"Hello Edith," said a quiet, gentle voice behind me.
I twisted around (wincing as my headache pounded), and looked at probably the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. Her jet black hair shone as it cascaded in waves down her back, and her soft brown eyes took in my every mood, she was intimidating yet approachable at the same time.
"Edith-"
"Please, it's Eddy, I hate Edith,"
"Then you shall be pleased to know that here, at the House of Night, you can legally change your name to whatever you choose. That is one of many benefits that come from being educated here. Now, I am sure you are tired, confused, and in need of a good sleep, so I invite you to step inside and I will arrange some hot soup to be sent up to your dorm. You do not have a roommate as of yet, but I'm sure you will soon,"
"But Miss…Miss-"
"Zoey Redbird, and arrangements have already been made for your two companions. It is very unusual for a cat to choose a human, but you are obviously very special to him and I think you two will be very happy together. I am sure you have many questions you would love to ask, but I am afraid you will have to wait until this evening. Classes start at eight o'clock sharp, PM, as we are vampyres, and come and see me for anything you may need, as well if you may want to change your name, for I have decided to personally mentor you myself, meaning you can call me Zoey. Have a good sleep, Edith," She handed me a map with a circle drawn round a room, which I assumed was mine.
"G-good night…I mean day…uhh…Professor Redbird, I mean Zoey," I stuttered out as I scrambled up the stairs into the tower written on the map. I pushed open a heavy oak door and was faced with about twenty beautiful pale faces, all with the same crescent moon outline on their perfect zit-less foreheads.
And…silence.
