Chapter 7...DarienWe got back to our room after parting ways with Lina and Janna in the hallway. I walked to the table where there was a jug filled with water and drank a glass of water before heading to the couch. I sank onto it, exhaling deeply as I covered my face with my palm. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and continued with the game I was playing earlier on. I wasn't even half way to the level when Kai sat beside me and slung an arm over the back of my shoulders.“Easy white chocolate, I'm tryna clear this level before time runs out.” I said shifting slightly, just enough to shrug Kaiza’s arm off.“My battery is flat right now, so I've got nothing to do.” He said, slouching on the chair. I didn't respond to him.“So tell me, you were last seen with Lina before passing out. Mind sharing what you both were talking about?” He said grinning.” “If you're that bored, come help me out and take out the trash or vacuum the floor.” Blake cut in.I paused my game and turned

Chapter 6...Lina I blinked hard, trying to get a picture of where I was and for a second, I thought I saw four angelic figures hovering over me. There were muffled noises nearby and the scrapes of a chair leg. Ha. Then again, luck and I had always been polar opposites, it turned out to be the four guys who somehow always managed to mess with my peace. “She's waking up.” Someone said, low and cautious. My eyes fluttered open, and the infirmary ceiling welcomed me first. I winced, trying to sit upright, then I saw the four of them, each wearing a different expression. Azrael looked like he was forced to be here, he was the furthest from me. Kaiza leaned against the foot of the bed, with his diamond necklace glinting over his half unbuttoned shirt, while Blake was by the window, his hands in his pocket, staring out like he didn't want to look at me and Darien sat near the bed, his arm crossed tightly over his chest. “Our little princess is up,” Kaiza said causally, with his ey

Chapter 5...LinaA low, guttural growl sliced through the silence.My spine snapped straight. Then the door slammed shut behind me, locking me in with them.Four shadows stood in the center of the room. No, not shadows–boys. Huge, shirtless, furious boys, bodies coiled with tension. Their eyes glowed red. All of them.One of them–Azrael, I could recognize him–took a step forward, his hands clenched. His pupils weren’t just red; they were feral.“What did you do?” Kaiza’s voice was sharp, and somewhere beneath it, a snarl twisted the air.“I–” I backed away. My heel hit the edge of the stone step behind me. “I didn’t mean to-”The room suddenly felt chilly and Blake was suddenly in front of me.He didn’t touch me, he just scanned me. His gaze flicked from my face to my throat to my chest, like he was looking for something invisible. I was extremely tense with how up close he was. Then he cursed under his breath. “She stepped on the line.”“Uhm, what line?” I snapped. My heart was t

Chapter 4...Lina My stomach twisted when I got in. The class seemed bitter-sweet. Some looked infuriated, staring at their phone, while some were chatting with their friends. It somewhat made me less tense.There she was.Brienna.Sitting near the middle, a leg crossed over the other, notebook open, pen spinning in her fingers. She looked up as I entered. Her lips twitched into a slow, knowing smirk.I dropped into the seat farthest from her and opened my textbook, but I could swear anyone who took a good look at me knew I wasn’t reading.I could feel her watching me.Like she knew.And that smile?She wanted me to know she knew.“Linaaaa.” Brienna called.My heart raced fast as I turned to look at her.“Hey girly.” I said with an awkward smile.“New seat position?” She asked, tilting her head. “Nah, I just wanna crash here for a while.” I replied.“You're always crashing in the wrong seat.” She said, chuckling.Before I could reply, I picked up an enchanting fragrance. I knew

Chapter 3...LinaA lump formed in my throat as I checked the contents of the letter. “We have been expecting you.” It was boldly written in red ink. Expecting me? Was this some kind of prank for new students? Or did I already start off with an enemy? “This isn't funny,” I muttered under my breath, turning the paper again.“Hey you okay?” Janna said softly, catching the look on my face.I nodded even though I wasn't sure.I took in a few deep breaths and a sweet scent flooded into my nostrils. It came from the paper I was holding. It was even perfumed? How ridiculous.Before I could process more, Janna cut through my thoughts.“So weird,” Janna mumbled. “I asked to room with my best friend this semester, but they said the space was reserved for someone important.”“Important?” I raised a brow.“Their word, not mine.” She smiled. “But I think it's you, since you came in mid semester.” Me? Does the school know something about this letter? And more importantly, why was I in the m

Chapter 2...Lina After a while, I was able to pinpoint where my next class was.Everyone's attention turned to me when I stood in front of the door.Some were already glancing at me, while some seemed somewhat excited to see me.“Phew.” I said, slouching on the nearest empty chair.A shadow hovered for a second. I glanced up and saw a girl with long layered jet black hair and a white headband leaning in slightly, her head tilted like she was trying to get a good look at me. Her lips a bruised rose shade, eyes gray and sharp, and her sheen black hair with bangs casting a faint shadow over her unreadable eyes.“God has favourites,” I mumbled under my breath.I straightened up in my seat, turning slightly to her. “And you are?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.“It seems you're new here,” She smiled. “I'm Brienna. Brienna Noir. Nice to meet you.” She said leaning on the table in front of me. “Nice to meet you too. I'm Lina Haven.” I replied. “Ouu pretty name. Well you see Lina, you'r
