Mr. Petrovic led me into the elevator, which I was extremely scared to go in because of what happened last time.

The elevator doors open and we enter a humongous room, not that all the other rooms aren't huge but this is the biggest one I've seen so far.

"Lilian, this is my favorite room of the house. The library," Mr. Petrovic says while walking around all the bookshelves. I take some time to look at the books and some have never been touched.

"Mr. Petrovic, do you have an art room?" I ask because I love art and I want to paint when I get bored here.

"A matter of fact, yes we do," He says leaving out of the library and entering the elevator.

We get out of the elevator and enter the art room and must I say this is better than the library.

"You may come here whenever you feel you need," Mr. Petrovic says while gliding his fingers across the paintings on the wall. They were beautiful, looked like they were painted in the early 1900s. They were amazing.

"Mr. Petrovic?" I ask. "Am I supposed to be homeschooled?"

He stops gliding his fingers on the hung up paintings and turns his attention to me. "Uh...yes, yes you will be," He smiles.

"When, sir?"

"Perhaps you'd like to start today?" He asks while messing with unfinished looking paintings.

"Actually I do," I smile. I'm actually wanting to go to school.

"Okay, Ms. Lilian. Follow me," He smiles and leads me to the elevator.

Then elevator doors open and we enter another room filled with books. He must really love to read.

"Do you like to read a lot, Mr. Petrovic?" I smile as he leads me deeper into the room and places me at this humongous table.

"Why, yes I do. Reading calms the mind," He smiles. "Vorlel!" He claps. And Mr. Vorlel comes running in here.

"Yes, sir?" He says with that strong accent.

"She wants to start lessons right now," He says and Mr. Vorlel and him both sit beside me at the big work table.

"Ah yes, well okay Ms. Lilian," He says and starts to pull out notebooks, textbooks, and papers. He hands me a history textbook. "Please, turn to page 174."

I do as told, "Ouch!" I hiss in pain. A stupid paper cut.

Michael Petrovic's POV

"Ouch!" Lilian hisses in pain. I turn my head to see her finger in her mouth.

"Whats wrong?" I ask. She takes her finger out her mouth and shows me the dripping blood.

"A deep paper cut." She whines, I think she's about to cry.

No! She can't be bleeding I can't have a bleeding human in here. The smell of her sweet blood makes me want to suck it all up  right now.

"Vorlel, get her! Get her out!" I yell angrily. Not angry at them but at myself for being this way. Lilian has a confused look on her face but I can't tell her.

Vorlel was taking too long to get her out so I rush out of the room. Vorlel is like I. But he's been way longer than I have and can control his hunger for human blood.

Lilian's POV

After Mr. Vorlel helped me with my paper cut I went to my room ready for bed.

I wonder why did Mr. Petrovic run out like that. Does he have a phobia of blood?

I take a quick shower and put my pajamas on right when I get out.  I heart a knock on my door once I was about to go to sleep. I get off my bed and walk over to the door. To my surprise it was Mr. Petrovic.

"Yes?" I asked a bit scared of what happened just 30 minutes ago.

"Sorry for how I acted," He says. "I just can't be around blood...uh I'm not...used to it."

"No problem," I yawn. "Goodnight."

"Goodnight," He flashes me one of his signature smiles, "Sweet dreams, Lilian."

I smile back then close the door, and walk back to my bed.

I wake up to the sound of scratching. I look up at the clock to see it only says 5:53am. I walk closer to the room door where I here the scratching coming from. I slowly open the door to see that black cat.

It runs right through my legs and into my room, "Oh my God!" I yell and jump up.

"Everything... alright?"  I hear someone ask in the same deep accent like, Mr. Vorlel has.

I look up to see a tall man in my door way wearing all black: black hat, black gloves, black shoes. I stare at him waiting to see if he'll say who he is.

"Lilian? Everything alright?" They ask me again.

"Mr. Petrovic?"

"Yes?" Oh it's him.

"Oh, it's you!" I chirp and hug him. He hugs me back, surprisingly.

"Yes, why wouldn't it be me?" He chuckles.

"I don't know. But you scared me, why are you dressed like that?" I ask, "And sorry that I hugged you I was just surprised, I do that sometimes."

"I'm sorry if I scared you," He pauses, "And I'm dressed like this because I'm...going on a night stroll, yeah. And don't worry about the hug, it's okay."

"Oh, okay. What time do I start lessons tomorrow? And can you please be my teacher? Mr. Vorlel-" I look around to see if he was maybe near by, "Scares me," I finish.

"Yes, Ms. Lilian I could be if you want. And 6:30pm, in the same room as yesterday okay?" He smiles.

"Okay, well I'm going back to sleep, Mr. Petrovic, goodnight."

"Goodnight," He smiles and walks away.

                              ♣

I wake up and put on my robe and slippers. I head downstairs to see a plate with a note attached to it.

Hello Lilian,
Don't forget lessons are at 6:30 and same room as yesterday
~Mr. Petrovic

I crumble the note and throw it away. I finish eating and I walk upstairs to get dressed. I just realized I don't know where I am, what state, city, country. I could be in Switzerland.

I go brush by teeth and wash my face, like I do daily. I change into my afternoon clothing and walk down to the library. I grab a book by Shakespeare and begin to read it.

I look up at the big clock on the wall saying 6:26pm. I have to meet Mr. Petrovic in the learning room.

I take the elevator to the learning room and I'm immediately greeted by Mr. Petrovic.

"Hello, Mr. Petrovic," I smile.

"Hello, Lillian," He smiles back. "Also, you can call me Michael.

"Oh, umm I prefer, Mr. Petrovic." I say.

"I insist."

"Okay, Michael." I say, which sounds weird coming from my mouth.
