KINGSLEY'S POV

I saw his hand close around her throat before my brain fully processed what I was looking at.

Everything after that happened too fast and too slow at the same time. George was already moving, and I was right behind him, shoving through the crowd like they were nothing but air. By the time we reached them, Summer's face had gone the wrong color, her fingers clawing uselessly at Roberts' wrist.

    SUMMER'S POV.The rest of the day went by so fast. George and Felix took Clyde out to relieve his tension. I and Kingsley decided to go over to his house to see his mother and also practice for the Orientation Showcase."Summer!" Eleanor said immediately she saw me. She was very excited. She now looks agile unlike the last time we met at the hospital. She pulled me into a big, tight hug. "How are you?""I'm very fine." I smiled. " How are you too? You now look better than before.""No more tension again." She smiled. "I hope you gave what I said a thought?" She held me hands and patted it gently. Kingsley's eyes went back and forth. I simply nodded. "I will leave you two to talk." She said and went back to the kitchen. I and Kingsley then went upstairs."Come in." Kingsley signalled to me, to enter his room like it was my first time.Nothing really changed. It was still the same as the night he saved me. I sat down on the chair close the his bed.Kingsley sat on his bed, picked up hi

    KINGSLEY'S POV I saw his hand close around her throat before my brain fully processed what I was looking at. Everything after that happened too fast and too slow at the same time. George was already moving, and I was right behind him, shoving through the crowd like they were nothing but air. By the time we reached them, Summer's face had gone the wrong color, her fingers clawing uselessly at Roberts' wrist. I didn't think. I just swung. My fist connected with his jaw hard enough to send him stumbling back, his grip finally tearing loose from Summer's throat. He hit the floor a few feet away, sprawled against an overturned chair, blood already welling at the corner of his mouth. Dira stood frozen for exactly one second before she turned and bolted, disappearing through the crowd and out the front doors like the building had caught fire. "Summe

    SUMMER'S POVI didn't go home.Instead I stood outside the club for a long moment, thumb hovering over my phone, before I typed out a quick message to Felix. He was my only resort. George and Kingsley won't let me be, until I tell them where I am: " I will be out for a while. Won't be back till midnight. But I'm fine."It wasn't entirely a lie. I wasn't fine, not really, but I wasn't in immediate danger either, and that felt close enough to the truth to send.The campus was nearly empty when I got there — weekend quiet, the kind of stillness I hadn't realized I needed until I was standing in the middle of it. No lecture halls buzzing, no crowds cutting across the quad. Just wind moving through empty benches and the distant sound of a sprinkler system somewhere I couldn't see.I found myself walking toward the library without fully deciding to.Inside, the archive section sat tucked away in the back corner, rows of bound yearbooks stretching back decades, dust thick enough to taste. I

    SUMMER'S POVI didn't tell anyone I was leaving.Not Kingsley, still asleep with Clyde curled up somewhere in his room. Not George, snoring on the couch with the ledger still clutched against his chest like it might grow legs and walk off. Not even Felix, who'd apparently want to rigg some kind of tracker for me that I hadn't agreed to wear yet. I just grabbed my coat, slipped out the back door, and let the cold morning air clear my head enough to think straight.The club looked different in daylight — smaller, almost pitiful, its neon sign dark and lifeless against the gray sky. I hadn't slept. My whole body ran on nothing but adrenaline and a single, burning question: why me? PplThe door was unlocked when I got there, which should have told me something."Summer." Mr. Roberts' voice reached me before I'd even fully stepped inside, smooth and unbothered, like he'd been sitting there waiting for hours. He was seated at his usual booth near the back, a glass of something amber in fro

    KINGSLEY'S POV.Since George decided it was time for an healthy talk and everything that Summer had said, tonight made me highly furious."The video." I said, clenching my jaws in anger."What video?" Summer asked me leaning forward."While I went to the building. I saw a video playing in the screen in the third room." I slowly said. "It was you. All of the club activities that you did." I brought out my phone I played the ones I was able to record."I also received the same thing." I heard Clyde's hoarse voice. We all slowly looked up to him. He was standing at the door entrance, looking so tired."What are you doing here?" Summer questioned him, concern evident in her voice. "You need to rest, go back." She urged him."I'm fine now, Summer." He told her, walked in and sat down. "I also received the video, while I was at Gabrielle's house." His attention shifted to me. "That's was why I was at the building.""What did you see there?" George ask him."Just a clear warning written on t

    SUMMER'S POV."What do you mean by that?" George said as he brought the drive to a sudden halt."Can we not do this now?" I said nervously."Do not say that!" George said, already getting irritated. "When were you going to tell us about it?"Kingsley just sat down, hand akimbo, not caring about the fire he just started."I promise you, but it is more complicated than you think." I told them."Complicated, huh? It is really really complicated." Kingsley said sarcastically."It's one in the morning," Felix mumbled from the back seat, barely awake. "Can we please have this conversation when we're actually home?""This conversation is not close to being over." George said, turned back and begin to drive again. I just sighed in partial relief. This was definitely not over.----The drive to my home was full of silence. Not one said anything to another. We finally arrived at my house. "I would go in, now. Thanks for the drive and the concern." I said and walked in."I'll follow you." Geor

    SUMMER'S POV I slowly woke up, also trying to fight the throbbing headache I was feeling. "Where the hell am I?" I thought. The place smelt like woods mixed with cigarettes, and another thing that smelt like lavender. "What a weird combination." I thought. I woke up fully, and observed where I w

    SUMMER'S POV I arrived at the club very late. I knew I was going to be scolded by Mr Noel, the club manager, but I cared less. Life was already hard enough for me. I clutched my bag, so tightly like my depended on it. Because my life really depended on it. I walked in, slowly. The club reeked
