In my story Sophie is more independent and speaks her mind a bit more than in the books. She is still sarcastic and witty. She also has a bit more understanding of her powers not much more than in the books, not much but a bit. I will also skip over different parts of the book as this is a work of fiction. I do not want to take lines from the book. Enjoy.

Smut in this chapter and explicit scenes.

As Jenna and I walked into the dinning room I could not help but be surprised. The room did not look like what I expected. It was a large room with many mismatched tables that looked like the dining section of a flea market. The where large mirror's that were covered by what looked like tarps. There was a huge table on a raised platform were the teachers were sitting and another platform for the food.

The amount of food was impressive and Jenna explained it was only for the first night. I fixed a plate for myself and looked for a table while Jenna got her plate. I found a small one near the doors, I looked at Jenna and she nodded. As we sat down my legs bumped into the table causing Jenna to laugh. As I ate my food I asked Jenna about many people here, the teachers, some of the students. I also looked around and saw that the Bitch Witch club was looking at me periodically. I made a mental note to keep and eye on them.

"Are any of the staff part of the Council?" I asked Jenna.

"Mrs. Casnoff is, I don't think the other teacher's are though." Jenna answered She asked me about my life and I told her what she wanted to know. All the while my mind was spinning. I desperately needed to draw or workout. The stress from the day was getting to me. I also had a feeling that something else was about to happen. One thing I learned is to trust my gut. I really trusted only a few people in my life.

At the end of dinner Mrs. Casnoff rose to stand. The gut feeling returned. When she announced that dinner was over and that the new student's had to stay. Fuck. As people were filing out to go to their rooms I turned to Jenna and said that I would be catching up with an old friend tonight. I had told her about this friend through dinner. She nodded and said she would see tomorrow when spoke.

" Mr. Cross , where are you going?"

Archer stopped by the door "This isn't my first year" from their it escalated a bit. Apparently did not really believe that Archer knew that he had to hide his powers. During this time Elodie put her hand on his shoulder as if to show him off to the rest of the school. In the end Archer walked over to the seta next to me grumbling as he sat down. I merely raised an eyebrow at him and waited for whatever Mrs. Casnoff had to say.

The presentation was a display of humans reactions to many different types of Prodigium. Then explaining our 'enemies'. I had to laugh at that mentally. Really if the wanted to take us out they would. They could just target this school. They could easily slip a teacher or student past as one of them. I had felt the spells that were around the island and the school to protect it. They were weak, if that is what they considered 'strong' then they would be in for a rude awakening. Many of the students looked shaken and as Mrs. Casnoff looked over them her eyes locked with mine. I simply showed an exasperated look she looked a bit mad but I merely sent a her a look that said 'Fuck off'.

As we all filed out I headed right upstairs. I needed a smoke and a quick workout. I slowed down a bit when I heard a 'Mercer!' I did not stop completely. I felt a hand grab my shoulder and spun around, taking the persons arm and twisting it behind their back. I pushed them against the nearest wall or tried to. The person hooked their ankle to mine and pulled their foot forward. We both fell and I felt and arm being pressed into my neck. I looked and saw Archer Cross smirking down at me.

"That's what you call self-defense?" He asked looking amused. I smirked.

"No, this is." I flipped us over and pressed my arm to his neck. He laughed quietly and I truly looked at him. He looked into my eyes. Suddenly we were in a dorm room in Hecate, one that was not being used and had been converted into a single room. I got up and looked around walking toward the windows. It had a closet a large bed with dark brown sating sheets on it. The whole room screamed us. There was a bathroom with a full shower and bathtub and the windows overlooked Hecate. I turned to him and raised an eyebrow. He smirked and walked over to me wrapping his arms around me so my back was against his chest. He started kissing my neck and shoulder causing me to moan.

"There are silencing spells and privacy spells around this room and on the window's" He explained. "No one will bother us"

I turned in his arms and kissed him. He returned the kiss. One of his hands going to my waist the other to my hair. Three months. Three months since we had seen each other. Since we had done anything. What? You expected me to be a virgin?

I pulled away to look over the room. Marveling at how well he had gotten everything right. I noticed he was looking at me again and decided to really give him something to look at.

Smut! Explicit scenes!

I stared to unbutton my top slowly. He was watching me with a hard look in eyes.

I slowly unbuttoned the top and slowly revealed the black Victoria's Secret bra I had on. I pulled the top apart and let him see just what I had on and he moaned. He walked toward me but I stopped him. I let the shirt hang loosely with half of the buttons undone and went to my skirt. Before I reached it I snapped my fingers and my shoes and socks were gone. I reached behind me and slowly unzipped my skirt. I froze when he unbuttoned his shirt, unlike me he unbuttoned it all the way and simply let it hang on his body. His socks and shoes were gone as well.

He walked up to me and before I could stop him pulled to him and kissed me, hard. I returned his kiss and felt him unzip my skirt as I slipped his shirt off of his body. It hit the floor as my skirt did. He pulled back and looked at what I was wearing. Matching black panties from the same brand. He growled and looked at me.

I smiled and could see the excitement as I looked him the eyes. He ripped my shirt apart sending some of the buttons flying. I gasped and smacked him in the chest.

"You ass! What am I going to do tomorrow? Walk around with that on?"

"You will not." He told me "Do you have any idea how the other guys see you?" Archer looked a bit annoyed.

"They said quite explicitly what they would like to do to you" He growled and pulled against him again.

"It took all my self control not to walk over to where you were, lay you across that table and send a clear message" He threw me onto the bed and crawled on top of me kissing me again. We truly did love each other. We had tried to break up and see other people. It did not work. I smiled against his kiss and said

"Mi sei mancato cosi' tanto bambino" He pulled back and grinned before replying

"Ho perso a. Cosi tanto. Ogni volta che sono con lei ci si sente come sto barare su di voi"

"E 'parte del lavoro. Se si pensa che lei ei suoi amici convocato un demone, allora devi seguire il vostro intestino. Se questo significa avvicinarsi a lei di avvicinarsi a lei. I undertsand.." I told him. It was true if he suspected they had raised a demon than he had to get the information. If that meant getting closer to her then so be it.

"How do you put up with me?" He asked me with a smile

"I ask myself the same question about you" I said. He smiled and pressed his forehead to mine. We just layed there like that for a few minutes before we looked at each other again. We kissed and I pulled back nodding at him.

"How long has it been?" He asked me breathing hard

"Three months" I replied He grinned.

It was a good thing the room had silencing spells and privacy spells because we would have woken the school up. Once we finished he and I layed next to each other with nothing but the sheets covering us. He reached over to the alarm clock on the table beside the bed. Setting it to five am. That would give us plenty of time to get back to our dorm rooms. I took a deep breath. I was completely happy and content. His arm wrapped around me pulling me to him as he kissed my temple. We held each other as we fell asleep.

Italian to english translation

Mi sei mancato cosi' tanto bambino is I missed you so much baby.

Ho perso a. Cosi tanto. Ogni volta che sono con lei ci si sente come sto barare su di voi is I missed you to. So much. Every time I'm with her it feels like I'm cheating on you.

E 'parte del lavoro. Se si pensa che lei ei suoi amici convocato un demone, allora devi seguire il vostro intestino. Se questo significa avvicinarsi a lei di avvicinarsi a lei. I undertsand. is It's part of the job. If you think that she and her friends summoned a demon than you have to follow your gut. If that means get close to her then get close to her. I understand
