Cali’s Pov:
I yawned out of sleep and found myself still lying on the bed.
Hmm. I stretched and that was when it occurred to me – I was actually the only one on the bed.
Where’s Miquel? Where did he sleep last night?
Hmph. I couldn’t even remember anything.
I sat up on the bed and thought for a while. I needed to go for classes, huh?
But where’s Miquel?
I stood up and went into the bathroom to brush my teeth. What do I even eat?
I decided to sort something out in the kitchen and getting there, I was shocked to find Miquel.
Whaaaat???
He’s been here all along???
He turned to give m a stare.
“hey” he hushed and turned back to what he was doing.
I closed the door and walked in.
“Good morning”, I said with a shy smile as I got to where he was and stood beside him.
He was making scrambled eggs.
“Good morning, beauty. How was your night?” He asked and I felt my cheeks turn red.
Did he just….
Did he just call me beauty???
“Are you seriously blushing because of that?” He asked with a scoff, bemusing me the more.
How did he know I was blushing?
He turned to look at me and I twitched.
“Is that the first time you’re hearing that from a guy?” He asked, staring directly at me.
“What?? Of….Of course, not. I had a lot of boys that’s been crushing on me back then in school. I was a queen, you know?” I rolled my eyes and leaned on the counter.
“Really?” He turned back to the eggs.
“So, you dated a lot of boys, then?”
“Huh?? Of course, I didn’t. Actually, I usually got angry when boys chase after me and majority of them back then tend to avoid me in school. Only the determined ones persisted” I replied.
“So…..you’re trying to say you scare boys?” He asked.
“Well, yes. I’m actually a stubborn lady, you know? And I’m not scared of anyone. I just….”
“But you’re scared of me?” He looked at me and asked and I felt my heart skip.
Gosh! Does he really have to point out the fact that he’s my weakness???
I bit my l-ips and stared down at the table and he chuckled and continued with the eggs.
“Go get the bread from the fridge” he said and I quickly left to get it.
Hmm. A big cold loaf.
He turned off the gas, poured the scrambled eggs into a plate and we left for the room to eat afterwards.

Naomi’s Pov:
“Seriously Naomi? You think we’re betrayers?” Natalie asked as i stood in the room with all three of them.
“The hell, yes. One or all of you betrayed me. How else did Miquel get to know about the plan? Was he told by a ghost or what??” I snapped at them.
“I’m…I’m really sorry about that, Naomi. But one thing’s for sure – I had nothing to do with it. I’d never betray you, Naomi” Ivy also said and I rolled my eyes.
“Same here, Naomi. I’d never betray you” – ch¡pped in Betty.
I fisted my hand and moved closer to them.
“One thing’s for sure” i said.
“The traitor’s right here – staring at me. And I want you to know this. I’ll definitely fish you out. And once I do, you’re dead. I swear with my life, I’ll kill you” I threatened and walked out on them.

Derek’s Pov:
I drove through the magic portal and found myself in a secluded area in the institute.
The white Diãmônds institute!!
Yes. I made it.
I stood up from the floor where I’d landed and looked around.
Just incase you’re wondering, I’m Derek, the guy sent by Mykel to get Cali.
Traveling through magic portals is a rare gift I posses. And as a matter of fact, I was the only one with such gift in the Black Diãmônd institute.
I could make portals to take me anywhere in the world without having to pass through the gate.
I held my bag properly and started walking.
I needed to acquire my target. The boss had only given me a short time. Where’s the banshee?

Cali’s Pov:
After eating with Miquel, I took my bath and while in the shower, I kept praying he doesn’t come in like he did last night.
I mean, it’s weird staying with a guy who could open locked doors even without touching them. I just feel like I’m completely vulnerable to him.
I successfully took my bath without any interruptions, dried my body with a towel and put on my clothes right there.
Perfect.
Then, I returned to the room and found him working on some papers.
I walked closer, but he didn’t lift his head to look at me.
“Um….I’ll be leaving now” I told him and he shot me a glance.
“Okay, then. Have a nice time” he said and focused on the papers.
What was he doing anyway?
I picked up my bag and left.

I got out of the apartment and started towards the lecture hall.
How would I be able to meet Nina and Diane? Could they be in the lecture hall already?
I sighed and continued walking anyway and decided to beguile the moment with blissful thoughts of Miquel and I.
I remembered how he k-ssed and touched me last night.
Gosh!! That guy was really a lover boy.
I could imagine how he’d be in…bed.
Oh! Cali!!! What am I even thinking?
Geez?!!
I smiled and just then, got stopped by a guy who stood in front of me.
Huh? Who’s he?
I looked at his hand and discovered he had so many tattoos on it.
But I was able to figure out a name from the tattoos:
“Derek”
“Do you need something?” I asked him since he was standing on my way.
