Mikayla wake up at noon. He slept really well. When he wakes up his nose is filled with the smell of rose stronger than last night. He awake but did not find anyone in the room. He opens the door but only found a young servant boy sitting on a chair beside the door.
"Young Master, you have wake up. My name is Jason, I will be attending you today. It is a precaution to make sure your smell did not mix with other odour." said Jason as he bows to Mikayla.
"Ah! So I can't meet other people and have to stay in this room today?" said Mikayla with his hands folded on his chest.
"Yes, Young Master," said Jason.
"What is the difference between you and other servants? Why can't Rinne serve me?" said Mikayla while scrutinizing Jason. As he sees there is no difference between him and Rinne.
"Rinne is a lower class vampire. You probably didn't notice that his odour is actually has a hint of human smell on him. Mostly the other servants come from the lower class. All of them can taint your odour," said Jason.
"Then you are an upper-class servant? It is impossible!" said Mikayla not believing his own thought.
"Hahaha. Young Master, not all upper-class vampire comes from noble lineage. As long as our bloodline is not tainted then we are an upper-class vampire." said Jason.
"Err! My bad. Then as my servant why are you waiting outside? You can wait in the room."
"To minimizes your contact in order to retain the rose smell on your body," said Jason.
Mikayla's mouth twitches to the right. (Haih! this whole smell thing is too bothersome.) He enters the room followed by Jason. Jason prepares his meal and after taking another rose bath he enjoyed his meal. Luckily he didn't have to eat rose as a salad but he still has to drink rose water.
Mikayla spends his time reading some books and revise on the guest that will be coming tonight. It will be an embarrassment if he is unable to recognize an important guest tonight. He will not give them any chances to find any fault in him.
At night, the guest has slowly flooded the banquet. Due to the Blade family prestige, they are famous in the noble circle. The guest is shocked to hear that they will have an adopted child from other races. They will see themselves who is the rat that trying to sneak into their ranks. The nobles of vampire are proud, they cannot tolerate anything like this.
Mikayla now waiting beside the stairs. When Grandpa Gregory calls his name he will descend from the stairs. He is nervous and breathing heavily. Jason pats Mikayla back to calm him. Mikayla glances towards Jason and expresses his gratitude by nodding his head.
Hearing his name being called, Mikayla descends the stairs slowly but powerful by emitting his pressure. It is to tell the guest, "This is me! I am not someone you can mess with." His nervous is nowhere to be seen. He is now a proud noble.
The guest turns to see the so-called adopted son. When Mikayla descend the stairs, the sweet smell of rose intoxicating the guest. What a beautiful smell, they pay their attention towards Mikayla. Long black hair passed his shoulder that being tied with golden ribbon complements with his amber eyes. His white skin is not pale like the vampire but there is a hint of redness on his cheeks. The baby fat on his face reduce his handsomeness but increase his cuteness. It invokes motherly instinct of some vampires.
Mikayla continues to walk in the middle of the banquet hall to the stage. He walks with confidence and there is a small smile on his lips. One of the young noble has a playful smile on his face and stretch his leg in front when Mikayla coming towards him. Mikayla stumbles to the front and when all the guest thought he will fall with his face to the ground, Mikayla does a body flip and land nicely. The guest and the young noble are left agape while Mikayla continues to the stage.
"Hello everyone, I'm Mikayla Blade, son of the Alaric Blade," said Mikayla and bow towards the guest.
Tristan is satisfied with Mikayla performance. After a brief introduction and have dinner, Alaric starts to introduce Mikayla to the guests. While having a small chat with the other guest he can see that there is a bit of contempt in their eyes, especially from the older vampires. The younger ones are easier to talk with. He talks a lot of things with the younger vampires like where did they go to hang out or what is the latest trend fashion. It just a casual talk but it enables them to break the ice.
"Hmm, Mikayla right?" said Baldovino. Mikayla turns around to see the boy. That boy has beautiful brown-red hair and his beautiful red eyes are captivating. The paleness of his skin makes his overall feature is mesmerizing. He is like a beautiful ice sculpture. Mikayla knows this boy, he is the one that stretches his leg before this.
