Roman laid on the bed. His body stretched on it with his hands placed under his head. The Dormitorium had turned quieter, and so was the university campus, as most of the students had left to visit their family or friends. He was enjoying his early post morning nap when someone knocked on the door. "Rome?" It was Maximus at the door. He decided not to answer it and act as if he wasn't in the dorm. "I know you are in there," came his friend's sing-song voice from the other side of the door. With not…-

When the sun rose the next morning, the lunchroom had reopened, welcoming students to have their meals. During lunch hour, Julie sat at the table with her friends. The helpers had emptied the tanks before refilling it, and by the time of the evening, the vampires were free to have their meals. As the following day was a weekend for all the students and the staff, where the students were allowed to meet their parents and spend time the way they wanted, evening buses had been arranged for the students who…

"W-where are you taking me?!" shouted a student with a frightened look on his face, who was right now being dragged by two other students away from the sight of the other students to be locked in the dungeon. The student, who was a human, appeared frightened as he noticed blood on the vampire's mouth, who had tried to suck him. He tried to run away, but the two vampires were stronger than him. The dungeon was located deep inside the backside of the restricted area of the forest which was hidden. It…

Mr. Helm, the teacher for Julie's class, now stood in the headmistress' room with the two girls from Junior year who had gotten into a fight. The room held the same quietness as the first visit when Julie had been dragged in here because of Roman and Mateo's fight. Ms. Dante stared at them with a grim expression on her face, and there was a frown on her face, and her lips were set in a thin line while watching the two young girls. The male teacher cleared his throat and said, "Ms. Dante, Ms. Winters…

Julie, who had stayed tight-lipped about her time before coming to Veteris, had told the truth to Roman only because he already knew some things about her through their exchange of letters. Having said it out now, her chest felt lighter. "I thought people are usually sympathetic when it comes to situations like this," commented Roman. Both he and Julie were sitting on the bed with their backs leaning against the cold wall of the dorm. He had taken out his lighter and had flicked it to move his thumb…

Julie stared at Roman's sleeping profile as his body appeared relaxed, and his chest moved up and down as he breathed in and out. It looked like the black cat had finished strolling around the campus, had eaten all her chips and was now resting in her bed. Walking towards one of her closets, Julie pulled out the blanket. She knew that if someone saw her now, on what was doing, they would call her an idiot for taking out a blanket for him because instead of taking the chair himself, he had chosen to…

Music Recommendation: Vanishing Haze . Julie sat on the chair, watching Roman who laid on her bed with his eyes closed. She was unsure if he had closed his eyes just to relax or if he had really fallen asleep. After he had tried to intimidate her, she had moved to sit on the chair, where she quietly watched him. "Roman?" Julie called his name, but receiving no response from him, she believed that he had indeed fallen asleep. But after five seconds passed, Roman asked her, "What is it?" "I…

Noticing the tall and dark shadow of someone behind the window of her room, Julie felt a sheen of sweat form on her forehead. She didn't see how the window was unlocked, and now it was left slightly ajar. The person didn't completely open the window or did a hand appear to sneak through the little gap to pick up her letter. On seeing the outline of the person's shadow, Julie turned worried. She had believed it to be Roman, but when the shadow moved closer, she noticed the person behind the window had…

Julie's eyesight through her glass felt nothing less to a foggy window. Before she could check what Roman had done to her glasses and asked him why Ms. Piper said, "Action!" Roman knew the reason why she didn't want to take her glasses off her face. Julie had come to believe that he had stopped bullying her, but instead, he was back to bullying her openly in…

The vampire, whose face had been bruised, wanted to tattle-tale on what Roman had done to him. But revealing the truth in front of everyone that Roman had stolen his prey, especially when vampire students were allowed to sink their fangs freely during the night of Hallow, would not just send him to the headmistress office but would also end up with a stake in his heart. Because letting the humans know about the vampire's existence was not allowed. Ms. Piper shook her head and said, "With your face…
