Kyle Ethan’s POV

Until now, I still can’t believe what I heard. I don’t even know if I should be happy or what.

Especially when I found out the reason behind the deaths of our parents and relatives.

It just doesn’t seem right. Because we were the ones who were taken away from this world first. But here we are now. Only Nicole and I are left in our family. Even though our present families have changed.

But the fact that I was still with Nicole right now somehow made me feel at ease. Being able to be with the only woman I have loved for a longer time is one of the reasons why I prefer to fight and live longer now.

I was in my deep thoughts when suddenly, I felt Nicole’s hand shaking. I looked up and saw her face that seemed so afraid.

I asked her if she’s okay and both her parents stood up, then went near her. But I didn’t expect the response I got when she let go of my hand and took a step back.

She turned her back to us and ran away. Reiri suddenly shouted, trying to stop her.

    Marcus’ POV“One of the messengers is on his way to deliver the letter to the prince,” said Raphael, my right-hand man.I nodded. “That’s good then. Just make sure that the letter reaches the prince and that only he will be able to read it. It should not be read by anyone else in the kingdom, especially his cunning father. Because I will also need his power for my child.”His power was not far behind the princess’, you see. So, it would be better if I could acquire it as well, so that he could serve a purpose before he dies again.“You can rely on them. They already know what they need to do,” he replied, about to leave when something suddenly occurred to me.“By the way, where is Dave? I haven’t seen him for a while now. He disappeared without even saying goodbye,” I asked, looking at him intently.He lowered his head again. “I apologize, but I haven’t seen him since we arrived here.”I sighed. That child was always a headache. Sometimes I couldn’t help but suspect his actions.I hav

You see her every day here.”“When will you two ever agree on something? You even argue about simple things.”My eyes were closed, but my mind was awake. I heard a few more arguments before the surroundings fell silent. Then I heard footsteps and the sound of a chair being pulled.“I told you to try kissing her. Who knows, she might wake up suddenly.”“Come on, Kira. Do you have any other suggestions besides that? You’ve been pushing that topic for a while now.”Once again, the air was filled with whispers and conversation. At first, I couldn’t understand what they were saying. But gradually, it became clear to my hearing. Their voices were all familiar. However, I just couldn’t put a name to them.I wanted to open my eyes and move. But it felt like there was something heavy inside of me that was stopping me from doing so.“Le

    Nicole Jane’s POV“How are you? It’s been over a week since I last saw you, huh!”I was taken aback when Mikan suddenly hugged me tightly, almost knocking me over in the grass.Today is Saturday. We’re here in the school field. Most of the students have left the academy to go for a stroll or go home for a while. So, there are only a few of us here. The others who didn’t leave are just in their respective rooms.“Let go of me! You’re so clingy all the time.”She chuckled and released her tight embrace on me. I just gave her a glare.“You can’t blame me. You were gone for over a week. But is your family problem okay now?” Her face suddenly became worried.I paused and looked at Kyle. He just nodded at me.Oh, right. I almost forgot that it was the reason they told our teachers and Mikan why I’ve been gone for so long.“It’s fine now,” I replied, trying to keep my answer brief to avoid expanding on the lie. It’s also weighing on my conscience because she genuinely seemed concerned. If I

    Nicole Jane’s POVI was jolted awake by consecutive knocks on my door.“Just a moment.” I groggily walked towards it and lazily opened it. “What—”“Good morning too, Nicole.” Kira’s smiling face greeted me as soon as I opened the door. But he paused as his gaze swept over me from head to toe.“Sorry for waking you up.” He scratched the back of his head.Uncomfortably, I stepped back and looked at myself in the large mirror. My eyes widened when I saw how messy my hair was right now. And to think I was even wearing my Hello Kitty pajamas!I glared at Kira, who suddenly burst into laughter.“Don’t worry, Nicole. You still look beautiful.”I scowled at him. “Whatever! What are you doing here anyway?” I crossed my arms as I approached.He turned around and seemed to call for someone. That’s when I noticed there was someone with him.“Well, I’m here to introduce your roommate, Miss Stephanie Miller.” He looked back at the girl beside him. “Steph, this is Nicole Jane Parker.

    Nicole Jane’s POV“Let’s eat now! Hurry up over there. I’m really hungry.”Mikan pouted while I was still fixing my things. We had just finished our fourth subject, and it was already break time.I just glared at her. “Wait a minute. You’re acting as if the dining room was going to get up and run away.” I stood up.She just flashed a peace sign at me.“Hey, let’s go.” Kyle approached me and took my bag.“How sweet.” Mikan poked my side a few times.“Cut it out! For all I know, you two are just as sweet,” I whispered with a grin, glancing at Kira.Her cheeks suddenly turned red. Finally, I got back at her. If she tries to tease me, I might just reveal her secret.We walked silently towards the dining hall. We were about to sit down when Miley suddenly arrived. The guys asked for permission to buy our food. I also told Kyle and Kira to include Steph and Mikan. Despite their strong objections.“So, the news is true. We’re glad that you’re already here, Steph!” Miley said, smiling from ea

