Hate to Love Colden

There's this monster living at Crestview Institute. He's ruthless, his heart is as cold as an iceberg, and he rules over everything and commands everyone to do his bidding. I don't know about that until it's too late. I've always had a positive outlook on life, but apparently, that was enough to piss him off.
I stand out too much for being the only black girl in the entire institute. Colden was always going to set his sights on me. Worse than that, he's making my life a living hell. Bullying doesn't even begin to describe it. And to make everything worse, my father has just disappeared and there are rumors that Colden might be involved with a local mob, the Venanzis.
I can't even think about retaliating, but... I still do.
