Mother took me to her library, it hadn't changed from since I was little. I touched some books as I walked behind her.
She handed me a book from a locked drawer and said "It's on self defense, weakening an opponent, even ki-" I was shocked at her words and put the book in a bag.
She gave me other books including some books for entertainment because she knew my love for reading.
I was very happy and grateful.
My mother sat me down at a table and took a book from a shelf and began reading it to me. It was very astonishing. Better than any book I had ever read .I listened intently until she stopped reading
"Why did you stop? Is it over?" I asked curiously. "It's not over,but I will only continue when you finish your first year at the school" She replied and shut the book ,locking it in the drawer.
I was left dumbfounded and begged her to continue but she refused to continue. To make matters worse , the point she stopped at was a cliffhanger!
The pain!
I took the books she gave me and left after she gave me tips on how to behave in the school. I took all the books to my room and began to pack my bags.
I didn't know how many clothes to carry but I knew that dresses would not be needed. I didn't need to be in a six kilogram dress every single day,considering that there were dangers lurking everywhere in that school.
But I was sure to pack some silk dresses for better sleep. Most outfits were made of leather because who knows,I might not end up in the second division.
Elsewhere, someone was patiently waiting for Jasmine's arrival.
"Jasmine Zayren....? Youngest daughter of King Zayren. I see, will meet again. Soon..."
*********
Jude and Jasmine arrive at the academy and head straight for the principals office. They barge in without knocking.
???:Don't you have any manners? Didn't your parents ever teach you?
Jude: They are your parents too...
Jasmine: Eldest Sister!!
Abigail: It's Principal Abigail Zayren ...point of correction .
Jasmine: sis...it's Abigail Jane Zayren..point of correction
Abigail stands from her seat and wal5ls towards Jude and Jasmine. She gives Jasmine a tight hug and glares at Jude,
Abigail asked Jude "Why didn't you stop father, Jude?"
Jude replied saying "I tried."
She sighed and told Jasmine not to worry before telling them to go to the assembly for announcements.
Jasmine joined the crowd to wait for the announcement. Everyone there was very tall,she couldn't see the front so she stood on her tippy toes. "Ugh." she groaned.
Then someone laughed behind her and said, "what are short people doing in this academy?" Jasmine turned around and said to the person, "I will have you know that I am 5'6 , not short not tall,just average"
She looked up to see a tall scary figure, he had a scar on his cheek. The power of his prescence was evident.
She gulped hard,not out of fear . It was because He looked 6'6,perfect jaw line,ocean blue eyes,a tattoo on his right arm , muscular body and his voice was breathtaking . She stared at him without realizing it. "You're staring," the man said. Jasmine immediately looked away and pinched the bridge of her nose in embarrassment.
He put his hand on her shoulder and bent down to her level before whispering into her ear, "Welcome Miss Zayren,welcome to our Elite academy." Jasmine froze at the mention of her name . "How'd you..." she was cut short by an announcement "Sir Dane ,come to the front." With that being said,the man walked to the front with everyone making room for him as he passed.
"He seems....Familiar...Dane...huh" Jasmine though.
