Does the supernatural world exist? Are Vampires real? or is it a myth? a legend? or an imagination? Over 7000 years ago, Vampires ruled the world and humans. They were seen as gods sent to devour mankind and rid them of their freedom. Humans were nothing but food and a play thing to them. This went on for years, with the humans population decimating rapidly. It continued like this, until, King Henry of Slovakia came into power. Wanting peace in his reign, he decided to come into an agreement with the rulers of the Vampires. The treaty was drawn; the pact was forged and it became a law all kings after him were to abide by. After every 100 years, on the day of the blood moon, princesses born to the Slovakian kingdom would be given to the Vampires prince to be his bride. Although this sounded as a very kind offer to the humans, only the princesses given out understood the true meaning of the pact. It was a death sentence. Once they sign the scroll, their fates are sealed and death is inevitable. Being a vampire bride is never a bed of roses for them because it means that they'd be preys to the Vampires, either as food or slaves and moreover, they won't be recognised as brides of the prince since they are humans, a different creature. After civilization kicked in, the pact was deactivated and the humans forgot about it. Only top officials knew but the mass didn't. To calm raging vampires, the government along with some royals would take a few girls and hand them over as sacrifice. But a new leader of the Vampires arose, a more cold one who wouldn't take just 'a few girls'. He wants his bride and would stop at nothing to get her, if it means destroying the human population. ___________________________________ Bella Rodriguez, an aspiring young lady who at the age of 17 became the bread winner of her family after her parents demise.
