no longer a 12-year-old little girl.
• "Who do you think you are? You are controlling my whole life? What's the matter with you!? I can't take it anymore; you're just my best friend, and I understand that you're trying to protect me, but you're going too far. I'm already 18 and can make my own decisions, so please do—-" When she got close enough to the car, she had to stop talking. Mike forces her to do it. "Looked, my Princess, I just want the best for you," he said, pausing to look down before rising to meet her gaze.
• "Don't you get it, Denise, you belong to me. You are mine, I remember telling you this when we first meet. You don't need anybody else. I can protect you, only me that means..." He abruptly closed the area between them because his face was too close to her. He had a minty breath on his lips, which she could feel. But what he said next terrified her. "And anyone who tries to take you away from me will be killed; I will never let you go, Denise; you are mine and mine alone, so keep that in mind." Then he smiled and kissed her lips.
• What happened to the Mike she's comfortable with? He had become a terrifying man. Mike's warning that he will kill anyone else because of her surprised her. She was certain that Mike was scaring her to keep her from talking to other men.
• I mean, he can't be serious, can he?
• ~
• Denise was still shocked by what Mike had said to her; she couldn't believe her ears. So she calmed down and let it go, knowing that Mike was still her greatest friend and someone she adored like an older brother.
• Denise and Mike were on their way to the mall. Mike walks with her hands in his to ensure that no one approaches her. She couldn't be angry with him because she and he both adored each other. Mike would never harm Denise or do anything to her, she knows. Mike, on the other hand, is aiming to get rid of Richard as soon as possible since he considers him a threat. He intends to murder him as soon as possible, making it appear as if it were suicide or an accident. He doesn't care what others think of him; all he cares about is Denise, and as long as she obeys him, he'll be fine.
• "Ohh, you've arrived as well," Richard said that to Denise in soothing tones, but before she could respond, Mike drew her closer to him and wrapped his arm around her waist. Denise was perplexed, so she tried to get his arm away from her, but mike pulled her arm even tighter and said to her, "Don't be obstinate goodness if you want him to survive until tomorrow," his voice was menacing, and it scared her like a child. She merely smiled a little at Richard as she shook her head. She was upset and afraid to fight with him.
• Richard, on the other hand, notices that she is bothered by what Mike has done to her. That's when Richard whispered something to Mike as he tapped Mike on the shoulder to catch his attention. "Mike, what's the matter with you? You don't need to control her life because you're just her best friend." Mike was enraged, and he wanted to kill Richard, but he remembered Denise and how she had obeyed him, and he didn't want to damage her feelings over this nonsense.
• Mike simply locked his gaze on him. "Oh Richard, we need to go now," Denise said. "I need to find the comfort room." So, they stroll with Denise holding Mike's hand. She wanted to get away from him, but she was worried for Richard's safety. She wasn't going to allow her best friend to have complete control over her life. She needs to do something; she can't keep doing this "Did you think you'd be able to get away from me? Come on, my Princess, don't be too hard on yourself "Then she realized it was Mike who was speaking. Mike forced her into the conform room and shut the door; there was no one else in the room but her and Mike, so she was afraid of what mike would do to her this time. She exhales deeply and calms "Mike, you're my best friend, but you're overstepping your bounds. I have no idea what's wrong with you or why you're acting this way. Please stop and let me make my own decision-" Mike's jaw was clenched, and he pinned her to the wall with his hands over her mouth. He was furious, and he despised the fact that she yelled back at him.
• Mike kissed her softly and gently after removing his hand and holding her hands above her head. "Let me go!!" she screamed. Denise kissed him back and stepped back. She was perplexed because this wasn't his usual kiss, but then she realized it wasn't just a friend's kiss, and she shook her head. She adores him, but only as an older sibling.
• "This isn't right. Yes, I love you as an older brother, but you're my best friend "She revealed everything to him. Mike, on the other hand, kisses her again, sucking on her neck and leaving a mark on her flesh. She gathered her strength and pushed him off of her.
• "You're insane, what are you doing!" she screamed, but Mike only chuckled, and she furrowed her brows. "What are you laughing about!" she asked. Mike simply smiled as he stared at her and gently touched her cheek.
• "Yes, my Princess, I'm crazy for you, I'm serious, you have no idea how much I love you, which is why I'm jealous when you're talking to someone." "I can't stop myself from loving you," he said as he took her wrist in his and brought it up to her head. "I'll have to show you what I mean when I say you're mine and mine alone," she whimpered. I'm going to make you feel it until you know you can't get away from me." Mike then slipped his hand down her back and grasped her buttocks. "I'll show you what I'm talking about," he murmured, grinding into her.
• She knew it was wrong, but she was afraid to let her best friend do what he wanted. A knock on the door abruptly ended their conversation. Mike inhaled deeply and kissed her one more. He smirked and bit his lower lip as he said, "I'll see you tonight, my Princess." The janitor was there when he opened the door, and he stared at them before allowing them to go. Denise dashed out the door and into the mall. She wants to return home. She wanted to arrive before Mike so she could tell her Dad about Mike's ungrateful behavior. She wished for it to end.
