Trista’s POV “Fabulous,” Lemone said, smacking his knee with his hand. “I’ll add you both to the list for the competition. Best of luck.” He beamed at Liam, but neglected to look my way. “Now, perhaps you could go and fetch us all a latte, Lucian? All this business talk has me craving some caffeine.” Lucian looked severely unimpressed, but he couldn’t refuse his boss. So he sulked out of the apartment, leaving us alone with Liam.

AMELIA "I am losing my mind and I can't help it," I murmured. I prepared for the competition, Lucia, a rival contestant, couldn't resist the opportunity to taunt me. She approached with a smug smirk, her voice dripping with arrogance. "Well, well, Amelia. I see you've managed to stumble your way into this competition once again. Just a stroke of luck, I suppose," Lucia sneered, her tone condescending. I straightened my posture, refusing to let her words dampen my spirits. With a playful smile, I retorted, "Ah, Lucia, always so charming with your compliments. But you know, luck can only take you so far. Perhaps today, it will be my skills that shine."

Noah decl⁠ared dra‍matically from the kitchen coun‍te‍r. “They’re vegetabl‌es,” Liam rep⁠lied⁠ calmly. ‍“They’re suspicious.” Ava nearly chok‌ed trying no‍t to la⁠ugh.

“Because I listened to a whore.” “Oh, shame,” Lee deadpans, voice dripping with mock sympathy. “Didn’t your mamma ever teach you actions have consequences?” He doesn’t pause before twisting the knife deeper — “Or maybe she skipped the lesson on not trusting filter-faced, brain-cell-starved, back-alley Barbies with the IQ of a wet sponge and the loyalty of a mosquito at a blood bank.” Chloe’s nostrils flare like she’s about to breathe fire. Amanda looks utterly lost, like a kid who’s wandered into the wrong movie. Brian, frozen stiff, might as well be a mannequin.

Liana stared at me, dumbfounded for a few seconds, and then imprudently enough, nodded her little head in understanding. "So don't fret over trifling stuff like that, and just aim to remember all my teachings sincerely, okay?" I said in the demeanour of a learnt adult. "I shall heed well to your every lesson, My Liege." She bobbed her head in quite enthusiasm, and I was pretty satisfied with her current attitude towards my teachings. "Alright, to commemorate your successful learning so far, I will teach you another enlightening quote by a very famous personality, repeat after me, 'Opportunities knock on your door only once. But temptation.... that b*tch leans on the damn doorbell.'"

Lyla forced herself to smile at Liam. "It's nice to meet you too", she told him courteously. "I must say my lady, you are looking very radiant tonight. I had heard tales of how the luna of the Lumen pack was a beauty to behold but I didn't believe them until I saw you in person", Liam said in such a charming tone that Lyla couldn't help but be impressed with him.

I state, and it's her turn to grin. "We are trained to answer any question. We receive hundreds of downloads, so we know everything our human harvester might ask," Liamee says, and I see a hopeful look in her blueish-purple eyes. "So I am supposed to ask you questions," I say and she nods eagerly. "Absolutely," she replies and I chuckle. "I will slip into the bathroom and change first," I say and she nods as I pick up the pajamas she made for me. Learning about these strange people will be more interesting if I ask a living being. Books can become dull after a while. Something I know all too well from my childhood.

And unfortunately, Dara noticed. Which meant she kept going. "Although maybe that's a rude thing to say." "You think?" Lumi asked. "I'm terrible at these things." "No," Lumi replied. "I think you're probably very good at them." That actually made Dara laugh, a real laugh. "Okay." "I like her." "Don't." I said, my tone sharp. Both women looked at me, I regretted speaking immediately. Dara grinned, while Lumi looked suspicious. Dangerous combination.

I snapped, stepping into the center of her little circle. The students jumped back as if I had thrown a flashbang into the fountain. Selene flinched, her eyes widening as she tried to pull back her mask of sorrow, but I didn't give her the room to breathe. "You were just projecting your own insecurities because you can't stand that Lumira is the smartest person in any room she walks into," I cut her off, my voice ringing with a frequency that vibrated the very glass in the windows. "You call it desperation? I call it a level of intellect you couldn't achieve if you had a thousand years to study. Lumira isn't a pawn; she's the one moving the pieces. And let's be honest — you're just terrified

I try to assure her, but then Luke comments. "Lila, you should listen to Dr. Lumen. She is an amazing physician." I don't know why his calling her amazing bothers me, but it does. I'm suddenly jealous, and for no reason at all. This is ridiculous. I'm sure it's just that I am still tired and need some time to get my bearings. I feel disoriented. I don't even know how long I've been here. "Dr. Lumen, while I appreciate your wanting the best for me, I want to go home. I will come back if I start to have any additional symptoms.
