Something which I don’t do anymore.

-Quotes ‘nd Notes-

*******************

Blue lived in a place that you could call a manor, which meant, whoever was the master of this place, they wouldn’t be short of money.

However, they decided for Blue to take public transportation instead of giving her a car and chauffeur like the other kids had when they went to school.

At first, it didn’t bother Blue at all, she didn’t see the difference, since she loved to walk on her own. She was good with directions and could protect herself, at least from humans.

Yet, things didn’t go as smooth and simple as she thought, as the other kids would pick on her for being ‘poor’.

.....

This was Gael’s fault for registering her into a prestigious school, but didn’t back her up with the necessary things that she needed to socialize with those rich kids.

Though they knew she had a last name for McKeltar, they assumed she was an illegitimate daughter of Knox McKeltar, since the man had not yet married.

“What is an illegitimate daughter?” Blue asked Chaos one evening. She smelled his scent when she was working on her homework and immediately rushed toward him when he was in his study room.

It had been two weeks since she saw him the last time after they returned from their small adventure together.

“Born out of wedlock,” Chaos answered her shortly, without lifting his head from the book that he was reading. He was standing near the window and let the cold, night wind enter the room, playing with Blue’s white hair, as she sat down on the couch, with her hazel eyes fixed on Chaos.

“Is that a bad term?”

“Hm.”

“I should punch the person who said it to me again tomorrow.” She was sullen for a little while before she told Chaos about her day in the school, though he didn’t ask about it. Blue seemed to not want Chaos to miss anything about her progress and all the friends she made.

The little girl kept talking, despite the fact that Chaos paid zero attention to her.

“Blue,” Chaos said in a small voice, but it was enough to stop the girl from chattering away.

“Yes?”

“I am reading.”

“Oh... okay...” she said softly and then kept her mouth shut, but she didn’t go anywhere.

Blue played with the hem of her blue dress and scrambled on the notepad on the table with the pen that she used to write down her homework.

She thought that she should bring her homework here, so she could finish it, but if she left, there was a high chance Chaos would no longer be here by the time she returned, thus she chose to draw a flower instead.

Yet, it only took her twenty minutes before she started talking again.

“If I stab you, will you feel hurt?” Blue asked curiously, she knew that Chaos was not human, but he was not a shifter either. So, what was he?

“Do you want to stab me?” Chaos asked back to her, but didn’t stop reading his book.

Blue then jumped from her couch and approached Chaos with the ballpoint pen in her hand. “No, I will not do that, but I am just curious.”

Her curiosity seemed to pique Chaos’s interest. He closed his book and put it away on the windowsill and for the first time paid his attention to her.

“Why don’t you try?” Chaos said. He was interested enough in violence. It was simply his nature.

“Will you die?” Blue tilted her head and Chaos crouched down in front of her, so their eyes were on the same level.

“I will not die in the hands of a seven years old child with a pen as her weapon.”

“I am eight.”

Chaos didn’t argue with her in that matter and gestured for the little girl to figure out her curiosity.

“You will not get angry at me, right?” Blue hesitated.

“Don’t be hesitant. Hesitation will kill you instead.”

And in the next second, Blue stabbed Chaos’s arm with the pointed ballpoint in her hand, but it only passed through his body, as if he was made of mist and because of the momentum, Blue tumbled forward.

Fortunately, Chaos caught her and steadied her again. He held her small wrist and with his other hand, he pointed the five vital points around his neck.

“Jugular vein, carotid artery, trachea, carotid, jugular.” He swept his hand carelessly on Blue’s hand, holding the ballpoint and changed it into a beautiful white anlace. “One smooth stroke.”

Blue’s brows furrowed. “Will it kill you?”

“No, but you can kill other creatures with this knowledge and weapon.”

==================

Lise only came to her college because she needed to get away as far as she could from Gael, but it seemed being surrounded by many people and having them talk at the same time to her, made her nervous.

She didn’t know what had happened to her. This was her place and she was finally surrounded by her friends again, but she couldn’t find the comfort that she thought she would get by coming here.

Lise kept fidgeting when her friends touched her casually, she was easily startled by small movements, and constantly felt like there was someone watching her.

“Lise, are you okay?” Riana asked, she frowned when she saw how strange Lise was. “You look so pale. Are you sick?”

Lise pressed her lips and made an effort to smile at them. The four of them were rounding a table in the canteen. The other two were Luca and Russo.

“Did that sickhead of a McKeltar do something to you?” Luca asked, he still remembered his encounter with that man from weeks ago.

Lise flinched, but she replied calmly. “No, he did nothing.” Liar. She chided herself.

“Ahh... I want to be loved by Mr. McKeltar too...” Riana sighed. “I think the way he obsesses over you, is very romantic.”

Lise wanted to throw up when she heard that.
