    Nonye – Episode 16

    ‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡
     
     A week after Victor’s visit, I just finished washing clothes on a serene Saturday morning when my phone rang, shattering the calm atmosphere. I picked up the call, expecting it to be one of my friends or family members. But instead, I was met with a menacing voice that sent chills down my spine.
    “It’s been two weeks now, and we are yet to hear from you,” the voice growled. “We could see you’ve taken us for granted. Watch your back anyway…”
    The line went dead, and I was left standing there, frozen in terror. I knew exactly who was behind the call – Ada, the person I had been trying to avoid. The threat was clear, and I knew I had to take it seriously.
    My mind racing, I felt a wave of fear wash over me. What had I gotten myself into? I thought about all the possible consequences of crossing Ada, and my heart sank. I was in grave danger, and I knew it.
    I stood there, my heart pounding in my chest, as I tried to process the threat. I felt like I was living in a nightmare, and I didn’t know how to wake up.
    I slowly put down the phone and took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. But my mind was racing with thoughts of Ada and what she might do to me.
    I stood there, frozen, the phone still clutched in my hand. My heart was racing, and my mind was reeling. I knew exactly who was on the other end of the call – Ada. The threat sent a chill down my spine, and I felt a wave of fear wash over me.
    “It’s been two weeks now, and we are yet to hear from you,” Ada’s menacing voice echoed in my mind. “We could see you’ve taken us for granted. Watch your back anyway…”
    I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. I had been expecting this call, knowing that Ada wouldn’t let things slide for too long. But hearing her voice, feeling the malice behind her words, still sent a shiver down my spine.
    I looked around the hostel, feeling a sense of unease. Was I really safe here? I thought about telling Rachel and Blessing about the call, but something held me back. Maybe it was fear, or maybe it was just a sense of uncertainty.
    I knew I had to do something, but I didn’t know what. Ada’s threat lingered in my mind, making me feel like I was walking on eggshells.
    Just then, Rachel walked in, breaking the silence. 
    “This one you are quiet like this, hope you are okay? 
    I hesitated for a moment, wondering if I should confide in Rachel about the call. But something held me back. I wasn’t ready to share this secret with anyone just yet.
    I forced a smile, trying to reassure her. “Yeah, everything’s fine. Just a bit stressed out, that’s all.”
    Rachel nodded, but I could tell she didn’t believe me. I knew I had to come up with a better excuse, but for now, I just hoped she wouldn’t push the issue further.
    The thought of calling my brother came to my mind, but I just don’t want to bother him, I thought of opening up to Evelyn maybe she can seek assistance or better still make peace with Ada, even though I’m yet to know what really transpired between them that makes Ada want to go any length to…
    Just then,something pop into my mind, the counselling I tore from the bulletin the other day, I searched for it and thankfully came across a number there….I chatted the number because calling wasn’t an option at that very moment….I booked an appointment for the counselling which was two days after.
    I thought of calling Evelyn and explaining to her in order to be more careful in her doings. I became scared and sad within me. I don’t need a soothsayer to tell me I’m behind my own problem. I’ve strayed from the right part and going back hasn’t been easy for me to do, I’m guilty within me and I find it very difficult to pray, anytime I thought of doing so I’m always restricted within me. I know I needed healing, I needed redemption……I remembered the word of the psal.PST that says “Before I was afflicted, o went astray” which was what I was experiencing……I had gone astray since I started hiding things from my parents, since I started following my own thought, since I decided to be wiser than my creator and here I am facing the consequences alone.
    My story is now in correlation with a story I read during my secondary school days which was titled “Had I known”.
    I was lost in thought that o forget I’m not alone, my silent and quietness I guessed must have drawn Rachael’s attention to me as she walked closer holding hand.
    ” Nonye, I know you aren’t OK but just trying to do, I won’t lie to you, what you are going through can’t be handled alone….she said and I was shocked to hear those words from her…”wait! Could she be aware? No! I can’t remember opening up for her or Blessing, but how come?” I thought within me.
    I looked at her and she nodded making me more confused…then she continued…” Don’t be surprise if I tell you we know all you have been going through, we are aware of what transpired between you, chuks and Steve…..she said I was more shocked
    ” Nonye” she bolded my shoulder….”I know this hasn’t been easy to handle and I know you decide to hide it from us due to the incident that happened earlier, trust me, we can’t hurt you…..we were so scared that night, we were threatened and made to leave you but our mind was with you throughout that night…..I know it hurts to know we were aware of chuks visiting that night, remember I told you if you were in our shoe you would have done the same…..By the way, we sought to help and that’s why we seeked Victor’s help to help us monitor you because we were afraid of chuks hurting you……she said and my eyes almost popped out hearing Victor’s name.
    “Vi..ct..or??? you mean…..”
    “Yes, she replied nodding in affirmation.
    “Although the whole Idea was Blessing’s doing, she had suggested we get someone to watch over you and Victor been a friend to us for sometime now, we approached him and tendered our request of which he agreed to and we were glad he was able to save you that day from Steve…..I know you are also wondering of our reactions that night he came visiting”…..she smiled and then continued….we actually planned his visit, he had informed us of meeting you in a cafe and I had suggested he visited, he knows our hostel already and there wasn’t anyone that directed him here…..you might haven’t seen him with us before and that’s because he’s disciplined and doesn’t go out anyhow”….she narrated
    I was already in tears at the moment, I couldn’t believe the people I’ve been hiding my dark secret from actually knows more than I  could imagine….I tried to talk but I lost my voice as my cry became audible, I couldn’t hide it.
    Blessing walked in at the moment and I’m sure Rachael must have signalled yo her about her revealing everything to me as she also contributed her part.
    “Sorry dear, all will be well…those guys think they can get whatever they desire because of what they belongs to but I’m sure God is more than them”….Blessing said 
    I braced up  and spoke……”what they want from me is beyond the relationship they claimed and it’s beyond my capacity which is what has been bordering me and weighing me down”…..I said and they looked at each other .
    “And what’s that? Rachel asked  concerned.
    “I was…….I was about to talk when we heard a loud knock on the door followed by murmurs.
    “Who is at the door?” Blessing asked
    “What’s happening?…what’s the noise about? Rachel asked rhetorically
    Blessing got up to answer the door and were welcomed by the three girls from the other room, one of them holding what looks like a paper.

    “Know this, little one…i won’t stop till I fill you up with my c+m, and if this bed is not broken by the time we’re done, then I’m not Slade” he whispered, biting her ear.

    He cupped her p+$$y, and his fingers easily slipped between her wet folds.

    Twilight cried out and bucked her hips, and that intensified the desire in his eyes into a storm, ravaging her mercilessly.

    Her eyes were still rolling, and she’s moving impatiently against his fingers, needing the penetration more than anything.

    It’s the closest thing to perfection slade has ever seen, and as much as he’d love to tease her like this all night just to watch her cry, he’s getting impatient too.

    His d+ck is straining hard against is pant, and it’s at the verge of tearing his zipper apart. 

    He had barely had time to rub her clî+ when Twilight spoke up…

    “I don’t need teasing, please f+ck me” she begged, taking his hand away before trying to pull off his trousers.

    He grabbed her hands, pinning them down to the bed with his right hand, then his left hand yanked his pants down his legs, freeing his ready cock.

    He angled her hips till his c+ck sat on her sickly wet entrance, and then slowly…, madly slow…he guided himself inside, clenching his teeth as inch by inch as she took him.

    “Gawd!” She gasped, digging her nails into her own palms as she watched it go inside of her till everything got buried, filling her up.

    She could feel him in her bellybutton region, and it’s not even a joke.

    Slade released her hands, and she held his arms with it immediately, steadying herself as he began thrusting gently.

    Their eyes met, and she took her hands from his arms to his shoulders, twisting them there as he thrusted slowly into her again, the rhythm sickeningly sweet.

    “F+ck… Killa” she moaned, biting her lip again, his piercings tickling her, sending ethereal sparks to her skull

    A raw gasp escaped her lips when he suddenly thrusted hard.

    She wasn’t able to take a breath before he slammed into her again, harder and deeper this time, stretching her out.

    “Gosh! ahh!” She nailed his back, her eyes watering again. They’re tears of pleasure, and her legs strained against the sheets.

    His lips came back to her chest, sucking her bre+sts as the hard thrusts became fast too.

    Her brain almost melted, and she had to leave him to hold the sheets as the hotness down there intensified.

    Her n+pples disappeared into his mouth, and he was pressing the br+àsts so primally that she got scared they might burst.

    Her bones caught fire, and as sweat cascaded down her backline, she received another hard thrust which made her mouth open with a wordless gasp.

    He still didn’t let go of her br+àsts, he f+çked her and sucked her n+pples at the same time, making her shake helplessly under him.

    His stamina got higher every f+çking minute,, but is it greedy that she’s wanting more?

    She wrapped her legs around his waist, and the thrusts went from hard to brutal, the headboard began squeaking.

    “Mmm…yes yes! Please” she shrieked as her world turned dark… Her eyes dwindled.

    Slade let go of her bre+sts, lifting himself up a bit.

    His fingers moved down her body meticulously, a slow drag that made her quiver under him__and he gently skimmed her v+gina.

    F+çking hell…she’s still so wet.

    Hot breaths poured out of his parted lips as he knelt in between her legs.

    She placed her leg over his shoulder before leaving line of kisses on the insides of her thighs,, biting and sucking on a spot dangerously close to her p+$$y.

    “Killa…” Her name ran out of her mouth again, and hell knows how much he has come to like it.

    His fingers circled her clî+, then gently part the flaps, collecting wetness as they go as deep as they possibly can.

    She’s swollen and tight, and her walls clenched around his digits with each trail and flutter.

    Her frame rocked forward, and the initial breach pilfered a moan from her…

    “Oh my gawd.” 

    “Lift your hips for me, little one” he hoarsely ordered, and she did just that.

    He inserted his d+ck back into her, and this time, there’s no stopping to his craziness.

    “Oh no!!” She cried out, grabbing the shaking headboard as he began wrecking her monstrously.

    His hand gripped her throat as he pounded into her, her right leg still on his shoulder, and the other one hooked across his bicep, spreading her wide.

    “You feel so f+çking good” he whispered, his voice shooting waves of pleasure through her.

    She could barely keep her eyes open as he pulled out, then he slammed back in, making her cry out again.

    “Gawd—ohh!!”

    “Scream as loud as you f+çking want. You’re gonna keep taking this dick until I pump you full” he growled against her pristine skin.

    Her walls fluttered around him, her eyes rolling back as her climax hit her suddenly, his filthy words triggering it.

    “That’s it, little one. Come on my C+ck.” he rumbled as her thighs began to shake. 

    His thrusts grew relentless, the sound of the headboard banging against the wall competing with Twilight’s sounds of pleasure.

    They hardly heard the loud sound that occurred seconds before they dropped several inches as the bedframe actually broke.

    Slade didn’t stop ramming into her.

    He couldn’t.

    Otherworldly heat pivoted through him as his balls slapped her entrance repeatedly fast.

    “Oh.. Killa…” She gasped as he pushed into her again, pressing his forehead against hers.

    “Kils” her small lips shook.

    “C+m…” He whispered, thrusting into her one last time.

    Twilight came for the second time, a tsunami-level orgasm, and this time, Slade came with her, releasing all of the hotness inside of her.

    Warm breaths escaped her nostrils, but he just smirked like he’s not the one who just f+çked her brains out.

    “We both needed it, we needed that sweet little p+$$y to make a mess on me, didn’t we?” he whispered.

    Oh, Christ.

    If there’s an audition for the most dirty-mouthed man in the world, this man would win, no doubt.

    Her eyes closed, and she slept off, not minding the broken bedframe.

    Slade threw on his pants and went to the bathroom to get a new white towel which he soaked in water.

    He brought it back to her in bed and began cleaning her p+$$y, wiping her thighs and everywhere wet.

    She didn’t even move or change position throughout, and that made him wonder when she suddenly trusted him this much.

    Is it because she found out he’s not the midnight killer? Or because of the $€× they just had?

    Her naivety almost made him roll eyes, but he locked up as he rounded up the cleaning.

    He covered her naked body with his duvet, and she finally changed position, her hair covering half of her face in the process.

    He brought an hand to her face and nearly removed the hair, but then he noticed she’s still wearing one earring. Her second ear is empty.

    He stood and got the second earring from beside his piano.

    As usual, it burned his palm, but he didn’t flinch till he got to her and inserted it into her second ear.

    His burnt palm healed immediately, and he entered the bathroom to clean up too.

    *

    NEXT MORNING*

    A slow yawn was the first thing to leave Twilight’s mouth when she woke up, and immediately the memories of last night invaded her head, she sat up.

    She saw Slade standing beside the window, snapping pictures of ravens in the sky with his camera.

    She got down from the bed, but then her nakedness glared, so she quickly took the duvet and wrapped it around herself.

    Strangely, it doesn’t feel sticky between her thighs. He must have cleaned her up.

    “Good.. morning, Mr. Luther” she greeted, and he turned back to face her swiftly.

    “Mr. Luther?”

    “I’ll call you whatever I feel like whenever we’re alone” she shrugged.

    “That one is out of it” he replied, sounding strict as he went to his wardrobe to get her a shirt.

    She scoffed secretly.

    She took the black shirt from him and put it on. As expected, it reached her knees.

    “I guess I’ll have to keep this one forever too. You can’t wear something I’ve put on” she said.

    “The pearl earring and necklace you’re wearing, what are they made of?” He asked, ignoring her words.

    “This?” She blinked, touching the choker pearl on her neck.

    “I dunno, it was my mama who gifted them to me, she said it’d protect me from evil. But too bad, I lost the second earring” she said, touching her second ear.

    “How is it back?” She blinked in shock.

    “Go back to your room” he told her.

    “Are you that eager to send your slave away?” She looked up.

    “Then would you rather I f+ck you again? In your mouth this time” he replied, and she stepped back.

    “I’ll…see you in class then” she muttered, leaving the attic immediately.

    Slade dropped the camera, and his eyes darted to the broken bed.

    He got his phone and dialled Uriel’s line.

    “Good morning” Uriel picked with greetings.

    “Get me a new bed, wider than the former one, and a new bedframe” he said.

    “Why?” 

    “And what’s gonna happen after I tell you why?” Slade replied, staring at the hairband on his wrist.

    “I’m sorry, I’ll get them before the end of today, but have you heard what’s going on in the castle?” Uriel asked.

    “Anything?” 

    “Dr. Kali, she has been missing from the infirmary since last night” Uriel reported.

    “The kidnappers?” Slade’s brows pulled impossibly close.

    “I don’t think so. Her phone is still on, and the school management is currently tracking it.” Uriel replied.

    Slade hung up, his back muscles flexing as he turned back to the window.

    *

    Twilight peeped elevator, making sure the students are not looking at that direction before sneaking out.

    She hid behind the stairs, thinking of how to come out without gaining suspicions with the shirt she’s wearing.

    “I’m here for you” someone suddenly said behind her, and she jumped, turning around to see Molly.

    She’s holding a folded black skirt and a hoodie.

    “Here, put them on, and don’t ask questions… I saw you entering the elevator last night, and I decided to prepare this for you” she said.

    “Do you even sleep? Why are you always up at night?” Twilight replied suspiciously.

    “I don’t sleep… I have a sickness actually, and sleeping at night has been hard for me since I was fifteen” Molly explained.

    “And why are you suddenly acting kind? You’re the same girl who slandered me on the homepage last week” Twilight tilted her head.

    “Don’t get it twisted. I’m only doing this to get on Slade’s good side since that’s what my parents want. Tell Slade I helped you, ok?” Molly winked and left.

    Twilight stared at the clothes shortly before finally putting them on.

    She held Slade’s shirt in hand as she climbed the stairs, avoiding eyes till she got to her room and slammed the door shut.

    “You’ve gone to hookup again, how foolish” Echo’s voice instantly came from her bed.

    “Echo” Twilight swallowed, sighting her.

    “I saw how you sneaked out last night, you spent the night with him again? Is that how much you can’t control yourself?” Echo said.

    “Don’t talk to me like that if you don’t know the details” Twilight replied, walking to her.

