I was in the middle of peaceful dream when some obnoxious bozo who I'm some how related to. "Wake Up sis its the start of a new year." my brother tells me as barges into my room. "Go away I was having a peaceful dream of all my wishful desires." I say as I put a pillow over my face. "Oh I'm sorry I'm not the one who got in at 3 am last night from a summer abroad in Europe with who knows who." he tells me as he takes my pillow I was currently using to cover my face. "I'm sorry if I wanted to have fun this summer and I was with Chloe." I say half way lying. "I highly doubt it since her family went to the Caribbean this summer. Now get out of bed or I'll tell daddy his little princess isn't quite as innocent as he thinks." my brother threatens. "Don't you dare I'm getting out of bed right now." I say as I jump out of bed in fear of my big brother telling my scandalous tale. If my dad and mom ever find out about my real life I'm screwed.
After I get on a white blouse with my blazer and a mini skirt with a pair of black Jimmy Choo's. I brush my hair and put some loose curls in it. I rushed downstairs to see my daddy and mom eating breakfast with my brother Henry. "Dorota can you please get Kourtnie that special something I got her for today?" my mom asked Dorota. "Mom what are you talking about." I ask her as I take a seat at our dining room table and grab a croissant. "Well since my daughter has been gone all summer and didn't get home until 3 in the morning I never got the chance to giver her something very special to me." my mom says as she gets up from her chair and walked over to Dorota to get something from her. "Me and your mother have been talking and there is this thing that we got when you where first born and now that your starting your Junior year I think its time to give it to you." my dad says. "What is it daddy?" I ask. Next thing I know my mom comes out with a beautiful peal bracelet with a alexandrite gem in the middle. Which is both my favorite jewels and the alexandrite is one of the rarest jewels in the world and cost up to 4 million dollars for 7 karats and this is at least 24 karats. "Its beuatiful thank you so much mommy and daddy. I love you both." I say as I run over and give my mom a hug and my daddy a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Now as much as I love having you back home princess its time for you to go to school. The limo is waiting outside." my dad tells us. "Bye daddy love you. Bye mom love you too." I say as I rush to the elevator. Well I'm walking to to the elevator and hear my mom saying "you where always her favorite" and I could tell my dad had his signature smirk on his face.
"How in the world are you the favorite when you are the most devious person I know." Henry bolts as we get into the limo. "What are you talking about I'm a perfect little princess." I say as I get a glass of my mom's '95 Dom which is her favorite and turned into mine from the mini fridge. "Oh yeah like you don't sleep with a random guy overnight which makes you a slut and you're drinking Dom before 9 am." Henry quotes all the things I have done. " One I prefer the term female player because I sleep with them then tell them I'm not ready for a relationship. Two its only one glass. And three it's not like dad did anything better when he was a teenager." I say. "I can't wait till you meet your true love like dad so you will finally change maybe finally get a heart." he tells me. "Well thats never going to happen I like my life as it is. Now I have a school to rule." I say as I get out of the limo since its been sitting at Constance/St Judes for about 2 minutes while me and Henry where bickering. Before I get out I down my glass of Dom and walk off to where I was meeting C. and my minions.

