"Nobody told me that." I whispered. I felt defeated. I was so excited to come here but I forgot about my dad. Hes been so supportive and always there for me. "Let's go." Blake demanded as he grabbed me. I couldn't protest because we were teleporting out of the main office instantly. "Oh. I see we have a new student. If I'm not mistaken this Is Ariella. I want everyone to make her feel welcomed." A scratchy voice said alittle to excitedly. Her enthusiasm did nothing for my anxiety. The older Goddess with big brown eyes and chestnut colored hair had a huge smile on her face. It was like she was a huge bottle of sunshine. Her happiness did nothing for me. "Go ahead, you can sit down in the empty seat." Her scratchy voice hurt my ears more than it helped ease me into my transition. I slowly walked forward and looked around at all the unfamiliar faces. Most of them were smiling and smirking. Whispers could be heard but not understood. It was like walking into a rainbow. So many different hair colors filled the tables. Every single color went with the God or Goddesses face. None of these Gods or Goddesses were first tier Gods. I know that only original Gods had normal colored hair and less powerful Gods that were a branch off of other Gods had colorful hair. Everyone in this room besides the teacher and Blake were 4th tier Gods or higher. There was a God with bright yellow hair and I couldn't help but stare. You would think that it would make him look feminine but it did the opposite. His sharp cheek bones and relaxed demeanor made him look dark. Like he had better things to do than wake up this early. His bright red eyes startled me as he lazily opened them. I definitely didn't see that. My face must have shown that because the smirk he gave me had me blushing and looking away. "You can sit here." Blake stated as he guided me to the middle of the classroom. I didn't fight because I definitely didn't want to cause a scene, so I allowed him to guide me to the only table that was empty. I couldn't help but stare at the new faces as we walked to our seat. I may have been still intrigued by everything but it was like the newness of me was washed up instantly and everyone that was intrigued had found something better to hold their attention. A throat clearing had me looking at the chair that Blake had pulled out. Before I could give a thank you he was sitting down in the chair closest to the windows. "Are you staying with me the whole day." I whispered as I slowly sat down. I had no books of any kind and I wasn't even ready for the day. This was not going as I dreamed. "Well I am your escort but no we will go separate ways during the break. Once break is over I'll show you to your next class." He sounded bored or rather like he didn't have time to deal with me. "Am I going to make you late for any of your classes, I can find them myself." I softly said. I couldn't help but eye him to see his reaction. He lazily looked at me as he smirked. "So you can teleport?" His wry comment had me frowning. Was he mocking me? The small smirk he had dropped instantly before a frown took it's place. "Some of the locations are not accessible by walking. Anyways we have all the same classes." His lazy tone had me questioning if I was good at making friends or if he was just bipolar. I took one more look at his side profile before I was looking upfront to the Goddess who had just put alot of things I didn't understand on the board behind her. Lots of scribbles and lines it looked like. "So as most of you may know, king Alexander has taken a liking to mimicking mortal colleges. He no longer allows the use of your powers to help you learn unless you are a high ranked royal on the council." The Goddess said as she stood up and started to pass out books by hand. This was new. Why didn't my father tell me about this? "I know alot of you will be tempted to break the law but like I just said it's now the law and anyone who tries to use their powers to take the information in. Whether it be to help you remember better or to push the information into your minds, don't. It is a level one violation." The Goddess sternly stated. Groans came from all directions. Well all besides Blake. I peeked over at him and noticed how he didn't care at all. "That's not fair." A Goddess with pink hair cried as she looked over at me with narrowed eyes. I looked away fast. Why was she looking at me? Did they think it was my fault? Was I the reason this happened? "Stop crying. The law isn't new." Blake snapped at her. So it isn't new. But why was she still staring at me like she wanted to strangle me? "It is new. Unless you think 5 years isn't new. Anyways it's easy for you to shrug off since you are on the royal counsel. You