It was any other day at International Sanders Academy and even though Vince was injured in a basketball game, the team was able to win the game. After a few days, Vince's knee injury was also treated so he can walk okay already.
Vince is now with Zend and Clyne and the three are talking while walking down the hallway. Even though Vince knew that his two companions were seniors and that they are studying in the other building, the three of them often talk to find time together.
It is also inevitable that whenever these three walk down the hallway, the women next to them often look at them because of their looks. Often, the center of their attention is of course the one and only prince of this school. Sometimes, some women envy the two with the prince because he acts so casual when they are with them, as if they are just hanging out... even though the prince's face is frowning.
But as they were walking, they passed a room with the do
Chapter 9It was a night like any other nights back in Barangay Dyes back inside the Hounded Pastry Café.It's almost 8 in the evening...“I'm sorry Xania. I really need to leave,” said Iris who was already dressed in her casual clothes.“It’s an emergency.”“Okay, okay,” Xania replied.“Even if she can do that tomorrow,” she whispered in the end.“What's that?”“Nothing,” Xania smiled.“Go ahead already. I thought it was an emergency?”“Promise Xania I'll make it up to you,” Iris said.“Yes I know. You can go already,” Xania said goodbye.Iris waved away while Xania waved back.“Waitress,” a woman called suddenly so she looked there.“Ah yes Ma’am.Coming right up,” Xania replied with a smile and approached them.And even though these
XANIAI was walking to school and I couldn’t help but yawn in drowsiness.I know I’m used to sleeping only 5 hours but I don’t know why I couldn’t sleep last night.I'll admit, it was the first time I experienced a hold-up last night at the café.And I came to know that those guys are looking for me.Even if they get caught, I can’t help but wonder why I’m their target?I yawned again.Hayst.Whatever those men want, it’s important they are in jail already. I'lljust take anapthis lunch to rest.I will hide from that monkey if necessary.Arriving in the classroom, I immediately went to my chair and sat down and without a word, I laid my head on the table.I'm just going to take a nap.About 10 minutes later, someone touched me.I woke up in no time and looked at that person... the one next to me.He said nothing and just frowned back at
Chapter 10Vince remained shocked in his place because of the eyes he saw... eyes that are... what is it?What kind of eyes are those?Why is it so...“Prince Vince...” one of the women called so he just went back to reality and looked at the woman.“...are you okay?”she asked.Vince's facial expression gradually became more serious as he looked at the woman.“What happened here?”Vince's venomous question started to scare the women.“Uhm no-nothing much Pri-Prince Vince,” the woman replied.Vince frowned.“It's just—”“Nothing? Why is Xania so wet?”he asked them aloud.They were speechless because of his outburst.Anger began to show on Vince's face so it scared almost everyone who saw it.“You three are going to report to my office tomorrow first thing in the morning!”he pointed to t
I was shocked at his command once I looked at the three witches who suddenly bowed their heads in shame and could not look at me.You know, I really want to get back at them.I really want to choose not only one but all three of them so that they can see the ferocity of their badboy prince but... I looked at Tsong.Wait, why is he doing this again?“Well then, choose Xania,” Tsong angrily told me.And early in the morning, the baboon is angry.Just a few minutes have passed.Nothing has really changed.I just sighed first.“I’m not picking anyone,” I replied to his surprise.“Huh?”he wondered.“I already said it. I will not pick anyone,” I repeated.“What do you mean you will not pick? Are none of these three are the ones I'm referring to so you can't choose?”he asked.“Please Vince, can you stop acting l
Chapter 11 The weekend came and here I am now, at work because I don’t have school.I'm really grateful to Ma'am Safira and Axton so I'm fine now and able to work, but... “Don't thank Axton and me. If it weren't for Jacky and her nephew, you might have been worse off…” And just after that, Ma'am Safira suddenly reprimanded me for lying that I would not go to school and for my stubbornness.I was really embarrassed because when I came here to work, that was exactly what greeted me.They almost all saw how Ma'am Safira scolded me.It was good that she waited for me to be healed before she scolded me. It's really my fault.It would be hard if people found out I was a beast in no time.The medicines that a normal doctor will give when you are a normal person are not suitable for us beasts.It's a good thing they didn't have to take a blood sample to give it to a laboratory because if not, the past may repeat itself.
