Arranged Marriage To A Vampire? (Edward Cullen FanFic)

Jasper's Story

Sharna's P.O.V.

Jasper was tense as I waited for him to tell me his story. 

"It's not all a happy story by any means. I am ashamed of everything I've done and I can understand if you're scared of me after you hear this story." Jasper said. How could I be scared of someone who was my brother?

Flashback

"I was the youngest major of the Texas Cavalry and I was sent to evacuate women and children from Galveston. After evacuating those children I stayed behind and did on last lap of the city; making sure I didn't miss anyone. When I was satisfied i began my track to catch up with the rest of my men. 

About a mile from Galveston, I discovered three women on the side of the road and like a good soldier, I offered them my aid. I thought they might have been stragglers from the group. As I approached them, I realized that they were stunningly beautiful. There was a blonde, a brunette, and a Hispanic woman. I hopped off my horse and approached them, bowing to them in greeting. Their beauty stunned me into silence. 

"He's speechless!" The brunette giggled.

The blonde leaned forward, smelling the air around us. "Mmm... lovely." She sighed referring to what i now know was my scent. She opened her eyes and they were pitch black.

"Patience, Nettie," The Hispanic woman scolded her, putting her hand on her shoulder as she looked to be inspecting me from a distance. "Concentrate." She whispered.

"He's young, strong... and an officer too!" She whispered.

"But don't you sense it? There's something else there too." The Hispanic woman told them. "I want to keep this one." She smirked.

"Then you better do it, Maria." Nettie said. "I can never stop once I've started." She ended in a whisper.

"Very well Lucy, take Nettie hunting. I don't want to have to watch my back while I'm trying to concentrate." Maria told them.

The two seemed to disappear into thin air, leaving me alone with Maria. At this point, I was a little frightened, but I held my ground. I was not accustomed to having to fear women. i was raised to protect them.

"What's your name, soldier?" Maria asked, bringing me out of my shocked state.

"Major Jasper Whitlock, ma'am." I answered politely. 

"I hope you survive, Jasper." She said as she approached me. "You may be of great use to me."

She leaned in, as if she was going to kiss me. At the last second she struck; biting into my neck. The last thing I saw before I succumbed to the pain was Maria's smile. 

End flashback

"I woke up three days later in an old barn. From there, Maria introduced herself and her two sisters as Nettie (the blonde) and Lucy (the brunette). They explained to me what I was and about the war's that were going on in the south under the human's radar." I explained.

"What wars?" I asked, intrigued.

"In the south, even to this day, there are small armies of newly made vampires lead by a seasoned vampire. It all started when vampires began to realize that if a few vampires claimed a specific territory, or city, that they would be able to feed more often and not risk being discovered as opposed to many vampires feeding in that city. 

A vampire named Benito came up with the easiest way to accomplish this. He created a bunch of vampires and used them to fight his battles and protect his territory. You see, during the first year, the vampire is at its strongest, most vicious. It is because they still have their human blood in their tissues and after the first year, it starts to fade and they become like a regular vampire. After that first year, they would be destroyed and he would start again with a new batch of newborns. Benito won his territory and began expanding; others began to follow his example creating their own armies." He described. I could see it all in his eyes. He seemed to be reliving his memories of the armies.
