Chapter 3 - School Life

I sat up hearing humming, I stood up and fallowed the humming to what I believe was Baldrick's bathroom. I bit my lower lip and place my hand on the wall and look through the small crack in the door seeing Baldrick facing away from the door with a towel around his waist. I blush and step back but trip on something, I gasp and covering my mouth as I waited for the impact of the floor to hit me. "Careful there princess" I felt wet arms holding me, I open my eyes seeing Baldrick shirtless above me. I blush slightly and look away "s-sorry, I-I just heard you humming and got curious" he smiles and sets me on the bed then I notice he still has a towel wrapped around his waist. I look away from him feeling my face heat up. I felt a hand on my arm and see Baldrick looking at me. "B-Baldrick?" "Sorry Princess" he backs up and goes back in the bathroom. "I will have Florence take you back to your room" I nod and stand up as I see Florence sitting on the bed looking at his feet. I smile slightly and put out my hand for Florence to take. He looked at my hand then at me, he smiled and took it leading me to my room.

I opened the door to my room to find it empty, I sighed in relief as Florence sat on the couch. I looked at my bed and saw a school uniform, A black skirt, white button up shirt, a red jacket with gold lining, black tights and red heals. I sigh picking it up heading to the bathroom. I shut the door then locked it, I let my hair down and rubbed my head "I hate having to sleep with my hair up" I sigh and undo my dress then my corset rubbing my sides and stomach looking down seeing red lines "I was told not to sleep in my corset, but I had no choice last night" I rub my lower back steeping in the warm bath smiling feeling the warm water take over my body. And not having the feeling of someone pulling my hair out is absolutely amazing.

After what felt like hours I get out wrapping my towel around myself and the other around my hair. I still saw Florence sitting on the couch, I smile and went over to my dresser looking at my corsets and under garments. I sigh not seeing my body corset "is there a problem princess?" I look up seeing Damon leaning against the wall across from me. I shake my head and look in the other drawers. "You two are late for breakfast" "I don't think I'll eat this morning" I take out one of my body corsets. "And why are you skipping breakfast?" "Just don't feel like eating" I close the drawer and look at him. "What is this may I ask princess?" I look up and see Alastair holding up one of my corset bras. I scream and grab it but he pulled it away. "Give it!" "Oh come on can't I try it on?" "No you can't!" "Why are you and Damon in here?" I look up and see Baldrick in the door way crossing his arms. "Ha! Got it!, now what is this and how do you put it on?" I felt my towel pull off of me, I look down and see I am completely naked. "Oh my god!" "Florence don't look!" I look up seeing Baldrick covering his and Florence eyes, Alastair looking at me his eye twitching and Damon was past out on the ground blood coming out of his nose. I look at Alastair and covered my chest and slapped him.

I look out the window my arms crossed still pissed at Alastair. "Oh come on princess, you can't stay mad at me forever" I didn't answer him I just scooted more away from him looking out the window. "Oh come on princess!" "Alastair I believe that she is avoiding you" "I know that Damon, I just don't know why!" "Probably because you made her towel literally rip off of her, and you just looked" "you looked too" "Yes... but I got a nose bleed" I rolled my eyes thinking about how many times a pervert prince tried seduce me. The carriage soon stopped and the door opened. The boys got out starting with Florence then ending with Baldrick, then a hand is put out for me to take, I sigh and take it stepping down. I look up and see a ancient looking building "hey Baldrick" "yes Alastair?" "You do know that the vampires and demons are gonna be all over her, right?" "What?" I look at them holding my new school bag close to my chest, Baldrick sighed rubbing his head and looked at me. "You are basically a bunny in a wolfs den here Dalila, I didn't think of masking her smell and sole before we left" "that I believe won't be necessary Mr. Hemlock" a mid aged lady walked down the steps of the ancient building smiling while wearing a skin-tight black dress that suited her very well and her hair in a bun with dark red shoes to match her lipstick. "Your highness, what a pleasure it is to have you at our school" I smiled and curtsied "the pleasure is mine ma'am" "and don't worry Mr.Hemlock, your father informed me about his trip and that we might have the one and only princess of the east come here so I planned ahead, and since you all are here ahead of schedule I will be more that glad then to talk in my office."

