Once upon of time in the country named Romania, there were two different kinds of Race the humans and the Vamparians but the humans refuse to coexist with vampires and would cause an uproar when vampires only source was humans' blood, so the humans took it into their own hands to vanish the whole entire vampire race but that didn’t stop king Dracula Vald Tepes himself and his beautiful wife from receiving a baby girl with her skin as pale as snow, her hair as night and her eyes as the color of blood. The Queen believe that her child could possibly break the barrier between humans and vampires one day, Bellona Tepes is what they called her. Named her after a roman war goddess. The queen is always planned on coming together with humans she's very fond of them. When Bellona was five the parents would try everything to keep them hiding from humans to getting to them and still try to convince humans to coexist with one another however it didn’t budge not even one bit they found Dracula's hideout and set it on fire to force him out to kill him. The mother made Dracula leave with Bellona as she is caught in fire, the only way for her to get out is out the front door with the hostile humans.

“Take Bellona and the rest of the Vamparians and run as far from here,” said the queen to the king as she turned her back on him, but Dracula didn’t want to lose his wife. He screams out her name on top of his lungs as he was completely ignored when she went out the door anyway then heard her screams out the door that only gave the confirmation to the king that she was dead. He left with his daughter and the Vamparians to a faraway land. Soon the humans and Vamparians came to an agreement that instead of human's blood they would substitute with pigs' blood although that didn’t stop the humans from clashing with Vamparians. As Bellona grew older Dracula remarried to a woman, Theilia, with two daughters, Maryjane and Rosalie, both whose nothing but a vixen towards Bellona. The king, Dracula, was still in despair of his late wife which he buried himself in own work. This gave Theilia an opportunity to force Bellona in her will to do as she says even to the age of eighteen Bellona was ready for marriage. 

"Bellona you missed a spot don't forget to clean it!" shout Theilia stomping on Bellona hand on the ground as she groans. Bellona looks up and ask, "Why must you do this to me?" With such sadness in her voice. "Both of my daughters are ready for age of marriage... But you are also ready for age and I won't let you ruin this once in a life time for my daughters. " Theilia answered with full of hate from under her breath. Suddenly they were footsteps of no other than Bellona cousin Darius. Bellona quickly got off the floor patting her dress and wiping the dirt off her face as everyone kept their lady like position. "Bellona may I have a word with you. Alone." Cousin Darius requested with puzzled face when he looked around at the scene. "Of course, cousin Darius" Bellona answer his request then bows her head and took his hand as he led her to a private room. "Uncle seems to be busy these days since the humans are talking about cutting off our supplies.. " cousin Darius began with his hands on his hips looking overwhelmed with the conflict.

"What? They can't do that it's our agreement to being close for peace!" Bellona responds in shock. Bellona couldn't believe her ears, but she still believes her mother's dreams of becoming one with humans. "Exactly Bellona and uncle is going to need more help to take down the human race.. In order to have an alliance with other royal Vamparians to demolish the humans is to marry you to the other kingdoms Prince.  We will be having a ball place here tomorrow night and you shall choose who would take your hand in marriage. " said Darius explain their decision without her say. Bellona Shook her head in displeasure to what came out of cousin Darius mouth. “I will not” she refuses so confidently and balling up her fist in rage regardless of she has to say doesn’t matter to Darius. “you should be ashamed of yourself Bellona, this is for your Vamparians and our existence, without more power we'll be wiped out by the humans!" Darius shout on the top of his lungs as Bellona sense danger her way. "I apologize. I was way out of line and I will save our Vamparians." Bellona bow her head and curtsy at the same time Cousin Darius left. Meanwhile on the Land of the humans Prince Gabriel Van helsing Jr. was running away from such great fear until he bumps into his best friend Adrian causing Gabriel to lose his balance however Adrian caught him in the nick of time with a smile. "What are you running in the castle for?" Adrian ask with a chuckle after dusting off his suit and gold metals. "My fiancé quick hide me!" Gabriel shout with panic and Adrian push Gabriel In his room and shutting the door quickly. Adrian picked up his book and pretended that he just walked out his room reading as the fiancé walk pass him. After when the coast is clear Adrian gave a secret knock on the door they came up with as kids. Gabriel open the door and walk out in sigh of relief. "Why oh why did the Prince run away from his future bride?" Adrian ask full of curiosity while tapping his book with a smirk rising in the corner of his mouth.
