I'm bad. I just got a whole lot of new books and have been reading and this one. After I finished reading it, it gave me an idea for a cross

Go figure

Someone needs to stop me.

I do not own Harry Potter or the Dark Carpathian series

Prologue

If I was to know I would become the bridge between those who raised me and the Wizarding world. I would have scoffed at them. But knowing now, what my family and what I could have lost...well. I am glad that I came to them when I did.

Being among the Carpathians was a unique experience. You would never figure that what others call Vampires, were once these proud and noble people, whose souls had given up on finding the one who can save them.

That is after all what Vampires were.

They were the men, who could no longer wait, for the one woman who was their light to the darkness that was in their hearts. That is when those who were the hunters like my adoptive father would move to deal with them.

My grandfather Roland was the first important vampire he had to kill. It was all at that time he could do, to protect my adoptive mother as well as my aunt whom at the time was pregnant with my cousin Savannah.

It seems my grandmother Moira O'Halloran, who was my adoptive maternal grandmother, was the life mate to Roland. Due to circumstances, he being married for one, things had happened and he never fully bonded with her. As a result when she had lost all contact with him, she allowed herself to waste away with want and die...and well...

Although it was his own fault for never bonding with her, my grandfather gave up his soul to the dark and to vengeance against those who had loved ones.

Never knowing about my adoptive mother, who was his daughter, and who lived. He would not find out about Shea O'Halloran who was the chosen life mate to my adoptive father, Jacques Dubrinsky, for many years. Not until his son was murdered...

Not until she herself nearly became a target for those who had done it. It was only by chance that Jacques was still sane despite the torture he had endured. Incredibly strong and resilient for a Carpathian, it was only by circumstance that in his torture his soul had reached out and found Shea's.

Seeing color as he did for the first time in nearly 1500 years, it had been too much.

It almost had driven him insane according to his father and Uncle Mikhail as according to them and my mother, when he had been found after being missing for so long. It was only by the fact that the stake driven through his body was not in the anatomically correct place that had kept him alive until my mother found him.

And even then the only person who could get near him was my mother Shea. As his life mate, she was the only one he would trust. Even Uncle Mikhail could not get close to him, and they were brothers. And not only brothers, but Uncle Mikhail was the Prince and leader of the Carpathian race.

Getting off track though...

But it was necessary as it was to help you understand, so had to be said. Anyway back in the beginning I said I would be the bond between my family and that of the Wizarding world.

You see Moira O'Halloran had a sister. Her name was Rosaline who married a Englishman named Thomas Evans. She had two daughters...Lily and Petunia Evans.

Lily Evans, the youngest of the two, was my biological mother. Her and my father were both apparently mages and wizards as apparently their world called them. To the world I live in, well they were enemies somewhat. Never has a mage and a Carpathian mixed willingly since the one known as Xavier kidnapped one of ours long ago.

Rhiannon, was also a mage as were most Carpathians, it was a part of their nature after all.

But unlike Hogwarts of now, when she was taken, the place did not exist yet. Instead she had Xavier, who she would come to realize was insane. Forcing her compliance and then forcing her in other things as she was basically a tool in his quest for immortality.

Things did not go to well from there, nor have they for the last 3000 years or so.

Because of what that wizard at the time had done. There had been trouble among the Carpathian race.

The lack of women. Without women, the men were doomed to either kill themselves or turn Vampire. The women were the only ones who could save them. Without their light, after a few hundred years, they would lose the ability to see color... Then emotions...and then if they choose. Their souls

Because of the lack of women, there was also a lack of children. And even then something was wrong with the children. Most Carpathian children did not survive. It was only recently found that the Earth which all children need could possibly be the reason why this was happening.

Humans... There was a group out there being manipulated by the Vampires. Unlike before where the Vampires would strike out solitarily, they had taken to getting allies among the humans and the mages to try and destroy the Carpathian Race. So far they have failed, because surprisingly enough many of the old ones still live. Men older then Mikhail who were sent out to hunt down these countries were returning home.

Such examples were Lucian and Gabriel, twins and older brothers to Gregori, Darius, and Desari. They were considered to be among the deadliest. Both on the verge of giving up, it took Gabriel's mate Francesca saving him, to detect the fact that Lucian's future mate Jax had only recently been born. Both men were over 3000 years old and it took Francesca who was the same age to detect the fact that Jax had only recently turned 24 and was human.

Those reasons were only the beginning of what was happening since Xavier had decided to wipe out the Carpathian race in his quest to become immortal.

This is where I had come in. Through circumstances of fate, I was an orphan along with my cousin Dudley.

Neither one of us knowing nor even understanding as we were only 1 when it occurred, we were taken to an orphanage as their parents were buried. Neither one of us understanding, considering we were only children, these people had made a hunt for any family members as surely there was someone able to take us in before they were put up for adoption.

In the end, they did find someone.

They just weren't human. But they were family or at least the soon to be mother was.

As this was going on though, another problem would arise years later as an alliance was born. Xavier had returned. And not only was he having vampires aide him against the Carpathian people. He now had other mage allies seeking out the immortality and power the Carpathian people had...

Men and women in black cloaks and white masks....

Aahhh, but I am getting ahead of myself once again, as there is a lot to tell on how I know about that alliance and of the fact myself and my friends and family had fought them and won.

So I ask of you those who are reading this. Shall I continue?

Shall I tell you my story?
