Roseanne Park.

Rose gritted her teeth, feeling blood in her tongue. She glared at Anna, whose face was flushed with anger. The entire room was staring at them, whispering to each other, and not even trying to hide their excitement.

Seth Nikolai.

At the corner of the room, Seth sat there flipping through the pages of his book, seemingly unfazed by the situation. He knew Roseanne well. She was a hot-headed and stubborn girl.

Bam!

Anna kicked Rose in the stomach, causing her to fall to the ground. Anna sighed in frustration. She couldn't stand people who acted like they were better than everyone else. Did Rose think she was some famous ballerina or something?

"Get lost!" Anna yelled.

Bam!

Bam!

Rose didn't fight back. Instead, she looked towards Seth, who was still sitting there calmly. He didn't seem to care that his girlfriend was being hurt. Who was he to her? It was weird. There were no words of love between them, but how did their relationship even start?

Based on what?

"Be my woman. Then, I will make you the most graceful ballerina the world has ever seen." Seth caressed Rose's cheek, his touch slowly making its way to her luscious lips. Sensually, he kissed her, pulling her body towards him. He was mischievous, yet sweet.

"My only ballerina."

Lies.

Rose steadied herself with her palms on the floor. Her hot gaze never left Seth's figure. Her hatred towards him was growing stronger. She pulled Anna's hair, making the girl jerk her head up towards the ceiling. Rose dragged Anna towards Seth.

"Seth."

"Seth."

Seth closed his book.

"Why do you always act like you don't care?" Rose asked, her voice low and disappointed. Her forehead furrowed with a thousand creases. Was she just Seth's mistress? The whole institute knew about their relationship, what else was there to hide?

"Because I am."

Rose laughed mockingly.

"So, shall I make you care, Sir Seth Nikolai?" When Seth didn't respond, Rose began to lash out. She slammed Anna's head onto the floor, and without mercy, stomped on her body with her feet.

Bam!

Bam!

Bam!

Rose was going crazy.

Crazy for Seth.