    “I’m your bestie, if I don’t talk to you, who’d do it? You’re being foolish and I’m already feeling sorry for you. What if you get pregnant? Your parents are so poor that you can’t even afford more than three bras, and…

    Twilight already slapped Echo before she could finish, and Echo gasped shockingly.

    “If you’re gonna talk about me sleeping with Prof. Slade, then do that, don’t mention my parents. Yes we’re poor, and I only have three bras, I’m guessing you counted my panties too” Twilight said.

    Echo raised her hand to return the slap, but that was when Rihannon and Damien came in.

    “Nah…that’s not advisable cos I’ll outright slap you back” Damien said.

    Echo dropped her hand and grabbed her shoulder bag, then she stormed out of the room.

    “I don’t like her” Rihannon said.

    “I slapped her first” Twilight explained.

    “So what? I’m sure she said something to deserve that” Damien replied, and Twilight smiled.

    “C’mon, dress up and let’s go outside. The castle is hot right now” Rihannon said.

    “Why?” Twilight frowned.

    “Dr. Kali is missing” Damien broke the news, and her eyes widened.

    “What!”

    *

    GREG’S COTTAGE*

    Timothy’s car made a rough stop, and he literally barged into the cottage.

    He met Greg coming out of his bedroom.

    “Timothy?”

    “Slade found the girl,, but that strong-headed son of mine has refused to kill her” Timothy said breathlessly.

    “Is that why you came running this early in the morning?” Greg replied.

    “Where else would I go? You started everything, Greg” Timothy replied, and Greg sighed.

    FLASHBACK, 27 YRS AGO*

    Timothy stood in front of the cottage, shaking like a leaf in storm as Stella’s cry poured out of it.

    Following Greg’s suggestion, they brought Stella here to deliver her babies, and now Greg is inside with her.

    “Arggghhhhh!!!!!” Stella’s labour screams came out again, and Timothy clasped his palms together, shaking more.

    “I promise to start going to the catholic if she survives. The babies might die but I just want Stella to survive” he said, looking up at the crescent moon in the sky.

    “Arggghhh!!!!” Stella’s screams came again, but that was followed by the cry of a baby.

    “Yes!” Timothy smiled, jumping in happiness.

    He only waited few more minutes before more baby cries filled the cottage, then Greg came out to him.

    “She delivered successfully. I’ll clean the babies up and let you see them” he said.

    “What about Stella herself?” Timothy asked.

    Greg didn’t reply before going back inside, and Timothy sighed.

    An hour later, he was called in to see the triplets, and tears welled up in his eyes as he watched them in their individual cots.

    “He’s the first to come out” Greg said, pointing at the only girl.

    “That’s Aimee” Timothy sniffled.

    “He’s the second” Greg pointed at the second one who’s a boy.

    “That’s Elijah” Timothy nodded.

    “And he’s the last” Greg pointed at the second boy.

    “That’s… Slade” Stella said weakly from her bed.

    “I’m afraid he might not survive this curse. Aimee and Elijah escaped narrowly, so they can live normally if I make infinity rings for them, but as for him…” Greg looked at Slade who’s the smallest.

    “Make infinity ring for him too” Timothy said.

    “Infinity ring can only protect him for a certain amount of time, but he needs a moonslave to break his curse completely” Greg explained.

    “Moonslave?” Timothy raised his lids.

    “Yes. I’ll perform a lunar ritual on the next full moon. I’ll ask the moon clan for a slave, and I’m sure they’ll provide. He only has to kill the slave once they meet” Greg replied.

    BACK TO THE PRESENT*

    “You said it yourself, he must kill her once they meet. They’ve met close to a month now” Timothy said.

    “If he’s not willing to kill her,then he’s willing to die. The ring will soon stop working for him” Greg said.

    “You know he can’t die! I need him for my establishments! If he dies, I’m finished! Can’t you do something like a spell to control him? Make him kill her” Timothy said.

    “I can only control him through the ring on his finger, but I’m not sure if it’d work. His mind is the strongest of all the triplets, so messing with it is hard” Greg said.

    “Just try” Timothy held Greg’s hand.

    “Please”

    *

    UOG*

    The news of Dr. Kali’s disappearance filled the university, and classes were paused as students won’t stop talking about it.

    A search party is out to track her phone location though, so there’s tension in the air.

    Lord Vann has been running around with Lorraine, trying to supervise the search.

    Students are scattered around the castle, whispering in groups.

    Tamlin came out of the rich tower with Ruslan, his eyes reddish as a result of the smokes he had last night.

    The wounds on his forehead and arms are still plastered, and Ruslan insisted for him to stay indoors, but he wouldn’t do that.

    He was planning to meet Dr. Kali for the infinity ring, but now that she’s missing, there has to be another way 

    Maybe if he talks to his mother Lorraine.

    His thoughts were cut short when he suddenly saw Twilight.

    She’s in front of the second garden with Rihannon, Damien and several other students, chatting.

    He walked briskly to her, pulled her out of the bunch and hugged her before she knew it.

    Her eyes widened, and every student in the area gasped.

    Ruslan left immediately.

    Twilight’s brain felt like it reloaded instantly, and she gasped too.

    Throughout last night in Slade’s bed, Tamlin didn’t cross her mind at all. Not even for once.

    It’s like his face was sieved away from her memories, and now it just returned.

    She broke the hug quickly, and Tamlin held her face.

    “I missed you” he said.

    “How are your…wounds?” She asked awkwardly.

    “It doesn’t matter, you’re here now” he replied, hugging her again.

    Rihannon and Damien cleared their throats, shifting away from them.

    That same moment, Slade and Uriel walked past the garden, and immediately his eyes met with Twilight’s, she broke the hug.

    Slade turned a blind eye to them as he left the area.

    “Eat breakfast with me” Tamlin pulled Twilight.

    “I don’t think I can eat till Dr. Kali is found” she replied.

    “Then I’ll just stay here with you” he smiled, and she blinked.

    *

    IMOGEN’S ROOM*

    Imogen is sitting in bed, preparing to smoke when the door opened, and Ren entered.

    “Where’s my girlfriend?” He asked.

    “Here!” Posey shouted from inside the bathroom.

    “The hell? Be quick, my legs are weary from waiting…” He said, chuckling at Imogen before leaving the room.

    Imogen smiled, and Posey came out of the bathroom n+kedly.

    She’s actually preparing to go on a date with Ren.

    “Is it just me? Ren is getting hotter these days” Imogen winked.

    “Hey hey…don’t go there. It’s enough that I allow you to kiss me whenever we share drugs on the tongue. Ren is off-limits, just keep crushing on your Slade” Posey snapped.

    “Calm your titties, girl. No one is taking him, geez!” Imogen rolled eyes and lightened her pot, smoking as she climbed the bed.

    She watched Posey dress up, and after twenty minutes of dolling herself up, Posey left the room.

    Imogen picked up her phone and saw Ruslan’s annoying text on her screen.

    Actually, Ruslan got a new phone already, so the old one is still with her 

    She was laughing as she read his text.

    Dog 3: Are you free this afternoon for lunch?

    “Idiot” she muttered, throwing the phone off and ignoring the text.

    She took the old phone and slid into Echo’s DM.

    Time to mess with her again.

    *

    LIBRARY*

    Since classes have been paused, Echo came to the library to cool off, trying to read books just like Twilight does, but she just can’t get into it.

    Now she thinks Twilight doesn’t deserve the brain she has. Twilight assimilates faster than any student in this school, and she’s envious of that.

    She got her phone and checked her face on the screen. It’s not red anymore from the slap, so she nodded.

    She’d just wait till Twilight will apologize. She’s the one at fault anyways, always giving herself to Slade like a slave.

    She was about to drop the phone when it dinged.

    Her eyes widened when she saw Ruslan’s text.

    She was smiling as she opened it, reading with a racing heart.

    Gawd…she’s so f+çking obsessed with this guy.

    Ruslan: Can I have a picture of your n+pples? Just your nîpples… Please.

    Echo: Sure.

    She stood and packed her books, leaving the library and entering a washroom.

    *

    INFIRMARY*

    Slade and Uriel entered together with plans to search for any odd thing about Dr. Kali’s disappearance, but instantly, Slade felt something.

    A dark energy like his own is oozing out of the wall behind him.

    He easily entered the wall, and Uriel’s eyes widened, but almost immediately, Slade came out of the wall, holding Elijah’s hair.

    He proceeded to the other side of the wall, slamming Elijah on the stones.

    “Damn!” Elijah gnarled, releasing himself before punching Slade in the face.

    The punch felt like nothing cos Slade elbowed him on the chin and returned the blow to his jaw instinctively.

    Elijah made the ground below Slade sink, but Slade jumped over cleanly, pushing Elijah forward with his leg.

    Elijah almost fell in, but another person entered the infirmary, pulling him away from the hole edge.

    It’s Aimee.

    “It’s my first time seeing the cursed triplets together” Uriel smiled.

    “Shut up! They were at the verge of destroying this building and you couldn’t stop them?” Aimee scowled.

    “Stop them with what? I don’t own a ring so they’d practically tear me apart” Uriel said plainly.

    “Do they allow just anyone into the castle these days?” Slade said, obviously ridiculing Aimee and Elijah.

    “Oh brother, with this ring, we can enter anywhere. Making the doormen open the gate was a piece of cake” Elijah said.

    “I’d prefer if you don’t talk to me throughout your limited stay here” Slade replied harshly.

    “Elijah is not your rival, he has no plans to kill your moonslave” Aimee said.

    “You believe this mongrel? His special ability is telling lies” Slade glared poisonously, his eyes beaming.

    “If I wanted to kill your moonslave, I wouldn’t save her when Lorraine tried to hang her at the fortress one month ago” Elijah said, and Slade raised his lids.

    “You said last night was your first time in town after you left at age 5” Aimee said.

    “That was a lie, I’ve been in town since the beginning of this year” Elijah replied.

    “Lies is your livelihood, i’d rather go back to the island than believe any word that comes out of your f+çking mouth” Slade sneered.

    “Elijah is not the rival, the real rival is someone else we don’t know.” Aimee said.

    “Why the hell are you here?” Slade directed the question at Elijah.

    “Dr. Kali is dead, and the school will be needing a new doctor, I’m here to fill in” Elijah said freely.

    “When did you become an herbal doctor?” Aimee asked.

    “I’ve been learning one or two, and I’ve got connections with Lord Vann” Elijah replied gleefully.

    “And how did you know Dr. Kali is dead?” Slade turned.

    “C’mon brother… You don’t feel the vibes of sorrow in here?” Elijah shrugged.

    Before Slade could speak, they heard screams from students outside, and they all rushed out.

    “F+ck!” Uriel voiced.

    Dr. Kali’s body has been found, but she’s dead. Her legs got condemned completely by the car.

    She died horribly, and as her body was brought inside, students began crying.

    * They said it’s an accident.

    * Accident? How did it happen?

    * Oh… Dr. Kali…

    * This is so sad!!!

    Lord Vann and Lorraine couldn’t even close their mouths as they watched.

    “That’s gory” Elijah smiled.

    “Extraordinarily” Aimee added.

    Slade choose to keep quiet, but then eyes caught Twilight who’s crying so much in the middle of students.

    She obviously got the biggest hit cos this is the second person she’d be losing since she came to this school.

    First was Tanya, and now Dr. Kali.

    She suddenly rushed out of the crowd, and Slade followed.

    He trailed her quietly till she entered the first garden and squatted under a peach tree, crying.

    Slade stood at the garden entrance, watching her emotionlessly.

    Her tears are pouring profusely, and her nose is even running.

    Although, Slade’s eyes held no pity, but something feels odd.

    Tears excite him__seeing people cry in sorrow and pains make his inner demons happy.

    He should be feeling the inner joy by now. He should be wanting to do things to make her cry more, but why is he wanting to console her?

    Everything inside him right now wants to go give her a hug.

    He began walking to her, slowly and calculatedly, but after he took the fifth step, he felt a sudden slam on his chest, making him stop.

    His jaw ticked, he brought a palm to his chest to check.

    The slam came again, and his eyes shone furiously as he felt the beat.

    His heart__his bîtchy frozen heart.

    That motherf+cker is beating for the first time since he was born.

    How dare it???

    Finn and Lisa walked out of the hospital together but suddenly Lisa started walking ahead of him. Finn also try to keep up with her fast pace.

    “Hey why are you suddenly walking so fast” Finn said and blocked her by standing right in the front of her.

    Lisa rolled her eyes as she stare at him

    “I need to go home, I just wanna leave you” Lisa glared

    “Hey cutie why are you being so mean and acting this way today, you look mean, are you upset?” Finn asked and Lisa scoffed

    “Are you stupid or what huh?, Why were you eating sandwich when you know you are allergic to it?, Are you planning to kill yourself huh, do you wanna die?” Lisa yelled

    “I was… I couldn’t think that moment, I couldn’t bear to see her sad so I….” Finn said

    Lisa interrupted him

    “You ate it because hazel gave it to you?” Lisa asked 

    It’s shows from her voice she is hurt.

    “Does he love her so much that he ate something he is allergic to?” She thought

    “I… Collected it from her, I….. But hold on …. How come you are aware I’m allergic to sandwich” Finn asked

    “This idiot, how can I tell you I know all your allergies, your likes and dislikes, what you eat and don’t” Lisa said inwardly.

    “I don’t have to explain myself, a common thank you should do” Lisa muttered and made to walk out but Finn held her hand.

    Lisa glared at him immediately

    “What is it?” She asked

    “You are upset cutie and I don’t want to see you being upset, so let go get ice cream in other for you to cool down” Finn said and Lisa rolled her eyes

    “I’m not interested” she said

    Lisa made to get free from his grip but Finn pulled her along with him

    “Common cutie, you can’t stay mad at me, it’s hurts to see you mad at me”Finn said while pulling her along

    “Let go of me Finn, I’m not interested in your ice cream” Lisa yelled.

    Finn stopped pulling her along with him and looked back to see the look on her face, Lisa was glaring so hard at him and he wonder where cute Lisa

    “You look dangerous right now but you are still my cute Lisa, you are coming with me cutie “Finn said

    Lisa tried her best to hide the fact she is blushing so hard when he called her his cute Lisa, she is blushing a little but she maintained the cold look.

    She is Audrey’s childhood friend afterall, she has learnt a lot from her.

    She was still blushing that she didn’t noticed when Finn let go of her hand and carried her in a bridal style.

    “Now you have no choice that to me with me Lisa “Finn said and Lisa snapped out of her thoughts

    She noticed Finn carrying her 

    “Let go of me or I will scream Finn”she said

    “You can scream all you want but you are definitely coming with me”Finn winked and Lisa could not say anything.

    Finn took that as a yes and walked to the nearest ice cream shop.

    He dropped her just immediately they got to a ice cream small shop.

    His phone beeped.

    He saw a missed call from their manager.

    He knew something might be up.

    “I need to take a call , please Lisa just stay here and you can just order the ice cream, give me, just 2 minutes I will be back”He said

    “whatever “Lisa said and Finn smiled

    He walked a bit away from her before calling his manager.

    While talking on phone , Lisa could not help but look at him

    “Is he your boyfriend miss?, You seem to love him a lot”The ice cream man said

    “Huh???,No he is just a friend “Lisa said

    “But you love him, it’s written all over you”The ice cream seller said

    “I….. Is it so obvious “Lisa asked back

    “I can’t say, he might not notice since he does not stare at you the same way yet, but I noticed due to the fact my wife always stare at me the same way” The ice cream seller said

    Lisa face fell immediately she heard Finn doesn’t look at her the way she does.

    “Don’t be sad miss, if you are meant to be, things will work out” The ice cream seller said and Lisa forced a smile.

    “Thanks sir” She said

    “Uhmm can I get vanilla ice cream” Lisa said and the ice cream seller started preparing it for her immediately.

    Few minutes later he handed it over to her.

    “A sweet chocolate ice cream for him” she said while drinking hers.

    Immediately she ordered for it , Finn walked back to her.

    “You are drinking your ice cream without waiting for me” Finn said and Lisa rolled her eyes 

    “Well it’s good you haven’t ordered mine, I don’t take vanilla, strawberry or mint , I take….. Finn said

    The ice cream seller interrupted immediately

    “Here is your sweet chocolate ice cream ma’am”

    Lisa looked at the ice cream seller.

