but he’s cold-hearted😈)
Episode 38
(Final)

Cali’s Pov:
My lids became too heavy to even blink.
Did….Did I just….
No; what’s going on? I don’t think I understand.
What’s he saying?
His lips pushed to the side a little, forming a
little smirk.
His words resounded in my head like they were
new:
*I want you, Cali. I want you to be mine*
Did I just hear that from him?
I stared at him speechlessly like a bloated goat.
“What do you think?” His soft whispers sent hot
shivers down my spine as his breath touched
my face.
For a while, I was dumbstruck.
“S….S….Sir” was all i could stutter.
No other words could come out from my mouth.
I felt my p*nt become wet. Don’t tell me I was
peeing already.
Finally, he said the most relieving thing I needed
to hear at the moment:
“I’ll give you sometime to think about”.
Gosh! That was the height of it. The most
relieving. I just needed to be away at the
moment.
I took in a big loud gulp and lowered my eyes to
the floor.
Gosh! I could feel my heart racing heavily.
He moved away from me, giving me passage to
the exit. And I bowed before walking out.

Believe it or not, I didn’t sleep throughout the
night. My breath, thoughts and everything kept
ringing Miquel;
Miquel.
Each time I tried to close my eyes, his face
would pop up and interrupt me and I’d start
thinking of him again.
Each time I tried to sleep, his words would come
driving in:
“I know you like me,
And I like you too.
“I want you, Cali.
I want you to be mine”.
Were those for real?
He likes me?? and wants me to stay with him?
Could it be a dream?
I fingered myself to be sure it was reality.
Come on Cali; there’s no way a dream would
last this long.
I kept turning and turning on the bed and just
when the sleep tried taking over, boom!
It was morning already.
“Come on, Cali. You’ve missed classes for four
days now. And its really not good for a starter
like you” Nina said after forcing me awake.
I yawned drowsily and sat up.
Gosh! My eyes were so heavy. I couldn’t believe
Miquel made me stay awake throughout the
night.
“I want you, Cali.
I want you to be mine”.
Holy Molly!!! Those words were something else.
It still felt like a dream to me – the leader of the
White Diãmônds, the King of the institute,
saying those words to me.
How did this even happen in the first place?
How did all these happen? How did I get so
close to him, huh?
“Come on, Cali. I’m not leaving without you”
Nina reminded as she walked into the
bathroom.
Gosh! But at some point, I think she’s right.
I’ve missed classes for days now and its so not
good for a starter like me.
I guess I’d just have to go along with her, no
matter what.
I stood up from the bed and was about going to
brush my teeth when one of the lesbians walked
in.
Oops!
I think it was the one named Chelsea.
She shut me a deadly stare but I tried ignoring
her by walking away but she stopped me.
“You” she called spitefully and I turned to look
at her.
“I wanna talk to you”.
“O…kay. I’m listening” I replied curiously.
“Are you attracted to my girlfriend?” She asked,
folding her hands and I was forced to scoff.
“You mean….your lesbian partner?” I asked with
a ridiculous look.
“Don’t mess with me, girl. You know what I’m
talking about. I’ve seen the way you stare at her,
I’ve seen you two together and all. But I just
wanna warn you; she’s mine and mine alone.
So, back off”.
I stared at her, speechlessly, then busted into
laughter.
I laughed so hard, like I’d never laughed in days.
“Seriously??” I asked.
“Do I look like a pathetic lesbian to you? Like….
I’d leave all the handsome boys in the world just
to get fingered by a lady? Gosh! If you only
knew how you two disgust me”.
I rolled my eyes and tried walking away, but she
pulled me back by the hair.
Whaaaat??
“How dare you?” She snapped and I turned and
pulled her hair as well.
I pulled her close and pushed her back with a
full force, making her hit the wall.
Immediately, the door opened and her partner
came in.
“Chelsea!” She called in an alarming tone and
rushed to help her girlfriend from the floor.
“Next time, you pick someone your size”. I
warned her before going into the bathroom to
join Nina.

Naomi’s Pov:
I stood in front of the door and cross checked
my looks to be sure I was good enough.
Oh my gee!! Miquel was calling for me!
He sent for me.
I touched my hair, my shirt, my shoes.
Everything was perfect,
Yes.
And taking in a deep breath, I knocked on the
door.
“Come in” his sweet masculine voice answered
and I took in a deep breath, pushed the door
open and walked in .
Hmm.
A sweet fragrance welcomed me.
Well, his room was the best in the institute.
I found him in front of his board, working on a
drawing.
“Miquel” I called, brimful of smiles.
“Good morning”
He didn’t say anything and acted like I wasn’t in
the room.
Gosh! This guy was something else and I
wished I could have him.
I wouldn’t mind taking off my clothes this very
instant if he asked me to.
“Um…you sent for me” I tried getting his
attention and that was when he turned to look
at me.
His eyes were so pretty as they stared at me.
“I know what you’re up to” he began.
“I know you’re mapping out plans to kick Cali
out of the institute. But I just wanna warn you;
get it off your mind.
“From now on, if anything happens to her, you’ll
be held responsible. And trust me, you wouldn’t
wanna be found on my watchlist”.
He sighed and turned back to the board.
No; no. This is a dream. There’s no way its real.
I couldn’t even feel my legs anymore.
“Use the door, Naomi” he stated coldly and I felt
tears threatening to drop from my eyes.
I tuned around and left.
How did he get to know of my plans??
Everything was ready and to be executed today.
How did he get to know about it?
No; someone betrayed me.
Its only possible one of my friends had told him
about it. One of them was a traitor.
Noooooooooooooo!

