Finn"Finally, the day has come." I said, in happiness.I got so nervous and curious that I changed my clothing several times just to ensure I look as charming and cute as I have always been. But this time, I want to look different from how I used to.When I finally selected what to put on, I invited a hair stylist that would make me look cute and handsome.While I admired myself in the mirror, Mother walked in and complimented me with a smile.I smiled Likewise, "Thank you so much mother," I appreciated it.Mother moved closer, taking a good look at me" You seemed happy in a different way. Tell me what is making you so excited" she said.I chuckled "It's nothing serious mother. I'm happy to see myself looking so good" I replied."Finally, you would be introduced to everyone" she said with a smile, assisting me with the principal cloak.I sat down facing the mirror as my mother placed her hands on my face "You look totally different in this attire. But why didn't you show yourself to
FinnI was properly introduced to everyone, they were all shocked and exclaimed when they saw me.Deep within me I was happy and had laughed from seeing the faces of everyone. It was a good thing I showed up at that point in time. I was able to give the punishment to those who deserved it.My father's Right hand man directed me to the seat they had prepared for me as the principal. But before going to take a seat, the whole audience stood up to pay respect to me.They bowed their heads and saluted, "Good day principal," they greeted.I raised my hands with a smile on my face" Greetings to you all." I replied. The officer came closer and stood beside me, placing his mouth beside my ears."Your highness, would you like to say some words to them?" My king's right hand man asked. I thought of it as a very good idea to say a few words to them.I shook my head. '' Yes" I replied."Alright everyone, the principal has some words he would like to say to us," he announced.I took a look at eve
EverestI was so shocked and surprised when I got to know that the so called stranger was the principal. How on Earth could it be? How could he be the principal and react in such a manner that could be impossible to believe? I wondered. A Lot of thoughts go through my mind. I felt ashamed that I wouldn't want to meet him face to face.What then do I do when he shows up right in front of me? I took a deep breath to calm my nerves a bit.I recalled the moment we spent together. They were indeed a memorable one. How could I possibly look him in the eyes like I used to? Knowing fully well that he is the principal? My heart beats continuously.I couldn't control the way I felt. I was troubled and shocked at the same time. Whenever I think of how we first met, I feel embarrassed.I couldn't think straight nor could I get my mind off it. While we all gathered at first, I wondered what the gathering was all about.All of a sudden he appeared from the middle of nowhere. The process at which
Everest"Thank You, Elena," I cooed in appreciation.Just when I appreciated it, I heard the sound of the door and immediately, the door opened wide.My heart skipped at once. Then I realised it was Alice."Elena, who is Elena?" Alice questioned, raising her brows at me.My heart raced heavily as a result of how she startled me. At that point I was speechless."Why would you barge into my dorm in such a manner?" I questioned.Alice walked in majestically even without me giving her the go ahead to come in." Don't even try to change the topic. I asked you a question, answer me!" She yelled at the top of her voice.I cleared my throat." What right do you think you have to raise your voice at me? Listen to me, you have no right to ask me questions" I glared at her.Alice bursts into laughter," Wow! Just wow! I can see you've changed. You now have the confidence to challenge me even to the point that you now look me in the eyes" She applauded as she made a mockery laughter. Just when she i
EverestAlice was indeed the princess of stubbornness, if there was really a kingdom with such a title, she would be chosen as Queen. Even after pushing her out of my room, she forced her way back in. At this point I was already so exhausted. She really had a way of creating unnecessary scenes. I could clearly tell she was gnashing her teeth in anger. But even at that she was still beautiful. "You don't push me out against my will. Listen to me again, what's your name again?" She sneered. I maintained silence, I wasn't in for this. "I don't know how much you must have given the principal or how callous and cheap you were to give yourself to him but trust me, you wouldn't succeed in your attempts. Trust me, I would make sure of that. You see this Alpha princess over here, I would be just like a bone stuck to your throat. I would choke you to death." She said with a resolute tune. Her warnings sounded like empty threats. I wasn't threatened by her words, yes, then, her insults and ac
Everest"Something like what?"I moved an inch away from her, I knew she could hit me for what I'm about to say. "Like a break up with the prince, this is really unlike you. You're sounding too nice." She punched my arm with her elbow, "Ouch! What was that for?" I said pouting. The hit was so painful, I rubbed the spot to ease the pain. "What do you mean by being so nice? I was never wicked to you was I?" She glared angrily at me. "You just want to ruin my mood, you don't like the fact that I'm being so good. There's nothing like a break up, so swallow those words of yours and focus on your stay here." She sighed. "When I first found out that I was going to have a sister, I felt great. The thought of having one sounded fun but later my mother explained things to me. I could see the pain in her eyes and this broke me." She continued. I stayed silent listening to her, I could tell that she still had more to say. "Since you brought her so much pain, I gradually developed a dislike for y