    “huh it’s not mine, it’s his”She said while drinking her ice cream

    Finn looked at her a bit before collecting the ice cream from the seller.

    He paid for it and then turned back to look at Lisa

    “You are also aware I don’t take other flavours but chocolate” Finn said and Lisa almost chocked

    “Huh?, Is it that so?, Well I just guessed” she lied and Finn nod slowly.

    He finds it a bit amusing, first the sandwich and now this.

    “Let leave” Lisa said and made to walk away but Finn voice stopped her

    “Wait!”

    “What is the problem now, did he find it weird” Lisa thought inwardly.

    Finn walked right to her front and then smiled at her before wiping off the ice cream on her lips

    “You eat like a baby cutie” Finn smiled.

    “What the fuck is he doing to me!!!, Why is he smiling so much, he is making my heart flutter so much, I should arrest him for this” Lisa thought inwardly

    “You know I’m right” Finn winked and Lisa blinked thrice .

    “Don’t touch my lips again you idiot” she said and walked away in a hurry 

    “F+ck she is so cute” Finn mumbled

    He noticed she is not looking back at once as she continue to walk. 

    “Hey hey wait up cutie, but you do really look cute while eating” Finn shouted as he walk towards her.

    Meanwhile Lisa could not stop blushing

    “Damn my stupid heart” she mumbled as she touch her chest.

    .

    .

    .

    A girl putting on a white hoodie with her white hair looking like sliver keep on running as some huge men keep running after her.

    She run faster with a smirk on her face and the keep on running after her.

    Everything she is putting on is pure white and what made it more cool is her white hair.

    She stopped running when a car stopped right at her front and the huge men right at her back.

    She rolled her immediately

    “Got you bitch” One of the huge men said

    They are actually six in numbers.

    A man looking so dangerous came out from the car while smoking so dangerously.

    But with a gun and two huge men.

    It’s so quiet around there but there is a restaurant close by but still a bit distanced.

    Jerry who have been following Audrey and Enthan around but it’s seems he lost them also happened to pass by .

    He was so lost in thinking that he didn’t know when he got to the middle of what is going on.

    He almost bump into the girl in white hoodie but she was fast enough to avoid it and that made Jerry fall.

    Jerry fell and he snapped out of his thoughts

    “F+ck!!! He cursed while getting up on his feet.

    He looked around seeing huge men and the one looking so dangerous.

    He swallowed hard and decided to move back but her voice stopped him

    “Don’t you dare try to bump into me you dumb human “,she said coldly

    Jerry looked at her 

    “Looks like the stupid girl got herself someone to save her this time “One of the huge men said and the rest laughed

    “Don’t f+cking tell me I’m in this mess again, I can’t f+cking fight”Jerry mumbled to himself.

    Obviously getting scared already

    The girl noticed and rolled her eyes.

    “You should leave, or you might faint”The girl said

    “No one dare leaves from here, I will decided if anyone is leaving or not”The dangerous man said

    “Oh f+ck you wanna play? “The girl rolled her eyes

    “No I just wanna talk to you, I heard you are new to this place, and you have been stopping my men to do their jobs every night”The dangerous man said

    Jerry just stood looking so speechless looking at the fearless girl who is acting so much like Audrey.

    “Doing their jobs?, So raping is now a job , oh gosh humans are so dumb”she said

    “I have other things to do you know, I don’t wanna waste my time here”she said

    The dangerous man smirked

    “you are so dead “he glared

    “No you will be having a difficult time today fool, I will make the world know who you are”She said

    The dangerous man got more angry and made to shot her but couldn’t.

    “Let just get this done with”she said

    She looked at the huge men and her eyes turned sliver and blue.

    The huge men started fighting eachother and the girl smiled satisfactory.

    “it’s worked “she grinned

    Jerry looked the huge men fighting and scoffed.

    “Are they nuts?, I think something is wrong with them”Jerry said and the girl looked at Jerry a bit.

    “you haven’t fainted yet”she said and Jerry scoffed at her.

    He couldn’t see her face clearly because of the hoodie she is putting on but there is something he definitely noticed about her

    She is f+cking cute and pretty with her white hair.

    “And why will I faint” he suddenly ask back

    “Oh” she mumbled back and faced the dangerous man who is busy trying to talk to the huge men

    “F+ck this is boring” she said and clapped.

    The men stopped fighting.

    “Now do the needful dummies” she said and one of the huge men bright our his phone and went live 

    The dangerous man started confessing to his crimes

    The girl smiled

    “Game successful” she said and started walking away.

    She took two steps and teleported away immediately.

    Jerry saw that and fainted.

    The girl teleported back

    “F+ck!!!, Now I have to wipe his memory, I thought he said he won’t faint” she said wispered some spell.

    She wiped Jerry memory and the look at the goons.

    The police siren could be heard from distance

    “F+ck!!, So soon” she said and made to teleport but her powers failed

    “Oh no no no not now” she said frustratily

    She tried serval times but it’s failed

    She could hear the siren getting closer.

    She breathe in and out and then it’s worked

    She was able to teleport

    …… She fell on huge bed right in her room

    She looked around to be confirm it’s really her room.

    “Gosh thank goodness I didn’t fall in mom’s bedroom” she said.

    “I need to change this dress for she might nag all day once she find out I went out” she saw still talking to herself when her door opened and her mom stepped in with a angry look.

    “Odessa haven’t I warn you not to step out of this house huh” The woman looking in her late 30 shouted

    “I’m not a prisoner mom, you can’t lock me in here forever” Odessa said

    “Going out there is not good for you and you might get killed don’t you get it, your powers always misbehave, if it’s was left to me, I will cut that white hair of yours so you can live a normal life” The woman yelled

    “You have no right to do that miss snow and you know the consequences of you cutting my white hair, I’m going to fucking die, that same death you are so scared of” Odessa yelled back

    “What have gotten into you huh, I’m your mom and I want the best for you” Mrs snow yelled

    “I lost your dad and your grandma, I don’t want to loose you too Odessa” she said

    “Grandma told you , you are not to decide my fate, do you think maleficent won’t find me if you keep me locked up in this mansion, have you forgotten who she is huh, she is a witch , a evil one at that who killed my grandma in cold blood due to the fact she is a white hair white who has the same power as saviour Daina, she does not want grandma helping the new saviour and that why she killed granny, but she could not get what she want and that is the white hair because she is evil, it’s was passed to me instead mom, so I have to go out there, not just out there, I have to attend SILENTITUM COLLEGE and go assist the new saviour “Odessa said

    “And how are you going to do that, that cursed power in you, you can’t control it “Mrs snow yelled

    “You just don’t want me to go Mom, granny told us before the died that a great woman will put everyone with powers through once the saviour unlock Gaia and Gaia has been unlocked. The supernatural beings has started showing up and you know the evil ones will always show up mom, I have to go to that school because that is my fate, it’s my destiny to fight for the humans and our clan”Odessa said

    “Definitely not my clan, I lost my husband and mom because of that stupid clan”Mrs snow shook her head in tears.

    “you know maleficent did it mom, so don’t blame the clan or saviour “Odessa said

    “I won’t let you leave, you know the seer said it’s possible your fate won’t end well in this way, you might die Odessa, I don’t want to loose you “she said in tears.

    “I have the power of Dania, which means I know extacly what is going on now, Charlotte, Winnie, hazel are now together trying to figure out a way to save Gaia but their powers can’t, i can only help a little but if I’m with them right now, I’m sure we will do something, and Catherine does not know who she is yet, her twin is not here yet also mom, I have to help, I can’t let maleficent win, the saviour can’t die “Odessa wept

    “You won’t be leaving the house tonight “Mrs snow said

    “if anything goes wrong with Gaia tonight mom, I won’t forgive you, never ever and guess what, I will surely start attending that school tomorrow and you won’t be able to stop me with your stupid magic tricks”she said

    “I want to see how you get out of the house with your messed up power”Mrs snow said and walked out of her room.

    The wind shut the door and window , everything in her room that will lead her outside the house got shut.

    “F+ck, I’m sure she is doing this, I won’t be able to go out” Odessa said

    “I hope they figure out a way to save Gaia fro the harm that want to befall her tonight” Odessa wispered

    “F+ck I need to do something, I can’t sit here” she said and started trying to teleport but her powers have gone weak due the spell her mom casted.

    “What, what should I do?” She mumbled.

    After thinking for a while , her eyes widened.

    “Ophelia!!!, But how the hell can I summon her inside my room” Odessa groaned.

    “*You are a white hair witch , you can do anything if it’s in the good, promise me you will always stand by the saviour,you can ask Ophelia for help,she owe me a lot and since you have my white hair braid,you will be able to recognize you*” she remembered her granny last words to her

    “I have to try, I just have to, I promised granny” Odessa said

    She closed her eyes tightly and her hair started glowing.

    She begin to whisper some spell to summon Ophelia right in her room.

    She spell her mom casted is also preventing her a lot.

    She got weak and spit our blood.

    “No no I can’t get weak, I can’t” she said and begin to say the spells again. 

    “Astra kalindi, zha’thikka shay

    Nyxoria, vha’lora, kha’rilka nay

    Thorneira, lyraea, zhilakka vay

    Kalimdor, aethon, nyktos say

    Aethon, nyktos, astra kalimdor

    Zhilakka, vha’kara, nyxoria val

    Kha’rilka, thorneira, astra kal”

    Translation:

    “Call of the stars, summon the night

    Mystic powers, hear my witch’s plight

    Thorneira’s magic, Lyraea’s might

    Kalimdor’s fire, Aethon’s light

    “Ophelia hear my…. Ca…

    Odessa spit our blood again, she is really getting weaker.

    “I need to save them” she cried and started all from the beginning again.

    .

    .

    .

    Meanwhile in a restaurant.

    Enthan and Audrey are busy sitting, Audrey is busy looking at the menu while Ethan stare at her.

    “Why is it that just spicy foods are in this damb menu” Audrey thought

    “I’m so hungry Audrey, you have been on that menu for 1hr,I love spicy food, just order it” Enthan said and Audrey dropped the menu

    “You love spicy food?, Oh really?, Wow me too” she lied and Enthan scoffed inwardly 

    “Well order it already”Enthan grinned

    Audrey bit her lips and order for two spicy noodles and chicken.

    It’s was served , she could only bit her lips.

    “Common eat” Enthan said while picking up the juice they severed

    “Huh I… I will watch you ear first” she said and Enthan laughed inwardly

    “Okay” he said and started eating

    “Why the f+ck is Gaia so quiet” she said inwardly.

    “Who is Gaia” Enthan suddenly asked

    “Huh”? Audrey mumbled

    “Thought you said something” Enthan said and Audrey shook her head

    She was about to reply when Enthan received a message from godfather.

    “I… I have to go now, we will go on a date next time” he said.

    “Something came up? “Audrey asked.

    Enthan nod slowly and Audrey smiled

    “it’s fine, since we can go next time “Audrey said.

    “it’s late, let me take you home”Enthan said.

    “No I have to eat this before leaving “she said and Enthan smiled

    His phone beeped again 

    “I have to go now”he said with a smile.

    “Stop smiling and just leave”Audrey said and Enthan bend down to her level as if he wants to kiss her.

    Audrey eye want wide as he moved close

    “Are you afraid you might fall so hard”he teased

    “Get away pest “she said pushing his head away.

    Enthan smiled and touch her hair before walking away

    “why is he acting so weird”she mumbled to herself

    “*It’s you who is acting so weird but I won’t blame you though, he is looking so hot*”Gaia said

    “*I thought you died, you didn’t talk to me at all*”Audrey replied inwardly

    “*He can hear me and I don’t know the reason why he can, I was quiet due to the fact he was still around , now that is not, I can talk all I want*”Gaia said

    “*Well I love it when you are quiet, you talk so much*”Audrey said

    “*Just tell me you miss me, I can feel it*”Gaia said

    “*In your wild dreams*”Audrey rolled her eyes

    “*I’m sure you will tell me you love me soon*”he said

    “*You dream so much*”Audrey laughed.

    .

    .

    .

    Later around 8pm

    Audrey is on her way to her house, infact she is right in her street and she is busy in a call with Lisa.

    “Get home soon Audrey, I have a lot to tell you”Lisa gigged over the phone

    “you just wanna tell me about your date with Finn”Audrey rolled her eyes 

    “it’s not actually a date but it’s looked like it” Lisa blushed over the phone

    “I’m almost home Lisa, you can tell me all about your date” Audrey said

    “But I just can’t wait, I just ….. Lisa was still talking when Gaia suddenly talk.

    “*I can feel a dark energy around us Audrey and it’s definitely not a good one*”Gaia said

    “I will be home soon Lisa”Audrey said immediately and end the call.

    Immediately she said that Jovita showed up right in the front of her.

    “*Her???, She got more stronger Audrey, my powers feel so intimated by her sight*”Gaia said

    “*What???*”Audrey said

    “I guess that thing in you must have told you she can’t defeat me right”Jovita smirked

    “F+ck I don’t know you will turn out to be a evil pest “Audrey groaned

    “Now I will keep that mouth of yours shut “Jovita yelled and immediately start making use of her dark powers.

    She threw Audrey away miles away from her.

    Audrey tried to get up but she keep on coughing out blood.

    “*I’m sorry Audrey, I feel so weak right now, I don’t know how”Gaia said weakly.

    “common get up I’m not fine with that thing in you yet “Jovita said and used her powers to raise Audrey up.

    She sent 10 dark poisonous claws into her stomach and Audrey coughed out blood.

    She hit Audrey hardly on the wall.

    “*I can…… t….. let her kill me so…. easily…. F+ck I can’t defeat her, you have to unlock her Audrey “Gaia said weakly.

    But Audrey is already so weak.

    Jovita laughed out evily

    “Now let me finish you up savour Gaia” she laughed evily raising up weak Audrey up on her feet again.

    “Die!!!!!!!” She screamed and the dark powers start getting stronger…….. As she send a great dark claws towards Audrey again…………….

    THEME: His slave

     © Isabella Library 

        ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

           Shawn was doing everything possible to get Sofia free from Sly. He contacted some of the highest authorities, and they all gave him a positive answer, saying they would get back to him. He fell loose on his office chair, relieved a little.

    He also assigned his men to get more information about what happened, and they all got busy. “Hang in there, Sofia, just a little longer, and I will get you out of there,” he said, determination etched on his face.

    Meanwhile, Sofia came to school, escorted by Sly’s men. Everyone was staring at her, and Mabel saw her and tried to approach her. But she was stopped by Sly’s men. Sofia stared sadly at Mabel, and she suddenly understood that all wasn’t well with her.

    During lunch break, Sofia went to the restroom, and the men secured the area. She stared at herself in the mirror, sobbing as she brought out a sharp blade from her bag. 

      “Maybe ending my life will stop all this misery around me. I can’t take this anymore,” she sobbed. “Will you ever come for me, Shawn, or have you forgotten about me already?” she sniffed, staring at the blade. She was about to cut her wrist when suddenly a hand grabbed her. She turned to see it was Mabel.

    “What were you trying to do?” Mabel asked sadly, taking the blade from her.

      “Mabel,” She sobbed, pulling her into a hug. Mabel held her tight. “I don’t want to leave like this anymore,” her voice muffled.

    Mabel patted her hair. “It’s okay, I am here for you. I will never leave your side,” she said, and they pulled away from each other. She  cleaned up her tears. “Don’t cry, this isn’t the end of the world for you. I can understand what you’re going through,” She said, her expression filled with empathy.

       “I can’t take it anymore, nobody cares about me, I am just a used vessel to everyone, the person I once put my hope on has abandoned me, I am now a complete slave to everyone”.She sniffs and Mabel caress her face.

        “Don’t say that, you are not a slave, no one has forgotten about you, I am still here”.She said and pulled her into a warm hug.”Everything is going to be fine”.She pat her back

      

      Later in the day, Sofia returned from school, her expression weary. She entered the living room to see Sly and his fiancée seated at the dining table, their faces furious. Sofia wondered why they were so moody.

    “Come here,” Sly said, his voice cold.

    Sofia walked up to them, her eyes cautious. Before she could react, she received a hot slap across her face. “You thief!” the lady yelled, her face reddening with anger.

    Sofia’s eyes widened in shock as she held her face. “What are you talking about?” she asked, her voice trembling.

