The Club (1)

Nathaniel was walking down the Red Palace's corridors, heading to the cafeteria. After spending his morning practicing and following classes, he usually met with his friends, Natasha and Karl, to have lunch at the cafeteria.

However, this was no longer true since a couple of days ago, screenshots of their conversations and hot pictures about Nathaniel and Natasha started circulating among the peasant-ranked students, and the three drifted apart. The rumors and gossip had caused a rift in their friendship, and Nathaniel now felt alone and excluded. He couldn't help but wonder who was behind the leak and what they hoped to gain from it, but he had a hunch that Erik was behind it.

Even though he was wealthy and believed everyone to be beneath him, he decided to eat where everyone else did. He didn't go into some high-class restaurant to be served like the king he believed he was; that was weird.
