The blaring sound of an alarm penetrated deep into my sleep and forced me awake.
"Oh God!
I groaned, my voice raspy as I blinked my eyes open.
I stared at the fancy ceiling and let my gaze linger there for a moment before rolling my eyes taking in the room around me. I didn't even bother to check if my roommates were awake already.
" Wait, where is that damn alarm blaring from?" I mumbled and raise my body from the bed to sit up, when a voice cut through the air.
"Good morning, dear friend. And the damn alarm is owned." Emily said.by the school.
I whipped my neck to the direction of the sound of her voice.
No wonder she heard what I mumbled to myself. She had been standing beside the bunk before I woke up.
"Good morning to you too. And thanks for the answer." I uttered and placed my hands on my face.
I felt a tap on my body and sluggishly opened my eyes.
It was Emily.
"What is it?" Today is Saturday, so allow me to enjoy my sleep." I said.
Emily gave a short laugh.
I stared at her and noticed she's already full dressed up like somebody going for sport events.
"Well...sorry to disappoint you. Saturday is for sports. Have you forgotten? She said as I yawned and stretched on the bed.
Damn it!
I quickly rose up and climbed down from the bunk.
I remember we were told there would be punishment for late comers.
After putting on the dashing School Sport wear, which was a white high-waisted short and blue jersey. I went for my blue ankle socks and white sneakers, then brushed my dark hair in front of the standing mirror in the room.
"Wow! I admired you." Emily said.
I gave her the cute smile of mine.
I knew I am a well-endowed girl. My waist was slim and narrowed down to my big butts
And this short wasn't helping matters, either. The worst is our uniform— white knee-length high-waisted skirt and a blue short sleeve top. The knee-length high-waisted skirt made my boots more attractive.
After primping myself up. Emily and I sauntered out of the room in our matching sportswear.

As we were approaching the field, everywhere was already filled with students, and it seems they were already grouped for the sports activities.
I can see each of the groups with a coach of their own.
"Great, you have already made us came late." Emily said and gave a fake frown.
"I am sorry babe! I quickly apologized before we reached the middle of the field.
Immediately we stepped our feet on the field. All eyes were on us.
What am I saying? A larger percentage of them were staring at me.
I was careful in walking, having my eyes glued to the floor.
"Stop there!" A voice commanded.
My heart skipped a beat, maybe of fear.
We both stood still. I looked up nd my gaze met with that of Leo's in the company of his friends.
"Go and stand in front of alpha Leo." Another voice commanded.
Oh God!
I could hear Emily breathing heavily.
I gave a deep sigh. If not that I forget about it, I wouldn't be in this mess, and I had to drag my innocent friend into it.
We both moved and stood in front of Leo.
"Do you two have brain at all?" One of his friends asked.
"Answer me! The same voice barked.
I know I am stubborn,but couldn't help shook in fear.
"No!
We both chorused with our heads bowed, hands clasped at the back.
The crowd erupted in mockery laughter.
I squeezed my eyes shut in embarrassment.
"Lift your head up." Another strange voice commanded, voice dripping of coldness and power.
And surprisingly, everywhere became silent like a graveyard.
We both raised our head up to find everyone staring wide eyes at Leo including his friends, as if he is an alien.
Hold on, does it mean he's the owner of the cold voice?
But, why are they staring at him strangely?
Then, I started hearing different voices in my head.
————
**Wow, I can't believe the Leo that nobody has heard his voice before spoke today.
**Leo's voice is cold and sexy.
** Oh shit! Leo is handsome, I wish he is my boyfriend.
** Awwwn! Look at his voice too, i am literally in cloud nine right now...
I mentally rolled my eyes, so nobody has heard his voice or heard him speak before. No wonder, it was his friend that spoke on his behalf during the orientation program.
"Why did you came late? He asked, displeasure showed clearly on his handsome face.
My throat tightened slightly. I cleared my throat.
"I....um..was the one that got us both delayed." I stuttered.
"Why?" He asked further.
" I...um... woke up late." I answered, voice dripped of fear.
" Miss Adams! He called, as if we have known each other for long.
I snapped my head up again to stare at him.
How did he knew my name?
Oh my God! Who is this boy tormenting me with his eyes, just by looking at me.
"I can see you are a lazy girl." And your punishment would be worse than your friend's." He said, and twitched his left eyebrow.
He raised a hand, and my heart started beating rapidly.
" Everybody here today would not do anything, excluding you and your friend." He paused and then weight of the moment dropped hard. "The both of you would entertain us.
As if under a spell, all the students began to leave the field moving like puppets, clearing the space completely—until only Emily and I remained, alone.
He gave me a smirk as I started at him expectantly.
My heart beating rapidly.
" You are going to run round the field fifty times." Leo said coldly, his eyes fixed on me. " Your friend only has to do ten." His words dropped like a bomb.
He continued staring at me, as if daring me to challenge him.
