Adrianna caught the broomstick in her hand and held it in a firm grasp. 

Isidorus went on to explain, "The broomstick has formed a connection with you Adrianna. Now it will listen to you. When you mount it, think you are mounting a horse. Your mind is its leash by which you are going to control it. The broom is going to absorb your plan and fly accordingly. In case you have changed your plan, don\'t worry, it will read that too. Whatever you do, you need to give a clear picture of what you want from it. 

​​

"No one will be able to ride your broom other than you unless you allow them. This is why each wizard or witch has his or her own broom. Otherwise an entire family could use one broom for their various purposes. A broom is like your car."

"How do I mount it? The wooden handle is so thin that I will fall from it," wondered Adrianna. The broom moved slight left and right in Adrianna\'s hand as though it felt insulted for having doubt it\'s capabilities. 

Isidorus said, "Just sit on it whichever way you feel like without doubting it…" 

Adrianna pursed her lips, took a deep breath and then mounted it with both legs on one side. To her surprise, the broom balanced her beautifully as though she was sitting in her car seat. Adrianna laughed. The broom slowly lifted in the air and as though it had read Adrianna\'s mind, leisurely it circled Isidorus. 

"This is so interesting!" Adrianna squealed like a child. "How do I stop it if I want to?"

Isidorus tilted his head. "You got to tell it. How do you stop your car? In a similar fashion apply brakes to your broom."

Adrianna was thrilled. She flew around the Royal Palace like a child going zig zag atop the broom. The peace of the Royal Palace was shattered by a childlike Adrianna who was speeding, screaming with delight on her broom. She would whoop into the air, her robe flying behind her. Heads turned, the servants saw and laughed at her. Adrianna touched a pond below with her feet while flying above it making the ducks skitter further into the pond. In this place of tranquil the noise of Adrianna was such a welcome change that the atmosphere lifted and the lifeless palace became lively. 

Adrianna\'s thrill came and end when Isidorus asked her to come down. He had come to talk to her about Mihr. 

While walking inside the palace, Adrianna held her broomstick in her hand. A servant appeared to take it from her. Adrianna gave it to him but was shocked when she saw that it misbehaved and hit the servant on its own. "My queen, please ask your broom to behave!" cried the servant, as every time he tried to hold it, it would hit him. Adrianna chuckled and instructed the broom to be good. In the next second, the broom became cordial and offered itself to the servant. 

"I would like you to get close to Mihr, and so we have kept a gathering in the evening with the council of ministers. Apart from them, there will be some eminent professors and their wives. It will start at 8PM so be there. If possible ask Dmitri to come with you," instructed Isidorus. 

Adrianna lowered her head. She was sure that Dmitri wouldn\'t join her. She remembered the note she had written to him and wondered whether he had read it or not. Also, she wasn\'t exactly in a mood to talk to him after he would have ordered the execution of her brothers. She nodded lightly, "Okay…" 

Isidorus left. It was time to go to the academy. 

After the first class, Lile joined Adrianna for the potion class. "Adrianna! Hi there!" 

Adrianna smiled at her newfound friend. "Hello Lile."

"Why didn\'t you come yesterday?" asked Lile.

"I was unwell and had fever."

"Oh God!" Lile stopped in her tracks. Adrianna also halted. Lile took her hand to Adrianna\'s forehead and said, "Are you fine now? No fever? You should have rested and not come to the academy!" said Lile fretting over her. 

"Lile, I am half-werewolf," Adrianna chuckled as though she was informing her. 

"So?"

"So, the werewolves have a tendency to heal very fast. Our wounds heal within minutes of being formed." Adrianna started walking.

Lile\'s eyes became wide. "Really?" She started walking backwards as she face Adrianna. "Oh my god! This is so interesting! What was the fastest you\'ve got healed?"

"What do you mean?" 

The two friends walked to the potion class discussing about werewolves excitedly. 

"You don\'t need to learn anything from the potion class Adrianna. I mean you heal automatically," Lile laughed. 

"Well, I am here to learn how to make the potions for others like you," Adrianna teased her. "Now can you tell me what happened yesterday when I was absent?"

"Nothing much. Professor Lane asked us to continue with what we were doing last time," came a bored answer from Lile. 

Adrianna frowned as she looked at Lile. "You sound so bored Lile."

"I was very bored yesterday. The entire class was unusually quiet," answered Lile. "Oh, by the way, did you know that the boy who had tried to pull blood out of Liam has been suspended from school for a long time now. Perhaps he would lose a year and sit with the junior class to clear the final exam." 

Adrianna exhaled heavily and said, "Yes, I know…" 

"How is Liam now?" asked Lile.

"He should be fine. I hope to meet him after the academy." 

They had reached the class and sat down with their group. The three boys who were assigned to be in their group were excited to be with Adrianna. All of them greeted her with a smile. Before the class started, one of them, a boy with light brown hair gave her a small pink flower that he might have picked from his garden, inviting everyone\'s awkward laughter.

"Thank you." Adrianna accepted it royally and kept the flower on the side. 

Professor Lane entered the class. He looked at Adrianna and then at the rest of the class. "Today we will learn how to make an antidote for poison."
