Love Among Shadows

Chapter one

Aunt Kay I'm leaving for school already, Ivory's voice sounded as she ran from her bedroom heading straight to the door,

Ivy!!! Come back here and have your breakfast, Aunt Kay instructed.

But she is a strong-headed little demon, she took a big bite and ran out heading straight to her cool bike.

Aunt Kay byeee, have a lovely day ahead, that was all Katherine heard before Ivory zoomed off to school.

Hello babe, I've been waiting all day for you, what the hell were you doing at home

WE ARE DAMN LATE IVY!!! Emilia's voice sounded immediately Ivory got to the school.

I know Emy, but can you please bring your voice down, I might go deaf at this rate.

Hmph, let's get going before we miss our first class for the day,Emy chanted and that was all it took to move Ivy's body towards the class room.

Emy did you complete your assignment over the weekend? Or you're gonna make us do it together as usual, Ivy smiled satisfyingly looking at Emy all because she remembered to bring it up.

Oh hell no Ivy, I did that assignment but just remembered the one given by Professor Lance, I am surely getting some scolding, well there's nothing to worry about, it has happened,Emy shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly.

See who's so carefree about Prof Lance's assignment, OMG!!! Ivy laughed out heartily.

Let's see how you keep up with it when Prof Lance finally ask for his assignment,Ivy replied her and chuckled.

IVORY COAST THE GREAT!!! That was all it took to turn their necks to the newcomer.

EMILIANO ZAPATA!!! Stop calling me in that manner 👿 you know my name dude, just stop it or else you're gonna get some good spanking 😏

Oh baby I'm not stopping any time soon, I always love getting on your nerves, Emiliano showed a boyish grin and ruffled Ivy's hair.

He did the same to Emy and that successfully earned him a slap from Emilia

Emilianoooooo! how dare you ruffle my hair? Now you've scattered my hair style. You're gonna pay for this Liano

Alright Emy I'm sorry but please don't call me Liano, find a masculine nickname and you're free to call me, but Liano, it's a no no no .

Waiiiit! We're gonna be late, Emiliano exclaimed in horror.

Last person to get to the class is going to pay for lunch, off we go, Emiliano’s voice rang out in delight.

And just like that, the three of them ran off like little children.

Emy came out last which automatically makes her responsible for their lunch.

Ivory Lane,Emilia Grey and Emiliano Grey, you are late today, care to explain yourselves? Prof Clark's voice rang out in an overwhelming tone.

Please ma'am we stayed up all night making research on your current topic, Emilia lied on a smooth tone.

That was all it took to earn Prof Clark's forgiveness.

Alright settle on your seats let us continue from where we stopped.

The lecture went on and they all listened attentively.

“““‘

...... Cafeteria......

Emilia immediately went straight to the cafeteria to order the meals before Emiliano and Ivy, just to make sure they don't order more than her budget.

Aahaa! I got here on time,Emilia sighed with relief.

Ooh! Look who we have here, Ashley's voice echoed in the cafeteria. She is the leader of the ABC girls of the campus.

The members of the ABC girls are Ashley, Bianca and Clarissa.

The three of them actually come from the third tier family in the country.

With respect to their wealthy background, they were spoiled rotten, hence becoming bullies.

Emilia turned just in time to see the three girls making their way towards her.

She immediately rolled her eyes helplessly before moving away like she didn't see them.

Hey! Where do you think you're going? Come back here slut! Clarissa barked out mercilessly.

That was all it took for Emilia to turn back.

At this point, the students gathered around in groups to watch the interesting banter.

Wow! Who did you just call a slut? I guess I am definitely not the one, Emilia questioned with a smirk.

You are a slut since Ivory who you claim to be your friend is, after all "A friend of a prostitute, is a prostitute". Bianca replied with an oppressive voice.

So you think I am a slut? everyone's attention shifted towards the newcomer, Ivory announced her presence in a graceful manner.

Ivory,dressed in a simple outfit with a denim jacket and cap walked slowly with hands folded under her breast as she approached the scene.

Please make it clear to me, how did I become a prostitute? Ivory questioned Ashley, Bianca and Clarissa with a threatening gaze.

How dare you? a lowly church rat with a fish brain, how dare you question me? Bianca berated with steaming anger.

Emilia and Ivory simultaneously burst into a fit of laughter.

Oh my goodness!!! you look so red with your nose opening wildly like the Mediterranean sea, Emilia mocked Bianca with delight.

Emilia's remark resulted in an unavoidable fight, this was all Emilia wanted—to teach the three of them a bitter lesson.

They fought relentlessly before the timely intervention of a lecturer.

What the hell did I miss??? Emiliano questioned, in utmost disbelief.

Emilia and Ivory actually gave the three girls a valuable and unforgettable lesson.

Ashley was bathed with chicken soup and spicy noodles all over her hair.

Bianca was left in just her bra and panties since she was barely wearing a piece of clothing.

Clarissa received a lot of blows since she was standing right in front of Emilia.

The gathering of students were really having a hard time in holding their amusement.

Disperse immediately, or face the wrath of her family!! Bianca ordered in a loud voice at the crowd.

Everyone quickly walked away since they couldn't afford to offend the girls.

Give me a high five baby girl, Emilia squealed at Ivory in delight. Yay!!!! We were awesome Emy, the duo practically jumped in the air.

Ivy, Lian let's move along for lunch, my money can't be wasted because of some nuisance, Emy voiced out as they made their way to the table for lunch.

The trio ate in delight like little children.
