Alex’s POV“Alicia, please. I would come and join you later,” I said as I tried to touch her face but she rolled her eyes at me and shifted from me.I could see the rage in her eyes. Did she know that I was staying back so I could talk to Briana?But I can’t help it. I need to talk to her now– I needed an explanation, at least.Adrian took Alicia’s hand. “Let’s go, Alicia.”She locked eyes with me, before she turned and left. I kept my eyes on them, as they were about to cross the exit, she turned back to look at me and I looked away.A soft sigh of relief escaped my lips as she left. I leaned back and crossed my arms as I thought of how I would talk to Briana. How would I even start the conversation? Hey, Briana, I thought you were dead, how are you alive?That sounds stupid.The class emptied up slowly as the students went out one after the other. Briana started to pack her books as she got ready to leave the class. I placed my hand on her desk and stopped her.“Briana, please cut
Alicia’s POVBriana? Is alive. Goddess, am I terrible for hating this news. It was supposed to be good news but hell yes I have to admit that it sounded bad to me. I looked up at her and gulped as fear gripped me– she looked like a goddess and I barely looked great, sometimes I even dressed like a tom boy. I didn’t even hold a candle to her god damn it. She smiled brightly and she was looking at– Alex. I faced him to see he was gawking at her. Though my hand was on his, I knew in his spirit he had reached where she was and held her. “Alicia?” Adrian called me and I turned to him. “Are you okay?” he asked. I faked a smile and nodded at him. “Of course.” Not. I finished in my mind. Adrian tapped my shoulder. “Good girl.”I blinked and looked back at Alex. That question should be for him, because he was the one looking like he was about to run all the way to the front of the class to meet her.“What’s wrong, Alex?” I asked. He ws mute, his lips still parted as he stared at Briana wh
Alex’s POV“Pass me the butter, please,” I said to Alicia. We were at the dining table having dinner with our parents.Alicia looked up and shoved the butter in front of herself across to me. I smiled and let my finger linger on hers.Step Mum and Dad had their heads down and were focused on their food. Alicia looked at them, scared they would see and then she looked at Arnold and Adrian.They were looking at us. Adrian narrowed his eyes at us but Arnold seemed to be burning in jealousy, I smirked at him, making him feel worse.She turned red and pulled her hand off mine. I shook my head and continued eating.Step mom cleared her throat and asked, “How is Finn?” I looked up, taken aback and I studied Alicia's body language. She was uncomfortable and she shoved food into her mouth. “You didn't tell me about how your date with him that day went,” Step mum pressed on.Alicia dropped her fork, irritated. “We broke up. He turned out to be a jerk.”Dad and Step Mum shared a look. “Did he
Bella’s POV“How did I wake up so late?” I groaned as I buttoned my school uniform. My eyes darted to the wall clock and it was almost past Eight. A knock on the door made me groan in annoyance. “Wait a little bit more, Cyra. I know I;m late already.” My shoulders dropped. “This is your fault, you know? Why didn’t you wake me up today?”Cyra had to wake me up for me to go to school early, whenever I had to get up on my own, the alarm would ring and turn off on its own and it was the morning sun hitting my face that always woke me up. “Bella, it’s your Dad.”I froze when I heard Dad’s voice. He didn’t have to tell me who he was for me to know. What was Dad doing here this morning?He had not been to my room in ages. I rushed to the door and opened it up. Dad was standing out there in his favourite silver robe. “Good morning, Dad,"I said and bowed a little. He nodded and entered. “Bella, good day. I see you are getting late for school.”I shut the door and came to him. “Yes, Dad.”“I
Alicia’s POV“I would leave it all behind– I will forget about Briana and stand by you from now on.” Alex whispered to me as he cupped my face. I smiled softly, he dropped and kissed me softly on the lips. “Stop it, Alex. We are in school, someone will see us.”I pushed him off and rolled my eyes. Alex pinched my cheeks and took my hand. “Let’s go to class.”I nodded and we got to class. The moment we sat on our seats, I saw Arnold peering at us, but I rolled my eyes and turned away from him. The teacher clapped his hand and all of us faced him. “Attention students,” he called. “What did he want to say? Who was in trouble now?” A student whispered to another. Who lifted his head and looked in our direction. “Who else, if not the most popular in school?”I rolled my eyes and ignored them. “Students, I am here to announce the move of a student of this class.”“WHO?” Questions flew in the air and it just annoyed me. Why aren’t they patient enough to let the teacher disclose everything
Claudia’s POVI thought a honeymoon was supposed to be enjoyed– well mine turned out to be my greatest nightmares of all. I rolled my eyes as I turned on the bed, facing the window and I looked out of it. This is a torment, why did Dad have to send me with Kinn.Why should I spend a honeymoon with him, after he killed Lana. My eyes watered and I gritted my teeth. “He killed her!!” I yelled out, in rage.“Who?” I flinched when I heard Kinn beside me. “Who killed who?” He asked again, his shoe clicking on the tiled flow as he approached me slowly. I sat up on the bed, my legs sore from what he had done to me last night. I couldn’t stop him, he was my mate and when he touched me, I couldn’t resist.“You killed Lana,” I replied to him as I jumped off the bed and went to the window. Anger surged in my insides as I shook my head in disgust. He chuckled behind me and touched my back. I jumped away from him. “Not today– you had your fun last night so don’t touch me again.”Kinn clicked his
