Story so far:

And as the only female vampire ever born, not initiated, she is surrounded by danger on all sides- from other vampire tribes who want to take her blood into their lineage, and from the bounty hunters who are set on destroying her and her family. After she is kidnapped and her elder brother Nicholas and best friend Lucy go to save her, Solange becomes a vampire. Her mother now being the vampire queen things are very different, and since having Isabeau join in as Solange's protectors, her household has become increasingly crowded, with the occasional disappearance from Marcus and Duncan. Now a year has passed and things have seemingly calmed down at the house hold and with no word from Montmartre, Solange thinks that she has her old life back.

Story part 1:

It's been nearly a year since Isabeau and Logan met, fell in love, and almost destroyed Montmartre, and since Nicholas and Lucy have been dating. But now that Nicholas cannot keep himself away from Lucy, will he be putting her in more danger, or are his intentions good? And now's she made her mark on Montmartre, she must now face the ultimate test by confronting the evil lord who tried to make her best friend his.

That's if she can keep away the vampires who are now seemingly after her blood, who are also now seemingly after her!

Story:


Prologue

Lucy

Friday, late evening

Helena and Liam's ball at the palace isn't much fun when there are more vampire's than you could poke a stick at, all looking at you like a steak in a dress. I was just glad Nicholas stayed by me the entire night, like he was super glued to my hip. I tried to dance, but slow dancing isn't one of my strong points when I'm used to dancing like a loon at night clubs. Solange and I ,despite being taught how to slow dance by her obnoxious brothers, still danced like we were at a night club, even when the choice of music is a violin and piano duet of The Prayer. Helena and Liam couldn't help but laugh when me and Solange jazz handed our way past most of the vamps in the audience until Nicholas scowled at me.

"What do you think you're doing? We practiced slow dancing for almost three weeks!" says Nicholas sounding disappointed. I smirked.

"Yeah, but you were the one who couldn't keep your hands off my ass Nicky!" I say narrowing my eyes. He blushed- well if vampires could that is.

"Humph… whatever" says Nicholas, I could tell he was sulking. I held out my hand hoping I could make him smile by tripping over my long dress or stumbling in my heels as we walked into the middle of the ball room. He smirked and grabbed my hand and pulls me into him.

"I love your hair long…" Nicholas whispers in my ear. I grew my hair out and now have little ringlets on the bottom of my hair. My dress was black and was very long it dragged on the floor a bit and had to pick it up constantly.

"I love you…" I whispered as we danced. His check felt hotter, as he pressed it against my face.

"I love you too" he kisses my forehead gently. He spins me around, until I'm almost dizzy.

"Whoa, watch it there, I don't wanna fall over!" I say grabbing on his neck to stabilize myself.

"Hehe, your heals are huge Luc, how you haven't fallen over yet I'll never know!" Quinn gushes.

"That's because I've pain stakingly walked in them for weeks, so I could get used to them!" I yelled. Quinn laughed and laughed until a cute looking vampire walked past him and all his attention went to her butt. I sighed deeply. "You're brother has the worst attention span I've ever seen!" I say whispering into Nicholas's ear.

"You should've seen him when he saw you walking into the room in your dress, he was talking to Logan and dad and then stopped mid sentence just to look at you!" says Nicholas sounding jealous. I smirked.

"Jealous much? But just think you're the only one that's getting to dance with me!" I say seductively. Well I tried to sound seductive but I think I sounded like heavy whisper more than anything.

"Heh, I guess…"

I tried not to sound so pissed off by that comment.

"What? Why? Aren't you the only one that is going to dance with me?" I ask trying not to sound so angry. He looks a little taken back.

"No it's just coz Sebastian, Marcus and Duncan wanted to dance with you as well. Dad even wants to dance with you!" He sounded really surprised by the last one. As was I for that matter.

"R-really?" I ask trying not to sound so happy. Solange's three older brothers never really paid me any mind to be honest. He scowls at me. "What? I'm just kinda happy that's all!"

As the song comes to an end Nicholas, pushes me into Marcus for the next song. As I look up I hadn't realized Marcus was so gorgeous. I mean all of the Drake boy's were all hot, but Marcus's face was softer than the rest of them. His eyes were like looking into dark pools of water, swirling around. I try not to get lost in his eyes but they're so complex like there's something behind them. Something dark, lonely.

Whoa… getting too poetic even for my standards…

I glance over at Nicholas who's trying not to look like he cares as Marcus puts his hands on my hip and on the small of my back pulling me into his broad chest. I smirk.

