He then moved his gaze to Ariana, making sure he locked eyes with her. "Well if no one is willing to nominate a person I guess I will and then that said person will be running unopposed. I dare say that we won"t even need to hold an election, we can just make her start as of today. Is that acceptable with you President?" Mateo said as he turned towards Flint Remo.Flint sat in a throne like chair, right in the center of a ma.s.sive pewter stained, desk. He sat with an air of n.o.bility as he watched over everyone silently. Mateo to his right, a stern looking female sat to his left. Beside the female was a hunched over boy who was scribbling away. An empty spot was to the left of Mateo. The room they sat in was something close to a conference room. Deep within the school. The room was practically bare except for square shape placement or tables, chairs and one giant desk in the center of the room.
Flint then graced everyone in the room with a prince like smile. It caused caused some of the girls to blush with delight and giddiness while Ariana felt like a bucket of ice water was splashed onto her face. She was glad she had known better, that the truth about Flint was there was a demon lying in wait underneath the princely mask and she was never going to forgive him. She had warned Vera about her feelings without giving too much away but felt guilty for not giving her the whole truth. The room stayed eerily silent, while everyone waited for Flint to give his answer.
The silence was ominous, Ariana couldn"t help but feel that something was off. She quickly poked Payton"s side making him turn and look at Ariana. She silently stared at Payton, hoping that she could send him a message with her eyes. With a single glance Payton could tell what she was thinking. He didn"t like where the Student Council"s conversation was heading either but he stayed hopeful that it was only their imagination. "Why not? I think that your suggestions is a wonderful idea. This will allow the Student Council to skip over something so tedious and free up our time to take care of more important matters." He said with an air of n.o.bility as he released another round of his pheromones into the air.
"The President has agreed, we can now proceed with this meeting. Honestly, I"m glad we don"t need to waste our time with an election so Ms. Ari-?" Mateo was suddenly stopped as a loud thud noise was heard followed by a chair toppling. Everyone looked towards the person who caused the disturbance and saw Payton standing with the palms of his hands firmly placed on the table. "Do you have something to say Payton?" Mateo said as half his face suddenly became shrouded in darkness.
"Vera DuChamp... I nominate Vera DuChamp." Payton said as he kept his gaze downwards. Ariana paled as she stared at Payton. "What are you doing?!" Ariana whispered, she firmly stated her opinion to Vera to not run but Payton went against her opinion and nominated her anyways. Payton stayed silent, clenching his hands into fists as he thought back to what Vera made him promised to do if there was a hint of Ariana being elected.
They both had a feeling that Ariana"s warning was not made up but they couldn"t bring themselves to see the members of the Student Council as malicious. However right before the meeting the Vice President himself to him to stay silent in the meeting. He didn"t want to believe it but the silent room fueled his doubts about the Council. They had their own agenda and he would not let them have their way.
"Vera... No. Not going to happen." Mateo said with a dark chuckle as he brought his head up. "What?! Why not?! You know just as well as anyone else the Vera has been working hard to be able to one day join the Student Council! This is a perfect opportunity to bring her back and allow her to work for the students." Payton argued but Mateo just raised his hands and shrugged. "We don"t particularly find it tasteful to have a disgraceful student run for Student Council. It"s her own fault for ruining her own reputation so forgive me for being so unkind but Vera will never be able to stand among us as a respectable Student Council member." Mateo replied as a smug look appeared on his face.
"Then Cayden Remo! I can nominate him!" Payton shouted. "What the f*ck did you just say?" Mateo said as his face twisted with disgust. "You want a delinquent who attacked our President numerous times to be part of the Student Council?" He spat as he stared down Payton. His gold and lavender rayed eyes turned ominous as veins popped out above his left eyebrow and neck. "Wait!" Ariana shouted as she stood up. Everyone turned their gazes towards Ariana. "I don"t think I understand the rules for nominating a student." Ariana said pitifully causing most to either groan or facepalm themselves.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
"Well that"s understandable! Freshmen are still babes that we need to be nurtured and cared for." Mateo said as an animalistic desire flashed in his eyes causing Ariana to involuntarily shiver. "Vice President if you don"t mind I would like to take the floor." A fair skinned, average height female said as she stood up. Her long, dark brown hair that practically looked black was tightly tied up into a high ponytail. The ponytail swayed dramatically as she moved from her seat to a standing position. She had a medium fringe, black, framed gla.s.ses and icy blue eyes. Her face was stern looking while her build was slender.
"By all means Secretary Milan. The floor is yours." Mateo said as his eyes moved to Milan. Ariana became disgusted, just from a glance everyone could tell that Vice President was openly undressing Milan with his eyes and she in turn didn"t care.
