Chapter 35 - Your body and power

Hosea and Jonie went out to the cafeteria leaving only Dela and Layla in the classroom. Layla also entered the room later after she went to take a look at their cafeteria and other things.  Even though she was also Dela's guardian and was supposed to be by his side day in and out, she thinks it is also necessary to give him a bit of space for himself. She didn't want him to feel uncomfortable with her around him at the time.

As she walked into the classroom the boys started drooling and murmuring among themselves.

"I wish, she will just wink at me for seconds".

"same here, look at those cute pink lips. it will taste like a red wine I guess".

"she looks like the hottest girl on earth".

"I thought Lily and Hosea were beautiful, but I didn't imagine that I will one day meet a venus girl ".

Dela hissed and scoffed when he heard their conversation. "hmm..in your stupidity minds, demons, and vampires ". he muttered under his breath.

"In whose stupidity minds?". Layla asked, startling him from behind. 

"oh, my you scared me". Dela said as he looked at the beauty in front of him.

(they are not wrong too. I guess she is). he thought still watching her.

"Hey, are you alright?". Layla asked and seat down.

"ooh, I'm alright". he lied while he was stealing glances at her.

"what are you doing now!". Layla asked and took his hands from the book.

"copying note?". she asked again.

"Yeah, I'm copying it for you, since you just came you may need it for reversing and learning". he said and looked back in the book and continue writing.

"how about I help you". she asked.

"don't worry I'm okay". he said and smiled.

"Hmm..you look cute when you are out of words". Layla read his mind.  Dela was out of words and doesn't know what to say next.

"How did you know that was what I was having in mind?". he asked, looking at her surprisedly.

"I can read your thoughts or sometimes I heard it in my head as if I'm thinking with you".

" Wow, but why can't I read yours?" He asked.

" I don't know ". Layla said.

" You don't know, Hosea too doesn't know. Then who knows?". He asked with his eyes twisted upwards.

" Maybe when you go to the library again, you should ask about it". She said.

" Okay ".

Lily entered only to see Layla and Dela laughing happily together. She sighed and left. She wanted to ask if Dela would like to go for some ice cream after school, but she couldn't do that. Because Layla and the rest are with him all the time.

Their break was over and they all got back into their various classes.

The students were having science, their teacher entered the class and they all got up and greet her. She responded and turned to the marker board and wrote 'science test' on the board. The student gasped. Then they begin to murmur among themselves.

" Why as she wrote that? She just came to school yesterday?". Layla asked, Dela and Hosea.

" Yes she just resumed school yesterday and she is already giving a class test". Dela said and Layla stood up.

" Ma, please why have you written a class test when we aren't aware of it". She said and the whole class turned dumb.

" What nonsense are you asking me? Are you not a student, don't you supposed to be prepared all the time?". The teacher said with her eyes widened.

" Yes we are, but you are supposed to tell us so that we will be aware and be prepared to solve it". Layla said, Dela and Hosea also stood up.

" Yes, ma what she is saying is true, you also suppose to tell us about it so that we would be aware". Dela said.

" Ooh, I know you will talk too..are you three trying to challenge me or what?". She said, looking angry. She thought that she can scare them with her angry face but she was wrong they rather scared her.

" No, ma we are not challenging you but. ". Hosea was interrupted by the teacher.   

" Shut up! Are you three not new comers? So you know the school rules and regulations more than I do? The rules say teachers have the right to conduct any test they want in the class and also is mandatory for you student to be prepared for any school activities".  The teacher said.

" Yes as is your right to conduct anything you want, is our right to choose whether to do it or not.. class are you ready to do any test!". Dela shouted and the class chorused.

" No!!". They started murmuring again.

The teacher stumbled back with shame, thinking that she will go away but her pride took over her.

" The three of you, follow me to the principal office". She said thinking that they would be afraid but rather they followed her to the office.

Immediately they entered, Mr. Ling knew why the teacher as entered his office with the three of them.

" Sir these three students here have disorganized my class because I was about to write a class test for them". She said and crossed her hands together on her chest.

" So!". Mr. Ling said and the teacher gasped.

" So? They just disorganized my..". Mr. Ling cut her off and sent her out of his office.

" My friend will you shut up and walk out!". He had said.

He then turned and looked at them. Hosea knew what he wanted, and that was why he sack the teacher without letting her explain herself.

" You can go". He ordered them to go and they went away.

" Wow, your principal is such a nice person ". Layla said and Hosea laughed while Dela just stopped walking and watched her.

" Why are you behaving strangely?". She asked.

" Hmm..if you know who he is, you won't ever let him anywhere near you and Dela". Hosea said.

" But why?".