    Sly’s expression turned menacing. “Do you think you can come to my house and steal from my woman?” he asked, his voice dripping with malice.

       “I didn’t steal anything,” she said, her eyes pleading.

    The lady’s face twisted in anger. “Liar! If you didn’t steal my expensive jewelry, how come it was found in the place you sleep on?” she yelled, slamming the missing necklace on the table.

    Sofia’s eyes widened in fear. “I didn’t take it,” she said, trying to defend herself.

    Sly’s face reddened with anger. “You are still lying in my presence,” he yelled, his voice echoing through the room.

    He ordered one of his men to get him a pressing iron, and Sofia flinched in fear. The iron was brought to him, and he plugged it in, his eyes glinting with malice.

    “If you don’t tell me why you stole from her, I’ll use this hot pressing iron on you,” he threatened, his voice dripping with menace. He ordered his men to hold Sofia, and she begged for her life, her hands stretched out in pleading. 

     “No, I didn’t take it!” she cried out, her eyes streaming with tears. “Please believe me, I didn’t take it,” she cried out again.

    The lady’s face twisted in anger. “Liar! You are a thief,” she yelled, her voice echoing through the room.

    The workers hid from view, watching in fear as the scene unfolded.

    Sly’s smirk grew wider as he brought the hot iron closer to Sofia’s hand. “Your family has the nerve to steal from me and run away, and you think you can steal from my woman and get away with it?” he sneered.

    Sofia flinched in fear, her eyes fixed on the iron. “No, no, I didn’t take it, please!” she screamed, seeing the iron was almost close to her hand.

    Suddenly, someone grabbed Sly’s hand and held it tight. Sly groaned in pain, and the lady’s eyes widened in surprise. Sofia opened her eyes to see Shawn, his face twisted in anger.

    She looked around and saw his men surrounding the room, their faces set in determined expressions. Shawn’s eyes locked onto Sly, his gaze cold and menacing.

       “You! How dare…” Sly’s words trailed off as he screamed in pain when Shawn took the hot iron and placed it on his hand.

    The lady tried to run, but Shawn’s men held her firm. “Let me go!” she struggled with them, her face reddening with anger.

    Shawn’s expression remained cold. “Bring her closer,” he ordered, his voice firm.

    His men brought the lady closer, and she yelled, “No, don’t touch me!” Shawn used the hot iron and burned her hand, and she screamed in pain.

    Sly yelled, groaning in pain while holding his burnt hand. “You bastard! How dare you!”

    Shawn’s face darkened. “How dare me,” he frowned and landed several slaps on Sly’s face. Then, he flipped some files onto Sly’s face.

    Sly’s eyes widened as he read the contents of the files. Shawn’s expression turned menacing. “Just so you know, your lying scheme is over. Soon enough, the police will be here to take you back to prison where you belong.”

    Sly’s face paled. “What evidence do you have?” he yelled, but Shawn just scoffed.

    “They are right there on the file, and the original copy has been sent to the high authority. Soon, you will be apprehended along with your accomplice,” Shawn smirked, his eyes glinting with triumph.

    Sly’s face contorted in fear. Shawn turned to look at Sofia, and his expression softened. He saw her weak face and was about to pull her into a hug when suddenly she slumped, almost falling to the ground.

    Shawn held her quickly as she fell unconscious. “Sofia!” he called, trying to wake her up. He tugged her into his arms and rushed out along with his men.

    Sly and his fiancée were left groaning in pain, their faces twisted in agony. Sly’s men rushed to their aid.

     It all turned out that  Shawn’s men had gathered crucial information about Sly’s evil plot. They discovered that Sly had forged Sofia’s signature on documents and made false claims to the lawsuits and authorities. Shawn seized the opportunity and quickly emailed the original copies to the highest authority.

    When the authorities noticed the discrepancies, they swiftly took illegal action to bring Sly down. Additionally, some videos were presented as evidence, showing Sly sexually assaulting ladies. All evidence pointed to Sly’s guilt.

    As soon as Shawn and his men left Sly’s house, the police arrived and took Sly, his men, and his fiancée into custody. The lady tried to deny any involvement with Sly, but it was too late. They were taken away, their faces etched with shock and fear.

    The workers in the house, who had been held captive, finally found freedom. They quickly packed their belongings and ran out of the house, their faces filled with relief and joy. They had finally escaped the clutches of the evil Sly.

    The scene outside the house was chaotic, with police cars and ambulances surrounding the area. The workers were being attended to by paramedics, while Sly and his accomplices were being taken away in handcuffs.

    Shawn, who had been watching from a distance, felt a sense of satisfaction and relief. Justice had finally been served, and Sofia was safe. He turned to his men and nodded, “Let’s go”.

           The next morning, they sat at the dining table, eating breakfast. Sofia avoided eye contact with Shawn, her eyes cast downward. Rachel frowned, sensing the tension between them.

    Rachel picked up an egg with her fork and pointed it towards Shawn. “Come on, babe, open up,” she said, smiling.

    Shawn hesitated, then opened his mouth. Rachel shoved the egg into his mouth, and Shawn chewed, his eyes fixed on Sofia.

    “You look cute with your mouth moving gently,” Rachel teased, her eyes sparkling with amusement.

    Sofia’s face turned pink, and she stood up abruptly. “Um, excuse me,” she said, grabbing her phone and rushing upstairs to her room.

    “Where are you going? You haven’t finished your food,” Shawn said, looking concerned

    “I am full already,” She replied, not looking back.

    Shawn stared after her, his eyes still fixed on the stairs. Rachel placed a hand on his arm. “Come on, don’t worry about her,” she said, smiling reassuringly.

    Shawn sighed, his eyes still fixed on the stairs.

    Later that day, Sofia sat alone by the pool, reading a book. Rachel walked over, holding a plate of fruit salad.

      “Hey,” Sofia said, sitting upright and smiling.

    Rachel sat down next to her. “I brought you some fruits,” she said, offering the plate.

    her eyes lit up. “Thank you, but you shouldn’t have.”

     “Come on, it’s the little I can do.”She smiled.They shared a warm smile. “So, how’s it going with school? I heard you guys are on holiday,” She asked.

    Sofia nodded, taking a bite of the fruit salad. “Yes.”

    She sighed. “That’s good. So, tell me, Sofia, don’t get offended by what I want to say.”

     “Sure, no problem.” She said curiously.

     “Who is Shawn to you right now? I know how you ended up in his house.”her eyes locked onto Sofia’s. Sofia’s face scrunched up in confusion. “I just want to know the relationship between you two,” Rachel added.

     “There is no relationship between us like the way you’re thinking. Shawn is my guardian.” She said making it clear to her.

       “Just a guardian? No string attached?” She asked, her eyes narrowing slightly with curiosity.

    Sofia’s expression turned matter-of-fact. “Don’t get it wrong, there is nothing going on between us. Besides, I don’t see him like that. He’s yours anyway.”

    Rachel’s face lit up with a smile, her eyes sparkling with relief. “Okay, I just want to be sure. You know I love him so much. I really didn’t want him to slip off my hand.”

    Sofia nodded, looking calm”I know.” She returned to her book, and Rachel looked at her with a smirk, her eyes glinting with amusement.

    Later that evening, Shawn walked into the dining room, where Rachel was setting the table with the help of the workers. Sofia was nowhere to be seen.

      “Where is Sofia?” he asked, his eyes scanning the room.

    Rachel turned to him, a hint of a smile on her face. “Probably in her room. She hasn’t stepped out since noon.”

    His brow furrowed slightly. “Isn’t she joining us for dinner?”

    Rachel’s expression turned nonchalant. “I called her before, and she said she wasn’t hungry.”

    He sighed, his eyes narrowing slightly as he headed back to Sofia’s room.

    Meanwhile, Sofia was in her room, having a phone call with Mabel. “Well, I can’t wait either. Staying at home doing nothing is boring,” she said, laughing. Just then, someone knocked on the door. “Talk to you later, someone’s at the door,” She  said, hanging up the phone.

    She got up to open the door, and her eyes widened in surprise when she saw Shawn standing there. “Shawn, you’re back,” she said, smiling.

    Shawn’s expression turned concerned. “Why aren’t you joining us for dinner?”

    Her face turned sheepish. “Um, dinner… I totally forgot about that.”

    His eyes narrowed slightly. “Rachel told me you said you weren’t hungry.”

    Her expression turned confused, her eyes furrowing slightly. “Um, yeah… just give me a second. I’ll join you guys.”

     “Go in. I’ll wait here for you.”

    Sofia nodded and returned to her room. She put on her slippers, grabbed her phone from the bed, and then left with Shawn.

    As they walked downstairs, Rachel looked up and saw them coming. A frown curved her face, her eyes narrowing slightly as she sensed the connection between Shawn and Sofia.

    “Oh, Sofia, you changed your mind?” she asked, smiling forcedly.

    Sofia nodded, and they sat down to eat, the tension between them palpable.

       As they continued eating, Rachel spoke up, breaking the silent mood. “So, Sofia, did you resign from your job? I haven’t seen you go out of this house since I came,” she said, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

    Shawn’s expression turned confused, while Sofia’s eyes widened in surprise, her face pale. “What job are you talking about?” Shawn asked, his brow furrowed.

    Rachel’s smile grew wider. “Sofia’s job, I overheard Mabel talking to V if he can help you with a job vacancy,” she said, her eyes glinting with amusement.

    Sofia’s eyes darted to Shawn, her face guilty. She gulped nervously, avoiding Shawn’s gaze. “Is that true? You went working behind my back? Was that the reason why you told me to stop a guard from following you to school?” Shawn asked, his voice unfriendly, his eyes narrowing.

    Sofia’s face turned pink, and she looked down, her voice barely above a whisper. “I’m sorry, I was just trying to gather some money for myself, so I won’t be indebted to you.”

    Rachel’s smile grew wider, her eyes sparkling with amusement as she watched Shawn’s angry reaction.

    “When did all these happen?” Shawn asked, his voice rising in anger.

    Sofia’s voice trembled. “After the guard stopped following me to school, I got a job at a restaurant. I only worked a week, and I stopped.”

    Rachel’s eyes locked onto Sofia’s. “Why did you stop? Was it stressful?”

    Sofia’s face turned pale, and she remained silent.

    Shawn’s expression turned harsh. “You lied to me. You know what I hate the most is a lie. Do you think working to make ends meet will make you pay all the debt your family owes me?” Sofia’s eyes welled up with tears as Shawn’s words cut deep. “No matter how many years you will have to work, you will never be able to pay back. You are mine now, and there is no turning back for you. Your family sold you out to me, you are with me, and you must abide by my rules,” he said harshly.

    Sofia’s face crumpled, and she lowered her face to the ground, hurt by his words. Rachel’s expression turned calm, her voice soothing. “Come on, Shawn, don’t be too harsh on her. She’s still a little girl. I thought you knew about it.”

    Sofia’s voice trembled. “I’m sorry, I promise it won’t happen again,” she said sadly, her eyes welling up with tears.

     “If this happens again and I found out about it, I won’t hold back next time,” Shawn warned, his expression stern. He stood up to leave, his eyes flashing with anger.

    “Where are you going?” Rachel asked, her brow furrowed with concern.

    Shawn ignored her and left for his room, his footsteps echoing through the hallway.

    Rachel sighed. She smirked at Sofia before making an innocent face. “Don’t take what he said to you too hard, he’s just angry that you lied to him. I’m sure he’ll come around,” she said, her voice dripping with sweetness.

    Sofia nodded, her eyes cast downward. Rachel added, “I’m sorry I spilled it out, I didn’t mean to. Please forgive me.” Sofia nodded again, and Rachel smiled, her eyes glinting with triumph.

    ____

    The next morning, Shawn came out of his room, dressed up to leave. His eyes met Sofia’s as she emerged from her room. 

     “Good morning,” she greeted, her voice soft.

    Shawn nodded slightly, his expression still stern, and walked away. Sofia sighed sadly, her eyes following him.

    As Shawn came down the staircase, he paused, his eyes catching sight of a familiar figure rolling his wheelchair into the house. Sly, accompanied by his men and some lawsuit agents and high authorities in the city, looked determined.

    Rachel came out of the kitchen, looking surprised, while Sofia’s eyes widened in shock. She took a step back, her face pale.

    Sly’s eyes locked onto Sofia, his expression cold and calculating. “Ah, Sofia. We meet again,” he said, his voice dripping with malice.

    The air was thick with tension as Sly’s men and the lawsuit agents moved forward, their faces stern. Rachel’s eyes narrowed, her expression guarded, while Shawn’s eyes flashed with anger.

    Sofia’s eyes darted between Sly and Shawn, her heart racing with fear. She knew that this time, things wouldn’t go well.

    “Follow me” He said

    Almost immediately, the people in the crowd began throwing food and drinks at Lucia.

    In a swift motion, Kingsley drew her to his arms and the food all landed on his back.

    The crowd gasped when the food hit Kingsley’s back and not Lucia, Kingsley released Lucia and turned to glare at those people

    They immediately shrunk back in fear. Kingsley grabbed Lucia’s arm and dragged her out of the hall.

    Jayden stood on his spot as he watched them leave. He was actually going to protect her but Kingsley was faster.

    Andrew watched Jayden then he looked at Kingsley and Lucia’s retreating figure. A smirk slowly crept up his lips

    “This will be fun to watch”

    Kingsley released her wrist and faced her when they got outside in the open air. He couldn’t hide his shock when he saw her grabbing her chest painfully as she panted loudly.

    Kingsley’s eyes widened, she was having a panic attack.

    “Hey, calm down.” Kingsley grabbed her arms, nudging her slightly but it didn’t help matters.

    Kingsley immediately cupped her cheeks and turned her face to his.

    “Lucia, look at me” Kingsley said and she did so.

    “It’s alright, those people won’t taunt nor hurt you anymore… Just breath in and out” Kingsley said softly and Lucia began exhaling and inhaling slowly.

    Few seconds later, she found herself calming down.

    “That’s it, keep doing just that” Kingsley muttered as she heaved in and out.

    “I’m okay now” Lucia muttered and Kingsley nodded, slowly releasing her cheeks.

    “Thank you, for helping me out and I’m sorry about your shirt” Lucia said, looking at his stained back.

    “Wow, I thought you didn’t know how to say the word thank you” Kingsley smirked before looking up at the sky.

    His smirk fell and was replaced with a guilty face. “I’m sorry about that, it’s all my fault. I got you into my mess with Maggie” Kingsley said

    “About your panic attack, mind explaining to me when it started” Kingsley turned to look at her.

    Lucia looked down and Kingsley could sense her mood changed.

    “It’s okay if you don’t want to” He added.

    “It’s really complicated and unbelievable so I don’t think you’ll believe it” Lucia said

    “Looks like complicated and unbelievable things usually happens to us” Kingsley chuckled and Lucia smiled.

    “Do-“

    “Lucia!!” A voice called out and they both turned to the door to see Scarlett and the others

    Scarlett immediately ran to Lucia and hugged her tightly..

    “We’ve been looking for you everywhere” Becky said.

    “Are you okay? Are you fine?” Scarlett questioned worriedly and Lucia nodded with a smile.

    “I’ll leave now” Kingsley smiled before he left.

    “Gosh, I’m sorry you had to watch that video” Scarlett said and hugged Lucia back.

    ❆⋆❆⋆❆⋆❆

    <BACK IN THE HALL>

    The party continued like nothing was going on. Maggie and her girls were sitting in a crowd of girls, drinking while chitchatting.

    👥 Gosh, Maggie you were so cool back then. The way you put that b*tch into her place

    👥 I love your dress Maggie, from which brands did you get it

    Maggie smiled proudly at all the compliments she was getting. Sylvia kept forcing a smile on her lips, it was her birthday yet the guests seem to be more interested in Maggie than her.

    👥 Jayden is coming this way!

    👥 Gosh Jayden! We love you!

    👥 He looks even more handsome up close.

    Avery immediately fixed her skirt and smiled widely when Jayden got to them, he didn’t even cast a glance at her.

    “Maggie we need to talk” Jayden said, surprising Maggie.

    “What do you want?” She frowned.

    When Jayden saw she wasn’t ready to cooperate, he dragged her up and pulled her out of the crowd with tons of eyes following them.

