Chapter 1
I tossed to the other side of the bed, unable to sleep, knowing that we were leaving their town to live in a secluded town called Frost town.
It all happened when I told my mom that I had a dream.
In the dream, there were people telling me to return to the rightful place I ought to be. I lost my father at a very young age and my mother Dorcas raised me all alone. I decided not to worry and went to have a bath.
I washed my long brunette hair and stared at the mirror at a while, my blue eyes grew tired.
I rummaged through my wardrobe for clothes to wear. I settled for white shirt, denim jeans, suede jacket and black boots, sastified I let out a sign of relief before running down the stairs for breakfast.
I greeted my mom who responded brightly.
After finishing breakfast, I immediately ran out to catch the bus for school.
Thirty minutes later, I reached school and went to class when someone greeted me.
I already knew it was my best friend Alicia.
"Good morning Ivory," Alicia greeted.
"Good morning," I responded to her.
"How's your night," Alicia asked.
"Great and you," I replied.
"Fine," she replied.
"We better start moving our asses before lectures start," I said and Alicia nodded we both went for our first class.
I always sat at the back of the class to avoid being noticed because I am always bullied. I walked to a seat and listened to the lectures.
In the middle of the class, a gorgeous boy with black hair and green eyes that shone like emerald was walking straight to me and he had caught the attention of the whole class. He sat at my back that I could not concentrate.
Unknown POV
I walked straight to my class and as usual always being the center of attention.I was looking for a seat, when a girl with straight brunette hair and sky blue eyes caught my attention and she sat at the back of the class, so I went to seat behind her.
After the class, I asked for her name and she ran off like she was not the one I was talking to,so I decided to run after her.
I didn't know this little one is a fast runner,by the time I caught up with her, I was already panting, "great, I have to go back to my early run every morning.
"What the hell was that," I enquired, she looked at me with those blue eyes which were beautiful, then I noticed they were engulfed with fear.
"Great," I thought to myself," she is a nerd, at least she knows I am a bully.
Then I Introduced myself, "Daniel Connor and you."
"Ivory Walter," she whispered softly.
Then I lifted her chin and said, "Next time, don't run out like a hog," and she nodded.
"See you soon kitten," I whispered in her ears.
Ivory POV. "Oh God, " he scared the hell out of me when he asked for my name. Never in my life did I want to get involved with that arrogant rich kid who was the most feared in college. My instincts told me to run out immediately, so I did. What I didn't expect was for him to chase me, I was afraid and by the time he caught up with me. His eyes pierced into mine for a while before saying, "Daniel Connor, and you." I was afraid that I could not find my voice quickly and when it came, it came in a whisper, "Ivory Walter, oh gosh, I was such a coward." He lifted my chin and said "see you soon kitten," never again did I want to see him, I must avoid him at all costs because he is the devil in disguise. After my conclusion, I glanced at my wristwatch, it was break time, thank goodness, I am starving. I went to grab my lunch at the cafeteria when I met him again, this time he was with his friends. Thank goodness, that will create a distraction from me. I quickly ran p
Chapter 3 IVORY POV He acts weird sometimes, why should he care about my wounds when they are clearly going to inflict more. "Perhaps I get the honor in checking it myself," he smirked, snapping me out of my thoughts. "N..No," I stammered, my cheeks were as red as beetroot. "I... I... can do it on my own," I stammered. I fiddled with the end of the gown for a while feeling reluctant to show him. Slowly as ever, I sliding it above my thighs as his curious green eyes grew darker as I did. He slowly traced the wounds with his fingers which almost made me purr, I gritted my teeth to hold it in. "Is that all?" He asked in a deep voice, raising those hypnotic green eyes and fluttering his long lashes and his pink lips, damn sexy, so sexy.. Without responding, I pulled the fabric down my shoulders to the scar on my left breast. "So they did this to you, he asked in a deep voice almost sounding like a growl, I only nodded my head afraid not to spill anything inappropriate. "They we