Cali’s Pov:
“Come on, Cali. What is wrong with you? Why
wouldn’t you wanna attend the meeting?”‘ Diane
queried as i sat in front of her and Nina at the
cafeteria during lunch.
“What’s so difficult to understand, huh? I don’t
wanna attend the meeting. Period!” I said with
an eye roll and ate from my cheese.
“Seriously??” She scoffed.
“The meeting is d@mn important and there’s no
way any of us can miss out”.
“Is it because….Miquel would be there with his
guards?” Nina asked and I almost choked.
Gosh! The mention of that name.
Diane stared at me, beady eyed – with the look
like “now, I get”.
“Hold on” she scoffed.
“Is this because of Miquel?”
Grrrr
I itched my neck and looked away.
“Are you avoiding him?”
“Geez” I mumbled.
“Seriously? You’re avoiding him??? What the
heck happened between you two??”
“Nothing, okay? Will you two just leave me
alone? Go for the meeting, when you’re back,
you can give me details” I rolled my eyes as I
stood up with my meal and left.
Talking about Miquel made me so d@mn
nervous.

🌠Somewhere in Korea🌠
Authoress Pov ✍️
They all stood in the throne room, before the
high priest, awaiting his final judgment.
The hall was so quiet, the drop of a pin could be
heard.
Well, it was a sacred moment and no one dared
speak. No one at all, aside the high priest.
“The throne has been empty for way too long
already” he began, his croaky voice putting fear
in some of the minds of the gathered council.
“Its time to crown the King, the king of darkness.
“Lately, the cycle’s been shaking. Something’s
trying to tamper with the darkness in his heart.
So, we need to grip him before we lose him
cause he’s the perfect one for the throne.
“Send 10 coordinates to go in search of him.
Tell them to bring him home” he concluded and
everyone bowed in unison.

Cali’s Pov:
I sat in the middle of Diane and Nina as they
kept talking and talking, not minding if I
contributed or not..
It was late at night and we just sat in front of
the pool, taking some air and feeding our eyes.
My chin was cupped in my palm as I almost
thought out my brains.
Gosh! I pray Miquel doesn’t kill me.
After a while, I stood up.
“Hey; where’re you going?” Diane asked.
“I….I just need to take some air, okay? Don’t
follow me, please” I rolled my eyes and scuttled
away.
Well, reading their thoughts, I don’t think they
had any plans of following me.
I scampered away and took in a deep breath
when I was very far from them
Then, I continued on the usual route.
I walked and swung my arms until I arrived at
his place – in front of his building.
Hmmmm
I stood and stared up at it for a while? Could he
be in?
I took in a deep breath and reached for the wall,
doing what I knew how to do best.
I crawled carefully until I’d gotten to the top and
I peeped slowly from the window.
Sweet room – I’ve missed being in it.
I looked left and right but couldn’t find him.
Where’s he?
Maybe he’s in the kitchen, or in the bathroom?
Or maybe he’s not in the room at all.
Oh! Cali; what am I even doing?
I sighed and was about making a move when
something gripped my attention from the floor.
Whaaaaat???
I found him there!!!
I mean…he was there!!
Standing right there on the floor, staring at me.
Oh my geeeee!!
Cali; what have you done?????
I gasped in fright as I also stared at him. And
slowly, I started climbing down the wall.
Cali!!! How do I face him now??
Oh God!
I felt so nervous as I climbed down the wall. And
close to the floor, I suddenly missed a step and
fell.
“Ouch!!!” I yelped in pain as I broke my leg.
Oh my God!!!!!!
“Argh” I shirked and held the leg.
Oh! Cali. I’m doomed.
Miquel shook his head and came to me on the
floor.
“Strange spider woman, huh?” He muttered and
carried me from the floor.
Whaaaat???
Like….he carried me in his arms and made me
sit on a nearby space while he squatted in front
of me.
“What the hell were you doing on my window?”
He asked as he held the leg.
I felt my lungs become dry as he touched me.
“I….” I panicked.
“I um….I just….”
I shut my lips when I discovered I was out of
words.
I completely had no excuse.
“Why have you been avoiding me?” He threw
another question, as he gradually massaged the
leg.
Huh???
“S…Sir?” I tried to possum.
How did he know I was avoiding him?
He scoffed and looked at the leg.
He held it for a while and let go of it.
And for Holy Molly’s sake……..the pains were
gone!!!!!
Like completely gone!!!
Geez!!!!
I looked and touched the leg like a miracle had
just taken place.
I couldn’t believe this.
Where the hell did this guy come from??
I looked at him and found him staring at me.
“T…Thank you” I said and took in a nervous
gulp afterwards and he just nodded.
“Have you thought about my proposal?” He
asked and I felt jingle bells ringing in my
tummy.
Gosh! His proposal.
I wanna peeeee
I bit my lower lip and stared down at the floor.
And slowly, I nodded.
“You have? And what is your reply?” He asked,
speaking so calmly.
He was still squatting in front of me.
I felt my heart becoming two. This isn’t a dream,
is it?
Miquel’s really asking me to stay with him??
I bit my inner chin to keep me from shaking.
“Um….” I stuttered.
“I….I…actually, I…I’d love to stay with you, Sir….
Miquel” I corrected the name and he smiled.
He freaking smiled!!!!
Immediately, his guards showed up from
behind.
“Boss” they called and he turned slightly to look
at them.
“The directors are waiting” Abel said and I could
divulge the surprised look from their faces.
Oh! Seems they’re having a meeting.
Miquel turned back to me and planted a kiss on
my cheek.
“You should go get your things” he cooed.
“The door is open. I’ll be back soon”.
And he stood up and left with the guards.
I lifted my hands to my cheek which his lips had
touched.
And I screamed.
