My Rival My lover Chapter 56: congratulatory letter
Alex PovHis face was a storm of emotions, hurt, anger, and confusion. My stomach sank.“Peter?” I said cautiously.He crossed his arms, his eyes narrowing as he looked at me. “So it’s true, then?” he asked, his voice thick with disbelief.“What’s true?” I asked, already dreading the answer.“That you’re one of them,” he spat, the word dripping with contempt. “An elite. You’ve been one this whole time, haven’t you? And you didn’t say anything. Why? Were you using me this whole time? Was I just some… some project to you?”His words hit me like a slap, and for a moment, I was too stunned to respond. “Peter, no,” I said, shaking my head. “It’s not like that. I didn’t even know until recently…”“Oh, so now you’re the victim?” he interrupted, his voice rising. “Do you know how stupid I feel? Defending you, standing by you, only to find out you’ve been hiding this the whole time?”People were starting to gather, their curiosity palpable. Phones were out, cameras flashing as they captured th

Alex pov As I walked into the hallway the next day, my eyes scanned the crowd, hoping to find a particular face. I noticed that the students were now minding their business, only hidden glances and hushed whispers,it was a far cry from what happened yesterday. The V.C, as promised, has taken care of it. I was thankful for that, I didn't know what she said or did, but it worked perfectly. I wear my normal hoodie and dark glasses to cover my sunken and swollen eyes. I did not sleep well last night. Constantly thinking about Luke and how he didn't call me throughout yesterday. Then I saw Luke standing by the lockers with his usual nonchalant posture, talking to a few guys from his basketball team. I breathe an air of relief. At least he is okay. I have been worried as to what his actions will be, finding out that I am not the poor boy I was. A nervous smile broke across my face, a flicker of hope rising in me. I pushed my way through the crowd, weaving between clusters of students u

Alex povThe thoughts of the badge was on my head throughout the whole day. followed by what it actually meant. I couldn’t concentrate the whole day, even in sports. The coach had to call me back several times, as I kept on spacing out. According to Andrian, it's a secret party for a select few. I slung my backpack well, crossing the gate of my college.“Alex!”I stopped in my tracks and turned. It was Luke jogging toward me, his expression earnest. His hair glinted in the sunlight, and there was something softer in his eyes now. Was he feeling sorry?“What do you want, Luke?” I asked, crossing my arms.He stopped a few feet away, catching his breath. “I need to talk to you. Pleassse, hear me out.”I raised an eyebrow but said nothing.“I’m sorry,” he began, his voice quieter than usual. “For everything, I know that you are hurt for how I’ve acted, the things I’ve said. I was a complete jerk, and I don’t blame you for being mad at me. I am sorry.”I blinked, taken aback by the sinceri
Huling Na-update : 2025-01-20My Rival My lover Chapter 59: The ride
Alex povI stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the collar of the black button-down shirt Linda had insisted I wear. My palms were sweaty, and my heart thudded loudly in my chest. The thought of attending an Elites party, a world so far removed from my own, filled me with unease.“You’ll be fine,” Linda said from her spot on my bed. “Just don’t let them see you sweat and tremble all around. It will spell doom on your face day. Confidence is key.”“You don't understand, Linda, this party is absurd. Firstly I don't know if it's some kind of a cult gathering and two of all people , Andrian, had to deliver the letter.”“Calm down, Alex, it's just a party” Linda tries to smoothen my Ties, but it is always shifting.“It's not just a party, a freaking induction, what if we kill someone, or drink blood, that's what happens in induction, right?”I was already going out of my mind. And to top it off, I don't even know where to begin. Or where to go to the induction. I only know that it will

Alex pov“Hey baby” I am sorry for not coming to carry you…” Luke began immediately when we met, but he had to stop halfway, as andrian came out of the car, with an evil smirk.I facepalmed myself, caught in between the two boys' beef. Luke's expression kept on changing from surprise to anger and back to anger. Guilt gnawing at me became words seeing his hurt face and then Andrian that had a look of triumph.“I am Alex Ride,” he said, staring at Luke.“And why you of all people, when did you start volunteering to be a ride” Luke asked, his muscles already stretched in a fighting stance. I figured that he would jump on Andrian anytime soon.“Incase you don't remember, dummy, the giver of the letter is mandated to be the ride of the new Elites. And don't worry, I am not stealing Alex from your little jealous self.”“Hey, hey” I stepped in immediately before things got out of hand. “am okay Luke he didn’t do anything other than to bring me here”“Yeah, nothing absolutely happened,” he
Huling Na-update : 2025-01-22My Rival My lover Chapter 61: the task
Alex pov We came out of a clearing. The walk was a long and excruciating experience, but we scales through. I was holding Luke's hands throughout. But I was not prepared for what was waiting for me as the clearing became visible to me. Gathered around the clearing where all the elites were in my school. Josh and his friend, plus other students. I spotted andrian also who gave me a wink. “He followed an easier track, cutting the whole journey short” Luke explained, as if aware that the question was burning through my head. That made a lot of sense. I thought. “But why didn't we follow the same shortcut?” “Because it's a must that you will follow the long road. It's a part of the formality.” I scanned my surroundings, as Luke was still talking, but something didn't look right. everybody was not sitting on the level of platforms. Some were higher than the others. And there were even the highest raised seats, but no one was sitting on it. “About the seats, that's a long cultur

