You and Sejanus had really lucked out this time; not only had both of your families bought their way into the capitol, but you both ended up going to the Academy together!

Atleast you had someone who knew you to be by your side for the rest of your long and very, very miserable school years.

As you stand by his side at the entrance, arms linked together, you take a deep breath.

"Ready?" Sejanus asks, turning his head to smile at you sweetly.
