Chapter 7

" Wake up wake up! Come on! Sophia " I hear someone screech in my ears. " what " I scream, frustrated. " Get dressed we have to be in the auditorium in an hour " I open my eyes and see Tasha rush into the bathroom..ugh!

I wore my hair down and wavy like always. My uniform on, with my runners. I look at Tasha. Her hairs wavy, her uniform on, her high heels....she was defiantly prettier then me. I know I was a pretty girl but I just didn't like to show my body like Tasha. " Ready? " she asks, I nod. She opens the door and I follow her out.

We walk into the auditorium vampire werewolves turn immediately to me. I follow Tasha down to are friends and sit with her and Logan. " hi " Logan smiled, I smile back, " hey " I blush, he wraps his arm around me, and I feel myself blush. I could feel eyes on me, and glares at Logan.

the headmistress walks up, I was in the third row so she could see me. She looked at me when she saw Logan, something flashed in her eyes..she turned to the rest of he students " welcome " she speaks, her voice is hard, and commanding not like how I've usually heard her. " I would like to welcome...king Ibrahim Volkov " everyone claps and cheers.
a foot came out, followed by another, then half of his body showed, then with another two steps his full form stood on the stage heading towards the headmistress. The vampire clapped, while the werewolves whistled, and humans just clapped. Not cheering or whistling just keeping quiet. " please " his Russian accent was powerful, " please settle down " he says, everyone stops, " thank you. Kelly I've got this " he says, the headmistress steps off the podium and he takes it. He looks around the room, when it stops on me..his eyes..his..hair.." welcome! Welcome everyone " he says proudly still looking at me, " I hope you are enjoying yourselves " he continues, " I know I did.." he says, i couldn't breath..." For this place is known to introduce everyone to there soul mates, and....there future " he whispers the last part, I look at him and take a deep breath, his eyes flash gold, he sucks in a breath, " enjoy your years here. For some in this room this is your finale year. Make it your best. Make it a year you will remember...I know I did " he says, I just look at him, not able to move..not able to breath.." thank you your highness. " headmistress Collins says, " the king " she announces everyone cheers, me and him..we just stare at each other..." everyone! because of the Kings visit classes have been cancelled. Enjoy your day off!"
she says, Logan and I stand with everyone else and I finally look away and go with my friends.

I continue to search. I can't take that he looked at me like that. I feel like he was talking about my mother. I looked through the yearbooks, through the years.  " Hey " I turned I see Adrian. " aren't you suppose to be showing the king around " I ask him standing up, " Your highness " out steps the king, " This is Sophia smith " Adrian smiled, me and the king stare at each other, " wow " Adrian whispers, " Hello Sophia " the king says, I couldn't breath. " I have...I have to go " I ran out of the library. Sprinting down the hallways, and past students, I ran as fast as I could. I didn't know where all I could think was, ' why! Why?! Why would he leave.?!? ' I ran till I was outside in the fall weather, it was kinda cold. I finally stopped when I was in the middle of the court yard. I fell to the ground, and laid there. I couldn't think straight..I just couldn't!

I looked up at the stars, everyone of them shined with a different kind of light. I don't know how long I've laid here. It's actually pretty comfy. I just let my mind wonder, watching the clouds, guessing what they were. Trying to find the big and tiny dipper. And all the constellations. I just..

I finally sat up, and dusted myself off. Standing up, I continued to dust, the dirt off me. I walked into the academy. Kids stood in the hall, talking and hanging with friends. The lobby was probably packed. You could hear music of probably many parties going on. I walked down the hall, feeling stares of werewolves and vampires, I just ignored. " Sophia " I stop, I couldn't breath again. " Please...turn around " I slowly turn around, and face him. " can we talk? " he asks, " here? " I ask, " no. in my sweet. " he says, I look around and see people looking at me, humans Vampire and Ware wolves. " sure " I answer, I follow him.

Walking up stairs, and following the king of the world, who also may be your father...would you not be able to breath or really walk either? I thought so. It's hard. I didn't know my father, I was basically raised by Tasha and her mom and dad. I only had 3 years with my father, and I can't remember much, only bits and pieces. We reach a double door, and he opens it. It leads to a elevator. We walk in, and he puts his hand on a scanner. I feel us going up.  silence. A little bit awkward..but..I don't know how to start a conversation. The door flings open, and the king walks out. I follow. It was huge. A stairs case that leads to a hallway, a living room right here. Then I think the kitchen beside this. A butler appeared from the doors that most likely lead to the kitchen. " Hello your highness, and.." he stops when he sees me. " Is.." he whispers, the Kings nods. " miss Sophia..you've gotten so..so tall, so grown up.." he whispers, I look at him. " Albert would you mind going and getting some tea " the king asks him, he nods, he turns to me bows then runs to the kitchen. I look at the king, he gestures to the couches. I walk over and sit down, " How have you been " he asks, I stay silent. " I heard a month ago about your mother and the accident" he whispers, " I'm sorry " he whispers, I just sat silent. " please ...ask me anything you want " he tells me. " why'd you leave? " I whisper.
