I look at the royals in shock. It's luckily not all of them and is just around five. I lower my head slightly as I feel like a complete idiot. "I'm sorry. I didn't know you were a royal. I disrespected you by refusing your offer." The panic was a bit obvious in my tone. I feel a soft had touch my cheek and my head is lifted so that I am looking directly at Amelia now.
If I am not mistaken she is the vampire mate of the werewolf princess, really they're lycans, a stronger and much more respected version of a werewolf. My wolf is freaking out and she's not dropping any hints as to why. It's making me extremely worried and at this point my heart is beating way too fast. "It's okay. You're probably just really skeptical because of the fact that you're hurt." Amelia smiles as she wipes the blood from my nose with a paper towel.
I just stay as still as possible because I'm horrified right now. I totally am going to get killed by my mom if she finds out I even talked face to face with a royal. "If you don't mind me asking, how did you get like this anyways?" The vampire asks as she narrows her eyes slightly. I don't know what to say now, it was Axel but if I tell her that I don't know what she's going to do with that information. And if Axel gets into trouble because I did, I'm one hundred percent not going to survive a minute of the punishment that'd grant me.
But I can't just lie to a royal. One they know when someone is lying and two I'm a horrible liar. It's actually sad how bad at lying I am. "I...I fell." I mumble as I scrunch up my face and look extremely awkward. Amelia raises her eyebrows and I just know she knows I just lied. Please someone just end me, if I could disappear now would be the best time ever.
"You sure? This isn't what happens when someone falls. It's actually more like someone hit you actually." I avoid eye contact and fidget, I am now realizing that this is probably something I'm going to have to tell the truth about. I sigh in defeat and just admit what happened, not including the details of why. "It was the alpha's son Axel." I say extremely quietly.
"Mhm, and why'd you lie the first time?" I almost groan at that question. "It's not that big of a deal, he wasn't trying to hurt me or anything. So I figured I'd just say I fell since I don't know if he'll get in trouble because I said he did it." I lie again like an idiot. The vampire just frowns slightly but doesn't question any further. Now I'm starting to wonder why she's even bothering to help me and why they aren't in the cafeteria.
The others who are here were just watching with intense gazes and I was still really uncomfortable. "Why are you guys not in the cafeteria? If I can ask that of course." Amelia smirks and wipes some more blood from some cuts on my lips. "Mm, we were on the way there when we smelled blood and saw a trail of it. Naturally we wanted to check up on whoever it was which is you." I mentally face palm as that makes since and honestly I'm dumb for not realizing that.
"You mean you wanted to check it out. We need to go actually I'm sure this girl can figure herself out." One of the other royals finally talks. I'm unsure of who it is considering the fact that I never really learned who was who other than the few names I have heard and the few who were described to a degree. Amelia seems to consider what she just said and decides she's right.
"She is right though. We do need to go to the cafeteria now. You're coming with us, no questions or complaints." My jaw drops as the vampire takes my hand and drags me along. This is so bad. Everyone is going to see me walk in with a literal royal. This can't be real. Maybe I did faint and I'll wake up any second. At this point I'm hoping that is the case.
But as we get closer to the cafeteria I realize this is as real as it gets. I'm about to be seen holding hands with a royal in front of the entire school and my life is over now. I feel like I'm about to start crying because of how bad this is going to make my life. The cafeteria door opens and Amelia just casually walks me into the cafeteria with her and the other royals she was with as everyone stares as if they're looking at the sun exploding.
I can hear people start whispering and questioning what they are seeing and if it's real. I just lower my head as I feel myself get overwhelmed by all of the eyes that are watching me with nothing but bad emotions. Amelia suddenly stops and turns to me, I look at her not realizing how much my emotions are showing in my eyes.
"You okay? Sorry I know this is crazy in all but I'm keeping you in my sight for the time being. So please sit right there." She points to a seat that is really close to all the royals. I obey and sit in the chair as Amelia walks over to her mate I'm assuming and starts talking to her. My nose is still unable to smell anything but blood so I can't even make out any smells and that's not really a good thing since omegas use they're sense of smell to find out if their mate is in the area.
Now while I don't believe I'm mated to a royal it would be helpful if I could make sure that is the case. Plus I need to be able to smell any possible threats too. Which I mean it's not that important for right now but it'd be nice if my nose would stop hurting at least. I get out of my thoughts and look at the royals as I try and figure out what exactly is happening.
My eyes lock with the princess and for some reason her eyes glow as if her wolf was either in control for a moment or talking to her. I for some reason can't stop staring into her eyes but someone kicking my chair knocks me out of my trance and I hesitantly look back to see who did it. It was of course one of the alpha's kids and this time it was Axel's slightly younger brother Jonah.
"You stupid omega. How'd you manage to get the attention of the royals?" He whispers to me. I shake my head signaling how I don't know my self. "Just wait until they leave. I'm going to teach you a lesson, and then when I tell my father, oh just you wait." I tense as I hear that. "Please don't. I really don't know how, I didn't do anything I swear." I plead with him as I know what'll happen if the alpha gets involved.
I remember that one time when Axel was hurting me I had fought back in fear of my life and I'd scratched up his face the alpha flipped and whipped me because of it. That was the one and only time I'd be whipped in my life and the scarring is bad. Sometimes I even have nightmares of it. Luckily everybody else just punches or slaps me. But if Jonah tells the alpha I'm sure he'll whip me.
Jonah just grins at my horrified expression and I turn back around trembling. Oh this is bad. I'm going to have to run away, I can't stay here. Maybe if I can somehow manage to run away during this stupid event I'll be safe. That's it. I can just pretend I'm going to the bathroom and run. I have never shifted for some reason but I'm sure that if I get an early start I'll be able to escape.
"Attention everyone! We will now begin the event, the royals will be walking around and answering questions when they can. The queen herself will first give a quick speech." The principal speaks through a microphone and everyone immediately starts talking excitedly as some of the royals start to walk around. Since I'm halfway not paying attention as I'm trying to think of a way to escape, I don't notice that the princess and Amelia are walking over the me.
Only when Amelia taps my shoulder do I notice that they are both standing in front of me. "I've just realized I don't know your name. Care to tell me?" Amelia asks and I look at her dumbfounded for a moment before finally answering her. "It's Hazel. My name's Hazel." I say quietly as I feel a little dreadful. "I'm sure you probably know who she is but this is Raven the princess and one of my mates. Or I guess really I'm the mate and she's the more important one." Amelia casually jokes.
My brain is moving slow at this point so I'm not even reacting correctly anymore. Raven looks at me with her sharp eyes and seems to be thinking deeply about something. I just shift in my seat uncomfortably. "So how are you feeling now? Have you maybe noticed anything different about the smells and stuff?" Raven's voice is slightly cold and much deeper than Amelia's slightly perky one.
A chill runs down my back as I try and smell more than just blood. "I can't. My nose is..." I sigh as I touch my nose and wish it'd just work. "Unfortunate. So how did that even happen. It looks like someone hit you in the face." Raven seems to want to ask questions about me rather than be asked them by other more important students. "It's nothing to worry about." My voice came out unexpectedly sharp. Maybe it's because I'm probably actually about to faint now that I'm talking in a colder and slightly meaner tone.
I can feel my conscience slipping and even though I'm aware, I'm not at the same time. I don't realize it until I do start to close my eyes. The last thing I remember is a question that I couldn't quite hear and hitting the ground. I'd fainted.
