NORA"What did you just do?" the basketball captain demanded, his voice low and dangerous. Jordan said nothing, his eyes still locked on the other captain. I was frozen in place, my heart pounding in my chest. "You need to calm down." I said, my voice shaking and coming out muffled. "There's no need for this." But my words fell on deaf ears, and the tension in the air was palpable. I could feel a storm brewing, and I didn't know how to escape it.In a sudden movement, Jordan turned and stormed away. The basketball captain took a step after him, his fists clenched, but I threw myself in front of him, blocking his path. "Please, just stop, this isn’t worth it." I pleaded, hoping he would heed to my persuasion. He looked down at me, and I could see the rage in his eyes, but something about my plea must have gotten through to him. He slowly lowered his fists, and I could feel the tension in the air begin to dissipate. I picked up his phone, and I could feel him watching me.I handed

THIRTY ONE

JORDAN I couldn't help but smirk as I watched Nora frantically try to put her phone away. She thought she was being so sly, but I had seen the flash from her camera. I snatched the phone from her hand and stared at the image on the screen. It was a photo of me, taken without my consent. My face darkened, but I kept my expression neutral. I handed the phone back to her, my gaze steely. "You shouldn't take photos of people without their permission, it’s a violation of privacy." Was all I said even though I so much would like to delete it, I didn’t. That would be the first photo of me I’ve ever seen; the exact reason I shouldn’t have left it off the hook.I could tell Nora was about to protest, but before she could say a word, I got up and started to walk out of the classroom. I didn't want to hear any of her excuses. I knew what she had done was wrong, and I didn't need to hear her try to defend herself. I put my hand in my jacket pocket, my heart humming silently from the adrenalin

THIRTY TWO

NORAI was so relieved when Jordan showed up. He was my only hope of getting out of this mess. But I couldn't help but feel worried. I knew he was a good fighter, but these guys looked like they meant business. As the punches started flying, my heart sank. I could only watch in horror as the blows landed. It was like watching a car crash in slow motion. I wanted to look away, but I couldn't tear my eyes away from the scene. I just hoped it would be over soon.As the fight progressed, I could see that Jordan was starting to tire. The men were relentless, and he was beginning to slow down. I bit my lip, my hands clenched into fists. I didn't know what to do. I wanted to help, but I was terrified. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw something glinting in the shadows. I turned to look, and my breath caught in my throat. A gun. I had to do something.Instead of reaching for the gun, I planted my feet and kicked one of the men in the stomach. He doubled over in pain, and I used th

THIRTY THREE

NORAI walked out of the classroom immediately the class came to an end, my strides as confident as ever. Meanwhile Natalie kept on grinning from ear to ear behind me, which had me rolling my eyes almost every second. That was the first time I shoved Cassidy back to her lane, in the presence of everyone so I guess, it has surprised everyone also, not only Natalie.“Did you see the size of her eyes? They were so widened by shock to the size of a saucer pan.” She continued to buttress as we walked out of the gate. “Can we please get something to munch on? Or am I the only exhausted one here?” I threw her a questioning brow and she pointed towards the opposite direction where I behold a small restaurant. Never knew that was there.“I must say, you have such a great sight.”As I stepped into the small restaurant with her, I'm immediately hit by the smell of delicious food. It's making my mouth water, and I can't wait to order something to eat. The waiter greeted us with a friendly smil

THIRTY FOUR

NORAImmediately he took that startled step back, we sprinted out of the school gates, our backpacks bouncing on our backs. Our laughter faded as we ran, panting for breath as we rounded the corner. We stopped and leaned against a wall, our chests heaving as we tried to catch our breath. We looked at each other, eyes wide with shock and adrenaline. "That was close." I said, my heart still pounding in my chest. "Way too close," Natalie agreed, her face flushed with exertion. "I can't believe we did that."I was about to call my driver when I saw a familiar car pull up in front of us. My shoulders sagged with relief when I saw the limousine service logo on the side of the car. The window rolled down, and my driver's surprised face greeted us. "You're late." I said, trying to laugh off our antics. He most definitely has some explaining to do. "Sorry about that, Miss. I got caught in the traffic. Is everything alright?" his face apologetic, he asked, looking a bit flustered as he ma

