Audrey Turnah fell in love with Jerry Dank at first sight. Up to the extent of leaving her elite international school, to join Jerry in the city school that was not up to her standard by any means.
However, she suffered a humiliating rejection from him at school. One that Audrey would never forget.
Due to this, Audrey was bent on teaching Jerry the lesson of his life, but she had a dream where he became a ruthless tyrant boss in the future, and sought revenge against the Turnah family, so Audrey thought twice and called off her former plan, but it was somewhat late. Audrey's dad had already declared war on the Dank family after Audrey reported Jerry to her dad that he bullied her at school.
Years passed, and Jerry returned to seek revenge on Audrey's family, as he had promised he would. It led to Audrey's father committing suicide, and Leopold, Audrey's childhood friend, being thrown in jail. The Turnah family and its affiliates suffered at the hands of Jerry Dank.
Audrey had to run away.
''Death. Yes. I will pretend to be dead,'' she said when she found out that Jerry had returned for vengeance.
Jerry originally hated Audrey, but after she disappeared, he became obsessed with her.
One day, Audrey heard that Jerry dug her supposed grave, and did not find her remains there. That meant he was looking for her desperately.
Her heart rang alarm bells and thud against her chest aggressively.
She packed her bag and was about to run away again when the door of her apartment swung open, and she saw Jerry's dark face staring at her with a faint smile.
''Going somewhere?'' Jerry asked her with an eerie voice.
Audrey, seeing that she could not run away anymore, decided to have a deal with Jerry. The deal, however, went wrong, and she found that she had been deceived into marrying Jerry.
Years later, she threw a divorce letter in front of him, but he engulfed her in deep kisses and asked her if she still wanted to leave him.
''No. No, I won't leave again,'' Audrey replied with tears in her eyes.

Today I had my first kiss. It wasn’t planned. It was also with a complete stranger. As I walked through the halls of my school, Higala Shifter Academy, I paused when a familiar sense washed over me.

At that moment, I felt sick to my stomach. “Oh, Scott. Stop it. You know we can’t be seen together. What if your girlfriend finds us?” “She’s in class. She’s never late. You don’t need to worry.” My heart was heavy in my chest, but also a wave of fury and resentment crossed me.“Lila?” Scott breathed, staring at me in shock “What are you—” Before he could get the entire question out, I turned to the gentleman beside me, placing my hands on his shoulders and pulling him toward me. He went easily, though his eyes showed nothing but confusion. I closed my eyes tightly so I wouldn’t have to see his expression any longer. Then, our lips touched. Later, I walked into my class but found,It was him… The man I kissed only moments ago in the hallway. The man I had given my first kiss to, was my professor.