know daddy won't let you fail." The girl mocked with alot of attitude. I could only stiffen when Blake's chair moved back. He stood up at his full height. His eyes were no longer green but a black that had me grabbing the book that was put on our table so I could shove my face in it. I definitely never seen a confrontation before. "Blake sit down please." The teacher pleaded. Her voice was scratchier the louder it got. Blake completely ignored her and slowly started to walk towards the Goddess who was now shrinking in her chair. Even with looking into my book I could see him out the corner of my eyes walking slowly towards the Goddess. "Blake." A God roared. I looked up to the front of the class where a God with black hair was standing. He looked to be older than the Goddess that was teaching us. He had popped up from no where. "Really Zavier. Did my father send you?" Blake bit out. He definitely didn't seem happy to see this God. Maybe he had anger issues. Zavier seemed to regard him for a second. "Seat now. Unless you want Mia to take your spot on the council and you can take hers." The God named Zavier nonchalantly said. The way he had his hand in his slacks had me wondering what his rank was. He had power radiating off of him that had everyone in the room looking down. Besides Blake. He was the only one not scared. Blake seemed to take the threat to heart. He scowled at Zavier before he was sitting back down next to me. The fact that my father didn't teach me any of the council members names or positions was frustrating. How would I know who was who? Or what kind of God or Goddess they were.Ariellas pov The God that was standing in front just stared at our table. I knew that he was watching Blake but I still couldn't get rid of the feeling that he was staring at me. Observing me. Did he know I was powerless? Was I some kind of weird creature to everyone here? Zavier looked at our table one more time before he was looking at everyone. He held his head up high, like he was looking down at everyone. Nobody had the relaxed demeanor that they had when we walked in earlier. Everyone was on edge. It felt like there was alot of tension in the room. "As most of you may know I'm the God of the Future and I can see things before they happen. So let that be a reminder that I will know before you decided to magically learn something and the punishment will be severe. The high kings laws are not to be looked at lightly. Just like skipping classes or leaving all together." Zavier stated right as he looked at me with a raised eyebrow. Did he know I wanted to lea
Ariellas pov It felt like my word was crashing as Goddesses were chuckling. I could only keep my head buried deep in my book. If I could I would submerge into it "Ariella. Ariella." Blake snapped at me as he shook me. Why was he yelling like something was wrong? I didn't want to but I peaked at him with one eye. He was looking at me with a raised eyebrow and I was more confused than ever. "Did you plan on sleeping throughout the whole day?" He asked with a smirk. Sleep? "I mean I'm all for sleeping but I definitely don't think you want to get punished on your first day." The laugh he gave me had me slowly sitting up. I looked down at the dry book confused. I couldn't stop my hand from rubbing at my very dry face and eyes. I was sleep but I didn't feel like I was sleep. I looked over at Blake who was now standing.. A sweep of my eyes over the room had me sighing with relief. It was a dream. Everyone was gone. How I sleep without realizing it was beyond m
Ariellas pov Aries looked at me for a second before he was looking at everyone else. His teeth grinded together the more he took everyone in. "I know you think you are being funny and that I don't know but I've been teaching for the last two years and I know what you are laughing at. And let me warn all of you if you laugh at my handwriting or even speak of it you will be crying by the end of the day." Aries snapped at everyone. I paled alittle as I watched him closely. He slowly walked to his black desk and sat down. His eyes scanned the room continuously and I swear that every time they got to me they paused for a second. Maybe it was my paranoia but it felt like he had a vendetta against me. His relaxed personality couldn't hide the beast that he truly was. I really wanted to ask the God next to me what he thought but it was like I was being intimidated to keep forward even without him saying a word. I felt trapped in my seat during the whole class period even when Aries loo
