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

Not having the heart to scold Elena Master Kai Von turned to Liam as he breathed him “You brat why did you not inform me as soon as my dear disciple woke up?” Liam blinked, caught off guard by the sudden shift in attention “She just woke up,” he defended, raising his hands slightly “I was going to tell you, but then… well, we were talking and—”“Talking?” Master Kai’s voice lifted incredulously as he stood and turned to fully face him, his eyes narrowing with something between suspicion and fatherly protectiveness “Talking about what, exactly?”Liam opened his mouth, then closed it, cheeks flushing a bit “Just… some important things.”Kai narrowed his eyes further, clearly not buying it “Did not you tell you had dossed of, that’s why it got so late for you to open the door just now?”Liam blinked wide eyed, caught up in his own lies not know

Her eyes shimmered as she looked up at him, one hand slowly lifting to rest over the one still cradling her cheek “You’re not angry?” she asked, her voice a fragile whisper.Liam shook his head slowly “No,” he said simply, his gaze steady “I was scared. Worried. But not angry” He hesitated, then added, “I don’t need to know everything right away, Elena. I just need to know you. And I do.”His words struck something deep inside her, a place that had always braced for rejection, for suspicion, for betrayal—never for acceptance. Never for this.Elena closed her eyes for a moment, breathing him in—the steadiness of him, the strength he gave her without asking anything in return. When she opened them again, her voice was steadier “I don’t deserve this,” she said quietly.Liam frowned, not harshly, but like he hated hearing her say it “Don’t do that,” he

Elena breathed, each shaky inhale slowly growing steadier as Liam held her. His hand moved gently up and down her back, slow and grounding, letting her feel the rhythm of life—the simple, steady beat of being here, being safe.When the worst of the tremors passed, Liam shifted slightly, glancing down at her “You should rest a little more," he said softly, brushing a few strands of hair from her damp forehead "I’ll call Master Kai Von, just to make sure you’re okay as you have been unconscious for three days now."But the moment he started to move, Elena's arms tightened around him in a panic, her fingers curling into the fabric of his shirt like a lifeline “No,” she whispered sharply, her voice trembling but sure “Don’t go. Please... stay.”Liam froze, feeling the raw desperation in her voice, in the way she clung to him like he was the only solid thing left in a crumbling world. His heart twisted painfully at the thought of leaving her, even for a second.He let out a quiet, resigned

"Over my dead body," Richard snarled.Ernest’s smile widened cruelly "That my plan exactly."At Ernest’s signal, the cloaked men surged forward like a black tide.Richard rose, one arm still around Zenobia, and drew his sword in one swift motion, the steel catching the faint light of the enchanted forest.They clashed with a deafening ring of steel.Richard fought like a man possessed, fuelled by love and rage, his blade a silver blur. He felled two of the men quickly, moving with deadly grace—but there were too many, and he was alone.A sword slashed across his side—he staggered but didn’t fall.Another cut along his arm—his grip tightened stubbornly around his sword. Blood darkened his tunic, dripping into the moss, but Richard fought on, each movement slower, heavier.He could feel his strength leaving him. Zenobia was still unconscious on the grass behind him, unaware of the battle raging
Return of the Dragon Queen Chapter 116
A soft golden mist swirled around Elena, wrapping her in warmth and a strange sense of peace. She wasn’t sure where she was—but everything around her felt too vivid, too alive to be anything but real.She stood at the edge of an enchanted forest, where the trees rose high into the sky, their branches weaved with sparkling silver vines and glowing flowers that pulsed gently like stars. The air shimmered with magic, and the ground beneath her bare feet was soft, like moss spun from dreams.Laughter echoed through the woods—bright, musical, carefree.Ahead, a girl darted between the trees, her hair cascading down her back like a waterfall of dark silk. She wore a flowing white dress that fluttered like butterfly wings as she ran.Elena blinked in shock.The girl... looked exactly like her, but not quite.There was something different. An old-world grace to her movements, a wild, ancient light in her eyes."Zenobia!" cam

"There is only one person who might hold the key to this tangled truth," he said. His gaze locked onto Alisha’s, unwavering one "Your father, Edward."Alisha stiffened, a sharp breath tearing from her lips "My father…" she whispered, her mind already spiralling "But... he's been in a coma ever since—since that day."Master Kai nodded solemnly "I know. Ever since the accident where you lost Aisha, Edward has been trapped between life and death. His mind remains sealed. Even I have tried everything know but nothing has been able to bring him back."Henry looked away, his face shadowed with guilt and sorrow. Alisha pressed a trembling hand to her mouth, her eyes shining with unshed tears."But if he were awake," Master Kai pressed on, "he could tell us what truly happened that day after they fell of the cliff, where did that bright light appeared from and why he did not use his power to fly back up. The only one who may have seen... what n

Elizabeth stared at him, disbelieving “What... did you just say?” she breathed, her voice dangerously low “You want to deny the evidence in front of you?”Henry didn’t flinch under her gaze. His face was grim, almost resigned “Yes its true Elena is my adopted daughter and I understand the DNA test results you brought here," he said slowly, "but it can’t be true because I found Elena a year before you lost Aisha…”Elizabeth felt the ground sway beneath her feet."No…" she said, her voice cracking, her hands trembling at her sides "No, that's not possible."Henry nodded grimly "I found Elena when I went to perform the last rights for Diana and dispose her ashes in the river — you know exactly when Diana died due to that accident during the childbirth.Elena was just three years old when I found her, she had no memories, no family... nothing, just lying unconscious on the banks of the

As Alisha stepped out of the portal Elizabeth stood there waiting for her.Elizabeth stepped forward and gave a small hug before pulling away “How are you doing?”Alisha just gave a small smile at this question as she said “I am doing okay mom…” and squeezed Elizabeth’s hands that she was holding “How is Elena doing?”Elizabeth’s face tightened slightly. She pressed her lips into a thin line before answering "Her condition is stable now... but she hasn't regained consciousness yet."Alisha nodded, worry flickering in her eyes. She hesitated a second before speaking again, her voice dropping a little."Anyway... I needed to speak with you. Can we go somewhere private?"Elizabeth’s gaze sharpened at that, sensing the weight behind Alisha’s request. Without asking further, she gave a small nod and gestured for Alisha to follow her down a quieter hallway, away from the open court
Return of the Dragon Queen Chapter 112
The next day morning…Alisha stood on the first floor, leaning casually against the cool stone railing, her arms crossed loosely over her chest as she gazed down into the Main Hall. Morning light streamed through the towering windows, casting golden patterns across the polished marble floor.The hall looked pristine — it was as if the horrors of the previous day had been nothing more than a bad dream.But Alisha knew better.The echoes of chaos still clung to the air, hidden beneath the gleaming surface, and no amount of magic or scrubbing could erase the memory of what had transpired.Her fingers tapped rhythmically against the stone as she watched the servants bustle about, polishing, arranging flowers, resetting furniture — each movement a desperate attempt to restore normalcy.A normalcy that had been shattered.She exhaled slowly, her mind heavy.Just then she felt a tap on her shoulder and when she looked
