Sorry, buddy, I can't die with only one friend.
If I'm to die now, it's only two friends that will mourn me, no one else except my father.
He gave me a betrayed look.
He has every right to be jealous.
He is my friend, the only person I've always run to in times of difficulty, and he gets to share me with others, it calls for jealousy.
The commoners (students and aides) moved to the long buffet line, taking the food they want.
I turned towards Blondie, “why aren't we going there? They will finish the good ones before we go there?”
They must be joking, I can't sit here and wait for them to take the good food with them. I will go there with or without them.
They can stay hungry for all I care.
“ Our food will be served to us, relax, the good food is on the way”, he smiled, relaxing more on his seat.
I mistakenly touched Reddy and the sizzling sensation I got was almost like the one I got from Blondie, this one was more like standing on a glacier.
I removed my hands like I'd been stung.
Reddy looked ready to murder, “if you dare put your filthy hands on me again,” he glared at me, “you won't live to see another day”, he turned back towards where he was staring before.
Blondie gave me a playful shove, “why is it that you like getting the rise off grumpy guy? “ He gestured to Reddy with his head.
I shrugged, "he's everywhere I go”, I smiled," can't help running into a person like that”.
Aina gave me a worried look, “he's the prince, you know?”
Her worries are justifiable.
Reddy can do away with me any moment he wants, but deep in my guts I knew he wouldn't hurt me, call it a fool's intuition, I can't care less.
All I know is he won't hurt me.
My heart was sure of it the same way it knew how to beat.
“And am also a prince, remember?” I asked smugly.
Her cheeks turned pink in embarrassment.
“Am sorry high prince”, she gave me a pleadingly look, “all I am doing is looking out for you”.
“ It's appreciated, thank you”, I smiled at her.
Never in my life have a stranger thought of my well-being, it gives me joy just thinking of it.
She smiled.
I can see how beautiful she is.
She's a beautiful specie which will make a good helper someday, if I had swung that way, I would have prayed to the gods to pair us, but I don't swing for that.
If she were to have been a boy, I would have appreciated that.
Ikenba is more moody than Reddy to be considered handsome. Every time you see him, his face will be etched in a frown.
Our long-awaited food arrived each carried by maidservants from our different kingdoms, vampire maids served the vampires, likewise the werewolves and human maids served us.
“Told you ours was on the way”, he winked, “one of the perks of being royalty”.
