As he watched her sprint away, a sly grin spread across Zane’s face. In the past, seeing other women drool over him made

him feel sick.

But now, seeing Elysia do the same, he actually felt good. He even felt nice to be wanted.

Alice saw Zane’s sudden smile and was shocked like she’d seen a ghost. She thought, ‘Isn’t Zane always stone–faced? What’s with this smile?”

On the way back, she let out a long sigh, thinking the car was finally going at a normal speed.

Earlier, it was like a snail’s crawl. But she didn’t dare ask, afraid Elysia would think Zane was driving slowly on purpose, not wanting to take her home.

After Elysia got home, she took a cold shower to calm down. She kept reminding herself in her head not to get lost in

Emma was in a great mood today. She just heard that Elysia fell asleep during the Language and Composition test. If Elysia could sleep during a test where points were easy to score, it showed how bad she really was.

Emma figured if Elysia bombed Language and Composition, her other subjects couldn’t be much better. The chance to show Elysia up she’d been waiting for was finally coming, and she was happy about it.

Elysia changed into her pajamas and planned to type up the manuscript she’d been writing. She started writing just for fun, but then she got more and more into it. So she wrote a little every day and had a bunch of words now.

After copying all her handwritten notes to the computer, it was one in the morning. She found a website, made an account. and picked the pen name “Nightwood.” Then she posted her story in chapters and went to bed.