I walked in her office seeing the walls lined in a dark gothic damask flock wallpaper the base board a dark brown, two large body windows on the wall were her desk sat, a cupboard that was light brown along with her desk that was also light brown, there was a fireplace, a coat hanger that healed a single red dress coat. The windows dressed in a wavy cream and gold curtains, two comfortable looking chairs sat in front of her desk, her chair was a deep burgundy with black lining. "Now down to business" she sat in her chair and I sat in one of the chairs in front of her and Baldrick sat in the other one while the others stood behind us. "As I told you all outside, your father informed me that she might come here for a few weeks or so" "I understand that Ms. Constantine but we are more worried about her getting turned or her soul ripped out of her" "very understandable, but I strictly told both the staff and students that if they try taking her soul or lay a fang or even a finger on her that they will be punished severely" I look away seeing her eyes turn blood red. "But here is your class schedule, and I personally made sure that at lest one of you is in a class with her" I look at the paper seeing classes I never heard of before. "Can I ask what vampire sociological is?" "It's about the development, structure and functional of vampires" "she could probably be good at equestrian studies" "the study of horses?" I look at Baldrick "yes that is right" "I would love to be part of that" she nods and writes something down "I personally know the teacher so she would be more that happy to have you" she smiles sets her pen down. "Have a wonderful time here if there is anything you need please come to me your highness" I smile and stand up "thank you" I walk out Baldrick looking at my schedule. "You have Alastair 1st and 3rd" I look at Alastair who smiled at me "not at school Alastair" he groans and looks away. "You have Florence second, Damon fourth and fifth you have equestrian studies, then me in sixth..." I looked at him pausing. "She has non of us in seventh or eighth period" "what classes douse she have?" "Seventh she has Teleportation with Mr. Tereshkova witch isn't to bad..." "Baldrick?" "Um she has Blood lust and imprinting alone with Mr. Von Stein" they all went silent and looked at each other "why is this a problem?" "Um" Baldrick rubs the back of his neck "how do I put this" "he basically sucks the life out of humans" I stare at Damon blankly "he basically kills human" "I wouldn't say kill Mr.Hemlock" I look behind me and see a tall very pale man with white hair, red eyes and a back suite on, I get pulled close to Baldrick as they glare at him. "I was told that the princess was joining us for while" he bows taking my hand and kiss it smiling "Mr. Von Stein your highness a pleasure to have you in my class" I swallow my fear and smiled sweetly "the pleasure is mine sir Stein" he stands up and smiles "then I will see you in my eighth period your highness" he walked off and Baldrick turned me to face them, all of them looking sternly at me "yes?" "Don't trust him and don't ever look in his eyes" "may I ask why?" "One he kills human males for food, two he inslaves human females for sexual abuse" "don't ever get so close to him that he can touch you" I looked at Damon, and Alastair who looked the most serious. "Trust us Dalila, don't trust him" "he doesn't seem bad" "trust me he's bad." They look back at my schedule then look at each other, "I could take her to seventh, I am next to his class with Mr. Soloman, then teleport her to her eighth" "wait I thought Mr. Soloman teaches martial arts?" I look at Florence then at Damon. "He dose, but he also teaches blood lust and imprinting five" "oh" I hear a bell ring and Alastair grabbed my am and dragged me off to first period.

"We are going into a room full of vampires, so what ever you do don't look in anyone's eyes except mine and mr. Dashkov" "who?" "the teacher, his name is Mr. Dashkov, he teaches Dark arts for vampires and demons" I nod and starting to feel queasy knowing that I am going to be the only human in a vampire and demon only school. "A-Alastair" "yeah princess?" " you guys are gonna make sure I don't die?" "to be honest, if we didn't protect you our father would kill us, now do you understand to not look in anyone's eyes except mine and the teachers?" "yes I do" "good, now keep your head down" He grabbed my arm pushed the doors open and quickly walked to the front of the room, it looked like the royal court room in town center, having five rows of sets made of wood going from the top of the room to the bottom, then the teachers desk at to bottom in front of a whole all of book. Alastair sat me down near the wall then sat down next to me then I think he glared at the people behind us, all I could hear was him hiss. A well dressed middle aged man came in wearing sixteenth century clothes. "Good morning students, I have been in formed that we have a very special guest attending our school for the year, the very special Princess Dalila Marigold Victoria James from the east." I heard a snicker from a few, others ignored it, but I could already tell people were staring.
