Melanie cheerfully led the three to the sofa while Enzo placed some cookies and drinks on the coffee table. As they all conversed on various subjects, Melanie asked Alina to be her friend before eventually bringing the conversation back to Jason.
"So, Alina. I was wondering … could you introduce me to your brother?" she asked.
"I- what?" Alina was caught off-guard by the question.
"Well, I mean we did meet, but I didn't get to talk to him. And seeing that we're friends and all…"
"You just became my friend to get into his pants…" Alina replied mechanically.
"Yep," Melanie responded quickly. "I mean, I do want to be friends with you but if I can get your brother ... Well, then that's two birds with one stone. Besides, something tells me you won't disagree."
"Oh, why's that?" asked Alina, annoyed at the conversation. She didn't understand why Melanie was so confident, especially since this was their first meeting.
"Because I'm a college student? That makes me older than most of your friends." Melanie paused and looked at Alina, waiting for her to process this tidbit.
"You're ... older than us?" Alina asked in stupified shock.
"Yep, I'm 22 this year!" Melanie replied sweetly while beaming.
Fuck, talk about real-life legal jailbait, Alina cursed in her mind. But that's sorta creepy...
"And if he gets it with me, the girls won't chase after him," continued Melanie slyly. "Plus, I know him. The real him."
Alina turned to look at her sharply with narrowed eyes while Melanie continued smiling while sipping her coffee. She could tell that while this student president had a sweet and innocent look, she was actually sly and foxy.
Damn it all, Thought Alina. I can't see through her! What is she scheming? How much does she know?
"I'll … think about it..." Alina said warily after a while.
"Great! How about we get together to go shopping this weekend? I know an amazing place that sells the cutest clothes ever!" Melanie said as she beamed.

After Alina, Asami, and Michelle left, the room was deadly silent as Melanie stopped smiling, her brows furrowed as she contemplated something.
"President, I don't like this. Why must we be so polite and nice?" Enzo asked as he wiped his glasses. Melanie scowled at him before scoffing.
"Don't be stupid. Why make an enemy when you can be friends instead," she replied while sighing.
"You really need to stop being so arrogant. Besides, I don't like this assignment that the directors gave. They're stupidly trying to aggravate him."
"Well, well. You have both beauty and brains. A woman after my heart," a husky voice sounded out, causing the members of the student council to jump up defensively. Leaning on a wall was a man with short messy hair and a sheepish smile on his face while he lazily sipped some coffee from a cup. His dress shirt was half-stuffed into his pants while the sleeves of his shirt were rolled up. He also had three buttons undone, giving everyone a peek at his chest. This messy careless look only served to accentuate his devilishly rogue attitude.
"Mr. Sage! I … I wasn't aware that -" Melanie stuttered wondering when he arrived.
"Please, it's Jason. Especially to a beautiful girl like you. And I've been here for a while," Jason said while swirling the cup in his hand. "I must say though, I was flattered that you wanted to meet me so badly."
"I- "
"We can discuss a date later on. What I'm more interested in is what you know about me. The real me." Jason emphasized the last sentence while slowly walking towards Melanie.
"Please keep you-" Olivia tried stepping forward to stop him when Jason released his killing aura.
A stifling presence descended on the room, paralyzing everyone with its pressure. The heaviness penetrated their chests, restricting their breathing as their sights slowly dimmed. The metallic scent of blood flooded their senses almost drowning them as the figure of Jason slowly walked onwards.
Unlike Olivia and Enzo who were nearly collapsing from the pressure, Melanie, who was blushing with flushed cheeks, tried to control her breathing as she looked at Jason approaching her. Her heart was pounding when she made eye contact with those soul-devouring eyes; Jason's aura had the complete opposite effect on her, arousing her instead of immobilizing her.
"Tell me," he whispered as he slowly lifted her chin with one hand, his lips almost touching hers. "What is the real me? My real name?"
Melanie leaned forward trying to kiss him but Jason stopped her with a finger, slowly tracing her lips with it before gently stroking her cheeks.
"Tell me first," he breathed, his voice nearly causing her to faint.
"Fenrir," Melanie moaned. "The Wolf."
"That's right. What a clever girl. Here's a reward," he murmured before kissing her.
His lips locked with hers as his tongue slowly flickered across her lips before forcing itself into her mouth. Melanie was unable to respond as a shock ran through her shuddering body stimulating her sexually. With a scream muffled by his kiss, she climaxed, her shivering legs forcing her to collapse into Jason's arm.
Pulling away, Jason slowly laid her back into her chair while she gasped for air, her sight blurry while her legs squirmed, trying to hide the mess in between. Jason, on the other hand, stopped applying his aura on the other two, allowing them to breathe again as they fell to their knees.
"I like you," he said, his eyes not leaving Melanie's. "You knew I was close by, listening to you. You also knew my true identity but you didn't share it with those idiots. You wanted me to show my prowess, you wanted them to fear me."
"Yes," Melanie gasped for breath as she looked at Jason. "They've been complacent for too long, interfering in school affairs however they like and disrespecting Ms. Graves for far longer."
"Mmm," Jason hummed while looking out the window beside him before turning back to her. "An agent of the Council? You're an executioner… no, no. You're their hidden blade. Their Viper. Or rather, a Viperess. Fascinating."
His quiet voice was heard only by Melanie as he leaned forward to brush his lips against hers once more before he calmly walked out of the room, leaving everyone stunned. Melanie sat up straight, trying to calm herself before turning to Olivia.
"Tell the Board of Directors what happened here and make sure to tell them that he's Fenrir, they should know what that means. Also, make it clear that they stop interfering with the school. Do it after he's done demonstrating to them," Melanie instructed her while hiding her smile.
Mmm, what a delicious man, thought Melanie as she slowly licked her lips, an intoxicating look in her eyes. This place is finally starting to spice up.
