I had forced Lord Akagi to spend the night at the mansion. You rats might wonder why I call him "Lord" Akagi. Well, because he is my lord. His books have the power to drive me away from my daily boredom to a world where only he and I exist. And I will tell you what, I purchased his books when they first came out and turned the market upside down. I remember that era, when the banners of his books used to cover Moscow streets and so many shows, came out within a year—Sadly, I couldn't watch them since I have no television with me. I have been a loyal fan since the beginning and my loyalty paid off!

I couldn't believe that my idol was sitting right before me, devouring the same Zakuski as me. He looked so wholesome—A man that could win any woman's heart at first sight. He had everything I wanted in a man. Firstly, he was a man and he looked like it! He had those broad shoulders and back that I wanted to hug. I had a big, fat crush on him. I was just drooling at his sight while eating my food.

Then, I saw Lict and choked.

"Milady,"

"I swear I didn't do anything wrong!"

"Okay? Do you want seconds?"

"No,"

Wait—Why am I explaining myself? This is my house! I can do whatever I want and I shall stare at whoever I want to! Nobody can stop me!

"Vierene," He called my name! Lord Akagi called my name! Even though he pronounced it wrong, he said it in his manly voice! I was embarrassed. Nobody had called me by my name for so many years. I turned red, "Yes, Lord Akagi?"

"Quit staring at me, will you? You've been acting dangerously straight and I'm genuinely concerned about your motives. Listen, woman, I don't care if you're straight or bi or a goddamn lesbian for God's sake but when you do all this staring and creepy-ass shit to me, it makes me extremely uncomfortable. So, I'm gonna ask you to stop right now."

A young girl has dreams but this man, he doesn't have a heart! I got up, "I like you!" I shouted, shamelessly. "There, now it's not creepy anymore."

"Listen, keep your fetish away from me," He warned me but when someone tells me not to do anything, I take it as a challenge, not a warning. You want to stop me, huh? Stop me from happening!

"Please marry me!" I shouted.

He blushed and pressed his temples in embarrassment. I had won! "Listen, you barely know me, we just met like a few hours ago and I tried to kill you." He explained why we wouldn't work out.

"You just explained every relationship of mine." Melissa turned towards him.

"Shut up, Melissa." Lict snarked. Was he annoyed? Or maybe... jealous?

Do you know what is better than me? Well, literally nothing! But what's better than defeating a male in an argument? Watching another one get jealous because one of his own kind was getting crushed by a hated female.

"You know, that's why being pansexual is the best. You can seduce anything you lay your eyes on and is compelling enough to pique your interests. Otherwise, there's always meth." Melissa, what in the world do you smoke to come up with things like this? Because, girl, Meth is definitely not as bad as your condition—As far as I've read.

"By the way, how old are you?" Melissa asked me.

"I'm seventeen."

"That's the peak of your youth, isn't it? I swear Lict looks younger than you."

"Lict, how old are you again?" I asked him as he poured us some vodka.

"I don't know. I don't count my age.."

"Oh hey, listen to this," Melissa got up "Just do an approximation, Lict." She smirked at me.

"Let me think," He said as I enjoyed my drink. Vodka is considered to be the national drink in the great mother Russia. So, I drink it proudly. Though, it's extremely diluted. Thanks, Lict. He doesn't drink it though. He is such a child.

"I think I'm probably 125 million years old now."

I spat. Lict kept the bottle aside and got me some face tissues. I cleaned the vodka from my face and chest. "You're frickin old!" I shouted at Lict.

He smiled. Don't smile!

You're a disgusting, old man! No wonder I wasn't attracted to you, you grandpa! My body knows what is fresh and what's not! But, didn't we form a contract already? He tricked me! That's it, mortals. I'm calling the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

"Well, so you are a high school student?" Lord Akagi asked.

"Why? You're into high schoolers? I've had enough of pedos around me. Nobody is allowed to make the list any longer!" I announced.

"Why make the list long when something else could do the same and give you pleasure?" Melissa raised her eyebrows and grinned like a little devil.

"Just answer the goddamn question." Lord Akagi demanded as he pulled Melissa's ear.

"No, I don't."

"Why?" He asked as Melissa frantically tried to pull away from his grip.

"My sila doesn't allow me to. I can break anything I touch. With the right hand, it's matter and with the left, it's memories."

"'Break' Huh?"

"That's a nice name," I said. Melissa shouted as she finally pulled away.

