Chapter: Chapter Ninety Five
Mason’s povThe rain poured down as the three of us stood in front of the grave without an umbrella nor a raincoat. Instead we just stood with our heads down letting the rain pour on our frames without a word. Elena fell to her knees, her lips pale yet she refused to leave the rain. She knelt down while Damien and I stood with our hands in our pocket, calls kept coming in from our phones but we both didn't lift up the device to even take a little peek.Why did they call? We knew why they called, we knew why they wanted our attention so bad. Because of the burning company, let it burn to flames and reach the point of bankruptcy after all she was the only reason I created the company in the first place. Now she's gone, I give her the company as her farewell gift.I took out the glass cigar box before walking to a corner which was covered from the rain and lit up the cancer stick. One drag...then another, Damien came to stand beside me, pulling out a tobacco to place between his lips

Chapter: Chapter Ninety Four
Third person POVVivian's eyes fluttered open, only to see someone she didn't expect to see again till she left this world.While she stared at her stalker, a woman in red heels walked towards Elena's room with a gun in her hand and she hummed a familiar tune in her head with her hands tapping on her gown in a particular rhythm and her steps towards the room skipping as she danced to the song in her head like a total psychopath.Her eyes widened with joy and her hair tied to a neat bun on her head while her short red gown gave her a very sexy yet dangerous feeling. Her beautiful heels tapped on the floor elegantly as she danced right in front of Elena's room.Elena heard the sounds of footsteps and turned to look at the door where the footsteps got louder but disoriented like the person was... dancing and humming a very familiar tune mixed with a very familiar voice.The door sprang open and Rose came in and shut the door slowly behind her before she moved to dance again while spinnin

Chapter: Chapter Ninety Three
Damien's POVI watched as she picked up the phone to talk to Elena, completely ignoring my presence even as I tried to make myself obvious by serving her tea or giving her fruits.Her eyes were still focused on the device in her hand without even turning her pupils for a second."You better attend to your man before he swells up like a bullied child" she paused, confused , then turned to look at me. Instead of looking like the bullied child like I did a second ago, I only looked back at her like I was actually bored and not at all seeking attention."Should we go out?" I asked but she didn't seem to be hearing her words as she was only focused on Elena who was in front of her. With the background, it was obvious she was still in the hospital. It seems she's going to be there till her arm heals completely and I'm sure that's where the therapist is coming to visit them both."Are you two getting closer?" Asked the mischievous little Vivian who seemed to have invincible horns in her head

Chapter: Chapter Ninety Two
Vivian's POVJust as we finished eating, he stood up to pay the bills before we entered the car of the driver who had been waiting for us for over five minutes."Sorry for the delay" Damien apologized while I rested against him, too tired to talk."It's alright" the man replied before driving off, I could hear him describe places in Europe but that's not what I was mostly concerned about, I just wanted to see it. The tower of love."We are here." I could hear someone say and without opening my eyes I knew it was Damien. He picked me up, placed me on my wheelchair while I struggled to open my eyes. Good thing he gave me a pair of sunglasses in advance."Where is it?." I looked around but couldn't find it. He stood behind me and turned my wheelchair around making me marvel at the beautiful sight which stood in all its glory."Let's go take pictures" he called a photographer he saw who walked over to take pictures of us."Sir pick her up instead, it looks too formal with the wheelchair"

Chapter: Chapter Ninety One
Damien's POVI felt nervous as she walked over without speaking a word. I could feel a thin sheet of sweat slightly covering my forehead as she walked over to the big sign.Did she want to tear it down? She doesn't like something like this or maybe she wanted something more glamorous.My hands fumbled with each other and I pulled off my glasses to clean them before placing them back on. She got there with her shaky legs and I wanted to walk over to support her just in case but I know even if anything could happen I'll be there on time no matter what."Yes I'll marry you" Her words broke through my whole being and I shivered as my teary eyes met hers and a bright smile followed her words. I couldn't help but rush over to embrace her, before my hands could wrap around her she suddenly raised her hand to stop me."Where is it?" She looked around as if searching for something which confused me as I looked around with her too."What are you searching for?" "You didn't forget the ring did