"Jealous isn't he?" says Marcus after a while. I look up to see him smile. It's gentle, and kind. I hadn't realized it before but apart from Quinn, Nicholas, Logan, Connor and Sebastian, Marcus and Duncan have never really been around much. And I realized that whenever Nicholas annoyed me or Solange either Marcus or Duncan always put him in his place. I smile back not noticing Duncan behind me as he pulls me away from Marcus.

"My turn…" Duncan says in a droning tone.

"Hey, Duncan. That's my blood don't touch my food!" says Marcus in the same low droning tone. I freeze.

"WHAT?"

I was about to say but Nicholas says it first. "Marcus what the hell do you think your saying?" Marcus and Duncan smirk.

"I was joking…" says Marcus pulling me into his chest.

"Humph…" Nicholas keeps an eye on me as I blush slightly. "We need to talk; I need her for a moment!" Nicholas grabs my wrist and drags me outside onto the balcony. It's a clear night, no clouds just the soft breeze, the sound of crickets and the soft smell of roses and jasmine.

"So wha-" Nicholas doesn't even let me finish my sentence before bringing his lips over mine. He kisses me hard and then softly flicks his tongue at mine. My brain couldn't think anymore, and I just fell into him like warm honey, funny coz he tasted like honey as well. I paused and tried to think about it but the feel of his tongue on mine completely made my mind blank again. When he finished and I finally felt my body again, I realized that he had grabbed my butt and pushed me up slightly on the balcony bench.

"N-Nicholas? What did you wanna talk to me about before you kissed me? Or was that what you wanted to talk about?" I ask. My tongue feels swollen and my lips feel numb.

"I just really needed to do that. I've been trying to tell you something so I thought I'd just try using my body to tell you!" Nicholas isn't making much sense until, I realize what he wants to do. All ability to think left me, and I started to feel hot all over.

"What do you mean?" I say blushing like a loon. He looks directly into my eyes, which makes me blush even more.

"I mean…" before he tells me Solange and Kieran fallout from a bush underneath us.

"Ow, pfft haha you stepped on my foot you retard!" I heard Solange try and whisper.

She was drunk I could tell.

"Well, it's your fault for putting your hands down my pants!" says Kieran. I could feel Nicholas's heat rise as we heard them. I felt daggers at the back of my head as I tried to get a better look, and also when I realized Kieran had his pants half way down his legs.

I gasped, as I saw Nicholas jump over the balcony and behind Solange who jumped out of her skin.

"Jeez Nicky! You scared me!" says Solange holding her chest while laughing.

"Does mom know you've been drinking?" asks Nicholas acting all serious. He looks over at Kieran. "And what the hell do you think you're doing with your pants half way down your legs?"

"What's with you Nicholas? Just because you won't sleep with your girlfriend doesn't mean anyone else shouldn't!" says Kieran smirking.

That was a direct hit. Although it pissed me off as well that he brought it up he was right…

Nicholas hasn't even touched me like that until just now when he touched my butt. But even that's not enough for me lately.

"That's not true Kieran!" I yell down from the balcony. I take my shoes off and jump down to a tree and climb down. I smile. I feel kinda like a monkey!

I stand next to Nicholas who also seems taken back by my sudden involvement.

"Huh? You mean you two have done it?" asks Kieran. I blush.

"What? No all I meant was-" Nicholas puts his hand over my mouth. Oops now I knew I was in trouble.

"Shut. Up." Nicholas spits. I cringe, but I'm more angry than scared. That's it I've had enough of this!

I pull his hand away.

"Kieran's right you know, just because you don't even look at me that way doesn't mean him and Solange shouldn't be getting any!" I say sounding as pissed off as I could. I shoot him a look. "I'll be inside. Don't bother coming after me!" I left him to deal with the two drunken idiots. There is no way I'm gunna get any now! But he had it coming! He can't not do that and expect me to go along with it! I'm a girl who needs to be loved!

Stupid jerk!


Nicholas

Stupid idiot! I was trying to protect her! I don't know what'll happen if we do… that. Damn it! Damn her!

"Nicky? You should go after her anyway!" shouts Solange. She drooling, and was obviously drunk. I could smell the blood red wine on her breath.

"Why should I? She told me not to!" I say trying not to sound upset. Solange just looked on and then dropped her gaze to the floor.

"I don't know why…" says Solange. I felt like something had hit me in the back.

