1st Day of College (1)

2024-07-01 12:19:37The Next Day at Princeton University....
The campus was bustling with energy. It was the start of a new year, and many new faces, filled with enthusiasm or nervousness, were entering the college gates. Colorful decorations adorned the grounds to welcome the newcomers.
Vickey, Jude, Lily, Alex, and Jenny sat on the lawn near the parking lot, where they had a clear view of everyone arriving. Jenny and Jude were having fun teasing some freshers, while Vickey was busy checking out the new girls.
"Dude, I am so disappointed. I can't find a single good-looking face this year. All the pretty and sexy girls are taken even before coming to college. This is the worst thing ever. Why does this happen to me? Do you think I might be cursed or something?" Vickey complained.
Smack!
"Will you stop doing that every time? That really hurts," Vickey said, rubbing his arm.
"I can't help it. It's the only way to discipline you. Stop your nonsense about girls and do something useful," Lily retorted.
"That's right, listen to her," Ria said as she and Rayan joined the group. "You guys can go," Rayan told the freshers being bullied by Jenny and Jude.
"Hey, what is this, Rayan? You always do this. We were just starting to have some fun," Jenny and Jude protested.
Rayan ignored their complaints and asked Alex, "Where's Liam?"
Just then, a new sports bike roared into view, entering the college gate. The rider parked in the parking space and removed his helmet. As he ran his hands through his silky black hair, his violet eyes sparkled in the sunlight. As he walked towards his friends, someone called out to him from behind—it was Tressa, the college queen.
She was a beautiful young woman with a supermodel figure, standing at 5'8" with golden curly hair and a fair complexion. She always looked perfect, as if she had just stepped out of a spa. All the guys in college were desperate for her attention, but she was crazy about Liam.
"Hey, Liam, how have you been? It was a long summer break this time," Tressa said.
"It surely was, but I enjoyed it a lot. Did you need something?" Liam asked.
"Ha... nothing, just wanted to say 'Hi' since we all just got back from our holidays," Tressa said.
"Okay, then, I'll take my leave. I'm late for class, and my friends are waiting," Liam replied, walking away.
"Yeah, sure, bye. I need to get to class too," Tressa said awkwardly, waving as Liam left.
"You know, right? He just ran away from you, making an excuse," Kira, Tressa's best friend, commented as she approached.
Tressa turned to Kira with an evil smile. "I know, but how long can he keep running? During the holidays, I heard our mothers talking about how we're a good match and that they should try to speak to us about getting engaged."
"It's just a matter of time, and I'm going to make sure I'm his only option," Tressa said with a wicked grin.
"Wow, girl, that's great. I'm happy for you," Kira said as they walked away, both smiling.

On the Other Side...As Liam took his seat in class, Rayan leaned over and asked, "She still hasn't stopped bothering you?""No, man, it's such a pain in the ass. I can't even do anything about it without hurting Aunt Elizabeth. I've lost count of the number of times I've rejected her advances. I can't even have a few peaceful days at home," Liam said, massaging his forehead to relieve the tension.Rayan patted his friend's shoulder, trying to ease his irritation.Their conversation was cut short as the professor entered the classroom.Meanwhile, outside, a Lamborghini Veneno sped through the university gates at lightning speed, captivating everyone with the driver's skillful handling. When the car came to a stop in the parking lot, a stunning girl with deep blue eyes and straight chocolate brown hair emerged.She stood at 5'8" and wore a white knee-length one-piece dress paired with simple stilettos and a brown leather bag from Guess. Her outfit perfectly complemented her fair skin,

"NO!" "FU*K!" they exclaimed simultaneously, glaring at each other in frustration.The girl who bumped into Liam picked up her phone, frantically trying to restart it. "God, no, no, no... Please start..." she muttered. She then turned to Liam, scolding him for the mess. Liam, however, just stared at her, dazed.He was lost, drowning in her deep blue eyes, which reminded him of someone he had lost a long time ago. Her eyes were mysterious and captivating, bringing back memories he had buried deep in his mind and heart.Seeing Liam's vacant expression, the girl waved her hand in front of his face, calling, "Hello, mister!" But he didn't respond. Frustrated, she stomped her foot and walked away.Rayan came over and looked at the fallen water bottle and the dazed Liam standing there. He shook Liam by the shoulder, finally bringing him back to reality."What happened to you, man? Why are you standing here like that?" Rayan asked.Instead of answering, Liam kept looking around as if searchi

