Bloody Rose

Roman

I was being forced out of the house. Mia and Asher interrupted my game. I didn't want to visit the old house because I knew I would see my father's spirit again and that would have screwed me up.

We pulled up to the house and Asher was the first one out of the car. He was quick, moving right into the house. Mia sighed, "sorry Ro. He's just in a terrible mood and he's determined so he's an ass." She shook her head.

I waved her off. "It's fine, I was only playing madden." I chuckled. She smiled and we headed inside. Asher was searching for the journals. I brought them back and hid them inside the chimney.

I walked over and felt around for the box. Once I retrieved it i pulled out out of the stone fireplace and sat it in the middle of the floor. Asher came over and dusted it off. He opened it and pulled out some books.

"Years ago, I had a fling with Roman's great grandmother. Her name was Georgina Grigorescu. She was beautiful and pure. Her father kept a close eye on me, I know that he knew what I was. All the Grigorescu's knew because of the many deaths Ashton and I caused. Georgina knew but she didn't know I was apart of the deaths. I was in love with her." He shook his head.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Her father told me I couldn't marry her, I could never give her children. He told me that I would find love with someone of my kind." Asher looked up at Mia, with love in his eyes. "But I can't give her children. Or I don't know. I want to." He was being so blunt.

Mia's face never changed however, she had the same look in her eyes but she didn't smile. "Maybe there's some kind of loophole here?" I said trying to keep the spirit in the room. "But how will we know what to read?"

"We'll call Zaria and Elijah to help. And Valeria is still here she can help too." Mia pulled out her iPhone and began dialing numbers. She stepped out of the room while Asher and I began reading.

I pulled out a burgundy book, it stood out from the others.

January 18th, 1698 ,

Vivian asked me could there be a possibility of her children reproducing. No technology made could prove that. I told her I would study and find out.

There was a possibility because their blood was mixed with witch. But I had no clue. She has asked my grandfather but they had no clue either-

"I think I've found the book." I say out loud as I keep reading.

The book jumps to a late 1800s. This is crazy, and it's the same Roman.

February 13th, 1870

I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. Vivian and I have been traveling the world, her keeping me alive to help her answer these questions of her children. We've visited the U.S. And an old witch there had created advanced technology and she tested the blood.

We have to wait a month for the results. Vivian seems extremely impatient and I'll admit that is a very long time to wait.

None of her children know what's going on, her twin son isn't home and hasn't been for a while. And her daughter Ashton is off the walls. That maybe why she wants the results.

She's help keep me alive for many years trying to solve this for her. I don't mind at all, Vivian is a beautiful woman. Her husband vanished back when her youngest daughter grew ill.

I decided take a break from reading. I went up to my old room and sat on the bed. There was a picture of me and my mom on the dresser. I wondered if she knew about my family's history.

"Son," I looked up to see my parents. My mom had her hair curly down her shoulders and she wore a black sweater with jeans and some Ugg Boots. My father wore a hoodie and jeans. They looked casual, but I knew they were still dead. "You're doing such a good job helping them." My father said. Mom nodded with a huge smile on her face.

"Honey I'm so proud of you. You're taking great care of Adrianna." She smiled. "You're becoming such a strong young man. And you've found a nice beautiful girl."

"She left me." I sighed.

"Nonsense, she will come back. She loves you Roman." Mom insisted. "You're a Grigorescu."

"What am I?" I asked them.

"I'm not sure, I was trying to find out before we died but I didn't get too far. But don't worry, I'll find out soon."

"How did you die?"

"Roman are you okay?" Mia entered the room fading where my parents were. I turned to see her with wide eyes.

"Yeah why do you ask?" I ask curiously.

"You're talking to yourself?" She says.

"My parents, they were standing right there." I point to where she walked in. "They were here."

"Uh okay? You've been up here for a while." She took a seat on my bed and stared at the floor. "Zaria and Elijah have been reading but haven't found anything so far." She seemed sad. I pulled out the diary I had.

"I think I may have found the right one."

March 18th, 1870

We have received the results and Vivian is quite happy. The children can indeed reproduce but the chances are low. However, since this is the first time someone has encountered vampire witches the chances could be higher than the witch thought-

I looked up at Mia. Her eyes were wide with anticipation. "Oh my god! Roman!" She pulled me into a tight hug, excited as ever.

Asher, Elijah, and Zaria came running into the room. "What's going on?" Asher asked with wide eyes. Mia handed him the book and pointed to the paragraph. His eyes grew wide as he read out loud.

"Don't get your hopes up brother, there's a low chance I wouldn't bet on any Anghelescu having any children." Elijah walked off.

"We have to find Ashton and tell her!" Mia said excitedly.

I wonder if we'd ever have children.
