"You might be the first child I have ever seen who is excited to go to school in a world where we are considered nothing." Tessa said and then blew on her hot tea. "Even though I consider your father to be the nerd, you have succeeded him."

Adeline giggled and corrected her collar. They did have uniforms and it was made mandatory by the king to ensure that no one felt to be out of the social hierarchy. The uniforms made it sure that everyone felt equal and no one would close better than the other. However the supernatural kind did not have to wear the winter clothes where Adeline had to. She was wearing a jacket and a half -sleeved sweater.

​​

"I do not care. Studying makes me feel nice." She told her aunt who snorted.

She stirred her cup of tea as she made another for herself and was still dressed in a night suit. Her aunt had gotten up early because it was Adeline's first day.

"Studying usually gives people a headache but then again," Tessa muttered under breath and shook her head. "Nevermind that, are you sure you've gotten everything. The double cross check with the book?"

Adeline nodded. She had packed her bag last night and double checked it this morning. One thing she did not understand what the subjects which is why she moved back to her study table which Mr. Korr har installed it in her room and picked up the booklet.

Turning to the page where his subjects were, Adeline questioned her aunt, "Aunty Tess, who was the one to choose my subjects?"

Tessa shrugged, "why?"

"The subjects written here are almost compulsory and are politics, history, law and economics. The only choice I have is between English literature or poetry." She placed the booklet down with the huff, " to be honest it is a compulsion to choose either of the two n I do not like literature nor poetry."

Tessa raised her eyebrows in apparent shock. It was true that she had not chosen any subject and neither had her made with these subjects were quite heavy for a child who was just 17.

She smiled at Adeline, "I'm not sure how schooling works here honey. How about you attend them today and tell me how you feel about them? And on the other hand I will talk to Korr about it."

Adeline looked at the booklet kept on the table. She had no problem with attending the subjects if they were going to begin at beginner level with her. " Okay," she agreed.

"Let's go to the car then." Tessa said and had not changed because it was her mate that was supposed to take her to school for today. He was supposed to talk to the headmaster as her guardian and her aunt was going to pick her up.

This time when they climbed inside the car, Korr was not driving instead it was a driver.

"Adeline, if you ever feel uncomfortable with anything at the school I want you to come to me immediately about it. If I am not at home or unavailable I want you to leave a message with my secretary, is that alright?" He sounded pretty serious about it and with his expressions anyone could tell that he was not joking about it.

"I do." She agreed to his demands. If anything this had only spiked a small fear in her mind to what could be the worst that could possibly happen to her at the school. She was after all a human which meant that people could bully and pick up on her very easily.

When they reached the school there were not many people or cars in the car park. The driver opened the door for Mr. Korr and he himself opened the door for her.

He held out his elbow for her with a small smile on her face and she gratefully took it. Perhaps he was aware of the nerves that she was facing. After all it was a new word and a new school along with the tough subjects that she had never heard of in High school.

The woman nodded and went inside, only to come back with a small smile on her face and telling them that they could go inside to meet the headmaster. Another couple with a child younger than adaline walked out and then, Adeline and Mr. Korr walked in.

"Good morning Headmaster," Mr. Korr wished upon entering the office and Adaline noticed the change in his voice. He truly changed his entire attitude when he was talking to her and her aunt.

"Good morning Ambassador Quill, please, have a seat." He pointed to the one directly in front of him. Once Adaline and her guardian were seated he took his seat as well.

The headmaster looked at her, smiled a little and then nodded. Adeline's eyes widened at the sudden attention on her. She gave a quick smile back to him and then looked away.

She must have looked like a duck.

"I am truly delighted that you have chosen this school for your niece. I hope that she will like our school just as much."

She glanced at Korr now.

"I have no doubts about that. I have studied here as well. The only thing I am concerned about is that my niece is a human and they are not likely to be treated well." He gave him a pointed look, "and I talked of that from experience."

Adeline now turned to look at the headmaster for answers.

The man straightened in his chair and fixed his jacket slightly which had nothing wrong with it. "It has been a long time since you studied here and graduated. I assure you that things have changed." He looked adaline quickly before.in his eyes away and towards her guardian. It felt like they were conversing in between them even though they were conversing in front of her.
