The Mephistopheles Book 1 Completed

Author's pov

Caliban shut his laptop off immediately and took a deep breath. He won't doubt her until she accepts that she did that on her own. If she has cheated him, he will make sure she pays well enough for that, and if she hasn't, then that person will pay whoever has done this shitty thing.

He threw the glass of water on the floor to calm himself. His baby girl can't be with anyone else, not even for drama!

He called Anya, but her phone wasn't reachable, so he called her bodyguard, who followed her silently without her knowledge. Anya never liked her privacy to be breached, but Caliban couldn't let her be like that; for her safety, he appointed guards who followed her but were like her shadow.

"Ray, where is your miss?" Caliban asked her while pinching his nose

"Miss is inside her college! Something has happened! I am trying to get information out as soon as possible." Ray replied to Caliban

"Very well, keep an eye on everything, I am reaching there." Caliban said and hung up without bothering to wait for his reply

Ray knows one thing: if Caliban is coming here himself, a big drama is waiting for everyone.

Caliban called Anya again, but there was no response at all. His patience was running out, and with each passing moment, he was losing his mind. He was driving at such a speed that it felt like he was racing against time.

He reached her college and entered inside like he owned the place.

He saw almost every student gathered here, and in a place with a bit of height, Anya and Elijah were both standing together holding hands. Anya was smiling, but it was forced, and Elijah was flaunting his smile like he won something.

"So all of you listen carefully. Anya is my girlfriend, and soon we are going to be engaged. So if you have any problems with her being with me, you can fuck off. If I see anyone talking about our video, I will make sure he or she doesn't spend another day in this college." Elijah said, placing his hand on her waist

It was enough to Break the last string of Caliban's patience.

"What the hell is going on over here?" He shouted so loudly that everyone present got startled

Anya looked at him, and it was like she would faint at any moment. She never expected him to be here! How did he even come here? Why? Does he know? The only question that was sounding like poison to her right now was She can't imagine what will happen if he knows, and what if she can't prove her innocence? She doesn't want to end up like others.

She removed Elijah's hand from her waist and ran towards Caliban without wasting a moment. She hugged him tightly and started crying! Caliban hugged her tightly, like he was hiding her from everyone. Another round of gossiping started among the students. Caliban looked at Elijah, who looked straight at Caliban. He was angry, and Caliban's smirk added fuel to the fire.

"What happened to my baby girl? Why is she crying?" Caliban asked her calmly, like she was asking a baby

"I am sorry! I didn't kiss him, trust me! The video is wrong! I didn't cheat on you! Please trust me." Anya said that and cried more

Her tears were soaking his jacket, and he hated it so much. Her tears are precious, and she shouldn't waste them until they're out of pleasure.

"I know love! I know you didn't, tell me why your phone was unreachable. I called you so many times, but it never connected." Caliban asked while rubbing her back to calm her down

"Such a whore she is! First she was whoring around with Elijah, now with this guy. I told you she would spread her legs in front of anyone." a girl from the crowd said and Caliban heard her clearly because of the pin drop silence in the area

"Shut the fuck up. You bitch! Who are you to give Anya a character certificate? You have slept with multiple guys from our college. Do you want me to tell that to everyone? If I hear another word about her, I am going to burn your hair and make you bald, got it?" Elena said angrily

She has been watching the drama for a long time now, and now that Anya's protector is here, she can openly fight with anyone. Everything happened so fast that she was finding it hard to digest everything and react accordingly.

