Its been two weeks since my wife, the queen, sentenced our daughter into exiled and stripped her of her title. Two weeks of me trying to convince her to not strip her of her title. Two weeks of destroying the palace. Two weeks of countless fighting. Now though, it's been two weeks since I last ate. Since I spoke to my wife. I haven't even left my daughters room. Since my wife kicked our daughter out, I haven't slept with her in our room. I slept in Scarlet's room. The maids tried to get me to leave the room, to eat, to do something. But I kicked them out every time. My daughter was my Princess, my little girl and now she's gone. Nothing will ever be the same. Once my wife did what she did, that's when I realised she had changed. I didn't like what I saw after that. Of course once she kicked Scarlet out, she has been meeting with other Princesses to take over once we die. Each time though, I ruined it, I went crazy and scared them all away. Once they left the palace I went back into Scarlet's room.
This kept on continuing. I'm not going to stop either until my wife gets it through her head that what she did wasn't right.
As I laid on Scarlet's bed looking up at the ceiling, I heard a knock at the door. I ignored it, figured it was just one of the maids trying to get me to come down for dinner. Then the door opened and in walked the queen, my wife.
"Are you going to stay in this room forever?"
"If I have to."
"You are being absurd! Scarlet is gone, she's not coming back. She made her choice now she has to live with it. Stop being such a child and come down for dinner." I shot off the bed so fast. Once I got close to her I grabbed her from the neck and lifted her off of the floor. I slammed her into the wall while my grip on her neck tightened.
"You left her no choice but to leave. She was destined to be with a vampire." I growled out at my wife Evelyn. She grabbed the hand that was wrapped around her neck. She tried to pry my hand off but I was too strong for her.
"You need to calm down baby, your vampire from inside is coming out."
I leaned my head forward and smelled her neck.
"And so what if it does? I should kill you the same way you killed my father and my mom when I was seventeen." I watched as Evelyn's eyes grew bigger.
"I don't know what you are talking about." I laughed and shook my head.
"Growing up, mom would always mumble about someone killing my dad. Someone named Evelyn. Then when I turned seventeen I watched you kill my mom. I made it my mission then to marry you, just so one day I could kill you. But then we had Scarlet and I couldn't do that to her. But now you kicked my princess out."
"You don't want to kill me, trust me you don't. Deep down you know you love me."
"I never loved you, I just tolerated you for Scarlet's sake." I watched her eyes grow wider by the minute. Killing her was always what I wanted to do from the day I seen her kill my mother. She took everything from me, my father, my mother, and now my child. I won't let her take any more from me. I dived my head towards her neck and bit into her flesh. I felt my fangs sink deep into her neck. Felt her delicious blood twickle down my throat as I drew her blood into my mouth. I felt her squirm, trying to get out of my hold. I heard her scream and ignored it. She deserved this, she deserved more than this, honestly. Killing her would be too easy though, and I wanted her to suffer. Suffer the way she made me suffer all those years up into now. I walked downstairs and as I passed one guard by the bottom of the stairs, I told him to lock the Queen up in the old dungeons. He gave me a skeptical look but did it nonetheless. Evelyn didn't go quietly though, she kicked and screamed all the way down in the basement where we call the dungeon. I proceeded towards my office where I will take care of some matters, starting with dropping Evelyn's title. She will no longer be the Queen of this country. Then after I do that, I'll start figuring out how to get my daughter back.
Scarlet
It has been a year since I have last seen my parents. A year since my title has been dropped. A year since I lived in Boston. Ever since I left the palace and came to Boston, my life, our lives has been more peaceful. I'll be lying if I said that I didn't like peace, because I do a lot. I was a little hurt once me and Hunter saw on the news that my parents dropped my title. What hurt the most though was when they told everyone that I had died. I cried for a week straight. I couldn't believe that my parents or maybe just my mom would do something like that. Now all you see on the news is how they have been meeting other Princesses to take over the thrown. Yea I was hurt of course, who wouldn't be. After the announcement of the third Princess I stopped watching the news for a while. It hurt too much to watch. I felt disowned by my parents, like I didn't even exist anymore, and technically I didn't. I was in the kitchen fixing me and Hunter a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Yes I know vampires don't need to eat human food, but we like to, because it eases our cravings for blood. We will eat human food just so we wouldn't go out and kill the whole human population of Boston. Plus eating human food makes us feel a little bit human at times. Right when I was spreading the jelly on the bread Hunter called me out.
