Chapter 209

Asleep Stanley remained still without giving her any response
Justthen, Wendy’sphonelitupwithanincomingcall.
ItwasLuna.
Wendy answered quickly and Luna s panicked voice came through Wendy where are you You need to get back to the dorm right now Halsey s in trouble
What Halsey was in trouble
Wendy immediately hung up and carefully slipped out of Stanley s embrace She quickly gathered her clothes from the carpet slipping them on before hurrying out of the room
Wendy left and soon after the door to Imperial Garden clicked open and someone entered silently
ItwasLuna.
Lunahadarrived.
She walked into the room taking in the sight of Stanley still asleep on the couch and the clothes scattered across the floor It was clear to anyone what had happened the night before
Stanley and Wendy had slept together
Luna lifted her hands to unbutton her shirt and slowly slipped it off Then she laid herself down next to Stanley gazing adoringly a this handsome noble face This was the closest she had ever been to him and she could hardly believe it

Luna reached out to pull the blanket off Stanley intending to slip into his arms
But just then Stanley seemed to stir He slowly opened his eyes waking up
Luna quickly asked Mr Hawk you re awake
When Stanley s eyes opened he immediately saw the unfamiliar face next to him He s at up his cold piercing gaze locking on to Luna Who are you What are you doing here

But as he opened his eyes Wendy was nowhere to be found
Hadhe…sleptwithWendy’s classmateinstead?
Stanley s gaze fell on the s of a where a bloodstained mark remained on the cushion a girl s most precious symbol of her first time
His face hardened turning dark and forbidding Put your clothes back on
In the study Z ayn rushed in breathless Mr Hawk
Stanley still wearing the clothes from the night before looked grim Did you goto the hospital to look for Wendy last night
I did Z ayn replied I even showed Mrs Hawk the footage from the vacation villa s surveillance cameras and told her your lefthand was injured because of her I tried to get Mrs Hawk to come to Imperial Garden but she didn t agree She went back into the ward
Z ayn had seen Wendy enter the room last night
What Z ayn didn t know was that after he left Wendy had come out and headed to Imperial Garden
A bitter self deprecating smile crossed Stanley s face She hadn t come just as he had expected
Last night he had been with her classmate not her
When Stanley had seen the bloodstain on the s of a he knew it wasn t Wendy
Because Wendy had lost her first time long ago
Stanley didn t even know what he had been hoping for How foolish of him to imagine that she might actually come
