"When are they coming? Violet, Philippa, and my father?"
"Three days," he said under his breath. "They will be here for the opening ceremony of the Lunar Starfall Festival, and to open the Eclipseball Tournament. It's always done by Mia and with the Ministry present. At least a King or Queen needs to be present. For the Dragon Court, it's always King Preston Bloom who does it at the beginning of the year, since Meredith does not consider the tournament as important as she does the cup."
"Then why are Philippa and my father coming?" I groaned.
{"It's more complicated than that, beautiful."} "Meredith insists in maintaining the appearances of perfect family, perfect bloodline, perfect Court. Agost and Nicolette always participate on the matches, so, they come to watch. Russell always come because he's pretty much forced to, it's so obvious that it's all over his annoyed face. Philippa fakes it, and pretends to care for her kids, which everyone can tell is fake as bloody hell."
Ugh. I hate this. I hate this so much. "I won't touch a string of her hair, because I don't want the attention yet, but I am not going to control my tongue, Oliver. I know I wont. And I don't want to either."
"I expected as much." {"And I can't wait for it either!"}
"How is the opening ceremony?" I clenched my jaw.
"Mia open the doors of Belladonna for visitors, parents, guardians, and for the other kids from other Academies around the world to see how stronger than them we are. Display of power. Belladonna Underground City is open for magical merchants and for the students to enjoy, all in the magical limits of the Academy. Classes are suspense, we are free not to use uniform and to just enjoy. The Castle itself, aside from the dorm wings, turns into space for things to be offered, like a merchant service, but only the ones of highest price and quality stay in and around the Castle."
"She reopens the sub-Castle Hotel, that is located at the edges of where the Blazing Woods meet the ocean, free for the students families and for the Ministry, and open for visitors who want to stay longer to pay. She uses a whole ton of magic, more each year, a vivid display of the strongest dark witch in the world," he giggled. {"Who's not a witch at all!"} "And the arena we are training in also grows in thrice it's size, to fit everyone who always comes to watch. That's where it all happens on the first three days of the seven days that the Lunar Starfall Festival lasts."
My eyes widened, "An underground City and a 2nd Castle hotel?"
{"Oh, yeah, babe."} "Belladonna Academy Boarding School, isn't the best of the world just because it has the best location, installations, kids, direct influence of the Ministry, because it's where the strongest kids of the main races are, or the best grades and professors. It also comes with how Grand our festivals are, so much, that the Academy wins tons of money during the Festivals. And that's because you don't know how greater it all becomes on Northern Lights Festival, beautiful."
"And we," I pointed from me to him, "will be the main attraction?"
{"Bloody damn straight, we will."} "Though you will have more the spotlight than me this time. Everyone wants to get a glimpse on the first Winged Serpent in millennials, after all. By now, news about you spreaded all over the globe."
Ugh. That's exactly what Cosmos told me would happen if I allow people know what I was. "The exotic animal in exhibition then."
Oliver giggled, "You are quite the sight, you know?! Speaking of it, there's also a ball in the night of the final match. The final match happens at 7 pm, and it's in a time-frozen arena. Everyone is in there, but time is frozen. When the match ends and we have a winner, time goes back to normal, and the players go through a healing section. By 11 pm, on the same night, the Winners Ball happen, celebration for those who win, and also the moment where Mia and the present members of the Ministry congratulate the winners and give them the prizes of 1st place!"
What? A ball? "We'll go together no matter the result, right?"
{"That's a stupid question, babe."} "Of course, we will." {"You need to be there when I get my winner prize again."}
Excuse me? It's you who will be the plus one of the winner here, honey. Because that prize in mine. "Dream on!"
"You wish," he grinned, his eyes turning ruby red again. "Can you let me pick your clothes again? Match them? I have something in my mind." {"That will piss everyone off. Both Dragon and Vampire Courts."}
Oliver, careful with what you're planning. "Of course, you can."
{"Careful is my middle name. You're the reckless brain cell in our relationship, beautiful."} "You won't regret. Mind showing skin?"
"No," I kissed him. "Naked back again?"
He grinned on my lips, {"Looks hot on you."} "Yeah. But you know what looks ever hotter in you, babe?" The look in his ruby eyes burned me.
"What?" I whispered, eyes on his, feeling his desire resonating with my own, and it all got suddenly burning hot again.
