𝐂𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐄 𝐍𝐘𝐗 𝐊𝐍𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 is the one who leaves people - the people 𝑑𝑜𝑛'𝑡 leave her. She was a powerful personality with fake persons surrounding her. They wanted only one thing from her - a share of her power.
So when she met a man who didn't intend to use her, she made him her friend. And his personality eventually won her heart. But now as she stared at him with anger dancing in her eyes, she felt more betrayed than ever. The insecurity she had tried to bury inside of her resurfaced and she clenched her fists. How the fuck that stupid, 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑡ℎ𝑙𝑒𝑠𝑠 bitch dare to sit beside her man? Doesn't she know to 𝒏𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 mess with Nyx?!
All the eyes were on her, including his, and she could see the fear in Astrid's eyes as she glared at her. The professor had stopped with his lecture and waited for the 𝐐𝐮𝐞𝐞𝐧 to take a seat for him to proceed. She was, after all, powerful enough to take away his job in a matter of 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑑𝑠.
She maintained her calm as she made her way to the class and took a seat beside him. It was an unspoken rule between them - they would always reserve the seat for the other. She ignored him, trying to focus on the class going on. Business studies were surely interesting and thankfully, she had gained her business mind from her father and her creativity from her mother.
She was saving money to start her own fashion empire one day. Her hard work was surely paying off, and she could 𝑎𝑙𝑚𝑜𝑠𝑡 taste her victory.
She felt someone nudge her, but she ignored it, knowing that it was Zion. The guy didn't know that the Astrid 𝑠ℎ𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑 was the Astrid sitting next to him, but him even thinking to share their space with someone else irritated her.
As soon as the class finished, the Queen made her way to the next one but only to be pulled away by a muscular arm.
"What the hell, Lessie? Why are you ignoring me?" Zion asks.
She folded her arms and stared at him with anger.
"Why were your getting cozy with 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑔𝑖𝑟𝑙?" she snapped at him.
She watched as a grin formed on his face, which further irritated her since that meant that he was enjoying teasing her. He pulled her closer, holding her by her waist, and whispered in her ears.
"𝐴𝑟𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑗𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑜𝑢𝑠, 𝑠𝑢𝑛𝑠ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑒?" he said.
Nyx rolled her eyes. 𝑂𝑓 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠𝑒, he would say that.
"Yes, Zion. I am jealous of the attention you were giving to her. What will you do if the smiles I reserved for you were given to someone else by me?" she snapped at him.
He chuckled, making her angrier. It felt like he was really enjoying her feel insecure.
"You have nothing to worry about, sunshine. You are the only woman I care about the most after my mother. No one can ever replace your position in my heart. And as for that girl, she is new, so I thought to show her around." he replied.
"When did the bad boy care about showing the college off to the girls?" she asked.
There was something fishy here, something he wasn't telling her. And that scared Nyx because there used to be 𝑛𝑜 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑠 𝑏𝑒𝑡𝑤𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑚. She couldn't force him to tell her because she was hiding two herself - the fact that she was in love with him and that she was fucking Jason behind his back. Not that they were in a relationship.
"I didn't. I took pity on her, that's it," he replied.
Nyx knew it was no use in protesting. He will tell her what happened when he needs to.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐀𝐅𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐀 𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐃 as soon as Nyx and Zion stepped inside of it. All the attention was on them, and they ensured that they left their table free and clean. They had staked their ownership on the place since the day they arrived; they were the 𝒑𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒑𝒍𝒆, and no one dared to mess with them.
It was known all over the campus they were fantastic friends, but some claimed that they were, in fact, dating. And why not? Both of them looked absolutely 𝑠𝑡𝑢𝑛𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 in their own ways - they were a match made in ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑣𝑒𝑛. But no one dared to question them.
Girls admired Zion as he walked past them, some looking 𝑠𝑒𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑙𝑦 at him. Boys dropped their jaws on the ground as soon as their eyes landed on Nyx. It was a 𝑢𝑠𝑢𝑎𝑙 day on the campus.
Nyx sat on the seat as Zion took his place next to her. They didn't care about the stares they were getting and the whispers that surrounded them - it was the same every day.
"Buy me a burger, please. And some fries too - I am starving." Nyx said.
Zion said nothing, he just nodded and left.
Nyx took out her phone from her Chanel bag and was about to distract herself with it until a rude voice which she absolutely despised interrupted her thoughts.
"Look who we have here? The 𝑓𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑛 Queen, Celeste Nyx Knight. How are you, 𝑑𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑔?" the voice said.
Nyx wanted to ignore the voice, but something in her mind snapped when she heard the term 'fallen'. Nyx is anything but 𝑓𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑛.
It was time to put some people into their places. No one 𝑑𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑠 to question ℎ𝑒𝑟 crown. No one dares to challenge the queen.
Nyx put a smirk on her face as she turned to face the stupid girl whose life she is going to ruin in a matter of seconds.
"Did you not get laid last night, Clara Tia Pattison?" she said.
𝑺𝒉𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒈𝒐𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒆𝒏𝒋𝒐𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔.
