The second male lead, his name is Christian Chase Ryder. He is the student council President—the Great Supreme Student Officials, they're the officers who led the Great Mona Academy and each one of them has incredible records. As of now, the current top student of Great Mona is Christian.
He is a very strict ruler, a perfectionist, but he has the right to be one because among all the students here, he is the closest to perfection.
However, despite his serious personality, the only exception for his strict rules is Selene, his first love.
"That's why he's annoying...." I murmured.
On the other hand, my angel is Selene's best friend, Nathalia Vien! The first person who found out that Selene has a crush on Franz!
Just like in the book, naramdaman kong komportable ako sa kaniya. Para saakin kasi, it is not easy for me to be at ease whenever a loud and lively person is around. Pakiramdam ko ay hindi ako makasabay sa energy nila, kaya minsan nagpapanggap akong masaya kahit na ang totoo ay nasasakal ako. But with her, I think I can freely express myself without having to worry about anything.
Master Green and Chase left the room, saktong nakatayo pa ang lahat kaya dali-dali akong lumabas kahit paika-ika akong naglakad.
This is the most anticipated moment in this book, the male lead will finally appear! Wait a moment....Why did I just notice this?! Unti-unting bumabagal ang lakad ko nang maisip ko ang isang bagay. I haven't seen the female lead yet! Bakit si Nathalia lang ang nando'n?! Aren't they supposed to be together all the time, lalo na kapag nasa classroom?
I was in the middle of my thoughts when suddenly, someone said, "Has anyone ever told you that curiosity can kill you?"
Saglit akong napatigil ng marinig ang pamilyar na boses mula sa aking likuran pero nagpatuloy rin agad ako sa paglalakad.
"Here you are. Are you following me?"
It's the guy who helped me in the apartment this morning. Even with my back facing him, I can still imagine his grinning face when he left me in the apartment. That mocking face is really annoying!
Then he replied in a sarcastic tone, "I guess so?"
Hindi ko na pinansin ang pabalang niyang sagot, binalikan ko nalang ang tanong niya kanina, so that he will leave me alone.
"Curiosity, curiosity itself can kill me," I said, the same phrase as what Selene told Samuel at that time.
Samuel.....Come to think of it, I immediately stopped, but when I turned around to face him, I bumped into a broad chest. Nang i-angat ko ang tingin ko'y nakita ko ng malapitan ang mukha niya.
"Samuel Kennard?"
His brows move upward, "What's up with you calling me by my full name?"
Nanlaki ang mga mata ko.
Samuel Kennard, a formidable gang leader, stands as one of the key male leads in Selene's story. Each male lead played a crucial role in her mortal journey, and Samuel was no exception. Known for his prowess in fistfighting, Samuel never laid a hand on Selene, instead playing a protective role in her life. Despite the chaos he sometimes brought to Great Mona Academy, Samuel became indispensable because he was the only one capable of maintaining order among the gangs that had infiltrated the school.
Great Mona Academy, despite its magical nature, was not immune to the influence of gangs. The Dean struggled to control the growing number of students involved in these groups, until Samuel arrived. His words carried weight among the gang members, turning him into an unexpected authority figure. Recognizing this, the Dean tasked Samuel with the responsibility of disciplining the unruly students, knowing that Samuel’s influence was crucial in keeping the academy's peace.
Kaya naman pala, the students look afraid around him, "Ah....."
"Just as I thought, you are here," Nagulat ako ng biglang sumulpot si Franz mula sa likod ni Samuel.
"Franz?"
"Tsk," Samuel looked away, he seemed like the sight of him annoys him.
Just when I was about to ask, we heard a loud thunder coming from outside. I gripped my crutch and led the way. Mabilis naman akong maglakad kahit na pilay ang isa kong paa, they must've seen it kaya hindi nila ako tinulongan.
When we arrived outside the field, we saw many figures standing at the center. The Dean, Master Green, and the GSSO which consist of six officials.
"Pendleton, Kennard, and Ellington, what are you three doing here?!" Master Green caught us.
"You are back, senior!" Suddenly, someone hugged me from behind. I could feel that Franz and Samuel were also surprised.
"You are...." I turned around, keeping my balance steady.
"I am Travis Patrick Taurtin, don't you remember me, senior?" He asked with pouted lips.
Travis?! The GSSO's Vice President, and also one of Selene's male leads! Among the six officials, Travis is the youngest. He's an outstanding junior like Chase. He acquired the second powerful spot in Great Mona for only two years, not just that, he's also from a junior Class 1. With his incredible records in just two years, one of his inspirations is Selene. While everyone else respects him, the person whom he highly respects is the female lead and that's how he got madly in love with her.
Naputol ang pag-uusap ng biglang kumulog ng malakas. Hindi nga man lang umuulan pero sobrang dilim ng kalangitan, pati ang hangin ay sobrang lakas. Kulang nalang ay liparin ako sa lakas ng ihip nito.
"Senior?"
A moment later, kumulog ulit ng malakas. At that exact second, I felt a sudden dizziness. I held tight on my crutch with both of my hands gripping on the holder but it wasn't strong enough to withstand my weight and eventually, nabali ito at bumagsak ako sa sahig.
"Pendleton!"
They all came to surround me, basa ko ang mga bibig nila at tila ilang beses nilang sinubukang tawagin ako pero hindi ko sila marinig. The moment I collapse, all I can hear are the loud foot steps echoing around my ears. Pakiramdam ko'y mababaliw na ako. The man's presence was very strong for me to breathe steadily. Even though he's far, the image of him smirking and walking keeps popping inside my head.
It was the most suffocating moment in my life.
"Night!"
"Mr. Pendleton!"
He is coming.
Vincenzo Drake is coming.
