Chapter 1 Supernaturals

Third pov.

Everyone is back to school, you could see groups of girls and boys chatting and laughing, mostly talking about their summer experience and all that.

"Mine was fabulous, we went to Mexico for the summer, you can imagine how nice that would have been". Different chatters everywhere and giggles.

While the freshmen are at the registration point doing their own business. Then we have the transferred students too.

As the whole school was doing their thing, it suddenly became quiet. She walked in like she didn't care about the world. All eyes are on her right now, as she makes her way towards her locker, she's fearless, like a fearless Alpha, you won't want to mess with, she's got this nice vibes, but everyone always has a weakness.

"Oh geez, finally back to school" sigh.

Jazz got to her posted class,taking her seat, not even glancing at anyone,even though she could feel their piercing gaze at her, especially Betty Nick and her co's.

The class was so noisy that it was really disturbing her, that she couldn't even think, so as the president she is,she had to take action for that behavior.

"Damn....can you guys keep it low, this is just the beginning of our session and this is it?" Sorry, you don't mind her language. She is so into words like that. Especially when she's pissed.

"Oh there she is, the one and only saint president, thought you wouldn't be saying anything by now, but i was all wrong" Betty of course won't keep her mouth shut. "Are you giving up already, we just started, there is still more to this" you can just wonder how her co's keep up with her bratty attitude. Jazz smiled at her "what did I say something funny?"she utterly became confused.

"You know better watch your back b*tch." Jazz states.

"Did she just call me b*tch?" Betty asked

"Yes she did" And the whole class burst out in laughter.

"Everyone shut up! " She yells.

The whole class became so quiet, like a pin drop silence. Then the principal interrupted the whole situation which was technically not fine with Betty.

But he was not alone, he was with a guy, but Jazz being Jazz didn't look at who it was,cos that's technically none of her business except when it has something to do with the president then that's when she comes in.

"Good morning scholars"

"Good morning Mr Briggs" everyone greets in unison.

He nods "Good, umm...this guy here is going to be in this class so make him feel welcomed, he's been transferred here to finish this session with you guys, so my boy welcome to The Quest High School, get yourself a seat, have a good day everyone" he leaves.

"Wassup bro, you haven't introduced yourself "one of the boys from the back spoke.

"Oh, my bad, am Damon Donalds"

That voice literally caught Jazz's attention and I was like"why not take a little peek,it won't kill, you know", and when she did,she was caught off guard when she saw him staring at her.

He made his way towards her, which literally scared the hell out of her. Until she noticed there was this empty chair beside her, which made it more complicated.

She felt her heart beat in a different way, which got her very scared. That's when she realized that? " This dude will be my doom and I have to avoid him no matter what." He smiled at her, but of course after noticing what happened she just ignored him, and focused on the documentary book in front of her.

"Hey, is that the latest documentary? I have been dying to get one"Damon asked while smiling.

"But you are still alive" that sarcastic tho.

But the funny thing was that this dude kept smiling like she said something amusing.

"Am I amusing to you?" That was initially what she wanted to say,but she just ignored it.

"Hey bro, I like your style, am Doug Stan" The guy sitting by his said.

"Um.. yeah thanks.... actually i was given this card to look for the president on my tour around the school. Do you by any chance know who the person is?" Damon asked.

Doug smiles"she is by your side."

"Oh "

"You have this Alpha vibe, are you one?"

"Yes"

"She's also one, while I am heretic,you know what that means,no you don't, not everyone knows what we are in school, some are human. But there is sure a vampire and witch too, isn't that cool"

Doug kept talking nonstop,and one could notice how tired this new guy is.

So when Damon thought Doug won't stop talking, then the history teacher came in.

"Good morning people"

"Good morning"everyone greets in unison.

The class watched as the teacher wrote on the board, "Mr Rogers Milton." Jazz mumbled.

"I am Mr Rogers Milton, and I'll be your history teacher for the year" "Are any of you curious about the history of your school? Our school. The community of our school and the founders of our school."

Everyone knows this stuff, just that it's still a secret to the humans,of course they don't know about the supernatural beings on earth.

So all thanks to the Vampires' compulsions on them, The supernaturals have been able to keep them in the dark. It won't be fair to involve these innocent beings into their already corrupted world.

Jazlyn was lost in my thoughts till the bell rang and class was over.

"Hey pres, you were so lost during the history class".

