After staring at the photograph for nearly ten minutes, Kaizen finally grabbed his phone.

His fingers hovered over Auren's contact before pressing call.

The cheerful voice answered almost instantly.

"Big bro!"

Kaizen closed his eyes.

"Auren... listen carefully."

The smile disappeared from Auren's voice.

"What's wrong?"

"For the next few days..."

"I need you to go straight from school to the hospital."

"Stay with Mom until visiting hours end."

"Don't leave her room alone."

Auren frowned.

"Did so

  • The Campus King's Secret    Home Isn't Home

    The morning after Nyra's drunken episode, she woke up with a pounding headache.Kaizen was already outside, leaning against the car with two cups of coffee.He can't even risk staying in the inn one more day with Nyra. "Morning, alcoholic."She glares at him."I had one glass.""You confessed your love to a loaf of bread.""I WHAT?"“Get ready in fifteen minutes we're leaving”“At least…hold up, let's have break….”“No” Kaizen immediately shut her up.“We aren't eating anything here”“I can't risk seeing you drunk after one sip of wine, water here might be toxic to your body system.”He chuckled, obviously enjoying the effects of his sarcastic comment, really enjoying her panic…Nyra hurriedly dressed up and made her way out of the inn. The manager bid them farewell because she had clearly enjoyed Thier stay as the youngest fake couples in the inn. The atmosphere was light, bright with soft gentle breeze blowing. But Kaizen was unsteady, he kept on checking the rearview mirror.E

  • The Campus King's Secret    Oops...My Fake Husband!!!

    The inn was silent, not the comforting kind of silence.The unsettling one where every creak sounded deliberate.Nyra shifted beneath the blanket, Something felt...off.She frowned and lazily reached toward the other side of the bed. It was Cold.Her eyes snapped open.The space beside her was empty."Kaizen?"No answer.The bathroom door stood open and empty.Her heartbeat picked up, immediately She slipped out of bed, wincing as the cold wooden floor greeted her bare feet.The room door wasn't fully closed, Just slightly ajar."...Kaizen?"Still nothing.She pushed it open.The hallway stretched before her, dimly lit by old lanterns swaying gently in the night breeze.At the far end...a familiar figure stood barefoot.His back faced her, Motionless.The moonlight spilling through the windows painted silver across his broad shoulders."Kaizen?"He didn't react, She slowly walked closer.He wasn't awake.His gray eyes were open… but completely empty Like he was staring at somethin

  • The Campus King's Secret    The Cottage Falls

    The night outside the cottage was too quiet, not peaceful, but something was wrong. Kaizen noticed it first, that odd feeling…He stood by the window for a long second, hand slowly tightening around his phone.Nyra was still inside, folding the last of her things.“You’re rushing again,” she muttered.He didn’t answer.Instead, he walked past her and grabbed the duffel bag.“We’re leaving.”Nyra frowned immediately.“At this time…it's late please.?”Kaizen’s eyes flicked to the dark tree line beyond the glass.Something moved, not wind, Not animals….but Human.Mr Harris visitation was really a pain in the ass, not only did he expose his childhood secrets, he had called the estate manager innocently of his arrival.Now his secret hideout cottage is unsafe, the chairman won't stop until he finds out who Nyra is. His voice dropped lower. “ let's move Now.”Nyra didn’t get another explanation because the next second, A loud CRACK echoed from outside.Glass shattered near the rear of the

  • The Campus King's Secret    One week of Peace

    One week after the threatening message from Solenne, he purposely refused to go back to school to see the chairman. Somehow enjoying his serenity with Nyra is the most satisfying moment he had had in years ever since his mom became sick. Morning sunlight spilled through the old cottage windows, turning the floating dust into tiny specks of gold. The place no longer felt abandoned. A sweater Nyra had forgotten hung over the back of a chair, two mugs sat in the sink…. Her study notes were scattered across the dining table, mixed with Kaizen's textbook, the pages filled with her neat handwriting and his careless scribbles.Life had quietly settled into a routine, Every morning, Nyra bullied him into studying.Every afternoon, Kaizen complained that she smiled too much whenever he answered a question wrong.Every evening, they argued over who was making dinner.It was strange even though they felt relaxed knowing fully well that danger still existed, The Chairman still existed, …B

    The rain had settled into a gentle rhythm, tapping softly against the cottage roof as though the outside world had finally forgotten they existed.Kaizen stood by the fireplace, one shoulder resting against the stone wall while absent-mindedly stirring the dying embers with a metal poker. The orange flames reflected in his gray eyes, but there was no warmth in them.Nyra sat cross-legged on the rug, hugging a cushion against her chest.For several minutes, neither of them spoke…the silence wasn't awkward anymore.It was... comfortable.Finally, Nyra broke it with a sigh. The silence had become too heavy..they both knew it.Without another word, he disappeared into the small storage room before returning with a dusty cardboard box.Nyra frowned."What's that?""Our only chance of preventing you from interrogating me for the next three hours."He dropped the box onto the coffee table.Inside lay faded playing cards, old Scrabble tiles, dominoes and a worn chessboard.Her eyes lit up.

  • The Campus King's Secret    Serenity

    The cottage was unusually quiet, No alarms…..No noisy students arguing in the hallway….No luxury cars roaring outside the penthouse….Only the gentle rustling of pine trees beyond the windows and the cheerful songs of birds welcoming the morning.For the first time in what felt like forever, Nyra slept without waking every few minutes to the sound of Kaizen sneaking out into another dangerous night.Warm sunlight slipped through the curtains and settled softly across her face.She frowned, burying herself deeper beneath the thick blanket.Then...Her nose twitched.Something smelled......wonderful.Butter,Fresh bread,Eggs,Coffee.Her stomach growled before her brain had fully awakened.She slowly pushed herself upright, immediately regretting it.Every muscle in her body protested.Her legs still ached from running through the underground tunnels.Her shoulders felt heavy.Even breathing reminded her of the recent asthma attack."So this is how he feels after every fight..." she m

    That night, sleep refused to come, I lay motionless on my bed, staring at the ceiling while moonlight spilled through the glass windows of the penthouse.The room was silent….too silent.Every time I closed my eyes, Auren's voice echoed inside my head,"Mom is dying."The words wouldn't leave me al
