Liana and I chatted till we got there. It was fun to finally to have a friend. The exterior of the dormitory also looked beautiful. You would know for sure that it was a girl's dorm. I even understood why it was called Daisy Dormitory. The entire front lawn was covered in daises. We got into the dormitory and checked for our dorm numbers.

Hope took flight in my chest. "What?" "There's a party, and some big players are going to be there." "Where?" I asked immediately. "Send me the coordinates." "There are no coordinates." D7 sighed.

I stepped closer, my smirk deepening as her breath hitched. “Anything?” Her throat worked as she swallowed hard, but she nodded. “Yes. Anything.” She repeated.

"Her name is Seraphina. She is a part of the Duval family, an heiress, that is. Their family is so powerful they have the vice president in their pocket."

He wanted the marriage more than I did. Well, that was in the past. All I wanted were funds. So when I found out from another hotel friend that he had received some diamonds, I knew my luck had just gotten better. “This is a silver bullet gun. I know what you are.” I threatened. “One bullet and I’ll send you back to your maker.” “If you shoot me, princess, you will never have the jewel,” he said with a slight smirk.
