Please don't mom comes first, we can give up this school year and I'll just go to school next school year." I said. Dad looked at me with his exhausted eyes."But--"

Alone at the kitchen, I cooked for my own meal, I decided to finish my report until morning and cook breakfast for my siblings.4 AM, I proofread my works and after that, I started my other works.

WE STARTED eating despite the stares of the people around us. I am too anxious because I am not comfortable now. But I tried to calm myself down. I would just embarrass myself if I am too nervous.The boy in front of me right here is just eating, normally. The whole place is too quiet so every move I make I always try to keep silent. I don't wanna cause a commotion, don't wanna be the center of attraction. Though I still am.

"WHERE ARE we going?" I asked him. That was the nth I've asked him where are we headed to. After kissing the back of my hand he just grabs my hand and drags me to his car. I resisted of course, but he's way too strong. Now I would like to ask if he majors in martial arts, though his muscles are not that good though he is hot.Urgh! No time for such thinking. Why am I being shameless like him? I just wanna punch his face right now, but he's driving the car I don't wanna die yet.

I DON'T KNOW what's gotten into me but for the first time on Saturday I woke up at 7 am just to find something good to wear. And I'm not even meeting someone special or attending an event.

CHAPTER 7: JANUARY 2 WITH LUXURYYesterday was my day off because of the New Year. I wasn't in my apartment since I did have a sleepover in Zelica's house. I just got home today.With my eyes tired I went to open my apartment using the keys I have. When I opened the door, I immediately went inside but to my surprise, I stumble upon something. I look at the floor and my eyes widened with what I saw.Multiple paper bags of Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Chanel, and Balenciaga. What?! I don't remember buying these and besides, I cannot even buy these kinds of stuff!I blinked and blinked still cannot believe what I saw. Five Louis Vuitton, 5 Chanel, 6 Gucci, and 5 Balenciaga. What are these? If this is delivery and inside my eyes, the apartment owner must have lent them the key.'These are probably not mine, probably these are for my neighbor.'I imm

THE MAN IN FRONT of me has his eyes widened in shock. He must have not expected that I would say yes, neither do I. He blinked a few times. "R-Really?"I slowly nodded. "Yes, besides I don't have anything to do today. You assured me that you won't do anything to me. Consider this as my payment for the "hotel room" you paid for two weeks ago."His face looks relief as if he was able to release a burden or a concern. For a keen observer like me, I notice things immediately. That includes his facial expression.Gareth chuckled. "The hotel room is no big deal at all. You seem upfront, thank goodness I thought you would be uncomfortable with me."I chuckled at what he said. He's right, I'm straight forward as a ruler. I am quite a sadist only to the people I am comfortable with. The way he acts today made me calm towards him. It was as if he's my friends already, which I really find absurd. Unlike the oth

CHAPTER 5: BOOK STORE VISITWHAT'S SPECIAL today? For everyone, it's special to them, but for me, it's just an ordinary day. I eat, clean, work and sleep. Nothing new other than my age increasing.December 28, my birthday. I got greetings from my friends, only the two of them. My parents called me at dawn, making me wake up earlier than usual. It's my birthday but I am working at the bookstore. The owner, Malfoy, greeted me with a good morning and wished me a happy birthday.Well, enough of my birthday. The store is quiet as usual, there are only a few customers who come every day. Books nowadays are not that taken care of that much. The reason is, we are already advanced, books can be bought and read through our gadgets."Don't you have any plans for today, Edris?" asked Malfoy. Malfoy is four years older than me, as I turned 22 today, he's already 26.I gave him a bitter smile.

WHO WOULD have thought I would be experiencing this kind of thing. I never expected I'll be witnessing such an action scene I have only watched in the movies and read in the books.As soon as the fireworks were set off instead of hearing only the noise coming from the flares, I can also hear gunshots. His right arm is still on my waist, his breathing trailing in my skin, sending a shive

MajestiesMY CLASSES starts at 7 o'clock in the morning so I always wake up early. I was walking on the lobby on my way to my room when I noticed the students looking at their phones non-stop. The news of Prince Nulen arriving in the homeland was big news. It was even trending on different social media overnight! People and their things.She slowly shook her head and went inside her assigned room for the day. For someone studying at a prestigious academy, anyone would think that all are spoiled brats who don't care about studying, they don't need to.Let me explain further, all students here are sons and daughters of high-class families in the empire. Some are Dukes, Marquis, Marchioness, Duchess, Earl, Countess, Count, Viscount, and Baron. Some are nobles from different kingdoms the Solivian empire holds.

PrologueIT WAS early in the morning when I woke up in my dorm. Yesterday night was exhausting due to assignments and different requirements for the finals. I am a college student at Dilian Academy, the most prestigious academy in the whole Solivian Empire.As soon as I get out I spotted my friend and roommate, Jena. She is annoying and there is this aura of hers that I usually hate--her energetic aura. As much as I want to have friends, it would have been good if it is not her. She's very annoying and definitely a nuisance. Sometimes, if I talk to someone over the phone she would continuously ask me who is the person I am talking to.She's a tiresome fellow, isn't she?"Good you are awake, I was wondering how to wake you up. You know it's Saturday but it's boring being alone. Wanna go shopping with me?" she smiled at me, genuinely. I scoffed and pass by her to get some water from the refrigerator.
