presentation

C H A P T E R 2

"Hey, Faine." I saluted my roommate who yawned and scratched her hair, she yawned in response and took a seat.

"Good morning, Hemilia." She said tiredly.

"Not enough sleep?" I asked with my cup of tea in my hand.

"No shit, Sherlock." She replied with a cute annoyed face. Faine is a beautiful Asian woman with sarcastic comments. She's pursuing to be a teacher in economics.

"I will assist in your presentation if you want." She suggested as she takes her morning coffee to wake her up.

"If you have time." I said with a nervous smile.

I didn't get any sleep, at all.

Yesterday night was bothering my sleep, I couldn't stop thinking about his handsome voice talking to me as if I was his lover. His calming voice.

He was more beautiful than in the TV, I get to see his real and pure face. Who knew that the prince would hang out in the library at 4 am?

"Fighting, bitch." She held her fist up with determination, a toast in between her teeth. I laughed and rolled my eyes playfully.

I get myself ready. I pulled my hair into a bun and a necklace on my forehead, showing the symbol of Rosla that every woman must wear, males wear their necklace around their neck.

I licked my lips anxiously and get out of the dormitory to go to the building of medical.

This building has doctors, pharmacists, psychologist and lastly magical physicians.

I took a deep breath and walked confidently inside of the building, holding my tote bag and ID card that I have to show to the security guard.

I meet Justin who was waiting for me, he's probably the only who don't judge me and laugh at me. I waved at him and he waved back at me.

"Hemilia!" He yelled and I smiled, I walked toward him and hugged him.

"How are you?" I asked as we walked together to our next class which is the biggest auditorium where I have to present my project.

"I'm fine, what about you?" He asked as he held the Gelium book like mine in his chest.

"I'm nervous to be honest." I gave him a anxious smile and he shook his head playfully.

"Don't be nervous, you will ace it!" He encouraged me and I laughed.

"I'm sure you will show off those men that they are stupid to underestimate you." He said giving me a confident smile.

I nodded and opened the door of the great auditorium, the door opened and my classmates were sitting there and talking.

"The bitch came!" A familiar voice that irked me with anger said.

Peter Gale.

The man-whore in our academy.

"I guess the man didn't get any ass." I rolled my eyes playfully as I heard his friends laughing and mocking him.

"Shut up Gran." He growled.

"I will once you are murdered." I snapped back and sat in the front raw seat with Justin throwing glare toward him.

I guess we are the only who hates him.

"This fucking asshole doesn't know who he's talking with." Justin snarled and I shushed him, calming him down.

Justin have anger issues, it doesn't look like since he looks like an angel. But unfortunately, he was diagnosed having anger issues, he hated that and demanded immediately people to help him because for him anger issues is a serious problem that needs to be taken care of.

"Calm down, he doesn't need our attention." I said calmly and he nodded with a dissatisfied face.

"Can we calm down here?!" The professor banged his book against the wall behind him, the auditorium went silent.

The professor we have here is someone who shouldn't be play with, he's a strong physician and the best here in the academy. He's young and brillant.

"Peter, I heard you are still harassing our only one woman here?" He mocked him, the whole auditorium laughed except me. Facts, the professor treats me like his princess since I was the only woman who is studying to be a physician.

"Anyway, today is the day where presentation starts!" He said with motivation, the people groaned in annoyance.

"I'm going to take that as a happy response." He said with a fake smile.

"Let's see who is more displeased to go first, you are going first since you are avoiding my stare." The professor pointed out the guy who was avoiding his stare, he stood up and walked toward the board in front of everyone.

"Fucking hell." The guy cursed.

"We don't curse in the auditorium, 1 point minus!" The professor yelled.

"It was only two words!" The guy snapped.

"2 points minus because you talked back to me!" He noted down on his notepad, the guy growled and gave him a fake smile.

"This man is going to have a lower grade." Justin whispered beside me, I frowned and pushed him playfully.

"Lovers, I know you guys are in love but please those snappy moments are acceptable in my auditorium." The professor said, referring to us. I jumped, startled and glared at my professor who only winked at me.

"Please sir, I already have a girlfriend." Justin turned his head toward the professor with a smirk, he didn't lie.

"Sure you do." He narrowed his eyes to Justin who only smirked.

He was dating my sister, Camélia. She's not here at the moment since she's the first woman to be a military commander.

"Be careful or my girlfriend will punch you." Justin smiled and looked at the man who was supposed to do the presentation. He cleared his throat and continued to do this presentation.

"Next is Hemilia, give her a round of applause please." The professor called me out, I heard Peter who scoffed and the professor smacked the back of his head. That will teach him.

I stood up from my seat and walked toward the board, I put on my USB in the computer and wait as the PowerPoint shows up on the screen.

I cleared my throat and was about to start my speech when a knock was on the door.

"Who dared to interrupt my class?" The professor groaned with annoyance, he's right I am also annoyed. The door opened with the principal and the royal guardian beside him.

The people who were in the auditorium stood up and bowed at the guardian, I also bowed at him.

"Sir." The professor bowed at the royal guardian and he nodded.

"Our highness and the royal guardian wanted to assist in Hemilia Gran presentation." The principal started to speak as I heard my name coming out his mouth, I frowned. Who will come and assist in my presentation? I know no one from the royal family.

"Oh well, our highness and the royal guardian are welcomed to assist in one of my class." The professor replied with a nervous smile.

"My highness." The royal guardian stepped aside to let the man going inside of the auditorium.

Everyone gasped and gaped.

I gasped and find myself backing out of the board.

Who knew that the fourth Prince will assist my presentation? Prince Rhyker, the man I met yesterday!

The people kneeled down for him even the professor. I bowed at him for respect.

Prince Rhyker smiled at me and walked toward me, I tensed and felt the anxiousness coming in my body.

"Hemilia, it's a pleasure to meet you again." He said with a soft voice, he cocked his head staring at me.

I couldn't believe it.

I cleared my throat, "my highness."

"Good luck." He sent me a flashy brillant smile.

"Thank you, my highness." I croaked out and looked at him taking my seat. The royal guardian glared at Justin who held his hands in surrender and walked to another seat.

Peter had this priceless face, his jaw hanging down.

I almost laughed at him. I looked at the professor who was confused but then shrugged as he took a seat next to Peter.

I glanced back at the door and saw that it was closed. I took a deep breath and stared at those hazel eyes piercing my soul.

"Anyone who disturbs Hemilia presentation will be punished." He ordered, not breaking his eyes staring at me.

I widened my eyes at him.

What is he taking about? Is he insane?

I looked up to see my PowerPoint who is ready and showing on the screen. I gulped nervously and started my speech.

But it was hard to do so when those deep hazels eyes are staring at me, analyzing my movements.
