Sabrina defends her mother after her father, lying lifeless on the floor, followed what Sabrina's mom ordered her to do with a gun in her hand. After hearing the police siren, her mother left her alone at the door with the gun in her left hand. As her mom says out, the police did not do anything to her, simply because she was a child. Even though they sent her to an orphanage, an older gentleman arrived and took her out, offering Sabrina to stay with his family at their mansion. Sabrina met the mafia's son but he walked away. He was always rude to her and he always pushed her away, but before his parents died, his father left him on a mission in order to protect Sabrina, even if he was the Mafia Bos's son.
I heard a series of knocks from outside my room so I immediately adjusted my uniform and looked in the mirror before opening it.
And I suspected correctly, it's Saint. I looked at him with bored eyes.
"Listen Klea, you won't use your name the whole school year if you still want to be alive. Don't call me Saint, Angelous, or even my surname in public. Do you understand?" He said with authority. I am really afraid of him. Even when we were young, he was never nice to me.
I know I'm just an obstacle in his life but he can't do anything because his Daddy bought me from him.
"This will be your new name. New identity to be exact." He said again and gave me an ID. I accepted that.
Danica Sy? That's a nice name. "Don't you ever talk to anyone about our relationship, just say we are childhood friends? Got that?"
I nodded. "Don't make friends. Tell me who is introducing you. I am not being hilarious to you or what I am just protecting you got that?"
I couldn't say anything to him so I just nodded. "Use a mask when you go outside."
That was his last reminder before he left my presence. Today is my first day in school. All my life I've been homeschooled for safety purposes.
Many people hunt me down because of what I did to kill my own father, I just killed the highest person in the underworld organization and they are hunting me to shut me down. And to make me the heiress of that organization.
But Grandpa Santino won't agree to that, Saint's father. Grandpa Santi is my Dad's friend. And Dad asked Grandpa Santi to never give me up to the mafia bosses. And he agreed even though he belonged to them.
Grandpa Santi guaranteed everything was going to be alright. That I'll have a normal life just what my Daddy wanted.
"Klea! We're getting late. Hurry up!"
I grabbed my things and immediately followed Saint who was waiting for me and leaning on his car.
He's not going to use his Porsche? And he's going to settle for a low-quality car? A Chevrolet.
"Just to keep you safe we ​​need to lay down at school. We can't be a show off to everybody. Everyone will suspect." I nodded and entered the shotgun seat.
He started the engine and maneuvered to the school.
****
While in the car, I couldn't help but think that maybe it wouldn't be bad if I had a friend, right? Saint will have friends too right? He's a catch.
He's handsome. Smart. Talented. I think he can do it all and it is not unlikely that he will make many friends here.
"If you're thinking about having friends. No." I immediately looked at Saint because he suddenly spoke.
He fixed the eyepatch he was wearing and looked at me with his brown eyes.
"Don't call me by my name. I have a new identity too, I'm Rozen Alcantara from now on. Do you get it?" He asked and I nodded.
I got out of his car first and entered the school first. A lot of people are staring at me now because I'm a new student.
'I heard she comes from a Chinese family..'
'She's white...'
'Bro she's beautiful! Let's go.'
I heard whispers from people around me. But that stopped immediately for reasons unknown to me.
I turned around at the gate and I could clearly see how Saint simply walked and was also looking at me. He motioned me to walk so I immediately did.
A few hours passed and I was very thankful that no one tried to approach and talk to me.
It's lunchtime and I don't know where to go. So after I bought food, I went straight to the classroom and ate there.
But I was very surprised when suddenly someone entered our classroom and I looked at him. It's my seatmate, sitting behind me.
What is its name again? Ah! Psalm correct.
"Hi Danica, why are you eating alone?" He suddenly asked me and smiled while walking towards me.
Suddenly what Saint said came to my mind. 'No making friends.' But he's not here, right? Maybe it's okay
"Ah, I don't know anyone here..." I answered shyly, this was the first time I talked to someone outside of Saint's mansion.
"Well, I'm Psalm Axel Sudalga. And you're Danica Sy, now you know someone." He said with a smile.
This guy has a bright aura, I can tell. His curly hair and bright round eyes tell that he's a bright and jolly person. I love meeting this kind of people.
All my life I've been surrounded by negativity.
"Ah, thank you for talking to me. I appreciate it." I said with a smile
. He nodded at me and smiled again. He's cute.
I was surprised when he suddenly took a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the corner of my lips.
"Sorry, it has ketchup." He said with a smile.
I just shook my head and continued eating.
At least I made a friend today.
***
When we got home, Saint was speechless. He just went straight inside his mansion. But he immediately stopped as if he saw something he didn't expect.
