Taming the Devil

Anica Morvan

7:30 a.m.

I guess I need to start moving to prepare for my school. I got up and went straight to my bathroom. I guess being too independent has its negative side also. Yup! I’m in college and I live on my own. I have to work while studying to pay for my rent and my studies at the same time. It was hard but what can I say? I love being a workaholic! But don’t get me wrong! Even though I love working and studying, I still make sure that I have time to relax and go shopping with my friends (yes! I do have friends, thank you.)

After having my breakfast, I took my time in taking a shower (this is my weakness: indulging myself in my tub with aromatics). After that, I quickly dressed with plain white blouse, black skinny jeans and jacket, while putting minimal make-up. I went straight in my BMW with my coffee (did I forget that my parents ARE FREAKIN’ RICH?) we live in a mansion with seven rooms

Though my parents didn’t really agree of me being independent, but because they love me to death, they just pleaded me to at least allow them to give me a house of my own, but I’m still looking for the best location for that.

I enrolled myself to a distant learning program so I will only have to go to chool once a week just to pass my papers and research.

“Good day Ms. Morvan, how can I help you?” greeted and smiled. He is the adviser for those students in the distant learning program. He is very nice and warm. “Good morning sir, I’m here to pass my research for the week”. “Ah, great! You’re always on time” he acknowledged. “very well then, I would like to give you this” he handed me an envelope. “that is for the yearly art festival here in the school” he informed “and we also like you to pot some of your art in the gala”. I was caught off guard by what he said. I really love paintings and arts but this is my opportunity to show my talent! I almost squeal with the excitement. “Of course! It would be my honor Mr. Clement”

After I left the office, I immediately opened the envelope to see the information. Great! I still have three weeks to prepare all my art work and to invite my parents at the gala.

I was so busy reading my letter that I accidentally bumped someone. “Oh My gosh! I’m so sorry!” I was already stuttering when I noticed that it might be a professor to his semi-formal attire. I tried helping the “guy” by getting his notes we accidentally bumped each other’s head (again! How clumsy of me!) “Ouch! That really hurt!” while touching and slightly rubbing my forehead. “I’m sorry Miss?” I immediately stopped when I heard his voice. It was deep but soft, like velvet. I caught him looking at me and waiting for my answer “I – its Anica” I just stutter (way to go Anica! Now you look stupid). He put his hands in my head and it immediately send shivers to my whole body (what the hell?! Does he carry any electric wire or something?!) shock and confused, I look at him and I was mesmerized by his gorgeous eyes, it was VIOLET! Oh my god! I only know one celebrity to have that kind of eyes. He looks like a god! While he was helping me to get up, I was surprise that he is also tall, about 6’3 compare to my 5’6, slim frame. He has a strong built, with a jet black hair. His features made my knees feel like it has loss it’s bones. I was already daydreaming when he cut me off, “I guess we need to go to the clinic Miss Anica, your nose is bleeding” looking concern. “What?!” I instantly touch my nose and confirmed what the guy just told me “Oh my Gosh!” I started to feel dizzy and lightheaded. “Sir, I hate to say this but I’m feeling dizzy.. you see, I’m afraid of- ” I have not finished my sentence cause I already blacked out.
