Prologue:

500 years ago…

"Anissina, Hurry up, your fiancée will arrive there soon," shouted a voice travelling up into a girl's room who was applying a light shade of make up, Anissina sighed and then placed her brush down and then stood up, and rushed out of her room.

Her father was waiting on the bottom of the stairs he looked at his daughter who had her red hair up and she was wearing a off shoulder Victorian gown, Anissina was walking down the stairs, the way her etiquette teacher taught her, she reached the bottom and then her father offered her his arm.

"You look dazzling," said her father.

"I thank you for the compliment, father," said Anissina as she smiled gracefully as she accepted the arm of her father.

"Well then let's go, else we will be fashionably late," said the father as he lead his daughter to the carriage and then he let his daughter enter first, then him and sat across his daughter. "Now my daughter, I want you to be in your best behavior, be gracious enough to your host, if you see your fiancée please greet him, don't be afraid to meet others, but most of all act like a lady."

"Yes, father," said Anissina.

Anissina entered the party and then she curtsied to her host and then let the men kiss her hands and then she started walking around, she smiled and nodded her head and then noticed a man on the side of the room drinking wine staring at her, Anissina felt chills run through her spine and then quickly left the scene all the while the man looking at her.

"Anissina, over here," said a woman's voice, causing Anissina to look and then smile her bright blue eyes lighting in happiness.

"Virginia," said Anissina and then she approached him and then they walked around chatting, twice Anissina caught that man looking at her.

The man had long blond hair, gold eyes and he was really gorgeous to look at, he was wearing a silk cloak, a white frilly blouse and lack pants, and rather nice leather shoes, he saw Anissina looking at him and he smiled.

"Virginia, who is that man?" asked Anissina to her best friend.

Virginia looked and then saw the man Anissina was talking about and then smiled at Anissina.

"Well, you're one lucky girl," said Virginia. "He is Count Antoine von Kabenikoff… he is mostly alone, doesn't get out in the mornings, not really interested at women, but it seems that he is interested in you."

"Surely, he must know I am engaged," said Anissina.

The count could hear what they were saying and he smiled that they were talking about him but he gave no sign that he could hear them, this Anissina would be a perfect mate, if he could get her alone, but upon hearing that she was already engaged he frowned upon that.

'I must have her,' he thought as he took another sip from his wine.

"But have you any idea how much he earns every year?" asked Virginia.

"No, please enlighten me," said Anissina.

"Well, he earns 50,000 pounds a year," said Virginia. "That's more than your fiancée earning 10,000 pounds a year."

"But money is not an issue in my marriage to Franklin," said Anissina.

"Still, I would go for more money, when I'm alive," said Virginia.

"I…" said Anissina but her mother arrived, she had gone ahead to help prepare the party.

"Anissina, there you are, your fiancée is waiting for you," said her mother.

"Mother, I…" said Anissina but her mother grasped her arms.

"Not another word, let us go," said the mom and then started pulling her daughter away from her best friend, Antoine followed but at a safe distance.

They stopped right in front of a prestigious family and then they bowed, Antoine listened to the mother introduce them and then the parents of the male presented their son, and Franklin went to Anissina and asked for a dance and then she acquiesced and then they headed to the dance room and then bowed to each other and then started to dance a waltz.

"You look ravishing tonight," said Franklin.

"I wanted to look my best for you," said Anissina.

"Well, words cannot compare to how I see you tonight," said Franklin.

"Maybe you don't need words," said Anissina. "Just gestures, would be enough for me."

"I would like that," said Franklin dipping her and then when he straightened her he went to kiss her.

Antoine could stay at the back anymore, this was his mate, now and forever, not this measly human, he immediately crossed the room and then cleared his throat and then they looked at him.

"Would you mind if I cut in to dance with this Ravishing woman?" asked Antoine.

"No of course not," said Franklin and then bowed to them and then the Count bowed to Anissina and she curtsied and they danced.

Antoine was slender built but Anissina could feel the muscles, and he was really graceful, people stopped dancing just to look at them.

"Miss von Bielefeld is dancing with Count von Kabenikoff," said a woman. "She's one lucky woman."

"Miss von Bielefeld," said Antoine suddenly. "Do you believe in fate?"

"Sir, I am not entitled to "Fate" as you call it," said Anissina. "I am a woman born of prestige, and for that comes a price, for us there is no fate."

"Ah, Miss von Bielefeld, there will always be fate, if you have anything to do about it," said Antoine and he tightened his hold on Anissina.

Anissina didn't like where this was going and then roughly pushed him away and then walked away, Antoine only smiled and then walked away.

'Soon, Anissina, Soon, you will be mine,' thought Antoine and then walked away.

For a months going to the wedding there were several meetings, Anissina would catch glimpses of the count and would walk away, there was always that feeling of apprehension on seeing him.

But there was something terrible that happened on the night before the wedding, the police arrived at their place, Anissina was embroidering in the porch when they arrived, her parents accepted them in and then Anissina sat down.

