The First Son
Chapter One: Mistakes Mounting
I am a protector of nothing, but all and a warrior for those my mother Bella deems worthy. A hero in the eyes of many. And a prince to all who know of my heritage. I am Andreas Black-Swan, the first son.
"My mother thinks I won't be able to handle this the way that it should be. But, if it were left up to her I wouldn't be meeting my father now would I Darth?"
A boy who looked to be that of a twenty year old, but was only actually 15, sat across from his red headed companion and best friend since diapers Darth Noll. Who, quite unsuccessfully at this point, was trying to talk his friend out of seeing his father behind his mother, Bella's back.
"That's no' the point ye retard. Ugh! The point is that ye mother is going to find out, and when she does…BAM all in ye arse with her foot, ye see me point now!" Darth may act stupid, but that didn't mean he was. Bella after being broken twice, finding out about her heritage from her mother, and being taken in by people who barely knew her, had changed. To Andreas it was for the better, after hearing what his mother endured. Darth believed she was at times, just very much an all-around BITCH. All she needed in his opinion was a niceee lonnnng…
"DARTH!"
"Wha'!" Darth shouted nearly falling out of his damn seat.
"Keep your mind on the prize ya moron." Andreas rolled his eyes; he could only guess where his friend's mind had gone.
"What did ye say again, I'm sorry for blanking out jus' then. Ye know how tis' one's mind is." Darth laughed uneasily.
Andreas stood from his seat, heading towards the door, but not before letting Darth know his mind was still unchanged on the matter at hand.
"Forget whatever my mother has to say on the damn matter I will see my father! And he will know his place!" He yelled fiercely.
Darth could only stare on, as his best friend and prince of all that was supernatural left him to deal with the consequences of his decision. 'Lady Bella is going to tare tis' one a new bloody arse-hole." He sighed. "Fuck my life."
Bella sat upon her windowsill watching her son, her brave, stubborn, arrogant son, Andreas. Leaving to do what he thought she knew nothing about. Who does he think had Darth try to convince him to not see Jacob?
Jacob. A name she had not thought or uttered in fifteen years. He had been her everything. She had left Edward, and fought for their love, because she believed him when he said, she was his one and only, and would fight the imprint. Yet as soon as that woman, that bitch came along and they laid eyes upon each other- it was all she wrote.
Thinking of it now still makes her heart and lungs constrict in gut wrenching pain.
She turned to face Darth who wore the sullen look of a failure.
"Lady Bella I have failed ye in the task ye have asked of tis' one." He hung his head low prepared for the punishment he was sure to receive. Bella at one point was above punishing her subjects…but she learned that forgive and forget was for the weak. A nice reminder her father gave her every day he came to visit.
Of course she would never subject them to physical punish, she was not some cruel bitch like her Dam, nor as ruthless as her Sire. But she did, punish when and only when it was called for.
"Do not be afraid Darth I'm not going to punish you. You are like a son to me. It doesn't disappoint me to see that you have failed at the task at hand. In fact you did quite well." She turned and offered him a sweet smile.
"He did exactly what I knew he was going to do. My pup must learn that all things come with a consequence. He will be hurt, but I am to blame for whatever happens because I should have told him."
"Lady Bella what is it you-"
She interrupted his question quickly with a raise of her hand. "All will come to pass soon enough Darth. I have another request to ask of you."
"Yes Mi'Lady?"
"Join Andreas- you are to help him and guide him where he needs guidance and keep him in check. If the outcome looks to be death, call for me and I shall come to aid him. Now quickly go before you lose him."
Darth quickly bowed before running to catch up with his best friend. He would have followed regardless, with Bella's orders or not.
Now that she was again alone she could start to once again ponder upon what the real plan of action will be when Andreas finds out that Jacob was aware that she was pregnant when he and the pack ordered her to leave or be forced out.
Hopefully, Andreas wouldn't awaken that ancient blood that made them royal among the supernatural world.
His mother knew just how to piss him the fuck off. He didn't mind that Darth was tagging along. His friend was loyal to him, he would have come along anyway, because that's what best friends did, they stuck together through all the good and the bad. But for his mother to dare order him to do anything that concerned him…well like he stated, she knew all too well how to piss him off.
It may seem to those looking in from the outside that he hated or disliked his mother in some way or form. However, that was untrue. He loved his mother above all. No one could replace the love in his heart he held for his mother. He was just angry FOR her. She still refuses till this very fucking day to stand-up for herself.
She had been wronged by not only her parents, but her lover as well. He had betrayed her in a way that could never be forgiven. His mother held power…shit she was power. She could kill a vampire with just a single thought; throw the world in to turmoil and chaos with just a wave of her fucking pinky.
So why, why couldn't she for once show those below her station who really was alpha. She'd showed him his place millions of times. He learned that until he could best her in wits and battle, she would always be Alpha bitch.