"Sister?" I immediately smiled. Sister Mary is back! I missed her so much.
I immediately ran into the house and saw him smiling and waiting for me. I immediately greeted him with a hug.
"How are you doing? Sat?" Sister Mary asked me with a smile.
I noticed Saint going up to his room so I smiled.
"I made a friend today!" I exclaimed silently because Saint might hear.
"Really? Is it a she or he?" He asked with a smile while combing my long hair.
"A he. Sister Mary, actually he's cute and I like him as a friend because his aura is bright!" I said smiling. I told Sister Mary how she introduced herself to me earlier.
And he was smiling at me. "My baby girl has a crush." He was teasing.
"No Sister Mary, I just like him as a friend. He's a good friend Kasi." I said smiling.
"Really? Why are your eyes blinking while you're talking?" I immediately covered my eyes and Ate Mary just laughed at me
"It's normal, Sab. You're twenty. It's normal to like someone." I nodded, Ate Mary was right.
Of the two of Saint, I really like Ate Mary more because she's smart. While Saint is always rude to me. As in, always.
"But Saint might get angry if he finds out, so I should probably end it," I said sadly.
"Why would he be?" Ate Mary asked confused.
"Because he said I shouldn't talk to anyone. And I shouldn't make friends unless he agrees." I said and scratched the back of my neck.
"Oh c'mon. You two are already in college. Just don't mind him okay? He's just being a lunatic and overprotective. He's like his brother too." I just nodded. Right. Saint is just protecting me
"Besides, he won't know if no one tells, right?" Sister Mary asked and winked at me. I smiled at her widely.
"Thank you, Sister Mary!" I said and hugged her.
Sister Mary brought me a cellphone from the US. It's my first one because Saint never gave me one because people who want to take it might trace me.
But now I have it! I am so happy. Sister Mary helped me create an instant account, it's a social media. And because I can't use my real name. I used Danica.sy as my username.
Sister Mary even helped me take a photo and made me beautiful. Some of my classmates followed me, most of them were my schoolmates who
even Psalm followed me. I smiled and I followed him back. And after that, he dm me immediately.
psalm.axe: Wow. Do you have social media now? You said earlier that it's not allowed because your parents are strict.
I smiled and replied.
danica.sy: they realized that they were too strict so they let me go.
And he replied immediately.
psalm.axe: Nice to know! Have to go nice talking to you for a short time. G'night ♡
My face burned when I saw the heart emoticon at the end of his message. I immediately typed back.
danica.sy : goodnight : )
My day was about to be complete when suddenly a notification appeared on my phone.
r.ozen just followed you.
the fuck?!
***
How did he find out? I was nervous so I immediately followed Psalm. Sorry Psalm. I'll explain it to you tomorrow. I stalked Saint's account and saw that I was the only one on his follow list.
And I was amazed when I saw how many people were following him. damn, He was new to our school but he immediately grabbed my attention. 7.6k followers? Even if he just did it now?
Well, I'm only 1.3k. I just shook my head and immediately followed him back because otherwise, he might scold me. I know Saint when he's mad, and I don't want to see that again.
The next day Saint was just quiet while driving, he didn't have any reminders or say anything.
I went to school first and he followed like yesterday, I was surprised when Psalm suddenly appeared out of nowhere and immediately approached me.
"You're bad, you suddenly unfollowed me when I was sleeping." He said and pouted in front of me, I just laughed at what he said.
I looked again at Saint's location and I was very thankful to see that he was no longer there. I turned my attention back to Psalm.
"Sorry, my mom got mad because she thought you were my boyfriend because you were the only one on my follow list." I am ashamed to say, I hate to lie. But it's necessary.
"Yeah. But the talk of the school is on your follow list now," he said. Talk of the school?
"Who?" I asked him confused.
"Who else? This is Rozen Alcantara. Many people like him even in junior highs" what? Is he that famous? That even in the high school department he reached?
Maybe lay down, he still knows how to lay down because he doesn't want to be tracked by the enemy, but here he is so famous that it's only one day of school.
"Oh? Bad mood? Do you have a crush on Rozen?" I immediately frowned and immediately shook my head.
"Never in my life will I like Rozen, if everyone dies I will not like him." I immediately said.
"Wow, you hate him so much. Is it your ex?" He asked again, you slapped him jokingly.
"No! Never." I said and immediately entered our classroom.
All my classmates are looking at me whether they are girls or boys.
'Is that him? The only one on Rozen's follow list?'
'Yes she is, who else is Danica Sy at school?'
'Can Rozen do them?'
I sat down in my chair and took a deep breath. Saint needs to unfollow me, it's annoying! Why did he become famous here?
