The Queen's Knight (Lesbian Story)

3 - The Staff

"OW! WHAT THE FUCK, KRISTINA!!!! It feels like you slapped me with a dictionary!"

"Well, maybe you need to be slap with a dictionary to learn more words other than fuck."

I glared at her enraged. "I should kill you right now," I said while standing up to her level. "Or maybe I should kill you, when you're at your most vulnerable," I said and smiled like a sadistic person.

"Oh, is Alice the innocent knight turning evil," she smirked.

"Innocent," I questioned. "Do you really think there is anything innocent about me," I asked my voice cracking. I looked at Kristina waiting for her to answer; to see if someone actually thinks of me as innocent. How could I be innocent? I'm not innocent at all! It was all my fault when mother died! I looked down at my hands to avoid her gaze on me. Blood, blood, blood, blood. Why is there blood on my hands!

"Alice.......are you okay?"

I returned my gaze to Kristina, and saw that she had on a worried expression. "Alice..I think you should sit down; you're looking pale. Come on let's go sit down," she walked me over to the burgundy couch. "Alice what's wrong?"

I took a deep breath and exhale. "It must just be the loss of blood," I fake smiled so she wouldn't be more worried. "Can someone get me water, please?"

"I will do it," Maddie yelled ecstatically then ran out of the library.

"Now, what is the real reason, I was asked to be here," I asked changing the excruciating mood. I turned to Blair who was sitting at a table. She had on a look of pure curiosity, while staring back at me. Does she know I'm lying? That I'm not okay at all, and it wasn't the loss of blood that made me turn pale? I hope she isn't one of those people who can analyze others easily.

Blair shook her head, "Oh yes, I asked you here, so I can show you around the castle. To make you more accustomed to living here and would know where everything is."

"Is Kristina going to help and show me around also," I asked curiously.

"No, I have to go back to learning more new spells," she stated.

"Are you a witch or a mage? I would guess mage but you can never know," I asked.

"Your guess is correct; I'm a mage of this castle," she sounded impressed that I got it right. "Now can you both get going so I can get back to my spell books?"

"Yes, we will Kristina. Come along Alice, the first place I will take you is the music room," said Blair happily, getting up from where she was sitting and walking over to the entrance of the library.

"Bye Kristina, thank you for fixing my nose," I thanked.

"No problem."

I walked over to where Blair was, and we started off towards the music room.

"So, after the library where else are you going to be taking me?"

"Well, there isn't really that much to show. Right now I'm just going to be showing you the kitchen and tell you where my room is, after the music room," Blair said. "Also the weapons room is at the end of the hallway from the kitchen."

"What about the staffs' names," I asked. "Yes, I do know some of their names from meeting them, but I don't know their last names yet."

"You will learn everybody's full names on the way, except for Levy since you already know hers."

I nodded, remembering that Levy's last name is Green. "What about your last name Blair? I know I should know what it is already, since you're the queen but I do forget things sometimes," I lied to just hear her angelic voice.
