Aria pulled her hand free from Evan’s the moment Leon stepped away from them.

Evan stepped closer to her and smiled mischievously. “Shall we discuss my terms now, then?”

Aria bit her lip. She knew she was in for trouble and that Evan was going to demand something ridiculous from her.

“We’ll talk later. You heard my mentor, right? I have work to do.” Aria said, avoiding Evan’s eyes.

Evan reached out and held her jaw gently. “Babe, you can’t escape this. I’m sure you aren’t thinking of doing th

  • THE HEAT BETWEEN US   Her Weakness

    Evan pulled up his car in front of Aria and the other two people that were with her. He opened the door, stepped out and called to her loudly. “Babe, I’m here to pick you up.” Aria’s eyes widened with shock. All eyes turned to her as Evan walked towards her, smiling proudly like he had just won a medal. She bowed her head in embarrassment. She was going to keep it a secret that only her, Leon, Matteo and Maureen knew about but Evan ruined it. Then it dawned on her. It was Evan’s first term for their fake relationship. He wanted everyone to know.Evan reached her and took her bag from her, while maintaining his usual flirty smile. “You guys must be my girlfriend’s classmates. I’m Evan Leclerc. Aria’s boyfriend and I’ll be directing the academy’s documentary.” Evan said, placing his left hand on Aria’s waist.Maureen was more shocked. “You had a boyfriend? And he’s Evan Leclerc? Why didn’t you tell me? I feel like a fool for talking about you and Chef Leon in that way.”Aria felt b

Evan reached out and held her jaw gently. “Babe, you can’t escape this. I’m sure you aren’t thinking of doing that though. I’ll pick you up from the academy after. Unblock me and pick my call whenever I call you.”“Okay, I will.” Aria nodded.“That’s a good girl. See you later.” Evan kissed her cheeks and winked before walking away.Aria shut her eyes in anger. She couldn’t believe she was letting a self-centered man like Evan back into her life. As she opened her eyes, she saw Matteo standing at a distance. She almost jumped out of her skin.“Sorry for startling you…. And for seeing something you probabl

    CHAPTER 10Aria stepped out of the dorm with Maureen, the morning air cool against her skin.Maureen adjusted the strap of her bag. “I still can't believe today is the official first day. I feel like both of us have come a long way.”Aria smiled. “I know, right? It feels like I've known you for years.”“We meet our mentors first, right?” Maureen continued. “Then straight to the conference room with Principal Celeste. I wonder what else she wants to discuss. She has literally said everything we need to know.”Aria laughed. “We can't know too much. Who knows if a new rule has come out.”“Something like dating your mentorship mates is prohibited.!”Maureen said, mimicking Celeste's way of speaking.Aria laughed. “ I don’t think the rule about the relationship with your mentors is wrong. It’ll prevent a lot of things.”Maureen bumped her shoulder playfully. “Girl, you’re no fun. I wouldn’t say this if my mentor was a man and was as hot as Leon Cordon. I mean, have you seen him? He was a mo

    CHAPTER 9Aria woke up right before her alarm went off. The room was still dark and quiet. She could only hear the sound her own breathing and Maureen sighing heavily in her sleep. She lay on her back, staring at the ceiling, letting the weight of everything settle slowly on her chest.Her mother was gone.Her father had never really supported her.The man she trusted enough to love had cheated on her.And she had slept with the one person she was never supposed to cross that line with.A short, humorless laugh escaped her lips.If someone had told her a year ago that this would be her life, she would have called it cruel fiction.But here she was. Everything happening to her at once.She had gotten into the academy. The same academy her mother was enrolled too. She had secured a place in the mentorship program. And no matter how messy things had become, she couldn’t afford to let anyone know about her and Leon Cordon. That mistake had to stay buried. Permanently. Forever.Aria tur

  • THE HEAT BETWEEN US   LIES

    CHAPTER 8Only one question stayed with Aria as she stepped out of the boardroom.Why did he choose to come back?After what happened in his house—after the kiss, the memories, the question she ran away from—she had already convinced herself that Leon Cordon would never show up. That he would walk away like he always did. But he came back. For her. And that scared her more than his absence ever did.“What if he has an ulterior motive?” she murmured. “What if he’s doing this because of what happened between us?”The thought made her uneasy. She had worked too hard to get here. She couldn’t afford mistakes. She couldn’t afford emotions. And she definitely couldn’t afford going back to her father.“Aria! Come here!”Maureen’s voice cut through her thoughts.She looked up and saw her waving excitedly. Other students from the mentorship program were there too. Aria forced a smile and walked over.Maureen hugged her tightly the moment she reached her.“My girl! I knew it,” she said, bouncin

    CHAPTER SEVENAria blinked once.Twice.She wanted this to happen. She had prayed and wished for it with all her might, but now that it was happening, she couldn’t believe her eyes.She couldn’t believe Leon Cordon was standing in the boardroom, staring straight at her with a kind of hidden intent after refusing vehemently to be her mentor. The first question that rose in her mind was simple.Why did he come?And she wasn’t the only one.Everyone in the boardroom was equally surprised as murmurs filled the room.Unbelievable.Leon Cordon is back?Is that really him?Even Celeste was caught off guard, but she concealed it well. Clearing her throat, she tapped her hand lightly on the table, calling the room to order.“Welcome, Chef Cordon. You’re late. We were just about to start the meeting,” Celeste said, a slight smile on her face.“Nice to see you too, Principal Celeste,” Leon replied smoothly as he moved further into the room.“You can sit beside your mentee,” she said before turni
