Valid question
'*Bathump Bathump*
midst of the silence that has swept All and sundry, who had perched in the office of Director Lauren, the most feared personality of the University of New Orlean, were all tight-lipped as hell without any attempt of utterance, just darting with those cut sharp gazes of there onto the statue of innocence whose heart has been palpitating louder than any loudspeaker, my head was buried in my neck, dodging all those blaming gazes! '
Why wouldn't it be?!
I, Willow Stone, a fresher from the house of music who has earned it to this office by just the beginning of the 3rd day of her existence in this alienated state of New Orleans, has done the most ludicrous thing of calling into questioning the director on her face, and not just any question like 'How many gallons of blood do you usually drink every day?' or 'Do you prefer human blood or lamb's blood?', I have straightforwardly questioned her justice making processor, how many people can do this?! even a psychologically ill person would have thought infinitely many times before committing something so egregious, even murder could be diminutive than this!
And I know it, because, apart from any criticizing gaze on me, those rusty red eyes that lie at a distance sitting on the throne-like leather seat, were ostensibly vaster and thunderstruck, for some reason, god what I am saying?! Of course, my question is the reason- but I didn't do air guns, my question does hold validity!
'cause wolves may combat bitterly yet openly but vampires- are just shifting in the dark, always making an effort to hunt, to feed on the corpse of their prey, digging their fangs into their lifeless.. souls...
"B-Blood! "
A vigorous chill drives through my body and the goosebumps outset to raise with that bloody feeling in my soul that is obstructing my breath,
As if someone was wringing my neck!
"I'm here for vengeance! " that's the voice of that vengeance-seeking vampire, isn't it?!
But why it was so loud and clear?!
I turned my head still keeping it low... But absolutely, there was no sign of him! Was that voice coming from my head?! Am I going mad?!
That's serious, something peculiar going on inside me!
Abruptly in struggled to veer, I caught his eyes, gorgeous as always, the eyes of Professor Tyler that were synchronizing onto me, with the same distasteful ness shining in them, but there was something else, as I zoom into his face, his nose was creased as if he's not breathing?! -
"kh...Please..khkh.. wake up... please...please... Don't Die! "
Huh?! What... Where is that agonizing sobbing sound coming from?
And who is dying?!
Lots of questions...
But, still, no one's around me!
Am I getting possessed by a soul of this castle?!
Unexpectedly,
*Ring Ring* the bells for breakfast time rang at the highest pitch, breaking the ice of silence, at a go, that as if blew life back into the motionless public,
But, also professor hurriedly gushes away his gaze, and I felt like I was also pulled back from something, I can not give a right name-
More like POSSESSION,
Oh heavenly spirit, am I seriously possessed?!
shortly enough, Miss Infamous also slowly stands up on her feet in a very lethargic action, running her fingers through the thick brown hair that was falling on her face, finally pressing out words through her tongue-
"Ahem, seems like our conference has come to the end... " and everyone halted their so-called yank-yank movement, and stood in attention position holding to their hearts, expecting the worst that was yet to come-
"... but for you all...the incident of last night was against all the rules and regulations set up by the university's code of conduct, henceforth, every single defaulter is penalized with community detention for a week, and for future reference, the warfare frolicking of the werewolf will happen under the stringent supervision of Mr. Prez, if this incident happened again, the next punishment would be expelling! Now dismiss! (said in her shrilly voice, twisting herself to face the bookshelf of thick books of black-brown leather covers stacked behind her throne in a well-arranged manner ) "
Every single student frowned,
But... In me...my thoughts were blending in a stunner and bafflement-
That's all! I mean although I have got double detention now but... My whole concern still was- Seriously, that's all!
She didn't even address ' the vampire question ' on which we were like keeping silent for almost 5 minutes?!
Well, I don't know if I should be happy or sad!
Happy that she didn't address it or sad that she didn't address a valid question like that?!
But in any way, I am secure of a termination...yet...
But I couldn't stand one thing yet- why did Professor Tyler save me?!
With my questionable gaze mine, I examined him with my x-rayed eyes, and, my dog nose could sense his lavender scent from such a distance,
'Why?!' I questioned in my soul, but that handsome piece of rudeness didn't even peek at me, who is staring at him like like a meerkat, but he just kept on glimpsing at the other side of thfrowninged faces not a dubious face like mine, okay, I admit I do not have as beautiful features but quite spectacular, and worth a second place, I guess?
