Now...
"Quiet, please," said the judge in a loud voice. "This is a courtroom we're in, not a zoo." People kept fighting over the story on the news, in the public, on social media, and even in the courtroom. Victoria Blane's murder was not taken as a joke, or was it all a big joke?
You guys are new here, so let me run it back for you. In a small town called Rivervine, which was abandoned by its citizens due to a tornado that swept them all away and was refounded by its new founding fathers—The Blanes, The Davids, The Loveborns, and The Roses—lived a girl, or as I should say, a sassy bitch who thought she owned the world and everyone in it.
That woman is Victoria Blane. Victoria was presumed dead in the summer of 2023, and her body hadn't been found yet. The story had it that Victoria was killed by her friends. Some say she was killed by her own father, but no one could tell what the true story was until now, but why the rush... let's put you up to speed.
5 Months Until Victoria's Murder...
"I can't believe he won't go out with me," Victoria Blane said as she did her eyebrows. She was the most attractive girl in the school with those black eyes, black hair, that devious look in her eyes, and her sassy voice.
Although no one liked her because of her shitty attitude and her bitchy personality. Everyone wanted to get close to her for fame, and I mean everyone.
"Cool off, Victoria," Isabella David was Victoria's best friend. Some say she was hotter than Victoria, but they don't live long enough to say the story. Isabella was a blonde with blue eyes, she thinks everyone loves her but she is really just respected for her money and fame. Which doesn't make her any better than Victoria, some of us dare to say that she is worse. "He's just a guy."
Victoria grew furious with Isabella's cold-blooded answer. To her, Samuel wasn't just any guy; he was the only guy who rejected her. He had black curly hair and a bearded face, he was filled with tattoos. And to everyone's surprise, he didn't have that big of a name around school, so he could've really used the attention.
" I know he's just a guy," Victoria rolled her eyes, "but still. How can you ignore me?" She added in her sassy voice.
Samuel might be just a random guy at school, but he is no random person. Samuel Riverton was known in his old school for being a murderer. He killed his parents at a young age but the police never found enough evidence to prove he did it. He was quiet and never spoke to anyone, and was said to be a disturbed child, so no one got too close to him.
No one knew about his story other than I, and I mean no one. Who am I, you might ask?
I am the one who killed Victoria Blane, and I am going to tell you why.

"Why aren't you picking up the phone?" Damian Loveborn grabs Victoria's hand as she tries to make her way up the school steps. Damian was Victoria's boyfriend—well, Victoria's ex-boyfriend. Victoria dumped him last night and you are about to know why.
Everyone at school hated when the two of them were together because he is a jock and a bully, and she is his queen. But we all knew who the real alpha was in the relationship. "Because I dumped you?" Vic laughs it off and releases herself from his grip.
"But why," Damian follows her up the stairs and grabs her again, "Why did we even break up?" He adds. Victoria looks around the school entrance and sees that there is no one watching, no one to witness the drama.
Rivervine International School absolutely adores drama, and whenever something happens, you will see the entirety of the school watching. Nothing major happens in the small town of Rivervine, so it's a given that they would be obsessed with the smallest form of action, and these two lovebirds never failed to serve.
"Because I saw you fucking Isabella," Victoria's eyes stare into Damian's soul, "and I won't let that slide, you'll see." She adds her sassy smirk and walks into school. Damian wasn't that big on love & romance anyways.
But now that Victoria saw him... he definitely had to worry. Everyone knows that Damian is living the most perfect life in the most expensive part of town. He has his own beach, his own pool, and his brunette head gets all the attention needed by the finest salons and hair treatments there are in Rivervine.
But I know the truth. Damian has an abusive, alcoholic father who hits him and his mother. His mother who, in fact, ran away with another man and left the country, but it's okay because everyone thinks Miss Loveborn is on a business trip out of town. And guess why Damian is so messed up that Victoria saw him and Isabella doing it?
Because Mr. Loveborn is secretly married to Miss David; which makes Isabella and Damian step-siblings. As you can already tell, there have already been a bunch of reasons why people would want Victoria Blane dead, but before you get to guessing, you've already guessed it wrong.
Will Victoria tell everyone about Damian & Isabella's secret? Or will the queen of Rivervine let it slide?
