ANNALISE’S POV.Landon flashed me a smirk as wide as the gulf of Mexico, his arms crossed on his chest. As I stepped further into the room, his smirk slowly disappeared and his eyes traveled the length and breadth of my body, remaining unreadable the entire time. I couldn’t tell if he was scanning me for injuries or just taking his time to look at my body for the fun of it. I pulled Logan’s jacket closer against my skin in self-consciousness.“How did you get in here? What do you want?” I asked in quick succession, gently shutting the door behind me.He kept silent for a while, his eyes fixed squarely on mine, before he let out a sigh, rose to his feet and covered the distance between us with very long strides. He gently cupped my face in his palms and bored through my eyes with those green orbs of drowning oceans of his.“Glad you’re not hurt,” he finally said. “Didn’t wanna make the scene messier by showing up to the face of between my brothers,” he explained, his tone sharp with a

ANNALISE’S POVI had very little sleep through the night, my thoughts constantly drifting to the Wayne brothers. Sitting at the center of the picture was Logan, his blue eyes piercing through my consciousness in a perpetual state that made my eyes shoot wide open every time I thought about him—because it almost always felt like he was literally sitting across from me in the room. My mind was still feeling with the same questions. Why did he come to my aid? Why did he stand up for me? The harder I thought about it, the fewer answers I got.Sometime during the night, I heard Marie creep into the room quietly and moments later, she came over to my corner to see if I was asleep while she reported to someone over the phone. Who was she working with?I had no doubts that she might have tipped Madame Constance off falsely to get me in trouble. For moments after Landon left my room the previous night, I nursed the weight of the question ‘what if?’. What if Madame Constance had spotted his foo

ANNALISE’S POV.Somehow, he’d snuck past the extra security guards Madame Constance had put in place to ‘keep delinquent boys from getting any funny ideas’ as aptly announced in the assembly ground the day after her surprise visit to my room. It had to be him—Logan. I had no idea what his handwriting looked like, but something about the ominous feeling swirling in my gut back at the library made me certain it was him.I held the note in one hand like it was a enchanted charm, while I pinched the rose by its stem with the other. I looked down at my arms and spotted the fat rows of goosebumps lining the length of my skin as far as the eyes could see. Why did he always manage to have this effect on me?I heard the sound of the door opening and in an instant, I’d hidden both items inside my dresser drawer. I turned around to face Marie, an awkward silence flying between us. She broke eye contact first and entered further into the room. We said nothing to each other—not like we had anythin

LANDON’S POVI slipped out of sight, peeking from behind the wall as I watched her quietly shut the door behind her and pat down her skirt before dashing away in the opposite direction of the hallway.“What are you up to now, Miranda?” I mused aloud.I turned around to be on my way, my mind still working overtime to figure out Miranda’s mission with Jeff. I could almost take a wild guess what they’d been doing inside that office —the only question was why?Why would Miranda decide to cheat on my brother with a character as ridiculous as Jeff?I tried to push it all out of my mind, deciding that I had bigger fish to fry with Anna after all. I had to see her. I couldn’t bear the thought of having her angry with me.‘Since when did you start caring this much?' I wondered to myself in a fit of self-loathing. ‘Since you met Annalise Leen’, I equally answered in a moment of truth.I let my legs lead me to the garden just behind the girl’s dormitory. I traced the familiar path to the gazebo

ANNALISE’S POVI looked at the picture, my eyes wide open in shock. My mind reeled with thoughts —the implications of the images I was staring at. Whoever had taken them meant to do a lot of damage—a world of damage.I looked up at Landon, my eyes squinting in anger as I turned the phone screen to face him.“Did you do this?” I demanded coldly.“Relax. I think we look cute together in that photo though,” he winked with a playful shrug.I flashed him a wicked glare and he fell back in line immediately.“Do you have any idea what this means for me? Do you always have to be selfish every time?” I vented my anger, my free hand balling into a fist by my side.“Calm down, Anna. Don’t make this look like it’s my fault. I’m a victim as well…” Landon tried to reason.“Of course you’re a victim! Yeah. You’ll get sent home for gross misconduct after facing a disciplinary committee filled with people who are convinced that you’re on an expired favor and don’t belong here!” Landon was stunned in