"At least I am not a cheater like her." That girl said

"And who said she cheated?" Caliban asked in a dangerously calm voice that could make anyone feel a chill down their spine

"That girl has made out with Elijah right after denying it in front of everyone. This girl is such a drama queen, she wanted to pretend like she was a loyal bitch and then whore around behind her boyfriend's back." that girl spat

"If I were you, I would have checked my words before uttering them. You don't want to disrespect the future daughter in law of the Knight family and get in trouble now, do you?" Caliban asked coldly but the girl started laughing loudly

"You're saying she is the future daughter in law of the Knight family. Just a few moments ago, she was in Elijah's arms, and he announced her as his girlfriend and soon to be fiancée. I guess she should decide with whom she wants to stay. Or maybe she wants to use both of you for obvious reasons; a whore like her can't get satisfied by one man, it seems." that girl said and Caliban had enough of this

"One more word against her, and I will throw you out of this college, and your family will be begging on the streets. You know I can do that, don't you?" Elijah stated angrily

"Why? For which crime? Telling the truth?" The girl argued

Anya cried more after hearing her! Normally she isn't someone who cries over these things, but when it's on her character and she doesn't have any proof to prove herself innocent. On top of that, Caliban's fear was too much. Caliban had asked her not to go, but Anya being Anya, she didn't listen to him and went for the trip, and now this happened. Her parents wouldn't like this either, that their daughter has gone viral overnight for kissing a guy.

"Shh! Don't cry, love, it will be over soon." Caliban cooed in her ears

"Anya has no relationship with him, she is my girlfriend, and the video that is going viral is fake. Soon we will be engaged, and it will be real. I will make sure that the video is taken down immediately, and you all, being responsible students, won't spread the video or keep it with you." Caliban said with finality that leaves no space for anything else

He picked Anya up in bridal style and carried her out. Elena smiled, looking at them, and gave a look of victory to that girl and Elijah both. She followed both of them as well. She needs to know how this scandal took place to begin with.

"Anya Don't cry, girl! Don't listen to that bitch; she is herself a whore; that's why she finds everyone like her." Elena said she was trying to cheer her up

"Sit inside the car, both of you are going somewhere else." Caliban said while he made her stand on her feet

Elena sat and made Anya sit as well. She was hugging Elena and crying.

"Don't cry, please; it's over, babe," Elena said and Anya looked at her, then looked at Caliban, who was driving

"You both trust me, right?" she asked and both replied in positive response

"Now, my love, can you tell me how all of this happened?" Caliban asked, skillfully hiding the anger he is feeling right now

Anya took a deep breath and started telling them about the real incident.

Flashback

A few days had passed since their first date, and everything was going smoothly. Anya was really happy and enjoying the time with Caliban; she forgot about all the things that made her worry.

One day she got to know that they were going on a two days one night camping trip in a forest. It was arranged by the college so every student could go.

Alice and Subham didn't oppose her going, they never did. Antonio wasn't happy with her going, but he didn't say anything as she wouldn't listen. He knows she is dating Caliban Knight, and the reaction he gave was not something Anya expected from him. He was very calm and didn't create a fuss, just told her to be careful, and if Caliban forced her or hurt her, she could count on him to protect her.

Anya digested that while having a hard time, but nevertheless she did.

"Caliban I am going on a trip for two days. So maybe that time I won't be able to talk to you. It's from our college." Anya said and Caliban just shook her head

"You're not going anywhere, love! I can't stay without you." Caliban denied her

"I wasn't asking you, baby, I was informing you. I have given the money, and tomorrow morning I am going." Anya said and Caliban glared at her

He didn't like it at all! Staying without her is impossible for him. In these few days she has become a bad habit of his, which he loves without any doubt.

"If you have fixed anything, why even bother to inform me?" Caliban asked

"My parents are my guardians; they have allowed me to go, they never stop me from doing something that gives me happiness; and I informed you because you're my boyfriend. I am a free person, and I don't like being caged." Anya told him clearly

After hearing her, he was quiet for a while and agreed to her trip. Anya didn't understand what happened, but something happened for sure. Caliban isn't someone who will agree so easily, but in her excitement for the trip, she didn't bother to think much.

She had her things packed, and now it's about time she went on her trip.

Elena joined her on the trip, so did Elijah. Anya has completely forgotten about him and his coffee date.

They all reached the camp, and given time to rest and freshen up later on, they can enjoy the wildlife around them.

Anya and Elena stayed together, along with two more girls.

They all enjoyed the whole day, and at night it was time for campfires and playing games.

