Immortal Curse

All the chapters in one update

I

walked down the lonely passage of the mansion. I never really thought I would have a life like this or be alive in the first place, but that's life or rather death. You see death and I have been scandalously intimate for some time now.

After so many years it never got old.

Like every story there needs to be an introduction so here it is, My Rose Gold, I am a night walker, a creature of the night, in other words a vampire but don't let looks fool you because in your eyes I might be eighteen maybe nineteen but I am much older than that. Like all ancient vampires I have gifts like the control of elements and since I am a vampire I have the standard compulsion, super speed and strength, let's not forget the enhanced Senses.

However I do not sparkle in the sun, that is utter nonsense. We burn in the sun and thanks to the vampire diaries, we now have day light rings. I'll give them credit for it.

I'm British and since I died in that accent I'm stuck with it but I'm not complaining. I love my accent. In fact most of my coven have the same accent. But I can change it to whatever I so choose.

My coven is a big one consisting of one hundred and fifty vampires. You'd think it's small but it's the largest coven. Vampire don't stay in covens for long and they either die off or stay alone.

My coven and I are very close. I saved them each from dying and turned them into vampires, giving them a chance to live. I never told them to stay. They did that themselves. I didn't make them give me anything in return. They are like family and I'm grateful for that.

Moving on I've decided hat it would be good for them to brush up their people skills. Yes we drink human blood except from blood bags. Good thing we own a blood donating company so that's not a problem.

"Wake up!!!!" I yelled. The sound of thuds on the floor followed by groans filled my supernatural ears. It was time to get dressed. I was never one for being adorned with riches and the more expensive fabrics but over time... I guess things can change.

Yes I did keep up with style. I put a song on and listened to inside out by the Chainsmokers. I truly love this song.

I walked briskly outside to see my selected four awaiting my arrival. Lisa, Austin who were together, Beloveds along with Emily and Alex who beloveds as well. I still didn't meet mine and although I once had hope for this, time can truly be harsh. I guess after a long time, I only felt foolish and I gave up. Maybe he had passed away years ago, maybe he was somewhere with another indulging in the pleasure I could never fully experience.

"It's early." Lisa groaned while rubbing her eyes as Austin held her close. They all nodded in agreement. I gave them the 'do you really want to start' look and it worked immediately as they were quick to shut up.

We got in our cars and drove to school in our Lamborghini and BMW. We all had our separate cars.

We drove in the parking lot and as expected all eyes were on us. They stared at us up and down. Judgmental buggers the we're yet For some odd reason I felt giddy inside. Like something big was going to happen but what?

We walked in and everyone cleared the way for us. I simply held my head high and walked to the office. It was almost routine. Guys would flirt with men while I would turn away. It was all the works.

Walking to class, it was so mundane but something felt off. Something told me to keep going. Like a little voice in your mind giving you advice but that's when I bumped into him...

Chapter 2

...

Him

My beloved. He wore big, baggy hoodie and was bruised and battered. It broke my heart even though I didn't know him. How could I feel this way for someone who I had just laid my eyes upon?

"Oh god, are you okay." I gasped and inquired. The look of surprise washed over his face.

He didn't answer. Simply stared...

I took his hand an dragged him to the nurses office, the smell of disinfectant guiding me along the ghost hallway. He flinched back when I touch him. As much as I wanted to heal him, I couldn't. He was human, mundane but hopefully would accept me when the time came.

He was hurt and I was going to make the people who had brought pain upon beg for mercy. I was going to enforce my very own dark purpose upon them.

He sat there quite...

He found solitude in it...

It was comfortable silence that was riddled with questions.

"Are you okay?" I asked finally as I scraped up all the courage I could muster up.

"Why did you help me?" He asked completely ignoring my own inquiries.

"Why wouldn't I." I asked confusedly. I mean it was comment decency to help those who are hurt, wasn't it? It was a strange question.

"Because I'm a nerd and I'll ruin your reputation." I titled my head to look at him. Nerd, wasn't that a compliment. To be recognized for your intelligence and hard work towards intellectual greatness but did he really look at me like that... Like I was a popular wannabe.

"I don't care about reputations. I don't like people who do. I think you should treat people the way you want to be treated." My accent thick as I spoke to him. My heart was beating faster then the speed of light if that was possible.

"Your British... Are You new?" He asked.

I smiled warmly. "Yes." I answered him.

"God she is beautiful." He said, his voice in a gentle like whisper. I think it was meant to be in his head and he said it out loud. I blushed scarlet

"Thank you." I hid my face.

"I said that out loud didn't I ?" He blushed.

"Yea."I smiled at him. "This is embarrassing but what's your name." He asked.

"It's not embarrassing for you nor I and my name is Rose. Yours?" I asked.

"My name is River."

River... His name sent chills down my spine.

"Rose?" He asked. He did something I would have not guessed...

...

Chapter 3

...

He held my arm. I looked up at him with curiosity. He looked at me and blushed. He let go of my hand.

"Thank you." He said shyly.

"Your welcome." I smiled and with a nod I continued.

"What do you have now? Subject I mean..." I asked with a warm smile.

"Math." River gave a curious stared.

"I have maths too, But I don't know where it is. Do you mind showing me, if it's not too much a burden." I asked, blood rushed to my cheeks as I spoke.

