Katie's POV There was only a day left until the agreed time we wanted to spend on the weekend with Killian in Monaco.It was past dinner hours. I knew I had dinner provided for me but I didn't go downstairs, not with the way Joanna looked at me every time we crossed paths. She was a hawk on a mission and I had to keep my guard up every hour of the day only made me feel more exhausted than ever.The donut in my hands was starting to get hard and drier in my mouth, it made me thirsty but I would rather stay here with the ache of thirst than count on my chances of running into the evil woman.I decided to distract myself by reading over an assignment with hopes I would get invested in it and forget how thirsty I was at the moment, then a knock came on my door.“I am not hungry!” The door handle opened and Jessica popped her head in.“Hate to break it to you but no one genuinely gives a flying fuck if you take some food or not, at least not if it affects their run for office one way or

Katie's POV“I don't know how but you dropped this?” Jessica was holding my phone in her hand stretching it to me. Breathing had never been more difficult than it was in the moment. Her eyes were focused on my face while I was trying my hardest to forget all of the trials that could come from her turning on my phone. It was cruel to say that she already did and I was just wishful thinking.“Are you gonna take it or what?” She snapped, bringing me out of my thoughts. She sounded partly irritated and it made me wonder why she would bring it to me anyway, the usual Jessica would literally walk over it.“Sorry, let's just say I'm kind of confused. You decided to like…do this?” I said, slowly swiping the phone out of her clutch.“It isn't that deep. You fell your phone, I picked it up and brought it because it was on my way. Simple.” She turned around and was about to exit my room when she suddenly stopped and then turned around. “By the way, he agreed. We can go but my advice is that yo

Killian’s POVI decided to eavesdrop. “You know how it—” The feminine voice stopped talking instantly and my heartbeat hung on the silence, waiting for the next words to come out of her mouth.“Someone is at the door…”I immediately fell back as steps drew closer to the door. It swung open with an accusatory force almost like the person behind was so sure that there was someone behind the door too. I straightened my face and made sure it looked as neutral as possible while he was staring at me.“Well, there you are…” I announced, staring Evan in the eyes. The woman was talking with was nowhere in sight, or rather was hiding from being seen, so I wasn't sure trusting her was something I could do.“You were looking for me?” Evan asked, sneakily closing the door behind him without displaying any more images from inside his office. I ignored it and didn't bring it up as a conversation as he led me away from his office. Obviously whoever was inside was somebody he didn't want me to see o

Katie's POV “That is your first pointer, wait for me in the school gymnasium, like the actual gym.”Hypnotism… I thought to myself as I closed the door firmly and walked to the gym. I was sure at this point I was the only student in the building and even if there were more, I didn't think they would be up to a reasonable amount, the peace in the halls made them not so scary anymore.“Katie??” A male voice rang out from a class I passed. My brain said ‘Ryan’ before I was even sure I heard the actual voice. I traced my steps back to the alchemy Lab, for some reason it was still open and a student was inside, not just any student, the star pupil and son of the alpha. He wore the most blue jeans I have ever seen along with a white T and Vans.“What are you still doing here?” He seemed pleasantly surprised and that was where I thought the whole butterfly works would go off in my body and it did. I may be avoiding him due to the unhealthy drama that surrounded our friendship but it still

Katie's POV “I have no idea to be honest, but good news, you have me all to yourself” I waved my hands in the air cheerleading style with an enthusiasm that was too fake to be true. He waved his hands in the air , mirroring my action, “Yay!!”It made me pause, tilting my head to the side as I tried to figure out since when he became sassy.“You know what sass is?” I asked, putting my hand on my waist, really expecting an answer of some sort.“Nah. I made Melissa teach me since I was going to start dealing with you a lot in the future.” He said with a straight tone that now it was hard to tell if that was also a sarcastic comment too or I was just reading too much into everything.“you lot a lot…” I murmured behind him as he turned to the door.“I heard that. Go get your stuff and meet me outside, we don't have forever.” He said to me as he walked out. My eyes stayed shamelessly fixed on his proper round butt that looked good in his blue office pants. I have noticed it before but thi