    “What are you doing! Let me go!” Maggie jerked her hand off his grip

    “Stay away from Lucia” Jayden said, taking Maggie off guard

    “I don’t know why you’re so hellbent on making her suffer but stop that nonsense” Jayden said.

    Maggie smirked. “Why… Don’t tell me you like her? How will your precious fans react when they find out that out of all the girls dying to be with you, you choose that pathetic slvt whose nude has trended in the whole country” Maggie crossed her arms.

    Jayden took a menacing step closer to her and Maggie couldn’t help by shrink backwards. He looked really scary when angry 

    “Think whatever you wanna think but stay away from her. Trust me, you don’t wanna see my angry side” Jayden said.

    He glared at her one last time before walking away. Maggie released a huge breath as she watched him walk away 

    Her fists slowly folded tightly. “That b*tch! What do people see in her that the two most popular boys in school are hellbent in protecting her” Maggie said and ran her hands through her hair angrily.

    ❆⋆❆⋆❆⋆❆

    <8PM>

    “That’s really bad what happened to Lucia, I hope she’s fine” Jackson spoke as she walked hand in gloves next to Scarlett.

    Lucia and the rest had already gone home and Scarlett wanted to tag along with them but Lucia assured her she was fine and it will be sad if she ditched Jackson for her since they had plans of going home together.

    “I’m glad she’s okay, what surprises me is that it’s Kingsley who saved her. Those two are like cats and dogs” Scarlett said and Jackson chuckled.

    “Kingsley might sometimes appear like a jerk or spoilt brat but he that’s just his way of caring. Who knows maybe he’s falling for her” Jackson said.

    “Really? Should we matchmake them together” Scarlett grinned.

    “That sounds fun” Jackson grinned the same way as her and she laughed.

    The dark sky grumbled loudly and Scarlett yelped, grabbing Jackson’s jacket. Almost immediately it began raining.

    “F*+*k! That was sudden” Scarlett muttered, covering her head with her arms but the rain had already drenched their bodies

    “There’s a shelter, let’s stay under there.” Jackson pointed out and they immediately rushed to the shelter.

    The shelter was quite high for Scarlett short legs to reach and Jackson chuckled at her failed attempts to climb

    “Shortie, let me help you” He said

    A gasp escaped Scarlett lips when Jackson grabbed her waist and lifted her off the ground, taking her by surprise. She instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck.

    Jackson placed her up there and she opened her eyes, a low gasp escaped her lips when her gaze met with Jackson’s eyes.

    The rain was still falling on him, making his hair stick dangerously to his face. Her gaze went to his wet lips and she gulped down.

    Jackson stared at her with the same intensity. Some strands of her short hair stuck to her face and he brought his hand forth, gently pushing the hair to the back of her ear before his palms rested on her cheek.

    He slowly brought his face closer to hers with his gaze fixated on her alluring lips which were slightly parted.

    Scarlett’s heart couldn’t stop hammering against its ribcage as he brought his face closer and closer to hers. A shiver ran through her whole body when his lips slightly brushed against hers.

    “Can I… Kiss you?” Jackson muttered and Scarlett slowly closed her eyes 

    Jackson took it as a yes and without hesitation, he pressed his lips softly against hers

    Scarlett felt her whole body wither when their lips collided. His hand was resting on the nape of her neck as his lips moved on hers.

    Slowly, she began reciprocating the kiss and from the way she kissed back, Jackson could tell it was her first kiss.

    Scarlett brought her hands to his chest, his heart was hammering so fast, same way as hers. 

    She slowly ran her hands from his chest to his hair and Jackson groaned as their lips separated.

    “Don’t do that” He whispered.

    “What?” Scarlett asked.

    “You’re too innocent to understand” He muttered and reconnected back their lips. Scarlett’s hand buried itself in his hair as they kissed, completely forgetting that it was raining on them.

    ❆⋆❆⋆❆⋆❆

    <MORNING••P•P DORM>

    “Eva!” Lucia walked in Eva’s room to meet her still sleeping on bed.

    “Unnie wake up! We have classes today” Lucia muttered, walking in fully.

    Her eyes caught a pink book on the bed and she picked it 

    “Eva’s diary?” She raised a brow.

    She looked at Eva and grinned before opening the book. Her eyes widened as she read

    “Impossible… She has a crush on-“

    “Lucia?” Eva moved on the bed 

    Sleep immediately cleared off her eyes when she saw Lucia holding her diary.

    “Give that back!” Eva said and immediately snatched the book from Lucia.

    “Someone here is having a crush..” Lucia teased

    Eva looked away embarrassedly. “C’mon! Nothing to feel shy about” Lucia said.

    “Why don’t you tell him” Lucia winked 

    “I-” 

    “Hey Eva, can I borrow your bra? I forgot to do my laundry” Becky said and without waiting for a reply she was already rummaging through Eva’s wardrobe.

    “My br@?” Eva raised a brow

    “What? It’s not my fault we have same b**b size” Becky shrugged.

    “Argh!!!” They heard Scarlett scream from her room.

    Lucia, Becky and Eva groaned at once 

    “I bet it’s because of Jackson” Lucia muttered

    Eva rubbed her brows. Being the leader of these three is definitely not easy.

    ❆⋆❆⋆❆⋆❆

    <CRESTWOOD HIGH ACADEMY>

    The girls arrived the school and they could see some students looking their way while murmuring while looking at their phones

    The video of Maggie humiliating her and also the video of Kingsley saving her trended in the school blog and the students couldn’t help but gossip

    Some think Kingsley and Lucia are dating and just that thought made them hate her even more 

    “Today we’ll be having a vocal training at the company” Lucia read their training timetable from her phone

    “I suck at singing” Becky sighed

    “Don’t worry, we can-argh!” Lucia yelped when someone bumped roughly on her that she almost dropped her phone.

    She looked up to see Kingsley smirking at her.

    “Hey! Are you blind?” Lucia snapped

    “Oh sorry, I didn’t see you.. Bony legs” Kingsley smirked before he began walking away

    Lucia glared at him. Yesterday he acted so cool that she thought he had changed, well guess she was wrong.

    “You baboon!” Lucia went after him, ranting non-stop.

    She suddenly bumped on someone, causing her to stop.

    “Jayden” She muttered when she saw while she bumped on 

    “Are you okay?” He asked and Lucia nodded.

    “About last night-“

    “I just want to forget about it. I guess it was a bad idea attending the party, I’m fine now” Lucia said

    “Okay, let’s go to class” Jayden said and took her hand.

    Lucia gasped at the gestured and made to talk but when she saw the bright smile on his face, she just smiled back and they began walking 

    👥 Kingsley isn’t enough for her now she wants Jayden?

    👥 What a b+tch!

    Lucia bit her lips. “Umm Jayden, I don’t think it’s a good idea hanging out with me” Lucia stopped walking, removing her hand from his grip.

    “What? Because of what the students will say? I don’t really care about what they think about me, we’re friends right?” Jayden muttered and Lucia nodded 

    Jayden smiled. “Great, let’s go” He said and she nodded before they resumed walking.

    ❆⋆❆⋆❆⋆❆

    <UNKNOWN LOCATION>

    A lady was seen sitting in the dark with a glass of red wine in her hand. From the look on her face, she looked furious, very furious.

    The door to the room opened and the light coming outside casted on her red painted lips.

    “Y-You called for me ma’am” The man stuttered

    “Why is she still alive?” The lady said, slowly standing up from the chair she was sitting 

    The man looked down, sweating profusely. The lady walked to him and slapped him loudly.

    “I f*+*king asked you a question. Why is she still alive! I had everything planned out for her déad to be smooth but you ruined it. I faked that scandal! I made the whole of Korea hate her and you had one, just one foolish task, to kill her and make her déad seem like she committed suicide yet you failed!” The lady yelled angrily.

    “I’m… I’m sorry ma’am” The man stuttered.

    “I give you three weeks to produce her déad body to me or else. You won’t like what I’ll do to your family” The lady said and the man nodded

    “Now get out!” She yelled and the man scurried off

    The lady ran her hands through her hair and walked to the pin board where three pictures were pinned on it.

    Amongst the three pictures, two of them were recognizable and it was none other than the pic of chubby Lucia and K-pop Lucia.

    “One target gone, remains you” The lady smirked, touching the picture of K-pop Lucia 

    ❆⋆❆⋆❆⋆❆

    <GRADE 12>

    The students began leaving the classroom, heading towards the computer laboratory for the next lesson

    Kingsley closed his books and began packing them when he noticed Lucia wasn’t moving. He turned to her to see her face was buried in her books as she slept, her hair scattered all over her face

    “Hey dullard” Kingsley called out but she didn’t bulge.

    He looked around to see everyone had left. He shifted closer to her and slowly removed some strands of her hair from his faced to stare at her sleeping face.

    He found himself lost staring at her, her features were so delicate like a baby that he began wondering on why everyone was so hellbent on hating her.

    She looks so pretty as she slept that he couldn’t help but smile as his heart skipped a beat. Kingsley’s eyes widened as his hand went to his chest.

    What just happened?

    He blinked and shook his head, refusing to believe what just happened.

    “Mhm..” Lucia slowly rose up, rubbing her eyes.

    “Where’s everyone” She asked, looking around.

    “At the computer lab, get your flat ass up” Kingsley said harshly and immediately left the class 

    Lucia blinked. “Why is he always so harsh with me” She frowned and began packing her stuffs.

    “Yes, little one” Slade sinisterly replied, his dark hair dripping sinfully.

    Three blinks brought her back to reality, then she realized she’s not dreaming.

    It’s real.

    She made to step away from him, but he already grabbed her by the waist, keeping her with him.

    Something hard poked her again, but this time, it’s on her lower stomach, and she held her breaths, trying to form a word as the water continued wetting both of them.

    He’s looking down at her with intense intrigue, interest and an unhealthy amount of intentionality which made her shudder.

    His eyes just have a way of speaking with it’s icy components, and it’s crazy.

    “Let me go…I can feel your…” She stuttered as the poke got harder on her stomach.

    “Feel my what?” His dulcet voice came.

    “I… Just… just let me go” she wriggled, but that only made him pull her closer.

    He swirled her and took her to the wall where he pressed her on the glass, trapping her there.

    She couldn’t even look up, the embarrassment is firsthand.

    “What the f+ck are you doing in my house? What are you doing in my bathroom, Light? Did you miss me that crazy?” He said, and she immediately looked up with a scoff.

    “Missed you? You’re not in the list of people I can miss, and I didn’t even know you’re the grandson. Grandpa Cedric invited me” she said defensively, and that sick smile graced his lips again.

    He took the brown tendrils of hair on her face away, then he held her face with an hand, leaning down to her.

    The air shifted around them, and Twilight closed her eyes fast, but she folded her lips to avoid unnecessary story.

    “I have no business with your lips, so open your damn eyes” he said, and slowly, he opened her eyes.

    He continued staring into the two eyeballs intently like a freak.

    “Your descendants are bloody betrayers” he muttered, and she blinked.

    “What do you mean?”

    Without replying, he began leaving, but she quickly pulled him by the arm.

    “Why aren’t you telling me? Did you see something?” She asked desperately.

    He looked down at his arm that she’s holding, realizing that’s the first contact she willingly made with him.

    Strangely, it felt good, too.

    “You can continue holding me like this if you’d love a good s+x in here. Back shots this time” he said, and she quickly let go of his hand.

    Immediately she did that, her eyes caught his d+ck, and she gulped when she saw the piercings and veins again, then she quickly whipped around, turning her back on him.

    “Turning back is unnecessary, not like it hasn’t been inside you before” Slade said with a sharp smirk before wrapping a towel around himself, then he left the bathroom.

    “That @ss” Twilight muttered, turning around slowly, and when she remembered how he looked into her eyes earlier and said something about her descendants, she furrowed her brows, wondering what it might mean.

    She stayed in the bathroom for ten more minutes before coming out too.

    When she got back to the bedroom, Slade already dressed up in a compression shirt and sweatpants which made him look casual but still attractive.

    It’s the first time she saw him outside his black shirts, blazers, coats or slacks.

    He was brushing his hair in a smooth slick-back when she entered the bedroom.

    “Why don’t you ever leave your hair down? I think that’d fit you better” she said before she knew it, and she gasped.

    “That was…a mistake. I didn’t mean to say it” she quickly said.

    “You make a lotta mistakes, Light” he replied in his crisp voice, taking a sweater from the full wardrobe.

    He pointed it at her, and she took it slowly.

    “You can change into that and give your wet gown to the maid for drying, though I prefer you wet” he said, and she gave him a glare which didn’t affect him as he began walking out of the room.

    “Come to the dinning for dinner. My grandpa doesn’t invite just anyone to this estate, so you must be special or something” he said casually before finally exiting.

    Twilight quickly stripped herself of the wet gown, even her bra had to go since it’s wet too.

    She left her panty and boy shorts on before putting on the sweater which stopped on top of her knees luckily.

    Just how tall is that bastard?

    She took the wet gown and bra and left the room, meeting the maid from earlier by the door.

    “Give it to me, I’ll dry it” she said, and Twilight handed it over.

    “Thank you” she smiled.

    The maid proceeded to leading her out of the hall to the dinning where she met dinner in progress already.

    Grandpa Cedric is sitting at the exclusive end of the table, Uriel is by the left while Slade is by the right.

    They’re all eating except Slade who’s drinking his dilution again.

    Grandpa Cedric was the first to see her, and his face lightened up immediately.

    “Why are you standing there? Join us!” He summoned with a wave of his hand.

    Both Uriel and Slade looked at her direction at the same time, and despite the fact that the sweater covered her well, she started pulling it down awkwardly.

    Uriel looked away almost immediately, but Slade’s empty eyes never left her, especially her legs.

    “Come!” Grandpa Cedric said again, and she walked into the dinning, almost falling as a result of Slade’s eyes.

    She decided to sit beside Uriel, but Uriel spoke up.

    “Not allowed, go sit beside your owner” he said.

    “No one is my owner here” she replied instantly.

    “You know what I’m talking about” Uriel replied, finally looking at her.

    She needs no soothsayer to tell her that Uriel doesn’t like her. It’s obvious.

    She went to sit beside Slade eventually, and when she saw the meals, she smiled.

    There’s fish, her favorite, and there are lots of fruit juice which she’s in love with too.

    “Do you like them? Or do I need to tell the maids to change the menu?” Grandpa Cedric asked.

    “I like them, but I have a question” she replied.

    “Ask anything” Cedric replied.

    “Why must Killa…I mean Slade…why must be kill me? Who am I?” She asked, and silence took over the dinning room immediately.

    Grandpa Cedric’s face turned pitiful for a second, but he quickly masked it with a sigh.

    “You should ask your father, he owes you the explanation, not us” he said.

    “And am I really going to die? Is Slade really going to kill me?…When?” She asked slowly, and the silence deepened.

    Her eyes went from Grandpa Cedric to Slade who’s already eating from the cake without any care.

    She looked at Uriel too, but Uriel looked away from her, so she hiccupped.

    “Can we not think about the future right now? Who knows if there’s another way to lift his curse?” Grandpa Cedric spoke.

    “But…

    “Eat” Slade cut her off.

    “Huh?” She faced him with another hiccup.

    “Just eat” he replied, finally looking at her 

    Somehow, that made her relax a bit 

    She picked her fork and began eating the fish slowly.

    Grandpa Cedric smiled.

    A HERBAL SHOP IN TOWN*

    The time is 7:30pm when Lord Vann’s car halted in front of the shop 

    It’s the one Lady Lorraine told him she saw the elixir advertisement at.

    He got to the door and pushed it. Surprisingly, it opened, and he met an old woman inside.

    “Aren’t you the owner of the university?” She asked, coming out from the middle of the herbs she’s watering.

    “Yes, I’m Vann Wesley” he replied.

    “How may I help you?” She asked.

    “Two years ago, there was an advertisement pasted in front of this shop for the sales of an elixir…

    “The Kontrol elixir?” She cut him off.

    “Yes. Who pasted the advert?” He asked.

    “I only woke up that fateful morning to see the advertisement pasted on my front door, but the amusing thing is that it was pasted on the front door of every herbal shop in this town too. We all thought it was a joke, till they started distributing the expensive elixir early this year for those who placed the orders two years ago, and you should see the chaos happening in town right now cos people use it to control whoever they want. They control girls to rape, control banks to rob and many others. No one knows who these people are, and the cops aren’t even investigating” the woman explained, and Lord Vann sighed

    “Thank you for this bit” he said.