FinnI couldn't get the thoughts of Everest out of my mind. Having formally introduced myself as the principal to her, I was rather expecting Everest to confront me or better still question me for some issues but she didn't. At that point in time I felt uneasy. My mind was diverted as a result of that. How on Earth would she react normally as if nothing had happened? I expected a change in her attitude or maybe something to give her confidence that I am fully capable of taking good care of our child. Besides, I was fully ready to take the responsibility at any cost knowing that it belongs to me.I attended several meetings but found it really difficult to concentrate. I checked around for her but haven't seen her lately. All I did was sit in order to calm down a bit. "Why are you still restless?" My wolf asked.I took a deep breath,"Actually , I find it uneasy and right now I feel unrest because I have covered lots of thoughts," I replied."You really need to calm down. Being in su
"Everest, Hold on!" I exclaimed, as she paused while her back faced me.I walked towards her to have a conversation with her but it seemed like she didn't want to talk to me. But even at that I was persistent and wasn't discouraged."Please wait! "I pleaded as I showed up at her face, giving her a sad look. What I realised was that she couldn't look me in the eyes. Her head was lowered.I could feel my heart beat heavily, so also I could hear the sound of her heart beat. That implies that we both felt the same way for each other but she seems to challenge the feeling.I sighed,"Everest, look up! Take a look at me!" I placed my hands on her jaw, raising her head. Without letting me lift up her head, she did it herself. But that wasn't enough to push me away.Everest cleared her throat."Good day principal!" She saluted, as she bowed her head. The formality she showed me made me feel hurt. It was unlike her to behave in such a manner with me. I was used to the way she was so free with me
SeleneI couldn't just get what was going on. It's been several months since I set my eyes on Everest and now that she had returned, she was acting strange all of a sudden. I could say that I was completely in a confused state. As a matter of fact, It was so terrifying to behold. I just couldn't explain what it was all about. I stood still watching all Everest did and could say nothing. I watched her being taken away. Afterall, I didn't give a fuck.Miss Phoebe folded her arms as she stared at me. "Are you just going to stand there?" I sighed. "Of course I am. What on Earth do you want me to do? Do you expect me to run along?"Miss Phoebe chuckled. "You're unbelievable! Don't you know what she's going through?""As if I cared."She glared at me. "Just so you know, Everest is suffering from an illness, a severe one. She has schizophrenia!" She announced.Her response turned out to be a shock to me. I widened my mouth in surprise as I exhaled. "Schizophrenia?"She shook her head."Yes
Finn “I…am…Emily!" Caleb also burst into laughter."So you were the one who had taken Everest out of the academy huh?" She shook her head. "Apparently. Well, the academy was so boring to stay in and so I was in need of something to keep me busy or better still give me fun. And you know how that can be. I can't imagine that brother could be so blind, he was blind that he had suspended the innocent girl without making proper investigations. And if only he did a proper investigation, he would have known that it was Alice behind the whole thing. Caleb furrowed his brows in surprise."Alice behind the whole thing?" "Yes. And not only that, she had also tried to kill Everest but ended up killing one of the contestants." Having heard her response, I was shocked. I was amazed she knew all of this all along. And heard I was still investigating and was unable to trace Alice. What then, have I been doing? I wondered in guilt. Caleb folded his arms as he stumped his feet."I said it! I kn
Finn Seeing Everest go through such pain made me feel a huge sympathy for her. I felt hurt to see her behave in such a manner. She was completely innocent after all. And once again she had to go through such trauma. It's so sad that I couldn't do anything. And even if I were to do something it won't change anything. As she had stood before me with a smile, I was helpless and totally devastated. The only way we could calm her down was only when she black out. I can imagine the pain she was going through. I clenched my fist in anger having recalled the response which my parents had made concerning her, and to top it all, right before my presence. After she was knocked out, she was taken into a private room so she could take some rest. But then, I spent some time with her before I decided to return to the palace. Having seen her in such a condition I got really pissed. It was all absurd. It turns out that she wasn't lucky after all. Caleb and I returned to the palac
