Enemies to lovers with a family twist!
Alora Frank has been living her life under the abuse of her mother and father. Hiding secrets and unimaginable pain behind her perfect smile. Except one day she finds her father isn't her father, she had family...
But, it doesn't matter all I say, do or think because the conclusion would always remain that ...I hate him....
"You seem lost," Elias whispers, glancing at our project. I clear my throat," No, just waiting for the bell. Eager to get home" He hums in response, "Good," he says, showing me the final product.
"Yeah," I reply. We walk out after submitting our project, the bell ringing in our ears.
I couldnt shake off the feeling of being watched. I scanned the surroundings, hoping to spot something unusual, but found nothing.
I approach my locker and open it, only to be met with a horrifying sight that makes me scream. A dead rabbit. Blood. So much blood. And a note. With trembling hands, I unfold it
-----
"Shes waking up", someone says. I groan, clutching my head. As I sit up, I see my family, friends, and Elias gathered around me. Confusion clouds my mind for a moment, but then it all comes rushing back. The rabbit, the blood, the note Watch out, darling
"What" I whisper. "Im gonna kill whoever did that", Zena declares, her fists clenched. A chorus of agreement follows.
Awkward
"Alora, dear, do you have any idea who might have done this?" Dad asks, his voice filled with concern. I open my mouth to tell him everything, but the words refuse to come out. What should I tell them? Would they even believe me? What if I lose their respect? Nothing would be the same anymore So, I simply shake my head.
Thats okay, dont worry. No one will harm you, Im here", Dad whispers, pulling me into a comforting hug. One by one, they all leave, except for Elias.
"Are you not leaving?" I ask awkwardly, but he just stares back. You know who did it, dont you? He questions, causing my body to tense up. no, I manage to say. Hmm, he responds.
"Why are you still here?" I question as he takes a seat. His only response is, I want to be here.
Did Dad tell you to guard me or something? I ask, annoyance creeping into my voice. No, he replies.
Can you leave?
No.
Move?
No.
I roll my eyes, frustrated. WHY are you so annoying? I yell.
Someone THREATENED you, and youre not helping by keeping things to YOURSELF! he yells back. Im left speechless
Does that mean you care? I finally ask.
No, ew, he retorts. I laugh, turning to see a small smile on his face.
No one will hurt you, Alora, I promise, he says, his face serious and sincere. For a moment, I believe him. I believe that I wont get hurt anymore, that I could actually live peacefully. But that belief lasts only for a moment, as my mind reminds me that happiness is fleeting, and pain is inevitable
