Charlie Knows.
957 Words
This week was full of preparation and training on duties and other royal subjects. Oliver's feeling better, much better actually. He laughs and mocks the way I hit him.
Alki doesn't like his childish behavior and is strict sometimes. But it's tolerable because she likes him. I also like them, Oliver and Amelie. They're my best friends, so I can't help it.
Charlie's still trying to intimidate me with her minions. I told Amelie and Oliver to back off and let those minions be their stupid self around me. I don't want them to think anything's changed.
It's Friday, last day of school. Spring break starts for everyone. Besides me, I have to claim my duties at the Castle. I'm a royal descendant, you know!
"Stop thinking, the castle, please. You're causing me a headache." Alki complained to my head and I smiled at myself.
Charlie noticed that, and she's getting closer to me in the lockers. I was packing my stuff out of the locker for the last period. I'm not in the mood for her games.
"Dirty brat, are you laughing at me?" She said abruptly, slapped and closed my locker loudly, abruptly! Alki growl loudly in my head.
"Let me rip her throat out."
She growl angry.
"We are purebred royals. He can't talk to us like that. I'm going to break it up!"
"Stop, I'll handle it." I said calming Alki before she took control.
"I'm talking to you!" Charlie yelled, slamming my shoulder. Oliver and Amelie weren't here. Oh, my God, what are you talking about?
"What do you want, Charlie?" I answered and came back to face her.
"Were you laughing at me? How dare you? Maybe it wasn't enough last time," he said and slapped me. I was just standing there looking at her as calmly as I could. I moved the lock of hair off my face, put it behind my ear and smiled at her.
At lightning speed invisible to one, non-magical, I grabbed her neck, changed her position and pushed her hard into the cupboards. She was shocked and struggling to loosen my grip.
"Don't touch me again." I managed to say before one of the footballers came and tried to pull me away. I raised my hand and pushed him away, without loosening my grip on Charlie's neck. He landed a few feet away from us in the hallway.
My eyes were silver with rage. I turned my attention again to her shocked and frightened face. Before we realize that people are starting to gather around us.
"If you dare touch me again, I will break you up. Is that clear?" I whispered irritated near her ear and she felt my fingernails around her neck. I loosened my grip and let her fall.
Apparently, she didn't expect that and landed on her feet awkwardly. I took a deep breath to calm down and quickly ran away from her. I came back myself before I lost control because of her.
She's starting to come after me and shout my name.
"This girl will never know." Alki's sarcasm in my head. I tried to ignore Charlie's voice and kept walking faster. Her minions were chasing her down the hall.
"Hope, stop. We need to talk."
She yells all the time. I stopped and turned to her. She ran into me.
"I told you, if you touch me one more time, I'll destroy you!" I said and she was looking at me, but not as usual.
"Who are you?" She asked me when she breathed calmly and recovered from the shock.
"What do you mean? You know me! You've been bullying me and laughing at me since first grade." My sarcastically ironic tone entertained her for a second.
"NO. Tell me who you really are!"
And I noticed the light red circle around her brown eyes. I let the aura of my pure wolf take over.
"You're a royal werewolf. You're the lost princess." She said with a tone of honor and unexpected pleasant.
"How is that possible? All those years you've been here, Your Highness! Please forgive me for my attitude. My father would kill me if he knew what I was doing to you. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
She leaned over her apologetic face. Which amuses me, I can tell. After all these years, she wants my forgiveness.
"Look up. Never intimidate anyone again. Because everything goes, they turn around and come once." I said in a steady voice. And her minions stood twice as long.
"You won't get another chance. Use it wisely." I finished my statement and came back to leave.
The bell rang! I left school for the first time in my life.
I connected my thoughts to Amelie and Oliver and informed them to meet me at my house.
They came and I explained to them what happened. They told me that Charlie and her minions are my mother's warriors. And she knew the truth about the two of them.
They never fought with them because of my mother. The Vampire Queen married my father, the Werewolf Alpha King. My grandmother was the first purebred witch to marry a vampire. After all these connections the result was me, the first Royal, purebred triybrid alive.
Tomorrow's the big day. I will meet my father's pack, my mother's clan and the kingdom of wizards. Oh, my God. It's a heavy head wearing the crown. Alki is very quiet tonight.
Maybe she's still mad at me because I hung up when I was fighting with Charlie. I really don't understand her sometimes. I've gathered the last necessary things I need in silence.
A lot of thoughts turn in my head, but Alki is still silent.
