If I Was Your Vampire

CHAPTER 10 : The Story Of The Half-Vampire Princess

Okay, I just wanted to update before I had to go back to school guys! Thanks!!

After Lucas slammed my bedroom door closed, I looked through my new closet. Woah, there were a lot of clothes. The closet itself was about the size of my new room. I walked in and tried to find something comfortable to wear, since I would be sleeping soon. My closet was bigger than this one, but this one had more shoes! After finding a tank top, undergarments, and shorts, I fled to the bathroom to shower.

It was a long day and I was looking forward to a nice shower. I slowly walked into the large bathroom and found a huge tub in the middle of the white marble floor. I didn't want to take too long so I took the shower. I found strawberries and cream scented shampoo and vanilla scented conditioner. I skipped the conditioner part because by that time I finished shampooing my hair, Lucas had used up all the warm water.

While I was towel drying my hair, I heard a knock on the door. "Come in," I called out. I turned around and Anthony standing at the doorway with his hand on the doorknob. "May I speak to you outside?" He asked gently. I was taken aback. He sounded unsure of himself.

"Yes, of course. What is it?" I asked quietly. "I'm sorry for bothering you, but I'd like to have this conversation in the living room," he gestured outside. "I'll be right back," I replied, walking back to put the towel away.

When I came back, he was gone so I walked out into the living room where he sat.

"What is this about?" I asked him, settling down onto the soft loveseat. "Well, I think I may have found out why you are only half immortal..." he trailed off, his eyes wandering towards the hallway.

I looked the where his eyes were focused and saw him. Lucas was standing there, looking incredibly flawless. I let my eyes roam his perfect body. His arms were huge with bulging muscles and I wanted to reach out to trace his abs... I shook out of my daydream and looked away. I didn't want to think about how much his abs reminded me of Carter's. The way he smiled proudly at me when I absentmindedly traced them when we cuddled... In my peripheral vision, I saw his eyes were still focused on me.

Anthony cleared his throat and I turned my attention to him. "I think that you may be the daughter of King Ambrogio," he began. 

"Who's that?" I interrupted. 

"He's the Vampire King," he explained. "If it's true, it would explain why our powers don't work on you," he gestured towards Lucas. 

"Powers?" I asked, my eyes never leaving Anthony.

"My power is Aura Perception. An aura is the spiritual energy field that people and objects give off. Usually, auras convey the feeling or emotions someone gives off in a range of colors. I can see those colors in someone's aura," he explained. "I wasn't able to figure out how you were feeling because you were blocking me out," he continued. 

"Sorry, I didn't block you out on purpose," I quickly apologized. I heard Lucas quietly laughing but I didn't turn to look at him. Instead, I concentrated on Anthony's reply. 

"It's a natural defense that the royal family has. Other vampires can't use their powers on you unless you allow them to. Since you are only half, I was able to feel it when you were..." he trailed off. 

"When I was dying," I finished for him. He smiled at me sheepishly.

LUCAS

I listened quietly to their conversation. She seemed to be absorbing all this information pretty well so far. When Anthony mentioned her father, I silently knelt down in front of her. She was the the girl our King wanted. The girl that every vampire was after, and she sat in the loveseat in front of me. My heart shattered when I figured that there was no way she would want me now. She was possibly a princess and I was a normal vampire. Don't forget that she also has a boyfriend, you idiot!!!  My subconscious reminded me. I wished I could hear her thoughts so I could figure out if she believed the story.
