Arseniy Popov

Ordinary school days, lessons, classmates, teachers. But is everything as simple as it seems at first glance? Of course not, not in our story. This meager school educates not just people, but the children of monsters. Werewolves, vampires, mermaids, and other creatures. The government knows nothing about this school, and it's hidden from public view. It was at this school that Arseny Popov studied. A vampire and also the son of the Great Count Dracula. Although Arseny belonged to a noble family, he tried to keep it a secret. Popov was as calm as the pulse of a corpse, quiet as a pool, and as secretive as a shadow. He rarely interacted with anyone, spending his breaks in the dark shadows of the hallway, reading a book or fending off annoying girls. Despite being unable to look in the mirror, Arseny looked perfect. His blue eyes were like snow in the ocean, but if he angered Popov enough, they would turn blood-red and dangerous, like those of a predator eager to attack and kill its enemy. Arseny had perfectly styled hair and a captivating smile. Any woman would swoon from his excessive beauty. Therefore, Arseniy tried to restrain himself and smiled very rarely. Like all vampires, Arseniy hated werewolves. These mongrels were too active, stubborn, and excessively annoying. "You only live once," "Nothing ventured, nothing gained"—literally their motto. Popov knew he would never get along with a werewolf. One day, Arseniy was sitting in his room, immersed in yet another book, when suddenly a committee entered and delivered some unpleasant news. From now on, Arseniy would have a roommate. A young man walked into the room hesitantly. He was quite sweet and even shy. He bit his lips nervously and kept adjusting his curly blond hair. Everything would be fine, but this guy was a werewolf. Arseny's indignation was beyond words. As the commission left, the guy wanted to get to know or become friends with Arseny, but he got ahead of him and started talking earlier, slightly baring his fangs.