"Yes, I am," said Mikayla with a smile on his face. He did not show any anger towards Baldovino.
"About the leg, ehemm, thing before this, I'm sorry," said Baldovino while scratching the back of his head.
"How is my body flip? It's awesome right," said Mikayla.
"Ehh! Ah! yeah, it's awesome. Wait! you are not angry with me? said Baldovino.
"Angry? For what? If not because of you, I unable to show my cool side," said Mikayla and shrugged his shoulder.
"This, well I was trying to make fun of you," said Baldovino with a squeaky voice. He feels ashamed. He just frustrated because his father keeps asking him to be nice with Mikayla that is why he has the urge to "play" with Mikayla.
Mikayla knows that Baldovino did not have a bad intention, he just a playful person. In this few months after having spartan training with his magic instructor he able to use his eyes to differentiate people intention based on their aura. When Rinne knows about his eyes, he is kneeling for three days to ask for forgiveness. The other servants start to behave more careful in front of him.
"It's okay. Baldovino Ambrose, the third son of Duke Carden. Nice to meet you," said Mikayla while extending his hand for a shake.
"You know me?" said Baldonivo but at the same time, he shakes hand with Mikayla.
"Of course, father has told me about you. He has been telling me to befriend with you because he and Duke Carden are best friends," said Mikayla and gesturing his hand towards the corner to sit. They could talk with a little bit of privacy there.
Baldovino follows him. He called the waiters and ask for one glass of blood juice and one glass of fruit juice. He gives Mikayla the fruit juice.
"Your old man also tells you to befriend with me? I thought that I'm the only one. Huh!" said Baldovino and drink his blood juice.
"Yes. He told me that the third son of Duke Carden is at the same age as me. So, he reminds me to make you as my friend." said Mikayla.
"I'm just frustrated with my father and when I see you..." said Baldovino.
"It's okay, why don't we start from fresh. Starting with the introduction. Hello, my name is Mikayla Blade and you are?" said Mikayla.
Baldovino surprise that Mikayla is such an easy-going person. "Oh! I'm Baldovino Ambrose, nice to meet you."
Both of them chat on various things from hobby to having a girlfriend. Baldovino then drags Mikayla to meet his friends and this has helped Mikayla to mingle with others.
There are a few guests that strolled in the rose garden. They look like they are about eighteen to nineteen years old. They are laying on the grass while gazing at the stars and moon. They did not interested in meeting Mikayla. To them, Mikayla is just an outsider that tries to enter their circle. Plus, Mikayla is not even a vampire why would they waste their breath talking with Mikayla.
The night breeze blows towards them. An exotic odour can be smell. It also has a hint of human smell. They are a young vampire and still unable to control their urge to feed on blood. Smelling the blood smell they look at each other and start tracing the smell.
In the room on the third floor. Luna and Stella are crawling together. They seem to have a crawling race. The maid just monitor them and did not disturb them. Rinne comes with mash potato. The twins once again having a crawling contest and race towards Rinne. Stella stumble and falls. Luna stops and talks to Stella in baby language. Probably asking whether she is okay or not.
Rinne and the maid smile seeing the twins interaction, the maid holds Stella and check on her. Seeing that Stella is alright, they start feeding the twins. During feeding the twins, the maid knocked the glass on the table and it smashes to the ground. Rinne left arm is cut protecting the twins from the flying pieces of the glass but it did not manage to protect the twins completely. The twins get cut from the flying pieces of the glass. Stella right leg is cut and Luna, his right hand is cut. They are crying because of the pain. Rinne is coaxing the twins saying that it is only a little cut. The maid runs to search for a medical kit.
Six young vampire lands on the balcony of the twin's room.
"A half-vampire and two non-human children. What a great smell. Even though the children blood is a bit weird but they still smell delicious. I never taste on other species blood. Right guys!" said Damien.
"Yeah! lovely...lovely blood," said Lefu with his eyes shinning looking at the blood. The others show eagerness just like Damien and Lefu.
