The Silver Crescent Alpha Prince-Chapter 416 - Crushes

Bianca

Age 15

"Bianca!" shouted Eddie when he didn't see her emerge from the waters below. She had dived off the cliff.

Along with her friends, Matt, Eddie and Lydia, Bianca had come to the Pinetree Cove. Wrapped by fog throughout the year, the place was surrounded by water on three sides and forest in the rest of the area. It was the farthest point on the west one could go before falling off the world. From the cliff, one could see a blur of Silver Mansion gardens, swirling around the mansion with an explosion of blooms so vivid that even the Gods couldn't miss it. Bianca loved to surf and swim so much that her mother feared and father… encouraged. All through the years in her school, she had never asked for favors. She had been given equal freedom as she grew up along with her brother. By the time she was fifteen, she was expert in horse riding, cliff diving, hand-to-hand combat, ballet, German and Gaelic and piano. It's not that her parents had forced her into this curriculum or they had high standards for their children, it was just that she had to learn all these because she wanted to.

"Bianca!" this time it was Matt who panicked. The choppy waves below broke around the rocks in the shallows as their foam crests became chaotic and sizzled around the grey stone. They swirled with fierce force and Matt's concern deepened. The girl was mad. Without thinking much, the boy jumped after her.

"Shit!" Eddie raked his fingers through his head when he saw Matt doing that. Eighteen-year-old Matt was trying to get into her good books and Eddie was aware of it. "Idiot!" he clenched his jaw.

As soon as Matt was in the water, Bianca surfaced and smoothed her red hair behind. She stared at the boy with black hair and then chuckled, revealing the dimple on her left cheek. As if wanting him to chase her, the girl began to swim further away and the boy chased her. They swam together for some time and then they started towards the shore. They hadn't even reached the shore when suddenly Matt grabbed her waist from behind and kissed her on her neck. She turned around slowly and looked up at him. The kids started eagerly exploring kissing each other.

They came out hand in hand, smiling and giggling.

When Matt left later in the evening, he was a happy boy. However, when he came out, he didn't find his car. The guards told him that they thought that he had gone because they saw his car driving towards the forests. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

"What?" he shouted and ran out to investigate where his car was. He didn't have to run too far because he found it inside a thicket of trees… crushed, to his horror. He didn't know how, but when he was going near his car to check it out, a tree fell right in front of him. He squealed and ran away from there.

Matt found his next meeting with Bianca equally disturbing because while they were walking together in the downtown one evening and he had offered her an ice cream for a kiss, a bicyclist had crashed into him from nowhere. Before anyone could even look as to where the cyclist was, the man and the cycle had disappeared. And Matt… well he was found in the hospital bed with his right leg and left hand fractured. There was a big bruise just above his left eye.

Bianca had gone to meet him in the hospital, but the boy had by then decided that she was bad omen. Truth be told, when she heard him say that to his mother, she had kicked his fractured leg and stomped out of the hospital room, leaving him shrieking.

At fifteen, both Bianca and Darius were taken to various parties, both business as well as clan. The clan gatherings were extremely important for them. It was there that they actually learned all their etiquettes and culture, and there was not a single one, which Dawn failed to attend.

That being said, Bianca did have crushes on the hot Lykaes of the clan, but none, which she could hold her.

One other time she had this huge crush on a celebrity's son. The boy was seventeen and pursuing the fifteen-year-old girl of the famous businessman. In a party he hosted at his place, he had called her along with her brother Darius. They went kissing on the terrace of his room. However, he didn't know how but the moment Bianca left to go back in the room, the boy fell from the terrace and crashed right over the pots, placed some ten feet below on the ground. He wasn't able to get up for the next few days, not because he had fractured his bones, but because the injury occurred in the soft tissue between his hips. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

After that incident, Bianca was so baffled that she stopped taking anyone seriously and focused on studying something as mundane as ancient history. It was a matter of chance that one day in the history section of the library of her school, her attention was caught by a bottom row of books in a corner shelf. It had a gold-dyed leather-bound book, which was halfway hidden behind a stack of many other blue-dyed leather-bound books. The entire row was smothered in dust and when she pulled it out, coughing, as she removed the dust, she was mesmerized as soon as she opened the first page, which read 'Kingdom of Aztec'.

She took the book and carried it to the nearest desk. As she flipped open the pages, which had faded to a dull yellow, she found that the book had history about the long-lost Kingdom of Aztec and the rulers it had. She didn't know when the last school bell rang. The librarian came to her and asked her to leave the library.

"Can I borrow this book?" she asked out of curiosity.

The librarian adjusted her glasses on her nose and said, "No, I am sorry but some records are too old to be borrowed."

Bianca pursed her lips and went out. However, the next day she was back. The book contained so many symbols, which intrigued her. And even more intriguing was the fact that she found it easy to remember them, though she didn't know what they meant. In the next few days, the girl had devoured the entire section.

Bianca

Age sixteen

"It is your sixteenth birthday," said Dawn with a twinkle in your eyes as she looked at her lovely daughter and smoothed her hair. "What do you want?" Her red hair had fallen below her waist and her green eyes, which were almost blue, were extremely mesmerizing. At five feet and six inches tall, she was taller than her mother. Dawn knew that it was time.

"Don't give her anything Mom," Darius chimed from behind. "Father has already bought her a Bentley."

"As if he hasn't got a Jeep for you!" she retorted at her twin brother. The boy was a replica of his father with the same raven black hair and onyx eyes. He was quickly gaining height and was already five feet ten inches. The cleft dimple in his chin was inherited from his Uncle Cole.
