Chapter 12 Mastermind
Hailey’s Point of View
While I was here in the dormitory, I noticed the strange behavior of my friends.
I know what I did was dangerous, but that’s not what I’m going to think about right now because I want to know who the mastermind is.
“Where are you going?” I asked my friends.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
They will come out of the dormitory. That’s not the only thing I’m wondering about. Today is Tuesday, and Deadly Night will begin in just ten minutes.
“Mind your own business.” Agatha said.
“Deadly Night is about to start, so you can’t go out anymore.” I insisted.
“Are you deaf? Don’t bother us! ” Nadia yelled angrily.
I didn’t stop them from coming out because before I could speak, they came out.
I folded the book I was holding and secretly followed them.
I am confused because why did they come here tonight to Headmaster Dracilus’s office?
When they entered, I followed them. I was more careful with every move I made because they might see me.
“Have you done my order yet?” Headmaster Dracilus asked.
“Not yet, but we will do everything to kill Hailey.” I heard Alejandra say that.
“I am right. You are the demon who controls my friends. ” I said.
Headmaster Dracilus’s face showed shock.
“What kind of person are you? I asked the wrong question. What kind of demon are you? Even my friends, you are implicated! ” I yelled at him.
“How dare you insult our master!” Kent shouted at me.
“I’m not insulting him, I’m just describing him.” I said in a teasing tone.
“Kill that woman now.” Headmaster Dracilus orders my friends.
I was surprised when they didn’t follow Headmaster Dracilus’s command.
When I realized that Headmaster Dracilus was holding a black necklace, my friends immediately obeyed his command.
I did not allow them to approach me because I approached them by myself.
I took the knife they were holding and aimed it at my stomach.
“Good decision. Kill yourself to end it all. ” Headmaster Dracilus said.
I smiled broadly at him, and the expression on his face changed.
I did not hesitate to throw the knife at Headmaster Dracilus.
He slashed the knife with his hand, but what he did not know was that the black necklace had been hit.
My friends fell to the floor, so I immediately approached them.
“If you make a plan, make sure no one knows.” My advice to Headmaster Dracilus
He would have attacked me, but the lights went out. Someone hit me in the back, so I lost consciousness.
I heard familiar voices, so I opened my eyes.
“Hailey, we’re happy that you’re okay now.” Alejandra said.
“Aren’t you mad at me anymore?” I asked, so they were surprised.
“Why would we be angry with you?” Theo asked me back.
“Just ignore me. I also want to say sorry for not being able to protect you. ” I said, and they hugged me.
I”t’s our fault. We became weak, so Headmaster Dracilus was able to control us. ” Agatha said.
“Nothing will change us, and no one will leave. We are friends, so we must work together. ” I said happily.
A few days after what happened, the chaos still continued.
I didn’t realize that we had lived at this university for a long time.
“Hailey!” I was distracted because someone was calling my name.
“I heard what happened. You’re a great detective. ” Raine said.
“Why does it seem so quiet now?” I asked in astonishment.
“You don’t want to know the answer.” She said
“Today has something to do with why Demon hit me.” She admits
“I do not understand you.” I said, confused.
“I was the mastermind behind the death of the woman. The first was loved and valued by President Demon. ” She said, so I was shocked.
“Did Demon love a woman?” I asked again.
“She wanted to change Demon’s evil persona, but she failed. She sacrificed her own life in the hope that Demon would change. ” She explains.
“When that woman died, the demon became even worse. He was ruthless and brutal when he killed. He took love from his heart and swore that he would never love a woman again. ” She continued.
Raine stopped talking because she seemed to see a ghost behind me.
“Raine, it’s like you’ve seen a ghost.” I teased her.
“She saw not just a ghost but a demon.”
“Demon, there you are.” I said and was about to run, but he touched my uniform.
Raine, on the other hand, ran away and left me here.
“The bad guy looked at me. Do you intend to eat me alive? ” I asked angrily.
“I’d rather eat a cockroach than you.” He said, and teasingly looked at me.
“If you have nothing good to say, just shut up.” I said, disgustedly.
“Raine told you some secrets again.” “He said in a serious tone.
I walked away from him, but I was surprised when he lifted me up, so everyone looked at us.
Stop acting like you’re a child. “You’re now the queen of the whole university, so behave well. ” He reminded me.
“You’re not a teacher, to remind me.” I crossed my arm after I said that.
“I’m not a teacher, but I can teach you a lesson the way I know.” He was trying to seduce me.
“Your pervert.”
When I said that, he suddenly let go of me, and I fell.
“You are a bastard, President Demon!” I shout.
He just kept walking as if nothing bad had happened.
“Ouch!” I just said and tried to stand up.
I walked while holding on to my back. The students, on the other hand, secretly laughed. I’m like a grandmother because I’m walking like an old woman now.
“It’s your fault, Demon,” I said softly.
“You’re bad at me,” I said, and wiped away my tears.
“I’ll take care of you.” Raze’s presentation
Before he could lift me up, the Demon came and shook Raze’s hand.
“I’ll be the one to lift her.” But I slapped his hand, the Demon said.
“Do you want to double the pain in my back? I don’t want you to lift me up. I know that you will let me go again.” I doubt it.
“I am the President of this university. Whatever I want I can get. So when I say I will lift you up, don’t try to argue. ” He said emphatically.
When he picked me up, I immediately looked at Raze, but he was gone.
I just held on tightly to Demon’s arm because I was afraid he might drop me again.