I am the queen of Constance. As is should be since my mom is Blair Waldorf Bass, when she was a teen she ruled the school. Normally you don't become queen till junior year but there was an exception when they gossip girl blasted and I quote: What's this the one the only Blair Waldorf's heir is coming to Constance better watch out girls she's coming and she expects the best. That fall of freshman year I was mentored by the queen at the time Ella Reed she was a senior so it was perfect. By Sophomore year I was ruling the school and still am. I have my best friend by my side Chloe Humphrey aka Serena's daughter so we where destined to be best friends like our mothers and of course I have my minions but I'm down to two so lets do something my mom did long ago. Its hunting season who will be the victims and who will be my new prodigies/minions.
I walk over to the Met steps where long ago my mom held her meetings and planned schemes. "C. I missed you so much." I yell as I walk up to Chloe and give her a big hug. "I know I missed you to. Why in the world where you taking forever to get here." C asked me. "Well the jet got in at 3 in the morning so I'm running on only 4 hours of sleep." I tell her as we get bagels from the cafe right across the street. "You where the one who decided to tour Europe for another month without me or did you go somewhere else." C asked as we got our bagels and sat down. "Well after you left I went to Italy where I had the most scrumptious pizza. Then I went off to Tokyo and had some amazing sushi and found these amazing clubs most of them no where to be found but I was invited. Then to Brazil where I met some of the most famous soccer players. And then ended it in Barcelona where again more food and they make killer drinks." I tell Chloe. "So either your hiding all the guys you slept with and how much you drank or you didn't sleep with anyone which is totally out of perspective for you and you stayed sober or the third option and the one I'm scared to think is true you got to black out drunk to remember all the people you slept with." C tells me and that's how I know she knows me so well. "You know me so well C. and the correct answer is I slept with a guy in every new country and maybe Half of the soccer team. And I drank many many drinks and maybe did a little bit of hash." I say. "Wow following in your fathers footsteps in one way and your mothers in another." she says. "What at school I'm queen bee and at night I'm just like my father." I say. "Lets go we have to find recruits for new minions this year." I tell her as we walk back to the met steps to find my two old minions Lilly and Bella. "Are these the files" I ask as they are both holding up two piles of files with every girl from freshman to junior year.
"C. its hopeless we've been through all these files and no new minions." I say. "Don't worry K we will find someone." she reassures me. "I hope so Chloe how am I suppose to continue my reign with two minions." I say still going through files. "Well you have me and Brynn if she ever shows up." Chloe says. "Thats it she is the one. " I say as I show Chloe the file to Ella Humphrey, "What is this your cousin or something?" I ask. "Yeah but we really are in no contact." Chloe says. "Good now where is Brynn and Bella go get Ella." I say. "Man can you minions get actual names that sound different." I say in frustration of the morning I've been having. "C can we cut school today and go shopping and everything." I ask my best friend. "Fine just because I love you as a friend." Chloe says she always says as a friend due to her big secret which only me and Henry know. "I know everybody loves me." I gloat. "Hi Kourtnie you wanted to see me." a girl with chocolate brown hair says to me who I'm assuming is Ella. "Yes Little Humphrey congratulations you are know one of my minions and there is this party coming up that I do every year Kiss on the Lips." I say to her. "Yes I know about it and I'm invited." She asked. "No hunny but there is a way you can just make all the invitations I'll have Dorota email you the guest list," she shakes her head in response, "now all of you scram me and C have things to do and all of you need to cover for me in my classes make sure to get assignments or their will be consequences oh and C. too." I yell and they immanently all scurry away. "Come on C a new Gucci bag and a Chanel wallet have my name all over it." I tell Chloe as I grab her hand and drag her to where my limo was parked.

