Chapter 73
Although Jeri wasn’t so bothered by the fact that she kissed Kevin, Lexa was so embarrassed. She recalled all what happened and wondered if it was really her that did that. She saw Kevin’s glowing face and as if she was charmed by a spell, she suddenly doesn’t know what she was she was doing. She walked towards Kevin and had kissed him, is that not embarrassing. Lexa squeezed her lips and cried within herself.
‘What did I just do? I can’t face Kevin like this. No, it’s so embarrassing.’
“Lexa, Lexa are you okay?” Kevin saw her facing the back with her head turned to the floor.
Kevin walked towards Lexa and grabbed her hands. “Lexa, it’s alright.. I’m sorry for what I did. It was unintentional.”
“I’m the one at fault why are you begging.” Lexa mumbled within herself.
Although Kevin could hear what she said, he decided to tease her a little bit. “What did you say Lexa? You want me to kneel. Huh?” He smiled.
“Leave me alone.” Lexa said silently, a smile suddenly formed across her lips but she was trying her best to hide the smile and her face. She just couldn’t face Kevin in her blushing state.
.....
The unbothered Jeri abruptly walked towards Kevin and had grabbed his hands. “Oh my goodness, Kevin, I didn’t know you’re so hot and romantic as this. I really enjoyed this kiss. When are we going for the next step, husband?” Jeri said as she wrapped her hands around Kevin.
Lexa’s eyes fluttered wide in surprise as she heard Jeri call Kevin husband. She didn’t know when she turned around to face the two students.
“What’s happening, shouldn’t you be ashamed of what you did?” Lexa said. Despite what Jeri did by kissing Kevin, Lexa couldn’t believe that Jeri didn’t feel any remorse on her action. Instead of pleading that it was a mistake, she started calling Kevin her husband.
‘Or has she used the spell on him again?’ Lexa wondered.
“Ah, I forgot that our little girl here haven’t heard about our relationship.” Jeri flashes an evil smile at Lexa.
“Jeri can keep your mouth shut for a while?” Kevin said. It seems like Jeri will be the one spoiling the relationship between him and her.
“Kevin, what’s going on? Are you guys dating?”
“Err.. Lexa its a kind of complicated. The thing is, I’m not who you think I am... I.. I...”
“You’re a Triling.. is that what you want to say?” Lexa said, interrupting Kevin’s stammering.
“Yep. But how do you know about that?”
Jeri had immediately stood between the two students. “You guys should calm down. I kinda told Lexa that you’re a Triling. Believe me, that’s all. I didn’t tell her that you made me your harem wife.” Jeri sucked in her lips as she realized what she just said now.
Kevin scoffed while Lexa laughed amusingly to herself.
“And that too.” Jeri replied.
“See, I’ve been keeping the secret about myself for a long time, no one knows what I am. But you just appeared out of nowhere and said you know that I’m a Triling and had even started telling everyone who I am.” Kevin said.
“No, I only told Lexa about it. No one else.” Lexa uttered out.
“Thank God it’s just Lexa and no one else.” Kevin replied.
“Why? But everyone has been waiting to see the Triling.”
‘Everyone?’ The System said. ‘That’s a lie.’
Kevin glanced at Lexa and saw that she had a confused look on her face. It seems like she doesn’t know anything about a Triling.
Walking forward to Jeri, Kevin grabbed her neck and pinned her back against the wall, lifting her up in the air.
“Reveal yourself now. Who are you, who sent you, how did you know that I’m a Triling? I demand an explanation or I’ll kill you. You have five seconds to give me an answer.”
“Kevin, but.. I’m your... harem wife.” Jeri said slowly.
“I told you it could be only today.”
“What kind of husband would do this to his wife. So you don’t trust me even though I’m your harem wife?” Jeri said.
“Well, your time is up, time to die.” Kevin pressed his hands against Jeri’s neck and started squeezing tightly.
“Stop,.. I... I’ll.” Jeri said faintly.
“Kevin stop, you’re going to kill her.” Lexa noticed that Kevin’s eyes had changed to crimson red, there was no black in his eyes anymore.
‘No, I need to stop him.’ Lexa said as she ran towards Kevin.
‘Kevin, calm yourself down. Try to control the anger.’
‘I can’t. It seems like something has possessed me. Kevin replied.
‘It is the anger spell coming from the blood stone. Some people might have tampered with the blood stone, the power has been exposed to the public. That’s why you’re like this.’
‘I thought you said no spell will have an effect on me anymore.’
‘Yes, but not the blood stone. Once taken out of the room, it will be difficult to control, it feeds on fear, anger, and greed and causes destruction and death. Kevin, you need to calm yourself down to get over the spell.’
‘I’m trying to calm myself but what Dan did to me kept on flashing in my mind.’ Kevin explained.
‘It’s the power of the blood stone. It brings out the anger in you to cause destruction.’
“Kevin!!” Lexa shouted as she pushed him away from Jeri.
“Jeri! Jeri! Are you okay?” Lexa said as she lifted her off the ground. Thankfully, she was still alive but her neck had turned reddish and was coughing really hard. If Lexa hadn’t interfere sooner, she would have died.
Kevin had stand up from where he was and had moved towards the girl but Lexa stopped him from getting closer to them.
“Don’t come closer to us.” Lexa said.
“Lexa I’m sorry, it wasn’t intentional.” Kevin pleaded.
“No, you’re a killer.”
“Lexa, it’s okay. I’m fine.” Jeri said, appearing out of the shadow.
