SOMEONE'S POV
"I heard Sevastian's granddaughter, the heir to the Cortejo Group of Company, has returned," Lux said.
"Yes, big brother, that's why I'm so annoyed!" his sister shouted.
"Don't worry, my little sister, because we will get back at them for the mistake that caused our sibling's death."
"Tomorrow there will be a party at the campus for the coronation of the King and Queen," his sister said, making Lux smile.
ELIZ'S POV
"Don't worry, I'm here if anything bad happens."
"Don't worry, I'm here if anything bad happens."
"Don't worry, I'm here if anything bad happens."
*Thud thud thud!
What the...why is my heart beating like this? It's so weird!
Let's admit it, guys, I felt a bit relieved when he said that. Who knows, the person who sent the death threat might suddenly cause trouble? If you ask me, it would be a good time to strike now because there are so many people. But I hope I'm wrong.
I'm currently on stage next to Ruhan. We're sitting on thrones like we're really a King and Queen.
"Hey, Ruhan, there's Bella, she's giving us a nasty look..go to her," I said.
"Why? Are you jealous?" he asked, making me look at him.
He really has the nerve.
"Why would I be jealous, huh? Tss, if I could, I would let her sit here, but I can't," I said.
"Why not? You like being Queen, don't you?" he teased.
"Duh~not because of that, that girl's attitude is awful. And you're getting involved with her, you're both demons!" I snapped at him.
"What? A handsome demon? Nice," he replied with a very sweet smile.
Yuck!
I'll be in denial for now because I don't want to admit to him that I find him handsome. He might get a big head.
I just watched the students dancing below the stage. This isn't just for us. It's also a welcome party because the new school year has started, and I heard they're announcing the new Prime 4 tonight.
I saw Lyca dancing with Nathan from below. Hmm..they look good together.
"May I?" Ruhan asked, extending his hand, which I accepted right away.
Why not? Who am I to refuse my King?
"Sure," I said and stood up. He assisted me down and we went to the middle of the dance floor.
"Ayieee!"
"They look good together!!"
"Ruhan is so handsome!!"
"Eliz is beautiful too!"
"You look beautiful tonight.." Night whispered to me.
Tonight? Is he joking?
"Only tonight? Forget it!" I snapped and was about to turn away when he suddenly pulled me back to face him.
"They're so sweet!!"
"OMG!! Are they a couple?!?"
"W-what are you d-doing?" I asked because our faces were so close.
He placed my hands on his shoulders. We continued dancing because I was too embarrassed to walk out with so many people around.
We stayed on the dance floor for a few more minutes until the music ended.
"Let's go, Grandpa Sevastian is about to make the announcement," he said.
We went back up to the stage and sat down again.
"Why do you call him Grandpa too? You're not even his grandson!" I said, but he just laughed.
"I don't know, Grandpa told me to call him that. I asked why but he said he'll tell me next time," he said, as if he was deep in thought.
Should I ask Grandpa? Maybe next time!
"Okay everyone, it's time to announce our new set of Prime 4!" Grandpa Sev said.
The students sat down at the beautifully arranged tables. The campus must have spent a lot on catering.
"I know most of you already have an idea who will be in the Prime 4, right? But let's make it formal," Grandpa said.
Yes, Ruhan is probably one of them, right? Isn't he the King?
"May I invite our Campus Queen to put the necklace on the new Prime 4, symbolizing their membership?" Grandpa asked, looking at me.
I stood up and approached Grandpa. He handed me a box and I opened it. Inside were four necklaces with sapphires in the middle, engraved with the number 4.
"I wonder who?"
"Maybe Kean!"
"Ruhan is a sure bet!"
"Okay...For our Prime 4...Kean Hyun!" Grandpa announced.
"I knew it!"
"He's so handsome!!"
A guy with brown hair and the right height and hidden charisma went up on stage. He's handsome and seems nice. I hope.
I approached him and put the necklace on him.
"Hi there, Queen," Kean greeted me.
He's the one with Korean blood, right? He looks like those KPOP idols I see on TV.
"Just call me Eliz," I said with a smile.
"For our next member of Prime 4...Shin Choi!"
A guy in a red tuxedo went up on stage, waving. He had a sweet smile.
"Here.." I said, putting the necklace on him.
"Thanks, Queen Eliz," he said, and I was surprised when he kissed my hand.
I'm 100% sure he's a playboy. No doubt.
I ignored that and moved on to put the necklace on the next person Grandpa called.
"I didn't expect you to be a Prime 4 member," I said as I put the necklace on him.
"I'm your cousin, aish," he said.
Yup! Nathan is a Prime 4 member, and I'm not surprised. Well, good for him!
"And lastly...Our King! Ruhan Pedraza!"
What? He's seriously a member? Just kidding! I knew he would be.
He stood up and approached me, even winking at me.
"Tss, you're now a Prime 4 member!" I snapped at him because of jealousy.
"That's okay, babe," he said, patting my back.
After putting the necklace on him, I hit him on the head.
"Ouch! You're hurting me? I like that," he said with a mischievous smile.
Should I be creeped out? Geez! The longer I know him, the weirder he gets.
"The newly...Prime 4!" Grandpa announced.
"OMG!!"
"They're so handsome!!"
"Sheezz!! So hot!!"
Well..the students are right. They are handsome. And Shin is cute even if he's a bit of a playboy, remember? He's the one who kissed my hand?
The applause continued as the four proudly stood on stage. Nathan was waving like a celebrity. Ruhan, on the other hand, was staring at me.
"What?" I asked sharply and glared at him.
"Nothing..." he replied.
"Tss, you're always thinking weird things—"
Bang! Bang!
What the?! Can I still act tough?
Duh~!
