A tall burly guy approached both Kasela and Brenda, he stood in the hall with his hands tucked in his pocket and he motioned with his head for both girls to descend the stairs. They both came down and stared at him nervously. He was tall, burly and wore a black shirt over a faded blue denim trousers with black boots, his folder sleeves showed his tattooed arms. He had dark hair and eyes with piercings on his brows and right corner of his lower lip, he was handsome and he stood there staring at the two girls with a wicked smirk on his face.
"I know you girls are freshers but let me introduce myself, I'm Maximus Grimllins" The guy introduced himself.
"I'm Kasela"
"I'm Brenda"
The girls introduced themselves respectively and made to move away but he quickly blocked them.
"Not so fast, you won't be leaving without my permission" Maximus said and a group of senior guys entered the hall
"Hey Maxims, you got some new preys?" One of them said and Maximus chuckled as he approached Kasela
"I haven't dated a fresher and I want one now, I heard they are quite fun to be with" Maximus said and the guys laughed.
Kasela tightened her hand in Brenda's while praying for someone to save them, she was quite scared compared to Brenda who looked calm.
"So Kasela, what will you say to my proposal? You willing to be my girl?" Maximus asked.
"No, I'm not" Kasela answered firmly, making Maximus click his tongue in annoyance.
"You see, we have a problem cause you just caught the Great Maximus attention, so you won't get to be saying no" Maximus said softly with his gaze on Kasela.
"No, she will, she has every right to make her decisions and you don't get to make decisions for any girl" Brenda said firmly.
The guys laughed and Kasela wondered what was so funny.
"Like I said you are freshers, you don't know the rules yet and one don't get to speak to me in that manner, however I will let that slide" Maximus said.
"Isn't it about time you let the girls leave", a cold voice interrupted them and everyone turned towards the entrance where Regalus stood at the door with his hands in his pockets, his gaze flickered past Kasela and landed on Maximus.
"Well, well, well, who do we have here?" Maximus said and looked at his minions
"The great Regalus Rogers'" one of them answered in a mocking tone and when Regalus gaze landed on him he shivered in fright and looked away.
"The last time I checked, you don't poke your nose into my business, so why now?" Maximus asked with a hardened gaze.
"Don't you think it's childish and petty going after and bullying the newbies? Why don't you go for the seniors?" Regalus asked.
Maximus chuckled "it's funny how you repeat the same words you used when I approached Bianca or should I say you have an interest in her too?" He asked with a glare.
Regalus clicked his tongue in annoyance "I don't have any interest in her" he declared "You girls should return to your dorm'" Regalus ordered and both Kasela and Brenda scrambled up the stairs.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are beginning to get on my nerves" Maximus chuckled in annoyance as he shook his head.
"I have always been on your nerves" Regalus answered nonchalantly and glared at Maximus minions who scrambled away in fright.
Just then Regalus friends arrived and Maximus shot them a glare "I hope you stay out of my matters" he said and left.
"Hey Regal why did you save those girls" asked Kelvin.
"Yeah it's unlike you to involve yourself with Maxims, you know we usually stay out of his matters" Maxwell added.
Regalus took a deep breath but didn't answer those questions. It's a well known fact that Maximus is a bully who preys on the newbies of the school and he (Regalus) don't always give a damn or care about it, even the school Rector had begged him to interfere but he didn't budge.
However, when he saw Maxwell with Kasela, he wanted to ignore them as usual but he couldn't no matter how hard he tried especially when he saw the fear in her eyes. He needed to get a grip of himself, Regalus thought. Maxwell nudged him out of his thoughts, casting him a glare, Regalus walked away.
