Chapter 21

Saryia

Lord James was called to meeting in London once again. Jamie had no interest in going this time, so she is at home with Lady Lucy. Exous and I accompany him to this unexpected calling. There be no other reason to call it, but to due with the hunters. I still have my plan, but I will not share it with them until I am in better position. I might be a lady, but I am of no import. My plan would only be taken credit by one with more status. My lord was hesitant to leave Jamie and Lady Lucy alone, but Exous assured him he has taken all measure to keep them safe until we return. I know not much on my lady's power, but I do know Jamie is very powerful. Although my dearest friend be very passive she has the same amount of power as I.

"Saryia my child." I come from my deep thoughts and look to Lord James.

"Forgive me my lord. Just in thought on this meeting."

"I have told you this many a time, you may call me Father." I nod them look at Exous. He smirks at me then looks out the window.

"I know you have not been to many of these meetings, but you must pay attention. The King and his daughter will be attending."

"The King and the princess?!" Exous says in shock. This is indeed intriguing now.

"Yes, this be very important. I know Elder Mary will also be attending. I have heard it be a trail and some sort of meeting. You two must be at your best. Perhaps Saryia you may introduce yourself to the King. I know him personally. I could introduce you."

"You would do such for me?" He laughs and nods.

"As I have done for my son I will do for my daughter. I will have to introduce Jamie to him as well. Perhaps you two may show him what you have been working on over these past few years." I nod.

"Aye. . . Father." He smiles and pats my leg and Exous'.

"I am very proud of you. Proud of all three of you." Exous and I smile. It is very touching the love and care Jamie and I have received from this family. I have not had this type of parental guidance and care since my real parents. I try not to think of them for I know they must have died or been outcasted due to me. Lord and Lady Kipling have shown me there still be a way to have a family and be happy even if I be a vampire. Lord James stares oddly at my jacket then pulls it apart reveling my vest and the two guns I have holstered. He only looks at me and laughs.

"I suppose there be some things that do not change. Saryia darling, please leave them in the carriage." I sigh and nod. Exous chuckles.

"I wonder if his majesty has heard of you and Jamie already. You two were quite famous. Everyone would always tell tales of you." I shrug.

"If he does then he may have a bad impression of me. Cannot have such things if we are to be of import one day." Exous nods then looks out the window. I look out and see we are entering London. How grotesque of a city it be. You can smell it before you actually see it. It bee a good thing the palace be in the countryside and we only have to endure the smell for a short time. This is what the humans call civilization. A great horse stall.

"Close the window." Lord James tells us. We close the window and ride past all the filth and sewage. Such a dismal place I do not see why so many humans come by the thousands. Oh aye I do. The factories they build here need workers. It is not of grand scale yet, but I believe in a few years it will be. The 1700's are still young in years. This may however be an opportunity for my business. One good bit of advice Father told me were to always take opportunity when it presents itself to me.

After riding through that dirty city me make it to the country. Once deep into a wooded area we make it to the royal palace. This home be of much lavish luxury. One day I shall live here, and one day I shall be queen. It be a beautiful home. When the carriage stops we go out. I see many carriages here already. It did take us some days to get here. Liverpool be a long ways. Once the humans get the trains settled it will be better to move through the country.
