Niara's POV

I kept thinking about what Ethan had said. Mr. Donovan beat him up..

I still don't quite understand why he would do that, but even so everything from that night is a bit fuzzy so maybe I'm missing something..

That's why I've decided to confront him today. That's why I woke up extra early before our class time so I can give myself confidence.

I take a deep breath as I look at myself in my vanity mirror.

Mr. Donovan might be a scary man, but when someone does something wrong they should be held accountable!.... even though he could crush me with one hand. But I won't chicken out.

I take a sip of the coffee I had brung up to me by one of the maids.

I flinch at how hot it is "Ah my tongue" I try to say while fanning my mouth with my hand.

Hot hot hot

Tears well up in the corner of my eyes as I whine.

After the burning sensation goes away I glare at myself in the mirror "How do you expect to confront someone when you can barely drink coffee" I scolded.

I stand up and make my way to my closet. I need to set a serious mood and atire is a very important asset to that.

I decided on a sheer white turtleneck, layered with a pleated dress over it and a cropped blazer.

This ought to do it. Dark always gives a certain vibe.

He'll have no choice but to obey me!

I'm in the middle of evil laughing when a knock sounds from my door.

"Come in!" I call out as I make my way to the table in my room.

And now we wait for the right moment..

It was almost one o'clock, usually around this time we take a lunch break. He would go sit outside making phone calls and I would eat the lunch Ms. Marie makes for me.

But not today!

"Mr. Donovan" I call out to him before he can leave.