Chapter: Chapter Ninety
Vivian's POVI sat in the plane looking around excitedly when he placed his hand on mine."Rest or you'll just tire yourself out" he spoke softly but I wasn't having any of it, I was already tired but I wouldn't tell him that, it's just a symptom. I'm sure he knew of the symptoms already, maybe he just wanted to act like it didn't exist and o wouldn't mind."No, I'm so bored, I want to play" I was cut off by a pair of soft lips smashing against mine. I mumbled and whined as he deepened the kiss and I couldn't help but feel fireworks burst behind my eyelids."There are children on the plane" a voice interrupted making me push away but the man in my arms wasn't allowing it as he pressed my body against him further but giving me a breathing space. I tried to push him away but his hands held mine. Even when I tried biting his tongue it didn't stop his wondering tongue as his tongue sank in to explore my whole mouth making me feel like an art being explored beautifully.I finally gave in t

My Teacher Is Mine

My Teacher Is Mine

Lydia Martins, the smart kid at school, is the constant target of bullies like Emily, the wealthy businessman's daughter, who torments Lydia for getting perfect grades.

Humiliated, Lydia soon finds photos from the incident circulating online with vile captions calling her a ‘Slut’ and the ‘Teacher’s Pet’.

Chapter: Chapter eighty two
I lay there staring at Marcus's ceiling, my body still humming but my mind completely empty.Or not empty. Too full. Too loud.Derek's face kept flashing in my mind. I don't want you. The words echoed over and over, drowning out everything else."Emily?" Marcus's hand touched my shoulder gently. "You okay?"No. I wasn't okay. I'd just fucked someone while imagining another person. I'd used him like a blow-up doll, a Derek-shaped substitute that failed miserably at its only job."I'm fine.""That was..." He trailed off, probably searching for the right word. Intense? Aggressive? Fucking weird? "Different. Are you sure you're okay?"I sat up, reaching for my clothes scattered across his bedroom floor. We'd made it upstairs eventually. "I said I'm fine.""Emily, talk to me. Something's clearly wrong—""Nothing's wrong." I pulled my shirt over my head. "This was a mistake. I should go.""Wait, what?" Marcus sat up, confusion and hurt written all over his face. "You show up here, we have s

Emily's POVI sat in my car outside Marcus's house, my hands still gripping the steering wheel even though I'd turned off the engine twenty minutes ago.My phone lay on the passenger seat, screen still cracked from when I'd thrown it. The kidnapping confirmation glowed in my messages.*Monday evening. Target: Lydia Martins. $7,500 received.*Four days until she disappeared.Four days until Derek understood what he'd thrown away.But four days felt like forever right now, and the rage burning through my veins needed an outlet.I grabbed my phone and texted Marcus.*Me: You busy?*The response came immediately.*Marcus: Just got back from practice. What's up?**Me: Can I come over?**Marcus: I thought you said we were done?**Me: I changed my mind. Your parents home?**Marcus: On a trip until Sunday. Why?*Perfect.*Me: I'm outside.*I got out of the car and walked to his door. He opened it shirtless, basketball shorts hanging low on his hips, confused expression on his face."Emily, wh

"How? How is it different? We're both eighteen. Both your students. Both willing. The only difference is she got to you first."I needed to end this. Needed to be brutal enough that she'd never try this again."The difference," I said, making my voice as cold as I could, "is that I don't want you."She flinched like I'd slapped her."You don't mean that.""I do." I released her wrist and stepped back, putting distance between us. "Emily, I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression two years ago, or any time since. But helping you through a panic attack doesn't mean I have feelings for you. Being kind doesn't mean I want a relationship with you. And frankly, this entire conversation is inappropriate and needs to end. Now."Tears filled her eyes. "But I love you.""No, you don't. You've built up one moment of kindness into something it was never meant to be.""You don't get to tell me what I feel!""And you don't get to manipulate me with threats about Lydia." I shifted into offense, t

