Alyssum: Journey Of A Queen 33 Graduation Day- 2

Alyssa recognised him instantly. He was standing beside a man with long silver hair. Reinhard's one hand nestled in a pocket of his trousers. His navy-blue suit was immaculately tailored to fit him. He had long legs and even after keeping a certain distance from their table, he seemed to tower on her. His tiny diamond cufflinks and tie pin were sparking away as he moved. There was a big Rolex watch matching his outfit and giving him a s.e.xy vibe. He was tall and had broad shoulders, with black hair and black smoldering eyes with blue flex which was very uncommon. His hair too gave blue s.h.i.+ne under sunlight. Alyssa was instantly enticed with his eyes. They were so deep that she felt like drowning in them. His eyes seemed to have the capacity to captivate any soul.

Seeing her in a daze, he frowned. He thought her dazing action the same to be the other girls that he had met, always eager to throw themselves at him.

He moved his thin cherry red lips and said, "You girls are the same, trying to throw yourself at anybody at any time."

His words snapped Alyssa and all three of them into reality. Before Alyssa can say anything, Kale said, "Sorry for being rude your highness, but what you said is not correct. You don't know her." He was fast to speak because he knew that if Dianna or Marcus would have said anything to defend her, the situation could have become worse.

Reinhard's eyes landed on the youth that spoke and he squinted his eyes saying, "Do you think I would have any interest in a girl like her?" After saying that he turned to leave the place. Dianna wanted to say something but Kale held her hands below the desk tightly restraining her.

The man with silver hair, that was with Reinhard, approached near the table. He bends a little in front of Kale so that their eyes were at the same level. He smirked and said, you are cute, and congratulations, now you have my attention." After saying that both of them left leaving four of them dumbfounded.

"What just happened?" Dianna was the first person to come out of her trance.

Alyssa looked at her and shrugged her shoulders. It happened so fast that they didn't even get time to wrap their heads around the situation. They came and went just like a wind. Marcus nudged Kale and said, "Be aware of him. He is a playboy. If you see him, RUN. Ok." Kale nodded his head in response. He had no interest in him. He never wanted to see the silver-haired man again in his whole life.

Soon the staff person came to announce that the ceremony would begin shortly within an hour. All of the students stood up from their places and proceeded to go to the auditorium.

They all sat in their respective seats and the ceremony began. Alyssa looked around her and saw his father and mother sitting in the seats meant for guests, along with Prince Alexander. The king was not present. He was maybe attending some council meetings.

Soon, the students were called upon the stage to receive their certificates. Alyssa was valedictorian so she was to go at the last.

It was Violet's turn to go up on the stage. She went up on the stage and received her certificate from Reinhard and proceeded to hug him. He side-stepped to avoid her. She felt humiliated and her face turn sour. But she soon adjusted her facial expression and gave him a sweet and alluring smile. She came down from the stage and hugged Lady Salvia and Prince Ja.n.u.s, Alyssa's parents.

Lady Salvia took out a gift box from her bag and handed her. Prince Ja.n.u.s gave her a bouquet of flowers that he had brought with him.

Even though Alyssa was accustomed to their partiality, she still felt a stabbing pain in her chest. Her eyes reddened.

She looked around to find every student was accompanied by their parents who were cheering on them and taking their pictures when they were receiving their graduation certificate. Among all the people present around her, she felt alone, totally alone.

She felt somebody's hand on her hands and she found herself looking into Dianna's eyes. Dianna smiled and whispered in her ears, "You know we are family. Right? Two sisters from different mothers." Alyssa smiled and nodded her head.

She wiped her tears and looked at Marcus and Kale who were also staring at her. Marcus was sitting beside her so he also kept his hands over Dianna's hand and said, "And two fuc**ng gorgeous and handsome brothers from different mothers." Then he looked towards Kale and furrowed his brows in deep thought after few seconds he once again put his hands over Dianna's hands and said, "One handsome and gorgeous brother and a sissy looking another brother from different mother." Satisfied by what he said he looked at Alyssa to get her appreciation. That made Alyssa laugh. She shook her head and looked towards the stage.

Instantly her eyes met dark looking eyes and Alyssa's heart skipped a bit. It was like he was listening to all the conversations happening between her and her friends. She lowered her lashes and looked away from him. Soon her name was called too.

Alyssa walked towards the stage and stood in front of Reinhard to receive her certificate. as she approached him, he covered his nose with his sleeves and went towards the silver-haired man who too was sitting on the stage. after that Reinhard left leaving Alyssa in confusion. She discreetly smelled her underarms but found no foul odor coming from it. She had taken bath alright. She thought it was his way to embarra.s.s her in public. "Douch*bag", Alyssa muttered under her breath. The man sliver- haired man was close to her so he heard her and gave her a smirk. He then handed her the certificate and Alyssa proceeded to give her speech.