    The woman nodded, and he left the shop.

    Immediately he got out, he nearly got hit by a bicycle, but he was fast to dodge though he almost fell.

    The helmeted bicycle rider pedalled away without saying sorry, and Vann immediately saw a paper on the ground which he picked.

    He opened it and saw a note.

    “GIVE UP ON THE INVESTIGATION YOU’RE TRYING TO START ABOUT THE ELIXIR, OTHERWISE, YOU’LL BE DEAD”

    Hi looked up after reading, crumbling the paper in his palm.

    “Who are these people?” He muttered.

    *

    LUTHER’S ISLAND*

    Aimee dismissed the guards when she got to Stella’s doorstep, and she stepped in.

    Stella is in bed as usual, but this time, she’s not sleeping.

    Her eyes are open drowsily, and a small smile appeared on her face when she saw Aimee.

    Aimee sat beside her and covered her well with the duvet.

    “Is Slade back?” Stella asked softly.

    “Stop asking about that bastard, mother. He’s not ready to see you or father” Aimee replied.

    “But I miss him. It’s been twenty two years since he ran away from this island” She said.

    “Stop thinking about him, mother” Aimee stood.

    “But I can’t… He’s taking too long to kill his cure, and it’s dangerous. I don’t want to lose him. I know what i saw in the forest that night” Stella replied.

    “What did you see?” Aimee asked, and a tear slipped out of Stella’s eyes.

    FLASHBACK, 27 YRS AGO*

    “Oh no!!! No!!!” Timothy screamed when he saw Stella’s unconscious body on the forest ground.

    “Stella! Stella!” He knelt beside her, bringing her head to his laps 

    “Stella wake up! Wake up I promise to get you the ice cream wake up!!” He shouted, but no answer came from her.

    “No no no!!!” He yelled again, looking up to see the doctor who’s standing there guiltily.

    He stood and grabbed him by the shirt.

    “What did you do to my wife? What did you do!!!” He demanded hotly.

    “Calm down, please…my name is… Greg. I’m a herbal doctor, and i know how dangerous this ritual is, which is why I came here in the forest to do it! She shouldn’t have come here!” Greg replied.

    “Wake her up then! Wake her!!” Timothy yelled, and almost immediately, Stella screamed back to life.

    “Arhhhhhggg!!!!!”

    Sweat danced on her temples as her back lifted from the ground, her screams filling the whole forest.

    “Stella!” Timothy rushed back to her, but his eyes widened when he saw blood pouring out of her middle.

    “No! No! You’re only seven months gone. You can’t deliver now!” Timothy said.

    “She will. If she doesn’t deliver now, then the babies might die in her womb” Greg said behind.

    “What are you saying?” Timothy’s eyes widened.

    “She witnessed a dangerous ritual, I’m afraid the baby is cursed cos this ground is unholy I fear” Greg replied.

    “Baby? There are three babies inside her motherf+cker! She’s got triplets inside her!” Timothy yelled.

    “Ohhhh!!!!!!” Stella cried again.

    “Let’s get her to my cottage. It’s not far from here, I’ll help her deliver safely” Greg offered.

    Timothy didn’t even think twice before agreeing.

    Jointly, they took Stella out of the forest.

    BACK TO THE PRESENT*

    “You gave birth to us in Greg’s cottage after all” Aimee stood.

    “Greg is… he’s… he’s not a good man” Stella muttered, and Timothy came in.

    “I’ll come back to see you early in the morning. Goodnight, mother” Aimee kissed her forehead and left the room.

    Timothy took her place beside Stella, and Stella held his hand.

    “I want to see Slade. Bring me my son” she me muttered.

    “Soon” he smiled.

    UNIVERSITY OF GLENNVILLE, 8PM~TAMLIN’S ROOM*

    Ruslan is standing beside Tamlin in bed, and despite Tamlin’s chest stabs, she’s still holding his phone, staring at the texts he sent to Twilight.

    She didn’t reply any, and it’s disturbing. He might just run mad at this point.

    She had sent Ruslan to go check her tower, but Echo said she went to see her father.

    Is she planning to spend the night at her father’s cottage?

    He suddenly sat up in bed, holding his chest.

    He put on his shoes.

    “Get me a new shirt from the wardrobe” he said.

    “To do what? Where are you going?” Ruslan asked.

    “I’m going to Twilight father’s cottage” he replied, standing up.

    Ruslan pushed him back to bed instantly.

    “Are you mad? You’ve got three stab wounds on your chest which is only just healing!” Ruslan said, but Tamlin stood again.

    “I have to see her, you don’t know how I’m feeling right now jerk! I need her beside me” He said.

    “You’re not going out of this castle” Lady Lorraine said, coming inside.

    “You do not get to tell my what to do” Tamlin glared.

    “Oh that’s where you’re wrong, young man. You’re my son” Lorraine glared back, pushing him to bed.

    “Lie back down and allow your stabs to heal. I’m still trying to get the Aimee lady so just rest” Lorraine said.

    “Then get Twilight here.” Tamlin replied.

    “If you refuse to rest, I’ll sedate you” Lorraine said.

    “Damn you” Tamlin groaned and lay back in bed.

    “Good” Lorraine said, leaving the room.

    She sent for Molly since an hour ago to hatch another plan with her, but she hasn’t showed up.

    “What’s going on with her” she muttered and was about to dial her number when Lord Vann showed up.

    “You’re back?” She said, hiding her phone.

    He gave her the paper warning he got, and as she read it, she frowned.

    “They’re threatening you? Who are these devils?” She faced him.

    “They might be more powerful than we think” Vann said, and she gasped.

    “I already asked for help from the Luthers though, let’s see what they got” Vann said.

    *

    FIFTH TOWER, RIHANNON’S ROOM*

    Damien is currently inside, playing house of cards with Rihannon.

    There was total silence in the room till Rihannon’s house crumbled, and Damien let out a roar of laughter.

    “I knew you’d f+ck up” he grinned, and she slapped him on the head which only made his laughter worse.

    Echo suddenly entered the room, and his laughter stopped.

    “Is Twi back?” He asked.

    “No” Echo replied.

    “Then why are you here? I thought you were angry” Rihannon said.

    “I’m sorry, I overreacted” Echo apologized.

    “Just be careful, anyone from the rich tower is not trustable, especially someone like Ruslan” Rihannon said.

    “Are you guys not going for dinner?” Echo asked, pretending not to hear the advice.

    “Is it ready? They said dinner will come late tonight” Damien stood.

    “It’s ready, the chefs dropped update on the homepage already” Echo replied, and Rihannon stood too.

    They left the room together and were already moving to the refectory when they heard screams and jeers from the tower base.

    Students are rushing too, so they joined the rush till they got to the base where students are surrounding Molly who looks helpless.

    * She can’t speak anymore?

    * Is it for real?

    * How come? She was ok at the field.

    * Who else has the power if not the monster of this school. Slade Luther!

    Molly opened her mouth to talk again, but she couldn’t.

    Her frozen tongue could be seen, covered with dry ice.

    “What the f+ck!” Rihannon gasped.

    “That’s crazy” Damien smirked.

    “I don’t like her, but I pity her” Echo said.

    Molly left the place in tears.

    *

    GRANDPA CEDRIC’S ESTATE, 8:30PM*

    The dinner is just getting over, and the maid called Twilight over to take her gown and br@.

    It’s all dried, so she changed back into it before coming out again.

    By the time she got out, everyone is gone from the dinning room.

    _To the balcony. Take the right and go down the hall, then open the first door_ the voice in her head spoke to her.

    She went that direction and opened the door, only to meet Slade there.

    He’s leaning on the balcony, holding a plate of cake which he’s eating from with a fork.

    The voice in her head is probably starting to get high cos why would it lead her to this man?

    However, she entered the balcony and stood beside him.

    He didn’t look at her at all, he just continued eating the black cake.

    “You seem to like cake” she said.

    “And you seem to like fish. You almost ate all the tuna fish at the dinning table. Fruit juice too” he replied blankly, still not looking her way.

    She made faces, resting her arms on the rails.

    “You’re oddly gentle tonight” she said.

    “We’ve gotten to the point where you notice everything about me” he said.

    “Don’t flatter yourself” she rolled eyes.

    “So you prefer my wicked side? I can switch it up for you” he finally faced her.

    “Don’t try it. I’ve seen enough” she rolled eyes again, and he took the cup beside himself, drinking from his dilution.

    When he made to drop it, Twilight took it and drank too.

    “It’s sweet. You like sweet things” she squeezed her face as she dropped the cup.

    “It’s black coffee and tequila mixture, sprinkled with sugar.” He said.

    “Black coffee and… tequila? You diluted the two? You’re sick, Killa” she said, and he secretly smiled.

    He hasn’t really liked the name since his mother began calling him that, but maybe it’s not that bad.

    “What do you mean by my descendants are betrayers?” She suddenly asked.

    “Go ask your father” he replied.

    “But you can tell me too! Why is everyone hiding!” She snapped.

    “You do not snap at me! I’ll fuçking snap your neck!” He glared, pushing the glass cup and cake aside.

    “Then tell me what!” She snapped again, and he instantly grabbed her by the throat, slamming her back on the rails.

    “F+ck!” She gasped, concentrating on his eyes as it shone the dark-gold.

    “Watch it, little one. I can decide to flip the switch anytime” he muttered.

    “Time to leave, the car is ready” Uriel came into the balcony.

    Slade released her neck, and she scoffed, rubbing her throat.

    Slade left the balcony, and Uriel handed her the sweater the wore earlier.

    “He doesn’t wear things that has been worn by others, so you can have it” he said. 

    “You both are the same, your personality sucks!” She rolled eyes, snatching the sweater from him.

    They left the balcony together, saying bye to Grandpa Cedric before leaving for the park.

    Grandpa Cedric watched as they got in the car which immediately drove out, and he sighed out .

    “I wish there’s another way” he mumbled.

    The little time Twilight spent here is enough to make anyone like her.

    He likes her so much already, so watching that sweet girl die because of his grandson’s curse is sad.

    He sighed sadly again before going back inside.

    *

    9PM, UOG*

    Twilight stormed out of the car immediately it stopped at the castle park, and she didn’t wait for Slade or Uriel before waltzing away.

    She got a text from Echo while in the car that dinner is still going on, so she’d just go meet them at the refectory.

    “Grandpa Cedric was only trying to console her earlier, you know there’s no other way unless you kill her” Uriel said as he came down from the car with Slade.

    “I said I’ll bring your food to your room for you!” Ruslan’s voice suddenly said, and they both turned to see him rushing after Tamlin.

    “I need to go see her at the refectory at least” Tamlin replied, walking faster towards the refectory.

    Ruslan ran after him.

    Slade started going towards the refectory too, and Uriel followed.

    “By the way why is your hair down? It’s always slick-back” He said.

    “I suddenly like it down” Slade replied, and Uriel went silent.

    *

    REFECTORY*

    Twilight almost couldn’t hear anything when she entered the building.

    Apart from the chats from students, there’s obviously something else going on.

    Imogen and her dogs are the loudest. They’re literally screaming in their exclusive table.

    “Twi!” Echo’s voice reached Twilight, and she sighted her where she’s seated with Rihannon and Damien.

    She went there with a smile.

    “I didn’t know you’d still come back” Rihannon said.

    “Why is everywhere extra noisy though?” Twilight asked.

    “Founder’s day is coming” Damien replied.

    “Founder’s day?” Twilight blinked.

    “Yeah. You should check the homepage for more details” Echo winked.

    Twilight got her phone out of her bag to check, and that was when she saw the numerous texts from Tamlin.

    “Shit” she muttered.

    “Twilight?” Tamlin sounded behind her, and she stood to face him.

    “Tam…

    She couldn’t finish calling his name when she saw Slade entering the refectory.

    Slade’s entry made silence fill the building. Dead silence.

    Slade never enters this place.

    Tamlin looked back at Slade too, and when he saw the ring is back on his finger, he faced Twilight.

    “You gave him the ring? Are you serious right now?” He said disappointedly, and when Twilight made to talk, he saw the necklace is gone from her neck.

    “The necklace. Where is it?” He demanded.

    “It’s…” Twilight drawled, looking at Slade who’s still standing at the door like Satan.

    Tamlin faced Slade again.

    “Is it what I’m thinking? You took it from her?” He muttered hatefully, and he began storming to Slade.

    “You took it, is that it? Does she look like yours?” He said, pushing Slade’s chest when she got to him.

    Slade didn’t sway, just looking at Tamlin with those eyes.

    The refectory is still so damn silent like a graveyard, no one is coughing nor breathing at the palpable tension.

    Slade smirked and made to walk out…

    “You know you can act tall and mighty, but we all know it’s because of your stupid ring! You’re nothing without the ring and that’s why you’re trampling on people!” Tamlin shouted, and Slade stopped.

    “Without your ring, I can bet you won’t be able to throw me a punch successfully! You’re weak without it just admit it! You’re not even a man! You shouldn’t call yourself one! Get a skirt!” Tamlin rumbled again like a drunk.

    Slade slowly turned back, then he took two long steps to Tamlin before pointing his fingers forward.

    He slowly removed the infinity ring from his finger, then he gave it to Uriel to hold.

    “Heard you got three stabs on your chest” Slade said, getting a table knife.

    He drove the knife into his own chest three times, and students screamed at the self-harm as his blood wet his chest.

    Twilight was already freezing frightfully on her spot.

    Everyone is on their feet right now with wide, terror-stricken eyes.

    “Now we’re fair” Slade told Tamlin, and Tamlin gritted his jaws.

    He immediately threw a punch at Slade’s face.

    The punch met Slade’s jaw, and everyone gasped.

    Tamlin threw another one, and it met Slade’s nose, causing him to bleed out from the nostrils.

    He staggered, and students screamed again as Tamlin punched him in the chest this time, on the stabbed spot.

    Slade bled blood from the mouth, staggering again.

    Tamlin threw a kick next, and it met Slade’s jaw.

    Slade staggered back to the wall heavily, and Tamlin chuckled.

    “I knew you’re as light as a feather, bastard!” He muttered and rushed forward.

    He grabbed Slade’s neck, trying to lift him and throw him off, but it was impossible no matter how much energy he used.

    Slade raised his face slowly, and the menacing smile on his bloody lips made Tamlin’s eyes widen.

    “Are you done, kid boy?” Slade muttered wickedly.

    Before Tamlin could get it, Slade grabbed him by the chest, lifting him off the ground.

    “Slade no!!” Twilight shouted, but who’s she kidding?

    Slade flung Tamlin away like a toy, and Tamlin flew off to one of the wooden tables.

    He landed brutally on it, and the table crashed down, breaking violently.

    Tamlin went down in the middle of the ruins, and the wooden table pieces all fell on his head, covering him completely.

    TBC.

    ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

    ~ Dominic ~

    Alone amidst the clamor of laughter and clinking glasses, I found myself contemplating an escape from this farce they called an event. The air was thick with the scent of expensive cologne and the insincerity of self-proclaimed elites, all feigning sophistication while hovering like vultures over their intrigues. 

    Just as I was about to slip away unnoticed, a small but unmistakable voice pulled me back to reality. “Can I have a word with you?” The voice pierced through the ambient noise like a sharp blade, and instinctively, I turned. It sounded just like Genevieve’s sister, and I was certain it was directed at me.

    And there she stood, her eyes glaring at me with a fury that could rival a storm. The expression on her face was akin to that of someone who had just discovered I had cruélly harméd her beloved pet. I couldn’t help but feel a mix of surprise and wariness; normally, she couldn’t stand me. 

    Her gaze softened slightly as she saw the confusion on my face. “It will just be a few minutes,” she added, almost as if trying to reassure me. 

    Did I want to follow her anywhere to talk? Absolutely not.

    Yet, here I was—compelled to comply. If Adrianna King wanted to speak with me, it likely meant she had something significant to discuss, perhaps regarding the fact that I had offered her sister, Genevieve, a glass of water just an hour ago. 

