Jamie looked gloomily at the dark sky when she sat down on the bench next to Kai, who was applying his make up again for their next class.
"Where are Casey and Connor?" Jamie asked grimly at Kai, who seemingly determined to not be bothered by her question until his lips was smudged glossily.
"Fighting again, " Kai answered and sighed while putting back all of his things into his bag."They had been fighting since..." He tried to remember, but couldn't."...I don't even remember since when they are fighting like this? Both of them are always so sweet."
Now, in this table, were only Jammie and Kai. The news of Sunny's death really stirred up the school and business world.
The police found Sunny's body inside a building. Stabbed to death, but the investigation met a death end since very few clues can be found at the scene. Temporary suspicion, Sunny was murdered due to family business problems.
Rumor said, Sunny's family business had a clash with Donovan Company, but it was almost impossible because the two companies were not on par, except the fact that before Sunny was being found death, Andoori family signed a contract with de Medici family.
However, there was nothing that shook the world more than the news about the Donovan Company now and the legendary business Torak Donovan himself.
Since Torak Donovan was accused for murder a few high ranked polices, he couldn't be found anywhere.
Even when several his subsidiary companies had collapsed and the main quarter of his business in the Red River city was no longer could operate properly due to lack of management, Torak was still not showing up.
He simply vanished and not only him. The young girl, who he declared as his woman, and a few his trusted people also had disappeared.
"The weather is so gloomy." Kai raised his head and watched how dark sky hung above their head."Like a storm is coming."
"Hmm, " Jammie murmured and watched a few people were in dark mood while the other seemed too sensitive to be approached, as if they would tear your face if you rubbed them in the wrong way.

Oliver had his arm wrapped around Norah's shoulder as he walked her back home, but a sudden scream startled them.
"What is that?" Norah jumped in fear and looked around to find the source of the commotion.
Even though it was day time, but above them, dark clouds were hanging low as cold wind blew from the north. Recently, the weather was so bad, but the people were worse.
"Robbery, " Oliver said as he nodded at the crowded across the street.
"This will be the thrice in this week." Norah frowned.
Mystic river was a small village, which had a low crime rate, but how could this happen almost every day? At least, there were three cases within a week.
Perhaps, this was a side effect of the current economic crisis. From what they heard on the news, giant companies like Donovan was in the brink of going bankrupt, therefore it gave a huge impact to the other aspect since that company had many subsidiary in almost everywhere.
There were several riots in the big city and now people in this village, started to behave very strange.
"Let's go, we have to reach your home before it rains." Oliver nudged Norah's shoulder.
==============
"Cut his hand, " Jedrek said to his man.
The guard executed his order perfectly and made a clean cut on Rowan's left hand, not long after that, an agony screaming echoed throughout the wall of the dungeon.
However, this kind of scene even didn't make anyone inside the room flinch or furrowed their brows, as they had seen much worse than this.
Yet, Rowan still didn't let them know any useful information.
"Mate?" Torak asked, he propped his elbow on the armchair and supported his head with his fist.
"Have not met, " Jedrek replied curtly.
"Family?" Torak asked again.
"All my generals are orphan." Jedrek chose it that way so their loyalty wouldn't be divided, yet apparently his idea was proved to be wrong.
"You killed their family?" Torak raised his brows.
"Their family died when there was riot, " Jedrek answered.
"Then, he is useless." Torak shrugged his shoulder."You can't make him talk and since he betrayed you, there is nothing he is afraid of."
Jedrek touched his chin thoughtfully before he gave an order."Kill him." Since Rowan determined to keep silence, then Jedrek would silence him forever.
Afterward, the executioner carried out the order. It didn't take a long time before the dungeon became quiet.
"I will to go to the East region." Jedrek stood up when three guards dragged Rowan's body out of the room.
Torak didn't respond to Jedrek's statement. He looked at the two guards that were still inside the room and spoke."Leave us alone."
However, they didn't take his order and didn't move an inch.
"They are not your people, they don't listen to you, " Jedrek said.
"Then, tell them to leave. There is something I want to talk to you."
"About what?"
"About our parents and what you have done all this time." Torak also stood up. They were at the same height and very intimidating.
When the two Alpha's started to stare at each other and tried to subdue one another, suddenly the room became very tensed and the atmosphere became very thick.
Even though, neither Torak nor Jedrek were looking at the two guards, but they felt intimidated and lowered their head, didn't even dare to stare anywhere except their own shoes.
"You know where they are and what happened to them." Jedrek's expression was devoid from any emotion.
"Stop lying to me Jedrek, " Torak scoffed. He looked at his brother carefully."Is that the reason why you forced me to go?"
"You left this realm with your own volition." Jedrek waved his hand and was about to walk away, but Torak stopped him.
"Raine saw something."