"Come on." He awoke from his seat and motioned me onwards, I guess that was my answer.

We walked beside each other and spoke quietly in murmurs. Turns out we had the same subjects. Advanced everything. He was cute, nice and smart what more could you want?

We went to a class and the teacher looked at us in questionable stare.

"Hi I'm Rose. I'm sorry for being late. I got lost and river help me out and showed me around." I said nicely.

"Okay don't let happen again. Go sit in the available seats." The teacher Mr Johnson said, and without another word he continued with his lesson not really worrying about much else.

We walked to the back of the classroom since that was the only place there were seats available. I sat beside River. I smiled at him in reassurance and took out my books.

I looked at River who seemed pretty focused but I noticed him watching me watching him. Such an adoration I had for him already, to be honest I truly scared me. It was incoherent.

I would turn to meet his gaze but for the first time since I had been born of darkness I felt shy, okay maybe not shy just really nervous. If that makes sense.

Class went by fast. I awoke at the same time as River had. I smiled at him. He smiled back but was confused. I saw fear behind his beautiful irises. A fear I wished to eradicate.

"What's wrong?" I asked in concern.

"Nothing." He said too quickly for it to be the truth.

It was Lunch and since I was a loner which was normal for vampires. I decided to walk to the library. I saw a couple student and by couple I mean two.

River and another guy talking. The guy saw me then spoke to River. I used my vamp hearing listening to their conversation. It might be rude but It seems curiosity got the better of me.

"Isn't that her? I've has to be since I've never seen her before?" The guy asked as he quickly glanced at me. River turned then looked away.

"Yes, she helped me and actually has a heart." I chuckled a bit. Oh if you only knew. My heart stop beating along time ago.

"She's so hot." Interesting friend.

"Dibs." River retorted quickly.

"Why we both know you won't make a move." I chuckled. River was about to say something when I got in hearing distance.

He smiled at me making my heart want to melt, if it was beating anyway. I saw the other guy checking me out. It made me feel uncomfortable but then I saw River doing the same thing.

I blushed and smiled.

"Hello again." I said.

"Hey." River said. The other guy stepped in front of River.

"Well hello there. I think I just died and went to heaven." More like hell. I laughed inwardly.

I looked at him weirdly. River inhaled deeply. "Sorry This is Cody." He shook his head.

"It's okay. I'm Rose." I smiled at Cody and raised my hand to shake his hand. Instead he grabbed it and kissed it. I pulled it out of his tight grip and whipped it.

"Just as beautiful." Cody said.

"Yea. I can be the Rose And you can be the thorn." River tried to contain his laughter but couldn't. Cody glared at River.

"Nice try." River said.

"Anyway what are you doing here?" Cody asked.

"Well I'm normally at the library reading and I'm a loner." I shrugged.

"You read?"

"Your a loner?"

They asked at the same time.

"Yea I love to read and I just like being alone sometimes." I shrugged. I looked up and saw River staring at me in awe when I said read.

I looked at the desk and saw a book about the history of immortals. It interested me that he took an interest in immortals.

"You believe in vampires?" I asked curiously.

"Yea. Just because you haven't seen something doesn't make it any less real." River shrugged.

I smiled at him.

Ring ring

The bell rang. Time really does fly...

"We should go." I said to River.

"Yeah." He said in agreement. We walked beside each other towards life orientation. I hated this class with a passion. I mean I would totally burn the classroom if I remember. I should get someone to do it though.

We were stop by on of the jocks of the school. I looked at him questionably.

...

Chapter 4

...

We were stopped by one of the jocks. He ignored River and came to me. I saw the fear beheld in Rivers eyes.

He must of been the one who did hurt him. I will take care of that in a civil way, and by civil I mean I'm going to drain him of ever ounce of blood in his body.

"Hello there babe. How about we ditch and go have a little fun." What's his face said. I mean he didn't even ask me my name. He such an f-boy.

"How about..." I acted like I was thinking. "...no" I said firmly. He looked at me in disbelief.

"Do you know who I am?" He asked.

"No. Nor do I want to." I mocked with would be a bright grin.

"I'm Ethan West. School quarter back. I'll give another chance." He said smirked.

"Hmm, let me think again. How about in your dreams at a quarter to never." I put a firm hand on his chest and pushed him back.

"Look here..." He grabbed my wrist.

My guys came and tapped his shoulder. There was about ten of them and they were big and all looked pretty badass.

I smirked. They were like my brothers and acted that way to. They were very overprotective.

Damian, Alex, Tim, Toby, Isaac, Holden, Zac, Jess, Ryan, Ben.

"Let go of our sister before I make you wish you were never born." Damian said.

Ethan let go and backed up immediately. I smiled at them and they left for class. River looked at me.

"You just said no to the most popular guy in school, and scared the crap out of him." He said shaking head in disbelief.

"Oh well." I shrugged.

He chuckled and we continued our journey to class. Everyone watched us as if we were from one of those TV shows.

I walked a little closer to River but he didn't notice. What? He's my beloved and I'm going to get close to him either way.

Class went by smoothly until.

"River Fyers and Rose Gold."

I was going to stop there but I love you guys so no

I looked up. We were partners in our project? The project was about relationships. We had to find out things about each other and write about each other.