    She led me through a narrow hallway adorned with extravagant paintings, each worth a fortune, and vases that gleamed under the soft lighting like jewels on display. I trailed behind her, the plush carpet muffling our footsteps, until she came to a halt at a door.

    “Ladies first,” I said, plastering on my biggest, most insincere smile, the kind I reserved for public appearances. She merely stared at me, unimpressed. 

    “Oh, quit it. I am not a fan of your pretend game,” Adrianna shot back, her practiced smile faltering, revealing the strain behind it. “You are not a gentleman, so don’t act like one.”

    “Oh,” I murmured, barely able to contain my amusement. 

    The intensity of her stare was palpable, and I met it with one of my own, neither of us willing to back down. There was a fierce audacity in her eyes, a spark that reminded me unsettlingly of Genevieve’s own defiance. 

    Where is my Vixen? I thought, an unexpected surge of longing washing over me. I missed her more than I’d care to admit. 

    Shifting my gaze from her to the door and back again, I shrugged. “Alright. Well, thank you for your kind gesture,” I said, stepping inside. 

    “Do you know why I called you here?”

    Woah, she wasted no time getting to the point. Quite impressive. 

    “I suppose you’ll enlighten me in a moment or so.” 

    “Hahaha, aren’t you just funny?” Her sarcasm was almost delightful. 

    A wicked smirk crept onto my face as I leaned in slightly. “What do you want, Ms. King?” 

    “It’s Mrs. Carrington,” she corrected, her voice icy. 

    “And I want you to leave my sister.” 

    Ah, yes. She had shed her maiden name.

    “No can do, Mrs. Carrington. I rather like my current arrangement.” 

    “Leave her.” 

    “No.” 

    “Mr. Morozov.” 

    “Ms. King—oh, sorry, Mrs. Carrington.” 

    A frown etched itself onto her features, and I couldn’t help but relish the sight of it. “Why won’t you leave my sister?” 

    “Because I love her.” 

    “I seriously doubt that. You look like you’re incapable of feeling anything close to love.” 

    “Are you judging?” I asked, raising an eyebrow. 

    “What if I am?” Her voice dripped with defiance, as if daring me to challenge her. 

    I could see where Genevieve got her boldness from; it clearly ran in the family.

    “Well, I’d like to disappoint you and tell you that you are wrong. I do feel, and I love your sister. I won’t let you break us apart.”

    “She is a kid.” 

    “She is not a kid.”

    “Would you let your sister date a man your age?” 

    “Well, that depends on who the man is.”

    “What if he’s an arrogant, overconfident man who thinks the world revolves around him?” she asked, an obvious jab aimed at me. “Would you let her date him?” 

    “My sister is smart. I’m sure she won’t make a mistake in choosing the right person. And there’s nothing wrong with being overconfident.” 

    “Says the overconfident man,” Adrianna shot back sharply. 

    “Or maybe you’re just underconfident, hmm?” I countered. “There’s nothing to worry about. In life, there are winners and there are… well, you know, people like you. Being bitter won’t help you beat me or convince me to leave Genevieve.” 

    “I’m not bitter. This is an elder sister worried for her little sister.” 

    “Did Mariah give birth? Because my Genevieve is definitely not little.”

    “I hàte you, and even if I didn’t, I still wouldn’t like you for my sister. You’re not worthy of her.” 

    “And how are you so certain?” I leaned against the doorframe, my confidence unwavering.

    “Because someone who wasn’t raised by a woman wouldn’t know how to love and respect one,” Adrianna replied, a devílish smirk stretching across her face as if she knew she had struck a nerve. 

    Don’t do it.

    She is Genevieve’s sister; she loves her.

    Do not do it.

    Calm down!

    I exhaled a breath intended to quell the rising tide of anger within me, but it only seemed to stoke the flames. I found myself closing the distance between us, my presence looming, hands shoved deep into my pockets, yet she didn’t flinch or shy away from my gaze. 

    “You’re right; I wasn’t raised by a woman. So you should know the hôrrible, hôrrible things a man without a mother’s love can grow to do. Would you like to be my test subject?” I could feel the tension in the air, thick and electric, as I pushed the boundaries of our conversation. 

    Just then, the door swung open with a force that made the hinges creak in protest, and a booming voice filled the space. “You will not speak to my wife in such a tone, Dominic Morozov.”

    The unmistakable presence of Xavier Carrington, Adrianna’s husband, filled the doorway, his posture radiating authority. The atmosphere shifted instantly, the air vibrating with unspoken challenges.

    “Perhaps your wife should learn to speak with a bit more caution.” 

    I could see the tension in Xavier as he bristled at my words, seemingly ready to defend her once more. But before he could muster a response, she interjected, a proud smile unfurling across his face like a banner. “Or maybe you should learn to be a gentleman instead of merely pretending to be one. Honestly, it doesn’t suit you. 

    “I hear no complaints from anyone else but you two,” I replied, my voice steady, even as I felt the heat rising beneath my skin. 

    “That’s because you’ve got them all wrapped around your lying, pretentious fingers,” Adrianna snapped, her tone sharp enough to slice through the thick air. 

    Isn’t it amusing? I call them pretentious, and they return the favor.

    “Leave Genevieve, or else—” 

    “Or else what?” My voice was low, simmering with barely contained rage.

    It’s one thing to murmur incessantly within earshot, another entirely to thréaten me. I despíse being threàtened; I relish the act of threateñing others, the thrill of executing those threàts is far more exhilarating. 

    I stepped closer, ready to demand what she thought she could do, but Xavier intervened, planting himself between us like a bulwark. He stood tall, his stature imposing, but I was no stranger to intimidation at six foot four myself. Yet, his defiance was unwavering. 

    He didn’t flinch when my heated glare bore down on him; instead, he returned it with a steely resolve. We were equal in height, and he seemed undeterred, as though my presence was nothing more than a passing shadow. 

    “Trying to put your hands on a lady?” Carrington’s voice dripped with disbelief and mockery, shaking his head in reprimand. “Tsk, tsk, tsk, Morozov. You weren’t raised by a brúte, were you?” 

    “Maybe I was, maybe I wasn’t.” I shrugged, feigning indifference, though my pulse quickened. “But mark my words: the next sentence that escapes her lips will land her in serióus tróuble. 

    “That sounds like a threàt,” Adrianna said, her voice steady yet tinged with an edge of defiance. 

    “Because it is, Adrianna. Don’t mess with me,” I replied, the tension simmering like heat waves on asphalt. 

    “Dominic,” Genevieve’s voice broke through the charged air, drawing all our heads toward the door. She stood at the threshold, her fist wrapped tightly around the doorknob, a picture of resolve. 

    A beat hung in the air before she stepped into the room, the rhythmic click of her heels echoing against the polished floor, each stride purposeful and elegant, demanding attention. 

    “Is this the type of man you want to be with? The kind of man who threaténs your sister?” Adrianna snapped, adding fuel to the fíre of my unsettled añger. 

    Genevieve’s gaze swung to me, and in that moment, her eyes spoke volumes—she was far from pleased with what had just transpired, her disappointment palpable. 

    “What? She started it,” I defended, the words spilling out with an edge of frustration. 

    If she hadn’t been yapping on and on, I wouldn’t have felt the need to issue a threàt that lingered dangeróusly close to reality. 

    “He is sorry,” Adrianna interjected. 

    “No, I am not,” I retorted, my glare locked onto hers as she shot daggers in my direction. 

    “Dominic,” my girlfriend, who should have been on my side, whined, her tone laced with exasperation. 

    “Baby, I love you, but there’s no way I’d apologize to her for a comment about my upbringing,” I said, the words dripping with indignation. 

    “You said that?” Genevieve exclaimed, her eyes wide with disbelief as her sister rolled her eyes in response. “That isn’t right, and you know it, Adrianna.”

    “What isn’t right is what’s happening between you two. You’re not good for each other, and sooner or later, whatever…” She waved her hands between Genevieve and me, her expression a canvas of displeasure, “this is, is going to come to an end, and the aftermath won’t be pretty.” 

    That was Adrianna Carrington’s way of saying this relationship would rúin us. It was clear she cared more for her sister than for me. She didn’t want me to rúin Genevieve—but did she realize it was her sister who was slowly ruiníng me?!

    “Look, Ria, I understand you’re upset, and we can talk about this, but not here. Not when Mom or Dad could walk in at any moment. Let’s meet tomorrow to sort this out,” Genevieve proposed, her voice steady, trying to diffuse the mounting tension. 

    Her sister hesitated, her reluctance evident, the thought of me being close to her clearly irking her. But a single glance at her husband had her nodding in agreement. Whatever silent communication passed between them was a mystery to me. 

    “Great. Where can we meet?” My Vixen asked. 

    “My penthouse,” Adrianna replied, eyeing me as if I had committed a grave sín. “I’d say I don’t want him desecrating my house, but he’s done that already. So, we can just meet there tomorrow at noon.” Her tone was sharp, a far cry from the pleasantries she usually offered in public. 

    I couldn’t help but recall the first time I had stepped into her house—the moment Genevieve and I had met face-to-face for the first time. I had been struck by the chaótic beauty of the blue in her eyes, a color that had captivated me from that moment on. 

    “Not going to ask if I have plans for that noon, are you, sister-in-law?” I blurted out, regretting it the moment the words left my lips. 

    All heads turned to me, each face a mix of disbelief and judgment. Xavier Carrington stared at me, incredulous, as if I were a peasant daring to address royalty. Adrianna, meanwhile, glared at me as though the very thought of me becoming her brother-in-law was an affront to her existence. If looks could kill, I’d be six feet under, buried alongside my parents.

    Genevieve, however, stared at me in a way that was both surprising and endearing—like she couldn’t believe what I had just said, but it was the good kind of disbelief, the kind that made her cheeks flush with color. 

    Before any further conversation could unfold, the door swung open once more, ushering in another presence. 

    Mariah King entered the room with an elegance that rivaled her daughters, her movements confident and commanding. She scanned the room, her gaze settling on each of us with a discerning eye. 

    “Dominic Morozov,” she cooed, her voice smooth and inviting, the soft smile on her lips almost genuine, as if she were welcoming an old friend. 

    “The one and only,” I mirrored her smile, extending my hand toward her. Her grip was firm, and as she accepted my handshake, her grin widened, revealing a warmth that contrasted sharply with the tension in the room. “Nice to finally meet you, Mrs. King.”

    “Oh, call me Mariah,” she replied, a hint of mischief dancing in her eyes. 

    Oh, please, get me out of here. 

    “Sure thing, Mariah.” I withdrew my hand, tucking it into my pocket, the heat of the moment still lingering. “The pictures don’t do justice to how beautiful you look.”

    Was that too cheesy? 

    Adrianna rolled her eyes, the gesture dripping with exasperation. Or maybe she was simply repulsed by my attempt at charm. 

    Whatever the reason, I noticed Mariah beam at my compliment, her smile radiating a genuine warmth that momentarily eased the tension in the air. 

    “Thank you. So, the rumors were true,” she said, her tone teasing.

    “It depends. What are these said rumors?” I asked, feigning innocence, my curiosity piqued. 

    “That you have a sweet mouth,” she replied, her voice playful, the glimmer in her eye revealing her enjoyment of the banter. 

    The next words threatened to spill from my mouth: “Your daughter can agree with that.” But I quickly stifled the thought, fully aware that neither Genevieve nor her mother would appreciate such a comment. 

    “I’m sure your girlfriend can’t get enough sweetness from you,” Mariah continued, her smile widening. 

    I couldn’t resist the urge to flash my signature smirk, casting a glance at Genevieve, who was doing her utmost to avoid my gaze. “Oh, she sure can’t,” I said, my tone laced with playful confidence.

    Before Mariah could respond, the door swung open once again, admitting another figure into the room

    Kyle Walker, her husband—the man who had takén my parents from me—entered with an air of casual authority. He strode in and placed a quick, affectionate peck on Mariah’s temple, an image of domestic bliss that made my gut twist. 

    “Oh, hey.” Kyle stretched out his hand, his demeanor casual, as if I would willingly engage with him, when the only thing I wanted to do was reach for a gún—or better yet, a kñife. A really sharp kñife. “Kyle Walker.”

    I took his hand anyway, maintaining the facade of a gentleman, forcing a polite smile onto my lips. “Dominic. Dominic Morozov.” 

    “Oh, I know. I saw you when you were nine, I think.” The moment those words left his mouth, my smile vanished, replaced by a cold, calculating glare. His own smile stretched wider, a grotésque mask of feigned nostalgia. “I was devastated when I heard the news.” 

    Of course he was. 

    “Yeah?” I muttered, my voice low, barely above a whisper, the weight of his words pressing uncomfortably against my chest.

    “Yes. Your father and I were on the way to becoming good friends when that happened.”

    That? He was referring to the déath of my parents as “that”?!

    He couldn’t even utter the words “my parents’ déath.” How utterly hypocritical of him!

    “Enough about the past.” Mariah King attempted to lighten the mood, her voice a melody of forced cheerfulness; it fell flat in the charged atmosphere. Anger simmered beneath my skin, and I felt the urge to escape before I lost control. “Why don’t we all have dinner together?”

    Genevieve and Adrianna’s voices collided in a chorus of surprise, both exclaiming, “What?”

    Dinner with the Kings? The very thought sent a shiver down my spine, a mixture of dréad and disbelief washing over me. How utterly delightful. 

    This was exactly how I envisioned my evening going—sitting at the same table as the man who had orchestrated my parents’ démise, sharing a meal with him and his family. The thought was positively spectacular, wasn’t it?!

    ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

    “Ace?” She called gently, he didn’t reply instead he wrapped his hands around her waist, his head falling on her shoulder.

    “Ace, are you okay?” She asked, he didn’t respond or move, she started panicking when he temperature drastically rose.

    She tried to move but he weight was too much so she turned to Betty who was already in tears.

    “Betty, help” She said and Betty wiped her tears, glaring at her.

    “You bitch!” She came over and forcefully pulled Ace’s hand away from Kitty.

    Kitty gasped as she staggered back, when she regained her stamina she looked up to see Betty already taking Ace to the bed.

    She laid him on the bed and checked him temperature, it was rising even quicker and his body was shaking.

    “What did you do to him?!” Betty yelled at her.

    “I didn’t do anything” Kitty replied, trying to come closer to Ace, Betty grabbed her neck, strangling her.

    “Stay away from him, you stupid maid! Wtf is your problem? My life was perfect before you came, I won’t let you ruin my life. I’ll rather kill you!” Betty sneered, tightening her grip on kitty’s neck.

    Her nails dug deep into kitty’s neck, making blood escape.

    Before Betty could successfully strangle Kitty, the door opened and Alicia walked in.

    She rushed to them and pushed Betty away, Kitty began to cough as she touched her bleeding neck.

    “Are you mad?!” Alicia yelled at Betty and Betty rolled her eyes.

    “The f+ck are you shouting at me! Look what this bitch did to Ace!” Betty replied and Alicia’s eyes traced Ace that was laying on the bed.

    His skin was already so pale.

    “Ace…” She rushed to him and touched him, her eyes widened when she felt his temperature.

    “What happened here?” Alicia asked, her eyes darting from Kitty to Betty.

    “Ask her” Betty replied, Alicia sighed and quickly took her phone, she dialed the doctor’s number.

    It would take a few minutes for him to get here so meanwhile, Alicia got a bowl of water and a small towel and massaged his body.

    “Can I help?” Kitty asked, coming closer and Alicia turned to face her.

    “Stay the f+ck away from him! I don’t know what exactly you did to him but if something happens to him, I’ll kill you. Everyone wants him to recover, not only you Kitty, it will be dangerous if you force him to remember, can’t you be patient! If you can’t then stay very far away from him or I’ll make sure you do!” Alicia scolded and returned to massaging Ace’s body.

    Kitty sniffled then gave Ace a long stare before walking away.

    Tears were already rolling down her eyes uncontrollably as she walked fast towards her room.

    When she got to her room, she began to ransack her closet for something, soon she found it. A lighter and a knife.

    ~BLAZE’S ROOM~

    Blaze was sitting in front of his dressing mirror as Snow gently brushed his hair from behind.

    “F+ck your hands are made of magic, I feel like sleeping off already” He muttered, closing his eyes and Snow pulled his hair.

    His eyes flew open with a frown and she giggled.

    “If you sleep I swear I’ll give you the worst haircut in history” She said, still brushing his head.

