I stare at the sleeping girl, she is my future and the future of the Kingdom. The Vampire Kingdom. She had soft auburn hair, pale ivory skin and plump red lips

Someone grumbles and I turn and stare at my adviser, Oxford who has been there since the second rise of the bloodsuckers. He has helped me a great deal and will continue over the years.

"Your Highness the Queen needs to be changed soon or we will have to wait another twenty years," Oxford informs me, I sigh and turn to her, my Queen.

"Let's begin," I walk over and brush a piece of her auburn hair from her neck and inch closer.

My fangs ache at the proximity to blood, I open my mouth and bite her neck injecting my poison into her bloodstream. I quickly release my grip and take a large step back, she arches her back and lets out a scream.

I wince but don't move, the changing process is a delicate thing and has been tried over the years but has failed. Oxford thinks I'm the only one who can successfully do it.

The screaming continues for a few minutes before she sighs and I see a hint of white in her mouth. I take a step forward and gasp, two fangs are resting on her plump red lips gleaming white and ready to pierce.

She shivers once and her eyes open revealing two soulless rose gold eyes, the pure hunger in those orbs are wild. I never thought a human could be turned into a vampire-like me, much less a female.

"Evelyn," I speak her name softly and she perks up, instantly she throws herself at me and plunges her fangs into my wrist.

She purrs as she starts sucking blood from my veins. I already know her instincts are controlling her, she might live off instincts for her whole life.

"My Queen would you like a robe?" Oxford asks noticing her lack of clothing, Evelyn perks up and moves my wrist so she can see Oxford but doesn't answer.

"Would you like a robe, my love?" I ask, she looks at me and I know that normal human functions are gone from her mind and are replaced with instincts.

"Not yet Oxford, she is running off instincts not human functions," I reply for my love when Oxford leaves she moves closer to me.

She lets go of my wrist and licks her lips in satisfaction for her first meal as a vampire.

"Come on my love." I take her hand and walk out of the small room, she follows without hesitation.

I feel my skin vibrant as I lead her down the grand hallways, she is connected to me and only me.

I reach the door I wanted and open it revealing my chambers, a dark room with a large bed and bathroom connected to it. She peers around the room and tugs me to the bed, she curls on the bed and I watch her body go still.

Oxford comes in making no noise as usual and I nod at him,

"Go ahead but be careful." I remind him, Oxford nods and walks forward to my love.

He slides his bag onto the bed and opens it carefully making sure not to wake Evelyn. First, he checks to make sure she is healthy and changed without a hitch then take some of her blood.

"Well?" I raise my eyebrows waiting for an explanation from Oxford, he hands me some of her blood.

"Try it." I take off the cap and dump it into my mouth, I taste nothing not even the taste of iron.

"It doesn't taste like anything." Oxford nods and grins knowingly, I wait for him to answer.

"That's because it's your blood, the Queen's blood is yours that's why she fed off you not me. I don't think she will drink anyone else's blood, anyways the Queen is healthy and will sleep for a while to recover from the change." Oxford explains before taking the vial from me and leaving with his bag.

"Get some rest as well Your Highness," Oxford says before exiting the room, I take his advice and slip beside my love and fall into a deep slumber.

"She's mine!" I growl at Count Adler, the second eldest bloodsucker alive, he thinks that the Queen should be passed around so others get to decide if they want a wife.

"Your Highness it would promo–" I cut him off by growling, Adler shakes a little which makes me smirk showing my fangs.

"She will not be passed around like a toy, she is my wife, not yours," I say calmly, the doors open and Oxford leads Adler out the door before I kill him.

Wouldn't be the first time I've killed my kind because they did something stupid.

Oxford returns smiling, he hates Adler and loves when I kick them out.

"She's awake," Oxford says, I rush out the door at breakneck speed and throw the doors open to see Evelyn's rose gold eyes staring at me.

She's wearing a loose blood-red dress that stops below her knees and shows her collar and arms.

"How was your sleep, my love?" She looks at me for a second before grabbing my wrist and drinking my blood again.

She purrs as she drinks and I smile at her, she finishes quickly and lets my wrist go but takes my hand instead. She starts dragging me out the door and I follow blindly.

"Where are we going, my love?" She doesn't answer me but instead gives me a smile showing her bloody fangs.

We stop at a large door and I know immediately what she wants, outside. She opens the door and a rush of ice-cold air shoot me in the face, if I wasn't dead the cold would get to me quickly.

Evelyn dashes out yanking me with her, a huge grin breaks into her face and I see her eyes light up. The snow is falling gently landing on Evelyn making her shriek happily.

"Like it, my love?" She turns and smiles before prancing around in the snow barefoot and gleeful.

She stays outside for an hour until the snow around her is flattened and the snowflakes aren't falling. Evelyn huffs and walks back inside forgetting about me, I smile and follow her back to our room.

She is laying in the bed staring at the ceiling that is filled with pictures of the bloodsuckers and humans fighting. I see her smile at the ones where I win and hiss at the ones where our kind dies.

"That's the pictures of the war we had. You will have some on there too my love." She jumps slightly and frowns at my comment.

I lay beside her and she curls up beside me and falls asleep. I run my fingers through her hair and look at the pictures.