Chapter: Chapter seventy nine
Derek's POVI sat at my desk grading essays, though my mind was barely on the work. Every time I tried to focus on metaphor analysis or thesis statements, my thoughts drifted back to Monday.Lydia in my bed. Lydia's skin under my hands. Lydia saying "I love you" like it was the only truth that mattered.And then the guilt. Always the guilt.She had to keep dating Mason. I'd told her that. Told her it was necessary for the cover, for safety, even though the thought of him touching her made me want to put my fist through a wall.A knock on the door pulled me from my thoughts."Come in."Emily Spencer entered, and something in my gut immediately tensed.She looked different. Smaller somehow. Vulnerable. The sweater she wore slipped off one shoulder, and her eyes were red-rimmed like she'd been crying.Nothing like the confident girl who usually commanded every room she walked into."Emily." I set down my pen. "Close the door and have a seat."She closed the door but stood there, arms wra

"Liar." I moved closer, around the desk. "You love her. I can see it every time you look at her. And you know what? I get it. I understand what it's like to love someone you can't have.""Emily, stop.""Why? Because the truth makes you uncomfortable? Because you know I'm right?" I was close enough to touch him now. "I've loved you since that day two years ago. And I know you don't love me back. Not yet. But you could."I reached up to touch his face.He caught my wrist. "Don't.""Why not? You touch her.""That's different.""How? How is it different? We're both eighteen. Both your students. Both willing. The only difference is she got to you first.""The difference," Derek said, his voice hard, "is that I don't want you."The words hit like a slap."You don't mean that.""I do." He released my wrist and stepped back. "Emily, I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression two years ago, or any time since.

Chapter: Chapter seventy seven
I stood outside Derek's classroom door, checking my reflection in my phone screen one last time.Hair: loose, slightly messy, like I'd been running my hands through it.Makeup: minimal, with just enough redness around my eyes to suggest I'd been crying.Clothes: the same sweater from Tuesday, the one that slipped off my shoulder. He'd remember it.I looked fragile. Breakable. Nothing like the Emily Spencer who ruled the school.Everything like the girl behind the bleachers two years ago.I took a breath and knocked."Come in."Derek sat at his desk, grading papers. The classroom was empty, afternoon sunlight streaming through the windows."Emily." He set down his pen. "Close the door and have a seat."I closed the door but didn't sit. Instead, I stood there, wrapping my arms around myself."Thanks for making time for me," I said quietly. "I know you're busy.""It's fine. That's what office hours are for." He gestured to the chair across from his desk. "Please, sit. You look like you'r

Chapter: What We Almost Left
Barbara’s povThe bracelet felt heavier than it should have, I could tell it wasn’t physical because it would show obviously if it was because of how heavy it is but this time it was different. This time, it wasn’t bulky or uncomfortable that made my skin react like the usual bracelets or anything jewelry would have done to me. Instead, it fit perfectly around my wrist, like it had always belonged there, like it was actually mine and I was the original owner.But there was something that was different, I could feel it in my skin, there was a faint warmth against my skin, it wasn’t uncomfortable or annoying at all like the bracelet my uncle had given me before I got admission into this school. This warmth was faint, it was subtle and it was constant which almost felt grounding, not in a bad way.I stared at it for a second before pushing the door open.The room was dimly lit, it wasn’t the exact opposite but something just felt different.Only the small desk lamp by Lily’s side was