Unexpectedly, As if Miss Lauren, got some knock inside her l, she rose her hand to her chin and turned away from her majestic bookshelf towards the populace that was almost about to bust outwards of the office anytime-
"Professor Tyler please stay in the office, rest vacant the chamber immediately! " her words were so bitter they seem to drive a hole in my chest, Not Professor Tyler!
My heart and my world were arrested just by hearing his name through her lips,
Does that mean...
"of course, Director" He nodded without any disinclination towards the devil, herself, effortlessly thudding his feet on that colorful floor decor, not even turning back a bit- towards the world which was ready to spill out of the office,
Leaving me questioning-
Why did he do that?! Lying for what?!
And still, fighting for what?!
What's his benefit in all of this mess?!
Why?! Why?!
"Are you waiting for a spanking?" without any potential warning, someone held my hand in the crowd, almost freaking me out again, as I lifted my karate chop hand in self-defense, confronting the one who was trying to mess with the wrong girl-
"Gods! I would have killed you, vibe!" I cried screaming knowing where we were still, in the devil's den, trying to shed his hand but... He chuckled and continued sarcastically
"Killing me with your 'imperishable chopping hands' ?! Good luck with that but let's find somewhere in isolation where the crisis won't find us... "
And in his usual fashion dragging me through the same way that we came but I can sense that feeling in the atmosphere around me that, it was all so, I couldn't sum up any more trouble than they already have! Quiet genuine, I must say...
Well, who's saying-
A monkey like me who only know how to get in trouble?!
Although everyone was happy to leave this dreadful yet artistic office of the director, dissatisfaction was inevitably visible on their faces!
"I'm full already"
And talking of faces, that Luna who came to relish the show, was going satisfied at least,
but still, my body was somehow reluctant to leave, to leave Professor Tyler who was getting vanished from my eyes as still I was dragged out by Viber, and my face was still concentrated inside-
"He will be fine... " abrupt enough, Viber said in a whisper, was I being so venerable with my feeling
"I don't know but how can I leave Professor in the devil's den, getting him punished for something he didn't do, to cover for someone so unworthy like me!"
Unexpectedly, Viber turned putting both his hefty hands strongly on my shoulder, and eyes straight into mine, does he forget we are still in a big rush?! -
"You are not unworthy and he's not a child, he has got into this willingly, and of course not because of you so stop reproaching yourself! "
Should I?!
"You a**hole! " the black-haired boy, the same from the pack of wolves that was staring at us unmercilessly from the medieval shelved corner earlier during the meeting, appeared out of nowhere flashing his punch in my direction,
God, what did I do?!
But, Viber held his hand firmly, getting on shielding me behind him, AGAIN!
"Miles! What the hell are you doing?! "
Wait, he is MILES?! That evil big black wolf from yesterday night?!

Inside the office that was now vacant of all those wolves- was left with the director, professor, and the PA, Claire (the pale-faced lady) who stood with her head down as if a paralyzed limp,
"Please don't embarrass me, professor, take a seat... "The director very politely spoke out still standing by her shelf, shuffling some books off her shelves,
"Thank you ma'am for your kindness but I don't deserve to sit here... "
"Why are you dreading? I didn't find a leak in your lie! Congratulations on your preparation and facts!"
A wave of astonishment spanked on professor's face but then he hurriedly covered his face again in a neutral expression of him, as she began again, still opening and closing books on her shelf,
"I have been teaching criminology for the last 200 years, and I know when one is fibbing but... It's intruding to witness a student of mine for 50 years who is now a professor himself, had he never said a lie in those 50 years but...Suddenly one day, he come to my office amid a trail rotating everything for... A delinquent girl?! "
And, she hands a book with red strips to her P.A
, director's expression hung in levity as she finally turned to face the professor-
"So...What's so extraordinary of that nuisance that made a good lad like you, go off tracks?"
(Hey readers,
I am not making excuses, my mother got sick and she turned the lights off earlier every night recently but... I got this chapter with more than 15k, wait for sorry 1.5k words, so I guess you have read it, and maybe found the description of the character going way too big, well I did it that's why it took 2 days of head smashing and I wasn't happy from the outcome but yet I release it because every chapter has their importance,
Yours,
Author)