"*sigh*… Solange don't say something like that! Your boyfriend's stupidity is contagious! And I don't wanna catch it!"

"You love her!" she finally says. I look at her. "You love Lucy veeery much! And she loves you too!" She starts smiling like an idiot.

"Yeah, but I just don't want to sleep with her yet!" I cover my mouth. I sooo didn't mean to say that! Oh shit! She's never gunna let me live it down! She seems confused. She's drunk she won't remember! "I don't know what'll happen if I do! I'm a lot stronger than her, and I don't want to hurt her!"

Solange nods like a nodding dog. Kieran is already passed out on the ground under her feet.

"You know-" Solange says after a while. "- she's scared of being broken in half!"

"What? How can she be-" I stop. Wait maybe that can happen? I'm so much stronger than her I might make the impossible. Possible!

"But even so!" I look back at Solange. "She still wants to try at least!" Solange yawns and picks up Kieran and slings him over her shoulder. "I'm going to bed! Don't waste the night scowling!" I wait until they're out of sight before drop to the ground. I lean back and look up at the stars.

"Love huh?" I remember what Solange had said before she left. "She still wants to try huh?" I sit up and look at the ground. She still wants to try even though she's scared of being broken in half? Heh silly you can't be broken in half. But still… even if she knows I could hurt her…? I get up and walk after Lucy.

I walk into the ball room, and see Lucy sitting in my mum's throne. She looks so tiny against the harsh black velvet seat cushions. As I walk over her heart beat is weak and I can smell blood. I run up to her and pick up her fragile body. There's glass in her hand where's she's gripped the wine glass to hard. She smells of lemonade and cherry. The smell of blood attracts unwanted attention. So I growl at the other vamps and race up to my room. I put her on the bed and start to get undressed because her blood got on my shirt and the smell was intoxicating. I could hear her muttering something. I put my ear next her mouth and hear the words 'Nicholas'. My body starts to feel warm all over. Like something is taking over my body. Feelings and sensations start to overwhelm me and I can't control myself anymore. She starts to move and opens her eyes. She gets up on her bad hand and cringes, as soon as she sees where she is, and in what state I'm in I was just waiting for her to freak out. But instead she smiles.

"You did come after me!" She blushes even more and I get a sudden urge to kiss her. I put my hand on her face and caress her cheek down her neck. She shivers. I kiss her gently, again and again and then kiss her harder more urgently than before. I can feel the warmth of her body against mine. The heat from her arms, her lips and legs, I can feel them pressing against me, her arms around my neck, her legs wrapped around my hips, everything. I become completely entranced in her every touch. I start to unzip her dress at the back until I can feel the skin on the bottom of her back. I could feel her cheeks getting hotter. I let her dress fall slightly at the front, not moving my eyes from hers. She pulls it down the rest of the way and I feel her silken skin through my shirt, I can smell her hair as we move together, and intertwine in the warmth of the bed and each other. As I fall back her black hair cascades around us, as we kiss, and move our bodies together.

We get interrupted by the sound of screams, crashing and the sound of swords crashing together. I stop and get up not even noticing Lucy had fallen off the bed. The blanket covered most of her body but she just sits there limp. She smirks slightly and gets up pulling her dress up, doesn't even bother to zip it up and walks into the bathroom. I walk over.

"H-hey Lucy? I'm sorry I pushed you off like that!" I feel really bad and I feel even more embarrassed that I could do something like that. She opens the door. Her hair is slightly wet as it drips down her face, neck and arms.

"It's okay! You should go down stairs there might be something wrong!" says Lucy worryingly.

"You stay here missy and dont even think about moving from here!" I say angrily. Maybe even too angrily than i meant too she seems taken back but smiles softly. She nods.

I nod but I had to kiss her forehead. She smiles.

I run off towards the shouting and clashing.


Lucy

"Stupid idiot!" I say under my breath as he runs out of the room. How dare he take advantage of me when I'm in a half sleep state. And someone spiked my drink! Grrrr that makes me sooo mad!

