Chapter 1-
Sorin Dalca’s POV 16 years ago-
I sat in the crown room aimlessly watching the dust particles float around. Today had been a slow day and I had allowed my queen to oversee the annual hunting competition so the castle was considerably less quiet without her incessant talking. The dust particles moved suddenly and I was forced to look at the person who had disturbed the one peaceful day I that I have had in centuries. Realising my glare, the person who I recognised as my seer started to cower.
“What is it seer, that is so important that you would disturb my rest?” I spat out at her lisping around the fangs that had been embedded into my jaw for around 14 millennia,
“I have seen something very disturbing my king, something that will end your rule, existence and species in one action” My seer said fearfully,
“And what could be so powerful that it would be able to wipe out an entire race with me as its leader?” I said while trying to think of what she would say next,
“The Strix princess in sixteen years will come of age to access her powers and will find out about the prophecy she is destined to fulfil, the prophecy I saw” she exclaimed,
“And to what does this prophecy foretell?” I asked a plan already forming in my head.
“The prophecy says that she who is born of royal blood and can control the elements will one day have the power to defeat the race that they fight against to protect the humans by killing the leader of the vampires he and all of his followers will die with their leader to ensure that there will never again be a vampire ruling” I smiled,
“My dear there is a simple solution to this. The child is but a month old so easy to kill and I shall do it myself. Oh the irony of it all I shall kill the only one who is destined to kill me by drinking every last drop of blood from the Strixes body and all will be well again” I continued to smile once more,
“But my king the Strix race has already seen the prophecy and have sent their princess into hiding with a witch that blocks my vision each time I look for her the only people who know her where about are the King and Queen themselves” I frowned and suddenly I was very thirsty I needed to take my anger out on somebody, the next thing I knew I was sinking my teeth into my seers throat and tasting her succulent blood on my lips draining the life from her as she struggled helplessly. When I was finished I had somebody dispose of her body and resumed my position on my throne thinking.
Let the Strix come to me when she is ready and I will kill her, the first chance I get, that is my only option.
