The cafeteria was eerily silent. No one was saying anything to anyone but all eyes were on my table. I looked up to see Ivy and Tommy looking uncomfortable and I could see the fear on Ivy's face."So, why did you skip school last week?" Hunter asked as he turned to face me. A leg was placed on the bench he was sitting on."It's none of your business," I replied angrily."It is my business as long as it is your business. We had that agreement the day I helped you out, remember?" He touched my chin with his finger and I quickly pushed his hand away."We never had such an agreement," I denied."Should I give you a little reminder of how it happened?" "Why are you doing this? Why are you here?""Isn't it obvious? I'm here to get paid back for helping you. See, I'm like the mythical nine-tailed fox, if I owe you something, I'll make sure I pay back and if you owe me something, I'll still make sure you pay back," I hissed at his stupid exp

Babe's POV The gate leading to the Webster's home was opened wide for me and as I walked in, I was in awe of how beautiful the home was. It was nothing as extravagant as my aunt's home but still, it was beautiful.   I walked up to the front door and pressed the ring again. I tapped my hand against my thigh as I waited for the door to be opened by the voice that answered as soon as I pressed the bell.    "Hi, who are you?" A beautiful woman opened the door, beaming at me. "Hello, I'm Barbara and I'm here to see Hunter. I don't know if I'm in the right place." I replied, introducing myself.    The lady's jaw dropped open and she kept on sta

 Babe's POV"Hunter," I called out as soon as I saw him walking out of the school door during school hours. An hour ago, he had barged into my class, spewing curses just because he failed the assignment. I had actually thought he would go through the assignment, remove some irrelevant things, compile the ones that suit his intelligence quotient before submitting it.  I didn't realize he was that dumb.Or maybe he trusted you that muchmy subconscious said. "Do you have anything to say or you'll keep staring at me?" He growled and I shifted back a little bit from him.

Babe's POVImmediately I left school the next day, I resumed at the pizza place. Pinky had volunteered to drop me off at work after I told her and my aunt about the new development. I was expecting my aunt to actually flip or get mad at me, but she didn't, she just told me to be careful out there. "Hello everyone, I'm Barbara," I said, introducing myself to everyone who has been called out by Hera's Uncle.  "Hi, I'm Stan, these are Cavil and Andrew," A well-built guy introduced himself and pointed to the two guys who looked like a spitting image of the other. I guess they're a twin. "That's also Mama Dee, she's the one in charge of making

Barbara's POVThis morning, I rode to school in Pinky's car. It was the first time in a long time and I was surprised when I saw her waiting for me, outside the house, leaning against her car’s door.  I didn't bother asking her, I just entered the car and she drove off. Neither of us said a word to each other even when we got to school and departed.  After my third class, just before lunch, I barged into Hunter as I was about to enter the cafeteria. I scowled at him before he could say anything. He smiled and pursed his lips.I removed his assignment from my bag and stretched it to him. "Your assignment," he scrutinized me before c
