Prince Chandler, no female vampire is suitable for marrying you." Jesse says. "Frankly, I'm tired of vampires, give me a human. One that is interesting and beautiful." Chandler sighs. "Well, there was one girl that got mixed up with the vampires. Here, have a look." Jesse hands Chandler the profile of a girl from Tennessee very cautiously. "Hmm, Tempest Clarke. 17, her parents died when she was little, has black hair with white tips and bright sapphire eyes." "She is very interesting indeed. I like her. Bring her to me." Chandler smirks and looks at Jesse. "As you wish, Prince Chandler."'