This just worked in my favor. I turned to look at him and smiled.

"I guess we are partners." I smiled at him which he returned. At least he's warming up to me.

"Do you wanna do it at my house or yours." I asked.

"Yours if you don't mind." He asked.

"We can do it there. Do you wanna go after school?"

"Sure."

"We can go in my car." I asked and he nodded.

.

.

The rest of the school day went by and even if we tried to speak we would always get interrupted.

I walked to my car and waited for River. He walked by and saw the car and his eyes widened.

...

Chapter 5

...



"Rose I have to go. I have to get my baby sister from a friends house." He explained and gave me a small smile that leaked worry.

"Oh okay, I'll give you a ride." I said to him. While he got his things I took out my black Range Rover from the garage. I started the car and waited.

River walked out side with his backpack and got into the car.

"We can pick your sister up and go to your house one time." I suggested.

"If you don't mind." He said quietly.

"Of course I don't." I smiled and he returned. I felt myself getting closer to him, it was strange feeling. It somehow made me feel human if that was remotely possible. It warmed my beating heart. Well not so much beating.

I never thought in all my my hundreds of years that I would go soft. It still shocked me. I gave up on the thoughts of having a beloved and being happy in that way but I guess I learnt that you shouldn't give up so easily.

We drove to a suburban area. He gave me directions. We spoke about random things and he told me his sister was six and very hyper. Her name was Andrea.

We parked outside a house that was a magazine like, with a white picket fence and as River stepped out the car and walked out to the door, I got of the car and leaned against the car and looked around.

The place looked very family friendly and reminded me of those houses you see in movies with kids running around the yard.

I saw River talking to a middle age lady who looked oddly suspicious. I turned before she could see my face. A little girl came out of the house and hugged River.

I smiled at the scene in front of me. They walked to the car and when the little girl saw me her eyes lit up. River smiled at her.

"Hi I'm Andrea." She was absolutely adorable. There was no one who could deny it.

"Hi I'm Rose. River told me about you but he didn't mention you were so beautiful."

She blushed. "Your beautiful to. And your really nice."

"Thank you." I smiled at her.

"You can drive to your house then we'll switch. If you don't mind."

"I don't . But are you sure you don't mind me driving your car." I frowned.

"River it's just a car. I don't mind." I said.

"Come on sweetie." I opened the back seat door and picked her up to put her in. She was small and needed help. She giggled.

I got in the passenger seat and he got in the driver's. He started the car and I must say he was a good diver. I spoke to Andrea. She told me about herself.

We got to a house that looked like the rest. I got out and I heard crashes. I took Rivers phone to use as an excuse so I could come back.

He heard crashing too and his eyes widened in fear.

"Thank you for the ride. You should go." He quickly said.

"Okay. Bye." I smiled to him and Andrea. I got in and drove off and then turn around after a couple minutes to give him his phone. I walked to the door and I heard Andrea scream.

I opened the door and saw Andrea on the floor and River against the wall but some guy with a knife. I quickly tore him of River and threw him against the wall with an ungodly strength. My canines elongated into sharp weapons of mass murder. I could feel my face transform into my hideous true self, into the monstrosity that was I.

I threw the guy on the table and watched as the force shatter it. I ran to Andrea to make sure she was okay. She had a bruise on her face and she was crying, the tears didn't show signs of ending anytime soon. I picked her up and she clung onto me for dear life.

I ran to the car and put her there.

"Stay here I'll be right back." She nodded vigorously.

I ran back to the house. River was on the floor, his unconscious state only sent panic through me. I ran to him.

"River!" He was bleeding. I put his one arm around my shoulder and picked him up. I put him in the car and drove back to my house.

"Is he okay." Andrea asked in sniffle after her tears had stopped.

"He will be sweetie." I assured her.

"Thank you." She said quietly.

"Are you okay?" I asked. She nodded.

We got to the gate and her eyes widened when she saw the house. I smiled at her.

I called Lucy and she rushed to my side. I asked her to get hot chocolate and things for Andrea.

I put River on the bed and put a moist cloth on his forehead. I bit into my finger and let the blood drip into his mouth, And then starts the waiting game.

.

.

It's been day five hours. I put Andrea to sleep yesterday and she was still asleep I had fed her some of my blood just to make sure she was okay. Now all I could do was wait, I started playing the piano. Schindler's list, one of my favorite songs.

(She wore the outfit)

I was in the middle of it when I sensed his presence. I continued to playing. I closed my eyes. Relishing in the sound of the music. I put my soul in it. Well whatever was left of it.

When I was finished. I opened my eyes and saw River looking at me in awe.

"What are you?" I looked at him. Something told me he already knew.

"I think you know." I said.

"Are you... Are you a vampire."

"Yes."

"How. You tell me. You've read about it." I answered before he could ask.

"I have but how old are you." I chuckled.

"You don't ask a lady her age."

"I'm curious."

"Curiosity killed the cat." I inhaled deeply.

"You're taking this better than I thought." I looked at him then stood. I walked to the balcony and leaned against the railing.

"I've always been fascinated with vampires I guess." He blushed.

"I'm a couple hundred years old."

"Wow that's old." I raised an eyebrow.

"No offense." he quickly added.

