Vlad & Maria are bisffuly enjoying married life with the family together. However, it doesn't mean that trouble won't leave them be. Eric is hell bent on breaking their marriage & slaying the count. Unfortunately, he has reinforcements aka Jano. How...
Boris failed coup brought more drama. We had to hold onto the crown as the clan was called for deciding the new Grand High Vampire. Within weeks, the crypt was packed with vampires. Robin was told to keep away which disappointed him. But, mum was strict about him avoiding the castle.
She would only allow me to visit his house which I enjoyed. The castle was creepy & gloomy with som many vampires around. Dad was enjoying hosting & showing off. His blood cellar was taking a small hit but most of them preferred to hunt. This attracted slayers so Mum grounded us from leaving at night. She quickly ordered fresh blood to prevent night hunts. But, I could tell they were getting restless.
Luckily, today was the ceremony. I couldn't wait to get the day over with. The sooner the castle was emptied again the better. We all got dressed in our best capes for the event. I got done quickly & waited in my room to be called down. Zoltan passed the time with me as we read newspapers.
"Grand High Vampire staked by Boris Dracula, whose coup attempt failed when he wore the crown of power & mysteriously turned to dust." I read the last paper headline
"Cousin Boris is all over the papers, Zoltan." I groaned
"Except for the Sun Block. Look the Lice Girls are getting back together." He tried to cheer me up. It would have worked if I didn't see the old GHV reflection in the thunder.
"What was that?!" I worried as I stared hard outside my window
"I thought I saw something." I explained as I sprang to the window for a better look
"Yes, it's called lightning Master Vlad." He dismissed
"Vladimir Dracula." The GHV called out, causing me to stumble against my dresser
"And that's called thunder." He continued, oblivious to the ghost in the middle of the room
"You are the chosen one. You must take your rightful place on the throne!" The GHV ordered
"I'm sorry your grandness but I really think there's been a mistake. I have trouble getting my homework in on time." I denied
"Hush! The time is nearly upon us. You will know you are the chosen one when." He roared
"When what?" I asked just as he vanished

"Oh, come on Vladdy. We haven't got all night." Dad urged me as he finished tying his cape. Mum bent over to check me but noticed my flushed face.
"The heads of the vampire clans are gathering downstairs. The ceremony is about to begin ah." Dad finished
He flew back to the throne room so mum had to follow. But, she sent me that we're talking later glare before leaving. That was one conversation I wouldn't try to avoid.