... Knock, knock. “I told you...” Vince said angrily.“...that I will not eat—” He stoppedfor a while when he sawwho was entering his room with a tray of his food and medicine.We stared at each other. “Special delivery for a baboon who is also a prince named Vince,”Isaidfull of sarcasm while smiling. The prince was annoyed because his forehead suddenly wrinkled.He’s already sick yet he still looks like a baboon. “What are you doing here?”he asked me in wonder and it was obvious to me that he was only holding back his anger becausehe wasoffendedby what I said. “Didn't you hear? Is your sickness so bad that you can't hear me anymore?”my answers. It looks like the heat of his fever has increased because of anger.“Can you just leave if you have nothing good to say, Xania?” he sneered.“And I'm not in pain—” “First of all...” I in
Vince was waiting in the room when the door suddenly opened. “Great. Doesn't anyone know how to knock—” Vince stopped when he saw Xania about to enter but when she heard that, she immediately closed the door. “Wait—” Wumpth.She closed the door.Vince began to get annoyed Knock, knock. “Come in,” Vince replied. The door opened and Xania smiled.“Food and medicine for the prince,” she smiled once entering and closing the door.“I'm sorry Tsong if I didn't even knock.” Vince should have been annoyed at the first thing she said because this woman seemed to be insulting him again but it also disappeared when he saw her smile and heard her apologize. “Just put the tray here next to me,” Vince ordered which she did. “Manang told me that you need to eat this hot porridge she made before you take the medicine and rest,” Xania said.“I’ll just put this tray on your lap b
Chapter 12When Vince parked his black car in the parking space reserved for him at school, he also pressed the remote of his car to lock the car doors.He was already at the entrance carrying his bag and stopped for a moment at the person he saw.“Xania?”He immediately caught the attention of the person he called who was leaning against the wall of the school entrance as if she’s waiting for someone.“Vince,” Xania called and immediately approached him.Vince frowned.“What are you doing here? Did I tell you to wait?”Vince asked.“No you didn’t,” Xania replied.”Bu-But I heard about what happened to you last night. Are you okay?”Xania asked worried.Vince didn't immediately say a word about the woman's attitude.It's so not what he knew about her.“How did you know?”Vince still wondered.Xania was s
“Ma'am,” a person called suddenly who broke the silence once the two looked at him.“Geoffrey,” Axton said.“Ma'am, Xania is awake,” Geoffrey said.The two were surprised and looked at each other first, before they thought of going back to the clinic at the same time.When they arrived, Yune, Iris, Lizar, Willow and Oriana were still there while Xania was lying on the bed, her eyes open and glimpsed at the three of them before averting her eyes. Ma'am sighed and looked at the others.“Can you leave me and Xania here first?”Ma'am asked, and each of them also answered “Yes” or “Understood”.After they left, Ma'am Safira looked at Xania again but she’s still avoiding looking at her. Ma'am Safira took a chair and placed it beside the bed and sat down.Silence passed between them.When Ma'am Safira's sigh broke it.“I know you're angry, an
After Ma'am left, she reached the shore of the sea because that clinic was so close to it.Now, with no one to see her, pity and grief carved on Ma'am Safira's face.She remembered clearly the look on Xania's face as tears flowed down her face… especially when she remembered that night...No one actually knew that Safira was able to follow Jacky to the building where the organization of Mr.Victorino is.Using her wings, she followed Jacky through the sky.She found it difficult to enter because of the number of people on guard so she knockedthem downone by one so thatthey wouldloseconsciousness.She's using her tails to each person seeing her entering the building at that time and ensures that whenever they lose consciousness, they will not remember they saw her.Using the extended ears on her head as one of her tails, she heard where Xania was imprisoned that's why she came rus
In a dark room, with only the moonlight coming from a window that illuminates that room,Vince is standing by the window staring out in the open like he’s waiting for something.No one knew what he was thinking now asheactuallystared out the window.The silence was interrupted with a knock on the door.Vince said nothing when it opened on its own and his Auntie showed up.“Hey,” Ma'am Jacky smiled at him.Vince didn't say a word but weakly smiled back at her as his reply.“Sorry it took a while,” Ma'am Jacky said and went inside the dark room.But someone came in next.She closed the door and didn't even turn on the light of the room… because there was no light bulb either.She positioned herself in front of the two with her arms crossed on her chest.“So, are you two ready?”Ma'am Safira asked seriously.Ma'am Jacky and Vince looked at ea
