As soon as she said that, the counsel members began to scream and argue amongst themselves. Their words were flying back and forth, faster than bullets. It was nearly impossible to keep up with who was saying what, but I managed to hear snippets of some phrases.

Selene and Count Vladimir were saying something's along the lines of ,"She is the first Pure that's been in centuries. We claim her as the high priestesses bride.", "Oh shut it you lesbian witch. She will marry my nephew, the Crowned Vampire Prince.", "Unlike you homophobic mosquitos, we witches do not care for gender. Besides she's already very well acquainted with the high priestess, they'll make an excellent pair." ," You say you don't care for gender but it's still a mystery as to why you've never been in a relationship before you tired old hag! And if we're going by acquaintances then by all means she'll marry my nephew, they've already met!", "Who's fault is that huh?! You want to fight you walking corpse?!", "Bring it on, we do have a score to settle after all."

Oh right, I have met them. It's been a while though, I wonder how they're doing?, I thought to myself.

From the other side of the table the Werewolf counsel man was yelling at them both, which added into the commotion. "She will not marry any of your kind. She is a werewolf, therefore she belongs to our Prince!" Both Selene and Count Vladimir answered him at the same time,"Shut it, you mutt!"

The Dragon representative, who hadn't said a word, finally spoke up, and his voice resonated with great power,"SILENCE! ALL OF YOU!", everyone including the counsel quiet down.

Conner, asked them what the hell is going on. But hurry.

Okay.

I inhaled deeply and stepped out from behind my dad,"Excuse me? If it's not too much trouble, can someone please tell me what's going on?". The counsel members looked at the Dragon representative, waiting for him to answer.

"Very well. You are what we call Pure. Which, as the name indicates, means exactly that. Pure's are very hard and rare to find, so now we have a bit of a...problem, if you call it that, because every species wants you to marry their prince or princess. Including myself."

I took a moment to analyze what he said and then spoke up,"So I'm like a wife candidate for everyone?"
He chuckled a bit when I said this,"If you put it that way, then yes."

"So...if I for example, were to kiss someone, like right now, I would no longer be 'Pure'. And that would no longer make me a candidate for anyone.Right?"

He hesitated a moment, pondering my question, before he replied."Well you would still be Pure, just not entirely. Why do you ask?"

I turn and look back and call to my mate,"Hey, you up to help your mate?", he quickly caught on to what I meant and nodded rapidly. I broke out into a run, shoving my brothers and people out of my way.

Faster. Faster. Make it to him, I thought. I saw him struggling to reach me as well. Just a little further. But right before I reached him, claws encircled my waist I was thrown into the air. Suddenly something very hard bit into my wrist.

I screamed and heard others calling out to me, but I passed out from the pain before I could answer.
