Chapter 2: The Targets

  Two days after making my deal with Nerissa, I went back to school. That Sunday I slept inside my room the entire day since Nerissa tired me out completely. I even had to convince her to let me sleep Sunday since she wanted to continue our previous night but after some debate, she settled for some naked cuddling, and she requested to be the little spoon.

  But on Monday, I got dressed, showered, and headed to school. I couldn't help but think by what Nerissa was going to do to 'change my life'. Like what exactly did that mean and how would she do it?

  So, as I sat down on my phone waiting for css to start, he walked in...

  Alex Murphy. My 'best friend' or at least that's what he used to be. He walked in, waved at everyone with his usual smile. Alex was easily the most popur boy in our css with perfect grades, great at sports and everything handed to him on a silver ptter. Not to mention... his harem.

  Alex sat down at his desk which was two seats in front of mine and got his books ready for the day, and a few minutes ter...they walked in.

  Sarah Parker. My next-door neighbor and childhood friend. She was always extremely kind and generous which is what made me like her so much. She waved at everyone and sat next to Alex before giving him a hug and a peck on the cheek. She then turned to me and gave me a smile and wave which I naturally returned. Internally however, I was pnning on what I could do to steal her away from him.

  You see, as the best friend of both Alex and Sarah, I became the person that the two vented to whenever things were going wrong. Whenever there was an argument or a problem with the harem, I'm the one that texted with them all night long letting them voice their frustrations. Which meant I was the only one privy to certain information about their retionship.

  Then a minute ter, the door opened again.

  Chelsea Greenridge. The school's rich girl. Her father was CEO of some pharmaceutical corporation so to say she had money would be an understatement. She was pretty easy going and had a rge friend group. She was almost perfect, problem is, what people don't know about her, when she's around someone she doesn't like she's a complete bitch and isn't exactly the brightest bulb in the shed if you get my meaning. Now you may ask, how is she passing csses despite having crap grades? Well, her father donated 10 million dolrs to the school over the past three years. Enough said.

  She walked over to Sarah and Alex, sitting on the opposite side of Alex. She was never exactly my biggest fan; I couldn't tell you why to be honest, I barely talked to her, but she hated me. Even tried getting Sarah to cut me off completely but luckily, she declined to do so.

  And stly...for now.

  Alice Williams. The smartest girl in the css and probably the whole school. She's pretty quiet and isn't all that expressive but she wasn't mean or anything. In fact, junior year, we worked on a project together and we worked together pretty well. From what I know about her, her mother passed when she was wrong, and her father struggled most of his life just to put food on the table. Which maybe something I can use....

  Had my thought process already been corrupted? Honestly who knows. I've always had these thoughts but since meeting Nerissa, it's as if those thoughts went to the forefront of my mind.

  Now question is, who do I corrupt first? While Sarah would be a good option because she's who I always wanted, she is also my only source of information to the workings inside the Harem. So as much as it sucked, I needed her to remain there for now. But both Chelsea and AliceI had ins with. Problem is, in order to get in I would need to make another deal but not with a devil this time...but with my father.

  You see many people know I live alone, and my parents are never around, but what they don't know is, my father is a big-time investor with millions of dolrs being used in several major corporations, including Chelsea's fathers' company. Now you may ask, if my family is so rich, why am I living alone in a one-story house in the middle of nowhere?

  Well after my st middle school year, my father asked me if I wanted to be part of his company, which I declined. At the time, I just wanted to be with my friends and have a good time. Now however...things were different.

  So, I brought out my phone and texted my father.

  We need to talk. Call me after school.

  It was one thing I didn't want to do initially but in order for this whole pn to succeed, I'm going to need his influence.

  He soon responded with sure. Meaning it was nearly time to get things in motion and after a couple more minutes, our homeroom teacher arrived, and csses began. After a few hours of csses, lunch had started, and our entire css headed to the cafeteria.

  I sat alone as per usual as Alex's harem had officially gathered, all at his table.

  Sienna Watson. The star of our school's female basketball team. She's very kind and generous and always puts others before herself. I've met her a few times while helping out the student council with some things and she's always been kind to me. And speaking of the student council...

  The final girl, Student Council President, Lily Hewitt. She was admired by all as the responsible but quite beautiful and sociable council president. She was even this schools first ever freshman student council president. That's how much influence she had over the school. She would be the most difficult one out of the five to conquer.

  Pretty much every guy in the school looked at Alex with jealousy. He was surrounded by five beautiful girls, who could bme them? I even heard rumors of some guys trying to convince their girlfriends to create a harem...let's just say a lot of retionships ended because of that.

  As I sat there and ate my...well, whatever counts as food in the school's cafeteria. Sarah stood up from Alex's table and walked over to mine.

  Sarah: Y/N... why are you sitting alone?

  Y/N: Oh well...you know me. I prefer it like this.

  Sarah: Why don't you sit with the rest of us? It would be fun.

  Y/N: I'm good Sarah, but thank you for caring.

  Sarah: Of course...I'll text you ter okay?

  Y/N: Sure.

  Sarah looked at me with some sadness in her eyes before returning to Alex's table. She was always kind to me, and I always returned the favor. It's why she feels so ready to open up to me when we text at night and soon, I would use every little bit of information I had gotten to take advantage of the situation. The only question was who to target first.

  After lunch we all returned to css until the end of the day when I returned home. I walked to my room and immediately dialed my fathers number.

  Father: So... what is it that you want?

  Y/N: I'm in.

  Father: ...Come again?

  Y/N: What we discussed all those years ago, I've changed my mind. I'll become the official heir to the company.

  Father: You've finally come around. Your mother would be pleased.

  Y/N: But I have one request.

  Father: ...Speak.

  Y/N: I will live out my senior year normally, same house and without divulging my identity. Then during graduation I'll officially get on board, I also request assistance.

  Father: Assistance with what?

  Y/N: Well...you know how you've been searching for a marriage partner for me?

  Father: Yes? I have several suitable candidates lined up-

  Y/N: I have my own ideas. And I think you'd like it.

  Father: Hmm....expin.

  Y/N: I will. In time. Just trust your son for once.

  Father: I've always trusted you...despite your decisions. Very well, the companies' resources are at your disposal.
