The auditorium building was huge, and its size stretched to an unknown distance Mason wasn't aware of. The irony of the situation hit him, and a little smile appeared on his face. He has been at Aleric University for years; it was his first time at the student auditorium. The time a general gathering was announced like this was during his freshman year, and he could not attend due to the part-time jobs he was juggling.

Shifting his thoughts, Mason followed the queue with several students walking in the same direction. The Security guard standing at the entrance of the auditorium building made Mason groan as the reason for their appearance whacked him. He wasn't holding his student pass, which he had forgotten at home. Since it is an official gathering with the university staff, including other high administrators of the University, the security pass will strictly be used. As if that wasn't enough, Mason raised his head to the broadcasting speaker at the top of the building, towering

  • They Declared War

    The interior of the car was sealed off from the outside world, creating an insulated environment. Mason's fingers gently traced along the smooth surface of the bulletproof glass, which muted the bustling city noise. He could already feel her gaze waiting for permission to speak. “Go ahead,” he said, as his eyes remained fixed on the distorted reflection in the glass.Miranda studied him carefully. Among all the celestial captains, she was the only one who had the rare opportunity to work directly with their master. That fact alone was a huge responsibility any captain would carry with pride. Mason's calm and precisely unreadable expression has always impressed her.“The attack on your sister wasn’t random,” she announced. "We've confirmed it was planned to send a message.""I know," he replied in a low, controlled tone. Though he didn't know their initial goal, he was aware that such an attack would require meticulous planning and a subsequent follow-up strategy, and the fact that t

  • Words And Consequences

    “What's going on? What's he talking about?” Cleopatra asked, curiosity masking her voice. She shifted her gaze from Mason to the man on his knees. She remembers him, not because of the uniform he wore, but because of the expression he had earlier when he was rudely accusing Mason of cheating.Mason reluctantly lowered his gaze to the security officer, who was once barking orders. “You should head home and get some rest. I'll come by later to pick you up," he replied.“Later?”Mason nodded. "I'd like to introduce you to my family," he added, finally meeting her eyes.When he saw the expression flash across her face, a small smile appeared on his face. "I'm sure they would love to meet you," he added. Cleopatra, with a slowed breath, nodded. She took one last glance at the kneeling man, then turned toward her car.Mason watched silently as her vehicle pulled away from the engineering faculty, its taillights vanishing into the distance. Once the car was out of sight, he turned his atten

  • I'm Not A Cheater

    Ignoring the attention, Mason scanned around for Cleopatra, but she was nowhere to be found.“She left a few seconds ago; you might catch up to her if you leave now,” Ms. Sonia whispered.Mason met her gaze and nodded his head before walking away from the preemies.Mason slipped through the double door into the corridor, whose outside felt longer than it had minutes earlier. The cheers faded behind him as urgency slowly replaced his triumph. Even when he had seen Cleopatra earlier, he could still see the facade she wore, the pain lingering in her eyes, and the hint of betrayal lacing her voice as she spoke. That morning was still clear in his mind. He could still picture her face the last time he’d seen her on his screen. She had frozen into silence, hurt flashing before the call ended too quickly for words.“Cleopatra!” Mason called, breaking into a jog as he spotted her near the exit. Her shoulders tense, her steps quick and deliberate. She didn’t turn, making his heart skip a beat

  • Test Result

    “I will take the test,” Mason replied, and the man nodded his head, but before he could lead the way away from the group, Ms. Sonia stepped forward.“If the committee want my student to undertake a test, I would also supervise it,” she said, her tone leaving no room for negotiation.The man hesitated, unprepared for resistance. When he couldn't make up a reply, he shifted his gaze toward the judges’ table.After the men exchange murmurs and nods, permission was granted by the judges, and Ms. Sonia straightened her posture. “Let go, Mason,” She gestured for Mason to walk beside her. He didn't know why but he was sure he noticed the confidence residing in her tone.‘This is going to be interesting,’ Mason muttered to himself. They trail behind the officer together, slipping away from the crowd through the corridor beneath the stands, and the roar of the crowd slowly fades into a low, uneasy hum.“What's going on? Why is Mason Williams being taken away by the committee?” a voice muttere

  • Come With Us

    Natalia's eyes darted quickly towards Cleopatra, and the expression etched on her face was so intense that she instinctively took a step back. She inhaled sharply as if the air had been abruptly knocked out of her, prompting her to realize her actions.The stunned group of students, who were observing, grew more curious, their whispers growing louder as they watched Natalia struggle to regain composure.“What was that all about?" Someone muttered softly, but not enough to miss the mockery lingering in her. "Why is Natalia so desperate for Mason to admit to dating her?""Did they really date?" Another voice chimed in,A third voice, uncertain and skeptical, questioned, "I thought it was all just a rumor, and hasn't Natalia denied any relationship with him whenever she was asked?""I can't believe what must be going through her mind," the voice quickly lowered its tone. "Imagine your turning out to be the new hot guy every girl secretly dreams of!""Oh my, then sorry for her loss!" Anot

  • Natalia Break Down; Admit It

    “Mason! Mason! Mason!” Those words would have echoed through the crowded natatorium if the audience hadn't been so absorbed in reality. A heavy silence fell over the scene, and the spectators' eyes widened in surprise as they followed the figure emerging from the pool.Mason stepped out of the water, dripping wet yet radiating confidence. He deliberately shifted his gaze, narrowing his eyes over his shoulder at the other swimmers still struggling to reach the finish line. Meanwhile, the judge traced his gaze to what caught his attention, nearly forgetting about the remaining competitors who were now touching the wall, marking the end of their race.Without waiting for the official announcement, Mason casually grabbed a towel, wrapping it around his body. He then made his way toward his team, whose members' mouths dropped open in astonishment as they watched his aura pass through the maze of onlookers.“Oh my god,” a girl whispered breathlessly, her eyes fixed on Mason as her mouth wat
