Fury burned in my eyes as I glared at Tristan, my fist clenched and ready to strike. But just as I was about to pounce, Natasha stepped in between us, her emerald eyes blazing with a fire I hadn't seen before.

“Don’t even think about it,” she said. “Or you'll have me to contend with.”

My anger faltered, my mind racing with the complexities of our rivalry. How could she not see? Tristan was playing her, weaving a web of charm to mask his true intentions.

But explaining the history between us, the depth of our rivalry, felt impossible in this charged moment.

My brother, on the other hand, seemed to revel in the tension.

Natasha's words stung. How could the princess of a kingdom be so naive? Was she so easily swayed by a stranger's charm that she dismissed my actions out of hand?

“It is my duty to take care of new students. Don't think much into this.”I countered, frustration edging into my voice. “You have no idea who this guy is, Natasha.”

“Then tell me who the fuck he i

    Thirty minutes ago. Natasha My feet pounded against the polished floor, the thud echoing in the empty hallway. Every muscle in my body tensed with the memory of Kai's unnecessarily angry face and his infuriating secrecy. The way he'd tried to control me, just like back then… Worse still, I hadn't even forgiven him for the underground room’s incident. The measly fire he'd conjured. It was a fear tied to the darkness of the past, the memory of a thousand tiny tortures that still made my blood run hot. I couldn't believe I had ever trusted him. The fear I felt during the punishment wasn't just because of the flames. It was more complicated than that. Lost in my rage, I didn't see the hulking figure stagger out from the shadows until it was almost too late. It towered over me, its eyes burning with a malevolent fire. My breath caught in my throat. Consumed by anger, I was ready to take on anyone or anything. I posed for a fight, my fists clenched and my heart

    Kai Anger coursed through my blood. I felt all my muscles tense up while observing Natasha angrily leave the room, her rebellion feeling like a direct insult. My eyes quickly shifted to Xavier then back to her. I felt frustrated as I trailed behind her along the hallway. Every bend and curve she navigated ignited the flame in my belly. What was preventing her from simply hearing? Watching her forcefully close the dormitory door caused a new surge of annoyance to wash over me. Without hesitation, I stormed in, causing the doorknob to rattle in protest. She stood in the middle of the room, showing defiance and anger. Her eyes reflected my rage, although for completely different purposes. “What do you believe you are doing?” She hissed, her voice dripping with spite. I didn't answer her question, walking confidently towards her until we were just a few inches away. For a brief moment, her act of resistance weakened, as a hint of fear appeared in her eyes, leaving me unable to inte

    Natasha Days passed by quickly. I was gradually easing into the environment despite the weirdness of certain things. Sir Aaron was my new buddy if I were to give our friendship a tag. He was one of the very few people that hanging around felt natural. He was easy to talk to and be around and despite how subtle our friendship was, we didn't escape the claws and grips of girls who went out of their ways to craft lies and spread dirty rumors about what the both of us did together. “Pay them no heed,” He had said one morning and patted my head in a manner he must have thought endearing but it only ruined my hair even further. I wanted to ignore them, or at least tried to ignore the rumors for as long as possible until the one that actually broke the camel's back sprung forth. They went as far as saying I was dating Sir Aaron and possibly getting down ‘on my knees’ to maintain his attention. The fuck-? It wasn't until the stupid rumor was forcefully toned down, did I have the coura

    Xavier The Court was filled with students as far as my eyes could see. I stood in front of them all, with my hands behind my back in a stance. I watched them spar, as they used their hands to make swords and spears, all of them casting one spell or the other, and filling the air with groans. I was slightly impressed but still skeptical. They were talented, but it seemed that was all they were. They lacked control. The character. Strength of will. The duel was oncoming and not that long away. And I needed to make sure the students were ready. I needed to refine their edges and smoothen their reckless nature. They were all over the place and that wasn't a good thing. I needed them balanced… “Halt!” I suddenly yelled. All the students halted whatever they were initially doing. All the spells they had conjured suddenly dissipated into thin air. At least, they had discipline. Good. They weren't totally stupid. “You all have wild spirits,” I boomed. “Spirits that need to be t

    Natasha I was angry and I stormed off all the way to the dormitory. I didn't like the Academy’s training, and now, I really disliked Xavier. He was always too disconcerting and condescending. Couldn't he give corrections without condemning? Who the fuck did he think he was? At that moment, I just wanted to get away. I truly needed some sleep, one which I knew I wasn't going to get. The insomnia was becoming worse. And so were the voices in my head. At the rate things were moving, I might really go mad. I needed to get my hands on my draught. It had been on my mind for so long now, but I didn't know where I would get it from. I couldn't ask anyone, for the fear that it might be used against me. I went to the training today because I thought it would be different. But I was so wrong. Damned Xavier. I doubled my pace. I'd just lock myself in my room, lay on my bed, while I counted another failed attempt at trying to get some rest. I reached my quarters and did just that. But I