The next day at Princeton University..."God, my head hurts so much it feels like it's going to bust open any moment," Jenny groaned."It's not just you. We're all in the same position," Jude said, resting his head on the desk."We shouldn't have drunk so much," Ria said, massaging her forehead.As everyone kept complaining about their hangovers, the professor walked in and started taking attendance.Just as the professor finished and was about to start the lecture, there was a knock on the door."You're late," the professor said."Sorry, sir, I just joined and lost my way trying to find the class," a melodious voice reached everyone's ears as a girl apologized."A new joiner in the final term? Come in. What's your name?" the professor asked, taking the admission slip from her to confirm her claim."It's Leona Andreese, sir," she said. "We just moved back to the country due to my brother's work, hence the change in university.""Okay, take a seat next to Rhianna there," the professor

"Who is this woman, and why is Liam staring at her like that?" Tressa exclaimed in anger."He even invited her to eat with them without hesitation?" Kira added.Tressa's expression grew darker by the second. She took out her phone and dialed an unregistered number, which was answered within three rings.Even before the person on the other end could speak, Tressa ordered, "I'm sending you a photo. I need complete information about her by tonight.""Okay, let me see what I can do," the person replied before the call ended."Don't worry, everything will be fine," Kira reassured Tressa."Even if something were to develop, Liam's parents wouldn't agree to their union. She's just a normal human. How could she compare to you?""And you said it yourself that your mothers were discussing your union. What's there to worry about?" Kira added."Hmmm," Tressa hummed, her gaze fixed on the direction the group had gone.Meanwhile, in the canteen, everyone placed their orders and settled down at a ta

"Good morning, my dear queen," Allen greeted as he stepped into the office, closing the doors behind him."Speak," she said, lifting her head to address Allen."Queen Mother's assistant called this morning to inform us that the queen mother has appointed the great sword master, Tang, as a personal trainer for Princess Alina, as she has shown a keen interest in sword fighting," Allen reported.Queen Elizabeth responded with a smile. "Mother dotes on her far too much. It's good to hear that she's taking an interest in something useful."Allen smiled, thinking of the spirited princess.“Continue,” the queen said after that.Taking a deep breath, Allen continued in a serious tone, "The expert we invited to treat King Edward has says that there is nothing more he can do. We can only pray to the gods for his recovery."Elizabeth let out a sigh, rising from her seat and approaching the window for some fresh air. "This is the third person this year stating the same words," she noted wearily.A

"Are you done with yours? If not, I pity you. The line's moving at a snail's pace," Will added."There is no need for you to worry about that" Liam, who had been overlooked until then, spoke up.Startled, Will turned towards him. Feeling a twinge of guilt for neglecting Liam, Lea shot him an apologetic glance, which he acknowledged with a smile and a blink.Without delay, she introduced them. "Will, meet Liam, my classmate. Liam, this is William, my brother's best friend's younger brother."After a brief exchange, both men nodded and exchanged handshakes.Suddenly, Will checked his watch, speaking hurriedly. "Look at the time! I'm late for class again. Can't afford to miss another one," he exclaimed, giving Lea a quick hug and bidding Liam farewell before dashing off to complete his task.For some reason, Liam felt a pang of discomfort seeing Will hug Lea. He couldn't quite explain the surge of irritation towards Will or the feeling of being overlooked. It puzzled him. His reverie was

