"She left?" I repeated, totally disappointed.

"Yes," the receptionist confirmed.

I gnawed at myself as I processed the situation. "What an ungrateful brat she has become so daring unlike before,"

Returning the hotel key, I made my way to my car and drove back home. The throbbing headache persisted. I took medication to numb the pain, eventually succumbing to sleep to escape the pain.

I woke up, and my stomach rumbled, I held on and sat up on the bed when I heard the sounds of plates emanating from the kitchen.

"Is that Selena?" I asked myself, before I recall what happened in the morning, "Perhaps I'm still dreaming," I mused as I stood up from the bed.

I made my way to the kitchen, opening the kitchen door to see David sipping juice straight from the fridge.

" What do you think you are doing?” I asked, starling David as he quickly turned with the juice can on his mouth.

“ What's up, bro? I saw you sleeping when I came, so I didn't border you"

“ Oh!”

“ Your fridge is empty

    “What was that for?" Jasper demanded. "It is what it is," I replied, shrugging my shoulders. Jasper took hold of his fork and moved forward to get my chicken out of Selena's plate. I stopped his attempt, using my fork to block his. He moved his fork back trying to use it on another angle but I stopped him again. We started struggling not letting each other win. Unwilling to lose Jasper pushed my hand away with his left hand, and my hand hit the glass of wine near me, I tried stopping the glass from falling but it was too late as it poured on a man passing by all dressed in white suit. "What the hell!" The man yelled, drawing the attention of diners and staff, all eyes turned in our direction. "Won't you apologize?" I asked Jasper. "You wish!" Jasper retorted. “ Won't any of you say something?” The man yelled, “ how can you pour wine on me, to think am even wearing white, what the fuck…is this” he yelled again. Selena quickly rose up from her seat, and took a handkerchief from

    Jasper POV I couldn't handle how I was feeling after Selena hugged and kissed Colin. "You must be so happy she did that, huh?" I said bitterly. "Why won't I be happy? She has to hug me, I'm her fiancé," he retorted. My jaw clenched and I shot back, "She was," "I'm still her fiancé," Colin replied. “ And also You can't do anything about that, and besides, you can never come between us, so get the fuck off," Colin added. Enraged by his dismissive attitude, I closed the distance between us, grabbing hold of his shirt, "You wanna try?" I asked. "I would love to," Colin shot back. "Do you think this is still college when you took her away from me?" I seethed, filled up by my deep-rooted pain that had grown bitter over time for years now. "Yes, and I'll do that again and again, without her ever knowing what truly happened," he smirked. I can't take it anymore, Colin has bitten more than he can chew and am tired of it, I gripped his shirt tighter, moving my other hand backwards an

Noah Inman, is the owner and founder of IMG Models, and also my best friend. “I told the newly accepted models from the audition to come, so you can pick your choice, Jasper the ball's in your court fully," Noah informed me.

    I quickly posed "That's the style," Jasper remarked as he approached me. I met his eyes and nodded, taking a step back to adjust to the new direction. He looked at me for some time before he walked over to where the photographers were reviewing images on the computer. "Start!" the photographer called out, signaling the continuation of the shoot. I pushed my earlier feeling, focusing solely on my poses and expressions as I immersed myself in the shoot. Despite meeting Jasper's eyes while posing, I pretend not to notice his attention. While posing bringing out the bad bitch styles in me, the photographer chimed in, "Yes, I like that look. Give me a 'bad bitch' look." I adjust to the bad bitch setting, My training kicked in, allowing me to deliver the powerful look the photographer desired, showcasing my versatility as a model.

    Selena POV "Do you like Colin?" Jasper's sudden question caught me off guard. Shocked by the question, I turned to look at Jasper, my eyes searching his face to know the reason why he asked, but then he wasn't looking at me, he focused on the road. Realizing I couldn’t tell what he was thinking by just looking at him, I relaxed back on the chair."I don't know," I answered. "I really don't know. I'm not sure how I feel about Colin," I confessed. “Really? Are you sure about that?" Jasper asked as he turned to me for confirmation. "Yes," I replied. “ Then why did you hug him earlier instead of me, and to think you gave him a kiss isn't that too much?” He asked. “ I was so excited, Colin is the only one aware except Lisa about my audition” I replied. “ Why didn't you tell me?” “ You were busy, I can't bring myself to disturb you! Everyone knows how busy you are!” I replied. “ It doesn't matter if I am busy or not, just don't let Colin know something I'm not aware of.” He replied