    KaiI sat there, tensed on my seat as I heard Mr Yao call my name. I gave off no outward reaction, neither did I take my eyes off Natasha.I'd seen her as she snuck into the classroom without Mr Yao's notice, and I wondered where she'd gone. Had she gone to talk to her new boyfriend?What was his name again? Ron something. Yes, Sir Aaron.Whatever they had going on, had been waxing stronger as the days went by, and it irked me to no end. Why was she so friendly with such a mediocre looking guy? I made an inward note to deal with him as soon as I could.I'd seen the way she looked at him. Her gay laughter, and all that. And it made me…angry.She'd never looked at me the way she did him. Presently, I watched as she resignedly leaned against her chair and tapped furiously on her locker table. All that, without taking a single glance at me, even though I was sure she was aware that I was staring at her. She was driving me nuts. But I was more angry at myself th

    NatashaI sat in the cafeteria all alone, watching everyone around. My classmates, teachers, and even students from other classes. I sat down with my plate in front of me. A plate of dumplings and spaghetti. I twirled the wormlike food on my fork and watched it mold into a ball, before slowly placing it in my mouth. I held it on my tongue and savored the taste. Although it didn't hold a candle to the meals I usually had back at Gavemorth, it was still decent enough.But I almost choked when I suddenly spotted Calise...I reached for my water bottle and chugged it down to clear my throat. I frowned and wiped my mouth with a napkin as I saw her from across the room, her eyes searching. Her hands held a tray with a plate of saucy beef and a milk carton.She walked past several free tables and straight through the cafeteria. She brushed past everyone, and maneuvered like she was walking on wheels. The hat she wore on her head rested there like an insignia of he

    Natasha I furiously stomped out of the cafeteria. Without squinting two times I strolled all the way down to the ladies room. I attempted to die down my weighty inhales yet the more I attempt to, the angrier I get."Ahhh!" I shouted in frustration, scattering the beautiful hairstyle I had on earlier. Seeing how rough my hair looks right now, I could easily pass for a lady who'd escaped the asylum.The entire situation was simply driving me insane"That damn calise! She should be tossed to the canines" I kicked the wall hard making me return in torment. "Ouch!" I fell on the floor with eyes nearly bringing out tears.I pet my toes, delicately blowing breeze on it through my mouth. But why'd I blow up in the first place? It's not as if Kai showed any interest in me, neither do I even like him. By the way, everyone keeps calling calise his sweetheart so… what exactly is my stress?"Hmm…I'm not angry! I'm just surprised at how they showed their affection rig

    The next few days following my claiming Kacie back has been the best days of my whole life.Going on dates, having sex countless times and to conclude it all, she and Rafiq became so close I feared she won't have time for me anymore. I've been begging her like forever to move back in but at the end she would just say "I'm not ready yet, and I'm working now.”So our everyday routine is:she comes to my house whenever she's off work, spend time with Rafiq and me which is never enough and then I'll drive her back home.“Hey.” I said to a very surprised Kacie clad in just a towel.We were supposed to go out on a date by ten but here I am standing before her eight on a dot. Don't blame me, I can't help it. I can't even concentrate in the office if Kacie isn't beside me.“Hi." She said slowly when the surprise of seeing me wear off then she stepped back to allow me inside.“Are you aware you're two hours early?"“Two hours? I'm a little late if I came two hours before the agreed time.” I wal

    “Do you think you can make it to my house tonight for dinner? My father is coming over so I thought it'd be nice to invite you guys.” I asked Eshe over the phone.“Sure. Of course." She answered giggling slightly.“I would love to."“Alright. See you soon." I said then hung up.Since my father said he was coming over for dinner today two weeks after we met. I'm so eager and anxious to see him again because he travelled out for business and he wasn't around. So we couldn't see each other and catch up on the time we lost although we talked twice on phone.I rushed to ask Josh who always looked like he knows much about my father to ask him what kind of dishes my father fancies.I wasn't so surprised when he told me Italian and Chinese food. I really have many things in common with my father, Now the problem is what should I prepare?Debating for more than an hour before I finally settled down to go for bruschetta, chicken parmesan and chicken pao.I glanced at my phone, few minutes past s

    “You've got any plans today?" Zayn asked me.I was about saying no when I remembered promising Josh to come over for dinner. “Yes.”I had to spend the night at Zayn's because Rafiq had begged me to and I couldn't bear to deny him his wish.He even asked me to wait and have breakfast together with them and God__It was the most awkward breakfast I've had in my entire life.If not for Miriam I sure would have lost my sanity right at the dining table. And finally after breakfast when I thought I would be free from both father and son and just head home, they both walked their way into the kitchen where I was helping nanny Miriam out with the dishes and dragged me out begging me to help Rafiq out with his maths.Actually it was only Rafiq that did the saying but I could bet my salary that his father filled his head up with words to use so I would find it hard to reject his request.And to Zayn's happiness I couldn't reject helping Rafiq which is the only reason I'm still here till noon wh