THIRTY FIVE

NORAJust as I was about to hit the ice, I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist. I was pulled back to my feet, my thumping heart a living testimony of how scared I was.I turned to see Jordan's face, and I noticed the glint in his eyes. He wasn't concerned, he was teasing me. I pushed him away, trying to regain my composure. "Thanks for the assist." I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "Anytime." he replied, a grin spreading across his face. I rolled my eyes and turned to skate away, determined to put that moment behind me.I skated over to where my father was standing, a smile breaking out on my face. He opened his arms and pulled me into a tight hug. "You did it." he said, pride shining in his eyes. I smiled up at him, knowing how much this meant to him. I looked over his shoulder, trying to avoid looking at Jordan. The last thing I wanted was to see the smug look on his face so I focused on my father instead.I headed to the dressing room, eager to get out of my d

THIRTY SIX

NORAI turned the lock in the knob and twirled the key in my hand, firm on my words. Natalie stepped back, her brows furrowed. “I was just kidding. I’m only going there to be taught.” I knew what was really going on, even if Natalie was trying to downplay it. She was interested in Jordan, and I wasn't going to let her put herself in that situation. I saw the conflict in her eyes, but I didn't back down. I was determined to protect her, even if it meant hurting her feelings. "I know you're not being honest with me," I said, my tone unwavering. "You're trying to convince me that this is only about homework, but I know better."Without saying a word, I turned the key in the lock and opened the door, holding it open just a crack. Natalie took a step towards the door, her eyes meeting mine. I could see the indecision in her face, and I could tell she was torn. She took a deep breath, as if steeling herself, and then she stepped through the door. I watched as she hesitated for a moment

THIRTY SEVEN

NORAI watched as Lucan revved the engine, his fingers gripping the steering wheel with determination. He gave me a quick smile, his eyes flashing with excitement. And then, we were off, speeding down the track, the wind whipping through my hair. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, and I tried to focus on the road ahead, my eyes fixed on the finish line. But in the corner of my eye, I could see Jordan’s car, keeping pace with Lucan’s. We were in it together, and I felt a surge of adrenaline.I turned to Lucan, unable to hide the nervousness in my voice. "Can we win this?" I asked, my tone hesitant. Lucan didn't look at me, his eyes focused on the road ahead. But he nodded, his jaw set with determination. I tried to draw strength from his confidence, but my eyes were drawn to the other car on the track, the car driven by Jordan. It was pulling ahead, and I felt a sinking feeling in my stomach. But then, Lucan did something unexpected. He shifted gears, his foot pressing dow

THIRTY EIGHT

NORAI blankly resisted the urge to cackle into laughter.I looked up at Jordan, my heart beeping when his eyes went even much more intensified on me. His eyes were cold and unyielding, and I knew that he wasn't going to back down. I felt the sinking feeling in her stomach deepen, as I shook my head, he won’t be the one to tell me what to do."No." It was a blatant refusal. I don’t know why he suddenly wanted me away from the party I came on my own. "You can't make me leave." He didn't say anything, but his expression remained unchanged. As I stood next to Natalie, the music thumped in her ears, the bass vibrating through her body. The lights were flashing, the air filled with the scent of alcohol and sweat. The party was in full swing, the crowd bubbling with energy. I felt a little calmer now that I was with her, but I could still feel the tension thrumming through me.I watched as Natalie moved towards the dance floor, her eyes fixed on a boy across the room. My friend smiled fli

THIRTY NINE

NORAI stood there, frozen in place, as I watched Jordan approach the guy who had been flirting with me. I don’t know how he managed to know what was going on here but here he is anyway, and I couldn't believe what was happening. When Jordan spoke to the guy in that low, threatening voice, I can subconsciously sense terrifying terror gathering across the guy's spine. And when the guy turned and fled without a word, I was left feeling both relieved and unsettled. What had just happened? Why had Jordan come to my defense like that? And why did his actions make me feel so conflicted?I opened my mouth to speak, but before I could utter a word, Jordan turned and walked away. I stood there, rooted to the spot, watching as he disappeared around the corner. And then, without thinking, I found myself following him. He stopped by his motorcycle, swinging his leg over the seat. I hesitated, unsure what to do. But then he patted the seat next to him, and something inside me compelled me to cl
