Riverview High Chapter 1 A new beginning

Chapter 1:

The sleek black Mercedes S-Class purred through the grand wrought-iron gates of Riverview High, the prestigious ivy-covered buildings emerging into full view like gothic monarchs surveying their impeccably manicured domain. Alex Torres felt her stomach knot with a potent mix of nerves and determination as she peered out the tinted window, taking in the sprawling emerald lawns and meticulously landscaped gardens that seemed to stretch eternally towards the glistening ocean on the horizon.

This elite private school represented a new chapter in her life, one brimming with uncharted possibility but also fraught with risk. Riverview was a world away from the shadows, unanswered questions, and tormented memories of her past that still haunted her daily like persistent phantoms. Yet there was an enigmatic, nearly magnetic pull about this place that had gnawed at Alex relentlessly until she could no longer resist its siren call. If she was ever to unravel the tangled web of her fractured history and confront the truth she'd been desperately seeking, it seemed fated to begin within these hallowed halls.

As the luxurious town car rolled to a smooth stop, Alex drew in a steadying breath. She knew transferring to Riverview was a gamble, perhaps even foolish given the secrecy and peril surrounding her previous life. But the prospect of finally laying her demons to rest made the plunge into this cloistered realm of wealth, privilege, and societal influence worth the uncertainty.

Offering her thanks to the driver, Alex slipped out of the car and onto the sun-dappled cobblestone drive, the crisp ocean breeze whipping tendrils of her long chestnut hair across her face. She drank in her new environment with a furrowed brow, unable to shake the ominous undercurrent flowing just beneath the surface of Riverview's immaculate facade.

The rolling emerald quads and lush gardens were pristinely manicured, practically glowing with the affluence of the school's old-money patrons. Stately brick buildings exuded an aristocratic air of history and tradition, their Gothic spires and arched windows like unblinking eyes hinting at the countless secrets kept locked away over generations. Oak trees as ancient as the Founding Fathers stood as silent sentries, their gnarled branches extending crooked fingers as if beckoning one closer to unveil the institutionalized skeletons in their closets.

Despite the picturesque beauty surrounding her, Alex's instincts screamed at her to keep her guard up. There was something not quite right, a malevolent specter lingering behind the gleaming veneer. She could sense it in the way the other students seemed to prowl the grounds in packs, their gestures and whispers guarded, frequent glances cast over their shoulders watchful and calculating. At Riverview High, it appeared that no one's intentions were transparent as they let on.

Clutching the strap of her well-worn backpack tighter, Alex headed towards the main administrative building - an imposing edifice of weathered stone that practically oozed institutional power and privilege. She knew all too well the importance of treading cautiously in this insular world where status was akin to a capital offense and scrutinizing gazes silently judged your every move. Like the building tension in the coiled metal of a tightly wound spring, she could feel the threat ready to unleash at even the slightest misstep.

But Alex Torres was no stranger to seeing beyond carefully constructed facades and walking the precarious line between what was brazenly visible and what skulked in the shadows. Her time had finally come to unearth the long-obscured truth, no matter how deeply buried or heavily fortressed it may be. Steeling her resolve, she ascended the granite steps and crossed the threshold into the sanctum of Riverview High, leaving the innocence and naivete of her former life behind for good.

For seventeen years, I was the crown jewel of the Kensington empire, the perfect daughter groomed for a royal future. Then, a cream-colored envelope landed in my lap, bearing a gold crest and a truth that turned my world into ice. The DNA test result was a cold, hard zero percent-I wasn't a Kensington. Before the ink could even dry, my parents invited my replacement, a girl named Alleen, into the drawing room and treated me like a trespasser in my own home. My mother, who once hosted galas in my honor, wouldn't even look me in the eye as she stroked Alleen's arm, whispering that she was finally "safe." My father handed me a one-million-dollar check-a mere tip for a billionaire-and told me to leave immediately to avoid tanking the company's stock price. "You're a thief! You lived my life, you spent my money, and you don't get to keep the loot!" Alleen shrieked, trying to claw the designer jacket off my shoulders while my "parents" watched with clinical detachment. I was dumped on a gritty sidewalk in Queens with nothing but three trunks and the address of a struggling laborer I was now supposed to call "Dad." I traded a marble mansion for a crumbling walk-up where the air smelled of exhaust and my new bedroom was a literal storage closet. My biological family thought I was a broken princess, and the Kensingtons thought they had successfully erased me with a payoff and a non-disclosure agreement. They had no idea that while I was hauling trunks up four flights of stairs, my secret media empire was already preparing to move against them. As I sat on a thin mattress in the dark, I opened my encrypted laptop and sent a single command that would cost my former father ten million dollars by breakfast. They thought they were throwing me to the wolves, but they forgot one thing: I'm the one who leads the pack.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.
