JORDAN I couldn't help but smirk as I watched Nora frantically try to put her phone away. She thought she was being so sly, but I had seen the flash from her camera. I snatched the phone from her hand and stared at the image on the screen. It was a photo of me, taken without my consent. My face darkened, but I kept my expression neutral. I handed the phone back to her, my gaze steely. "You shouldn't take photos of people without their permission, it’s a violation of privacy." Was all I said even though I so much would like to delete it, I didn’t. That would be the first photo of me I’ve ever seen; the exact reason I shouldn’t have left it off the hook.I could tell Nora was about to protest, but before she could say a word, I got up and started to walk out of the classroom. I didn't want to hear any of her excuses. I knew what she had done was wrong, and I didn't need to hear her try to defend herself. I put my hand in my jacket pocket, my heart humming silently from the adrenalin

NORAI walked out of the classroom immediately the class came to an end, my strides as confident as ever. Meanwhile Natalie kept on grinning from ear to ear behind me, which had me rolling my eyes almost every second. That was the first time I shoved Cassidy back to her lane, in the presence of everyone so I guess, it has surprised everyone also, not only Natalie.“Did you see the size of her eyes? They were so widened by shock to the size of a saucer pan.” She continued to buttress as we walked out of the gate. “Can we please get something to munch on? Or am I the only exhausted one here?” I threw her a questioning brow and she pointed towards the opposite direction where I behold a small restaurant. Never knew that was there.“I must say, you have such a great sight.”As I stepped into the small restaurant with her, I'm immediately hit by the smell of delicious food. It's making my mouth water, and I can't wait to order something to eat. The waiter greeted us with a friendly smil

NORAJust as I was about to hit the ice, I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist. I was pulled back to my feet, my thumping heart a living testimony of how scared I was.I turned to see Jordan's face, and I noticed the glint in his eyes. He wasn't concerned, he was teasing me. I pushed him away, trying to regain my composure. "Thanks for the assist." I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "Anytime." he replied, a grin spreading across his face. I rolled my eyes and turned to skate away, determined to put that moment behind me.I skated over to where my father was standing, a smile breaking out on my face. He opened his arms and pulled me into a tight hug. "You did it." he said, pride shining in his eyes. I smiled up at him, knowing how much this meant to him. I looked over his shoulder, trying to avoid looking at Jordan. The last thing I wanted was to see the smug look on his face so I focused on my father instead.I headed to the dressing room, eager to get out of my d

NORAI watched as Lucan revved the engine, his fingers gripping the steering wheel with determination. He gave me a quick smile, his eyes flashing with excitement. And then, we were off, speeding down the track, the wind whipping through my hair. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, and I tried to focus on the road ahead, my eyes fixed on the finish line. But in the corner of my eye, I could see Jordan’s car, keeping pace with Lucan’s. We were in it together, and I felt a surge of adrenaline.I turned to Lucan, unable to hide the nervousness in my voice. "Can we win this?" I asked, my tone hesitant. Lucan didn't look at me, his eyes focused on the road ahead. But he nodded, his jaw set with determination. I tried to draw strength from his confidence, but my eyes were drawn to the other car on the track, the car driven by Jordan. It was pulling ahead, and I felt a sinking feeling in my stomach. But then, Lucan did something unexpected. He shifted gears, his foot pressing dow

NORAI stood there, frozen in place, as I watched Jordan approach the guy who had been flirting with me. I don’t know how he managed to know what was going on here but here he is anyway, and I couldn't believe what was happening. When Jordan spoke to the guy in that low, threatening voice, I can subconsciously sense terrifying terror gathering across the guy's spine. And when the guy turned and fled without a word, I was left feeling both relieved and unsettled. What had just happened? Why had Jordan come to my defense like that? And why did his actions make me feel so conflicted?I opened my mouth to speak, but before I could utter a word, Jordan turned and walked away. I stood there, rooted to the spot, watching as he disappeared around the corner. And then, without thinking, I found myself following him. He stopped by his motorcycle, swinging his leg over the seat. I hesitated, unsure what to do. But then he patted the seat next to him, and something inside me compelled me to cl
