“ You want me to grant you a favour ? Are you out of your mind ? “ Rex scoffed and I tried to move closer trying to not be intimidated by his eyes but the way he was looking at me would make anyone melt , it had this dominating and seducing stare , I quickly looked away , my eyes facing the ground .His voice echoed slightly in the empty rink,he looked amused , like the whole idea of me asking him for anything was ridiculous. The cold air made my skin prickle, but it wasn’t the temperature that made my heartbeat race — it was him. The way he leaned back, chin tilted slightly, eyes half-lidded but fully aware of every movement I made.“ Please …” I muttered and he burst out laughing, I raised my head and he was having a good laugh, I just watched him laugh and not say a word when he saw that I was quiet , he sucked his tooth and stopped “ I do not want to listen to you ….” He said folding his hands .I held my self back from rolling my eyes and cussing at him but I needed his help an

The only reason Rex had agreed to play the game was to stop Sebastian and me from having the night we had planned. He was punishing me.I turned to look at him. He was still smirking.“I’ll be back…”“Where are you going?” Anastasia asked as I rushed toward the stairs leading to the balcony where he was standing.I didn’t answer. I just ran up the stairs.I needed to give him a piece of my mind.When I reached him, he turned, tilted his head, and scoffed.“Did you run up here because of the announcement?”“Why the sudden change of mind?” I asked, folding my arms as I tried to catch my breath.“What? Isn’t that what you wanted? I’m granting your favor.”“No, you’re not! You’re doing this because you heard Sebastian and me talking about our plans for tonight,” I shot back.His expression hardened.“You are so ungrateful,” he said with a frown.“What exactly should I be grateful for? It’s not like I even care that much about the game!”“Then why did you ask for the favor?” he snapped.I

The universe was being messy with me tonight.It really felt like everything that could go wrong had decided to line up perfectly in one single night just to torture me.Rex and Clara in the same team with us ? That was like pushing me into the lion’s den.Not just any lion’s den.A den where the lions already didn’t like me.“ This is fucked up!” Lustre cried out and Sebastian just scoffed .He folded his arms across his chest, watching Rex carefully like he was trying to read his thoughts.“ Why do I think Rex planned this ? He is grinning from ear to ear ““ Why would he plan this? He doesn’t even want to play the game “ Anastasia replied .Her brows pulled together in confusion as she glanced between the twins.“ He is playing now , isn’t he ? Rex planned this and Clara just wants to be in a team with Rex , I am sure that’s why she is also in our team “Sebastian’s observation made sense but I doubted that Rex would want to be in a team with any of us here especially me.If anythi

Maltilda couldn’t sleep , she kept on turning around her bed and even attempted the few minutes fake sleep but she still couldn’t fall asleep .Her body felt tired but her mind refused to cooperate.Every time she closed her eyes, her thoughts dragged her back to the same person .Roy.“ Why can’t he just leave my head !” She groaned and flipped to the other side of the bed again, pulling the blanket over her shoulder before throwing it away seconds later.She managed to avoid Roy yesterday at school even at meetings when he kept staring at her, she tried her best to avoid his eyes .But she could still feel his gaze.Even when she refused to look at him.It was like his presence filled every room he walked into.The principal who used to be her guardian when she was a student of Raven Academy had called her into her office earlier today because she wanted to discuss the issue at hand with Roy returning and the both of them in the same school.Maltilda had already known what the con

When we got to the art theater, some students were already huddled together in a circle. Their voices were low and anxious, and the moment I pushed through the crowd, my heart dropped.Lustre was lying on the ground.Anastasia knelt beside her, clutching her arm while Sebastian was on the other side, supporting Lustre’s head carefully in his hands. Anastasia’s shoulders were shaking as she cried.Lustre wasn’t moving.“Why isn’t she moving?” Anastasia cried out.I rushed forward immediately while Rex strolled in behind me as if nothing urgent was happening.“Ana…”She rushed into me the moment she saw me, and I wrapped my arms around her.“Hey… it’s okay, it’s okay. She will be fine,” I said softly, patting her head while Anastasia sobbed into my shoulder.“ What if she is putting on a show to distract us ? Where are the other four members of her group ?”Someone said from behind.Sebastian’s head snapped up immediately and he glared at the boy, clearly annoyed.“Are you out of your m