Ariellas pov "This beautiful Goddess right here is Ariella The new Goddess and I am the dick that never introduced myself. Ace is the name but the ladies love to call me Aye." Ace joked as his eyes twinkled up at me. "Nobody calls you Aye loser." The Goddess next to him who had dark blue hair laughed as she playfully hit him. The way he looked at her with hooded eyes told me that he was definitely a player. It was fine. I was definitely not looking for anyone to date. "I'm sorry I'm so rude. My name's Rosie." The dark blue haired Goddess with the yellow eyes smiled. Rosie and Ace. That was easy. "Ariella but he already told you that." I softly spoke. The way she made her brows jump had me confused and the smile that came with it was even more confusing. "Well I'm Derek and this here is jazzie." The God with regular brown hair said as he messed up the blond Goddesses hair. So many names to remember. "Well as long as you don't try to talk to my boyfriend we can be friends an
Ariellas pov Relaxation hit me fast. I felt free. At some point Ace had lifted me up and had me sitting on his lap. Whatever they gave me was working wonders. "You are so beautiful." Ace whispered next to my ear. The feeling of being against his body was nice. Comforting. The tickle of his voice hitting my ear had me shivering. My sensations were all over the place. It felt like I was getting cold even with the sun heating up the garden. The warm breeze should have helped heat me up but it did the complete opposite. Every time it hit me I moved closer to Ace who didn't seem to mind. Everything around us was going so slow, so serene. I see why they inhaled that straw. A rough hand rested on my upper thigh pulling my attention to my leg. Ace was making small circles on my leg. Part of me knew I should probably move but I was too lazy and comfortable. I felt his hand go up higher but I was too relaxed to even talk. My mouth felt heavy and my body did to. "So soft." Ace whispered
Ariellas pov "But they, they inhaled the straw too." I rushed to defend myself. I couldn't get in trouble if everyone else did it to right? Alax chucked before shaking his head. "A straw you say?" He asked like what I said was the funniest thing he ever heard. "This. This is not a joke. I didn't know what it was and I won't do it again." I stuttered. The realization that I might make my dad suffer was taking away the fun of having friends and being here all together. "It doesn't matter, you did it and if you were to go to your next class like this consequences would've been severe. Drugs are forbidden on campus." I felt light headed as I realized what I had done. Drugs? I had heard of drugs but all I knew was mortals took them to get high and sometimes they made them do crazy things. Every kind had a different effect and some could be deadly. The high king actually made them illegal recently to any low rank God. "Am I going to get arrested?" I asked as I came to realize my mis
Ariellas pov My head felt like someone had punched me a million times. Nomatter how hard I tried to reel in the pain it just kept coming. A throbbing pain that was like clock work. No amount of tossing and turning did the job. "Help." I groaned. Hopefully my father would hear me. He was usually very alert and nomatter the time he would come running. Silence was all that filled my room besides an annoying clock that kept ticking. Who put a clock in my room? "Daddy." I called out, causing the throbbing to take ahold of my temple. I lifted my hand to try to massage my head but my arms felt like jelly. I couldn't even panic right because every time I sobbed or freaked out a pulsing pain shot through the side of my head. Where was he at? I couldn't call for him anymore because just the thought of the pain that talking caused had me panicking. He would be up to check on me soon. I hoped. For now I would try to fall back to sleep. Tick, tick tick was all I heard and it was driving m
Ariellas pov "Are you seriously going to ignore me all day?" Blake asked right as Aries class ended. I would say I was flattered to receive so much attention but I didn't plan on lying. Soon Blake would get over it and life would be easier. Having him around when I vowed to never talk again was stressful. Especially since this morning was boring and the first two classes were beyond pointless. I can't even use my powers so why they had me in a class that is to help strengthen ones powers is beyond me. Power awakening my foot. How dare they put me in bed with clothes on and than put me in a class that is a waste of my time. If the powers my mother died with could somehow awaken I think I would know by now. Everyone that looked at me was probably wondering the same thing I was the whole time, what's the point? Let's not get me started on the second class I had to take. Spell perfection. I don't have powers. "Let's go." Blake interrupted my train of thoughts which was getting old