EverestOf course I know! And so also you are my only friend." "You actually came at the right time. I know you would never lie to me but rather tell me the truth. Everyone here seemed to say things which I don't understand. Tell me what they had done to Elena. I want to know where Elena is at the moment. Is that why she's in hiding, what did they do to her?" Adrienne smiled gracefully."Everest, you don't have to worry. They did nothing to Elena. Absolutely nothing! Oh goodness! Is that why you're panicking? Come on! Cheer up now, Elena had stepped out. She went on an errand. As a matter of fact, she went to get you a surprise gift. Besides, I'm not supposed to tell you because it was meant to be a surprise."I heaved a sigh of relief and burst into laughter as I let out a perfect smile, facing the others. "You see, I knew it! After All, I knew I wasn't insane nor was there anything wrong with me in the first place. So why would you all say that I'm mad, that I had lost my sanity? E
EverestAfter a series of pains and tears I let out, I couldn't keep up any longer. I was as weak as a cat. While in search of Elena, I shouted and shouted but there wasn't a response. She didn't turn up anymore. I was confused and devastated. Totally exhausted!In my current condition, it isn't advisable as a pregnant woman to move about in such stress and tension. It could equally affect my unborn child in any way. There was no way I could stay back any longer. And having recalled all that happened, my heart hurts.I moved towards Miss Phoebe. She stood still as she watched me search for Elena. On second thought, Elena must have returned home. I concluded. All that had mattered to me was to find her as soon as possible.And from the look of things the perfect the place to find her would be at home since she was nowhere to be seen around the arena. I would use the opportunity to confirm things for myself.I stared at Miss Phoebe with a sad face as I reached out to her. "Miss Phoe
Everest I staggered backwards in shock as my heart raced heavily. I widened my eyes in shock, it seemed my senses were failing me. What was all this? No! No! This can't be happening!! My heart beat changed completely, the fast rhythm felt like it was going to pop out of my chest. Paraventure If I was told such a thing would happen on such a special day. A day which I hope I would never forget as a result of the excitement I felt, I would never have believed. Who would have thought it could happen? There I was overwhelmed with Joy not knowing that my past would come hunting for me in the future. I must say that indeed, everything had worked out according to how Alice had planned. She let out a sinister smile as she displayed it. The more the audience spoke harsh words, pointing a finger at me, the more excited she was. So this was her plan all along? The moment she stated she had something to say to the audience, my heart skipped though I had no idea what she was gonna say. Deep
Everest You don't have to worry, I'm here for you." "Prince Finn! Leave that insane lady immediately and return to your seat, now!" The king commanded, yelling at the top of his voice. I trembled in fear. The prince didn't make a move. But the look I got from everyone was terrifying. They all stared at me like some piece of trash. Staring at Alice once again, she was having a smirk on her face. Adrienne on the other hand stood aside in fear, I could tell that she was worried and tensed for me but could do nothing. His parents had gotten furious already. They couldn't stand my presence any more. And I very well know that what got them more pissed was for the fact that their son had supported me even when they had declined. Even after receiving support from Prince Finn as I tried to get on my feet, I just couldn't. My legs were shaking massively that even I myself had no idea of what was going on. Thank goddess that he was beside me and had also chosen to stand by me. But the
FinnI welcome you all to the twenty-first anniversary of the Luna academy, where the winner of this year's competition will become the Luna. And according to our principles, the second best would be allocated to the remaining princes. So also goes for the third best and the rest, they would be allocated to the other royal princes and the Betas." We all applauded at once with smiles on our faces. Not only did he make a welcoming speech but also made references to the royalties who were present. My identity as the prince was revealed. Mister Roland cleared his throat. "And now, the moment we all have been waiting for. The winner of this year's competition is none other than….." he kept quiet as he let out a perfect smile. My heart raced heavily, everyone shivered in curiosity. Some had closed their eyes and were also curious. I had to place my hand on my chest so I could relax and by doing so I heard the sound of my heart beat. "Is… none other than… Everest Luthar!" He screamed o
Finn I heaved a sigh of relief. It was a good thing I was able to sum up confidence to tell Everest about my identity. Else, I can't imagine what would happen. She was absolutely right about my fears. There was no way results would be announced that my identity won't be revealed. Though, I saw this coming so I was fully prepared. But to my greatest surprise she laughed over the matter. Here I was thinking she would be really upset with me but little did I know that it would turn out this way. Just when I said it out, I felt a great relief. Now I bet she would be really confident and happy to have me beside her. Finally! This is the day we've all been waiting for. Deep within me, I was full of excitement. As a matter of fact, I couldn't get yesterday off my mind. The moments I spent with Everest made me happy and made me impatient to witness tomorrow's event. I must say that I was in a good mood. I ordered a limited collection. They were of the latest designers. I was certain tha