"Non taken. I know you want to ask questions. Go ahead."

"Have you found your beloved." He asked. I stilled. How the bloody hell did he know so much?

"I have." He stilled and looked away.

"Although he is oblivious to it." I added I walked towards him.

"How?" He asked. Making eye contact.

"You tell me?" He looked at me confused.

"What?"

"You River. You are my beloved......."

Chapter six

...



"You River... You're my beloved." I told him.

"How?" He looked at me. I stepped closer and I registered this heart rate picked up, the sound... so fast you could dance to the beat.

"I don't know. I gave up looking a long time ago, then I met you."

"Are you going to reject the bond?" He asked quietly. My head snapped to his.

"How could you ask me that. Of course I wouldn't. You are my beloved and I would never." I said in a rage, vampires only have one, you don't get a second chance.

"But I'm Human." He looked away as if that was reason enough, I would've accept him if he was a werewolf.

"River look at me." He didn't.

I held his face in my hands and brought gaze to mine. I caressed his face gently.

"I don't care if you are human or even a werewolf. You are my beloved and nothing would ever make me reject you. Nothing." I whispered the last part. He smiled at me and moved his hands to my waist.

I smiled and brought my lips to his. He didn't hesitate to kiss me back. Our lips moved in sync. He held me tighter.

He move his head to get more access. He deepened it and did wonders. Like a magician at his natural element.

I pulled back as His need to breathe overcame him.

"Your mine." I whispered.

And smiled and kissed me again but pulled back before he could deepened it.

"And your mine. Forever." His lips found mine and if I died I would die happy.

To bad I'm already dead. We heard giggling. I pulled back to see Andrea by the door. I smiled at her. She ran and jumped into my arms. I picked her up and she clung to me.

"I knew it." She exclaimed.

River laughed and held my waist. And he kissed Andrea forehead. She giggled.

"You'll be stay here. Both of you. I don't want you going back there. I'll get you anything you need."

"Rose..." he argued.

"I insist. There's no way I'm letting you go back. End of discussion. Whose hungry." I walked with Andrea in my arms and walked to the kitchen where Lucy was cooking.

(Lucy above.)

"This is your home now so feel free to explore." I told Andrea. Her eyes lit up.

"Really." I nodded. River held my free hand.

I put her down and she ran towards Lucy. I looked at River and he looked deep in thought. I put my one hand on his chest and looked at him.

"Thank you." He said.

"What for?"

"Everything. Ever since my mother left my father's not been the same and yesterday he could've done something to Andrea if you weren't there."

"River. You don't need to thank me. And to be honest you would've been stay here either way. Vampires are very possessive over there beloveds." I winked at him.

He laughed at me and then placed his hand on my waist and brought me closer. He kissed me and held me tight. The kiss was sweet and gentle. He pulled back.

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

"I thought you would never ask. Yes." I kissed him.

"ROSE!!!" I heard someone yell.

I turned around to see Emily and Lisa. River kept his hand on my waist protectively. They squealed when they saw River.

"Is he???" They asked with hope in their eyes. I nodded and they rush to me and River. They called their beloveds as well. The guy looked at me with wide eyes.

"He's human." Lisa said.

"So?" I asked. She shrugged.

"Why are you guys here?" I asked.

"We heard you found your beloved." Emily said.

"You guys need to go back to the coven house. You are in charge when I'm not there remember." They nodded.

River looked at me confused.

"I'm the coven Master." I explained.

"But we totally need a girls day."

"When I'm dead." I mumbled. Lisa's head snapped towards me.

"Good thing you already are." She smirked. I growled at her and was ready to lung at her. She used her vamp speed and went away. I huffed.

River just laughed.

"Oh bite me." I said.

"That's your job."

"Funny. Very funny." Andrea came in.

"You have a beach in the back yard." She squealed.

"I do. Do you wanna go swimming." She nodded vigorously.

.

.

We finished eat and got changed. All of us. I already had guys clothes for emergencies and guest and I also had clothes for Andrea. I ordered clothes for her.

They came immediately actually in half an hour and I Also got Lucy to get the room ready for her. And showed her around.



I helped Andrea change and we meet with a very sexy River. My blood had healed ask the bruises. He was facing the other way. I cleared my throat and he turned around and his eyes widened.

We walked over to him and kissed his cheek and picked Andrea up and ran towards the water. She burst out in giggles. Her laugh was contagious.

We spent all afternoon playing in the water. After a while we got out River's and Andrea's tiredness got the better of them and so we went to bed. River and I were sharing a bed.

"Tell me more about yourself." I said.

"Later babe. Sleep." He said sleepily. He slung his arm around my waist and pull me against his bare chest. I must admit he was hot.

I lean into him and fell into blissful slumber of darkness and memory.



Just to make something clear, this is fiction, also if they kiss after knowing each other for like two days who are we to stop them. I haven't had my first kiss and I'm 17... let me live through them!

...

Chapter Seven

...



I awoke from my blissful darkness a new creature of the world. I had a new purpose, a new will.

I tried to move but I was being anchored to the bed. I turned to see River sleeping peacefully with his arm and leg over mine.

I caressed his cheek then kissed his nose, then his eyes. He looked so innocent, so young and child like.