Brushing his lips on mine sensually, his hands held my hips up, and he pressed his stone erection on my swollen wet pussy. As he began to slide inside me, in the torturously slow and delicious way he knows drives me insane, his warm lips descended to my neck, "Me," he whispered as my arse touched his heavy balls, his cock successfully impaling me, he gave me his bite.

After my early private training with Felix, Oliver came to get me to take a bath and change clothes in my dorm. When we were there, he used some magic to block the sound of the bathroom, as he locked himself inside it with me, I stopped time, and we had sex both in the bathtub, under the shower, with him pressing me on the wall under the water, then bending me over the edge of the bathtub, and one more time after I dried us up.
"How long does this mating frenzy lasts?" I asked sitting up on the marble top near the sink with my back to the mirror and him standing in between my legs. His eyes still red with desire, and if I was a vampire, I think mine would be too. I love his eyes. Both turquoise and ruby.
"I also love yours," he whispered, coming closer and I hugged his neck with my arms. "And I have no idea, but I have a feeling it'll take quite the long time. Not complaining at all, though. I'm addicted to having sex with you, and I'm lucky that you have time magic. Makes it so much easier for us to do it whenever we want." {"Like now. I want to do it again."}
Lustful glutton vampire. "We just did it five times, Oli," I gasped.
"Seven is our lucky number, is it not?" {"You're too hot. Not my fault if I can't keep my hands to myself,"} he brought me even closer, and I felt his erection again.
"You could, but why would you want you?" I whispered, my body needy again. Then I pushed him away a bit and jumped from the marble top. You will make me go insane. I turned on my back and arched my arse.
{"Ugh, I love you so much!"} Quickly, he undid both our towels, and brought his hands to my hip, arching it higher for him, making me get on the tip on my toes again. "Hold on tight, Hel, I'm not feeling kind." {"I would never be able to fuck you kindly even if I wanted to."} Then he went balls deep inside of me, and I cried out his name in a huffed moan.
✵ 𖣔 ✵
After he pressed me against the door and we did it for the seventh time, I felt all of the nerves in my body relaxing. We ended up taking one last bath, and this time we controlled ourselves. I mean, I did get on my knees and took him on my mouth, but it was to get even, since he ate my pussy before I left to train Felix. Only then, he got ready again and I finally put some clothes on.
This time I used my own tight black long-sleeved shirt, with a turtle neck and my hair loose to hide the bite on my neck, but I put on a black leather pair of high-waist shorts, an under-breast corset made of sapphire and selenite, and a pair of high-ankles black boots with a 10-centimenters large platform with midnight blue silk laces. My matte crimson red lipstick, all of my jewels on, and a tiara made of diamond and sapphire on my hair.
"You look perfect," he whispered on my ear, hugging me by my waist, and bringing me closer to him. {"And still smells like me."}
Thank Goddess, I do. You smells amazing. "You do too," I turned around on his arms. "So, what is this? Saint Laurent?" I looked at his tight no-opening long sleeved shirt with a turtle neck that hugs all of his muscles, and the black pants that also mark his toned muscled legs and arse. Plus the fancy black sport shoes that definitely give him an extra 5 centimeters, as if that wasn't unfair enough. He's definitely beyond 2.10m right now.
{"If you look at me like that I will lose it again."} "This is Gucci."
I giggled, "Of course, it is," I hugged his waist. "And you keep talking about my waist, when yours is tiny too. Make you even hotter."
"Gives me a better build," he winked. "Makes me more attractive."
"Bloody damn straight, it does," I licked my lips, putting space between us. "I'm glad you're still using my earring."
He played with it, with his left hand that has the ruby serpent ring. "Of course, I am."
"Looks good on you."
The bastard flashed a smug, "Everything looks good on me, Hel."
I rolled my eyes, spraying a bit of the perfume he gave me. "Your condescendence baffles me, honey," I mocked and sprayed some of it on him. "Ready to face your cosmic father-in-law?"
Oliver giggled, "I was born ready."
"Remember to not let him know about the mating bond!" I glared at him. "You almost let it escape that night when he called. Did you tell the others to keep their mouths shit?"
"Yes, my Queen," he winked.
"Ugh, don't call me that!" Sending my iPad, pen, and bottle with water into my ring, I pushed him out of the closet, since I had stopped time when we left the bathroom, the girls were all sending us filthy looks.
Yumi opened a wide grin, "I see you're covering your necks."
"Afraid her dad will kill you, Oliver?" Samantha giggled.
["I can't wait to meet Cosmos!"]
"He definitely can't wait to meet you either," I told him. "Or to try stealing you for himself, that jealous dumbarse."
