MEILIN’S REBORN (Battle Of The Heart And Throne)

CHAPTER 20



Nevaeh waved as Angie left her to go meet his friends, she smiled and turned around, searching for Gianna with her eyes.

Finally she found her sitting alone on a long bench, smiling as she watched the boys do their workout.

Nevaeh jogged over to sit beside her.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“Anna” she called but Gianna didn’t answer, she was busy looking at God knows what.

Nevaeh twitched her lips and traced her eyes then found that she was watching Zachary using the treadmill.

“Seriously” Nevaeh sighed and Gianna looked at her with a scoff.

“Thought you already have a new best friend” she said jealously.

“Are you jealous of Angie?” Nevaeh asked with a smile.

“No”

“Yes you are, you’re jealous”

“I’m not!!”

“Jealousy” Nevaeh poked her cheeks and Gianna slapped her hands off.

“Alright let’s leave that, I saw you looking at that scary devil just now” Nevaeh said, referring to Zachary who continued running.

“Hmm, he’s doing it so fast,” she replied, pointing at his treadmill, then she looked at Nevaeh.

“Why call him a devil?” She asked.

“Because anytime he looks at me, it looks like he’s planning to kill me,” Nevaeh replied and Gianna laughed.

“It’s too much comics and anime that caused this” she chuckled and stood up.

“Wanna work out too, let’s go show that guy that we are also strong” she said.

“Speaking for yourself?” Nevaeh smirked and Gianna removed her singlet.

She was left with her sports bra, Joggers and her sports canvas.

Her waist was so tiny and small.

“I’m going to lift the weight ” she said and went to where the weights were kept.

She laid on the bench and breathed before placing her hands on the weight.

She tried lifting it but it didn’t move.

She bit her lips and added more effort but nothing.

Someone came to use the bench beside her and it was none other than Angie.

He took the other weight carrier and began lifting it, steady by steady.

“Show off” she said in her mind.

“You know, try going for the smaller ones first,” he said.

Gianna didn’t reply to him ; she kept trying to lift the big weight.

“Just give it up, only strong guys like me can make use of that” he smirked.

She glared at him and stood up then walked to the yoga mat.

He followed her there.

“Can’t I do yoga in peace!!” She snapped.

“You can, I just need to know why you’re angry with me. I thought you were a nice person. I mean you were the first person to talk to me” he replied.

“I might be nice but I get jealous, I’ll keep getting mad at you until you fail a question” she replied and left the mat then went to the trade mil.

The moment she stepped there Zachary looked at her and faced his front.

“Hi” she waved but no reply.

“Hey, remember me?” She asked, still no reply.

“Remember that girl you caught when she was about to fall from the staircase?” She asked again but still no reply.

“Huh?, Don’t you talk or are you… Are you dumb?” She asked.

Zachary stopped the machine and looked at her in anger.

“Stop talking to me” he replied and stepped out of it.

“That was rude!!” She scoffed and turned on her machine then began running.

Angie creased his brows from where he was watching, he purposely didn’t go in there because he wanted to see Zachary’s reaction.

But Zachary’s reaction was normal, it was as if he didn’t know she was the chosen one.

“Maybe he isn’t supernatural like I thought but my guts keeps telling me that he’s strange, if he was a demon supernatural then I should have heard of him but I haven’t, just who is he?” He thought.

His thoughts got interrupted when someone pushed him from behind.

It was none other than Jett, he was looking at him with a glare.

“What do you want?” Angie asked.

“Heard you are more handsome than me” Jett replied.

“Am I not?” Angie asked and Jett crossed his arms.

“Not even a little,” he replied.

“Alright then, argue with your mirror” Angie shrugged and walked past him, knowingly bumping shoulders with him.

Jett staggered as a result and Angie smirked.

*It looks like I didn’t add enough spice in your water* he said in his mind.

The gym was already over, the boys were all in the locker room except for Zachary.

He was sitting on the stool outside the gym and going through his book.

He chose to use the locker room when all the guys are cleared because he doesn’t like noises on the norm.

“I’m getting really impatient, how can I get that girl to be alone with me?” He asked.

The book opened.

~You can brainwash and make her follow you~

“And if I kill her, how would I know if she’s the one?” He asked.

~ you’ll feel the sign when that happens~

Gianna who was just coming out of the female locker room paused and rubbed her eyes.

She’s not seeing double right, that book is opening by itself.

She immediately rushed over to him and he closed the book immediately.

“I saw what your book just did, can I borrow it?” She asked and before he could reply, she snatched it from him.

She read the book title and looked at him.

“How to behave like a human, really?” She asked.

Zachary stood up and collected it from her but she moved her hands.

“What kind of genre is this?” She asked, going through it.

He made his eyes change to blue as he stared at her.

“Give it” he commanded and she stared at his face blankly.

“Something is wrong with your eyes, it’s blue” she replied and he blinked.

*She’s not afraid* he thought.

It was the eyes he used to look at people that made them shudder in fear, but this shorty here is actually not afraid.

“Give me the book” he frowned.

“No” she raised her hands up.

“I’ll give it to you if you answer my questions,” she replied.

Zachary stared at her from head to toes, is she racing her hands up for him not to take his book??

That shorthand??

“I think I’m the one wasting time” he muttered and his eyes almost began changing to red.

“Zach!!” Someone called and he immediately stopped.

He turned back to see Colton coming.

“You’re still out here won’t you change?” He asked.

Zachary faced his front back but Gianna had already ran away with his book.

“Damnit!” He cursed.

He should have killed her but he was wasting time or waiting, he was not it was Colton that caused it.

“The locker room is free, I’ll have a shower now if I were you because you can only get water at the male’s bathroom the water supply in the hostels has been locked” Colton said.

“I’ve heard you” Zachary replied and Colton nodded then left.

Zachary looked around but that human girl was nowhere to be found.

“That short earthling, when I see you next time I’ll kill you but you’re not my target for now” he muttered then looked left and right if anyone was looking.

When he didn’t see anyone, he disappeared.

Angie became invisible immediately.

He made himself invisible so he could follow Zachary around and he heard Zachary talking about killing the chosen one.

What is bugging him now is that Zachary does not know that Gianna is the chosen one, he thinks she’s someone else but who??

“I have to find out before he turns this Earth into something else but where did he   come from exactly?” He asked himself then looked left and right.

Seeing that no one was watching, he disappeared.
