Wendy's POV. Taking slow strides, he halted a few feet away from me, his Cologne teasing my senses and body, he towered over me despite not being so close to me, his question had gotten me on high alert and it stinks that I didn't know how to answer him. I was already very tired which makes it difficult for me to think straight but having him so close to me was turning the little thinking capability I have left into muss. He was still calling me a princess, he knows my heritage so why the fuck does he keep asking? Why can't he just accept the fact that he knows and leave me alone? I'm no longer the princess of the Havon kingdom, I was dethroned and banished from the kingdom, I'm pretty sure he knows that but it looks like he wants me to agree to it and that's what I'll not do. "Answer me, princess, what kind of punishment should I award you?" He asked again, his deep masculine voice teasing my sanities."I'm sorry, it was... It really wasn't my fault." I tried to clarify but his
Wendy's POV. "Idiot, imp, pervert!" I cussed angrily as I rode the elevator down, my heart seemed to be contracting because of the intense anger I was feeling. I blinked back the tears that wanted to fall off my eyes muttering, "I shall not cry for that idiot, I would not and I fucking wouldn't." I tried to keep the tears on but they fell freely and a bitter smile spread across my face as I immediately wiped the silly tears away from my face. "He won't break me, he can't break me." I kept assuring myself despite the amount of hurt and pain I was feeling inside, it stunk that I couldn't do anything to avoid my pain. ‘Just tell him you are the princess, tell him what he wants to hear, tell him what he wants to hear, Wendy.’ A tiny inner voice squawked in my head and I balled my hands into fists, my breath becoming harsh. "Never! I would not make such a mistake, I never will." I huffed and took in a deep breath to calm down as I neared my department floor.The elevator door dinged
Wendy's POV. "Hurry up May, I don't want to miss the fucking class, you've wasted enough time!" I shouted with gritted teeth, trying hard not to scream too loud. I know we're having the class in the next thirty minutes but I want to be in class, I just want to be there, I can't afford to miss the psycho class by any tiny chance. My life's already filled with so much stress, that I would not allow him to add more stress to it. Hell no! "I'm coming, don't stress it," May said with a chuckle, turned to wink at me, and went back to talking with that annoying school playboy.I don't know why May's taste in men is so lame... Just like me. Not Wendy of now, the Wendy of before.Yeah, I have a lame taste when it comes to men but after my wrecking experience, I developed a tastelessness that I don't think would ever go away. When it comes to men, I do not have any interest nor any expectation from any. "May! I'm gonna leave you for real." I huffed and she and the boy turned around this ti
Wendy's POV. Picking up the bouquet, he looked at it with a blank expression before his eyes trailed to look at me. It was at such a time I wished the floor would just open up and gobble me up because I didn't know what to do or what to say.Going back in time now would be the best, why can't they just create a perfect time-traveling watch, a watch that I can just tap and go back in time? The two girls that brought the disaster immediately disappeared from sight, the only person still standing with me was May but I'm sure she was feeling dead scared as I was. I don't even know if it was my heartbeat or hers that I was hearing. With each step he took, my heartbeat accelerated. "I'm sorry sir, it was a pure accident, I have no intention whatsoever to haul it at you, please pardon me," I said quickly as he stood proudly in front of me, his eyes piercing into mine and it took every ounce of my courage not to drop on the floor and start begging because I had no idea the kind of punishm
Wendy's POV. "Alright, I think that's good enough but next time, show all your steps. If you make mistakes like this in exams or tests, I will not give you your full mark." Professor George's voice rang in the class.His method of teaching is childish but it's very admirable, not all professors would give the marker to students to solve math questions."Thank you, I'll take that into consideration." Aliyah, the most brilliant and beautiful girl in class, said with a bright smile and I heard May scoffing beside me.Aliyah is the perfect description of beauty with brains and to top it all, she's super-wealthy, she's the heir to her family empire, and OMG! She's fucking arrogant and prideful. I have no business with her though, it's May. I can bet that Aliyah is topping the list of people May despise with everything in her. Aliyah lives like she owns the world and technically, she does, she has it all. I almost had a tiff with her once but I had kindly withdrawn because she's a mad bi
Some Weeks Later. Wendy's POV."Oh Lord! Wendy, the expedition is the talk of the group, you have to be online!"I looked at the young woman smiling broadly on her phone."You should be packing May, not chatting, this isn't done, Aunt Linda would be here any minute and God help you if you haven't folded those clothes," I warned and for the first time in minutes, she tore her gaze from the phone to look at me, "Just help me, I promise, I'll pay you. Everyone's buzzing about the trip. It's a great trip, Wendy, three departments are going on a trip together for two weeks!" She screeched excitedly and went back to tapping her phone furiously. I let out a sigh and dragged my tired legs to where her clothes were scattered and began to help her fold. Packing for a two-week expedition felt like preparing for a space mission, and the chaos in our room described that perfectly. I have nothing much to pack, it was all May and May, she had turned the room inside out looking for the perfect o
Wendy's POV. "Wow, isn't this beautiful!" May exclaimed as we stepped out of the hotel we had lodged when we arrived yesterday.We had arrived at the hotel late because of some problems best known to the management. Students were brought to the hotel by different means of transportation, those who were privileged enough took flight upon the announcement of the delay while those who weren't that privileged had to wait for the school mode of transportation. Arriving at the hotel late at midnight didn't give us the privilege to admire the beautiful place, I could bet most sleep after getting into the comfort of their room. "It's truly beautiful May." I agreed with her, the place is truly beautiful no doubt, I had no idea the school could afford such a posh hotel. I was surprised when we got a good room, I was a bit suspicious about everything, the school didn't take a dime from us and they also provided us with everything we needed... I think there's more going on but I really don't c
Wendy's POV. "Wendy!" May called, shaking me lightly but I didn't reply to her, the fear in me was too much. Thinking about different possibilities of how things can go extremely wrong made fear cloud my heart."Wendy!!" May called, shaking me violently this time and I snapped out of whatever trance I was in."Stop shaking me like that," I said weakly and slapped her hands away from my shoulders, my eyes scanning the little crowd May's shout had gathered.Great. Hope you can see this Professor George, thank you for ruining my first day on the expedition."Are you alright, Wendy?" May asked, her eyes filled with concern and I just sighed before I nodded affirmative slowly. "Then why the hell were you looking like shits? It's just our first day here, you don't have to fret, I know you're nervous but keep it cool, everything will be alright, I promise." May assured me with a smile and I just smiled, "Thank you, May, thank you all," I muttered, summoning courage as I stood up so no on