"Why? You don't like it?" Liam asked with a frown on his face. "Have you looked around you? For the past some time when we were standing near the admin block all the girls around have been throwing daggers at me. It's like they want to strangle me to death given the chance," Lea said with a small smile on her face. Hearing her words Liam just started laughing as they walked toward the class. The corridor was empty as it was near the library and it was almost time for class. "Hearing him laugh Lea stopped walking and said, what are you laughing at ha? I am just stating the truth here. Do you know how difficult it was for me to keep myself composed till now?" Lea added. Liam stopped laughing moved closer to her and looked directly into her blue eyes which were as deep as the ocean for a few seconds and asked her "So you think I am attractive?" with a smile on his face. Lea gulped in some saliva at the proximity at which they were standing. His masculine scent mixed with a flavor o

"Yeah," Liam chuckled. "I know it sounds silly. I was five years old, when I came here for the first time with my father and uncle. I was so fascinated by the cars that I wanted to drive like the others on the track. When I asked my father if I could, he obviously said no...""I started throwing a tantrum, and despite my uncle and father tried to consoling me but after some time my father got irritated and scolded me. It was the first time he'd ever scolded me, and I was overwhelmed with sadness and anger, so I just dashed into the woods.""I don't know for how long I was in there, I just ran and ran, and then when I finally got tired, I stopped and sat on a rock. I realized that I was lost. I did not know what to do or where to go, so I just started roaming around the woods to find my way out.""Wow... you were really brave for a five-year-old, not sitting in the corner and crying when you got lost in the woods," Lea commented."If you say so," Liam replied with a small laugh."So the

Alisha processed the information quickly “Then we should regroup with them before we make any further plans. If they succeed in making an antidote, we’ll need it.”Theo, still trying to avoid Daniel’s wrath, clapped his hands together “Great! A rescue mission, sounds fun.”Daniel shot him a look, making Theo shrink back slightly.Elena ignored the tension for the time being “That’s a good idea but before deciding on that, did you guys find anything in the place Theo mentioned about earlier?”Liam turned to her as he calmly explained “We went to the place Theo mentioned and indeed found a hidden chamber there but it was empty.But based on the dusty footsteps on the floor and the space in the chamber its clear that at least a hundred plus people were staying there.Probably that is where Tressa was hiding her people before the attack.”“So it’s of no use?&rdq

As soon as Liam stepped inside the hidden chamber without thinking much Elena rushed forward throwing herself into Liam’s arms. Her fingers clutched the back of his purple cloak as she felt his heartbeat against hers. Relief crashed over her like a tidal wave, and for a brief moment, nothing else mattered.Liam hesitated for only a second before wrapping his arms around her, holding her tightly. His body was tense, but she could feel his heartbeat settle as he exhaled, resting his chin briefly atop her head."You’re okay," she whispered, as if saying it would make it more real."I'm okay," he murmured back, voice low "You're safe, too."Once she relaxed into his arms, she felt a heavy gaze on herself. Something cold coiled in her stomach, a deep-rooted fear that had nothing to do with the enemies outside.She slowly lifted her head to look over Liam’s shoulders— and her blood ran cold as she locked eyes w

On Daniel’s side…He moved swiftly through the corridors, his steps precise as he led the guards away. He could hear the clanking of armour behind him, their pace quickening as they followed the sound of his retreat.“Good. Keep following me” He thought to himself with a victory smile on his face.As he turned another sharp corner he came face to face with another pair of Gantric Knights. The two guards barely had time to react before Daniel struck.His sword slashed through the air, knocking the weapon from the first guard’s hand before driving the hilt into the man’s stomach. The soldier gasped, doubling over.The second guard lunged with a spear.Daniel twisted out of the way, his footwork smooth as he sidestepped the attack. In one swift motion, he caught the shaft of the spear, yanked the guard forward, and elbowed him in the face. The man stumbled, blood dripping from his nose.Then he gather

As they moved through the corridors Master Yi started coughing hardly and as he removed his hand covering his mouth, it was covered in blood.“Am I poisoned as well?” Master Yi muttered to himself.“Did you have dinner at the palace last night?” Daniel asked to which Master Yi nodded “Then you are poisoned as I over heard downstairs that person poisoned the food that was to be served for dinner.”“If that’s true how am I still fine?” Lily asked.“How would I know probably you did not eat the poisoned food” Daniel said.Ignoring the two of them Master Yi spoke “If I am really poisoned, I need to get to my lab as soon as possible before the poison in my body acts up more.”Lily glanced at Master Yi, concern flickering in her gaze, Master Yi was right—if the poison spread further, he might not last long enough to create the antidote. Then she turned to Alina who

