Next day....Valeria, Ergon and Rita stood in front of his car, it was time for them to leave."Can't believe I'll have to say good bye so soon." Rita lamented. sShe felt like crying because she didn't want her daughter to leave."I'll miss you mom." Valeria said, hugging her mom."I'll miss you too honey." Rita reciprocated.They stayed in each others arms for a while. But Rita was the first to pull away from the hug."Ergon," she called."Yes ma'am.""Please take care of my daughter. I believe I can trust you to do that, and I'm glad you both attend the same school." "You do not have to worry, ma'am, you can trust me to take good care of her." Ergon replied with a smile."Thank you so much, I feel very much at ease hearing this now." "And Valeria?""Yes mom.""Don't eat all the food alone, okay, I packed it for both of you." Rita warned strictly."Come on mom, why did you have to involve him?" Valeria asked. "Stingy!" Ergon uttered."Shut up dummy." Valeria fired.Rita chuckled

"Valeria!." Erica gasped.She quickly rushed to them and she pushed Noah away from Valeria, not minding if he was ma'am Shiella's son."What the fuck!" Noah growled angrily. He was able to hold his stamina, so he didn't fall down."Are you okay, Valeria? Is he trying to hurt you? I won't let that happen." Erica whispered breathlessly. Valeria couldn't believe her eyes, the way Erica reacted shows how much she loves and cares for her."I'm fine Erica, he isn't trying to hurt me, we're cool." Valeria said.Erica was literally breathing heavily. What she saw almost gave her a heart attack."Are you okay?" Noah scoffed, but Erica wasn't even looking his way, her attention was only focused on Valeria."What is he doing in your room, huh?" Erica asked inquisitively."Umm.. actually.." Valeria paused, she didn't even know what to say."We're..he..""We're friends, like close friends." Noah interrupted and Erica furrowed her brows."What! Friends?." She half yelled in disbelief.Valeria wasn

"Why?" Ergon asked."Just don't come close. Leave me alone, Ergon," Valeria said in a glare.Ergon didn't listen but moved closer to her, and placed both his hands at each side of the wall with her head in the middle. Since he was taller than her, he had to crouch down at her level.Valeria quickly turned her face away, she didn't want to look into his eyes."Why are you avoiding my gaze, Valeria?" Ergon asked.Their close proximity affected Valerian. She could feel his hot breath fanning her face, and it made her shiver."Talk to me, what's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly avoiding me?""I'm not avoiding you, Ergon, so please get away from me. I need to use the restroom." She replied, with her face still turned away from him."You're sure you're not avoiding me?""Yes.""Okay then, prove it." .Valeria remembered Noah also said that to her when she had told him she wasn't afraid of him. He had asked her to prove it to him.What's with the brothers and proving her words to them? V

Ergon smiled when Valeria didn't resist him anymore, he deepened the kiss, and held her tightly to himself.Valeria wasn't much of a kisser, so she just followed his lead.The door to Ergon's room pushed open, but since they were both too engrossed in the kiss, they didn't notice that someone was already in.Noah's eyes almost popped out of their sockets when he saw Ergon kissing Valeria. His jaw slowly dropped, he couldn't believe what he was seeing.He stood transfixed, watching both of them kissing each other passionately. His blood was boiling with rage and hate. He bawled his fist, and his fingers dug into his flesh, blood slowly oozed from the cut, but he didn't even realize the pain he was feeling at that moment. As he stared at them, all his hatred was directed towards Valeria. He hated her for choosing his brother over him, he was the most handsome among them, and yet, she chose Ergon. He just couldn't continue watching them, else he might end up doing something stupid to bo

What the fuck just happened?What has my relationship with Ergon got to do with everyone? First it was Erica and now it's Noah. What is wrong with them? She shook her head, then she left.*****Next day....All the maids were in the kitchen preparing breakfast, including Valeria. When she came in, she greeted everyone, including Erica. Everyone replied to her greetings, except Erica. Valeria understood where Erica's anger was coming from, so she decided to keep mute, in order not to anger her even more.She was dressed in her uniform since she'll be going to school soon. She only wanted to help out a bit before leaving."Valeria, please pass me the salt." One of the maids asked. "Okay."Just as she was bringing the salt to the lady, she accidentally bumped into Erica, and the soup Erica was holding in a bowl ended up spilling on her."Oh my goodness!" Valeria gasped, staring at her stained uniform."Are you blind, Valeria? Can't you watch where you're going?" Erica fumed."Look what y