Alex pov I stumbled back, my mind scrambling for an explanation. The man's eyes flicked from the graffiti-covered walls to the fuel-streaked ground and then to the lighter still clutched in my hand. His face twisted into a mix of anger and disbelief. “I…I am so sorry” I tried to apologize while making sure my mask was still intact. but his next words made me realize there was no need to. “Get the criminal,” the man said to the two security personnel. Without looking back, I turned and fled into the bush. I could hear the sound of their footsteps. They were right behind me. My heart was burning from the adrenaline that was pumping inside me. What have I gotten myself into? I heard a rustle. Before I could react, a shadow appeared beside me. “Run,” the masked figure said to me, their voice low and urgent. I hesitated, torn between staying to explain myself or escaping the chaos I had unwittingly caused. But the masked figure didn’t give me a choice. They grabbed my arm

Alex pov I’ve always known the Elites have their separate world, but being thrust into it felt surreal. They had their separate classes. The classrooms were decorated beautifully, rivaling most of the students' parlours at their various homes. The air condition, that's seen in only the staff offices where mounted all round the Elites quarters, plus everybody have their own personal system and seats that are permanently for you. My registration took almost three hours, and that's with first-class treatment and the V.C. personal overseeing the registration. From today, hence Fort, I will be attending my lectures in the Elites quarters. Linda and i wouldn't have much time anymore, unless only at the eatery. Or when we have a combined class, in that case, it was just two or three classes. The new teacher, Mrs Hopkins, was in class, but the other students were busy, occupied with whatever they saw fit. Somewhere scrolling through the device while others were chatting in small groups.