I was surprised when the person next to me suddenly turned to me. It's Allison. The queen of the school is said to be the owner's daughter.
"Danica right?" He suddenly asked. I nodded.
"Unfollow Rozen on interface and tell him to follow me." He suddenly ordered, I raised an eyebrow at what he said.
"You want something, don't you? What did you do? Disabled?" I said and rolled my eyes at her.
But I was shocked when he suddenly touched the side of my hair and pulled my head closer to him and whispered.
"Do it or I'll cripple you as you say." She said and pushed my head back with force.
No one saw that because they were busy with what they were doing. I sighed. The second day someone threatened me with what more for the rest of the year?
I was quiet all day, no one spoke to me except Psalm. Every time I meet him, he smiles at me, but I don't return his smiles. Because I shouldn't really have a friend, as Saint said. What went through my mind and I agreed to be friends with Psalm?
This afternoon we are all in the quadrangle because we are being asked to choose the club we want to join. For the whole semester, I decided to pick a boring club so there was nothing to do. Journalism Club only becomes active when there are school activities to make school papers.
I am now standing at the door where the Journalism Club is posted. Saint wouldn't be mad right? Because he will also choose his club. I entered the room and I could clearly see the smile on the faces of the people there.
"Finally! After three years, someone also showed interest in our Club." A happy promise from a girl with short hair.
There were only six of them in that room. "Hi! Do you want to join our club?" A girl a little taller than me asked.
"Ah yes, because I want a club that doesn't do much," I said.
"It's good, almost all the students here don't want the club to be boring." A man said smiling as if his hair had not been combed.
They are four boys and two girls. Are they really like this? "Anyway, just fill it up here. I'll give the adviser the copy of the other one."
I followed what they wanted and filled in two papers. They kept one copy and gave me the other.
"Wait. Are you Danica Sy?" The Chinese man asked in surprise. I nodded.
"Woah, what I heard was right, you're beautiful.ă…ˇ" the girl with the short hair immediately elbowed him.
"Sorry about that. I'm Odette Smith. I'm a first-year college student and I've been loyal to our club since junior high." I nodded to him and accepted his hand. His club was also journalism in high school.
The girl with short hair approached me and introduced herself. "I'm Cassidy Grace Gomez. I'm a senior high student."
"I'm Eren Lee." The man who said something nice to me earlier said with a smile.
"Pierce Calvin Jimenez." The other said.
"Lawrence Rivera."
"And I'm Constantine Furrer or Stan." I smiled at them all.
"I'm Danica Sy. Nice to meet you all." I said st and they all smiled at me.
Lorence made me sit in the empty seat next to Cassidy. We talk about the activities that will be done for the whole semester. This club isn't bad.
"Danica, do you know that Odette likes Rozen? You know that, don't you?" I immediately looked at Odette who was now blushing.
"What are you doing, Rence? You know Rozen's girlfriend is Danica." Cassidy's words almost made me cry.
"He is not my boyfriend, we are just childhood friends." I said immediately, they all got 'o' and nodded.
"Then no one will be angry if I date you?" I was just stunned by what Eren said, Stan immediately whispered something to him that immediately disappeared the smile on Eren's lips.
"Sorry, I understand why you don't want to." They all shook their heads at Eren.
"You, Danica, don't approach Eren, he wants to flirt with everyone, there's no choice." Pierce teased. So they all laughed in that room.
I couldn't help but laugh. Saint will think of them as my co-club members, but for me, they are already my friends.
When I got home, I went straight to the parking lot to wait for Saint. But I was immediately surprised when Psalm suddenly appeared everywhere.
I was immediately nervous, Saint might see him!
"You, I'm about to sulk. You've been ignoring me for a while now. Are you mad at me?" He suddenly asked and I immediately shook my head.
"Why should I be angry with you?" I asked him.
"Well, you don't pay attention to me anymore. You really have a grudge against me." He insisted, I just laughed because he was cute.
"No, I'm not mad at you," I said.
"Why are you ignoring me?" he asked. Saint might get angry!
"I'm ashamed of you in public, what will they think?" That's all I said, Psalm laughed and I was surprised when he suddenly squeezed one of my cheeks.
"You're so cute. Oh okay, if you're not really mad at me I'll invite you to wander this Saturday." He said with a smile. My eyes widened, is he asking me on a date?
"But no ă…ˇ" he cut me off. "Nah-ah, you can't say no. If you say no, it means you're really mad at me and I'll be sad."
"Yes!" I forced myself to say and he smiled.
"I'll wait for that. Bye! Go home." He said and turned his back on me.
How do I say goodbye to Saint?
Until I got home, all I could think about was how to tell Saint. Because if I say I'm with someone else, he'll definitely come too. It's not that I don't want to be with him, but it's awkward, isn't it?