"I would hate to announce this, with your upcoming wedding Miss Von Bielefeld but I regret to inform you that there will not be a wedding to take place," said one of the officers.

"Please tell me why?" asked Anissina slowly.

"Well, the viscount's family and the viscount himself were found in their room, dead, there was no sign of forced entry and they were dried of blood," said the Police. "And My lady we need someone to identify the bodies."

"Oh, right, I'll go," said Anissina and then turned to her mother. "Mother, may I use the carriage?"

"Of course my darling," said the mother and then Anissina took her cloak and when she exited the house, she saw the carriage was ready, she climbed in and then she gave the order and then the carriage continue racing, she looked out of the window wondering what was happening.

When she arrived they lead her to the coroner's office and then my forensics looked at her.

"I am sorry, about what happened, but could you identify them?" he asked.

Anissina nodded but didn't say anything, the man lowered the blanket covering their faces and Anissina gasped, it was her beloved Franklin and his parents, there on that table, Anissina walked slowly and then fell to her knees grasping the hand of her beloved, tears falling from her eyes, the men in the office backed away leaving her space for her grieving, they felt sorry for her, everyone knew her wedding was tomorrow.

After calming down she stood up and then nodded that he was her fiancée, and then they thanked her for her cooperation and then Anissina was about to leave when another alarm has been sent, it was one of her maids in the police station clearly out of breath, screaming about a man attacking the Bielefeld family.

Anissina stopped in shock, her family had been attacked, she looked around they were all looking at her, this certainly wasn't a nice night for her, she knew that she'll be a topic of gossip by tomorrow and she certainly didn't want that.

Anissina started running out of the office not caring if where she was going, she was blinded by her tears, and no one deemed to stop her, Anissina stopped when she was tired and found herself on her parish, she pushed open the doors and then entered she ran to the altar and there landed right in front of it.

"Why, my lord, did you do this?" she asked crying her heart out. "You take all the people I love away from me why?"

"It's not "Him" that took them away from you," said a voice causing Anissina to turn around and then stand her back behind the altar.

"Count," said Anissina drying her tears. "Why are you here?"

"I merely heard your voice my dear and I can't do anything but look for you," said Antoine going near his cloak billowing behind him.

Antoine stopped right in front of Anissina and placed his hand on either side of her cutting her escape and she really didn't like it.

"What do you want?" asked Anissina.

"Ah, it is nice for you to ask," said Antoine as his face went closer and then Anissina leaned back. "Miss von Bielefeld, the moment I laid my eyes on you I know I had to have you."

"You should have known I was engaged that time," said Anissina.

"Indeed, to a mere human," said Antoine. "With that considerably short lifespan of him, I could have you, but I didn't want your beauty to have gone to waste just for that human."

"I… just who are you really?" asked Anissina.

"Or do you mean what," said Antoine. "I, my dear lady, am a child of the darkness."

"A child of darkness?" asked Anissina.

"You humans always try to attain the eternal light, but the eternal light has some kind of darkness in it, now the eternal darkness is a freedom you could never feel, I am a Vampire, I am a chosen one, and you will be soon as my wife."

"What?!" said Anissina shocked.

"Who do you think killed your family and that other family just to get to you," said Antoine smiling.

"You, you did this, why?" said Anissina.

"You have nothing to blame but yourself, you beauty entices me, so I have to turn you into one of us," said Antoine as he grasped Anissina's hand and then lifted her chin with the other exposing her neck.

Anissina tried to struggle but she was trapped, Antoine knew this and he smiled showing off his fangs.

"Miss von Bielefeld, or should I say my dear, sweet Anissina, I will give you eternal darkness," said Antoine. "Don't worry Anissina, my bite will give you nothing but pleasure more than anything in the world can offer."

"No, don't, Stop," shouted Anissina but then the last thing she remembered was pain and then pleasure before her world became black.

A man entered the church just as Antoine fed Anissina with his blood, a blood of a day walker, enough for her to completely turn in a few days, when he looked up to see his brother.

"What have you done, Antoine," said the man.

"I just found my mate," said Antoine.

"Are you stupid, she was unwilling," sneered the other vampire.

"I have chosen her as my mate," said Antoine. "You cannot stop me brother."

The opposing vampire bit his finger hard enough to draw blood and used the blood to materialize a sword and then he threw it at Antoine who gasped as it pierced his shoulder and made him stuck on the table.

The other vampire carried Anissina and then started walking out of the church with Anissina in his hands.

"Brother, what are you going to do?" asked Antoine.

"I'm going to go as far away from you as possible Antoine, I'm going to raise her, when you will meet each other; she'll be the one who will kill you, and any dark creatures that disrupt the balance between light and dark creatures," said the Vampire and then continued to walk away.

"She's mine; you better not take her, Give her back… SEVERUS…" Antoine shouted as Severus continued to walk away.
