Chapter 15
The New Neighbour:
The four remaining guys didn’t seem to harken to her warnings, they rushed towards her at once.
No one dares disgrace or beat up one of them and goes scott free.
“Move back a bit.” Elena told the guy with her who quickly did as she told him before she got surrounded by the four guys.
“You shouldn’t have interfered with our issues, new girl, by the time we are done with you, you will learn how to mind your business. And after this, more is still coming your way,” The leader said.
“I heard enough of that already, why don’t we just get the action going,” Elena said and use her left arm to prevent a fist which was coming from behind. Twisting the guys hand hard, he rolled in the air and landed on the ground with a loud thud. His hand got broken from the fall.
One down, three more to go. Elena thought as she went into her fighting mode.
The remaining three didn’t seem to be unfazed about their broken friend’s hand, they attacked the new student at once.
Elena saw that the three remaining guys are highly skilled with Kung fu, and it took a little while before she brought them down. She tried not to use her main strength to overpowered the guys.
The fight was over quickly and Elena was left with five groaning guys on the ground with either a broken hand, leg or nose.
All the students who had video the whole fight were surprised when they saw the five guys who had been bullying some of them in school and on the road on the ground.
The videos will circulate around the whole school of how they were beaten by the new comer.
“Thank you for saving me Ena,” The guy she had saved said behind her as Eva walked towards them.
“Don’t say that, someone also once did the same to me and I can only repay him back by stopping bullying from taking place.” Elena told him. “And how do you know my name is Ena?” She asked him, staring at the place she saw Damien stood a while ago when she fought with the guys, he wasn’t there and when she turned to look at where his Bugatti was parked, it wasn’t there either. He had left.
Where had he gone too? I thought he would still be here and let me flex my muscles a little so that he would see that I am not a weakling. Had I been so engrossed in my fighting that I didn’t even hear the sound of his car leaving the school premises? What has gotten into me to be bothered if he is here or not.
Elena thought to herself.
“Who wouldn’t know the name of the beautiful girl with purple hair.” The guy said and grimaced in pain holding his lower abdomen.
“You should go and see the school nurse before your bruises get infected or worse.” Elena told him concerned. “By the way, what’s your name?”
“I am Dave,” The guy who introduced his name as Dave said, holding his abdomen more tightly. “I think I will go and see the school nurse right away, thanks once again for saving my ass, I hope to see you again Ena.” He said and walked away slowly, ignoring the looks he was receiving.
Eva finally reached her sister’s side, using her two hands to hold Elena’s head and bring it lower to her head level. “Elena what if what you just display now brought the attention of the assassin to us, you could get us killed or rather put us in danger.” Eva whispered to her, to the students still watching, they thought Eva was calming her sister down.
“Shit! I had forgotten and the students had recorded it,” Elena said as she realised the gravity of what she had done. “We need a plan.”
“If the plan doesn’t involve smashing their phones, count me out.”
“We can not do that to them, it’s their phones and some of their memories they had might be in their phones. We are not doing that.”
“Father can get them all a new phone each. I had to hold myself from joining you kick their asses because they would wonder how two sisters could fight. You see the difference between I and you Elena, I use my head to think and water my ground before walking on it unlike you who jump without thinking. You get yourself into this mess. Don’t be surprised when father sees the video by tomorrow.” Eva told her. “First you had us moved from my perfect beautiful life into this godforsaken ugly town and made me hide behind my shadow, and now this. You have to clean up your mess Elena.” She added and kissed Elena’s forehead before removing her hand from her sister’s head and sending a smile to the onlookers.
Her sister is right, at times she speaks as if she was the older person and I am the younger one. I shouldn’t have helped that boy or could have gone when they asked me not to mend with their affairs. But if I hadn’t stepped in at that time, they would have gravely injured Dave. Now, how do I clean up my mess I created?
At that moment, Jess drove inside the school compound and stopped right beside where she saw her two nieces, making sure she didn’t climb on any of the five boys she saw on the ground groaning in pain. She was surprised to see almost all the students outside. Without wasting much time, Elena and Eva entered the Lamborghini.
Reversing the car, Jess drove out of the school.
“Did something happen in school today Elena? And why are those boys all on the ground groaning in pain?” Jess asked once they hit the road.
“I stopped them from bullying a student and fought them off.” Elena answered truthfully.
“And not to forget that all the students back there have their phone video, recording her fight. And not to mention again that most of them might be on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube. The video will go viral.” Eva chips in.
“Did you realise what you have done Elena?”
“Yes I do, you don’t need to lecture me here aunt, Eva has done your job for me and I have realised my mistake,” Elena said admitting to her mistake.
“Then if you know all these why did you fight them when you know they will video it?” Jess exclaimed loudly.
“At least I should be getting a thank you from you for saving a student from going into depression and here you are scolding me.”
“Is not that I don’t like the way you stood up for the boy, what I am saying is that it was a wrong timing you did. It shouldn’t be at the school.”
“I am sorry aunt.” Elena apologized.
Jess breathed in to calm her inner self down when a strange familiar scent filled her nostrils. The scent was coming from Elena strongly.
“Who did you meet Elena?”
“Jezz why are you asking me all the questions, have you forgotten that Eva too attended the school with me?” Elena said huffing out in annoyance.
“Did you meet anyone who appears strange today Elena? Just answer me.” Jess repeated her questions.
“No I didn’t. I fought with those guys up close, so I don’t get why this strange question aunt.”
If her calculations are right and the scent she just perceives is true, then Elena met with a Demon today in her school. Her question is, who could be the Demon and why will his scent be all over her niece.
Jess thought silently, she had to find out who the Demon is and what exactly did he want. Her major priority is to make sure her two nieces are saved, especially Elena until the Princess killer is caught even if it means fishing out the Demon and having him killed.
“So aunt what is the name of this boring town anyway?” Eva asked.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“This boring town as you had called it is known as Lowa town and a perfect place for you girls to hide.” Jess replied driving into her house compound which has no gate.
Getting out of the car, they started to head inside.
At that same moment, a black Bugatti drove into the next compound and Julian stepped out.
The girls eyes went wide in shock when they beheld Julian. He was like Adonis from Greek gods. He was breathtakingly handsome.
He was looking at the bungalow and cursing under his breath as he regarded the building.
“Aunt who is he?” Eva asked, falling in love with the strange new guy immediately.
“He is our neighbour, I was informed by the owners of the house that they had sold the property to someone else who will be coming soon, I never expected to see such a young man who by his car standard would go for this house.” Jess replied.
It was as if the new neighbour heard her because he turned his face to their direction.
Julian heard it, he was shown another picture of a beautiful house and not this ugly duckling he is facing.
“He is looking at us.” Eva whispered as she felt her heart beating faster when Julian’s eyes rested on her, trying to see the face behind the mask.
“Yeah I noticed.” Elena said not moved by his handsomeness, someone already has taken over that position since. Though she wouldn’t deny the fact that their new neighbour was handsome, over handsome that he looks like a fairytale Prince, but he is not her beautiful Damien.
Julian couldn’t take his eyes off Elena when he heard her voice. Two beautiful girls standing right in front of him even though one was wearing a mask.
“I call dibs on him.” Eva said, suddenly wishing to remove her mask and let him see how beautiful she is, more than her elder sister.
“What?”
“I said I saw him first, you have Damien right? Let me have this one. So choose between him and Damien which one of them you want sis?”