IVORY POV "I don't understand you and please stop pestering me, I have never wronged you," I told her before walking away. Just then, I felt someone pull my hair so harsh that it stung like hell. "I aren't done talking yet, how dare you walk out on me," she yelled, before giving a few hits across the face. "Hey girl, you will see how dare you walk out on me," she yelled, before giving a few hits across the face. Hey girl, you will see how Stella would rage once she finds out that you are seducing her man," she flipped her hair to the other side. "Let her find out, maybe her man should stay away from me and stop pestering my life!!! I didn't really mean to shout." "What did you just say idiot, " she yelled at me before slapping me across the face. "You really don't know your place do you?" she continued talking as she gave me more and more hits. She was about to hit me again when I lost it, I caught her hand and screamed. "STOP! What the hell are you doing miss Walter," I hea
IVORY POV Detention, hell no, I don't want anything to lower my grades, why don't they just leave me. I took a taxi home, my mom was home. "I'm back mom," I announced before rushing upstairs before she started asking me a million questions. Bringing out my clothes, I started to do laundry when I remembered the suits. "Oh nice, how could I forget those," I felt like punching myself. I grabbed my phone to call Alicia but she wasn't picking up. "Honey," I heard mom calling. "Yes mom," I replied hiding my panic. "I made dinner already, come downstairs for your dinner," she said before I heard her shoes slowly disappearing down the stairs. I heaved a sign of relief before calling Alicia's number again and it's not responding. I trudged downstairs for dinner thinking about different ways they are going to bully me tommorow. "Ivory, Ivory!!! mother was calling me the whole time. "What's bothering you?" she asked, I have been calling you the whole time," she added. "Ahhh, nothi
Damons POV Thirty minutes later, I reached home to meet dad smoking his pipe "Why did you come back home so late?" he asked, his back turned away staring at the space. "Like you care," I scoffed before going to my room. "Fool!" he muttered while I ignored him. IVORY POV Rays of sunlight flooded the room, lighting up the daffodils Mom bought in the room yesterday. I lazily opened my eyes while holding the pillow tightly to my chest and stretching myself. Then I remembered something. "Oh no, the suits," muttered before dashing into the bathroom to take a shower. Few minutes later, I slipped out of the shower before grabbing an ankle length gown. I comb my hair before grabbing a pair of ribbon before braiding it into pigtails. "Perfect," I hummed before grabbing my backpack and glasses, I dashed downstairs. Reaching there, I could hear her humming some music while preparing breakfast. "You are leaving already?" she asked with dismay. "Yeah, I have class," I l
I just wished they all let me be, I dusted myself before grabbing my stuff and left for the Infirmary. I met doctor Lana wearing a pair of glasses, her face buried in a book. She looked up and saw me, I expected her to scowl at me, but she looked at me as if she already know that I am coming. "Good afternoon, I came here because I forget something," I told her. "Are you looking for this?" she asked handing me a bag. I looked inside and nodded, but I was surprised, it was exactly what I was looking for. "Seems like we've got another hit," she said and I immediately knew she was talking about my cheeks, I felt embarrassed She handed me a balm before saying "Learn to defend yourself and never give up, you are destined for greater things," she said, patted my shoulders and left. I stood there shocked for a while, trying to understand what she was trying to say, why was she nice all of a sudden?"
IVORY POV I left the infirmary and went home straight. I don't have the strength to face those bullies. Mom wasn't home and I was happy about that because she would have asked me a million questions. I went to my room, and dropped my backpack before running to the laundry to wash the suits and iron them. I carefully folded the last suit in the bag. For some strange reason, I bought it closer for me to scent, the smell of his cologne. I already knew it was Daniels's suit. I reluctantly placed it in the bag before walking to the kitchen to prepare dinner. By the time I had set the table, I heard a loud knock on the table, it was mom. I hastily welcomed her in as she continued to lament how busy her day was. I only stared at her listening to all her rants before I heard her say. "Are you alright Ivory?" she asked in a worried tone. "I'm fine," I immediately responded, I don't want her worrying herself to death over silly things. "Your eyes says a different thing," she insisted.
