Blood and dark | | Lady Lesso x Reader

"... Well for today we are done, remember to practice. Otherwise you will never defeat those of the other school." I said as the young Never walked out of the classroom, pushing and fighting again with swords in hand.

Since it was lunchtime I went to the canteen and as usual I met Clarissa, lately she was becoming more and more suspicious of me. She always asked me where I was going, what I did. I don't know if it was that noise in my room that made her suspect, but she certainly didn't want to give up.

"Hi!" I greeted her. "Hi, how was the lesson this morning?" She asked unscrupulously.

"Well, as always. Why?" I was honestly used to Clarissa's questions, but I had no idea what she might need to know about my lesson.

"What did you do?" Asked Clarissa again, as we walked together to the canteen.

"I can't talk, you know the rules 'Rissa." Hearing this, Clarissa fell into silence.

In the end it's just a matter of rivalry, since I teach in both schools neither of them can know the other's program. In such a way that you can not predict their moves. Honestly it's a rather useless thing, but I didn't want to tell about what I do in the other school in Clarissa.

Arriving at the hall, Clarissa and I hurried up to our seats. Almost everyone was already there, apparently it took us quite a while to arrive. The table of professors of evil was now full, while that of good was still half empty. As I looked around, I met her gaze, smiled at her and she reciprocated, then immediately turned to check that Clarissa wasn't looking. Luckily she was engaged in a nail color conversation with Emma.

So for once I wondered what it would be like to sit there with her, among the professors of evil. Also because I am also one of them, I also want to be there with them, there with her. I know I also belong to the Good, but I have the right to sit wherever I want. But if I had sat there I would soon have too many suspicions, too many questions would have crept into the heads of Clarissa and the other professors. So I gave up my business and focused on pasta.

"You Cher?" Emma suddenly asked as I was immersed in my thoughts. I wasn't even listening to the conversation, I had stuck to my fingernails who knows where those two had arrived.

"What?" I asked.

"I've been telling you lately she's always on the clouds" Clarissa replied.

"Are you dating anyone?" asked Emma, chuckling, after that question both she and Clarissa stared at me, as if trying to perceive my every lie.

It seemed to me to go crazy. Panic. Now what do I tell him.

"Me? No,  absolutely not." I looked away from them and focused on the food.

"Oh come on, why don't you want to tell us?" Emma continued, wanting me to say something at all costs that I didn't want to say. I hate her when she does that.

"Because there's really no one." Because it is Lady Lesso I would have loved to answer.

"Then we have to fix it." Said Clarissa, that conversation was about to take a turn for the worse. Even worse than before.

"I agree, don't be afraid we'll help you." Emma replied, happy to help me, I had to get out of that conversation as quickly as possible.

"It's not necessary, really. I'm fine like that." I prayed they would stop with these questions.

"Come on, we'll take care of everything. You just have to go to the appointment."

"You're kidding! I'm not going anywhere! Now excuse me but I have to go to class!" I admit that I raised my voice as I told her this, leaving Emma and Clarissa slightly in shock. I left the room as fast as I could and locked me in the room, I had no lesson. But no one could know this. I hoped I hadn't made a scene in front of everyone, I hoped only Clarissa and Emma heard me.

I didn't leave my room until it was time to go to class, unfortunately in the castle of good, away from Lesso.

After spending the entire afternoon explaining to the princes that they should not look beautiful and perfect at every attack, I headed for the bridge. I loved going through it in the evening, it was all dark, illuminated only by the stars and the moon. I had a few things with me, I had to move from one castle to another so often that in the end I took everything with me.

Usually when I passed by I always thought of the bottle, my only reason for living mistaken for the price of someone else's life, someone else I wanted to keep safe. I had told Lesso that I had gotten rid of the bottle, she had only said that only I could decide what to do. But this made me feel more guilty, who knows what my father would have said about this.

As I entered the dim light I saw a silhouette approaching me, I did not continue I suddenly froze. In addition to footsteps, a loud noise of iron dragged on the stone could be heard. A sword.

"Hello, I think you have something I really need." Said the silhouette, I still did not see him well but he was certainly a pirate, and I knew very well what he was looking for.

"I have nothing for you pirate, I don't have what you're looking for anymore." I replied firmly, I knew that sooner or later someone would come, I did not expect right now but.

"I'm not just any pirate, I'm Captain Salazar! I came to take my due, your father owed me a debt and now he must repay it!" As he said he pulled his sword out of its sheath, I prepared mine. Luckily I had it behind me.

"I no longer have what you are looking for Salazar, I throw it away!" I shouted in response.

"Well then I'll take you to pay off the debt!" He began to attack me, I was ready. I was always ready, with every attack, I was there to defend myself.

For being a pirate he was pretty good, I defeated pirates in record time. But apparently he was different.

As we battled, I tripped over my own backpack and fell backwards. He was now standing in front of me with a sword in his hand, I had no escape.

Everything I had done in the last period began to flow in my head, I could not die like this.

While it was happening, while I was thinking about it, the pirate was hit from behind the head and fell to the side. I got even scarier and jumped to my feet. There was like a kind of fog all over the bridge I couldn't see who had hit Salazar. I made my way through the fog, until a gust of wind swept it away instantly towards me. So that I could see who hit me Salazar and saved me.

Who could have done such a thing if not her. At that moment I was puzzled for a moment, then when she looked at me with a bat in his hand and his usual smirk. I ran to hug her.

"My god you made me take a hit, I thought you were some other pirate. How did you know I'm here?" I said as I took a few steps back to retrieve my stuff. "You didn't arrive anymore so I thought I'd come looking for you."

"Are you walking around with a bat and do spells with smoke? This is new to me." I said as I put my sword back in its sheath.

"Sometimes it happens." She smiled and winked at me, how irresistible she is when she does that.

We walked towards the castle.

"At least this time it's not Clarissa's fault." I replied, referring to the fact that it was taking me a long time to cross.

"After today I would have hit her with a bat too." She said seriously, looking angry. I doubted that she had listened to this morning's conversation. So I asked her.

"For what you and Emma said this morning?"

"Yes."

"I knew you were finally listening." I laughed, wanting to lower the tense a bit. Apparently she had taken it more than me.

"If they dare to do something, I'll beat them both." She said coldly, looking at me as if she wanted to kill them. That look reminded me of when she had kidnapped me, she looked at me like that too. Everything was very different now.

"I don't think it will be necessary. Now let's come in, okay?"