    Vincent’s POVI didn’t mean to act that way, but I just can’t help myself from doing so. I know that it’s too risky, but I believe that Kyle can handle what happened back there, and he will understand.I thought it would be just another normal day for me. But the moment I saw her face again, I knew too well that starting this day everything would change, and I wouldn’t be able to have that normal day again. Kira didn’t even tell me that she was the new student.“Vincent.”I stopped walking when I heard her familiar voice. I was walking so fast that I didn’t realize I was already here in the woods.I closed my eyes, trying to calm my nerves. Because honestly, I didn’t know what I would do when I faced her now.“What are you doing here?”I’ve wanted to ask her that question for a while now. I knew it was possible for us to meet again, especially since we were living in the same world.But not this soon because I’m not ready yet.It has been years since we last saw each other. She has be

    Kira’s POVI lost my appetite to eat when Vince suddenly left. Adding to that is the unexplainable tension between each of us here that I can’t understand where it is coming from.That’s why I decided to leave as well. But it seems like I’m not the only one troubled here. Because I also noticed the concern of others.However, I didn’t expect Mikan to join me.Damn.I hesitated at first. But because I didn’t want others to notice my uneasiness towards her, I just nodded and let her be.“What is it this time?” I asked her the moment we got outside the dining hall. I kept my gaze straight ahead while walking quickly. I don’t want to be rude, but I just can’t help it right now. This isn’t like me.I felt her shrug, her arm still clinging to mine. It seems like she doesn’t mind that I’m practically dragging her along. I also noticed the hostile glares we received from everyone we passed by. While the others started whispering to each other.“You said you had something to do. I just want to

But I can’t do anything else but dream that she would be smiling at me, talking to me, accompanying me, and holding my arm instead.I clenched my fists. But before I was about to do something that I know I would regret later, I decided to just leave. I didn’t pay much attention to Nicole when she noticed me.She looked so frustrated. But I don’t have time to explain right now. All I want is to be alone and run away from all of them.So, I quickly ran away. I had no idea where I should go.I ran here and there. I walked here and there. I bumped into some people, but they were the ones apologizing to me even though I was the one at fault. Some even bowed down while asking for forgiveness.“Hi, Prince Hiro! Want to have some fun?”I stopped walking when a tall girl suddenly appeared beside me.I gave her a bored look. I didn’t pay much attention to her overall appearance. But she could have been beautiful if she hadn’t tur

I quickly ran out of the building and headed towards my parked car to go to my next destination.Today is the university’s graduation party, held at a nearby bar downtown. Kira and Mikan were already there. The truth is, I didn’t have any plans to go because I haven’t graduated yet, although I am allowed to attend.

It’s nice because all the royalties were present yesterday, including Kira’s parents. They left just this morning.I parked my car in an empty slot at the parking lot.

I opened my eyes only to close them again when sunlight came into view through the window. I turned around and opened them again.“Good morning, best!”The drowsiness I felt vanished immediately upon seeing her. I even rubbed my eyes to make sure I wasn’t just imagining things.But I’m not. She’s really here!“Mikan!”I got up from my bed and hugged her tightly. I didn’t care if I looked disheveled with strands of hair scattered across my face. I heard her chuckle.“What’s with the sudden visit? You were just here last week, right?”I didn’t really expect to see her right now. They just came last week along with Miley and Kira for our college graduation. But they left the next day, so I don’t know why she’s here again today.She smiled.

He carefully placed Nicole down from his back.“Just sit back and relax, babe. I can handle this.”Nicole wanted to protest, but she felt something different within herself, so she remained silent. It was a different feeling from earlier.She knew that within a few minutes, she would be able to assist Kyle as well. That thought made her smile.Kyle’s eyes turned blood-red. Veins started popping out as a surge of intense emotions coursed through him.“Let’s end this battle now, Hans.

He and Steph had matching guns specially made for the protectors.But they stopped in their tracks when they noticed that Althea seemed to be simply watching the ongoing battle. What puzzled them even more was that none of the enemies were attacking her.“Althea!” Athena called out to her sister as she approached. Althea slowly lifted her gaze in their direction.And they were not prepared for the sinister grin they saw on her lips.“Althea, what—” Athena couldn’t finish her sentence as in an instant, Althea was in front of her, choking her.Meanwhile, Gino, from a short distance, stopped and briefly looked in their direction.

There are too many of them.” His worried expression is evident on his face.The king simply nodded, clenching his fist. It seemed like their original plan didn’t work.

Are you afraid now, princess?” Hiro teased, and I simply rolled my eyes.“Whatever.”Steph laughed. “You two, I feel like even if you end up married, you’ll still bicker all the time.” She shook her head.“Well, that’s if they end up with each other.”I glanced at my brother and furrowed my brow. Why was he like that? Did he forget that he still owes me an apology?Hiro scratched his head. “You joke around too much, best friend. By the way, when we get back from here, you’re leaving already, right?” His words suddenly turned serious, and we all became solemn because of what Hiro said.I saw a sudden sadness in Steph’s eyes. Why did my brother have to leave? His drama of finding himself was just too much.“Yeah. Don’t worry. It won’t take long. I’ll also pay our parents a visit,” he said while looking at Steph.

Don’t even attempt to escape because if you do, I’ll be forced to kill you.” You could hear the threat in her voice.I bit my lower lip. That was not an option. If I were to die, I needed to tell them the truth first.I slowly turned away, avoiding her scrutinizing gaze.“Don’t worry. I have no intention of escaping. Besides, what chance do I have against you, right?” I needed to convince her that I was on her side. It was the only way to stay safe for now.“Indeed. Go back to your room now. You’re not allowed to leave until the fated battle tomorrow. You know what will happen to you if you disobey,” she warned.I was about to protest, but I had to prioritize my thoughts now.With that, I nodded and walked back to my room. I needed to figure ou