"Babe come out here, there's something you really need to see right now!" Hunter yelled from the living room. I sighed and placed the butter knife with jelly smeared all over it onto my plate. I then walked out of the kitchen and into the living room. I stopped abruptly once my eyes fell upon the t.v.. There was a picture of my mom on the news. She had long black hair with brown eyes. But what kept me frozen where I was, was the heading above her picture. The heading above her picture said she had died. Then the news lady on t.v. said she died of a heart attack, which made no sense. My mom never had any heart problems, hell she was the most healthiest person I knew. You couldn't ever catch her eating a Burger or fries, she wouldn't even drink soda. All she ever ate were salads and she would drink nothing but water. She wouldn't even drink wine. So her dying of a heart attack just didn't make any sense. My knees then buckled from under me and if Hunter hadn't used his vamperic speed, I would have fell on the floor. Hunter held me as I took everything in. At first it just didn't seem real. But as the news lady kept talking, everything came crashing down. I was mad at first, because of the last conversation I had with my mom. The last situation I was in with my mom. And now she's dead, that's the last memory I have of my mom. Just then I became hysterical, crying and screaming as my heart broke into two. I felt like I was dying, like someone reached into my chest and ripped my heart out. I tried getting out of Hunters arms to run outside, but he held me tighter.
"We need to go back to England." I said in a whisper.
"You know we can't do that. Everyone thinks your dead." Hunter told me. We sat there on the floor of the living room for a while. Hunter was holding me and rubbing my back as I calmed down as my eyes were glued to the t.v. The news lady was still talking about my mothers death. I couldn't listen to this anymore, I couldn't watch it anymore, so I gently backed out of Hunter's grasp and slowly walked up stairs. I walked into our room and climbed on top of our bed. I pulled the covers over myself and I curled up into a ball as I cried. I cried all night until I fell asleep.
I didn't know when Hunter came into bed, but I woke up to him holding me in a death grip. Instead of getting up I just stayed in his warm arms. I know you guys heard a lot about vampires and how that once you turn into a vampire you lose your soul and you become cold as ice. Well that's not true at all, we still have our souls and we are still warm. Hunter told me that those who are born as vampires have souls and everything else a human has. But if a person was once a human and was turned into a vampire, then yes they basically die. They lose their soul and yes they do become cold as ice. But since Hunter was born as a vampire and since I had vampire blood in me since birth, we can both age, until we hit a certain age we want to stay at for the rest of our lives. Hunter and I aren't too sure about if we can have babies though. He told me that, that hasn't happened in years, not since my grandmother had her baby. At this point I wasn't sure if it was my moms mom or my dads mom. No one talked about the old king and queen. I never met my grandmother, she died before I was ever born. I use to ask questions about my grandparents but no one would tell me a thing. And it seems like Hunter doesn't know anything either. Eventually I started to move. I didn't want to be in one place at the moment. So I got up out of the bed as slowly as I could, so I wouldn't wake Hunter up. Then I went into the bathroom and into the shower. As I dipped my head under the water, about to get ready to wash my hair, Hunter came into the shower and pulled me into a hug.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm okay." I say, but Hunter didn't believe me. Hunter lifted my chin up with his index finger so he could look at my face. He does this often to see how I really am. He can read me like an open book once he looked into my eyes. Thats why I tried to look every where but at him, but eventually he saw what he was looking for. At that moment I tried so hard not to cry, but I cried anyways. You know how when someone asks you how you are feeling, then they look at you and they automatically know, and tears come streaming down your face uncontrollably. Well that's exactly what happened just now.
"I don't know why you try to hide how you feel around me. What ever you go through, I go through it with you too. Your not alone in this baby." I bent my head down and nodded my head. But Hunter lifted my chin again. He bent down and kissed each tear that came down until I laughed.
"Thats my girl. Never think for a minute that you can't come to me with anything. I'm here for you baby. Now what do you want to do?"
"Cuddle up on the couch."
"Okay but on one condition. You have to wear nothing but one of my t-shirts."
"Okay." I agreed and we finished washing up. I wore nothing but a thong and his black T-shirt that came down to my knees. We were cuddled on the couch when Hunter turned the t.v. on. At first we didn't pay any attention to what was on. Hunter was busy trialing kisses all over my neck. And I was getting turned on until the news lady got our attention.
"I'm here today to share some confusing but joyful news with you today. It is said that Princess Scarlet never died. That she is in fact still alive. This is the only thing I can tell you as this is the only thing the king of England has told me. No one knows where Princess Scarlet is, so who ever see's this, please help us find our Princess. We need you, and your father needs you most of all right now as he burrys his wife in a week. Please Princess Scarlet, where ever you are, please come back home." Everything stopped, my heart stopped beating, I stopped breathing. Hunter stopped kissing me as we both looked at the t.v. What we knew to be peaceful, was now as of today, shattered.
