Drakn ran his hand through his jet black hair. His father had just died, following his mother into the fade. Their people had mourned for a week, a respectable amount for the King of the Vampires but not long enough for Drakn. Since his fathers death, Drakn had become King, something he had been prepared for long before his transition but he didn't feel prepared. He felt drained, he needed to feed. Calling on the chosen hadn't taken long, but he was still waiting for one of them to arrive. Sighing he got up from his fathers desk, he would have to find a mate soon. A Queen to be by his side, bear their children and rule their people. Unfortunately Drakn was too damn picky to pick just anyone, the gymen had been throwing females at him for months. First thing Drakn found wrong with them was that they were all post transtiation. He wanted his queen to have only tasted his blood to have only been with him. Drakn knew that was going to bed hard to do since those females were rarely allowed out of their homes for fear they'd go through the transition. Looking out the window at the moon Drakn pondered the idea of just picking a random female he'd never seen. His friends, members of the black dagger brotherhood would be more then happy to help him find one. He glanced at the door as someone knocked.
"Enter" He said turning to face the open door. Axe his best friend and one of the brother's came in.
"You look like your thinking too hard, even for a King." Axe grinned at Drakn as he shut the door behind him, and sat down in a chair, his armour clanking as he did.
"I have to find a mate, and soon. I'm not sure how to go about it though." Drakn said taking his seat again and swinging his legs up to rest on the desk, a pose his father often did.
"Ah, I see. So how are you going to do that? You don't like any of the females that you've been shown too." Axe said and Drakn nodded.
"Their all lovely and well mannered but none of them…hold my attention for very long." He agreed and Axe looked at him.
"So am I to search for one?" He joked and Drakn shot him a look.
"Your not serious? Your going to send me on a mission to find you a mate?" Axe said and Drakn nodded a little.
"You know what I'm looking for, I couldn't trust anyone else to do it. Just go find one tell her she's mating me and bring her back." Drakn said and Axe shook his head.
"How am I going to get a female and her family to agree to that?" He asked and Drakn raised an eyebrow at him.
"I'm King, she'll do as she's damn well told." He replied.