He his eyes fluttered open and looked at me. He smiled lazily and held me closer. We heard giggling. I turned my head towards the door to see a giggling Andrea.

She watched us very amusingly.

"We have school." She said. Lucy came and got her.

"She's right, we do have school." I reminded him with a nudge as he was about to doze off into another peaceful slumber.

"I know." He sighed softly and intertwined our hands as if it was such a heavy burden, oh school.

While he went into the shower I went over to the mini fridge under the chair and took out a blood bag. I didn't really need to drink but I had become all to accustomed to it and I like all other vampires, do love the metallic, rich, savoury taste of blood. It was our liquid life.

I finished my meal just before he could come out of the washroom and as he came out I went in.

(Outfit on top)

It felt soothing, the hot water cascading down in glittering pearls, magnificent jewels. Reality came crashing all to soon, I walked to the dinning room where they awaited my arrival. Andrea sat, thoroughly enjoying her meal while River had not touched his food. He looked up and smiled when he saw me.

"Is it not to your liking?" I inquired.

"I was waiting for you." He answered and smiled reassuringly.

"You should eat. By the way Lucy will pick Andrea up from school if you don't mind." I asked.

"No. Do you want to go to school now." He asked.

"After you eat." I commanded playfully.

He chuckled and started to eat his breakfast. Andrea finished her food a lot faster than all of us anticipated.

She looked us and ran to me smiling. I picked her up and placed her on my lap. I kissed her cheek and gave her some strawberries from my bowl. Her absolute delight was quite amusing to say the least.

"Rose why aren't you eating." Andrea asked while stuffing her face with food.

"Because I already did sweetie. I have to something special for my Heath so I don't get sick." I told her.

River looked at me confused. Then it seems to have clicked to him. Oh my River...

It was surprising how fast the bond was forming. When a beloved is found the bond immediately appears.

When you kiss it so intense you can feel what they feel. Any emotion. You feel the need to be near and to have your beloveds touch.

That's how I felt I felt like I needed River. It was a new feeling for me to have but I felt it alright.

Dropping off Andrea was first on today's to do list, then off to school.

"Tell me about yourself." I asked.

"What do you wanna know?"

"Anything, Everything."

"Well my mother left four years ago. I like D.C more than Marvel. My favorite food is chicken. basically anything chicken. I don't know what I want to become in the future. I've always been fascinated with vampires all my life." he paused. I looked at him and smirked.

"I've always wanted to become one. I love to read and cook. my favorite book is 'you feel so alone sometimes it just makes senses' by Charles Bukowsi and I love music. anything good anyway." he said.

"Now tell me about yourself." He playfully demanded.

"Well what do you want to know?" I asked.

"Everything." He smiled at me.

"Well my parents died couple hundred years ago. I had a younger sister before she abandoned me. I like both marvel and DC. My favorite food is ice cream and before you say it's not a food. You can eat it which classifieds it as a food." He chuckled.

"I have every degree in medicine and business. I can speak dozens of languages. I don't have a favorite book because I simply can't choose. I love Halsey's music and I also love Tim Burton movies and I'm one of the very few ancients." I said focusing on the road.

"I have to ask you something." I stated. He looked at me and nodded.

"I'm hosting a ball in a few days. I would like if you accompanied me. If you want that is." I asked.

"But I'm Human. Would they want me there."

"Love I'm one of the most strongest vampires in the world. No one can say anything to you. You are my beloved and I wouldn't have it any other way, not only that but there are many vampires with human beloveds, we were human before we married death." I took his hand and squeezed it gently but reassuringly.

Let the day begin.

...

Chapter Eight

...



We parked in the parking lot and got out. They gawked at us as we stepped out of the car and when they had finally realized that beside me was River, their jaws dropped. We walked casually, hand in hand while with my free hand I straightened out my jersey. I had worn a grey halter neck crop top and a black high waisted jeans accompanied by black heeled boots that looked like Oxfords.

"You ready?" I whispered.

"Yes." He said nervously yet he had a glint of confidence in him.

"Hey, you'll be fine. I'm with you every step of the way." I reassured him and gave his had a squeeze.

"Thank you, I'm really happy I have you?" He said with sincerity in his voice.

"You have no idea how glad I an to have you, my beloved." I smiled and brought his hand to which I kissed his knuckles.

"I thank ask my lucky stars that I have you, I only wish that this isn't a dream." He whispered.

"It isn't, you can't get ride of me that easily." I told him and cupped his face and kissed him. We heard a series gasps and whispering causing us to pull apart from one another.

Students now stood staring at us like we were a show, they eyed us as if we had done something wrong.

"Staring is rude." I glared and just in time the other coven members arrived.

"My fists are itching for a brawl." One of then growled and brought up his hands and held them into fists. People quickly averted their gaze.

"Thank you boys." I thanked while River straightened his glasses.

"You are most welcome My Lady, My Lord." They said and left us be.

"Why did they call me 'My Lord' ?" River asked me.

"Our titles, the vampire community respects ranking as such as most of us are from that era. Our ranking starts with how old you are. My Lady, or Lord is the highest along with Mistress and Master." I explained.

"Woah..."

"What do you usually do in the morning?" I inquired, trying to get of the vampire topic.

"I go to the library. We can go somewhere else if you want." He said quick to please.

"I love the library." I said reassuringly.

