While strolling down the hallway of the first-year building, making my way towards Gabrielle's office, I slipped my phone back into my pocket and muttered a name, "Bernadette."
Instantly, a figure materialized beside me.
"Yes, Master?" she responded, her voice obedient.
It was Bernadette, a woman with black hair tied up in an upward ponytail. She donned a ninja-like garb, with daggers holstered on each side of her hips. Bernadette was one of my Shadows.
The Shadows were a group of women who acted as my silent guardians, always at my side and ready to carry out any orders I gave them. Currently, there were five members: Sandra, Bernadette, Krista, Isabelle, and Juliette, with Sandra serving as their leader.