My Rival My lover Chapter 124: the end
Alex’s POV The morning light streamed through the curtains, casting a golden glow across the room. The soft sound of the distant waters gives the scene a peaceful and otherworldly atmosphere. I stirred from my sleep. My muscles screamed as I stretched myself. my body was aching in places I never knew could ache. My whole body was sore, and my back felt like it had been through a battle. but the warmth pressed against me made it all worth it. Andrian’s strong arms were wrapped around my waist possessively, as if he couldn’t bear to let me go at all. his chest continued to rise and fall gently, behind me. I turned slightly, careful not to wake him, and watched his peaceful face. He looked so different like this, no arrogance, no fierce possessiveness, no weight pulling him down, just a man completely at ease. A lazy smile spread across my lips. Last night had been…well it was a rough night. The way he touched me, the way he held me, as if I was the only thing that mattered in th
My Rival My lover Chapter 123: I love you
sexual content ahead ‼️‼️Alex pov “You are mine” andrian growled like an animal. I couldn’t help the ecstacy that ran through my body from his deep, possessive words. I have never thought of someone owing me before. Hell no, I don't even have such fetish, but hearing andrian say it. It brought out a lot of things in me. My heart shook, almost answering to his statement. “Yes, I am yours” I said back, matching his tempo. One time, I was standing on the beach, and the next andrian lifted me up like I weighed nothing. His hands rested on my bottom as he painfully squeezed. I gasp, the pleasure running inside me was too much to comprehend. I clung to him for dear life, as I let andrian abuse my mouth. I was completely at his mercy. A whimper escaped my lips as he trailed traces of kiss from my jaw down to my neck. My toes tingle, and everything suddenly becomes blurry to me. The stars, the genlt waves lapping against the shore, the breeze, everything stilled. As I stared at
My Rival My lover Chapter 122: He is alive
Andrian pov “Alex!” He was whole. Alive. I wasn’t dreaming. His blue eyes met mine, and for the first time in over a year, I felt the ground would open and swallow me. His face held no atome of expression. I wanted to gauge from that, but I found nothing. only his blue eyes was fixated on me, staring at mèso intensely. It suddenly felt like the world, my surroundings, everything had disappeared, only Alex was in my world. For the past twenty minutes, neither of us had moved, neither of us had spoken. We just stood there, staring at each other like if we so much as blinked, the other would disappear. “Alex…” I repeated. Unable to form concurrent thoughts. His name was a whisper in my mind, a ghost I had never truly let go of. All this time, I had tried to delude myself, and I had moved on. But seeing him standing in front of me. All those feelings I had desperately locked off came rushing out like a dam. He was, real, standing right in front of me, looking both f
My Rival My lover Chapter 121: life on the island
Andrian pov Today was another bright day. The sun was already getting ready to shower the island with its blissful light. It was a day of work. Another day of burying myself in work. The world had long since moved on. And so had I. Or at least, that’s what I kept trying to let myself believe. It had been over a year since I left the hospital, since I turned my back on everything, the empire, the fortune, the past. My father’s reign had crumbled into dust, his empire swallowed by scavengers. It should have mattered to me. It should have made me feel something. But it didn’t. The one thing that mattered to me most has been taken away from me by the same man who calls himself my father. Without hesitation, I came and testified in the court. That was all it took to send him to life imprisonment , for attempted murder, and involvement in drug dealing and human trafficking. Well, I was also surprised when all the evidence was dug up. I know that my father was a fraudster and a w
My Rival My lover chapter 120: Waking up
ALEX’S POVSix Months LaterDarkness.That was all I had known. I have lost even a sense of time. I didn’t know how long I had been here ,but I only knew that it's been a long time.Time didn’t move here. There was no past, no present, no future. Just an endless abyss where memories flickered like broken film reels, playing over and over again.I was awake, and at the same time, I was not awake. I could hear voices that sounded like the voices of the nurses and doctors coming in every day. They would whisper in hushed tones before leaving immediately.And every time, I would scream and shout at them. I tried to ask them what was wrong, but each time, I was met with nothing.At times, my mother would stay with me for days. Talking about sweet things when our family was whole again. I was playing in the snow, or my father took the little me to the children's park. I could feel her sadness coming out in waves, but I can't do anything about it. I could only.lie down, to listen to her sto
My Rival My lover Chapter 119: moving on
Andrian POV Six Months LaterThe world had moved on.People carried on with their lives, the city bustled like it always did, and Rufus' empire together with all the assets had long since been divided among greedy hands, swallowed by vultures disguised as loyal friends and business partners.Well, ever since the arrest.I sighed for what felt like a hundred times this morning. I looked through the window, envious of the way people went about their normal daily lives. Moving on with their lives.Unaware of the lonely and broken heart, that was still stuck in the past.For me, time had stopped six months ago, on that blood-stained floor, with Alex's limp body in my arms, his breath shallow , as his life continued to seep out. That was the day my own world shattered into nothingness.I stood by the large window of my penthouse, staring blankly at the city below. The skyline of Manchester stretched endlessly, lights flickering like stars against the night, but it all felt so... empty, so
My Rival My lover Chapter 118: The gunshot
Alex pov It was as if everything had stopped, even time itself, had freezed. But it was more of the calm, before the storm. I mentaĺly counted down from 3,2,1… Before all hell was let loose. But the thing was that I was not there when it did. I was still in a trance, from watching andrian throw the key to the hungry monsters before I felt myself being dragged out of the room in a hurry. The sound of gunshots firing behind our back, echoed throughout the building. “Common keep up, if you want to live” andrian words reached me, but I was not making sense of it all. Nothing that has happened in the past 20 hours made sense. But one thing that made sense is that I have failed as the heir to my fathers legacy. No matter how it turned out, the truth still remained that the key is now with one of the evil monsters, and the secret wealth of my father would be plunged all because I was stupid enough to fall for a boy. “Leave me alone” I suddenly said, stopping myself from being dragge
My Rival My lover Chapter 117: Rufus
Alex pov The world was closing in on me. I felt like I would vomit, but every time I wanted to do so, nothing came out.I was devastated as an understatement. I was crushed both mentally and otherwise. i couldn't believe that Andrian was demanding a share in whatever wealth that was hidden in the Davidson save.Was this his way of doing back? After I abandoned him again on the island. But I had no choice.They had made sure I didn't involve anybody, even andrian.But seeing andrian standing there negotiating with the evil people, I could not help but ask what I had done wrong.“Why?”It was not too loud or directly directed to a specific person in particular, but andrian finally looked my way. My heart shook as he looked at me with no emotion in his eyes.“I am sorry, Alex, but I can't stop myself from doing this.” I shook my head, and I was not satisfied with his answer. “We promised each other. I thought we did…” My voice trailed off, cracking at the end.This was my father's mi
My Rival My lover Chapter 116: Betrayal cutting deep
Alex povLuke turned dramatically, motioning to the guards near the door.The door swung open again, and two large men dragged someone inside.My heart stopped.Viper.His face was bruised, blood dripping from his forehead, from all the places they had injured him. His hands were bound behind him, his head hung loose at the side, but he raised it up when he heard my voice."No."Panic crashed into me like a tidal wave."Viper!"I called for the second time. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Viper, someone I had known to be all mighty and mysterious, was reduced to this state, barely hanging on for his dear life. his dark eyes flickering to mine before he gave a weak, bloody smirk."Hey, kid." His voice was low and filled with pain.I could barely hear him, but I could still see the unwavering light in his eyes. It has not yet gone off.Luke chuckled."You have a strong and loyal lackey, I must commend. Let’s see how long he lasts, shall we?"The guards threw Viper to the ground
