Chapter one: Caius Cross on campus
At exactly Eight ante Meridien, Caius arrived at the big black gate of Kingswell University in a simple outfit that was easily ignored— plain white shirt with faded gold stripe, black pants that looked modest and a sneaker on his feet that was probably inheritance or given to him by a kind neighbor because his appearance looks like someone who couldn't afford a good one but at that moment, the young man was standing at the gate of Kingswell— the name ring a bell— the most expensive school in the state.Caius adjusted his bag and walked to meet the security man at the gate. "Good morning, Sir," He greeted politely and the man looked up from his desk in mild surprise. "Morning, how may I be of help to you, young man?" The uniformed security asked, his eyes searching his appearance intently."I need your help directing me to the admission office." He said, keeping his voice polite and the security man was getting more surprised in his expression. "Are you a visitor here?""A new stude
Chapter two: Hey, you
************************"W— who are you?" His voice cracked on the question. His gaze fixed intently on the young man in his from whose appearance looked like he'd walked straight out of the slum into his office. He looked entirely different from the rest of the rich arrogant students but there was something extraordinary about him quite he couldn't place.He just received a call from the school vice Chancellor. It had never happened before. The VC had never given anyone the chance to have his number. Even information is disseminated through his assistance. But he'd just called in today for a strange young man.He stared at his file on the table, his eyes darting frantically through it, looking for something that would prove this young man was something more than he look."Caius Kyoto?" Caius nodded with a faint imperceptible smile. "Transfer student because I needed change in environment. 400level Medical student department," He said, "can we proceed to the registration, Sir?"
Chapter three: In the middle of prey
Lucas Prescott let out a Mockery laughter."Are you fucking kidding me, Huh?" He laughed at Caius, standing up from his seat."Back to your seat Lucas. Now!" Professor Dwayne snapped but Lucas was already up. The class knew him as the biggest bully, one of Thompson Parker's clique.He wore a black jacket and a fashion jean that belonged to an expensive label, a Silver chain caught the light around his neck and scattered it across the room— an expensive arrogant guy. His eyes locked on Caius predatorily yet the corner of his lips had a smirk that was cold amusement. "I give you five seconds to apologize." Caius's voice came loud and clear."This m*therfucker must be kidding me." Lucas repeated, stepping away from his desk. Never had he been challenged in the class. They knew him. He was Thompson's righthand. A rookie calling his bluff on his first day was really insulting."Lucas to your seat! Now! It's an Order!" Professor Dwayne shouted but he knew he couldn't do much. Three years t
Chapter four: Be my girlfriend
Step away now," Caius used the same tone, "or everyone of you will regret it!"The Cafeteria was as silent as a grave yard. No single cutleries clanged, no table screeched. Just dead silence. At exactly five seconds, a spoon clattered to the floor.Instinctively, the crowd parted to the Young woman at the centre. Even she raised her head, the confusion or surprise on her face veiled by the hair scattered over her face. Caius walked through to her, his footsteps barely audible on the ground. He stopped in her front and crouched before her. The entire cafeteria watched in the silence.Disregarding the juice sticking in her hair, he gently threw her hair to the back to see her face. His chest hammered.It was really her.The girl in her dream. His destiny partner sitting in ruin surrounded by predators.Her thick black hair, her small attractive eyes and face that was sketched on his phone. It was her perfect resemblance. The only difference was that she was looking messy— tears filled
Chapter five: Promise of revenge
Caius's statement hung in the air.Arabella stopped. Her heart drummed in her ear.Then, slowly, she turned to him, her hair still scattered over her face."W— what did you just say?" Her voice cracked through the silence.Caius took one step forward to close the long distance that suddenly felt too small."I said," his voice came confidently. "Be my girlfriend." He repeated.Silence stretched. And again it felt as though Arabella had Heard him wrongly.She was called dirty Arabella, male students in the school stay away from her because she was the poorest student on the campus— scholarship got her in, her fellow genders dispise her, said she was out of their league. But in the actual sense— they were only bittered because she was brilliant, but in a school like Kingswell, brain is like filth when you have an empty pocket."Why..why did you say that?" She toned. "If you want to bully— just do it. Spill me milk, let me eat crumb, slap me in the face..""I am not here to do any of tha