"It hurts now!" She said, "And I like it!"

He punched her on her head. What was going on? Who likes being hit? "You haven't seen the world, Milady," Lict whispered as he picked up the utensils and began clearing up the table. I looked at him and he smiled. My heartstrings pulled tight.

Wait a minute! No! This is wrong! You can't love two men together! I'm not a whore! But Lord Akagi rejected me... How can he reject me?! If I were a man, I would not fear to make love with myself! Because well, I'm beautiful and well... I read books! So, it means I'm smart! I'm an alpha female! I'll let my pheromones do their thing now.

He can't reject me. He must have been drunk or it must be this creature with a vagina! I glared at Melissa. She stared back and smirked at me. Was this an open challenge? Come to me! She literally came towards me. I did not expect that. Lict was done with the dishes and came back to the dining hall.

"I'll put you to sleep now, Milady," He smiled. What am I, a toddler? Don't you dare bring your gay ass near me! Melissa wrapped her right hand over my shoulder,

"You know, Vierne," Did she just call me by name? This peasant! I pushed her hand away. I don't befriend my rivals, especially weird stars like her "A dick has a sad life," She said. I'm actually surprised how can someone in this world be so creative that they can blow your mind every time they open their mouth? She was definitely otherworldly.

"Shut up! Nobody wants to know it's life story!" Lict tried to cover her mouth but she dodged him "His hair is messy, his family is nuts, his next-door neighbour is an asshole, his best friend is a pussy and his owner beats him habitually."

Everyone just stood there silently. She was too unholy to be kept near me. I suggested Lict we throw her out and he agreed, suggesting that we throw Lord Akagi out too. No! He was to stay here! Lict pouted and I perceived that we weren't throwing any of them out very soon.

"I hate everyone," Akagi sipped his coffee before bed. That was it. Everyone was losing their sanity "And now I'm feeling good about hating everyone."

"You're so hot even my underwear is falling for you" Melissa stared at him. Now, isn't that creepy at all?! But he didn't react to it. So, I am creepy when I stare at you but she isn't when she even has the balls to mention her underwear?

"Females don't have testicles, Milady." Lict was being annoying again. Wait—Did I say it out loud?

"Won't you reply to that, Lord Akagi?" I asked.

"Every other guy wants a lot of sex in his life unless he meets a girl who wants a lot of sex," He replied. Seriously, I could feel my brain heating up. I was up to my limit.

"Are you referring to yourself, Lord Akagi?" I asked him, sarcastically. He choked on his coffee and Melissa started laughing.

"You speak too much, I bet if you'd run like your mouth you'd be in good shape." He looked into my eyes. Oh, so he was challenging me now? Oh, how much I love you, Lord Akagi.

"Is that why you're so lean? You must run like your mouth." I smirked.

"Bitch, please! I've got more muscles in my tongue than your entire body combined. Worry about your flat ass" Akagi said.

"Flat?" I touched my hips.

"That's sexual harassment!" Lict said.

"Yeah, let Lict touch them!" Melissa suggested and Akagi punched her on her head. He took a deep breath

"I've come to a point in my life where I need a stronger word than fuck," Lord Akagi said.

"Why not say "Kill me now"? It sounds good, especially from your mouth." Lict forced a smile.

"Oh, Lict went very dark there," Melissa said.

Why is Lict so annoyed? But I noticed something, he turned more golden when he was annoyed. This intrigued me. When else did this happen? I wanted to know. "Lict," I called out his name and he turned less bright. So, that meant he was calm now? This was so amusing.

"Anyways, I'm tired." Lord Akagi stretched his arms "I'll go back home now."

"No," I stopped him "It's pretty dark. You should not go to the forest this late, it's dangerous."

He smirked "Say this to a mortal," He went out and Melissa followed him. I was embarrassed. Well, sorry for caring for you, sir. I turned towards Lict. He smiled "Do you want me to set the bed?"

"Yeah. I feel sleepy."

Lict arranged the bed and I climbed on it. He leaned towards me as I shrivelled back. He looked into my eyes and pressed his hands on the bed as he pinned me against the wall.

"Milady," He whispered "You don't have to run after a man who doesn't treasure you. You're looking for light at the wrong place,"

He smiled and moved away. He switched off the lights, "Good night, Milady." The door closed and the room turned dark. I snuggled into my blanket, with my left hand hanging out of the bed.

I guess, being treated like a toddler, isn't that bad.
