"I didn't know..."
Chapter 1
"Help me for I have sinned."
Katarina never knew about her life, she didn't know anything about her family, she didnt even know her own surname. She was abandoned by her father at the age of 2 and left to become a weapon for The Vampire High Council. She was told that her family was dead, wiped out by slayers and now dust. Katarina grew up to become a proper vampire, she was trained to do combat since the age of 4. She was also taught not to show mercy for her foes. Mercy was weak. Emotions and attachments was for the weak too. That is what Katarina believed as well. No matter what Katarina would always listen to the council, if she didnt she would get punished. Katarina never cared about anyone except herself and the council, they were her family and if someone said they weren't...well, they should watch out because Katarina will get hungry, fast.
Katarina was trained to become a weapon, an assassin, something that everyone would fear and do anything to get their hands on. If she ever disobeyed she would get punished rather harsh. The council would beat her till she couldn't walk. Or a few bones were broken.
They forced her to get her full powers at the age of 13. From then on she was the most powerful vampire at the council. She knew she was the strongest. So people respected Katarina. They never treated her badly since she got her powers or else she would snap their neck.
Katarina and the other fellow council kids played a game every year. Where they would pick names out of the hat.
The first name was of a vampire clan well known to the council.
The second was the name of the child that had to carry out an evil deed. Kat was never old enough to be able to do the games till she was 17. Her first year she was able to be picked, she got picked. And so did a Dracula name.
But of course Kat had to run her idea threw with the council as it was the Draculas. She did her research of the Draculas, especially the Count. She found out about Elizabetta, she got approval for her plan and went to Romania to find her. What Katarina didn't know was that Elizabetta had a son. So Kat had to invite both Malik and his mother back to the council. She had no idea how they looked like, no clue.
One day after Katarina just completed her mission to kill some slayers who were getting too close to finding out what The High Council was planning she saw a man, a good looking man but she didn't really care and kept walking. She heard him whistle behind her but tried to ignore it, she didn't have time to take care of this random guy, she had to go back and report that her mission was a success.
"Well, that's not a nice way to greet your guests is it." The man said. Katarina turned around and saw a teenage boy, about her age, she walked over to him and pushed him against the wall hard.
"You piece of homeless shit! What do you want?!" She was furious, she hated when people budged in while she was doing her own business.
"My name is Malik. I'm supposed to be meeting Katarina." He smirked looking down at the girl. Katarina quickly let him go, the council would be furious if she hurt him.
"Sorry...I uh...thought you were some pervert..." Katarina's face went red from the embarrassment and she looked down. Malik just started to laugh.
"A pervert? Really? Wow...I'm so heartbroken!" He said sarcastically and put his hand over his heart when he said he was heartbroken. "Oh wait, I don't have a heart." A grin formed on his lips, that grin could make a girl fall over by just staring at it however Katarina wouldn't dare fall for this boy, it would be against the council rules which she obeyed. Most of the time.
