This is a fresh start for Matt but what happens when a certain Illusionist catches his eye and suddenly everything seems to be a competition.
Matt takes a step inside the clubroom and clears his throat. The kid wearing the crown whirls around, "Oh, hi! Can I help you?"
Matt fidgets with his shirt sleeve as he speaks, "Yeah I was just hoping to join the Human Appreciation Society?"
"Yeah that's us, come have a seat." The kid smiles as he motions to an empty seat at the end of the table next to a girl with blue hair who seems to have an eyeball for a face.
"I'm Augustus, the president." The kid says motioning to himself.

THE HEART I WANTED
"Michaelson, right?" Coleton asked, finally looking at her. The sudden attention made Lily flinch. He knows my name, she thought, a nervous flutter rising in her chest. "Yeah, how'd you know?" she asked, trying to sound nonchalant, though she could hear the sharpness in her voice. "I figured," he replied, now flipping through the textbook, his voice calm. "Of course, you did," Lily muttered sarcastically, rolling her eyes. "Didn't catch that," he said with a smirk, clearly amused. "Nothing. I said nothing," Lily said quickly, edging a little further away from him, hoping to put some distance between them. She could feel the strange tension building but wasn't sure how to deal with it.

The President With A Sunshine Smile
At the most prestigious academy in the country where bloodlines rule, status is currency, and reputation is everything the elite student rule like royalty. None shine brighter than Orm, the thunder in the halls, the recklessly brilliant Student Council President, and daughter of the school's founder. She's all sunshine, noise, and scandalous charm-dancing around rules with a grin and dragging chaos wherever she goes. Crowned at the top of their elite circle, The Crowns, Orm lives like the world belongs to her. And then there's Ling. Distant. Untouchable. Terrifyingly perfect. The cold-blooded top student who doesn't flinch, doesn't falter, and never breaks character. Where Orm crashes through like a storm, Ling moves like a blade-sharp, composed, and feared. She's law without shouting, brilliance without mess. The one girl in school who's never had to raise her voice to be heard. They were never supposed to cross paths. But after one strange night and a single crack in Ling's perfect world, the two suddenly find themselves seated at the same council table-and something begins to shift. Whispers start. Alliances strain. And everyone watches. Because in a world built on appearances and silence, why would Ling suddenly care about anything Orm does? When chaos crashes into perfection, the whole academy holds its breath.

enemies. "Did I not warn you about staying away from me today?" he says as he looks at my eyes. Deeply. My brain stops for a second. His hand is closed around my neck, his face is dangerously close to mine. And I'm breathing heavily. He sees whatever's wrong with me, and stays still for a second, a small smirk forming in his lips. Then, his eyes find my lips. What the hell is happening? My heartbeat fastens as I hold my breath. And his eyes find mine, again. He slowly leans in. His mouth traces my jawline and face. It doesn't touch me, but he's too close I feel his breath. I don't even realize that his hand has released my throat, and I could freely go if I wanted to. But I'm feeling way too many things at the same time. Why aren't you running, Jess? I then feel his lips on my jawline for a second; and I find my hands tugging into his hair, as I breathe a bit too heavily. He then lifts up his face, lips next to my ear. "So. Fucking. Easy." he mutters. © All the characters and the story is owned by me! Thank you.Complete
