Lucy's P.O.V

Reiji examined me before he spoke. "So you're his tutor?" I nodded my head. "Good luck" What was that supposed to mean? I shook my head. I shouldn't take his words into mind. I guess I can meet Shu now."

"Reiji-sama" He looked taken back by me using such an honor flic.

"What is it?"

"Where is Shu's room?"

"Shu's room is downstairs in the back."

"Thank you" I walked in the back hallway but there had been so many doors that it had been hard to tell which one had been his room. Eventually, I had found Reiji and smiled.

"You know you passed his room right?" My eyes widened.

"Oh" He arched a brow.

"Come on" I followed him down the hall until we stopped at a door.

"Thank you Reiji-sama." He nodded before he left. I knocked on the door but didn't receive an answer. So I knocked on again but to no avail.

"Shu-sama" The door opened and I walked inside. Suddenly it closed behind me making me look back. I tried to open the door but it had been locked in from the outside.

"What are you doing here?" I looked in front of me to see a man with curled blond hair as well as light blue eyes, and earbuds in his ears, resting on his bed. He seemed just like him. I felt the heat rise to my cheeks. Maybe it was him.

"Shu?"

"You didn't answer my question

"You didn't answer my question."

"I..I...I have a mission."

"What is it?"

"To tutor you." He opened his eyes and looked at me.

"So that is why you're here?"

"Yeah"

"I guess I have no choice." He stared at me before he stood up.

"Shu" I started to reach for the door again when I had been pinned against it. He moved his head in between my neck. Oh no not again. "Wait," I said trying to fight him back only to suddenly felt a sharp pain in my neck. He backed away and moved near my collarbone. "Please"

"You are the one who has tempted me. You accepted this job knowing the things I could have done to you." His clutch on my wrist tightened before he bit me again. His teeth were like tiny daggers that could do a lot of damage. I was trapped with him and no one was going to save me this time. Suddenly someone had been banging on the door.

"Oi," It was Reiji. Shu backed away from me and looked at the door with a similar look he had always given me, annoyance.

"What is it?"

"Why is she locked inside your room?"

"Gee, how am I supposed to know?"

"Lucy, come on" He didn't let me go.

"Lucy still has some work to do."

"She is only supposed to tutor you." I could feel the tension between them and knew for sure that these two didn't get along and didn't want to make their problems worse than it had been already.

"Tell him you are not leaving." He whispered in my ear.

"R..Reiji-sama I am going to start tutoring Shu-kun now. "

"You just got here. Are you really going to start working today?"

"Yeah, it is best to get to know him today and cover some of the basics."

"Okay", He left . I looked at Shu who had been staring at me with an emotionless look before he laid on his bed.

"Come here" He was going to bite me again. I just knew it. I am pretty sure the door was unlocked so I could leave now right. He realized that I wasn't going to budge, causing him to sigh.

"I want to make a deal with you."

"What is it?"

"My father wants a grandson but I can't do it. In that place called Crocus, is there a way for you to have a girl?" I blushed hard.

"Huh?"

"I need you to help me, him coming here has been aggravating not just me but everyone in my family."

"Sh...Shu"

"So I am taking that as a yes?" I felt the blood rise up to my cheeks even more.

"I...I...I am only eighteen. I mean...you are no older than me and...I am not sure if it's easy to get the potion like-"

"So there is a potion?"

"M...Maybe I..I mean"- I stammered.

"We are going to start tomorrow."

"Huh"

"You will teach me one thing and I will do the same."