Saint is really overprotective. I know that her Daddy bought me from her, but maybe this is too much right? I will not be destroyed because of my association with Psalm. He is a nice guy. He is harmless.
I just lay on my bed and stared at the ceiling. Tomorrow is Wednesday, but maybe it would be better if I let Saint know early.
I mustered up my courage and stood up from the bed. Maybe he won't be angry. This is just a simple hang out, Daddy wants me to have a normal life and wandering is part of normal life.
I walked toward Saint's room and I could feel the nervousness enveloping my whole body. I know how scary Saint is when he's mad. He isn't the Mafia Boss for nothing.
I took a deep breath and knocked softly. "Who are you?" I heard him ask.
"It's Saturday," I said. He opened the door and his cold gaze immediately went down my spine. Be calm, Sat.
This is just simple, just ask him what you need
"Baby, always wear your face mask, is that okay?" I talked to my six-year-old son. "Okay, Mom!" He answered enthusiastically while looking at the high gate of the house where we were standing. "Are you going to work here?" He asked. I nodded and squeezed her cute hand. I hope we won't be evicted if I can work here. I also hope my son won't steal chocolates at night, my old boss mistook me for a ghost so I was fired! I couldn't help but laugh, my mother and I have been through so much and my son is strangely gaining weight and not losing weight. "Come in now." The guard caught my attention. I nodded and walked in with Alexandria. The butler of the mansion greeted us and escorted us to the maid's quarters, they were so happy with my daughter that you would think she would be working with them. But even so, I'm thankful because it seems like it's really okay that I work with him even though it's very unprofessional. Judy and Roxan didn't hold Alexander until he went to sleep, so it's bad if they scolded him until he was left to sleep.
He smiled then took my hand and put the book in there. I quickly took the book and walked out. I might punch him in no time. Fuck you my first kiss is gone. That's a damn president. She really is ready for me.
We just followed him with our eyes. Not far from the abandoned university, Ellice's car was parked and we were hanging out. It only takes a few steps to reach the gate, so we see Ella's every move as she slowly opens the gate. "Girls, it's open. Come on, let's take a look inside" Ella yelled at us. We got out of the car one by one and went to see Ella. When we arrived at the gate we found that it was indeed open. After all, no one is surprised by an abandoned person. "What are we going to do? Don't tell me we're going in there?" Mitch asked cleverly. He just followed us and kept his hand on his mosquito-bitten leg. "Let's go inside. Let's find a place to sleep. We can't just spend the night in the car," I told them. Maybe some bad person passed by where we parked the car, and we might be tripped up, we're still girls. We have nothing against you. "France is right. We have to get inside to find a place to rest" Ellice agreed with what I was saying and went inside first. "But guys-"
I was just walking around the premises of my new school. Our class just ended and the teachers announced that it was 'club hours' and that we could join the club we wanted. The case... I don't want anything. There is nothing like that for me. I can't go to the sports club because I have asthma. I will drown if I join the Swimming Club because I can't even do a simple dog swim. It's also not possible in Math or Science Club because my brain will definitely explode there. I can't do Cheerdance because I don't know how to dance and my bones will break because of the hardness of my body. I'm not an artist by blood and I'm not a book lover. I then thought of hanging myself from a tree. I have no talent. I'm having a hard time choosing a club. So I just chose to walk around. I'm also new to this school. I was educated when my uncle was abroad so I was able to move to the classy St. Mikhailov's Academy. As I walked I reached the part of Nevada's Square that was quite wooded. There are many trees and big ones. I sat down in the shade and rested while looking around. Then suddenly....
As I was walking along the road, I noticed someone looking at me. So I looked around but I couldn't see him. So I just told myself that it was just my imagination. I just walked because I was in a hurry to get to the Jeep Terminal. But I stopped walking because someone suddenly grabbed my arm. So I got nervous and I suddenly looked at him. I can't see his face because he's wearing a mask. I wanted to talk to him but he turned me away and put a handkerchief over my mouth. I struggled but I couldn't because he was too strong. So with so much struggle and dizziness, I lost consciousness.
There are things in this world that we cannot see clearly. Sometimes they are just people's imaginations and you may only read about them in books. Hiding because they know people will not understand them when they see them. Evil but sometimes does inexplicable good. Things that... Things? They don't really matter, what am I saying?

They dive and the beta surfaces with a small person in his arms. Alpha takes the girl from his beta, laying her on the ground. The men are shocked by what they see. She is covered in scars and injuries. Her body is twisted and broken. The Beta asks, "Who could have done this to someone so defenseless?" Alpha drops to his knees, repeating, "MATE...MATE...MATE!"
