The Vampire Princess

Chapter 1

        When the vampire council called someone to come before them, usually that person didn't deny them, well I did say usually but back to the point, most vampires are not Lucian Black, he never did follow the rest of us. Well I guess this is the point in the story where I introduce myself I am Brooklynn Black, Lucian's first child, but you will learn more about me later. This story is about my mother and father (not my human parents, my vampire parents) and how their love brought about a war like no one has ever seen and how their love solved it.

"Lucian, you can't continue to ignore the council's summons." Michael said glaring at his brother. Lucian looked at him and barred his fangs.

"The council can bite me, brother." Lucian got up and walked to the fridge. He opened the door and grabbed a bottle of the blood he kept there.

"You know they will come here and talk to you. Pretty sure you don't want that to happen. So why don't you just answer the summons?" Michael said, cringing as his brother drank the bottled blood down. "That shit is disgusting brother."

Lucian slammed the fridge door and glared at his brother, before either one could lunge at the other the doorbell went off with ominous music (Vampires have a sick sense of humor). Lucian broke eye contact and flashed to the front door. When he opened the door, he saw the 12 members of the vampire council standing on his doorstep.

"Lucian Black you have been summoned to come before this council and you have failed to comply."

"Yeah, Sorry about that, would you like to come in?"

All 12 members stood there until the voice of an angel come from behind them.

"Gentlemen, do we have to act so stuffy? Please relax"

The men moved aside and a girl who couldn't be more than 25 stepped forward. Lucian went to his knees the minute he saw her, and he bowed his head.

"Your highness, please come in our home is open to your beauty." Lucian clenched his fists. He had never said anything like that in his 2,000 years.

"Mr. Black please stand." Gabriella walked in with a younger girl following her.

"Abigale he is bowing to you as well, dismiss him like I have taught you."

"You may stand Mr. Black." Abby said

"Thank you, young princess." Lucian said.

When Lucian stood, he straightened to his full height of 6'2. Gabby stared at him. Her mind traveled to a place far away in a time long passed. Although Lucian Black was a Vampire unlike anyone, she had ever known, Gabby had to stick to the plan, and that was to get away from Sam, her betrothed.

"Lucian, do you know why we are here?" Dragonetti, the oldest of the council members spoke up, bringing Gabriella out of her daydream.

"No, Dragonetti your summons, as always were vague at best. So Maybe you would care to enlighten me?" Lucian kept staring at Gabriella, he was unable to look away.

Now at this point I must explain how our hearts and minds work when we are near our mates. You see when we are near our true mates, our brain shuts down and the monster side takes over, with the urge to protect their mate. the urge to bond with them is excruciating and the males can be volatile, especially when other males are around their mates.

"We are here Mr. Black, because of your eating habits." Gabriella spoke up.

"My name is Lucian or Luc Princess, please use it, and what about my eating habit? I have not hunted in nearly a thousand years."
