It was always the same. Every time he found love it would leave him. It left him broken and depressed.Then it hit him harder then ever before. He may have loved many, but he had never fallen in love with anyone until he found her.

Only problem was, this woman was extremely ill. She apparently been always been frail and delicate, but Adrien couldn't have cared less. He loved her regardless. Her name was Laura and she was beautiful with her shoulder length chestnut brown hair that cascaded in unruly waves and her bright emerald eyes. Adrien had stayed by her side until the end. Three years had past since their meeting and at the end of their third year, she had passed on. He was struck by yet another period of depression soon after this tragedy. However this time it was worse than any other depressive time he had ever had.

He soon left the small village in which he met, and lost, the love of his unending life and wandered aimlessly across the country yet again. For a vampire, living a normal life was nearly impossible. He had tried countless times, god knows he tried, but it never seemed to work out. That was until he met Laura, but even then it was short lived.

It had taken a while, but after roaming the country for a few years, he had found someone he thought he could actually love. She was a beautiful woman with blonde cascading curls and ocean blue eyes.

Adrien, however, could not bring himself to love her for his heart remained with Laura. This woman soon left him for a man of immense wealth. Then, he once again wandered the country looking for a place to settle down.

It took a few decades, however, Adrien finally found an isolated cabin to settle down in. Also instead of living off of human blood, he turned to animal blood.

He grew bored over over the year, however, one day a young woman stumbled upon his residence after she had suffered a few injuries during an apparent hunting accident.

Adrien let her into his cabin to clean herself up, he lent her some clothes from one of his former lovers. He was shocked to say the least when he saw her after she had cleaned herself up.

She looked identical to Laura. She had the same shoulder length chestnut hair with its unruly waves, the same gorgeous emerald green eyes. She even had the same physique, though this time she was remarkably healthier despite the few bruises.

"L-laura?" He muttered, his eyes wide with shock and desperation. The young woman, whom he mistook for Laura, then gently explained that her name was Lauren and assumed he had mistaken her for someone else.

In return for his kind gesture, Lauren would come over and visit Adrien. She would sometimes bring sweets, such as cake and chocolates. Adrien rather enjoyed her company and soon fell in love with her. She, Lauran, would ask about his friends and family, though he often responded with lies, and she once tried to ask about Laura but after seeing his expression she had decided to drop the subject entirely.

After nearly a year, Lauren announced to Adrien what she perceived to be amazing news. She was getting married. Married to a vampire whom Adrien knew to be a cruel and bloodthirsty bastard.

However when he tried to warn Lauren, she refused to listen stating that he hadn't even met her fiance. Which, for this century at least, was true in some aspect.

It wasn't long after their marriage that Adrien received word that Lauren had been killed. He was pissed beyond belief as well as devastated along with a variety of other emotions that he couldn't name.

Deciding to get off his ass. Adrien searched country after country looking for the re-incarnates of Laura. Each time he tried to save them or help them remember him had proved to be nearly impossible.
