Xander POV
I led her down the stairs . Out the room. I had to show her, her locker . The marble floor and mahogany coated walls making her eyes go big. I stopped at a gold and brown locker. Only two were this way . Mine and hers. I could hear the other students trailing back to class. Their respective classes .
"Princess Alex this is your locker starting today. Mine is next to yours. They are royal lockers. So be glad. Take your books and put them in the locker . Your pin code is ...."I paused. She looked at me. I can't tell her she has to cut herself to open the locker. So I do the next best thing.
I see no student looking our way.
I cast the cloaking spell around us. Then looked at her eyes.
"You are so irritating ."I used my seductive voice. She stepped back as I came closer .
"You are annoying ". Her back was against the locker. Her heart rate increased . She blushes . Even though her tan skin prevents me from seeing too much I can smell it . Somehow this boosts my ginormous ego. I pick her hand without breaking eye contact. I kissed her knuckles softly and slowly then extended one fang and lightly cut on her skin just enough for a drop of her blood. I was met with sweet aromatic scented blood, but not purely Human.
But  before she could notice I gave her knuckles an open mouth kisses to seal the wound.
I am just good like that. She took a shattering breath when I realised her hand.
Her cheeks held so much blood it wafted out of her mouth.

Now that I had a taste I'll be looking for a rerun. But something was odd with her blood. It didn't make me want to rip her veins in two. It made me want to kill anyone who wanted to drink from her apart from me. Of course.
I felt her go rigid and I let go of her hand and moved to her locker , spit on her locker and it opened.
I took the binder from her dazed self and shoved it in her locker and closed it shut.

"Come. Our first class is fighting and exercise ".Then removed her from trance and led her away.

I could feel people looking our way.
Why .
One-I held her hand.
Two-no one could hear what we were saying . Because they could not hear her heartbeat. So they were amazed as she was human.
Three-I reeked of her blood. I reeked of her scent. It was driving all of them crazy and making me unnecessarily protective .
I loathe it.

We reached the hall next to the pool and fields of trees where hunting training occurs. We had changed into simple gym gear. 

Mr Drakos was at the front of the group of students specifically girls who were ogling him with him lust that revels the  age difference. Well age really does not matter in our world.

I looked at Alex's who was desperately trying to hide behind me.
Her small frown due to the exposure of her skin .  She feels self conscious of wearing a sports bra and sweat pants. She shouldn't be like that. She's hot by any standards.

Curse my male hormones .

"Ah, Prince Xander, Princess Alex please come , come we are about to begin. "Mr Drakos drawled with a seductive smile in Alex's way.
I tensed when I felt Alex's heart beat rise and blush. I put a cloak around us to prevent people from hearing her heartbeat.

I scowled and beckoned her to follow. I looked at Drakos in the eye. He may be a teacher and maybe a few decades older than me ,he knew very well that I could beat him to a bloody pulp.
I gave a small nod for him to proceed.
The girls scowled in Alex's direction ,but smiled in mine.
Typical hypocritical female creatures .

"Everyone, attention please. Today we are going to do the easy drill. Our princess is still new so we have to let her settle in first .So we start with ten laps around the field then a ten minute hike up the mountain then come back then we go back to the next class".
He said. Everyone nodded.

"Begin,with human speed" . Usually everyone would have finished. But he told all of them in Latin to pretend to be human.
Again oppressed by our inferiors. Expected to do according to the suite of humans.
They started running. Me a little of a meter ahead of Alex . Annoyed as hell. I was annoyed when I heard Mr Drakos behind me talk to Alex.
"So Princess Alex how do you like the school".he was jogging lightly.
"Uhm. I really cannot complain. It looks medieval and enchanted. As if magic resides here. In these ground. The school itself is magnificent . It looks ancient and I love ancient things".
She answered.
Mr Drakos said",Very old and ancient. Yes it is."
He sighed.
I felt Alex's breath hitch then a stumble of feet. As she was about to fall . I turned and caught her waist before she even stumbled.
What the hell.
Her eyes widened. So did Drakos and some of the students.
Okay. What happened. I thought she fell.
I looked at Mr Drakos. He smirked. I never liked the dude. I let go of Alex a little rougher than intended.
"Please be careful. I do not want My mom's new fragile porcelain doll getting a scratch." I scowled and turned to continued running . I did not miss the smug look on Mr Drakos face. The other students were surprised that I was capable of kindness.
I saw my guards assigned by the council to protect me at all costs even though I do not need to be babysat. They shifted uncomfortably in their place. I know their apprehension to my parents sudden urge to have a human in school as heir. 
I will not fail them. I will  have Alex's blood and her heart .
Well her beating heart in my hand . I just did not want her to get hurt.
