The Vampire Prince

Prologue

The above photo is of Xavier's wolf, just with ocean blue eyes. The photo does not belong to me, I found it on the Internet.

Blinding white light, that's the first thing I see as I open my eyes, which by the way feel as if they've been sewn shut. My body feels like it's been hit by a bus, then thrown under train. My head is pounding, and there's this annoying ringing sound in my ears.

Shifting around a little, I find that I have numerous tubes and wires attached to my body and this weird semi circle like pillow under my neck.

Slowly the ringing dials down to be replaced by a soft murmuring.
"Where's Xavier he should be here," person number 1 says, their voice sounding soft and motherly.
"I don't know," person number 2 replies, there voice smooth, yet commanding. "You know how he is, the second some slut walks up to him he's lost to his hormones."
"I couldn't care less about his hormones, his mate is in the hospital and he's to busy fucking some bitch to even come see if she's alive let alone okay. He shouldn't even be thinking about other girls much less getting involved with them now that he's found his mate." Person number 1 snaps, their voice getting louder and louder.

Hang on a second did that chick say Xavier was with some bitch. No, no, no no! That can't be right he wouldn't do that to me, they have to be talking about someone else. She's got to be talking about someone else. Xavier wouldn't do that to me.

I shift around on the brick like bed and try to get up. "Slow down sweetie, your still injured," person number 1 says, who I now recognise as Xavier's mother, Clara. I stare up at her, before looking around. Benjamin, Xavier's father and Clara were here, but where was Xavier?

Tears start rolling down my checks as reality sets in. Xavier wasn't here. Which either meant he was seriously late, or he really was off getting his dick wet. I've never known him to be late to anything which means that what they said is true. He's off partying with some whore.

"I'm so sorry sweetie I know he meant a lot to you," Clara soothed, "he's an idiot and a dick for doing this to you." I laugh weakly at what she said, my mind still reeling at his blatant lack of care for me. Whether he wanted to be with me or not he still could of come to see if I was okay.

"I know this probably isn't the time, but do you remember what happened?" Benjamin asks, sympathy evident in his voice, along with barely disguised anger, towards Xavier's actions.
I see Clara open her mouth ready to retort and quickly rush to cut her off, "it's alright Clara I don't mind."
"I remember walking through the forest looking at flowers for our assignment. I was a long way from the group because I knew that the best flowers were found deeper in the forest. At the time I didn't think it mattered but as always I was proven wrong. I heard a low growl, the bushes were rustling and I felt as if I were being watched. Umm." I rub at my head trying to relieve some of the pressure pounding against my skull. Clara batts my hands away and starts massaging my head. I shoot her an appreciative glance and she offers a small smile in return. I look towards Benjamin, "sorry it's a bit fuzzy."
"Don't strain yourself, if it's to hard then don't worry about it," Benjamin says, concern leaking into his voice.
"It's fine, umm, i remember a wolf. It was massive and had red eyes, it looked as if there was foam around its mouth. It came out of the bushes and lunged at me. I tripped over a rock and fell, it went sailing over my head. I ugh, I uh managed to get up and then started running back in the direction of the class. I didn't look back, but it sounded as if it was chasing me. Another wolf came out of the forest in front of me but instead of going after me it attacked the other wolf, the red eyed one. I stumbled a bit but continued running for the class when I was, at least I think I was, thrown into a tree or something. My vision was blurry and I was struggling to stay conscious. A third wolf stood over me and went down to bite me but something hit it, I'm not sure what but it looked sort of like a rock. I heard a voice and then bones cracking. A few moments later it sounded as if there was fighting, before a yelp echoed around the area followed by a thud. I managed to turn my head, I'd been trying to see what was happening before that but my body wasn't responding to me and it was so hard to even twitch a finger. Anyway I turned my head and looked at the wolf, it was massive, quadruple the size of a normal wolf, if not larger. It had glossy black fur and deep ocean blue eyes. The other wolf was laying behind it on the floor blood pooling from its neck. The wolf, the black one, started walking towards me, I tried to get up and run, but I couldn't move. At this point I was barely awake and conscious. Then there was that sound again, the bone cracking one, and the wolf. The wolf. It, it, it. It turned into Xavier." I looked up at them, my eyes wide, my heart thumping in my chest. Both Clara and Benjamin were looking at me, there eyes were glazed over and it looked like they were miles away.
"Isabella, there is a lot you don't know about us," Benjamin started, "I know we should have told you sooner but, we thought it best we wait."
"What, what haven't you told me? What's going on?" I look around at them desperately.
"Honey," Clara soothed, one arm around my shoulders, the other on my hand, her thumb moving over my own hand. "My husband, myself and Xavier, we and numerous others in the town, are werewolves."

Hey guys, I don't know what my update schedule will be like, because as I've said before, this is my first book. I'll do my best to not leave you hanging for longer then a week, and I'll try to make the chapters as long as possible, or do numerous short ones, but, again I just don't know yet. Please let me know what you think in the comments section. Friendly criticism is welcome, but rude comments are not. 🙃