Chapter six: Imperial Table
********************Dr. Chad was already inside the Premium ward, his hand moving with the clinical precision of someone who had done this before— gloves on, stethoscope pressing on Arabella's chest to listen to heart beat that was there but consciousness dragging it into darkness that medical call Coma."Past trace of head injury untreated," His voice was sharp, accurate. "It's pulling her into coma." Concern etched over Caius's face. "Will she survive?" "You know better, Master Cross. That she will." Caius was already moving to the bed where Arabella laid under white sheet. "She's not falling into whatever bullshit darkness." Dr. Chad stepped back, watching, learning.Caius moved fast. Oxygen mask, Endotracheal tube slammed into that ventilator With training that'd become muscle memory, cardiac Monitor beeping in repeated rhythm that suggested that patient was very much alive.After Five minutes, Arabella's eyes fluttered open to the white ceiling that didn't belong to the ap
Chapter Seven: The blue blood clique
Meanwhile at Kingswell university, inside an Empty Classroom, smoke curled into the air like smoke from sacrifice.At the centre of the room, a figure silhouetted in the wafting smoke. Thompson Parker.He sat at the centre of the room on an expensive furniture placed at the middle of the room like a throne, his shift unbuttoned, his legs crossed like the entire school belonged to him— and of course it did.Three other students looking rugged and rich stood around him.This group belonged to Thompson Parker and he called it— THE BLUE BLOOD. A Clique of five richest students in the school. They're feared across the school and no one dare cross their path because of their past atrocious acts that put fear in everyone's heart. Professor stay off their lane, students walked another path they take. Kingswell contained influential students but the BLUE BLOOD are in their own league. A terrifying group of five.Thompson waved at one of them. He stepped forward and leaned closer."Get me a
Chapter eight: The plan to strip
"What the heck?"Lucas's eyes widened in shock.Thompson loomed over him like a shadow, his voice menacing."You got beaten by a nobody and ran back here like a coward? Are you crazy?!" His voice sent shrill into their spine— commanding, loud and angry.No one breathed.Even when they belonged to the same group, Thompson remains the boss and they know better arguing with him when he's enraged."I..he broke my finger.." Lucas's voice cracked."Shut the fuck up you idiot!" Thompson hissed. His finger snapped into the air. "Your ass is being mocked out there in front of two hundred students because you acted pathetic in front of one nobody. One man got you on your knee and you came back here without his finger on my table. Are you mad!"Lucas trembled perceptibly."I—i am sorry..I'm sorry.." His voice cracked. Thompson walked to the window, still boiling in rage. He took a long drag of smoke, allowed it stay for some seconds before puffing it out.The hall was silent behind him. The roo
Chapter nine: Encounter at the table
The Meal course arrived after ten minutes in lidded silver trays carried in by four staffs walking in with professional ease. Patron's steal glances at them, commenting in hushed tone.The tray's were gently placed on the table one after the other along with different labels of drinks that immediately made Arabella gasped, her voice catching on it. Her eyes widened on the spread of dishes in her front.Ceramic plates arrived immediately too with cutleries only used in this kind of settings."Are you ready, Sir, Ma?" The waitress glanced between them. "I'll be offering the table service personally."Caius glanced across to Arabella who was still in shock, her wide eyes counting down from one lidded trays on the table and drinks that stood together like trophies at the side.What the heck?"Please go ahead." Caius said seeing she was still processing everything. He smiled faintly."Alright. It's an honour to serve you, Sir, Ma." The waitress moved, flipping one lid open with ease. Stea
Chapter ten: The scuffle on the table
Caius looked at her intently."What was that? An accusation? Or Is this a police station where you report your stolen stuff." His voice was quiet and firm."Who the heck are you to speak to me like that?" Diane's voice cracked through the air like a gunshot making heads turned immediately."You're loud, young woman," Caius simply said, "you're shouting on my girlfriend." Diane tossed her hair to the back, diamond necklace catching the illuminants on her neck. She let out a laughter that echoed off the roof like shattering glass."Girlfriend? Huh? Perfect. Just perfect.." She spun to Arabella who was panicking across the table, muttering something no one heard that could be a plea."So this is what you do, Huh? You hook up with some trash and tell them to spit nonsense at me?"Caius's inside boiled but he didn't move. His expression was perfectly impossibly composed."Diane..no.. that's not true. Caius is my boyfriend. Yes. But were were just hanging out.." "Hanging out?" Diane's l
