Olympia's POV

"Let's go" Lindy snapped and dragged me along with her. I wiped the thought away, I was in no mood to take a painkiller on someone's headache.

Soon we arrived at the cafeteria and made our order, we ordered for Seaspringe and baked potatoes. We later found a seat and made ourselves comfortable.

I continued gazing at my food as I had no appetite of eating, Lindy seemed to have noticed my mood because she asked. "Oly, why do you look pale?"

I took in a heave of breath before answering her, "I don't look pale, I'm fine"

"No you're not. You have a semblance of a person who earned a hot slap this morning" she teased and chuckled alone

"Seriously?" I muttered

"I didn't mean that but what's the reason behind your moping mood?" she asked with concern marring her face. I rolled my eyes feeling the urge to tell her.

"Fine but after you tell me why you weren't happy to see my roommate Piper" I requested and she hesitated before giving me a nod.

As she was about opening her mouth, beautiful-handsome model walked into the cafeteria with his three guards. This is the third time I'm seeing him on black, seems like all through black is he's favorite color.

As I was wondering why someone would have black as his best color, someone pranced into the cafeteria too behind him. It was the crazy moron..... Scarlett.

I rolled my eyes upon seeing her, she tried to use her powers on me to intimidate me, not like I even care. Everyone in the cafeteria went dead silent as we all stood up to acknowledge the fact that the King is here.

One of his guards gestured us to sit down and we did. Just then I began hearing the thoughts of some students.

"OMG he's so damn handsome"

"Just wish he could spare me a glimpse"

"His aura is terrifically exciting"

"Oh Scarlett is really lucky"

I rolled my eyes and blocked all their thoughts in my head. They're all disgusting with their dirty minds. I watched as he found an empty table and sat there while his guards went to the counter area to place their orders perhaps.

Scarlett went to sit with the King but he gestured her to sit elsewhere, she seemed to have wince before adhering to the King. I stifled my laugh and accidentally my eyes locked with his.

I couldn't look elsewhere as my eyes were glued with his.

"Olympia stop looking. You wouldn't like to get into another trouble" Lindy warned and my eyes darted to her in a shy smile. I looked back at the king to notice he wasn't glancing at me again.

His guards came back with their foods and sat elsewhere. Why isn't he eating as well?, I wondered. Suddenly he began gazing at me again and I just couldn't look away.

His gaze sent chills down my spine as goosebumps covered my body in shiver. I immediately looked elsewhere and he did the same. So he looked myself twice, I found myself blushing hard.

Before I could continue eating, a girl's clothes was set on fire. My eyes dilated in horror but other students were all calm and quiet. Why are they not doing anything? She's going to burn to death.

Just then the girl began shouting and everyone in the cafeteria rippled with noise as they started running out of the cafeteria.

"Olympia let's go" Lindy shouted

"Why?!" my face was laced with confusion

"The girl chewed gum in front of King Landon, she disrespected him" Lindy said and I scoffed in surprise. Just because of an ordinary gum?

I shook my hands away from her grip, stamping back to the scene. The so called King was still sitting there like nothing's happening. How can someone be so cruel?!

I spotted his guards helping Scarlett as they exited from the cafeteria. I stood right in front of the girl who was screaming for help, the King gave me a sideway glance as he furrowed his eyebrows. He didn't try to stop me so I went ahead.

I lifted up my both hands, gathering as much air as I could and I ejected it at the girl and the fire quenched with the girl smacking to the floor. The students in the cafeteria and the ones left inside were stunned by my braveness.

I wasn't going to just stand there and watch as the poor girl burns to aches. The girl panted in relief and giving me a thankful gesture. I forgot that the King was still sitting there as I smiled at her.

One of the King's guards came back and dragged the girl away. Suddenly I felt a hand get a grip of my arms and began dragging me out of the cafeteria with all the students gazing at me in horror.

We got outside the cafeteria and I turned to see Lindy looking very angry. "Olympia do you want to kill yourself?" she asked and I could discern dread in her eyes.

Why is she so scared instead of being happy that I saved that poor girl's life. "C'mon let's get out of here" she suggested and dragged me along with her.

I've automatically become a dog to Lindy!

Scarlett's POV

"How dare she!?" I fumed as I swirled around

"She even quenched the fire and saved the girl" Lilly added more fuel to the already burning flames.

I cogitated for a while before coming up with a plan, "Excuse me" I said to Lilly and Madison then I made my way to her institute, I will surely teach that bitch a lesson.

I finally spotted her and that other girl that saved her the other time but not this time.

"Hey you!" I rasped as I gained both their attentions, the other girl flinched but the damn Olympia seemed calm.

Olympia's POV

"Hey you!" a voice rasped gaining out attention and Lindy flinched to see it was the crazy moron Scarlett.

"What do you want from me?" I asked with repulsion sounding loudly in my voice.

"How dare you use your power on Landon?" she enquired and I furrowed my eyebrows. I only saved that poor girl I didn't use my powers on the King. I almost bust out laughing.

Before I could say anything a guy, I mean one of the King's guard said something to Scarlett and I spotted a smile being formed on her lips.

"I'm not yet done with you" she hissed and left with the guard.

"She makes me feel repugnant no doubts" I rolled my eyes and Lindy frowned

"Hey girl, you need to avoid these set of Shiverals especially Landon if you really want to survive in this institute" she warned and something popped into my head, something abstract.

"Ahem..Lindy could you tell me more about this institution and their enemies" I requested and she raised her eyebrows at me with a shrug.

"Anneliese! Anneliese!" I yelled severally and she finally approached me with quick steps.

"Where's mom and dad?" I enquired

"They travelled" she answered in fear and a smile tugs at my lips

"Follow me!" I ordered evilly and she winced in fear. We entered my room and I opened another door with her eyes widening in shock.

"Jason why do you have an inner room in your room?" she was utterly horrified. I immediately pushed her into the inner dark room and locked her.

She began screaming and shouting, well that's the goal...she should ask for help.
