Adeline open the eyes over the shower, cutting off the flashback and rubbing her face, but she cringed in pains cause of the process caused by Malik's punches.
"That bastard" she muttered, but then it's not only him.
She also has a cut on her cheek caused by the second bastard who threw a blade at her.
She doesn't give a f**k who he is. She's wounding him back the next time they meet.
A knock sounded at the door, and she jumped.
Her roommates?
She cleared her throat before speaking in her fake male voice...
"Who's.. there?"
"It's Kimberly" a low voice replied, and her eyes widened.
She quickly wrapped a towel on her body and went to open the door.
Kimberly's blue eyes came to view, and she quickly came in, locking the door before hugging Adeline so tight, stroking her trimmed hair.
"Adechka" Kimberly sobbed emotionally.
"Kimberly" Adeline sobbed too, hugging her back.
They didn't break the hug for more than three minutes, and when they broke it, they smiled. Their smiles radiated from their matching blue eyes.
"Do I look like a boy enough?" Adeline asked.
"Trust me, you do. You're a pretty boy" Kimberly smiled, palming her face.
" Now that you're here, you must pass the physical trials tomorrow " she said.
" I will, but what happens to those who won't pass it? " Adeline asked.
" Their memories of what they saw in this clan will be wiped, and they'd be thrown out, so you have to pass" Kimberly replied, and Adeline nodded.
" We have to behave like strangers publicly, right? "
" Yeah. No one must find out we're siblings. Everyone here knows my only sibling is still in jail and she's a girl. They must not find out it's you, and no one must find out you're a female. They're madly suspicious and watchful here" Kimberly said sternly, her eyes turning frigid.
" What happens if they find out I'm a female? And if they find out we deceived them and I'm your sister? " Adeline asked in a low voice.
Kimberly's lips pressed before she spoke up...
You'll be killed by me. I'll be ordered to kill you"
Adeline went cold, choking on her own saliva.