Chapter: When The Dark Pulls
Tristan’s povI knew something was off the moment I saw her walking by her side, it didn’t look like it was dramatic because there was no lightning and no sudden tension in the air.Everything just felt wrong and terrible which made something in me awaken. Instead, it was the kind of wrong you don’t notice at first until your instincts start scratching at the back of your mind.I was already halfway to the training ground with my often worn hoodie slung over my shoulder, that was when I spotted someone walking ahead of me. I spotted ahead.It was Barbara.She wasn’t dressed like she was just taking a stroll around the gym, she was actually walking alone and it was toward the forest that was behind the school. The forest is very notorious for having lots of injuries and horrible tales that are tied to it.I slowed my steps slightly, frowning as I headed to talk to her. “That’s new,” I muttered.She didn’t usually come this way, especially not alone. The times I’ve seen her here was eit

Chapter: Lines We Cross
Tristan’s povThere’s a certain kind of silence that only exists in our dorm, it was not the peaceful kind but it wasn’t the calm and quiet kind people like to pretend they enjoy.No, that was not the case. In our case, it was the kind that always felt like something was about to happen, like a storm patiently stalling just beneath the surface, waiting for the big day to come.I pushed the door open without knocking. Of course, it was my room too. Initially, it was supposed to be my room only, not until my dad decided my brothers had to stay with me, citing that he doesn’t trust them enough to stay by themselves without being supervised.At first, I was totally against the idea but after he promised to get me whatever I want and wouldn’t ask me a thing about it, except my engagement with Cheryl. That was the only thing he told me no and declined my offer of exchanging with either of my brothers.Jeremiah was sprawled across the couch like he owned the place which, technically, I did.

Chapter: The Space Between Us
Barbara’s pov By the time I got back to the dorm, my entire body ached from all the vigorous and rigorous exercise and workouts Tristan had made me go through. It was not the normal kind of ache and definitely wasn’t the soft, dull soreness that comes after a long day. This time around, it was deeper and sharper like my muscles had been pushed past their limits and were now quietly protesting every movement I made. I dropped my bag on the floor and shut the door behind me with my foot, letting out a slow breath as I leaned against it. Training with Tristan was a whole lot to process and deal with. He didn’t hold back like I thought he would. I thought maybe he would have empathy because I’m a girl but I was wrong. And the worst part was that I didn’t want him to, because every time he pushed me harder and every time he told me to go faster, hit stronger, react quicker, something inside me answered like my body knew what to do before I did and like it had been waiting for this.

Chapter: Breaking Points
Tristan’s povShe showed up and that was the first thing that surprised me, not because I thought she’d back out but because most people did.They talked big, made promises and acted brave, then disappeared the moment they realized what they signed up for.But Barbara?She stood at the edge of the training grounds behind the gym at exactly the time I told her.There was no hesitation on her end and no second-guessing.She was just there waiting and her arms crossed lightly, hair pulled back and her eyes scanning the area like she was already trying to understand it.I leaned against the fence for a moment, watching her before making my presence known.She hadn’t seen me yet or at least, I thought she hadn’t.“Are you going to keep staring or actually start?” she said without turning.I froze for half a second then smirked. “Careful with the way you speak to your coach” I said, pushing off the fence. “You’re already getting too bold.”She turned to face me. “Maybe you’re just slow, coa

Chapter: Terms That Are Conditional
Tristan’s povThere are days when the school feels normal.It felt too predictable, manageable and then there are days like this one, where nothing makes sense the moment I step outside.I saw her before she saw me.It was Barbara walking across the courtyard like she had somewhere specific to be, her steps steady, her posture straighter than usual.There was something different about her again.It wasn’t obvious, it wasn’t something anyone else would notice but I did. I always did.Her movements were sharper and felt more controlled like she was aware of every step she took.Every shift in her balance. It wasn’t dramatic, it was subtle but it was there and I didn’t like it.I leaned back slightly against the pillar, watching her approach.She didn’t hesitate when she spotted me or looked away like she would on a normal day. She didn’t pretend she hadn’t seen me.This time around, she walked straight toward me and that alone was enough to put me on edge.Barbara never approached me. N