    “I don’t trust you with anything at all, not even my hair” He said and she faked a frown.

    “Really?”

    “No, baby, just joking” He said and she smiled gently hitting his head.

    “I know…..” She was about to speak further when a knock came.

    “I’ll go check it out” She dropped the brush and moved towards the door, a heavy frown settled on her face when she saw Stacey.

    “What is it?” She asked, coldly.

    “I want to see Blaze” Stacey replied and Snow laughed dramatically.

    “Why? So you can kiss him again and try to seduce him with you ugly body?” Snow said and Blaze covered her mouth from behind.

    “Gosh, you have such a bad mouth” He sighed and she pulled his hand away from her mouth.

    He looked at Stacey.

    “Well I’m fine, now leave” He said and Stacey sighed, bitting her lips.

    “I want to apologize for what I did and trying to threaten you” Stacey said.

    Before Blaze could reply, Snow spoke up.

    “Because I’m such a kind hearted person, I forgive you for everything you’ve done to my boyfriend. Now we’re good, so leave us alone peacefully” Snow said and slammed the door loudly on Stacey’s face.

    Her frown immediately disappeared and she faced Blaze with a smile.

    “Let’s go back, I’m not done with your hair” She took his hand and lead him back to the chair.

    He shook his head in amusement and chuckled.

    Warrior girlfriend.

    ~WEEKS LATER–KITTY’S ROOM~

    Kitty tummy was already enlarging but not too noticable, Alicia was telling her a list of things she shouldn’t eat and things she she shouldn’t do but she wasn’t listening at all, her mind was somewhere else.

    “Kitty…” Snow shook her slightly and she flinched.

    “What?” Kitty blinked.

    “Are you even listening?” Snow asked and Kitty sighed.

    “Can we not do this now?” Kitty said and climbed the bed, she laid down and covered herself with the duvet.

    “Come on, don’t be lazy or are you still thinking about him?” Snow asked and Kitty sat up.

    “I haven’t seen him for weeks, he’s always in his room and Alicia won’t let me in” Kitty said, staring at Alicia and she sighed.

    “Don’t look at me like the bad one here, I don’t want anything that’ll stress his brain right now” Alicia said.

    “What if he never remembers me?” Kitty asked.

    “He will just be patient” Alicia said and Kitty scoffed.

    “Be patient? I think I’ve done that way too many times my life” Kitty replied and went back under the duvet.

    “I’m sorry, I’m just trying to be careful. I don’t want to hurt him” Alicia mumbled.

    “And I’m always the one getting hurt” Kitty said, inwardly.

    ~BETTY’S SUITE~

    Betty had her legs crossed on the couch as Barbie did her nails in a mint green shade.

    “What about Ace?” Barbie asked, starting a conversation.

    “Just the way I want him” Betty replied with a sly smile and Barbie gave a confused look.

    “What do you mean by just the way you want him?”

    “Everything is perfect, just the way I want as long as he keeps taking his drugs, he won’t remember anything especially about that little maid. He didn’t even remember kissing her….” Betty chuckled.

    “You know she won’t give up, she’s definitely not going to let Ace go without a fight” Barbie said and Betty nodded.

    “I already have a plan, I mean two plans and I’m going with both”

    ~ACE’S SUITE~

    “Eat more Ace, you won’t because better if you don’t eat” Betty said, trying to force the spoon into Ace’s mouth.

    “F+ck, Betty, are you deaf? I said I don’t want to eat anymore!” He said, angrily and stood up from the chair.

    Betty sighed and stood up too, she took the dishes to the kitchen and dumped them in the sink.

    She moved to the living room where Ace was sitting, she heard the door open and she quickly sat on Ace’s laps.

    “What the….”

    “Just stay still” Betty cut him off as he was trying to protest.

    He was about to push her off his laps when Kitty walked in, and she wouldn’t stop staring at him.

    Is she sick in the head?

    Ace ignored her and picked up his phone while Betty slowly stood up, with a grin.

    “Why did you call me here?” Kitty folded her arms and Betty smiled.

    “I want you to cook something” Betty said and Kitty rolled her eyes.

    “Cos I look like your servant? If you want to eat then make it yourself or do you lack home training?” Kitty asked.

    “Aren’t you a maid here? You….”

    “I’m not a maid here, I got fired already so you have no right to call me a maid!” Kitty shot.

    “If you got fired why don’t you leave, why are you here? Aren’t you ashamed of yourself, you’re living, eating and living I’m such a big place without working? You’re a f+cking parasite!” Betty said and without thinking, Kitty gave Betty a slap.

    Ace’s head suddenly turned towards their direction and he stood up.

    “Are you a maid?” Ace asked and Kitty shook her head.

    “Then why are you here?” He asked.

    “Because of you” She replied and Ace scoffed.

    “Because of me? And when did I ever ask you to stay? Why would I ask someone I haven’t met before to stay?” He asked and Kitty blinked.

    “The day you get your memories back, I’ll make you suffer” She mumbled and his eyes darkened.

    “You’ll do what?” He asked.

    “I said, I’ll make you suffer so much, I won’t ever forgive you. Out of everything I’ve gone through, yours hurts me the most” She sniffled.

    “Get out” He said and she sniffled again, she turned to leave.

    “Wait…. Don’t only leave this room, also pack your things and leave this organization entirely. I would like to see how much I’ll regret it when I get my memories back” He smirked and she frowned.

    “What are you saying?” She asked.

    “You heard me right” He said, she gave him a long stare and finally walked away.

    Betty had a smile on her lips.

    ~GLENWOOD~

    Percy was done with her final papers, she was so tired as she sluggishly walked out of the hall.

    Jonathan walked up to her and gave her a bottle of chilled water.

    “Thanks” She smiled as she uncapped the bottle and took a sip out of it.

    Her phone rang and she took it out of her pocket as she walked out of the school, Jonathan was next to her.

    “Baby boo?” She heard Mark’s voice and smiled.

    “Is everything okay at home?” Percy asked.

    “Yes, dad is taking care of the Liv’s case and I told him about your mom, he’s willing to help her in business” Mark said.

    “I know you’re just being thoughtful but you shouldn’t have done that” She sighed.

    “Why?”

    “My mom is not the type to easily accept help, she’s definitely not going to accept help from your dad” Percy said.

    “I think I have an idea”

    “What?”

    “You’ll find out later” He replied.

    “I have to go now, I’m at school, I’ll call you when I get home. I love you” She said.

    “Love you even more” He replied, she giggled and ended the call.

    She looked up at Johnathan, standing in front of her.

    “I thought you said you weren’t interested in a relationship?” Jonathan asked.

    “At that time I wasn’t, and he has been my boyfriend for a long time, we just had some issues before but now we’re good” She said and he nodded, secretly folding his fist.

    ~KITTY’S ROOM~

    Kitty was all alone in her room, sitting on the floor, with a bottle of vodka in her hand, tears filled her eyes as she took occasionally sips.

    “H…how could he…say that to me?!” She hiccuped, then touched her stomach.

    “Baby, your daddy is a monster. I hate him, I hate him so much” She muttered, crying even harder.

    “Devil… bastard… Demon!” She slowly stood up, dropped her bottle and staggered out of the room.

    She just kept walking until she got to Ace’s suite, her eyes were blurry but she managed to type the pin and walk in.

    She looked around, he wasn’t there so she went in deeper, she was about to walk into the bedroom when she heard some strange sounds… Moans?

    “Oh! Ace!!.. faster!! Yes!”

    “Damn! Yes! Yes!! Ace!!!”

    That’s Betty’s voice right? So he’s f+cking her there?

    More tears rolled down her eyes as she turned around and walked away.

    As she left the room, she kept on crying harder, she wasn’t seeing her environment clearly, she was about to walk into a wall when a mobster pulled her back.

    “Ace…” She looked up at his face and blinked, then she hugged him tightly, wrapping her hands around his waist.

    “What the fck!” The guy muttered, trying to push her away but she held onto him tighter.

    Just the Ace was walking towards their direction, he was coming from his office, when he saw Kitty hugging the mobster, he turned around and walked away.

    Something is not right, it’s not his scent, it’s not him.

    Kitty broke the hug and stared at his face, her eyes cleared a little and she got a clear view of his face. It’s not her Ace. So he’s actually in there with Betty.

    “I… I’m… Sorry” She muttered and walked away.

    She continued with the tears as she got to her room, she opened her closet and picked up the knife and lighter.

    She stared at them for a while then threw them on the floor, screaming loudly.

    She buried her face in her palms and cried even harder.

    Why is he hurting her this much?! Why is life so unfair to her? Who exactly did she offend!

    Even if he didn’t remember her much he say such awful words to her? He said he never liked Betty so why is he f+cking her?

    If she keeps staying here, she would look too desperate, it’s better she leave and look for somewhere to live a peaceful life with her baby.

    “Bastard! I hate you!” She wiped her tears and stood up, she quickly packed her bags and pulled them out of the room while Milo ran after her.

    Luckily, Snow and Alicia didn’t see her, no one saw her till she got outside with her bags.

    She walked down the road with her bags, the alcohol was still affecting her a little, making her almost tip over at times.

    She finally found a taxi and waved at it, the driver stopped and helped her put her bag in the boot.

    She carried Milo and got in then she took out her phone then she sent a text to Ace.

    KITTY: I hate you, Ace!

    After she sent the text, she dropped her phone and looked at Milo in her arms.

    “You’re the only one I have now, I hate everybody else” She muttered, stroking Milo’s fur.

        The next day, she dressed up for school. On getting to the school compound she met Leonard standing at their class entrance.

          “Hi Rox”. He muttered unclear

         “Are you the door keeper or what?” Roxanne asked playfully.

          “Come on, I’m just waiting for you”. He smiled

          “Wow! It’s rare seeing you smiling”. She teased as they strolled to the class. They met Elia, Jason and Himal sitting doing nothing.

           “Hi Roxanne”. They chorused and Roxanne waved at them.

          One of the teachers came in, she was Literature in English teacher.

          “Hello class”. She greeted as she sat on a flexible chair. “Bring out your notepad and let’s work, today we’re going to practice a play tittle: Life in netherworld.

       So today we’re going on prologue and cast where as I will assemblage you into three groups, group A, B, C.” She paused for them to digest what she was explaining. Then she coughed a little.

        “You know classical modelling will be held in a week time so, I want us to be serious and co-operate because everyone must participate. We are going to have some external chaperone who will direct and guide you,

    So after the school closed you are to wait for practice. Are we clear?” She asked and some of the students muttered “Yes ma ” .

          “Any question?” Mrs challenge asked again but no one responded. “Ok let’s move on with the prologue “

    =======================

            After the school hours, they did the practice      and everyone went to his/ her destination while Leonard with his friends and Roxanne stood by the road side discussing the classical modelling.

           “What do you think about the drama “. Asked Leonard.

           “It’s awesome “. Roxanne said.

           “Boring “said Elia while the rest also complimented.

          “Roxanne can I see you privately please?” Jason asked.

           “Why would you want to see her privately.” Glared Leonard.

           “It’s none of your business, by the way she is not your girlfriend and not as if I wanna ask her out “. Jason replied and everybody burst out laughing as he walked away with her.

         “Roxanne don’t you think we can have special presentation on that day “. Suggested Jason.

         “I don’t understand you clearly, what are you talking about?” Asked Roxanne

        “Come on Anne it’s not a big deal, we can present a song “. He said softly.

           “Do I look like a singer to you”. Roxanne snapped

             “You can do it, trust me”. He whined

          “I trust no body can you just please leave me alone I don’t have interest”. She exclaimed.

             “Okay please do it for me”. He pleaded.

              She took a deep breath and sighed in defeat.   “Okay but I don’t want anything problem”. She said as they walked to where other stood.

     

           “Are you done”. Leonard asked with jealous.

          “Yeah” Roxanne muttered as she was about to enter her car.

          “Can I accompany you home”? Asked Leonard as also entered his own car.

         “Why will you do that ? Just go home okay, I don’t want to bother you. See ya in the evening”. She waved at them all as her driver drove her away.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

          “You need to cheer up Anne”. Convinced Jason.

          “How do I sing it then “? Roxanne asked nonchalantly.

         “Okay let’s give it a try “. Jason said as he sat before the keyboard .

    Jason: Hey girl where you get this your perfect killing shape, your beauty don blind me

    I beg let me love you uuuu…

    Roxanne: I never think of your feeling, I’m deeply into you

    If you go ntanta I go follow you oo

    Chorus: oh yeah let me love you love you love you baby

    Your love Don blind me

    They kept on singing, practicing and amending their mistake.

        “What about the play?” Asked Jason

             “Cool but I don’t know why Leo is backing out” said Roxanne. “I will be on my way now”. She said as she rushed out of the music room. She didn’t welcome the song she was practicing with Jason but she had to play along.

          “Hi Rox”. Greeted Leonard

           “What’s up Leo” 

    “Boring without you, can we go and get some ice cream” . He offered and she nodded.

            “They walked down to the cafeteria where they bought ice cream and milkshake, they sat down facing each other.

           “Leo I want milkshake, I don’t like ice cream”. Pouted Roxanne

         “I don’t want to give you”. He said

          “Please Leo please”. She sang

         He finally gave her the milkshake.

         “How about the play”? Asked Roxanne.

         “I’m not *interested* ” he said briefly 

        “In a matter of such importance, a responsible person must  not sit on the fence “. Preached Roxanne

          “Yes ma’am “. He replied in frustration

               Witty was Roxanne’s classmate who has a big crush on Leonard. The way Leonard and Roxanne was doing irritated her badly, she had two friends Anny and Rexy they were troublesome and people knew them as WAR . Witty decided to embarrass Roxanne whenever she had the chance.

          Roxanne was coming from the cafeteria when she encounter witty and her crew. She tried to give them a wide berth but it was too late they stopped her.

           “Leonard’s new girlfriend”. Witty said in mockery tone.

           “Thanks, can I have my way”? Roxanne asked

           “You are a whore and a bitch will always be a bitch”. Insulted Witty. 

    Many students had gathered to watch the drama displaying between them.

            “Witty watch your tongue because I don’t know the reason you throw to me the gauntlet”. Roxanne said trying to be calm.

          “You wan fight now fight me fool”. Witty said and Roxanne took a deep breath.

          “You must be silly Roxanne”. Laughed Rexy.

        “I don’t have time for you motherfuckers”. Roxanne said trying to Walk away but Anny pulled her back.

         “We’ve not done with you”. Anny said while Roxanne watched them helplessly. They thought she was powerless.

          “Roxanne stay away from my man, Leonard is mine or else you won’t able to watch the drama till the end.” Witty yelled.

           “Hmm so, am I here with you because of Leonard ••• oh … If that is the matter I will never stay away from him. You understand”? Roxanne smirked.

            “Why are you like this. Are you talking to me like that Do you know who I am . You are very stupid “. Witty shouted and Roxanne burst out laughing really hard.

         “Oh is the bag empty? Or you wanna cry, wait who are you? 

       Have you no shame at all at your age disturbing the whole school bullying everybody. Are you stupid? Are you dumb? You don’t even have any sense, you bring everyone so much joy when you leave the class. Were you born this stupid or did you even take lesson at all what’s wrong you this girl. You are so full of shit you bragging waggart, unctuous, sanctimonious, insipidity, out-dated•••• ” Roxanne began to rain big grammar on their. 

         Leonard and his friends were also there with many students watching the show. Witty began to cry while one of her crew Rexy threw a slap at Roxanne which landed smoothly on her cheek.

       Roxanne’s face turned red and she blowed Rexy ‘s mouth. They began to fight until Roxanne defeated the the three .

      

       “My name Roxanne, no one mess with me and go Scott free”. She said with pride and she walked away dramatically leaving everyone mouth teared.

              “Rox I’m sorry”. Leonard apologized as she finally caught up with her in the school library.

            “For what Leo?” She asked.

            “I’m deeply sorry, I don’t want the rope of our friendship to cut just because of this”. Pleaded Leonard.

          “I hold no grudges against you  , it’s not your fault anyway”. She said with a smile.

          “I can’t believe you are that tough”. Leonard teased

          “Come on let’s go to the class. We’ll be having Craft work in two minutes “. Roxanne said and they went to the class hand in hand.