At first she wasn't sure, but she knew it was this new guy. 'Why is he on my neck?'

"Am sorry, what?" She looked at him like he was a clown.

"It was obvious, your mind was not with us during the history class, anyways are we going on my tour or not, let's get going before the next class"

'Is he grinning at me right now?'

"Ok,fine."

She showed him around l, you know,though the school is really big, they finished their tour before the next class.

"So....."Damon looked at her smiling.

"To be frank with you, I really don't know why you're smiling,it doesn't just make any sense dude". She said and left for class.

Ouch that was rude.

He watched as she walked into the class, 'she is really feisty, I guessed that makes her the rightful one to be the president. But why do I keep getting so attracted to her, it's really weird.It feels really off,but when I think about her.' he thought "Why is she so uptight?" Then mumbles. This was the first thing he observed immediately as he stepped into the class. 'When I looked at her all I could see was this strong wall, which probably had been built to isolate herself from everyone. This is just my first day. I'll observe from afar.'

"Hey man, coming?"Doug came through.

"Yeah, behind you." He followed him inside as he looked at her again, 'I knew she was looking at me before, but she keeps looking away'. But Damon couldn't do anything about it. They had the rest of the class for the day.

"Hola," Betty walks up to Damon.

"Hey," He replied half -heartedly.

"Oh babe, what's with the cold attitude,never knew I'll get to see you again, it's been a minute"( a minute: like for ages.) She looked at him with her puppy eyes.

"Give me a beat."

"Aww, I feel so hurt, you're hurting my feelings babe"

Damon didn't bother replying this time, all he had to do, pack up all his books and meet this mysterious president, look around but couldn't find her,"where the hell did she go to and when did she leave, i don't even know her name. This is so dumb." He cursed.

"What babe, why are you so stressed, you know you can count on me with my magic," she said in a seductive way,while touching his arm with her long nails.

Damon looked at her and found himself speechless."I've really missed you"

"Aww, that's my baby, I knew it"

"I have missed this slutty attitude of yours b*tch. Now move." This time, his voice was deep, as he was sounding so impatient. He pushed her aside gently as the gentleman he is.

"WTF, did he just talk to me like that? Geez," Betty became so furious.

"Betty?" One of her co's by the name Stella.

"Get lost b*tch"she glared at her.

While the latter shrieks. "Betty, you shouldn't be harsh on her." One of them being Marceline said.

They are actually five girls. Betty Nick. Marceline Stan. Shawty Maxwell. Josset Johnson. Stella Parker.

Stella is technically the lowest, exactly why Betty bosses her around,though she does it to the others, except Marceline. But Stella is just like their little puppet, when any of them needs anything she is always at their service, especially when it comes to Betty. Technically all five of them are witches.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

I stood at the edge of the freezing pond on the Boone estate, my body trembling with a fear that rattled my bones. Across from me, Amanda Olsen looked immaculate in her cashmere coat, a sharp contrast to the jagged reality I was trying to hold together. "Why?" I whispered. Amanda just smiled, admitting she killed Grandpa Boone because he actually liked me. She pulled out a thick envelope-divorce papers Cordero had signed that morning. She told me he called me a parasite and was celebrating with her the night I suffered a miscarriage. Before I could even scream, Amanda lunged and shoved me into the icy water. My heavy wool coat acted like a sponge, dragging me into the artificial abyss. I thrashed and gasped for air, but Amanda just stood on the bank, watching me drown with her hands tucked casually in her pockets. As my lungs burned and the darkness closed in, I realized I had spent my entire marriage taking their abuse. I was the "foster trash" and the "gold digger" who let them win every single time. I was dying alone, hated by the husband I had tried so hard to love, while my murderer stood victorious on the shore. I never fought back. I just let them destroy me. Then, a violent spasm tore through my body. I sat up gasping, sucking in dry, air-conditioned oxygen instead of murky pond water. I wasn't dead. I was back in the opulent master suite, surrounded by red rose petals and wedding decorations. The digital clock glowed: October 14, 2019. I had gone back five years to the very night my nightmare began. The bathroom door clicked open, and Cordero stepped out, looking at me with the same cold disgust I remembered. But as I gripped the silk sheets, a new resolve hardened in my chest. This time, I wasn't going to be the victim. This time, the Boone family was going to find out exactly what happens when you push someone too far.
