Hey guys, this is my first story so I don't really know how to do this fanfiction stuff.
I know that most fanfiction books don't have a glossary but I wanted you to have a vague idea of the world in my book.
Please bear with me, the first few chapters are a little slow but then things start moving fast and things start to get…steamy. So just read on and I promise you won't be disappointed.
Please Review and tell me what you think, it only takes a minute out of your busy life.
Well, that's all I have to say. Thank you for reading and I hope to see you until the end. Enjoy!
Glossary
Strigoi: Or more commonly referred to as vampires. They are the male and female offspring of 2 Pure Strigoi. They are rare as most die at birth and most are males, as they are stronger and therefore more likely to survive the birth. The vampires feed on human blood and will weaken if deprived of it for too long. The vampire's age as humans do until they are 17, when they go through the Transition, and then they are immortal. The color of the vampire's eyes once he wakes up after his Transition at 17 determines what rank he will be in the vampire community, they currently don't know how the eyes change but they do have Scientists working on it. They wear contacts to hide their unnatural eyes.
Lamia: Or half vampire. They are the offspring of a Pure Strigoi and a human. They do not have to feed on blood, but many enjoy the pleasures that blood brings to them and prefer to drink it. Others don't. They do not possess the strength and accurate senses of a Pure Strigoi but they have more strength and stronger senses than a normal human. They also got through a Transition, but a much smaller one than Pure Strigoi and their eyes do not change color. They age incredibly slowly(about 80 Lamia years is one human year), but they do eventually die of old age, unlike the Strigoi. About 13% of the earths population is Lamia, 1% is Pure Strigoi and 86% is humans.
The whole vampire population is divided into clans. The largest and most powerful clans are the Pecrus(Pec) and the Valde(Val). They are always competing and are strong rivals. The clans are further divided into ranks.