Elena leaned her head on the wall behind her as she closed her eyes to calm her mind “I have decided to tell him my truth after this situation is sorted out.”Theo’s eyes went wide in surprise as he looked at his stubborn friend “What did you just say?”Elena opened her eyes and turned to look Theo directly in the eye “You heard me right, I will let him know about my true identity and let him decide how we handle this” Elena leaned her head back again on the wall “Especially after what happened yesterday I don’t think I can forget this relationship and move on or see him with someone else.”Theodore was silent for a moment, watching her closely as if trying to gauge whether she was serious or not. Then, he let out a low chuckle, shaking his head.“Well, well,” he mused, “I never thought I’d hear you say that.”Elena exhaled sharply her gaze still fixed on the

Elena narrowed her eyes “You’re not going alone.”“I’ll be fine.”“No, you won’t,” she snapped.“Lea, please try to understand—” Liam started, his voice firm but edged with frustration.Elena didn’t let him finish “If you’re so insistent, then I’m coming with you.Liam turned to her, his expression hardening “Elena, no… it’s not up for discussion. Taking Kira or Alisha with me was one thing but taking you… NO… I can’t put your life in any kind of risk, please understand.”She lifted her chin defiantly “If you don’t take me with you, I’ll wait until you leave and follow you anyway.”Liam let out an exasperated breath. “You wouldn’t—”Elena’s glare was unwavering. “Try me.”Liam clenched his jaw. He knew her too well, if he left her behind now, she would absolutely sneak out after him and then he’d have to worry about her safety on top of everything else.Muttering a curse under his breath, he made one last attempt

Before he could completely finish his sentence Elena spoke up “We know, what I want to know is how did you get here in this condition.”“Yes” Liam added.But before Theo could answer Alisha spoke up “Guys let’s get to safety first, we can have these discussions there…. Those people from Gantric Knights can come here at any moment.”“Gantric Knights?” Theo asked confused.“It’s a long story, let’s get out of here first” Alisha said as she signalled Liam to help Theodore up.Theodore nodded in understanding as Liam bent down, gripping Theodore’s arm firmly and pulling him up with ease. Theodore let out a grunt, his body still weak from the lingering effects of the poison, but he didn’t resist.“Let’s move,” Liam muttered, adjusting Theodore’s weight to support him better.They moved as swiftly as they could, keeping t

Meanwhile on the other side…The sound of heavy boots echoed through the grand hallways of the palace as the Gantric Knights moved in calculated formation. Clad in black cloaks with their weapons drawn, they systematically searched every room, their sharp eyes scanning for any sign of resistance.One knight pushed open a wooden door forcefully, revealing nothing but an empty guest chamber. He exchanged glances with another soldier before shaking his head “Nothing here.”Another group of knights stormed into a different room, only to find two trembling palace maids huddled in a corner. One of them let out a small gasp as a knight stepped toward them, his blade glinting under the dim torchlight.“You two,” he barked “Where is everyone?”The maids, their hands clutching their aprons shook their heads furiously “W…We don’t know! W…We were cleaning the lower halls when we saw you peopl

The secret passage door burst open, and Silva strode in, followed by the remaining hundred plus members of Gantric Knights, their weapons gleaming under the dim chandelier light.Looking at this all the remaining nobles became alert as there hold on their weapons become tight, ready to fight.Silva smirked, his gaze sweeping over the poisoned nobles and terrified guests. “Seems like we arrived right on time,” he drawled.Tressa turned toward him, satisfaction gleaming in her eyes “You sure did, my head was starting to ake, listening to this old lady’s ratting.”Then she turned towards the guests who were ready to fight, “This what ever is happening here has nothing to do with you all. If you cooperate with us I will le you go back to your kingdoms peacefully.But if you dare to resist and want to play hero then all of you will be responsible for the death of those people on the ground coughing blood as I am the o
