Of Vampire

13

While I sharpen Gravils sword he lurks around the outside training field to see how everyone's training is going. His silver eyes carefully inspect every member of the warriors. The longer I spend time with Gavril the more I come to respect him. He is an ancient one, he knew Emperor Kronos father but only for a short amount of time. He is insanely calm and collected and I always feel like he knows more about me than what he should.

  I know that I'm not the only one intimidated by the large man. I've seen several people get a case of instant butter fingers just by thinking he's watching them. I tend to find myself chuckling when that happens.

  I look back down to the sword as Gavril walks towards me. A sharp slap to back of my head has me laughing and looking back up. "Laugh quieter youngling," he playfully commands.

"I like seeing them tremble around you," I admit. A sly grin slips across his face as he leans down.

"As do I."

  We both laugh this time. I hand him his sword for him to inspect before I stand up. While I brush the grass off me I catch sight of a tall, toned woman strutting across the field. She has mid back length red hair with eyebrow length bangs that only causes her silvering blue eyes to pop. As she gets closer I can notice how her golden skin is completely flawless and so are her lips.

"Who is the Mary Jane walking towards us?" I ask Gavril. That's the only thing that can pop into my head at this moment really. She looks a lot like a comic book MJ from Spider-Man but with a more athletic build.

Gavril lets out a small groan not being able to answer as she reaches us. Her cold eyes scan over me with clear disgust. "Is this youngling bothering you Gavril?" She asks in a sultry tone.

"She is my student Lady Janet," he curtly replies. This woman is Janet? "Vanya this is Lady Janet," he adds giving me a side look.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Lady Janet, I've heard so much about you."

Janet licks her teeth before glancing off to the groups of warriors training. "Have you seen Tyler?"

"I've been here look at the Warriors and Vanya has been sharping my blade so we haven't had time to look."

Janet rolls her eyes while putting a hand on her hip. "Well if you and the youngling, see him let him know I'm looking," she sneers giving me one last spiteful look before strutting away.

"I can see why he would want to fuck her but for the sake of everyone's sanity she shouldn't ever rule over anything," I grumble making him chuckle again.

"You shouldn't say such things about the Lady."

"Arent I technically a lady?" I retort back causing him to grin while shaking his head. I think that's how it works. I believe Uther is a Lord and I am technically his daughter so that would make me a Lady right?

"To Janet, as a turned, you hold no more status than the dirt beneath our feet."

"You are nothing Vanya! You're the dirt beneath our feet. No one would ever want you, I'm the best you're ever going to get!" He chunks the vase on the coffee table at the wall beside my head before slamming his hand there. "Don't ever think that you aren't mine."

"Vanya?" Gavril asks as I snap my attention towards him. "Relax," he says softer. I'm not sure why he says that until the sting in my lip starts. My fangs are digging into my lips. I take a few deep breaths before being able to remove them from my lip. My lip curls back the same time a hiss rushes through my teeth.

"I'm more than that," I spit out at him.

"I know that, run two laps then go get cleaned up. We are having a meeting later, Emperors orders," he says gently pushing me away. I take off running. I need to get a better grip on those flashbacks, one day it'll happen at the wrong time.
