Read Fangs, Blood And Fate :: The boy

The elf noble boy that had been following us finally approached us. He spoke to Evindal first, stuttering and a blushing mess. He said,"E-Excuse me, w-what is your name?" Evindal was about to tell him before Aurora interrupted, her voice mischievous, "His name is Evindal." The noble boy whispered his name, trying to memorize it, "Evindal..."

Senori spoke, her voice sarcastic and plain, "And what do we have the honor to see the future heir of house Svyatoy?" The boy looked away sheepishly, stumbling with words, "Oh... I... Uh." A bunch of knights called out for the boy outside. Aurora smiled at him, her voice sickly sweet yet somehow mocking, "You should leave now, little duke."

The boy hesitately and reluctantly left Evindal and the others. Evindal finally spoke, confused and a bit angry, "What was up with that?" Aurora replied, "He is an alpha, and you're an omega, you two are also the same age. Better avoid him than let him think you like him back." Senori added, "Not to mention that he was kind of stalking us, specifically you."

Evindal replied, "Whatever, so, what are we doing next?" Nemo finally spoke after finishing dessert, "Going to explore this city a bit more. Since, we are leaving tomorrow." Aurelia added, "We need to restock as well." Everyone nodded at that.

Nyx, the kistune, whose name Evindal only learned two minutes ago, spoke, "Hey, Sihir, didn't you say you saw a lot of potential in this little fellow? And how you wanted to teach him magic? When we're leaving tomorrow, there is a place with a valley and cave, you two could practice there." Sihir's, the mage, eyes lit up.

Sihir said excited, clapping her hands together, "Excellent idea, Nyx!" Evindal ate the dark chocolate mousse slice that Nemo ordered for him, it was absolutely delicious. Evindal just nodded along. Aurora stole a few bites and earned herself glares from Evindal.

They finally left the restaurant and started restocking. Sihir brought a bunch of magic books for herself and to teach Evindal. Nemo restocked on food and water. Aurora restocked on healing supplies. As for Evindal, he restocked ok books to read and learn from. Like, the history of the empire of Aethernians, the history of the world, the traditions and culture of the 6 empires, etc.

Senori looked at what he was reading and asked, "You find history interesting?" Evindal nodded, "A bit, yes." Senori simply nodded. There was a tense silence for a few minutes. Senori broke the tension, "Do you find it hard to adjust?" Evindal replied, "Not really, I just don't get why everyone is so lovey dovey and friendly with me, especially since we just met yesterday." Senori chuckled, "True. Do you like the nickname 'Evin'?"

Evindal replied, while turning the page, "It's fine.. I don't mind it." Senori hummed softly. Evindal finally asked, "You're acting weird, why?" Senori just replied, "I was simply curious, nothing more, nothing less." Evindal nodded in understanding again.