I punch the wall hand, not realizing that it's my bad hand. I walk down the hall into the guest room and take off my dress. Even if he told me to stay in his room, theres no way i am in this! I had to splash my face with cold water before walking out of the barthroom, i was blushing so much. I manage to get into my skirt until I feel eyes on me. I get dressed quickly pretending I didn't know and pull my top over my head before I could feel a hand grab onto my hip. It clenches tight on my hip and I can feel blood dripping down my leg. I turn around to see the teeth of a Hel-Blar. I try to scream but I can't. My voice won't come out. I feel tears streaming down my face burning as they travel down my neck onto my shirt. I can smell its breath as it touches my face. With every exhale I can smell dried blood and something else that I can't even describe. I can feel it's other hand clawing into my chest and the feel of the breeze outside on my legs. I shiver only just as I hear footstep's up the hall way. Another Hel-Blar comes from the shadows and runs out into the hallway. I can hear bones snapping, blood dripping and the sounds of Logan, Connor and Marcus's voices.

"Lucy?" scream's Solange. Sounds like she isn't drunk anymore! I smirk until I hear Nicholas's voice as well.

"Lucy?" Nicholas yells. I can hear him crawling, hitting, and kicking his way through the Hel-Blar. The Hel-Blar that's holding me picks me up and slings me over its shoulder. I can't even move my body or shout or anything. My mind is completely blank. I can see the room getting dimmer with every second that passes. The last thing I see is Nicholas's body being flung into the room under the Hel-Blar that is holding me. He looks up and me, but all I can do is cry and be motionless. I didn't even close my eyes, and they still went dark. Everything I knew was disappearing. It was only darkness. It felt as though I was dying. Maybe I was. Maybe everything that had happened up until this point was all for nothing. If I die now, Nicholas, Solange, mom, dad. Everyone in my life, what will happen to them? Will they get over me? Will they cry for me?

I don't want them to be sad. I don't want my best friend to cry over me. Everything I did. It was for her.


Nicholas

Lucy… her eyes just went dim. Like there was no life behind them. No she couldn't be! There's no way she could be dead!

"LUCY!" I yell. But she just won't respond. Even her tears have stopped.

The Hel-Blar runs out of the window onto the ground and vanishes before the guards could get them. They took Lucy's body with them. The smell of her blood is stained in my mind, just as it is on the carpet. Logan gets me up but I can't help but fall back onto the ground. Kieran runs in just as Solange collapses.

"Solange!" shouts Kieran as he catches her. "What the hell happened?"

"Sh-she's gone! They took her! Lucy! LUCY! SHE'S GONE! THEY TOOK HER AWAY FROM ME!" screams Solange. Kieran cradles her body in his arms.

"Solange! It's okay we'll get her back!" says Dad.

"Liam, I can't feel her heart beat! And I couldn't when we entered the room either…" says mom. It feels as though someone's just stabbed my heart. I like I'm about to turn into dust.

"That's not true!" I yell. I'm trying hard not to cry. Lucy wouldn't forgive me if I did, she thinks it's a sign of weakness. "She's still alive! I can feel it! I know she is!"

"How? How can you possibly know Nicholas! Lucy didn't have a heartbeat when we came in or before that even!" shouts Solange. She grabs my shirt and holds me up against the wall.

"Because she was drugged!" I say. Solange's eyes widen.

"What? How? Who could've done that?" says Solange confused.

"Listen to me. Everyone." Mom gets everyone into the lounge room. I sit down because my limbs are shaking.

"Okay, now everyone. We all know that Montmartre is after Sol don't we. Well since Lucy and Nicholas went to save her, Montmartre has now had an interest it Lucy!" says Mom.

"What? You mean she's been targeted by Montmartre since then?" I say shocked.

"Yes, but it doesn't stop there. Since she's been involved in this family, we all know how hard it's been to control ourselves around her. And I have something else to tell you as well, which you may not like even more… Lucy went to a night club against our wishes with friends from school, and on her way back was attacked by level X vampires!" says Mom.

"What? X vampires? I thought they were only myth!" says Kieran.

"No their quite real, anyway the truth of the matter is, that they bit Lucy numerous times, and later on were killed by other vampires, but Lucy's scent was still on them, and now crave her blood. Montmartre put a bounty on Lucy, to get her blood for himself. Lucy is also the reincarnation of Madame Elphina… the original vampire!" I can't even breathe. Madame Elphina, the world's most frightening vampire, is Lucy?

"How can Lucy be Madame Elphina?" asks Quinn from beneath a blanket. "I mean sure Luc can be scary and is probably more blood thirsty than Solange will ever be, but come on? Lucy? Lovable, cute sexy Lucy?" I kick Quinn hard in the chest. That'll probably keep him quiet for a while. "Watch it little brother!"

Or maybe not…


Oooohhhhhhh who could this Madame Elphina be? And what does Montmartre want with our poor Lucy? Cliffhanger! Lolz ^^