~~~Mr Victorino is inside his room having his coffee when there is a knock on the door.“Come in,” he commanded and it opened.Mr. Victorino was surprised at whoentered but he immediately smirked.“Wow. You're early Jacquilyn,” Sanjiro said.“I always keep my word, Sajiro,” said Ma'am Jacky.Sanjiro let out a sigh.“There you are again.”Jacky just answered him by rolling her eyes.“So, where is my nephew now?”she asked.“Hmm, actually—”Knock, knock.Sanjiro didn't finish what he was going to say because of the knocking.The two looked at the door because of that.“Sire,” Cliffton called.“Yes Cliffton?”Mr. Victorino replied.“Your son went atthe basement,” Cliffton replied.“Oh great timing,” Sanjiro finished his coffee a
Jacky looked back at Sanjiro.There was silence again before it was broken by, “I understand,” Jacky said.“But didn't you at least even think about how Vince feels towards the beast?” “Ugh,” Sanjiro commented immediately.“Feelings? How could you possibly say that my son has feelings for that animal? My son knows that that beast killed his mother and I know he will kill that beast in his anger.” “But what if that beast didn't actually kill Ate Victoria?”Jacky asked. “Oh come on Jacquilyn,” Sanjiro retorted.“Why are you siding with the beast? Do you know that creature?” “Yes,” Jacky replied.“And I know, beast or not, Xania will never do that.” Sanjiro was shocked.”Xania? Where the f*ck did you even get that name?” “It's the beast's name,” a voice interrupted so the two looked at the speaker.The two were surprised to the one who is standing now in front of the door. “
Chapter 25After Ma'am Jacky contacted Vince's three friends, she’s now riding in a taxi telling him an address in Barangay Tres that the driver didn’t know. So with that,Ma'am Jackyjustpointedthe way there.They were on a dark road but Ma'am Jacky immediately noticed a black car parked.“Wait, stop,”Ma'amorderedimmediately and the taxi stopped.“You can drop me here Manong,” Ma'am said as she took the money from her wallet and gave it to the taxi driver.“Just keep the change,” as she got out of the taxi.When the taxi left, she turned on a flashlight on her cellphone to see the road.It was good and she still remembered the way here.Arriving at the end of the forest, she immediately saw the large building uphill.There was no hesitation that she went there immediately and didn’t even mind the men surrounding and
Vince couldn't believe what he was seeing.As a result, he even dropped the tray he was holding.What really surprised him because the creature inside the cage... is a woman lying on the floor unconscious and alotof scratches on her body and face.“Xania?!”Vince shockingly said.The girl didn't respond so Vince immediately approached the mirror and tapped on it repeatedly.“Xania? Xania, wake up!”Vince shouting behind the glass.The sound on the tapping of the mirror is the reason Xania gradually regained consciousness and opened her eyes.She looked what's behind the glass so she squinted her eyes.There's a man in that same suit that is standing right in front of the glass.What is this again?What's this guy doing here?Is he one of the men who will feed her again?Is this another man that she has to kill again?But how can she?She no
...Vince is inside his car right now driving in the roads of Barangay Tres.Using a new GPShe installed in the car, he went to the place where the man could be.It was getting darker around where he was driving and it seemed like sometimes Vince couldn't believe that he was still part of Barangay Tres.He even thought he was lost.He stopped at a placewhere the GPS took himand he looked around him but he couldn't see anything, justtrees.He seems to be fooled by his GPS.Is this even the right place?He got out of his car, put on the hood and with a flashlight in his hand, he looked around.He should havethought of bringingtheGPSof that man’s tracker.He thought it would be easy to go to the place at that address, but this is the situation of the place in reality.He was not afraid of the dark and kept looking around the dark forest he is in. 
Chapter 24When the three left, it was quiet inside the mansion now.Vince is in his room wearing shorts and a sleeveless shirt while standing beside the window of his room and through the moonlight coming from it, he looked again at the black card he was holding.There’s a lot going on in his mind now, after what happened earlier.“...don't call the number.”F*ck, and it was even Zend that really said that so how can he not be bothered?He seemed even more tempted to call the number....That night, when Zend came home, he was in his room now holding his cellphone.He opened it and went to his contacts and pressed a number for a call.The call is ringing so Zend puts it to his ear waiting for the other person to answer.“Hello Zend?”the answer on the other line.“Hello Ma'am Jacky,” he replied with a smile.“What is it now?!”
