When They Beg, I Rise!

Lemira's thoughts drifted to Dorian Draven, a toff from Wye, the new heartthrob at school who had transferred from Orvin High. Word around was that he had stirred up some trouble at his old school and was laying low here for a while.

Dorian was anything but low-key, though. He drove a fancy sports car, wore designer clothes, and was a hardcore gamer.

Back in her past life, after Evelina took the crown from her in a competition, Dorian had pursued Evelina, and they ended up together.

Lemira chuckled to herself and shoved the love letter into her desk without even bothering to open it. She didn't even mention anything about exchanging contact information. Evelina was green with envy, "Lemmy, why don't you just open it and see?"

"It's not like I haven't gotten one before."

Back when she used to receive love letters, it was in elementary school, before her parents had the accident, and before Evelina had even entered her world.

Evelina felt a pang of discomfort. What was there to be so smug about? Evelina's eyes darkened with resentment.

After all the efforts to bring Lemira down, how had she suddenly changed so much? Was she actually trying to steal Dorian away?

After school, Lemira just packed her bag and left. Evelina lingered for a while, and then went over to Lemira's desk and took all the love letters.

Lemira headed straight for the infirmary.
