Chapter 11: Resolution
Chapter 11: Resolution Despite the undeniable attraction and connection she felt with James, she was acutely aware of the world she had stumbled into – a world filled with secrecy, rivalry, and potentially dangerous agendas. Beatrice had always been independent and cautious, and the prospect of being drawn into a malevolent organization was something she was determined to avoid. The bus arrived, and Beatrice boarded with a heavy heart and a cloud of uncertainty hanging over her. She was resolved to seek the truth and understand the depths of the enigma she had become a part of. The story of the Eagles and their rogue captain was over as far as she was concerned.

Chapter 12: The Real Motivation
James's flat was a far cry from what Beatrice had expected. It was devoid of the usual trappings she associated with a notorious campus figure like him. Instead, the room was simple and sparsely furnished, with only the essentials. As they entered the room, Beatrice couldn't help but look around, taking in the minimalism. She found herself feeling even more curious and apprehensive about what James was about to reveal. What could be so important that he had brought her here? James gestured for Beatrice to take a seat on the plain sofa, and he sat across from her, his eyes never leaving hers. His typically roguish demeanor seemed to soften, replaced by a more serious and contemplative expression. "Beatrice," he began, his voice steady but tinged with an unusual vulnerability, "I want to answer your question about my motivation. You see, my life has been far from ordinary. The legends that surround me are both a curse and a shield. They've allowed me to navigate the underground of th

Chapter 15: Incessant Calls
James found himself unable to immediately call Beatrice after she left. He was deeply conflicted, torn between his protective instincts and his more carnal desires. He couldn't comprehend why he felt this way about her, and he struggled with the notion that she was a forbidden territory due to his inexplicable urge to shield her.

He had never experienced such inner turmoil before. He prided himself on being a law unto himself, but this situation had him questioning everything. As he grappled with his feelings, his phone incessantly rang and buzzed throughout the day.

Chapter 16: Return Match
There's a saying that goes, "The child who keeps the mother awake will find sleep elusive as well." It's a reminder that one's actions can come back to affect them, and in this case, it seemed like a fair game was about to begin for James. “Game on Jamie!” thought Beatrice. She was less anxious about sleeping now. At night, she had a bath and got ready for bed. She slept soundly through the night. Everything seemed fine, and she felt relieved. But on the third night after deciding to pay back in her dreams, she woke up sweating and being chased. In the dream, she ran, stumbled, and fell, only to get up again. She was caught and thrown onto a sofa as the faceless man closed in on her. She struggled, slapping at the figure, and then she woke up with a start, her hand throbbing from hitting the headboard in her sleep. She was livid, took her phone, and unblocked James. She called him, though it was 3 am. "Beatrice! Are you okay?" asked James, clearly concerned.