Anya had informed her family and Caliban that she had reached them safely. That's all she talked about with them.

"Guys, let's play truth and dare!" Someone suggested from the group

"No, it's boring because everyone will choose truth, so who will pick dare? No one, and it will turn boring." another one said

"I have an idea to make it interesting." Elijah suggested

"What?" Ryker, his minion, asked

"We will keep a few chits in a bowl, and whenever the bottle stops, you have to pick a chit from the bowl and do whatever is written there. No one can change or escape it, do you agree?" Elijah asked

"yes, we do!" everyone said together

"Anya I think we should leave, I don't think we need to be here. Elijah is crooked as fuck, and he can do anything." Elena said she was trying to take Anya away from the group

"It will be suspicious if we leave like this, Elena. Stay here and participate. I don't want to be a target of their group." Anya said and Elena sighed

"So everyone, write two chits, one truth, another dare; don't show it to anyone, not even your friend; fold them and keep it in the bowl; I will give you a pen and paper." Elijah said and distributed the things

They all wrote and kept it in the bowl, including Anya and Elena.

" So let's start the game." Elijah said

"No, not yet. Don't you all think Elijah should sing a song? He is such a good singer, so why not?" Ryker said and others agreed to that

Anya was quiet because she wasn't interested in his singing for now. She was thinking to call Caliban if she gets a chance; he must be really angry with her.

" Fine, I will," Elijah said, looking at Anya, who was busy thinking about Caliban

Ryker handed Elijah his guitar and they started singing

🎶 When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks
And darling I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways 🎶

He looked at Anya but found her lost somewhere else he didn't like that but decided to continue singing in a hope that she will pay attention to him

🎶 Maybe just the touch of a hand
Oh me I fall in love with you every single day
And I just want to tell you I am
So honey, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are 🎶

He finished singing as Anya still wasn't paying attention; nevertheless, others clapped for him, and they started playing the game.

This game was interesting, as they didn't know what they would get.

The bottle stopped on Elena, so she picked up a chit, it was the truth, and a question was written on it.

"What did you get?" Ryker asked

"Truth! My question is, 'Have I ever lied to my friends about something very big that If the truth comes out, it can destroy our friendship.' The answer is yes I did but that was for the best. Lying for someone's sake isn't a sin." Elena said and kept the chit away

"But don't you think cheating on your friend is the worst thing you can do?" Elijah asked

"If cheating her brings happiness into her life, then no, it's not the worst thing you can do." Elena said a bit angrily, making Elijah raise his hands as if he were surrendering

"Who is he or she?" Anya asked

"You don't know her!" that's all Elena said and Anya didn't drag the topic out.

The game continued, and it stopped on Elijah this time. He picked a chit, and it was true as well.

"I Got the truth, the question is, 'Have I ever felt like I couldn't live without someone?' The answer is yes." Elijah said and it was Elena's turn to question him

"Last time I checked, you were a Casanova. Elijah, how come you fell for one girl? You change them like clothes, remember?" Elena mocked him

"People change when they meet their perfect other half." Elijah said and others hooted for him

After a few people, it was Anya's turn. She picked a chit and it was dare.

"My chit says dare 'kiss Elijah on his lips for one minute; it should be french kiss'" Anya read it aloud and others started cheering for them

Elena looked at her and found her looking at her.

"I can't do that. I am sorry." Anya denied

"You can't deny junior that it was a rule that no matter what comes, you have to do it." Ryker said

"I won't do this stupid dare at any cost. I don't know who wrote it, whoever you are, you suck, Bro!" Anya said and got up to leave, which she did

Elena was about to get up but Elijah stopped her

"I will go and bring her back." He said this and ran behind Anya

Elena was not going to listen to him, so she decided to follow, but as always, Elijah's gang stopped her from going behind them.

"Anya, stop walking, girl; you're going deep inside." Elijah said and Anya stopped

In her frustration, she went way too far for her own good. When she read the dare, Rishav and Caliban's faces came in front of her, and she couldn't cheat on them, not even for a dare. She won't be able to face them if she does that. Maybe they won't know, but she will, and that's enough to not do this.

