OLIVIA'S POV
“So, I need a Mojo, extra lime.”
I watched from the corner as Dave mixed the drinks. I wanted to be sure he was getting all the cocktails right and I had done my testing with names and their recipes.
“If I was a customer and I had to wait that long for a drink, I would not drop a tip. I told him smiling when he finally served my order.
He clasped his hands in his chest in a prayer as he waited for me to taste it.
“Hmm… not bad.”
He let out a huge sigh and smiled.
“I thought I messed it up. Whew!&rd

OLIVIA'S POVI hummed along with song blasting from my headphones, blocking out everyone as I sat in the cafeteria…alone because Dante who had asked me to meet him up was being delayed at baseball practice.The song was a new indie song I had found online and it was really good. It was a brief respite and escape from the world, so as not to feel the plague of not belonging in Wexford. I wouldn't say I was an outcast…yet. I just believed I hadn't found the group of people I could vibe with. This was not how I had expected my freshman year to be like though. I expected that I'd make friends easily as I did in Mexico. It had been a struggle here to connect with anyone or make friends. My standards were too high apparently. I was looking for Alicia in everyone.

SOPHIA'S POVThe rain had held me back. It was my fault for going over to Sebastian's place. “You know you can always skip a day,” He said smugly as he rested his head on his arm as he lay on the bed looking freshly fucked with that glow on his cheeks.I eyed him like he had two heads. “And do what?” I shot at him, “Lazily lay around like a bum? like you?” I jabbed.“Hey,” He replied with a serious expression on his face. He was never serious so he almost got me. Almost. His lip twitched then and I rolled my eyes, “Don’t be rude. I just gave you the best fuck of your life.”I snorted. “So you think you are the best I've had?” He had a confused expression on his face and he seemed to be scrolling in his head probably thinking of any stories I had told him of hot sexual encounters. I opened the blinds and as if it had been waiting for me, a clash of thunder and lightning at the same time struck, making me almost jump out of my skin.“Jesus!”“You’re the one insisting on going out.

OLIVIA'S POVI came in earlier than others to take vocal warm up lessons. I was not in a happy mood these days, thanks to an obscene amount of letters that were piling in the file Dante had chosen. Sometimes I read them, sometimes I didn't.The threats had become a regular aspect of my daily life, much to my chagrin. It was always something blood curdling or heart wrenching in those pages. A sentence, or a paragraph, or a word.I was starting to feel like it would never end. Linda was not happy with how close Dante and I had gotten, but she didn't know that these messages were only drawing us closer.But it bogged my mind still… did she really travel down here to send me death threats?&nb
HELLO, STEPBROTHER Chapter 34
OLIVIA'S POVI was still shaken up as I read the latest letter from Linda. The threats were escalating, and this one was the most menacing yet. "Cut ties with Dante, or suffer a fate worse than death." It was ridiculous, of course - Dante was my stepbrother, and I had done nothing wrong. But the letter was meant to intimidate me, and sure enough, it was working.I made sure to always show the letters to Dante, "I know you said you didn't want to, but I believe the police can handle this better than we can. We need to go to the police," he said, his voice firm. "It really is getting out of hand."I sighed and nodded in agreement. We had tried to handle it on our own, but it was clear that Linda was not going to stop. We needed help.
