《Dangerous Love》Chapter 5- Getting Ready
Advertisement
The rest of my day is okay after the scene in the hall. Accept for the rest of the day people gave me looks. Some gave me the look of 'you are going to pay." Others starred like they want to be like me. I wanted to go up to them and tell them you do not want to be me in my brain.
After the scene in the hall, I did not run into Mason and his inner gang. Thankfully. I get out of P.E at 3. I try to get out of the school to get home and so I can have this day be over. I text Emery to tell her that I will wait for her in the parking lot and she texts me back with an okay.
I end up running into Em outside her last class. "Today was a stressful day," she tells me.
"Believe me I know. I just want this day to end. Wait no I want this year to be over so I can go to Italy and do something with my life," I tell her. She chuckles.
We exit the building and began walking towards my car. "Let's go clubbing there is this popular club downtown and we should loosen up after today," she tells me.
I laugh out loud. "This island has clubs?" I ask trying to keep my laugh in. I was not expecting the island to have clubs. Bars, yes. Clubs, no.
"Yes of course we do that is one of the businesses of the island everyone knows this LB," She tells me. LB is her own personal nickname for me. I have one for her too but we only really use it when it is just us.
I look around because I remember Mason and his gang. I search but then spot him smoking in his car looking at me. My smile instantly goes away and I frown in his direction. I began sprint walking to get to my car for some less crowded area for me to breathe. Em is running after me to catch from my walking.

Thankfully once I reach my car Mason speeds away in his Black Lambo. With the same exact car following, I assume that is his other inner circle going with him.
"LB can you not run you know how much I hate physical exercise," Em tells me once she climbs into my car. Once she is buckled I start the engine and speed towards the neighborhood on the other side of the school gates.
"E," I say she hums in response.
"We can go to the clubs," I tell her.
"Yay," she yells. I just roll my eyes and head for my house since I know that Em would want to wear one of my dresses since she always says she has nothing to wear.
After a few minutes of driving and listing to 1950 by King, Emery asks me a question. "Why did you confront Mason today? He could have killed you," she states.
I shrug my shoulders before turning down the road that will lead us up a hill and to the gates of my house. "LB answer me shrugging your shoulders is not the equivalent of answering with words," she tells me in her annoying bossy manner.
"Boys like him should not get to bully everyone around. Asses like him should not push women to the side and just use them for a quick fuck. If I have to live on this island then I am going to make sure that women are treated like men and not hores," I tell her with a stern tone that means no changing my mind.
"I guess your right but please be aware he is not always the best of controlling his emotions," she tells me.
By the time she is done talking we have pulled up in front of the gate and I type in the 6 digit code to open the gate. The gate opens and I drive through. I pull into the open garage and get out of the car. I grab my bag from the backseat and close the doors. Em follows me into the house and up to my room.

