A Special Moroï

Chapter 1

Yes, the St-Vladimir school was over. Me and my best friend Lissa Dragomir were going to study in Leigh, the royal university next to the court. Ah and I'm Rosemarie Badica but all my friends call me Rose.

Out of school. So if we were out we must have guardians and we will know ours tomorrow. For now, me, Liss, Christian her boyfriend, Eddie a friend and Mia an another friend just wanted to celebrate the beginning of the royal life. These two, Mia and Eddie will gonna be Liss' guardians but we weren't sure yet. They were friends so even if they weren't moroï, we invited them.

In our party there weren't any guardians except these two because they were all worried about their assignation tomorrow. I didn't want anyone especially but as a member of a important royal family, I should probably have a very good guardian. Didn't want to be pretentious really. And it was Liss' and Christian case too. But, anyway, I asked to Mia who was the best guardians we can possibly have : there was Dimitri Belikov, she told me that he was 24 and he was already considered like a battle god and the seconde best guardian ever, even I was young. And there was also Arthur Schœnberg. I knew him, he was the best guardian ever but Mia said that he already hadn't any family to protect because she died when he was very sick and replaced by another one who didn't do his job very well. The circumstances was terrible but I was hoping that I will have at least one of them, it would be so cool, a god to protect me. I would be so proud to have one of them.

We arrived in a room known only by us and we started the "party". I was hungry like always so i ran to the table were Mia put the chips like 30 seconds ago. She gave me a desperate look but with a smile and walked over to talk with Eddie. They were very close, like best friends or close partners. I wished to have a partner like them, Lissa was like my sister of course, I can't live without her near me but weren't like them because them, they fight together, they defend together. It's not the same thing, like they have some of a link, I saw them, when they fight each against the other, they always know what the other is about to do. Then I went to Lissa :

"- Happy that school is over ?
- No, not really...
- Why ? School is boring and we are going to Leigh, the best university we can have.
- First, school was fun and second, the university is a school too.
- Oh come on, school as a damphir is fun yes, they don't study a lot unlike us with our boring subjects. The only good thing was when we trained our powers but nobody knows how to train spirit so it was also boring to me.  And yes it's a school but university is much bigger and we can do what we want because we're adults. And  we can meet new sexy boys too.
- Talk for you, I already have my sexy boy you know."

She put a little cute smile on her face and gave a look at Christian, her boyfriend. They were cute too. Am I the only one who doesn't have boyfriend like Liss or close partner like Mia ? After she asked me, if someone was interesting me but ewww no.  She seemed to be a bit disappointed.

About 3 hours later, we decided to go to sleep in our room for the last time. I didn't like very much this school because they think that moroï must be protected but who protect dhampir ? Yes they can protect themselves but it's hard to protect both himself and his moroï. I don't say they are incompetent but we have to fight with them against the strigoï. With our powers we could be helpful. I don't like watch them sacrifice themselves for us while we can defend or help them. Like always, it wasn't my case. Last year, we found that my specialities wasn't any of the four known powers : air, water, fire or earth. I was specialized in spirit so that is why I'm certain to have guardians tomorrow because even if we were allowed to protect ourselves and help guardians, my speciality can't attack. I can treat wounds on people and I heard that other spirit's users can talk we someone in his dream; It's fantastic but it can't help fighting.

But as I walk into this room, a lot of memories came out like when Lissa first came here without permission (because she's not that type of girl) or when our squad reunited for games and gossip. Just like the good old days. There were some bad memories too, like guardian Alto who walked like every day here to tell me what I wasn't allow to do and what punishment he gave me. I wasn't this type of moroï who didn't want to be so impressive and be like "look at me I don't follow the rules", I just wanted to have fun. Sometimes, I wished I could be a dhampir, came through the sun, train instead of study, eat hamburgers, kick ass and all of this but as a moroï I cannot be at sun, I have to study to have a good job, I must drink blood and nothing else. I love my life but she can be quite boring too.

So I got to sleep with these thought in my head and hoping our first days at the royal court tomorrow will be as great as I used to imagine it since childhood.  Because yes in my childhood, I imagined myself as a beautiful princess with the two strongest guardians in the world and going with Liss at university and then she will became the queen and I will be with her, helping her to make difficult choices. It would be fun but life isn't pretty much like that.
