Inseparable

Chapter 1: The Night that Changed Everything

Falling in love with someone who's completely different from you in every possible way is extremely hard, but I guess it's worth it if you work for it and just let it happen. For me, it started when we met at a very young, but we never had the chance to speak to each other before. I was shocked to see that when I introduced myself, he didn't say a word to me. I thought that I did something wrong or that I scared him away from me. I never really had a conversation with him until a few days before I left my home for long and painful six years.

That's a long story; I'll have to talk about it some other time. When we were eight years old, he finally talked to me after knowing who I was all of my life and protecting me from whatever was happening around my home. I asked him where he came from since I never really had the chance to get to know him as a person and not as someone who just works and lives with my family. He spoke very well for someone who hardly ever spoke a word. I knew a few things about him because my grandparents told me stories about how they raised him. I always saw him around but he never smiled or laughed.

He just had a straight face, with a cold and serious stare. It was like he was a statue and I was just admiring him. My grandparents found him as an infant, took him in and raised him like their own. I always watched him whenever I had the chance. He was always around my grandparents; I guess it's because he knew them as his guardians. He always had something blue with him, so I think that was his favorite color.

Over the years, my mother never liked him. She couldn't understand why her parents (my grandparents) took him in when he was nothing like us. My mother hates him mainly because of his kind and his family. His family is demons in high society and my family is royal vampires. Our homes are planets far beyond the Earth. My grandparents ruled over our home planet and his parents ruled his planet.

For centuries, our kinds have been at war with one another. Which is interesting because before all of that happened, both of our races were strong and proud whenever they combined forces. We would each trade items and high technology with one another. If one planet was enduring battles or wars, the other planet helped and supported the other. The feuding started when the new generation of vampires and demons came along and started causing trouble between the races.

I guess you could say we were like Romeo and Juliet, except we didn't need to kill ourselves just so we could be together. Although we are not the first of our kinds to have a forbidden love. Our great, great-aunt and uncle were the first. My great, great aunt and his great, great uncle were the first demon and vampire couple ever in our history. She was a vampire of royal blood and he was a demon of noble blood. Their story is in our history books. They started to date each other in secret.

While they were together, she showed him how our kind lived and how our people acted around each other. With her knowing that, he went to his home planet to show the other demons what he learned, this was a major crime in his planet but he did not care. This act did not go without punishment. The boy's father killed his great, great uncle publicly because not only was this type of love was appalling to him and thought it should never happen again after this. It was also because he technically committed a crime in the demon world. So in order to get people to understand that he was serious about this crime, he used killing his uncle as a demonstration towards breaking this law.

When the news of his death reached my great, great aunt she was so angry and upset that she was never going to be the same again, she practically went on a killing spree. She managed to get everyone on our home planet to hate his father. For many years, this went on and no one on his planet knew this was going on until several people started to die in very strange ways.

Then one day when they found out why, they fought our planet back even though they did not want to. Eventually of course, once you spill a lot blood it is going to keep repeating until there's no more blood left to spill. During this time, that boy was born right in the middle of this epic battle. My great, great aunt died while in battle. Both of their bodies are buried together in a tower on my home planet, buried underground.
