Chapter 4
Understanding
The king of Dark is my father. That would explain why I wonder so much about the Dark side. I guess that's why I can hear the thoughts of them.
"Wait if I'm Dark how can I also hear Light, and why have I been living on that side my whole life, shouldn't I have been living with you instead on the side of the Light, how come no one figured out I am Dark?"
Eric just chuckled. "Aurora, breathe and let a man talk." I blush.
"Sorry I'm just confused and want answers but..."
"But you have so many questions to be answered."
I smile sheepishly. "Exactly."
Well let me answer and hopefully I will answer all your questions okay?
I smile, happy to finally get answers, and hopefully it will explain why everyone keeps calling me DarkLight.
Yes sir.
Eric laughs, "Way to make a man feel old, call me father, Aurora."
I nod and wait for the story, sitting down on one of the leather couches, black of course.
"Well Aurora, I met and fell in love with your mother just after I met her. My father and I had to go visit the Light castle, because I was about to take control of the throne, as your mother was about to take over hers. As you have noticed we might have a wife or husband but there is only a female ruler for Light and male for Dark."
"To keep balance" I mumble. I look up and see him proudly smile at me.
"Exactly, anyways when we switch rulers we always have to meet with the other side, to go over truces, rules and such.
I was sitting in the conference room with my father, when she walked in. She absolutely stole my breath away. You have her looks you know. Her hair was up, but you could tell it was a wonderful shade of almond, a shade I have never seen before in hair.
After that meeting we started meeting in private, dating as you would say. We kept dating for about 3 years, and your mother got pregnant with you, we didn't know what to do no one could find out about us.
She did the only thing she could, her parents were trying to hook her up with some prince or whatever, she did and mated with him, telling him later that the child was his, only certain people know your true origin, on the Light side anyway, everyone here knows who you are anyway. Your mother married him, even though it hurt us both.
She sent you away so he wouldn't notice your strange tattoo. Your "Parents" already knew who you were."
I look at him digesting what he just told me. "So you're telling me that queen Victoria is my mother? No it's not possible Light and Dark can't mix it's just not possible. I mean sure my tattoo is half Dark and half Light, but I just, there's no way." He looks at me not at all shocked, it's like he expected that reaction, and with that story he probably did.
"You've seen the queen, you can't tell me that you don't look like her, because you do, plus you have my eyes, which only run in my family, and my black hair."
I just slightly nod my head, now that I think of it I do look a lot like the queen.
"Princess, you've heard enough today, you're going to overload. Come on I'll take you to get some food."
I look up I had completely forgotten Lucas was there. I look over to my father, he just nods his head. Take care of her Lucas.
"I will your highness, I need to talk to you later about my Angel."
I look up at Lucas, he had a strange look in his eyes. Angel is what we call our soul mates, we are like what people would call werewolves that way, no there's no such thing as werewolves, but the mate story is true, just the females are called Angel instead. I see my father looks over at Lucas, then his eyes widen. Eric raises his eyebrow as if in question. I see Lucas nod his head slowly. Only the males know who their Angel is at first, the Angel feels the same even before they know, the bond works the same, and they just don't know at first why we have the feelings. Lucas grabs my hand, come on Aurora lets go get you some food.