We walked into the library and saw Cody, his shaggy hair was now brushed back with his hands. He didn't look at us as we approached him. When he looked up his eyes widened dramatically.

"What did I miss." He asked eyeing the both of us. And coincidentally the place was more lively. Although the people weren't very discreet in their eavesdropping.

"Well River and I are together." I informed him. River smiled and nodded.

"When?" Cody asked.

"A day ago." River said holding me hand and the my waist closer.

"You didn't come to school and then you get a girl friend, So that's what you were up to. I'm impressed but how did you." He pointed to River.

"Get her?" He pointed to me.

"I don't know. I really don't know." He chuckled.

"Hey I think he is very sweet, handsome, smart and just amazing not forgetting mine." I whispered the last part in his ear.

"Just like I'm yours you are mine. forever." He said in return.

He kissed me and I kissed back immediately. He was about to deepen it when Cody interrupted us with a loud cough.

The first bell went and still everybody gawked and stared. It was most disturbing. But at lunch I finally had enough. I was ready to leave.

.

.

I Skipped the rest of school. River just laughed at me when I told him I would die if I spent another minute in school. I left the car for him so he could get home.

I went to the coven house and saw Lisa and Emily.

"What are you doing here. Your supposed to be in school." I questioned.

"We have news." Lisa said excitedly.

Lisa was daughter of a Duke. He had arranged a marriage for her with a abusive man three times her age. She was only thirteen at the time. He had already started the abuse.

I then stepped in. I took her with me. She was more than happy to leave that family. But she was young. I didn't want to turn her. I wanted her to have a normal life. But things don't go according to plan.

On her birthday I held a ball. The man she was supposed to marry snuck in. He got her before I could and she died. And I turned her to save her life.

Emily was different. I didn't know her. I was walking through the streets of new Orleans in 1287. I had heard something in any Ally.

I found her beaten and on the brink of death. I turned her and found the person responsible. To say I killed him was understatement. I made him beg for the light but I didn't just kill him I relished in his screams.

Call me evil but I don't take well someone being beaten to a point where he or she was on the brink of death, wouldn't you want Revenge.

But coming back to the girls in front of me.

"Whats the news?" I asked.

"We're pregnant." They squealed. Yes vampires can have children. There not as strong thought. You can only have children with your beloved.

"I'm so happy." I hugged them.

"How far along?" I asked, the happiness clear in my voice.

"Three weeks for Emily and four for me." Lisa said.

"I'm happy for you." I spoke whole hearted. They smiled and hugged me.

"Soon it will be you." I blushed.

"Come on we need to pick dresses for the ball."

And just like that I got stuck with two hormonal female bossing me around.

Chapter Nine

...



"Rose, are you sure you want to be with a human?" Lisa asked me.

I froze, startled from the question, "Why wouldn't I?"

"He's weak, you're the coven leader and one of the strongest vampires in all the land." She aid as if that was reason enough for me.

"Choose your words wisely..." I warned.

"I'm just saying why go for him when you can have something more." She looked me straight in the eyes as she voiced out her opinion.

"Victor was human, Emily was human. He was mortal, same as she and so was I!" My voice raised in anger. I stood up in rage as she backed away.

"If you have a issue with humans, you better keep it to yourself. I won't tolerate your insolence." I told her.

How many others would feel this way. I knew I had turn him but when? When would I end the love of my immoral Dalmatian.

Andrea came from school. When her eyes rested on me she jumped into my arms without thought our hesitation as if it were routine.

"Hey sweetie how was school." I inquired.

"It was good. I did a drawing for art class wanna see." She asked excitedly.

"Of course." I put her down to which she ran to her bag and pulled out a page with a flower drawing on it.

"It's very pretty. Do you know where it should go?" I asked. She shook her head no and looked to me in confusion.

"How about the fridge?" I asked.

"Yeah! Thank you so much." She hugged me, After we hung it. She asked, "Can you teach me." She pointed to the piano. I nodded and she smiled and ran and sat on the bench. I played a song I composed.

Of course she fell asleep next to me. I carried her to the couch and layed her down and covered her. I continued to play.

.

.

Memories flooded my mind. All the good and bad only after the nostalgic sound did I notice River leaning against the door. He looked at me and smiled. He came and sat next to me.

"How were you turned?" I inhaled sharply.

"It's something I don't really want to remember." I stood and walked to the balcony.

River came outside after a few minutes.

"You can tell me Rose. I want to know everything about you. And I need you to know that you can trust me to tell me anything and not expect me to judge you because I won't." He held me from behind, his slightly muscular arms encasing me.

"I will tell you but first I want to know who was that... The guy that almost killed you and Andrea." He avoided eye contact.

"You need to trust me as well. I'll never judge you or leave you. You need to know that. I also want to kill anyone who ever hurt not only you but Andrea as well."

"He's my father." He paused and let go of me and held the railing.

"After my mother left he became abusive towards Andrea. He blamed her for my mother leaving. He started to drink and doing drugs. He used to sit around drinking. He lost his job.

I used to protect Andrea as much as I could. I used to leave her at her friends house while I was at school and I used to take her with me to work.

I used to do anything to keep her away from him. Then he saw what i was doing. He became even more abusive if that's possible.

