Chapter 11 – The Cousins (The 2nd Seat)
Stheno’s POV
I just listened quietly to what Professor Radagast was teaching. I am not next to Lizzy because Professor changed every position of his students today.
“You’ve been quiet there for a while, Stheno.” my cousin whispered to me.
I guess I forgot to say that I was next to my cousin so I did not speak. She is just annoying because he is too noisy, pretentious, and naughty oh, and also a spoiled brat.
“Talk to me cuz … they might think we don’t seem to be cousins.” she said and then pout like a dog.
It was so weird, I raised my hand to get Professor Radagast’s attention and he seemed to notice me immediately.
“What is that Ms. Stheno?” Professor asked.
“I would like to go to the restroom Professor, can I go out?” I will ask.
“Yes sure.” the smiling Professor said.
Lizzy must have noticed that I was not in the mood she would have stood up but I told her not to follow.
I was about to leave when I heard Atlas speak.
“Can I also go out Professor?” she asked Professor.
“Ahh — Sure, Ms. Diasspro.” Professor replied in surprise.
I hurried to walk out so that my good cousin would not chase me. I turned around and she followed me until we stopped at the schoolyard.
I turned to Atlas and stared at her angrily.
‘I’m annoyed with her spoiledness…’
“What is your problem with me and why are you following me Atlas?” disgusted I asked her.
She smiled and also stared at me wickedly.
“You know what I want, what my reason for following you… Stheno.” Atlas said seriously while smirking at me.
“What is it? What do you want?” I asked annoyed.
Her grin widened and she approached me.
“I want to get your seat in Elite 10.” she said seriously.
I never thought she would say that, I have been sitting in my seat in Elite 10 for a long time. I earned it with every blood, sweat, and tear.
“Give me a good reason so that I could do that.” I said while holding back my anger.
“We both know that I am stronger than you Stheno.” she said seriously and touched my cheek.
I smirked and stared her in the eye.
“And who said you were stronger than me Atlas?” I asked as I raised an eyebrow and smirked at her.
Her gaze got worse on me and she laughed out loud.
“Do you want us to make a duel now here to see who is stronger than the both of us?” she asked me.
“Why not? I’m already excited Atlas.” I said with a smirk.
She smiled and arranged her hair as well as her clothes.
“Get ready Stheno because I’m sure, your seat in Elite 10. will be mine.” she said and smirked.
We were about to fight when I heard someone call my name.
“STHENO!”
I turned to the one who called my name and there I saw Ash running towards me.
“Ash! What are you doing here?” I asked and worriedly stared at her.
“I just finished the activity we were doing when I peeked out the window and I noticed you were running towards the schoolyard so I hurried and I followed you.” Ashleigh explained.
She turned to Atlas.
“What are you looking at?” Atlas said snobbishly.
Ash just rolled her eyes and stared at me again.
“Let’s take you back to your room.” Ash offered that I immediately agreed.
But before I could get away I heard Atlas’ voice in my mind using Telepathy.
“I can get your seat soon, not now but next time… I will make sure I can get that soon.”
We were walking back to our classes when she suddenly asked.
“What was going on there earlier? It’s like you two will kill each other there in the schoolyard.”
“We were just having some misunderstanding.” I answered and smiled at her.
“Are you sure?” she asked again.
“Yes, Ahh of course, what is your next class?” I asked to avoid what we were talking about.
“I think Professor Evanor, Sun Magic Class.” she replied.
“Oh god! We’re the same class!” I said happily.
“Really? It’s good because I didn’t talk to anyone in our class earlier… then I even had an annoying seatmate next to me, he thought he was the best person in the world.” she explained and then frowned.
“Who are you fighting with?” I asked.
She looked up, she seemed to remember the name of her classmate who fought with her.
“I think… Calux? Yeah, Calux… that’s the name of my arrogant classmate.” the annoyance of what she was saying was obvious.
CALUX!
“Do you mean, Prince Calux Zephyr?” I asked in astonishment.
“Yes he is…” she replied.
“Calux is the best student here at Magica Academy, he is the one who is sitting in the first seat in Elite 10, and also he is also my cousin’s fiancé.” I explain.
“Ohh…”
She was silenced by what I said. When I reached my class, she returned to her class as well.
Ashleigh’s POV
‘That’s why they have such an attitude, they are fiancees.’
When I returned to my class I saw that Professor Lamia was already erasing what was written on the board earlier. Calux just leaned over the desk. I took a deep breath because it would no longer show elegance to me. We only have 5 minutes left …
“Okay Class Dismissed.”
When Professor Lamia said that, all the students immediately stood up, and I arranged my belongings. While arranging, suddenly someone whispered to me.
“See you later, Stupid.”
My temper suddenly worsened but I immediately calmed myself down and left the class, just in case Stheno was outside.
“Is Calux teasing you again?” she asked.
“No, he was just quiet when I arrived.” I lied.
When Professor Evanor came to class, I noticed that there were no students inside, only Stheno and me.
“Good morning girls.”
We both turned to the woman who spoke. It has yellow hair and it is long, the height is okay and she’s wearing a necklace with a sun pendant.
“Good morning Professor Evanor.” said Stheno while smiling.
“Oh, You have someone with you, who is she?” Professor asked.
“Ahh, My name is Ashleigh Jaime Nevrakis” I introduced myself.
“Oh you must be the girl that Professor Radagast talking about.” she said and smiled. “Welcome to my class.” she added.
“Thank you, Professor I just really wanted to know more about my magic.” I said.
“I see that you and Ms. Nevrakis already meet, Does she already know about you?” Professor asked.
‘What does Professor mean.’
“Not everything yet, Professor.” Stheno replied.
“Well then, before we start the class why don’t you start your introduction Stheno.” the smiling Professor said.
Stheno nodded and turned to face me.
“I’m Lady Stheno Enya from Lunaria… and I’m the one who’s sitting in the second seat of Elite 10.”NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
