Wendy's POV. The door of the car opened and someone stepped out, straining my eyes. I tried to figure out who the person was but his face wasn't visible to my eyes. "Hello, guys." The figure said and began to head towards us, the voice sounded familiar and I was trying to figure it out in my brain but my brain wasn't cooperating."Stanley." Anny's voice immediately made my brain recall and I stared at the figure in awe. How the fuck did Stanley get here? "Who the fuck are you?" The leader of the group asked, standing proud and dangerous.Anny clung to me tighter, her fingers were scraping my skin and it hurt but I chose to ignore it. I understand how scared she must be, I was once in her position."I'm nobody you wish to know and I don't wish to know you either, how about we settle this amicably without any form of violence?" He asked and I creased my brows, wondering what Stanley was up to, Stanley wasn't the type to go violent, he's one of the calmest men in my class and the who
Wendy's POV. "Just two more days until submission girl, I'm so excited and nervous at the same time," Anny said excitedly and I looked at her with a smile, she was excited about the whole project and I was too. I've been working on mine, seeking help from lecturers and professors... Well, except for Professor George, I haven't seen him for the last two days and I dare not call or ask about him. Things have been going smoothly in the expedition, we have lots of seminars and everything has been calm. Just as May had predicted, not all students were interested in the program, some only came here for the fun of it and they're having it to the fullest, the management wasn't saying anything about it, we're adults after all, we're responsible for our own decisions. "Hey baby, how are you doing?" I heard May's excited voice and I looked away from my pad to look at her; she was dressed in volleyball shorts and an armless top, "You're looking hot May." Anny complimented her and I supported
Wendy's POV. "And the first fifty students that would be battling to be among the first five in the competition from the business administrative class are..." My heart leaped when I heard this and I tried my very best to look relaxed and composed despite the nervousness I was feeling deep within. The man at the podium began to mention names and I was sincerely happy for Anny when her name was mentioned. We had submitted our project and the team had selected the first fifty. I was sincerely praying to be among the first fifty. If I'm not, I'd have to join the fun squad and have all the fun I could till the expedition is over. My phone buzzed but I ignored it, I'm too focused on the man mentioning names to care about anything, who ever the person was should just go to hell cause I'm fucking tensed right now. "Wendy, your phone, it's buzzing, maybe it's urgent." May notified me by tapping me on my shoulder and I just scoffed. I don't care how urgent it was, I'm not replying to anyth
Wendy's POV. "How are you feeling now, is it hurting you? I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to startle you like that." He said quickly, brought out his white handkerchief, and used it to dab the little blood that was still coming out of my finger. His action had surprised me, and it's fucking still surprising me, this man in front of me is anything but caring, he had shown me that he doesn't like me, he made me feel it but what was wrong with him now, why is he behaving so weird, extremely weird. "Do you want me to take you to the hospital?" He asked again when I wasn't replying to him. Why the hell would he take me to the hospital for such a minor injury?! Snatching my wrapped finger from him, I looked at him in awe then stared at my hand that he wrapped his handkerchief around. "What is wrong with you?" I asked, still finding it hard to believe."You're hurt." He said and moved closer to me but I moved back almost immediately, not wanting to be so close to him, I felt some kind of f
Wendy's POV. "Where are you going so late in the evening Wendy?" May asked as I wore my big sweater."Just going for some fresh air, I'm feeling restless tonight, unable to sleep." I lied and she just sighed, "Want me to come along" She asked with a yawn and I just chuckled,"You're already looking so tired honey, just rest, I'll be back soon, I just need to walk around and think of what to do for the next project, I'm super excited that I got selected, it's good that I was out, had I been there, I'll have scream the building down with happiness," I muttered and May giggled before she relaxed her head on the bed. "Yeah, I was glad you went to the restroom, you looked like shit during the announcement." She mumbled and I knew it would be a matter of time before she would start mumbling rubbish about different topics.That's how May is. Whenever there's sleep deep in her body, she begins to say all sorts of nonsense and I always find it amusing."You have your phone with you huh?" Sh
Wendy's POV. “Give me a reason why I should trust a blood that once betrayed me and my kin.” He added with his gaze boring into mine and I just sighed, trying not to break the locked eyes. "I'm not asking you to trust me, I'm just asking for a simple promise, a harmless promise that would cause you no harm at all." I clarified and he just smiled; a smile that didn't reach his eyes."You know you're not in any condition to ask anything from me right?" He asked and I nodded in affirmation, trying hard not to argue with him, arguing with him would only lead to more banter and that's what I didn't want, I just wanna end this and focus on something that really required my energy. "If your promise is gonna cause me any inconvenience or demand something big from me, I would not make it, is that clear?" He asked and I nodded in affirmation again."Use your words, dammit!" He sneered and I just sighed, he has a problem with me talking and he has a problem when I am not talking. Bloody male
Wendy's POV. Without thinking, I asked, "Have you ever liked me?"He stopped laughing immediately and looked at me with a scowl. Opsie, wrong question."I'm sorry, I didn't intend to ask you that, it just came out," I said with a nervous laugh, his cold eyes staring at me and I smiled, a smile that reeked of nothing but nervousness."We're not talking about me here, princess, we're talking about you, I need answers from you and not the other way round, you ain't permitted to ask me questions except I permit you to, do you understand that, princess Wendy?" He asked and I just nodded,"You know I'm no longer a princess right?" I asked and he just scoffed."You're always a princess, the blood is in you." He said calmly and an unknown smile spread across my face despite trying not to smile."Now that's your genuine smile." He commented and I was quick to snap out of the stupid trance I was in."I'm sorry for sending you flowers, I never knew you didn't like them and also, the chocolates
Wendy's POV. "Professor George?" I heard a voice call and I shivered in fear, my arms around his body tightened and I felt my heart thudding furiously against my rib cage, this is bad, this is so bad. "What can I do for you girls?" He asked, his hand patting my back gently. I feel he's telling me to calm down but I can't calm down, especially not when my course mate who loathes me is standing a few feet away from me. If they catch me now, I'll be done for, my school life would be made miserable if I am not suspended. How did I get into this place again?!"Um, hi... We're sorry, we had no idea you were with someone, we just saw you coming here and decided to come to say hi and..." I heard Aaliyah stuttering and my condition didn't give me the opportunity to laugh, that's the first time I've heard Aliyah stuttering. She's always the Ms. Perfect woman, she's good at everything but stuttering now. Well... I don't blame her a bit, I'll be stuttering too if I were in her shoes, the prof
