Cold!!

I woke up when the cold wind hits my face.

"Here." A second later I was engulfed by Sig's warm embrace. When I mean warm, really warm! Guess, I should not be surprised since he is not human.

"Nn." I end up nuzzling over his chest, inhaling his scent. The scent of pine and grass. Sig's smell.

"We better leave this place. Where should I go, Lucas?" I smirk when he didn't call me master.

"Hmm." I hummed and rub my cheek on the fabric of his shirt. Somehow I felt him tense a bit but his hold on me didn't loosen.

"Lucas." He said firmly.

"5 more minutes." I mumbled.

"Lucas." He hisses out. "It would greatly concern me if you catch a cold"

"I'm fine with that. I have you to take care of me." I said. For awhile he didn't speak so I look up to see him staring at me. His brows shaking at how deep he was frowning.

"Fine!" I said and recite a spell slowly. Our bodies disappears slowly as well then we land rather messily in a dark alley. Sig was fast enough to land on his feet and catch me. I end up laughing at his still deepening frown, patting his shoulder.

"Put me down." He did and he carries my backpack for me, crossing his arms over his chest.

"What?" I asked innocently and he narrowed his eyes at me.

"Next time I do the teleporting."

"Yeah, yeah." I wave a hand at him and walk out of the alley knowing he was following me. I just kept walking with my mind floating else where. I always do that and

always..

"Umpt!" .. run into someone.

"Lucas!" Sig and the man I run into helps me up since I miserably fell on my ass.

"I'm sorry! Are you alright, kid?" I look up at the tall man. His blue eyes met my own blue ones and I gaped at him then I frowned. Damn. He looks like a freaking actor!

"Lucas." I look up At Sig. I nod at his Are-You-Okay? look.

"Sorry." I said to the guy I bump into and walk off but stopping when my ankle stung.

"You're sprained?" The man asks. He was the one who held me up. I thought it was still Sig. I eyed Sig and he frowns at my feet. Guess he noticed too. He wears my backpack to his front then he grabs my arm, guiding me to his back. I snickered as I climb on his back. He's giving a 17 year old a piggy back.

"As you can see, I'll be fine." I said to the man but now he was eyeing, Sig which got me weary.

"Sig, let's go." I said but now he is eyeing that man too.

"The mountain wolf." He mutters but I heard him. "How..?" He looks as confuse as I am. Sig looks calm though. Still eyeing my injured feet not him.

"Come with me. I'll help you with that.." The man said and I met Sig's golden eyes.

"Should we?" I asked him.

"Whatever you wish." He says. I place my chin down his shoulder and shrugged. I know he'll protect me. Also, I can protect my self whatever may happen.

"Okay." I said, letting Sig follow the tall man.

*******

"Lucas, please wake up." I was not asleep, just napping. There's a difference. Sig was just so warm for his own good. I wanted him to carry me forever if possible. I was being greedy like that.

"Okay.." I pouted and was please to see Sig's smile. So even a mythical creature smile. I return his smile as he carefully sat me on a couch. Breaking out a yawn, I look around then up at the tall man. I would wonder why he stared at Sig but now, I'd definitely feel more comfortable in this fluffy couch if he would stop eyeballing me. We are in a private school or.. I don't know. It looks like it was a school. I was not really asleep all the way here, so I noticed the people here. Kids. Around my age or so. They were wearing some kind of uniform. It was bizarre. Uniforms made of expensive fabrics I can presume. Also it looks like it was straight out of a very elite school or university or whatever this place is. I also notice how those kids stare up at my- I mean.. stare up Sig!

"So.. what's up?" I asked and pulled Sig down so he can sit beside me and I can lean on him. I really love his warmth.

"So this kid is really your Master?" Something in me tick. I was already standing in front of Sig and of course he stood to, pulling my arm so we can switch places but I didn't let him. I deadpanned at this man who looked so bewildered.

"You summoned him?" He gape at me. I smirked and I saw Sig scowl at me.

"You knew quite well who he is more than me then?" I said and his eyes darkened, turning his sky blue eyes to a darker shade.

"A kid playing with spells then."

"I am not playing nor am I a kid, old man." His eyes grew more darker with rage. I smirk again.

"You even named him. You don't know the ounce of what you've done, brat." Brat, huh?

"I know. Very much so." Sig glared at the man and then me. He wrapped his arms around me. "Lucas." He called. I nodded. I started chanting and that man's eyes widened.

"Stop!" He was about to grab my arm but Sig growled at him. A force made him fell back. What shocked me is that he started chanting too and distracted me. I knew his spell. It was a nullifying spell but his spell didn't work which made him eyed me in what seems like.. Horror. He was gaping at me again. He was afraid of me? Why?

"Don't look at me like that." I said stopping my chant with only one word left to finish it.

"Lucas?" Sig eyed me then he glared at the man.

"You're distressing him, human!" He growled and I stop him before he could let me go. I shook my head.

"What am I?" I asked the man and he stood slowly, his eyes wide as he stare at me.

"You.. don't even know?"

"Would I ask you if I do?" I snap and he fell sitting on his armchair, sighing loudly.

"You're a mage. A Mage.. Like us." He eyed me and I look back at the eyes that mirror mine. Mage?

"What's.. that?" He face-palms and Sig lift my chin so I can meet his golden eyes.

"Spellcasters." He answered instead.

"Why were you stopping us from leaving?" I asked.

"You. How did you know that spell? How did you summon the Mountain Guardian?" He answered a question to my question? What is that?

"I just do. Now answer me." I said firmly and he deadpanned.

"I just did. It's because you knew that spell. How did you know a spell from that book. Claire de lune book of spells."

"Claire de--what now?" Sig answered for him again.

"It's a French word for Moonlight." Oh..

"It's the only book of spells having completely all the 10 levels of spells. Plus it disappeared thousands of years ago. So how.."

"Disappeared? I just read it an old library back when I was 12."

"You can't possibly!"

"Well I did!"

"What? Is it still there?"

"I only read it once. Go check for yourself." I sighed.

"Sig." I faced him and thread my fingers over his fringe. He eyed me for awhile before he smiled at me.

"Wait!"

Sig just glared at him while our body fade.

"I said wai-"

"Don't. You. Dare." Sig growls again at the man. Staring back at the man who was eyeing me. I wave goodbye and that's it. We're in front of an apartment.

"Great. I saw this in a news paper once."

"I got the place right then." Nodding, I walk in the building with Sig on my tail.

"Is there an available room?" I asked the landlord on the front desk and was relieved they still have a room.