    “Kacie darling, it's so nice to see you." Miriam pushed past me and engulfed Kacie in a hug.“The house hasn't been quite itself since you left." I groaned at her tone. She's been fussing the entire month, right after I kicked out the fake Alessandra to bring back Kacie and build a perfect family.She wouldn't let me have a breath comfortably without bringing up Kacie.“I'm sorry ma. I didn't mean to leave in such a manner." Kacie apologize and kissed her right cheek.“It's fine, as long as you're back now. We have a lot of catching up to do." I almost coughed. How will she react if I told her Kacie is yet to accept me back. I don't want to imagine it at all.“Are you hungry?" Miriam added leading her inside the house. I shook my head and followed them inside. It would have been perfect only if she had accepted me already, then I would be rest assured and focused on dealing with my uncle.“Where's Rafiq?” I asked coming back into the living after searching upstairs without seeing him

    Looking down at my burnt waffles with sleepy eyes I cursed silently before discarding it into my trash can.I woke up few minutes to six thanks to the blazing hunger In my stomach. For the past five days I've been feeling weird: always eating, sleeping almost all the time and I suddenly developed a lazy attitude.Looking at my burnt breakfast in my trash can I hissed in frustration before grabbing a bowl. I poured enough cereal that on a normal day I won't dare to finish it, poured in enough fresh fruit and milk before walking down to the living room to eat.Who could be calling so early in the morning. I stared at my vibrating phone in annoyance before picking it up. It might be someone important.“Hello." I mouthed into the phone.“I thought you wouldn't pick up.” I pulled the phone from my ear and looked at the strange number.“Josh how many times did you change your number this month? And why are you calling me this early, You're supposed to be sleeping.”“Yes. But I just wanted t

    “This restaurant looks very fancy and beautiful but...Why is it empty?” her eyes were all over scanning the empty tables around us.I acted like I was surprised too because if she knows I booked the entire restaurant for our date, she's likely to kick a fuss.“You didn't book the entire restaurant right?" Her eyes were fixed on me.“I didn't. You don't really like lemons, why are you having lemon bar for dessert?" I asked before popping an apple pie into my mouth.I had waited until my mother healed up completely before I picked a date for our date. Much to my relief she and my mother relationship are back to normal which only means one thing. I'm one step to winning my woman back.“You really know a lot about me don't you?" She was smiling.I shrugged.“You were my fiancèe for a year it would be a shame if I don't know a thing about you."She smiled again then focused her attention and continued eating on her dessert.“I want to try new things.”I nodded my head.“Might I venture to ask

    I stared on as Zayn's mother breathing slowed down. I wasn't so sure if what I applied on her affected leg would help.The antidote I used was given to me by my late grandmother, I was little then__I never thought a time would come when I will have to use it. I've tried my best, the least I could do now is to wait for her to fight her way back because as it is now my life might as well be entwined with hers.I kept back the towel I used in calming her temperature down inside a bowl of water and carried it up to take it to the kitchen.“Don't you think we should take her to the hospital or should I call our family doctor?" Zayn asked from behind where he's been standing ever since I asked him to come back.“She will be fine.” I said. Even to my ears I sounded very unconvincing. “Let's leave her to rest, the venom will flow out of her system In a few minutes.” or hours.“After that you can take her to the hospital." I added so he might be at ease a little.“I'll just stay here with her.

    I sat down outside patiently waiting for Kacie to return back home from work. It's been two hours past the time her shifts normally end. I'm beginning to lose my patience, I really need to see her face. To hold her hand.The sound of a car driving in pulled my head up and made me stop fidgeting with my fingers.My eyes lowered down to the hands of Greg wrapped around her tiny waist and heaven knows I want to rip his flesh out of his damn bone.They both couldn't see me where I was sitting on her stairs giving Greg dangerous glares. To crown it all he kissed her on her forehead before going into his car. Hell she was even smiling and waving at him.I sat still and waited for her to come meet me and the shock on her face seeing me sitting there with my arms folded is priceless. “What are you doing here?" She asked quietly.“What does it look like pumpkin? I'm here to see you of course."She scoffed and brushed past me going to open her door. “Are you coming in or not?"“You don't need

    “What will you like please?" I asked whoever was standing before me without lifting my eyes up from the tumbler I was arranging.“Tonic and gin.”“Okay.” I turned back to the stack of drinks arranged on the shelf behind me.“Here's your drink__" my words got trapped in my throat as I stared at the man sitting before me.“Kacie?" He voiced out.“Y-Yes, I'm Kacie." I managed to say as I took the man in. Green eyes just that his were a little dark than mine. His hair color. This man sitting here__this man is my father.“Can we go out and talk, don't worry I talked to your boss already so you're free to come with me. If you want to." He added stressing out the 'if I want to'“Sure. Let's go." I ignored the voice yelling in my head that I barely know this man, I only found out two days ago that I have a father and mother other than the monster and beast who brought me up. But somehow I quickly felt safe the moment I laid my eyes on this man.I took a quick glance at Olivia who was standing