    “ Yes, I’m privileged” I replied in-between tears. “ Do you know how girls sweep my feet, if you know that you should only please me and keep your mouth shut!” He yelled, before I could say another word his hand lashed out a slap on my face. I jolted awake immediately, gripping for air, I slowly caught my breath back and breathed down heavily, I sat up on the bed looking around if Colin was around me, relieved as I realized I was safe in my own room. "What the hell was that?" I muttered to myself, I tried to make sense of the vivid images that had haunted my sleep. I considered the possibility that the nightmare might be a reflection of my past or perhaps just a troubling dream. I pondered the possibility of it being my past, and I felt a nagging doubt. I realized that my knowledge of Colin was limited to what my mom and Lisa had shared with me, leaving me with gaps in my understanding of how our relationship was. and maybe, just maybe sometimes I didn't tell them some things jus

    " No, I mean Mr. Santos had an urgent business matter and had to leave for London last night," Mr. Inman said. “ Oh,Thank Goodness” I sighed, even though I'm still surprised by the unexpected news of Jasper's sudden departure to London. "Yes," Mr. Inman confirmed. After dropping the surprising news about Jasper, Mr. Inman turned around to address the bustling hall. "Listen up everyone! Since we have new models accepted into the company, all staff and models alongside me will be having a welcome lunch at the restaurant just a walk away from here. I have made reservations."

Glancing at the caller ID, I saw Jasper's name flashing on the screen. I answered the call, bringing the phone to my ear. "Hi," I greeted, unsure of what to expect and unsure of how to react. "Selena, I'm so sorry for not informing you about my sudden trip to London. It was a last-minute decision, but now I'm heading back to Boston Hills!" Jasper's voice crackled. "What?, that was quick! How did you manage to move so fast?" I asked, surprised by the sudden leave and arrival. "I have my private jet to

    Aviva POV My stomach fluttered as I stood there, still lost in the intensity of Levi's gaze. His words had hit me and had made my heart flutter, and I could feel blood rushing to my cheeks."I want you to know…." I trailed off and swallowed hard. "that I've never stopped thinking about you. I've missed you every day since we stopped talking, but I was too stubborn to admit it."We suddenly heard a door crack open and Levi quickly turned back and then faced me, " That might be my mom. She's on her way here to wish me good night. Can we meet tomorrow?""Sure," I stepped back, giving Levi some space, and tried to regain my composure. "Just tell me where and when."Levi glanced over his shoulder, listening for the sound of footsteps. "Meet me at the cafe downtown tomorrow at noon, We can talk more then."I nodded, and before I could say anything else, Levi leaned forward and pressed a quick kiss to my cheek. "Goodnight, Aviva," he whispered, his breath tickling my skin. Levi turned to le

    Aviva POVI gasped, shutting my mouth with my hands and pulled myself back into my room. I watched Levi step out of the car and glance over at our house. I can't let him see me. Dad had already issued his ultimatum and made it clear that I was on probation but still I refuse being on one. If Levi saw me trying to escape, he might try to help, and that would only make things worse. I held my breath and pressed myself against the wall, praying Levi wouldn't catch a glimpse of me through the window. After a few tense moments, I breathed a sigh of relief as Levi walked into their house ,probably not expecting me to be standing at the side of my window. The thought of Levi in town, just across the street, made me so excited. If only I could see him, talk to him, tell him what had happened. But that would be foolish, and I knew better. I stood in the darkened corner of my room, keeping a watchful eye on the street. It was getting really dark, and I found myself wishing for it to get very d

    Aviva POVDad finally turned to look at me, his expression unreadable. For a long moment, he said nothing, simply staring at me as if he were trying to see into my very soul.At last, he spoke, his voice as hard and cold as steel. "Aviva, I hope you understand the seriousness of your actions today. Not only did you endanger yourself, but you also brought dishonor to our family name. Do you have anything to say for yourself?"I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly feeling dry. "I'm sorry, Dad," I whispered, maybe this will defuse his anger, i bent my head, unable to meet his gaze so everything could die down. Dad's face remained expressionless, his gaze still fixed on me. "Sorry is not enough," he said flatly. "You need to understand that your actions have consequences. You were warned about associating with the Santos family, yet you deliberately disobeyed me. This will not be tolerated."I felt my heart sinking as I listened to his words, knowing that whatever punishment he had in sto