"I just wanted some fresh air." Anya lied

"Sure you did, don't mind the dare, it's fine; you don't have to do something you don't want to do." Elijah said and stood very near her

"I guess we should go back." Anya said this and turned but Elijah held her back and stood in front of her

Anya was stunned for a few seconds, thinking about what was happening here. Why did Elijah behave like that?

"What are you doing?" Anya asked scared

"Don't move, there is a spider nearby, it's dangerous, so let me handle it." Elijah said and anya nodded

They stayed like that for a while, then Elijah said it was gone, and they came back again.

Elena was having a fight with Ryker and others, but Anya stopped it, and they went to their tent. The gossip of other girls didn't escape her ears.

They were like, 'only if it was me, I would have jumped on him.' 'I would have seduced him to my bed' 'I would have never say no to him' etc She ignored everything and left

She wasn't liking this trip anymore; she was missing Caliban very much. He didn't talk to her because he was angry. She slept after changing her clothes Elena didn't get a chance to ask if Elijah had done something or not.

She also slept, and the next day they returned, and when they returned, a video of them in that position went viral. It was taken by an angel, which made it look like they were kissing each other.

Everyone saw that, including Anya and Elijah. Anya tried to tell them it was fake, but no one trusted her. Her being his bed partner rumour spread like fire. Elijah asked her to calm down and said he would handle it. His reputation is at stake, and with him is his father's reputation as well. Anya could not understand anything at the time, and her phone was not working, so she agreed to Elijah's words. She was terrified of being labeled a whore of Elijah and Caliban's reactions; she can bear anything except his doubt about her character.

When Elijah was talking, Caliban came and brought her here.

Flashback ends here

"I swear it's not what it looks like! I don't know who did that, but I guess it's done by someone who wants to defame Elijah, that's why he or she used this opportunity." Anya said now she wasn't crying any more

Caliban stopped the car abruptly and took a deep breath. He got out of the car and started pacing around angrily. He wasn't dumb enough to not understand what was going on. He will kill Elijah as he gets a solid proof against him, and his game is over.

Here he was planning to take his grandmother to Anya's home to ask for Anya's hand in marriage. Her words made him think about it and he decided to marry her so he would be her sole guardian and she couldn't go away from him either. But in his nightmare, he thought something like this would happen. If his grandmother sees this video, it will be difficult for him to make her understand. It's not impossible, but still, he doesn't want Anya's image to be ruined in front of his grandmother.

"Caliban trusted me, right?" Anya asked Elena, who nodded her head in yes

After ordering his men to take information out about the video he dragged Anya out of the car and kissed her mindlessly. Anya didn't even bother to stop him; she let him have his way with her until he calmed down. After kissing her, he closed his eyes and touched their foreheads together.

"I love you so fucking much, Anya. I will kill anyone who will dare to come between us." Caliban said it, and Anya knows he mean it

She just hummed in response and hugged him back tightly.

Elena witnessed everything from the car and smiled as she looked at them.

Caliban made Anya sit beside him on the passenger seat and start driving. No one uttered a single word.

Caliban brought them to a restaurant first and ordered food for them Anya didn't want to eat, nor did Elena, but he forced them both to eat. After eating, he decided to drop them off at their home. They must be tired because of the trip.

Anya frowned, looking at the car in front of her house. If it's not theirs, then whose is it?

"Do you want me to go inside with you?" Caliban asked but Anya denied him

"You go and do your work; you came for me. By the way, how did you know this happened?" Anya asked him

"I have my ways." that's what he said

Anya and Elena both got out of the car and thanked Caliban.

Anya was glad that he treated Elena well. If he hadn't, she would have taken his class for real.

Anya was having a bad feeling about entering her house, but nevertheless she did so alone as Elena went to her home. She is tired as well!

All eyes snapped towards her when she entered; her parents were sitting there with a couple who were not someone she knew.

Her gut was screaming something was wrong, and her gut was proven correct when the women started talking.