He tried to kill her that day. If you didn't come we would've both been dead. That's why I wanted to become a vampire or anything really. I just wanted to protect her." A pearls of sadness escaped his eyes.

I hugged him immediately and I caressed his face. He rested his forehead on mine. I kissed his eyes and the tears away.

"You are one of the most bravest people I know." He smiled softly. He kissed me.

"I guess you should know my past. How I was turned." I said sitting down.

"You don't have to." He said.

"I want to." I took a deep breath.

"I was twelve when my mother and father we taken under slavery. Then they took me. I escape before they could do anything.

I ran. I ran as fast as my twelve year old legs could take me, but I was caught. They punished me for running.

They killed them in front of me, my parents. They made me listen to their screams and hear them beg for their lives. They made me watch as they were chained to wall getting beating upon beating until they died.

Then they left me there. I was chain to a wall. I couldn't turn around. I couldn't do anything but cry. After a week of watching my parents lifeless bodies next to me they finally took them away.

Then more punishment. They beat me, kept me in that cell for eight years. And they repeated it. Until they finally stop. I thought they were finally going to kill me. I was wrong.

The moment the bruises went away they sold me to a vampire. As a blood slave. He fed on me over and over again." I cried at the memory. He held me closer.

"But thats when I meet him. He was the son of William king. The king of Britain at the time. He was a vampire. He found me. And when I healed he drain every drop of blood with a knife. He stab and beat me continuously until I was on the brink of death then he turned me.

Then he left me in box and threw me in the middle of the ocean. I found a way out though. And I got my Revenge." I laughed darkly.

"I'm so sorry." He held me his chin resting on my head as I clung to him.

Chapter ten

...

We sat there simply in each others arms. My heart had a familiar pain blanketed over it. Then I heard it, it was fait like the flap of a bird's wings. I pulled back as I met his questionable gaze.

"Andrea." I whispered. I had heard her whimpers. I rushed to her room. The journey was short then I couldn't get there sooner.

She was shaking, physically trembling. Her whimpers loud and filled with mental pain. I shook her, trying to awaken her from her nightmare.

"Andrea. Wake up." I said holding her face.

Her eyes fluttered open and she began panting. I held her and she snuggled into me. I kept reassuring her nothing was going to happen and that she was fine.

She was still shaken up. I crept into her mind and gave her a good dream. Sending her into blissful slumber.

I kissed her head and tucked her in. I switched of the light and switch the night light on. The night light had stars on it and was indeed very pretty but that could never hide the things that go bump in the night.

"Your a great mother." River said. He didn't wait for me to reply because he took me in his arms. I wrapped my arm around his neck and he grinned and brought us to our chambers.

"Tomorrows the ball." I informed him as he laid on the bed then got in next to me.

"I don't have a suit."

"You underestimate my capabilities River, my love." He chuckled.

"Of course I don't. You are very much capable of anything."

"It's good that you know that. Keep that in mind for later." I told him mysteriously and placed my palms on his chest to keep myself up.

"Do you want children." He asked out of the blue.

"Of course." He smiled.

"Can vampires have children?" He asked with worry edged into his face.

"Would you still be with me if I couldn't?" I asked him and sat up. He didn't answer and looked down.

"Would you?" My voice went higher.

"Yes, I would but I always wanted children of my own." He explained.

"I can. I can have children but only with you, my beloved." I told him and went to my dresser and started brushing my hair. I was upset and I wanted him to know. I felt like her hesitated.

"Rose..."

"Go to sleep, I've got to check on something for the ball tomorrow." I said emotionless.

I walked into the closet and dressed in wine coloured skin tight dress with a criss cross in the front that showed some skin. It was off shoulder and paired with nude strap heels. My hair in it natural, supernatural curl and my lips tinted a dark red.

I picked a nude trench coat and walked out to see river there waiting. He looked at me with a lust and confusing expression.

"Don't wait for me." I told him and made way to the door.

"Where are you going." He asked incredulously.

"Here, there..." I drawled out and walked out to the garage and without looking back I drove away.

Did he think he just answer that question like that and have no repercussions...

No, I was going to dance, feed and have a blast.

...

Chapter 11

...

The night was a blur of me dancing, feeding and grinding. Then I came home, blood on my chest and face and the River came down. He apologized, begged for forgiveness and even cried a bit. I knew that I should still angry but I couldn't. Physically couldn't. How could you resent your beloved.

"Morning." His voice was husky and damn right sexy. His eyes still closed.

"Morning." I replied.

"How long have you been awake?" He asked.

"Not long." I answered.

"You should have woke me up."

"I didn't want to disturb you." He chuckled softly.

I tried to get up from bed when he stopped me.

"We're are you going?" He asked.

"I'm hungry, and I need to feed."

"How do you feed?"

"Blood bags mostly. Last night was rare. I missed having it from the vein." I said.

"Would you feed on me." He asked.

"No." I answered without hesitation.

"Why not."

"Because it your choice. I would never force you."

"What if i wanted you to." I turn to look at him.

"Do you want me to." He nodded.

"Are you sure?" I asked.

"Yes." I kissed him. I kissed him again and then trialed his cheek to his collar bone then I tiled his neck to get more access. My fangs came out and I sank them down into Rivers neck.

