THE SHE-DEVIL AND HER ALPHAS

Trevor was proudly wearing the pendant on his neck, he had to admit this was a masterpiece. He had caught some students staring at it secretly and even a girl had summoned the courage to ask where he had gotten it from ; today was perfect.

So lost was he in his fantasy that he was quite startled when a guy suddenly grabbed and dragged him towards a secluded corner of the hallway.

To others passing by, they looked like a pair of boys discussing secret business but Trevor knew how much he was struggling to be set free. Why was this guy so strong, he wasn't even that much taller than him?

"What the hell did I tell you newbies about revealing the pendant?!" The guy roared at him pushing him further into the wall.

"I don't know what you're talking about ! " Trevor denied his accusation, where did this nutcase come from?

"Don't you know that secrecy comes before anything else? " He still insisted and Trevor felt like banging his head against the wall.

How many times must he tell this nutcase that he had no clue what so ever he's talking about.

" What in the world - "

"This " The guy said and reached for the pendant on his neck, holding it out for him to see

"Why is this outside? Are you compromising your identity or.... " the boy suddenly trails off, eyes widening in surprise.

Trevor watched confused as he outlined the pendant with his hands, running his fingers all over it as if committing it to memory.

His eyes flickered over to Trevor and then to the pendant and to Trevor again, scrutinizing him intently. Curiosity gleaming in his eyes, he asked " You're a legacy? "

"L-legacy? "

" Ahh right , You don't know what that is yet " The boy realized he had rushed things. So he immediately put his hands in the pocket of his jeans and gave Trevor a black card of some sort.

Trevor reluctantly took it from him, staring at the black card cautiously. There was nothing written nor designed on it, just sheer piece of paper.

"What the heck is this? What do I do with this?" Trevor asked, hoping to God this guy wasn't playing a stupid prank on him.

"Once the clock strikes twelve at midnight, go to wherever this card leads you " The boy explained, eyes darting around warily.

He reached for the pendant and tucked it securely into Trevor's shirt while warning severely " Don't ever let anyone see that unless you want to jeopardize your life and the life of your family , understood? "

Trevor couldn't understand why or how but he found himself nodding his head. Though it sounds unreasonable but he somehow believed this guy wasn't joking around.

Having fulfilled his intention , the guy turned to leave but Trevor grabbed him on his sleeve.

"What? " He raised a brow at the sudden gesture

" Your name ? I don't know your name " Trevor asked, a bit breathless.

"Williams but they call me will " He introduced himself " Call me Will Cutter " Will added.

"Will Cutter " Trevor murmured absentmindedly.

He stared at Will, the boy had sandy blonde hair and was well-toned - an evidence of working out. No matter how much Trevor thought hard, he knew Williams definitely wasn't in his class, nobody there goes by that name.

"But you don't know mine " Trevor pointed out when he tried to leave hastily.

"Don't worry, I already know yours, Renard "

Will said with confidence and then walks away with much gusto while Trevor watched on, wondering what just happened?.

" Don't you have anything better to do? " Lia asked Ben who had joined them for lunch. Unknown to him, he was receiving glares from Dan's fans.

"What else do I have to do than to cleave to your side like an adhesive glue " came his reply as he stole some french fries from Dan's plate.

Dan gave him the evil eye

"What? " Ben snorted " You're not even getting any nourishment from it, why are you so stingy? " He complained.

Lia shook her head and carefully kept her meatloaf far away from Ben's reach , cause unlike Dan, she wasn't courteous enough with her food.

"You should be very careful from now on " Dan announced and her head jerked up. Was he speaking to Ben or her?

Lia touched her chest " Are you referring to me or him? " She gestures towards Ben.

"I mean the both of you but you, Lia in particular " Dan explained, pointing at her with his middle finger " Cause I'm super sure Raphael would come for you "

Lia's brow drew together " Who's Raphael?"

Dan dropped the bombshell " Asher's half brother "

Ben choked on his drink while her spoon clattered to the ground drawing attention from students.

"Asher has a brother? " Ben and Lia asked at same time albeit realizing too late they were a bit loud.

So they waited for a while, for the student's curious gazes to look away. After the students had turned away from them,Lia leaned towards Dan.

"Asher has a brother? " Lia asked, bringing her voice down to a whisper "He never told me anything about that "

"Yep, he's harbouring a mischievous and dangerous half brother " Dan disclosed the information .

" Harbouring as in.... ? " Dan probed

"Like housing him , so you shouldn't come over during this period unless you want to end up as his meal " Dan warned Ben who was prone to visit the mansion out of nowhere.

Lia wrapped her arms across her chest and leaned into her seat asking " I don't understand? how did a half brother pop out of nowhere and why do I need to be wary of him?"

Suddenly Ben's eyes lit up " Oh I know about that, Asher's -"

" Shut up " Dan interrupted.

Ben pouted his lips " But I said it - "

"Don't make me get into your head, it can get quite messy " Dan threatened Ben which was quite effective cause his mouth helplessly shut at once.

"Raphael and Asher share a mother " Dan concluded subtly.

Lia's eyes flickered between Ben and Dan, why did she feel they were hiding something from her.

"Umm, that's all? " She asked, a hint of skepticism in her eyes " Cause if I can remember correctly, Ben here was about to tell me something interesting "

But Dan remained mum

"Fine then " Lia concluded and then turned to face Ben who obviously was not looking her in the eye, he was avoiding her gaze.

Which proved the fact Ben was keeping something from her, though they've being with each other for a few weeks now but she knows him like the back of her hand.

"Ben " She called and felt him shiver but still didn't respond nor give her an answer. So she went on " Whose sidekick are you? "

Ben was struggling internally, he was between the Devil and the deep blue sea.

On his side, sat the unruffled Dan who had already made his threat known and though the vampire seems quiet and gentle, he knew it was just a facade - he would torture him afterwards.

Yet on his other side, sat the little devil who was staring at him with her magenta coloured evil eyes and lips that spoke of punishments to come.

What did he do to deserve this?
