ep1:the worst nightmare

Jessica's pov

Grrrrrrrr...the alarm bell was dingling non stop

I stood up and yawned.......

Looked at the time

Oh shit

I'm late!!

I quickly yanked off the duvet

And sped off to the bathroom

Few moments later I'm done

What next

Ohhh yes it's my necklace

The one mom gave me

After she disappeared

Don't ask me

Don't know either

And yeah u guessed right..............

It's my first day at lollen's senior high

Anna darling are u up??

Nanny dowens

Walked inside to inspect my dress, as always

Well she's really the close person I had since my dad is always busy at work

Though we spent weekends catching up together

Sorry my bad,heres a little of my biography

I'm Anna Viber 15 years old, tall, navy blue eyes with a touch of gold and long curly hair

My dad is William Viber owner of the massive Penelope Grand Hotel named after my mom

After mom left or disappeared dad was obsessed and heartbroken

and he channeled all his energy into work

nowadays he barely have time for me

Couple of times Ive found the servants mumbling words when I passed

I can't tell what it was though

But .......

That was years ago....

So back to my story

Ohhhhhhh yes I'm done miss dowens

U need anything else sweetheart? Nanny dowens said peering closely at me

I muttered "a no thank u"

And dashed off to the garage where the driver is waiting

I immediately entered and he sped off..................

Lollen's high

I immediately brought out my map to know the exact direction to the classroom

Immediately I entered..........

All eyes turned to me

All murmurings stopped and everyone was looking at me with anticipation

Ep2:my dream come true

But my eyes widened in shock

It's him!!

Edan's pov

I was taken aback when the newbie

Was walking towards my direction

Yh there's an unoccupied seat right beside me

But no one has ever sat beside me since they all think I'm a weirdo

With thick brown eyebrows

And golden fiery eyes

so I'm sort of a lone "wolf"

to make it worse they always avoid me

But,

There's more to me

That no one ever knows

...................

Hi!!

The girl waved at me with a sweet smile

I was a little shocked to speak

I'm Anna by the way

What's yours

Edan!

I said abruptly and stood up to leave

👤: I wonder what the newbie is saying to the weirdo

👤: me too but she's hot

Anna's pov

U might be wondering about my awkwardness right.....

Flashback...........

The night mom disappeared

I had the most peculiar dream

I was in a forest clearing

The night was starry and the moon was bright

I was very sure it wasn't a dream

If its a vision or a dream I can't tell

Still wondering how I got there

Then..............

Whoosh!!

I turned to the direction of the noise

Only to see a male figure getting down

From what appeared to be a unicorn

A flying unicorn!!!!

Impossible!!!

He started walking towards a direction

I followed...

He got to a massive boulder

And pulled out a long sword

Too long to be real!!!

Then he made a quick gestures and drew a symbol in the mid air

I was about to move closer when a twig cracked under my feet

Ohh no!!!

The figure turned and shouted

Who's there!!!

I hid behind an oak tree

Show yourself now coward!!

I closed my eyes expecting to see him leering down at me with a smug smile

Just like in the movies

But

I felt someone tap me

"wake up anna" I opened my eyes to see nanny dowens looking at me concernedly

"ohh good morning miss dowens"

"I see you were having a bad dream cause you were tossing when I came in"

"its nothing really"

she gave a curt nod then went out

I sighed!!

What a weird dream

.....................................

But I really can't shake off the dream

I can remember vividly that the male figure is just like the boy in class

soon after the school bell rang

today is not bad for a beginner right

I thought as I walked towards my locker

hey new girl!!! I turned it was a girl with a pretty smile walking up to me

I'm Diana

nice to meet you

then some group of boys came too

👤:hi doll face

👤:welcome to our humble territory

👤:feel free and welcome too!!!!

👤:pretty isn't she!!

ugh!!

anna sighed well its the same her looks is complimented anywhere she goes though she doesn't consider herself pretty

party tonight sweet girl

Ellen the school's most hottest guy in school said to her

as he handed her an envelope without waiting for a response he ran off

Hey Anna!!

I turned

it was my friend isa

here goes the worst.....

Isa's POV

I was quite surprised when I saw Anna in my school

I really wasn't expecting that

you know Anna and I were childhood friend

she really was devastated after her mom left

it had been hard on the poor girl

but I was with her through it all

...........................

hey! she replied

she sighed

'I wanted change of environment'

I patted her back

I understood......

but wait whats that you're holding

ohhh its an invitation to a party

I said as she rolled her eyes and then smirked

let's see who will reach the school gate first and we ran off................

that's how she gets to me

unknown POV

he said with a deep growl

m-m master I tried but.......I haven't found it yet

please give me a second chance

second chance you say!

we need it for me to be the alpha king

I really cant wait to put my foolish sister in her place

she wont know what's hit her

this is my last conversation with you

else you know what follows next

he said coldly

the male silhouette said as he disappeared into thin air as if he wasn't there before

i promise not to disappoint you again master

the other figure said with a smirk

and sharp glint in his eyes

then followed a maniacal laughter

then a devilish howl

with a surprising transformation of thick fur long nails and red furry eyeball

then with a quick leap and he disappeared into the dark night

ep3:a repeated nightmares

William's mansion

Anna's POV

after I reached home I ran upstairs to my room

and flung my school bag on my bed

and lied down exhaustively

closing my eyes to calm my nerves

no need to check on dad since he's always busy

few moments later..................

I flung my eyes open on hearing a crashing sound down the kitchen

ohhh no

could it be a burglar!!!;

I searched for my phone to go down there and check

I walked down the kitchen hallway holding my phone gingerly as a means of torchlight

I noticed a man's silhouette

I felt his piercing eyes boring daggers through my soul

then his eyes darted to my necklace

then........

Give it!!!!!!!

he said in a hush

what do you want

money??!!!

Take it all and leave me alone!

I want no money silly child

GIVE IT TO ME!!!!!!!!!

he roared thunderously

and I saw his clawed fingers moving towards me

then.....

Anna!!!!

are you alright

it was nanny dowens

I opened my eyes

I was in a daze,

that seemed so real!!!

thankfully it was all a dream
