Kinslee, I need you to be my guide in everything. What or who do I need
to know?” I stood, hands on hips, watching my housemate as she blew out a
breath, tapping her lip in thought.
“Nothing specific I can think of right now, but stick with me and you’ll
be fine. First, and most important, as you well know, there’s a big ‘welcome
back to uni’ house party tonight. That’ll be our first stop.”
“Sounds good.” I smiled, pulling my hair out of its messy bun, letting it
cascade down my back. “I can’t believe I’m really here, about to become an
official student.”
During the first year of my degree course, when I’d been a normal
university student in an ordinary university, the “accident” had happened, and
my entire world had been turned upside down. I’d managed to transfer to
Alstone College, a specialist business school, after months of back-and-forth,
endless paperwork, and assessment of my course credits to ensure I could
continue my studies going into my second year, rather than starting the first
year all over again. Of course, the money I’d paid hadn’t hurt. At Alstone,
money talked. That, and connections. A hundred grand, my mother’s new
surname dropped casually into conversation—as much as I hated to use it,
and my enrolment had suddenly been confirmed. Unfortunately, that had
used a huge chunk of my insurance money, so I’d need to be careful with my
spending.
After my transfer had been confirmed, I was ready. I had enough money
to get by, if I was careful. I’d used some of the remaining insurance money to
buy a phone, a laptop, other university essentials, and a compact car. My
housing was sorted—I’d paid for the entire academic year up front. I’d
scoured the online university noticeboard, and after viewing three different
sets of accommodation, I’d lucked out with Kinslee Stewart. A second-year
student like me, she had a two-bedroom apartment in a block right next to the
campus and had advertised for a housemate.
As soon as I’d met her, we’d hit it off. We’d spent the past week getting
to know each other, and I felt like I’d known her for years already.
I was beyond grateful that everything had seemingly fallen into place,
but, all that aside, I had to keep my end goal in mind. The only reason I was
now at Alstone College, rather than my previous university, was to
investigate my dad’s death. And unfortunately, that also meant reconnecting
with my mother. We hadn’t spoken in person for years, but after my dad had
died, my hand had been forced. I didn’t, for one minute, believe the accident
report regarding his death, and there were too many coincidences surrounding
my mother to ignore.
Until I got a chance to investigate everything, I’d throw myself into
university life. My dad wouldn’t have wanted anything to distract me from
getting my degree. He’d been so proud when I’d been accepted to study
business—he’d spent hours touring different universities with me and going
through the pros and cons of different degree courses and career paths.