I sucked slowly carefully. My hands gripped his hair and he groaned. He gripped my hip and I moved my hips against his.

I let go of his neck and licked the leftover blood. That healed him.

"What do you think?"

"It's not what I imagined it to feel like." He kissed me. It was hard and fast. I let him dominate the kiss and he move one top of me.

"River we should stop." He nodded and laid next to me.

The door opened and Andrea appeared she ran and jumped to me. I quickly caught her before she could fall off. She giggled.

"Andrea sweetie that's dangerous." I said sternly.

"I'm sorry please don't be mad at me."

"I'm not mad but you could've gotten hurt." I reassured she giggled.

River had a stern face. "Andrea you could've gotten seriously hurt."

"I'm sorry dad." His eyes soften. Did she just call him dad? That's a new development... I had gotten an instant family.

He smiled. "You called me dad?"

"Yeah, I wish you were." She mumbled as tears pooled in her beautiful innocent eyes. He brought her in for a hug.

"You don't mind, do you?" She asked her head buried in his neck.

"Of course not. I'd love to be your dad." He assured her. He was more of a father than a brother. Always worrying, so proud of the smallest of things. He was a good father.

She turned to me. "And you can be my mommy." She said then waited for my answer but of course her question oddly resembled a statement.

"I'd love to." We held each other and relished in each other's loving embrace.

"Okay now you go get ready for breakfast. Both off you. Lucy's is off. Do you need help sweetie?" I asked.

"No mommy." It made my heart get warm. Hearing her call me that. I've been called that before by coven members as I was the mother of death that snatched their souls but this was different, the word spoken with so much adoration. I loved the feeling, it had a odd and surprising effect.

It made me think of when River and I would have children even though now Andrea was ours, it still made me wonder of a little River running around. I didn't know how he would feel but I would be over the moon.

I got out of bed and quickly got changed. (Outfit^_^)

I used vamp speed to clean up and made breakfast. I hit play on my phone and danced and sung to something in the way you move by Ellie Goulding.

I stuck a spoon of Nutella in my mouth and swayed my hips.

I felt someone watching me. I turned and saw River with Andrea watching me very amusingly.

I sung louder and moved with Andrea. She danced with me while River watched laughing. Andrea and I danced and sang to the music using the spoon as a mic.

After the song we sat and ate.

.

.

I took out my cardigan exposing my back.

"You have a tattoo?" River asked. I remember my ink, a symbol of love, a black rose. My mother's favorite flower hence my name 'Rose'.

"Yea I got a long time ago." I answered. I kissed his cheek.

"We need to get you a suit." I reminded him but there were other things on his mind.

His lips found mine in a passionate embrace like long lost lovers. I was a fierce passion and yet gentle at the same time. He was sweet and caring. I felt blessed to finally have a beloved. The kiss slowly escalated to which my hand trailed under his shirt to which he tensed.

"River." I pulled back to see his red lips but his worried expression.

"Are you okay?" I asked with concern.

"Yeah, it's just...I've never done that before." He confessed. His shoulders dropped as if in shame.

"I don't know what to...I'm not ready to..." He said clearly embarrassed by the topic.

"Hey, that's absolutely fine. No rush. We can go at our own pace." I assured him as I caressed his face. He was young and native. It made me wonder how someone like me ended up with him, not in a bad way. I felt like I was tainting him with my darkness and impurities.

What would happen next, only time will reveal our fate.

Chapter twelve

With rise of the midnight sun started the ball. Vampires from every shadow would attend. I remember my first. I remember all the lavish decor and endless supply of our liquid life, our sustenance.

I had wore a forest green ball gown with sapphire aplicay. I applied a dark red lipstick and pulled my hair back. I slipped on a pair of shoes and left to see to Andrea.

I put a bit out clear lip gloss for her. I don't want her using makeup until she is out enough. I added a protective necklace for her and her shoes.



We walked down the stairs to see River fidgeting with his suit. He looked up and he gawked. His mouth agape as he stared.

"You lo.. look amazing." He stuttered.

"Daddy!" Andrea exclaimed twirling in her dress.

"You look like a princess." He picked her up.

He came to me and placed a kiss on my lips. "You look beautiful." He said.

He took my hand and led me to the car waiting outside.

.

.

We arrived along with other humans and vampires. Everyone was dancing and talking. (Except it was brighter. More modern.)

We arrived and they announced it. Everyone turned to look at us. We were standing on top of the stairs.

"I'd like to thank everyone for coming today. It gives me great pleasure to introduce you to my beloved River Fyers and our daughter Andrea Fyers. I expect you to respect them as you respect me. Please enjoy." I ended it took Rivers hand.

Lisa and Emily came and took Andrea. They were absolutely in love with the little girl.

River and I were dancing. So were everyone else. Everyone danced in sync. River was quite the dancer who stepped on my foot a couple times but I didn't mind it. He kept apologizing.

We needed a break from dancing... Meaning he needed a break. Human tend to tire. People came up and congratulated us on finding each other.

Lisa came and tapped my shoulder and whispered in my ear.

"She's here, in the garden and she seems upset." Lisa said.

I looked at her. They worry evident on my face.

"I'll be back." I kissed his cheek and walked to the garden.



She sat on the bench near the fountain. I made my way next to her.

"Alice..."
