on my way to steal his heart.

----------------

Merliah's point of view.

----------------

"You know what. I can sense it, don't deny it. It's you who have a crush on our dean. Eww, you are passing your weird taste on me. How dare you pass me your itch? You are too much, my dear bestfriend. I can assure you that even if we make a bet, I will never like that guy. Tss, I might even make him cry, you know how capable I am when it comes to breaking boys' hearts. I'm sure the dean will be bewitched., if I make a move on him. Who knows? He might beg for me to stay," says I.

I laughed my ass out, I am even holding my breath because of too much laughing.

"Interesting. Let's see how far your confidence will fly. Bestfriend. I will give you 30k, shocks, it's my one-month allowance. " She placed her hands around her waist and looked at me with confidence.

"Sure thing. You'll see, I'll make him wrap around my finger. Then, I will leave him devastated and broken-hearted. It will be sweet revenge for the humiliation I received. Who does he think he is?"

So, that is how our game started. I was so confident that within a month I would win his heart and earn his trust. However, that guy, he must be a saint or a gay... he didn't even bat his eye on me. Unconsciously, I was so agitated and became obsessed to seduce him. Maybe because I have towering pride, I will never let myself lose in the game I started.

Or,

Maybe... I really want his attention?

Arrrgghhhh this is so frustrating… If Lore had not provoked me back then I wouldn't be distracted as I am right now.

My stupid feet had moved on their own. After one month of anger, disappointment, and mixed emotion, I became so impatient.

I committed a crazy stunt…

I went to his office, then there he was busy dealing with school papers. I came like a hurricane, obviously to tilt his world upside down. I snatched his tie and pulled him closer. Then, without warning, my lips conquered him.

'hmmm... sweet lips.'

I caught him off-guard. He was dumbfounded, then I started counting until I reached five seconds. Suddenly the reaction I expected had come...

"What do you think you're doing, Ms. Faunteen?! Get out of my office!"

"Marking my special toy, Mr. Dereux." I winked at him, which made the dean erupt like a volcano.

He stood up and threw Merliah outside of his office. At the back of my mind, "Weird, I am supposed to make him fall for me, but why am I the one falling?! How dare he ignore and blatantly reject my near Aphrodite beauty?! What an imbecile! He simply stamped on my pride!" But of course, I cannot voice out my frustration.

No, I won't give up. I make you beg for my love. Mark my word, Dean, Maximillan Dereux.

"I shall return, obviously to steal your heart," I whispered through the air.
