"Guardian Castile, get those seven to safety and protect them. We've certainly got company tonight." I told him stiffly and gestured at the other seven undergraduates."What are you talking about, Kai?" Ali frowned at me. I grabbed his collar and tugged him down so that I could whisper into his ear."There are friggin' Strigoi out there. I can smell blood, that means that the two guardians that you left here are now dead. Get those seven to safety.""You need to get to safety as well," he told me sternly."Just get them out of here. I've got this covered. I've lived here for the past six years, I know how this place runs and I know it like the back of my hand." I glared at him."You're not fighting with them." Ali scowled at me. "Brent, Johnson, get the eight kids out of here," he ordered."Wait, what?" Brent blinked in shock at the sudden order."Damn it, Ozera, make sure the dozing ones get the hell out of here fast!" I warned him with a desperate plea in my eyes."Take care of your
Love And Lies Chapter Thirty One
I had no idea who had carried me to bed but I didn't really care too much. I was thankful that no one had tried to wake me because I definitely needed that sleep. I was absolutely knackered with the combination of the tough soccer game and the fight after the after party. I didn't want to say anything before but I was already tiring during the fight and luckily I didn't just collapse in fatigue. I guess that adrenaline really was incredible during the most desperate of times.I got out of bed and took a quick shower. I felt gross since I was still wearing the clothes that I was partying and fighting in before and I stood under the shower head for at least ten minutes to sooth my tense muscles. During my time in the shower, I also mentally prepared myself for the long lectures that would undoubtedly ensue as a result of my stunt. While I may have been prepared for the lectures, I was certainly not expecting someone to sudden barge into my room and bathroom. I had barely managed to wrap

Once I was done making the drink, I headed back to Rosette's office with two mugs in hand. One was mine to fully waken my senses since I was still feeling a little drowsy and I could feel the ache in my head, either as a result of the drinks from the party, or from being hit in the head by a Strigoi. Either way, the drink would help replenish my energy before I had to face the rest of the school about my daring escape from the Academy and my boldness of dragging others with me, especially the four royals. They might have opted to follow me out of the academy of their own free will, but it was me who gave them such an opportunity. If it wasn't for me, I didn't think that any of them would have considered the fact that it would be very easy to sneak out of the Academy if you knew the right procedures to follow. I was certainly one of the people who knew the procedures, because I knew this school almost back to front. I might have been away for six years, but having been here for a week
Love And Lies Chapter Thirty Three
Drew stood above him with a cold condescending glare. He was glaring down at O'Connor as though he was nothing but a pesky bug. The intensity of that gaze was so powerful and so menacing that it even had me flinch."You bastard! You just hit me!" Nick shouted at Drew and pointed at him with an accusing finger."You didn't seem capable of shutting that filthy mouth of yours, so I did it for you." Drew told him frostily. "If you're as strong as you always claim to be, you would've been able to dodge that attack easily. The next time you intend to insult someone, think about where you stand first.""Where I stand? I might not have that high of a position at this school compared to you, but it's certainly higher than hers! She's nothing but a conniving slag who has you all wrapped around her finger! There's no way that she would've fairly gotten your attention unless she offered something that you wanted!" Nick argued furiously.Wind suddenly whirled past me and pushed against Nick, forci

The walk to Guardian Brooks' Vampire 101 lesson was relatively eventful with Els gushing with excitement. When we actually got to the lesson, silence dawned on the class and everyone turned to stare at me."Ah, so little miss runaway has finally decided to grace our lesson." Guardian Brooks commented. Although his words weren't very nice and seemed very sarcastic, there was something in his tone that seemed different. His tone certainly didn't seem to match with his choice of words. It was like he was putting on some kind of a sarcastic front without meaning to or something. This certainly wasn't the same stiff and demonic Guardian Brooks that I remembered."Pleasure to see you too, sir." I replied with a similar tone of voice to match his."You seem to be the hero of the class, Valentine. You must've been prepared for the outside world.""Sir, I've lived in the outside world for the past six years, it's nothing alien to me." I retorted as politely as I could but it was hard."Well th

From then until the end of training, I made sure that I wasn't alone with Eric again. After what happened during our little spar, I was still somewhat confused about what had really happened back there. There was no reason why I should've lost that fight. Perhaps it was the constant fights that I'd had recently with the Strigoi and I hadn't fully recovered my body's strength yet. That must've been it. That would explain why my body seemed to be moving a little slower than usual.When the lesson ended, it was no surprise when Eric strolled towards me. What I was not expecting was such an intense stare from him. It was a gaze that seemed to hold a promise of a continuum of what had nearly happened between us had Tom not interrupted us. I pushed down the surprise that I felt and simply gave him a cheeky smile."Well it sure looks like someone got a little over excited during our lesson." I winked playfully at him."What can I say? Attractive girls have that effect on me," he shrugged."Y

Eric took my advice and headed for the feeders. The game had ended with a draw and everyone headed for lunch. I easily found my usual table and sat down beside Ingrid. Els wasted no time in asking questions."What happened? I thought you were hooking up with Eric?""I was and I already have. He's gone to the feeders." I told her."So? What happened?" Roxy asked curiously. "Are you guys together yet?""Apparently so." I nodded."Apparently?""Well we came to an understanding that we'll try it for a while and see how it goes. It is only my second week after all so I'm not really all that sure about committing just yet.""But you are going out." Ingrid asked."Yes.""Congratulations!" the three girls squealed and threw their hands up in the air in delight."What's the cheer about?" Dan asked curiously as he sat at the table. Soon the other three royals joined him."Don't you guys have to feed?" I arched my brows at them."Already done." Jacks shrugged."So what was with the commotion?" Q
Love And Lies Chapter Thirty Seven
The loud chatter quietened as Aunty Jules led me through the crowd of people which had split down the middle like Moses and the Red Sea. People fell silent or resorted to using low whispers instead as I walked past them. Somewhere in the crowd I noticed the girls and I noticed the encouraging smiles that they were giving me. Their smiles and encouragement made me feel more confident and more reassured that this was going to be fine.Yes, there was a large crowd, but technically, all I had to do was just lie there while the tattoo artist etched some symbols onto the base of my neck, right? That was all that I had to do, right? The more I tried to remember what the ceremony was actually like from the memory of having attended one once when I was much, much younger, the more the images of the event that day escaped me. No matter how hard I tried to remember that day, I just couldn't.I had to guess that it was because it was incredibly boring that I couldn't actually remember much about