"Tis' one does no' understand why it is tha' we must take on human transportation."
He could only laugh. "What, you don't like my car Darth?" he snickered more at his friends discomfort.
"Tis' not that I don't like ye's vehicle, tis' just that I don't like human transportation. I'm use to flying my friend…or running at top speed through the trees, feeling –free." He looked out the window with a face of gloom. 'Lady Bella did say that thou were like his father with tis' love of cars.'
He knew Darth wasn't fond of being confined. When they were nine, Darth had been kidnapped during an uproar in the supernatural world. His mother had just been crowned Queen.
The kidnappers believing that Darth had been him, took Darth and locked him in a small cell where he was subjected to constant torture and being covered in his own filth. It was not something a child should ever go through.
The kingdom was at peace with this because he, being the heir was safe. But his mother, his normal calm docile mother, was anything but calm. Darth was like her own child in her eyes, when his mother was killed protecting their kingdom, Bella had taken him in as her own and raised him as his equal in every way. For Darth to be taken and harmed, set her very being a flame.
When Bella found Darth near the brink of death lying in his own filth, she went mad. Her eyes turned pure raven, her hair flew about her as the wind grew wild around her. The sky darkened and lightening lite the sky like the world was ending. He knew then why his mother was queen…because she was the epitome of power, she breathed it, she made it, and she was power.
His mother was ruthless in the way she made them pay. She killed them slowly relishing in their blood and insides being slowly torn from their very bodies, ripping body part after body part from those beings that were the undead. He could distinctly remember her strangling one individual with his own intestines as he also choked on his own blood. She did all this with a sadistic smile upon her face.
He'd seen his grandfather kill countless times; it was something heir's had to witness. So, this was not so different, even though he was supposed to be safely tucked away in the palace, instead of secretly following his mother.
Once she retrieved Darth she healed him and held him to her like a small babe needing reassurance from its mother. He never felt so scared in his life of his mother… and he never respected her more in that moment, because he knew that had been the love of a mother who'd do anything to ensure her child's safety, even one that was not even her own by blood, but by heart.
"I'm sorry Darth. I know how much you detest having to be confined. But, we are soon to arrive in Forks, and I want to keep up the human disguise. I don't want to alert my father by being suspicious. Small towns talk. How would it look if we showed up out of nowhere, with no transportation, but walking right out of the woods and into a house my mother spent her 'human' years in?"
"Point taken and quite out of place, I must say. Tis' one hates being questioned." He sneered as he glowered with his fangs on display.
"You humor me Darth. This should be quite an entertaining experience." He laughed
'Entertaining indeed' Darth thought as he saw the Welcome to Forks sign up ahead.
"Lady Bella your sons have arrived at their destination. What would you have me do my lady" The young woman before her asked.
"Ali I know that you will ensure my sons' safety. You have been my friend and loyal companion for many years. I do not doubt that if anything were to happen that Darth would not call upon me, he has always been loyal to not only Andreas, but to me as well. Even if he does secretly think that I'm a bitch who needs a good fucking-"
"My Lady!" Ali yelled astounded.
Bella released a bell of laughter. "Everyone thinks it… you cannot deny that. Even my own son feels I should get laid…though the very thought may have brought a disgusted look to his face when he said it, however it did brought a humorous smile to mine he is sooo like his father." Bella sighed before standing.
"Ali please stand in my place as their mother. Jacob and others will need more convincing than what they plan to give. And besides, those two can't cook to save their own lives and I refuse to have them chowing down on take-out all the damn time."
Ali smiled at her lady's concern for her two boys. "Yes, my lady I will not fail you." She smiled as she disappeared before Bella's eyes.
"I see you are still letting others do your dirty work while you hide behind them and pull the strings."
Bella's smile instantly contorted into a sour frown.
"Believe what you want father. I'm just looking out for my son and making sure the consequences aren't as harsh as we know they would be if I let him do things his way." Bella sneered as she walked towards the study's doors.
"This could have all been avoided if you had just told him what he needed to fucking know! His father knew of him, but still threw you out like you were nothing, but trash! Yet, you continued to let him believe that you were the fucking bad guy by letting him think you had not told that damned boy! He will be angry and you will be force into submission upon his anger!" He growled at her as his eyes began to darken into a deep shade of red.
"You may think him able to make his mother submit, but you know nothing! I betrayed him by keeping that bit of information to myself, yes, I will admit to that and I will face the consequences that will come from my stubbornness to act in the matter!" She yelled and turned away gracefully with her head held high and silk skirt strewn out behind her.
"Your fucking mistakes keep piling up Isabella! When will you stop running and regretting, and face your damn problems like the damn woman you make everyone think you to be!" He yelled in frustration.
Bella would not answer, why…when they both knew the answer.