Her jaw drops when she sees my room. "Wow I want this room," she tells me. "You have a seating area. Ooh and a massive T.V."
"Yup wait till you see the closet and bathroom," I tell her.
I drop my bag on the bench in front of my bed. I grab her arm and drag her to my closet. I open the french doors to my closet.
"Uhh E I do not think that your jaw can handle too many more surprises," I inform her.
"Shut it. I forgot how rich your parents are," she says. I walk over to the island and open up a draw and pull out the champagne and two glasses. "You have wine in your closet?"
"Yup, I found it this morning looking for a bra," I tell her. She chuckles.
"Oooh," she exclaims holding up a one-strap glittery beige dress.
"You're welcome to try stuff on," I tell her.
"Really," I nod my head. "Okay this red one, ooh and this pink, ahh this black. Okay, one color of each."
I laugh before taking a sip of my champagne.
It has been an hour of trying on dresses, Changing, Laughing, dancing, and not to mention Emery complaining that I have too much of a broad style of clothing.
"Seriously LB a dress with cherries and burger on it?" she says holding up the dress.
"That was probably dad now go get changed this dress is the one you must wear," I tell her shoving the dress into her arms and pushing her to the bathroom.
While I wait I look through the dresses I have. I pull one out and wait for Emery to come out of the bathroom.
"Wow Em you look beautiful," I tell her. Em is wearing a mauve crushed velvet bodycon dress. She is wearing a moon necklace that she found in my collection. She curled her hair and has some foundation, lipgloss, and mascara on her face.
"Thank you know I need to find heels and you need to find a dress," she says before walking over to my collection of heels.
I go into my bathroom and run my razor over my legs. I put my hair into a messy bun to stay out of my face. I do my makeup and slip on the dress. I grab my flat iron and straighten my hair out until it falls behind my back. I clip my hair out of my eyes with bobby pins then I go back into my closet and Emery gasps.
"You look beautiful LB and I am taking your light pink jimmy choo heels. I think you should wear these," she said handing me a pair of heels. I slip them on and grab a black clutch purse and slip my phone in and some money to get us through the night.
"Ahhh let's party," Emery squealed. We rushed out of my room and down the main stairs. Dad came out of his office after hearing me and Emery laughing.
"You guys going clubbing?" he asked looking at our appearance.
"Of course Dad," I answered.
"Okay just have fun and please take the limo so you're not driving drunk," We began walking towards the door before dad added. "Also be home before 2 it's a school night."
"Of course dad Love ya," I said before closing the door and following Emery into the limo, and driving to club Fire and Ice.

Crimson Astral Cascade
Summary: A vampire-astronaut from a futuristic super-reality, is reborn into a post-apocalyptic fantasy world, and now must make a living for himself and his family as a summonable spirit of the void. The ‘chosen’ son of a vast, multiversal, empire is exiled for the sake of political expediency. Honestly, they might have been trying to execute him, rather than just sending him away, but as it turned out, he survived. He fell into the grand nebula, the sewage line, and the plumbing system for the cosmos. Then he was within the base layer of the collective of mostly-destroyed universes known as the core worlds of Tesson. Now for the sake of his new family and new life, he will have to do his best as a “heroic” Astral, traveling between the myriad fractal-worlds of Tesson that still reside outside of the nebula as means of making a living. TLDR: Who hasn’t played a gacha game by now. But have you ever wondered about what kind of life those characters you’re trying to win have lived and are living?

8 138New Paris [a Modern-day LitRPG]
New Paris [OR] I reincarnated into the world of my favorite wuxia novel as an S ranker with unbalanced skills. [Volume 1] - Completed I was one of those people who only stood out in a crowd when their name was called. Then, I died. But instead of heaven, hell, or anything else, I found myself in the body of a young woman whom I did not recognise at first. You see, I had this novel I was obsessed with. The novel was a fairly popular wuxia that got a few sequels, and a handful of spinoffs. One of these spinoffs took place in Paris, where the main cast fought against a multi-millionaire villain. When I woke up after dying, I eventually realised that I was now the third daughter of this multi-millionaire end-game boss in a spin-off of a sequel of my favourite novel. Does this make any sense to you? Because it doesn't to me. But I guess I might as well make the most of it now. Just gotta stay away from some of the more unstable main characters and cut all ties with my 'family' to avoid certain death. [Volume 2] - Currently Airing It had not been a good idea to interfere with the characters of the original novel. Had I known it was going to cause a butterfly effect, I would have stayed in my lane and minded my business. Although, between the suspicious attacks I seem to constantly find myself in the center of, and my 'family' who is the living definition of the expression 'rich pricks', I’m not entirely sure my current predicament would have been avoidable. But maybe it isn't to be avoided; maybe I should embrace this opportunity that has been given to me and become the hero of this story? At least it's certain that I can't do worse than the original protagonist in terms of moral ambiguity; with immortality already in my pocket, and no other useful skills to account for. However, if I were to follow this path, I would have a lot to lose, including an upcoming promotion and my growing relationship with my crush. With power, glory and whatever else on one side, and my wellbeing and happiness on the other, even in this magical wuxia world, the choice is easy to make.
