//Sorry for the super long wait! But here it is! Only a few chapter left.. vote. comment. thanks. (: ALSO side note: I now think Ash would look like Wallis Day with the short blonde hair, although Ash's hair is shoulder length in the story ^.^ Title credits- New Fears by Lights.

Oriel's gaze flickered over to Alex and then Rique, eyes pleading as she tried to figure out what to say. She's in my room, she thought and imagined her parents exchanged glances and Ellie looking at her in disappointment while the General excused himself. Oriel heard shuffling in her room, but knew everyone else could too. "Uh, how about we move the party into the living room?" Alex piped up and then Rique began. "Yes, her highness is not at her best quality and would like to get dressed. I think Ash went out for uh.."

"Ash ran an errand for me." Oriel spoke next and shrugged. "I knew Alex was watching over me and just sent him away so I could sleep."

Vivian looked over at her husband who turned to leave the hallway, Ellie and the General behind. "Well, alright, dear, do hurry up. We want you on that plane to London as soon as possible." Vivian turned to leave with the others, Rique following after them. "Thank you." Oriel whispered to Alex who nodded and walked off to join the others.

Oriel slipped back into her room and closed the door, sighing as the blood flowed back into her face and she calmed down a bit. Ash was out of bed and getting dressed. "What's going on?" She whispered, her features sleepy and hair everyone. She was so cute in the morning. "The Vampire King of the UK wishes to grant us extra protection and wants to talk about it now." Oriel whispered back as she hurried to change her clothes and get dressed. "Why so quickly?" Ash began running fingers through her hair and grabbing her glasses from the beside table before walking into the bathroom. "He can be very demanding, whatever he wants, he usually gets." Oriel rolled her eyes, waiting for Ash in the bathroom before walking in herself and quickly applying her makeup. She walked out and leaned in to peck Ash's lips. "Hm, reminds me of someone." She smirked and Oriel grinned, flashing her fangs. "I'm not nearly as bad.."

"Kidding." Ash winked before opening the door to let Oriel out first and she zipped down the stairs and into the living room, sitting across from her parents. Ash walked in a few minutes later. "I'm so sorry, I was late. What is going on?" Ash asked, standing behind Oriel.

"Oh no, please sit down dear." Vivian said, gesturing toward the seat next to Oriel and Ash did as she asked. "King Mitchell Stafford of the UK wants to grant us extra protection. His advisor said he's been thinking about it ever since he heard about the attack on the school and heard Oriel's broadcast. He respects Oriel's need to protect her people and would like to offer us help. Our plane leave in just a few hours." Eleanor nodded, looking over to Oriel. "There will be a discussion between you two tomorrow afternoon in the palace conference room." Ellie finished and Oriel sighed softly, this would mean better help for them and she was grateful. She didn't know personally how good the British vampiric guards were but she heard they were excellent in combat, killing werewolves specifically. "Well, alright. I'll get packing." Oriel stood up and everyone followed. "I already booked a hotel, your highness and for your parents as well." Ellie said, leaving the living room with her parents. "And Ash, please pack a bag as well." Vivian called, walking out of the door. "We'll be in the back limo."

Oriel walked back up the stairs with Ash and began packing up a few night bags. She began carrying her bags out when Ash shook her head, taking them for her along with her own suitcase. Oriel rolled her eyes, blushing as she fought a smile. She slipped into the back limo, Ash beside her and her driver followed the limo in front other guard backing them and leading the way. They boarded their plane in no time and were soon on the way to the UK. They landed in London in the evening and Oriel was disappointed they skipped breakfast and lunch for a flight again.
