A few weeks have passed and everything seems mellow. Dominica and I have been together for over 4,000 years now. She has been loyal to me through thick and thin. She has always been adventurous, quick witted, and always had a strong heart. I told her everything when she was human, who and what I was, what I want to do for the world, and why I wanted her to be with me. Instead of running away, she stayed and listened with fascination. She wasn't afraid of me, nor was she disgusted of what I needed for nourishment. I fell in love at that moment. I turned her the night after. I gave her time to say goodbye to her family and friends because I told her that she would never see them again.

The next night, we shared our meal. A whole family with a father, mother, a little girl, and a small baby boy. 50 years later we did the same thing, and we do it as our anniversary. I have had to defend her for the first 100 years because she couldn't defend herself. I taught her how to fight. showed her where to strike for a critical hit, how to take out their hearts with ease. Now that Dominica's a hybrid, she will be 10x stronger than any vampire her age. A couple thousand years later and we became the most powerful couple in the world. We made homes, industries, and servants in Asia, Africa, and India. About a thousand years later, Egypt was our supplier for slaves. The Jews were hard workers for me, until this man named Moses was trying to set them free. I traveled to Egypt to confront him, but then I saw how corrupt Egypt was. They were forcing them to do inhuman work, never taking a break, whipping them and killing them. I was furious, but Dominica was not moved by it. She thought they were just slaves, but I told her that they are also people. So, I cast spells on Egypt, each one more worst than the last. I plagued them for 10 days, and on final day, I sent a spirit to kill the first born sons throughout egypt. After the 10th day, I saw Moses lead the slaves out of Egypt. And that was the last time I saw him.

Some time has passed and Dominica and I were about to celebrate our 2,000 year anniversary. Suddenly, we were stopped by a group of ancients, they were older than Dominica and I but I was not phased by them. "Are you Marcus?" one of them asked. "I am". "We have been summoned by your maker to address you as our rightful ruler and King of all the beasts that hunt in the night."

I was shocked by the words this man said. Then, the three men kneeled and bowed their heads. Not only was Dominica surprised that I was royalty, she was angry. 2,000 years of trust and honety, and she was pissed at me like I have been lying to her ever since I met her. I told them that it must be a mistake, but they said who my maker was and what he has always been. He was a king, and from what I heard, he was the best. Now that I have reached a certain age and maturity, he decided that he will give up his crown and give it to me. Dominica was still angry at me, but not as much since she heard the story. After a couple months, she finally started talking to me. Now that I'm king, I'm gonna need an army, a kingdom, and protecting the people. This will be a whole new life for us, and we are ready to face any challenge that comes our way.

1000 years later

Now that I have a small army of hybrids, and a kingdom to run, I am ready to expand my borders and become the most powerful Kingdom in the world. During my rein there was one kingdom that gave me the most trouble, the English king, King John.