" He is an Alpha of the Vampires". Dela said and Layla gasped.

" What! Are you guys sure?". She said with her eyes widened.

" Why will we lie to you". Hosea said. At this point, she stopped laughing and Dela also started walking and they went away to their classroom. Immediately they entered, Collins stood up and walked out of the class.

Collins went to the boy's washroom and sat on the bench in front of the washroom. Suddenly someone appeared to him immediately he sat down.

" King Drake!". He said and gasped. 

" Come down, Collins. I'm not here to hurt you, at least not now. You are having something that I need to carry out my mission up here". He said.

" Please what is it?". Collins asked fearfully.

" Your body and powers". King Drake smiled mischievously and Collins moved back.

" No, I won't allow anyone to possess my body again ". Collins snapped.

"Haha..did this fearful boy snap at me?". He asked the substitute he came with.

"Yes, he did master ". He said and stood still.

"Anyway, I don't need permission to enter your body. I will do it anyway". King Drake said.

"Stay back, I'm not afraid of you anymore ". Collins said and moved back little by little.

"Haha, your body is telling me something else. I can feel your fear and that is what makes me strong". King Drake said and approached Collins who moved back.

" I will never make that mistake again". Collins said and disappeared.

" Arrgh!! That small rat! Get him..make sure you come with him, if you don't find him don't come back here". King Drake ordered.

" As you wish ". He said and bowed then disappeared.

King Drake smirked and rubbed his hands together.

" Let me go and see the so call heir in person". He said and turned invisible.

" Stop behaving like a dumb Luca, you only have some three days left then you would be back to normal". Steve said mockingly.

" I can't wait for any damn three days to come". Luca snapped in his wheelchair.

" But there is nothing we can do about it, the spell does what you sent it to do". Aziz said.

" I won't have sent it for a long time if I had known that it will backfire on me!". Luca yelled.

" But it backfires on you and there is nothing we can do about it. It doesn't have an antidote. All we need to do is to wait for it to wear out especially you Luca". Steve said.

Luca groaned.

" I will make sure that beasts pay for what he did to me".

" But obviously, you did this to yourself ". Steve said and rolled his eyes.

" Can you stop being sharp tongue at this time?". Aziz asked.

" I just can't help with his arrogance ". Steve said.

" Hmm..it may be me today, but I'm waiting for yours Steve. You better not get on my bad bedside". Luca warned.

" How I wished the poison had paralyzed your mouth as well". Steve chuckled and went out.

" You!". Luca yelled but he had already gone.

THE DEMONS COVEN

Queen Lucinda groaned after King delivered the message to her.

" Hey, you mean it backfired?". She asked.

" Of course my queen it did". King answered.

The Queen sprung up from her seat and held her scepter firmly.

" Hmm..I warned this boy to be smart, careful, and calculative but he wouldn't listen to me. And as for those two people, Dela and Hosea they won't go unpunished ". She huffed.

" What do you want me to do to them?". King asked.

" You don't need to do anything now, leave that Dela to me and deal with his guardian ". She said.

" As you wish your majesty ". He bowed.

" You can go". She ordered and king bowed and vanished.

***

Collins was able to walk passed Bunny who Drake sent without him seeing him. He quickly turned visible and entered the classroom. He hurried to his seat and picked up his school bag.

" Where are you going?". Hosea asked.

" I want to go home, I haven't been feeling well". He lied and hung his bag on his shoulders and walked away, but Hosea followed him.

After Hosea left, Layla also went to check on Jonie so it was only Dela who was sitting alone in the class. seeing that, king walked up to him and seat beside him.

"What do you want?". Dela asked.

"This is where I sit". He said.

"Ooh, I forgot you gave me this seat so you can take it anytime you want. And maybe you will find someone like yourself who will come and sit beside you". He said and packed his things. Just when he was about to walk away, king held his hand.

"Dela please you are getting it all wrong". King said.

"What did you just say? That you lied to me?". He asked.

"I never lied to you". King defended.

"You were a demon but you didn't even bother to talk to me. On My first day at school you saw it that I was new to my powers but you never told me about it.  Was it because you also want to use my powers?". Dela asked in a way that people won't hear them.

"No, you have to believe me. I didn't know how you will take it if I had told you about it and I also didn't know the type of supernatural being you were. I wanted to tell you, I never wanted to hide anything from you". King said.

"Hmm..looks like I will believe you. You are always with Luca who kept on plotting bad things against me".

"Hmm..that is because I'm his mother's servant. His mother's maid. I wasn't even aware of his plot this time, Dela. I don't want you to get hurt. You are the only friend I had since I got into this school and you came". He said and tears started running down his cheeks.

"I'm the only friend? What about Luca?". Dela asked.