What happened?" she asked.The Vice-Chancellor cleared his throat, clearly uncomfortable with the situation. "I'm afraid there has been an altercation on campus," he began. "Both Aviva and Jeff Benson have been involved, they got into a fight, and there are consequences for their actions."Dad frowned, "What kind of consequences?" he demanded, But then turned to me, "Before that, Aviva, what happened? Why did you and Jeff…Ben get into a fight?"I swallowed hard, trying to find the right words. "He...he was being aggressive, and I tried to defend myself.""And why was he being aggressive?" my mother pressed, glancing at Jeff."Because..." I hesitated, knowing that the truth would only make the situation worse.Dad stepped closer, his eyes narrowing. "Because why, Aviva? Don't make me ask again."I bit my lip, feeling my heart pounding in my chest. "Because he was

    Aviva POV For a month I heard nothing about Levi, I tried his contact but it wasn't reachable, I got Sam's contact and asked him about Levi but he said nothing and told me he has nothing to say to me. " what do you mean you have nothing to say to me, i really want to know about Levi i haven't heard from him for a month" " That's none of my concern Aviva or whatever you are called" Sam snapped, " You messed with Levi and now you want to know about him, what audacity!" I stared at the screen of my phone, stunned by Sam’s words. How could he just brush me off like that? I know I made a mistake. Despite Sam’s hostility, I decided to keep trying to find out what's up with Levi. I strolled out the house and waited at our gate staring at the Santos house waiting to see if I would catch sight of Levi but I didn't for a week. One evening i waited, staring at the Santos house when I saw the house help walk out with a trash bag. Immediately I came out and followed her from behind, when she

    Levi POV"Are you serious?" I asked, glancing around, "Just because Jeff Benson wants something, doesn't mean he will get it. Aviva is a person, not some prize to be won."Sam shrugged, clearly unconvinced. "Look, I'm just telling you how it is. Jeff is the king of this place right now. If he wants Aviva, he'll get her. And once he does, she'll forget all about you." "You don't know Aviva like I do, Sam. She's not some shallow girl who can be bought with money or status and besides her Dad is rich."“ Oh come on, who doesn’t want to have fun with the big guys?” “ She isn’t like that!”Sam shook his head, “I get that you're all in on this, but you need to open your eyes, man. Aviva might be special to you, but she's just another conquest to Jeff. He'll get bored of her in a week and move on to the next girl, and you'll be left picking up the pieces."I scoffed, ignoring Sam's words. "You don't know what you're talking about. Aviva is different. She won’t allow that, I trust her with

It's a prestigious program, and not everyone gets in."I swallowed hard. "But I...I don't want to go."Mom's brow furrowed in confusion. "Why not? This is a great opportunity, Levi. It could open up so many doors for you and like you always say, you want to work on things yourself without your dad’s help, this is it."I shook my head. "I just…"I just don't want to leave," I said firmly, my eyes meeting Mom's. "I have my life here, my friends, my studies. And while I appreciate the opportunity, it's not what I want right now.""Levi, are you sure about this? This could be a life changing opportunity for you.""I know, Mom," I replied, "But I'm happy with the life I have here. I don't want to uproot everything for this program."Mom's expression hardened as she realized I wasn't budging. "Levi, you're being inc

"Hey, Mom," I said, the smile still frozen on my face. "What are you doing here?" "Oh, I was just in the neighborhood and thought I'd stop by for a visit. It's so nice to see you, honey."I glanced nervously toward the restroom, wondering what Aviva would say if she saw Mom here. "That's great, Mom. But I should probably get back to class..."Mom shook her head, putting a hand on my arm. "Don't be silly, Levi. I was hoping we could spend some time together," Mom said, her smile turning into a gentle pout. "I haven't seen you in weeks! You've been so busy with school and everything else."I sighed, knowing I couldn't say no to Mom. "Okay, okay. Maybe just for a little while."Mom beamed, wrapping an arm around my shoulders and leading me away from the restroom and toward a table. I beat her to it and sat on the chair faci