"I still don't get how your parents let you spend how ever much you want and not take it out of your trust fund." Chloe says while trying on a pair of sunglasses. "Well when your daddy's a billionaire and mom a multi-millionner and you only have one other sibling my trust fund is already over a billion dollars and then on top I'm daddy's little princess. Also I'm Kourtnie Bass." I say as I check out a new wallet.
You thought Blair Waldorf could scheme her way out of everything than you never met her daughter who plays the game better than her daddy or her mommy and their legends in scheming.
"Lucas no Kourtnie did not talk about you at all this summer I didn't even see her this summer she was in Europe." I tell my best friend. Lucas is my best friend and my sister's best friend sister so it works out great and we are all able to hang out together. Except somehow Lucas wants to sleep with my sister not even date her but just sleep with her. "So what you're saying is you don't know." Lucas said with optimism. "You know if my sister is just like my father if you just meet her the bar at the right time I'm sure she would sleep with you." I tell Lucas "I know but it just doesn't seem right and me and Brynn have been talking so maybe that will turn into something again like before I actually miss her if if she can be a little dramatic." Lucas tells me."Thank god I'm a senior so I don't have to put up with you next year." I say. "Well your in luck because after that year I'll be joining you at Yale." Lucas remarks. "Yeah I don't even now if I'm going to Yale I now my parents want me to but I don't now if I want to." I say. Before Lucas says anything my phone starts ringing. "Its a call from my father." I say. "He must have super hearing hearing you didn't want to go to Yale." Lucas tells me. "No it must be something important or he would have just texted me." I say as I step into a empty room to talk to my father.
"What was that about?" Lucas asked me. "Guess who skipped school today and got her minions and me to cover for her." I tell him. "Well at least we know its the real Kourtnie Eleanore Bass." Lucas remarks. "True but I was hoping she was body swapped with someone in Europe maybe a nicer model." I tell him. "Hey I gotta go find Kourtnie make sure she isn't sleeping with other random guy or getting drunk." I tell Lucas. "Doesn't she do that every night?" Lucas asked. "Yeah but if she does it durning the day then one of my parents friends can spot her and she would get in massive trouble because even though my parents love both of us if either of them found out we where following in dad's footsteps they would have her head on a platter." I tell him. "What about her following in mom's footsteps bu being the mean girl and queen bee." Lucas asked. "Mom is proud of her believe it or not and this is what she said and I quote: I knew you would step in to my footsteps you are a Waldorf Bass after all. She even adapted my dad's saying every time someone asked how she gets what she wants or acts the way she does she goes I'm Kourtnie Bass." I say pretending to flip my hair to my shoulder. He both have a laugh and then I get into the limo to find my sister. "Take me to the Chanel store on fifth avenue." I tell Arthur our driver.
"Do you think these glasses look good or do you prefer these ones" I ask C holding up two pair of Chanel sunglasses. "I prefer the ones with the skinny pieces on the side the chunky ones are last season too." Chloe tells me. "True and why would I by last season sunglasses when I can have the new ones. Even better I can have daddy get the newer ones he has connections." I tell Chloe. "Daddy won't by princess anything if you don't get home soon." my brother tells me as he enters the Chanel store. "What do you mean school doesn't get out till," I look down at my watch and notice its already 3:30, "thirty minutes ago. I have to go C. I have a meeting with daddy about the company." I tell Chloe and rush out of the store will Henry. "I covered for you when dad called me today." Henry says. "Thank you. Today is important and I need dad to see him as a perfect angle." I tell him. "Oh right you're going to try to get him to internship at Bass Industries." Henry says. "You know it's my dream to one day take over Bass Industries even though I'm already in line for Waldorf Designs but since you're not going to be suited to take over. Maybe I'll get both." I tell him. "Sorry if I want to do something else other than take over my dad's company." Henry tells me. "And thats why I'm the favorite." I tell him as I get out of the limo and go into the apartment complex.
Once I get up to the apartment I go straight to my dad's office. "Daddy can we go out for dinner just the two of us I wanted to discuss somethings with you." I ask him. "Sure princess anything just let me tell your mother and then we'll head off." he tells me. "Tell her mother about what." My mom asked as she walks over and gives my father a kiss. "Ok I love how in love you are but can you wait till I'm out of the room" I beg. "Anyways I think it would be great for you two to go to dinner tonight. It gives me a chance to discuss with Henry about college." my mother tells us. "Thanks mom I promise to have dad back by a decent time." I tell mom making her and dad both laugh. "Ok and Chuck I'm trusting you on making sure our daughter does not drink." my mom tells my father while giving my dad her signature look. "Blair come on one glass of champagne will be fine." my dad tells my mom. If anything my dad is always on my side with the little things and moms with the huge ones but that hasn't happened yet. "Fine one glass and thats it got it." my mom tells him. "Ok Kourtnie let's go." my dad tells me. "I have to go get change and then we can go." I tell him. As I was walking up the stairs I hear my mom say "You owe me tonight." I have amazing hearing it is a gift and a curse especially I know what that means aka they are going to be playing one of their many games tonight.
I go up to my room and get one of my many dresses by Waldorf Designs obviously. It is a beautiful white elegant gown with blue poppies on it and my lucky pair of black Jimmy Choo's.
"Ready to go daddy" I say. "You look beautiful princess." my dad tells me. "Yes darling the dress looks stunning on you. Now go have a good time with your father." my mom tells me. We went downstairs and got in the limo and went to my favorite restaurant on the Upper East Side.
What is Kourtnie up to this time? Will Lucas ever get his chance with Kourtnie or will he stay loyal to his girlfriend Brynn? On things for sure it will be filled with gossip and I'm here for it all. You know you love me

“Let an old warrior caution you, there are parts of every tale that are not told. The part where none of those mighty champions died peacefully in their beds.

I do not want that for you.” The Heavens created the Realm of Man and saved it from the eternal silence of the Void - once.

When the Void wakes once more the Realm questions if the first war was ever really won…and if they might be saved again. Raegn is left searching for purpose and must navigate through a world teetering on the brink of extinction. Dire times create the greatest heroes, but tales that stand the test of time are written twice - in blood before ink.Divinity is a fantasy series about Raegn Edelgard, a young man who must make his way through a world that is struggling to realize it is, for the second time in its history, teetering on the brink of extinction.

Oliver muttered as he glared at me suspiciously and condescendingly.He was waiting for me to run away.Grinning widely to piss him off, I shrugged."If you're a psychopath, then I must be a lunatic. Because I like you. And because of that, I'm not leaving."He'd watched me stand my ground because we'd surely been through way too much for me to give up now. A small smile spread through his emotionless facade and in a second, he was back to who I really saw him for.He let out a laugh, "Do you have a death wish?"S L O WU P D A T E SC O V E R B Y @ZiaDavis
