Transylvania
1995"I have returned,my lady" said the tall,big man in black leather jacket.
"Have you had him properly taken cared of?" she stood up,took the glass of "wine" and faced her right hand man.
"Yes,my lady" he bowed down.
"Good" she smiled victoriously.
"How about the child,my lady?" he asked.
"Arrange her disposal.Find a parent for her.They'd better be good. You know what that child is. What she will be to us.Make sure she can't be found out,at all cost" she waved her hand,signaling him to go.
"As you wish, my lady" and he's gone.
She breathe.Long and deep.
She just had her daughter Raven and Raven's love interest killed by Azuki,her right hand man.
It would have not gone as farq as sacrificing Raven but her daughter broke the Mergana's most sacred law.
Raven fell to their clan's enemy.Raven fell for Mauri's youngest son,Yuri.
Raven bore a child.
The first born half-breed from Ramata and the new breed,outcasts.
Mergana.
She resented having a grandchild with a blood coming from Mauri's kind.
But the child has with her the blood that would bring Samara back to life.Bring them to power...again.
Her grandchild was gifted with extraordinary power.Her blood.
It could have been easier for her to split the couple apart,had Raven heed her words.But her hard-headed daughter chose to defy her and ran away with him.She can't let that happen.So she had to order their execution just to make sure the child will be theirs.
But then,even if the child would be of so much use to them the moment she will reach the next lunar eclipse, she had no plan of raring her.Not when she's at the stage of orchestrating and strengthening her own future army.
Precautious as she was,she laid a divertion plan.
Ordering Azuki to find a couple to stand as parents to her grandchild.
To let the toddler grow in an environment her enemies would never thought she would be.That's an edge to them.
She could not take chances.
That baby was their ultimate hope for Samara and their chance to reign in power again.
"It's done,Samara.What an expensive sacrifice for your blood" she whispered as she went around the throne at the left corner of that room.
It was Samara's.
It was the highest respect they could give unto her.The throne she had been sitting...And will be sitting still until their waiting ends.
A tear fell down.
And she did not hold herself.Because it will be the last time she'd let a tear fall for Raven.
Being the key holder to Samara's body,she'd do everything to fulfill her duty.Guard it with her life.
Even if it means losing everyone she love.
Including Raven.
It was hard for her to be who she was.To be Samara's protector.But she was the oldest half-breed Mergana(witches breed) and half-breed Ramata(vampire breed) alive.At any circumstances,she's expected to be the first to safeguard Samara's body and to secure the continuity of their kind.
To do that,she must have to kill both Raven and Yuri and have their child.The first half-breed from Samara and Mauri's bloodline.
Mortal enemies who had passed on their roles,including each other's curse that would mean to determine the fate of humans on their hand.
