Vampire's Bride

Welcome to Rolumpus

Jacob and I don't agree with this arranged marriage. That tradition in the dark moon pack died decades ago shortly after Jacob's parents married. It was once tradition for the Adolpha bloodline to be pure, two cousins would marry and mate to purify our blood. But that tradition is dead, it died when my uncle James banned it, Jacob's father.

I look at the sky and see the private jet Arthur assigned to come get me. I looked around to get familiar with my environment and the theme of this jet was 1949; complimented by the classics and vinyl players. Dark red curtains stopped the sun from getting in. I offered all of Rolumpus sun rings to protect them from the sun to rewrite our wrongs with them...they don't use them, I think Arthur wears his though. Probably because I'm a Witch and Vampires don't trust Witches.

Just a lonely ride to Rolumpus. All by myself, its torture honestly because they know us Witches will think our heads off till we explode. Not literally.

Arthur is quite the guy though, when I did meet him he was very nice and calming. During a disaster he managed to comfort the scared, hurt, and afraid. I think that's a good trait about Arthur, he tries to help people that need help. His family history is quite the starlight.

I think its stupid how my father still tries to boss me around even though I'm 19, I know what I want and don't want. To marry Jacob isn't something I want. I'd rather marry a bloodsucking parasitic Vampire instead of my cousin! Surely, my mother can't agree to this, she must be against it. She knows that tradition has been dead since the last generation. I'm certainly not about to be the hybrid that restarts that tradition. Last time I checked, as long as an Adolpha by blood had their booty in the seat it doesn't matter who they marry.

I stretched on a long sofa. I took my long wavy brown hair out of the braid that's been giving me a headache. I rub my scalp for a minute, scratching easily. My father always says "Wear a braid, it'll enhance that beautiful frame" but he doesn't know the huge headache I develop while putting up with a long braid. I like my hair hanging freely, but when I know I'll be fighting I braid my hair and put it into a bun on top of my head.

My eyes gleam orange, a full moon will approach tonight. Luckily, being a hybrid I won't have to worry about transforming because I have control over that with my hybrid-like-privileges. Pure werewolves don't have to worry because they have moon rings. Werewolf eyes turn orange, Witch and Warlock eyes turn black (mine do too), and Vampire eyes turn red.

After WW3 using all the strength I could gather I made a palace come up out of the ground in Persiania. WW3 is commonly referred to as the 'Beginning of the ending'. It was only last year. It happened May 27th, 2024 and today is June 26th, 2025. With so little left, our new world was built from the ground up. Now with higher beings ruling and more advanced technology our world is so much greater. America and North Korea gave us immortals a new form of supremacy. I quite enjoy being in charge.

All humans in Persiania have put the fate of our country in my hands. They know that I'll always have the potential to care for our Kingdom. After all, my actions during WW3 showed every bit of potential I had boiled up in this body. My five year old daughter was there, she was four when I found her. She isn't necessarily mine, though. She is my adoptive daughter but will always and forever be in my heart as my baby. Now she is known as Lady Maria.

Soon my plane lands right in front of the Rolumpian palace. The palace has a lot of red curtains, no windows are open, there are towers at the corners of the palace, if I had to estimate it had five floors. Guards were keeping Vampires from getting by the ropes, keeping everyone away from me. As I got off nobody was booing, everyone was actually saying "Amun and Belisama bless Princess Elena of Persiania!"

I wore a short white lace dress with white laced flats and my crown sat on my head comfortably. I stood at the top of the jet staircases as everyone was praising me.

One of the guards proceeded to introduce me "Citizens to Rolumpus, King Arthur has strengthened our alliance with the royals of Persiania to help us in our time of need. I present to you, Princess Elena Adolpha-Delvaux of Persiania!"

Everyone cheers and my eyes catch Arthur standing tall in a black suit. His hair is combed back this time. I can say I preferred the ruffled style better. I walk to him and curtsey in his honor.

"Princess Elena, welcome!, you're so beautiful."

"Thank you, King Arthur, it's an honor to be in your Kingdom."

Artemis my wolf follows closely behind keeping her eyes on and around me at all times. Arthur escorts us into the Rolumpian palace. The doors close behind us and I let out a breath a little relieved the excitement is over.

He smiles "You'll be on the fifth floor with me, except you'll be in the east wing, I'll be in the north wing if you ever need anything."

I blush "Thank you so much, King Arthur."

"Feel free to explore my home, since it will be your home-" he looks at Artemis "and your home-" he looks back at me "for a while."

Artemis nuzzles her nose against his leg "She says thank you" I say.

He chuckles "Welcome to Rolumpus" he turns to leave toward the North wing.
