**New World, New Rules**

Eddie Kingston stepped off the bus and onto the winding driveway of House of Anubis, his eyes scanning the sprawling mansion that served as a school for students from all over the world. The imposing structure seemed to loom over him, its stone façade exuding an air of mystery and tradition. As he gathered his belongings, Eddie couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. He had heard whispers about this place, about its unconventional approach to education and relationships. The school's headmistress, a poised woman with piercing green eyes, greeted Eddie warmly as he entered the grand foyer. "Welcome, Eddie. We're glad to have you here. I trust your journey was uneventful?" Eddie nodded, still taking in his surroundings. "Yes, it was fine. But I have to ask, what's going on here? I've heard rumors about...about the way things work at House of Anubis." The headmistress smiled, her expression understanding. "Ah, yes. Our unique approach to education. You see, Eddie, the world is a complex web of relationships, and we've found that a dominant-submissive dynamic is a natural part of human interaction. It's not just about power struggles or control; it's about understanding and embracing our innate roles." Eddie's brow furrowed. "But what if I don't...fit into that? What if I'm not the type to...submit?" The headmistress's expression turned gentle. "Eddie, this isn't about forcing people into roles they don't want to play. It's about recognizing and embracing our biological instincts. We've found that when individuals understand and accept their place in the dynamic, relationships become stronger, more balanced, and more fulfilling." As she spoke, Eddie's gaze wandered to a group of students gathered near the stairs. One student in particular caught his eye – a confident, charismatic girl with piercing blue eyes and raven-black hair. She seemed to radiate an aura of authority, and Eddie sensed that she was a dominant, a natural leader. The headmistress followed his gaze. "That's Patricia, one of our top students. She's a strong dominant, and I'm sure you'll...get to know her better soon enough." Eddie's curiosity was piqued, but before he could ask more questions, the headmistress handed him a schedule and a map of the school. "You'll find your classes and accommodations listed here. I'm sure you'll settle in quickly. And don't worry, Eddie – we'll help you discover your place in our little community." As Eddie took the papers, their eyes met, and for a moment, he felt a spark of...something. He wasn't sure what it was, but he sensed that his life was about to change in ways he couldn't yet imagine. The headmistress's voice interrupted his thoughts. "Now, I think it's time for you to meet your fellow students. The annual pairing ceremony is about to begin. Please, make your way to the Great Hall." Eddie's heart skipped a beat as he followed the crowd of students toward the Great Hall. He had a feeling that his life at House of Anubis was about to become a lot more complicated – and interesting.
