The God that was standing in front just stared at our table. I knew that he was watching Blake but I still couldn't get rid of the feeling that he was staring at me. Observing me. Did he know I was powerless? Was I some kind of weird creature to everyone here?
Zavier looked at our table one more time before he was looking at everyone. He held his head up high, like he was looking down at everyone.
Nobody had the relaxed demeanor that they had when we walked in earlier. Everyone was on edge. It felt like there was alot of tension in the room.
"As most of you may know I'm the God of the Future and I can see things before they happen. So let that be a reminder that I will know before you decided to magically learn something and the punishment will be severe. The high kings laws are not to be looked at lightly. Just like skipping classes or leaving all together." Zavier stated right as he looked at me with a raised eyebrow.
Did he know I wanted to leave? Did I leave even though I knew it was against the law? "I'm guessing you left even though I said you couldn't." Blake whispered in my ear. I went ridged as he scrutinized me the more he stood up front.
"So Blake can't use magic either than." The same girl stated with attitude. I was suprised she was confident enough to even bring it up. I wasn't the only one who couldn't believe her outburst. A few of the Goddesses went Ridgid.
"Cherry." A Goddess that was in front of the girl snapped. Cherry was a different name.
"What, is it against the law to bring up facts? Or did king Alexander decide that us peasants were no longer worthy of even speaking?" She asked with sass that had me going wide eyed. Did they allow us to talk about the king like that?
Zavier actually chuckled. A very dark chuckle that had the girl with the pink hair pale. I don't think she thought that through. Theres no way she thought it through.
"Omg. I didn't mean that, I promise you I didn't." She rushed to apologize. Tears were streaming down her face and I couldn't help but wonder what was going to happen. Would the high king be okay with her loose mouth?
Zavier snapped his fingers and within an instant another Goddess came teleporting in. What was happening?
"Where's your brother?" Zavier asked the Goddess with beautiful chestnut hair. She was so beautiful and I couldn't help but be jealous. She looked like the human mother nature. Her hazel eyes sparkled as she took in the room.
The smile that she made was even more beautiful. She seemed like a true ball of sunshine.
"He's busy and sent me. I'm actually happy I came. I mean my day was made instantly." She gloated with a huge smile. Definitely a ball of sunshine. I wish I could be as perky as her.
"Chasity. Watch it." Zavier demanded. What was with all the gods and their bipolar behavior? She didn't do anything wrong.
Chasity didn't take his warning and actually started laughing. Full blown laughing. If this was how my life would be I didn't see anything wrong with it.
The scowl that Zavier shot towards Blake was deadly. I looked over at Blake who was actually laying back in his seat with his eyes closed like he ruled this classroom
"Can we hurry this up?" Blake actually said. His relaxed demeanor had me questioning why he was even here.
"You know what your daddy said about your attitude. Want to be put in the corner again?" Chasity asked which had me accidentally laughing out loud.
I wasn't the only God that laughed but Blake still looked at me so fast that it took everything in me to straighten my features. His deadly glare was now focused on me. The moment he gritted his teeth everything changed within me.
"I'm. I'm sorry." I whispered all happiness gone. Nobody here seemed to be friendly besides the older Goddesses. I don't know why but I could feel the tears building up slowly. Maybe it was fear because I had never been looked at like someone wanted to murder me. My father was sweet.
I was a punk. I looked down at my book and reminded myself it's okay. Only 4 years and I would go back home and marry a low ranked God. I would never have to feel inferior after this.
Tears started to fall slowly and I could only bury my head into the book so nobody knew I was crying. The first time I ever laughed at someone else and it was a total failure.
Someone that sounded alot like Zavier cursed outloud. I didn't even bother to look up because being alone for my whole life didn't prepare me for this. My father definitely didn't count as company because I would've never shoved my head in a book and cried.
A sob accidentally left my lips and I froze mortified because this was embarrassing. A few chuckles went around the room and my heart dropped. I didn't belong here.
