He takes out a small glass bottle and slices my finger. "Ouch" I cry out of pain. He takes the droplets of blood in an unused spoon and pours out the contents of the bottle. For a second nothing happens but suddenly my blood catches itself on fire.
Everybody looked surprised. The faces of the people present here said all of it. I Am A FREAK. Now they will kick me out.
The man looked at me and said "WELCOME, THE LAST KNOW SURVIVOR OF THE LINE OF THE ROYAL FAMILY LUVITON ".
A gasp ripples through the crowd.
He bows in front of me while saying . Every other person in the room except Tink's family was bowing down. Some looked confused others had a face of pride and few of them had a face of jealousy.
The Man kneeling in front of me took my hand and looked up at me. "My lady it's good to see that the Luviton Family line still runs "
"But... I'm just an ordinary girl," I stammer.
Tink from behind says "girl you are far from an ordinary girWhenwhen I first saw you in the school you were overflowing with magic energy. I really thought you don't know how to blend in with human. "
"Really? "
Tink nods her head "that's why you were placed by the teacher with magical students instead of with humans. "
"Now I think back I can see why the teachers made the mistake of placing you in our classes "
"And I really think you should let the man get up, he has bowing for quite a while.
I gasp and tell him to get up." Thank you my lady "
"I forgot to introduce my name, I am Elias
After all the excitement got over Mr DeLuca says" So your surname was not fake. We need to contact His majesty for this case, and we need to be as discreet as possible. If people got to know about her, she will be hunted down by other people for her magic and blood "
Blood? I croaked.
"Yes my dear as u saw your blood is really from the Luviton family and some people can gain magic from blood though they are rare, but there are some. "
"It's better we tell his majesty about what happened here, and we need to keep you hidden from another family." Mrs Elaine says, sitting on the chair and reaching for the glass of water.
I saw the situation and knew that as bad it looks, I can't let them cage me from the outside world. I know that they are doing it, so I would stay protected from the enemies, but it's suffocating me. Furthermore, I look at Tink who was already watching me. She puts a reassuring hand on my shoulder.
Tink worried says "but within a week we have a trip coming up, and we really need to attend it otherwise our grades might suffer"
Mr DeLuca and Mrs Elaine turn" What kind of trip "
Tink who takes a deep breath" So u see Mia and I both attend the history classes also Mia is of history major. If I or Mia skips the trip we will be heavily suffering in our classes and we both don't want that. "
I looked at her who was clearly bullshitting about the trip. There was some truth mixed like I really am from the history major because history always fascinated me and we both really met each other in our history class.
After hearing everything Tink was saying they turned to me as if asking if it's true I nodded because this trip was the only thing I don't want to miss due to their overprotectiveness.
After a while Mr DeLuca sits down on the chair and sighs. He looks like he has the burden of the world on his shoulder. He says" Fine, I won't stop you both from attending the trip and as Bellaire said we don't know how long we need to keep you hidden, and it's not like the whole world knows about you. It would be better if Mia puts on an act as there is nothing happening. And you both can continue to attend the classes and the trip otherwise people will start to get suspicious, and we don't want that. "
"And you both need to learn the illusion magic spells to keep both of you protected". Mrs Elaine says. "Yael is an expert in illusion, so she might help us won't you "
Yael who was sitting quietly nodded, even I forgot that she was even present here. Yael folds her hand and says "I can but you fools don't restrict her from her own freedom. She is not saying anything in front of others, but she clearly looks like she would bolt out of here if given a chance. What do you think it would happen if she runs away from here. So stop trying to cage her even a magic never wants to be caged. Try to make your own guards tough rather than caging her. " With that she gets up and leaves the dining room leaving every other person gaping at her.
Mrs Elaine who stands up and says "both of you it looks like the lunch has come to an end why don't you both go and take rest. We can talk about it later on. " With that she and every other person go out of the room.
We both go to my room. On the way we say nothing, there is silence echoing in the hallway. As soon as we reach my room Tink pulls me and takes me to her room which was just next door.
She locks the door and snaps her fingers twice. Now there is a pressure which was not there when we entered.
Tink says "now we can talk ". I look at her and say "what the pressure I am feeling."
" Is it uncomfortable."
"Well No. "
"Well I soundproofed my room and also scrying free so no one can hear us from mirrors and overhear something we don't want anyone else to know."
