Forbidden Bloodline
The transfer boy
Elijah Rivers
(standing at the school gate, hugging his backpack)
💭 New school again… I hope nobody here is weird.
“Okay Elijah, don’t panic. Just survive today.”
Security guard
“You lost, small boy?”
Elijah Rivers
“I—I’m a new student, sir.”
The guard looks at him like he’s a cute lost puppy and waves him inside.
INSIDE THE SCHOOL
Students whisper immediately.
“Who’s the new guy?”
“He’s cute, omo.”
“Hope he can survive this school o… Valentino is around.”
Elijah frowns.
💭 Valentino? Is that cassava or surname?
He bumps into someone’s chest — a hard one.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
(stares down at him with cold eyes)
“You’re blocking my way.”
Elijah jumps back like he touched fire.
Elijah Rivers
“S–sorry! I didn’t see you. You’re too tall”
Oh God why am I talking too much
Leo raises one brow, annoyed and amused at the same time.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
You talk too much
He walks past Elijah, hands in pockets, like nothing happened.
Elijah watches him go.
💭 Why does he walk like he owns the whole world?
“Rude boy.”
Leo stops.
He heard that.
Slowly turns back.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
What did you say?
Elijah Rivers
“I—I said… M-mood boy! You look moody!”
**💭 God please strike me with lightning.
Leo looks at him for a long moment, then smirks.
Just a small one.
Barely visible.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
I’ll see you around …transfer boy
He walks away again.
Elijah stands frozen.
💭 Why is my heart beating like drum? Omo is this fear or something else?
**
Teacher
Everyone, meet our new student
Everyone already knows his name thanks to gossip speed.
Elijah sighs.
💭 Haaa… these people sef.
He sits down beside a quiet boy.
Kairo steel
You should avoid Leo
Kairo steel
He’s dangerous
Elijah Rivers
💭 Everybody is saying the same thing. Is he a lion or what?
Leo enters the class.
Students become silent immediately.
He walks straight to his seat… right behind Elijah.
Elijah stiffens.
Elijah Rivers
(whispering) “Why is he behind me?”
Kairo steel
That’s his seat
Elijah Rivers
💭 God, whyyyyyy.
Leo leans forward slightly.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
You smell like trouble
Class explodes in whispers.
Elijah buries his face in his textbook.
💭 If this boy doesn’t leave me alone, I will relocate to another planet.
Leo rests his chin on his hand, watching him.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
Interesting…..
"why is he looking at me?"
[CLASS CONTINUES – 9:45AM]
Elijah pretends to focus on the board, but his back is stiff.
Leo is sitting right behind him… staring.
Elijah Rivers
💭 This boy’s eyes are burning my neck. Abeg what did I do to him?
He slowly shifts to the left.
Leo’s chair also shifts.
Elijah freezes.
Moves right.
Leo shifts again.
Elijah Rivers
💭 Is he… following my movement??
The teacher suddenly calls him.
Elijah stands, opens his textbook, and reads.
His voice shakes a little.
Leo watches him with that unreadable expression, chin resting on his knuckles.
When Elijah finishes and sits down
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
You’re nervous
Elijah Rivers
“No I’m not. I just… breathe loudly sometimes.”
Elijah Rivers
💭 Oh God why am I like this.
Leo’s lips twitch slightly, like he’s fighting a smile.
BREAK TIME – SCHOOL CAFETERIA
Elijah sits alone, poking his food.
Elijah Rivers
💭 First day and I already embarrassed myself. I should hide inside the toilet.
Jayden (a cheerful boy) suddenly drops his tray next to him.
Jayden
Hi! You’re the transfer guy. I’m Jayden.
Jayden smiles too much, talks too fast, and somehow Elijah relaxes.
Jayden
So, how’s your first day?
Elijah Rivers
Well… I got threatened by a tall rude boy.
Jayden
Jayden blinks.
“Don’t tell me… Leo?”
Elijah nods like a suffering soul.
Jayden
*Jayden facepalms*
“Ah. Brother, you’re finished.”
Elijah Rivers
WHAT?? Why??
Jayden leans closer like he’s sharing life-and-death gist.
Jayden
Do you know who that boy is? He’s..
Before he can finish, the cafeteria becomes quiet.
Silent.
Dead quiet.
Leo walks in with Kai, his right-hand guy.
People literally shift out of their path.
Jayden
*Jayden whispers*
“That boy is the Valentino Mafia Prince.”
Elijah choke on his drink
Elijah Rivers
*COUGH*“Mafia WHAT???”
Jayden
**Jayden claps his back**
“Calm down. He won’t kill you… probably.”
Elijah Rivers
💭 Probably???
Leo’s eyes scan the cafeteria…
And land straight on Elijah.
He starts walking toward him.
Jayden
Oh no. He’s coming. You’re on your own, bro.
Jayden stands up and disappears like smoke.
Elijah grips his tray like a shield.
Leo stops in front of him.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
SIT
Elijah Rivers
I’m already sitting.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
I meant…don’t run away
Elijah Rivers
💭 Is he a human or a lion?? Why is he talking like that?
Leo pulls out the chair and sits opposite him.
People around whisper like they’re watching a Netflix series.
Elijah Rivers
W-what do you want?
Leo looks at him straight in the eyes.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
“You.”
The fork in Elijah’s hand drops
Leo leans slightly forward.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
I meant your attention
Elijah Rivers
💭 This boy will give me heart attack. Who talks like that?!
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
You’re not eating
Elijah Rivers
I lost my appetite
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
“Eat”
Elijah Rivers
I’m not hungry
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
You want to pass out in my class?
Elijah Rivers
💭 Ohhh this boy is bossy 😩
But he takes one bite.
Leo watches him, satisfied.
People around whisper:
“Why is Leo talking to him?”
“Who is that boy sef?”
“Is he Leo’s… type?”
Elijah Rivers
**Elijah covers his face**
💭 Somebody please dig ground for me to enter.
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
You’ll sit with me during lunch from now on.
Elijah Rivers
Ehn?? Why??
Leonard “Leo” Valentino
You’re interesting
Elijah Rivers
**Elijah almost faints**
💭 This is too much for Monday.
Leo stands up and leaves like he owns the cafeteria.
People start talking again.
Elijah slams his head gently on the table.
💭 God… why me?
