Chapter 3

"What did he mean?" I asked as soon as the teacher got out.

"You have the same surname as Chloe" she said and my eyes rolled immediately.

Smith is the most common surname, silly.

"And I think you guys look alike a bit" she added and I scoffed.

"Silly" I mumbled bringing out my sketchpad.

What? She gasped immediately snatching the sketchpad.

"You draw too?" she asked flipping through the pages, her mouth wide open in awe.

"Who else draws?" I asked.

"Chloe, she has been winning the award for a while" she cleared my doubt.

"Ohh" I mouthed nodding.

"But I think you draw better" she smiled dropping the sketchpad before another teacher walked in.

So Chloe draws, but she thinks I draw better. And there's a drawing contest? That definitely means I can contest. Wow, maybe schooling wouldn't be bad here.

HENRY

"Don't you ever dare meddle in my business" Chloe yelled as soon as she entered my room.

I paused gazing at her.

"Who gave you the permission to enter my room?" I asked irritated.

"I do what I want" she yelled and I stood up immediately.

"This is my house not yours" I gritted.

"And the last time I checked, you aren't the Governor's child" I added glaring at her.

"I am his favorite" she smiled sitting on the sofa in my room.

"And I'm sure he prefers me to you" she said proudly.

"No Chloe" I chuckled sauntering towards her.

"He only feels love towards you because he misses his daughter" I reminded her and her face went pale.

"You couldn't take that position" she smiled standing up.

"I came to warn you not to meddle in my business" she said firmly.

"You're so proud huh?" I laughed gripping her arm.

"I do what I want" I breathe out on her face and I saw her shudder.

Why won't she? I'm pretty sure she feels something for me.

"Let go Henry" she mumbled and I let go of her arm.

"And remember there are a lot of secrets I can use against you Chloe" I smirked reminding her and she looked up instantly.

"You wouldn't want the Governor to know you bully students right? And you wouldn't want him to know you're an addict to smoking"I smirked as I saw her mouth wide open.

"How...? You know?" She asked and I smiled patting her cheeks.

"A lot more about your mischievous acts" I said.

"Now you should leave my room" I ordered.

She swallowed hard turning slowly walking to the door. Guess she's speechless, well of course I know how to put her in her place when I want to. And I'm sure she likes me, the only thing stopping her is our relationship. My phone rang and I scoffed seeing the caller. Amelia.

I picked the phone blocking her immediately.

CHLOE

How did he know? I thought walking out of his room. He knows a lot of things about me then but he never attends school, how did he know I bully students? Well, I shouldn't be bothered about that, I'm pretty sure he has no evidence. I make sure to destroy every evidence, I'm Chloe after all. Yes Chloe, the Governor's niece. The most superior young adult. Age? 17 , I'll be 18 soon and I bet it'd be the most celebrated birthday of my life. I'm pretty sure of that. I have a talent of drawing, I draw the best art no one can ever make, I've drawn a lot of arts for the Governor and he never fails to reward me. Well, why wouldn't he? I'm his favorite after all. I know he has a soft spot for me because I am the same age as his late daughter, she was kidnapped I guess, I really can't remember because I was still a kid. We were literally nothing back then. I chuckled remembering some pictures I saw of our childhood , we used to play the weirdest game. Well, I'm kinda happy his daughter isn't alive else she would be having the most affection and attention from him. But now? Everything is directed to me.

"Ma'am?" a guard called tapping on my shoulders and I scoffed shrugging his hands off.

"Don't you dare touch me!" I gritted in annoyance and he bowed immediately.

Well, he knows better than not to, I can make sure he lose everything he has.

"I'm sorry, you zoned out for a while" he said bowing.

"What do we have?" I asked angrily.

"A phone call" he stretched the phone to me and I scoffed seeing the caller.

Brian? What does he wants? He's my ex boyfriend already. I snatched the phone from him before throwing it against the wall.

"Next time you bring important things to me" I said before walking away.

How dare he even bring that call to me? I scoffed as I entered the car and the driver zoomed off while the guards drove behind us. I hate having them in the same car but trust me, I made sure to get a guard as the driver. At least I'm sure he'd protect if anything happens to others.

Walking into the room, I scoffed seeing Samantha doing her usual thing.

"You never get tired right?" I asked and she smiled sweetly.

"I love it this way Chloe, I can do any style I want " she said and I scoffed.

"You should try it too Chloe, they're better than humans" she said.

I chuckled shaking my head.

"I'll never use dildos" I declared firmly.

"And you better get out of my room" I added falling to the bed.

"Really?" She smirked and I scoffed remembering my monophobia

I hate being alone, main reason I allow her in my room.

"Where's Cassy?" I asked with an eye roll.

"Out as usual" she said and I nodded remembering her usual routine.

Her practice, she wants to sing. Well Cassy is the third person and she's a gentle girl, always at loggerheads with Samantha.

"But.." Samantha stood up taking her towel.

"Did you see Henry? He's so cute" she gushed happily.

I rolled my eyes picking the phone scrolling to Henry's and I picture, he's very cute.

"Did you just notice?" I asked and she smiled snatching my phone.

"Have you done anything with him?" She asked and I exhaled turning to her.

"He's my cousin remember" I reminded her.

Well, I'm only trying to have a little self respect if not, I'd have tried things out with him but I'm pretty sure Henry wouldn't agree because he's my cousin.

Yes, my cousin... tch, how silly that sounds.

"Maybe I should try my luck then" Samantha squealed and I scoffed.

"Thought you don't like humans" I reminded her.

"Well, not for a beautiful soul like Henry."

"Can you just keep quiet?" I asked shutting my eyes.

"Fine" she stood up and I heard the bathroom door open.
