Chapter 1
Previously
I thought to myself 'He has red eyes and fangs like me. Could this vampire thing be also a monster that the humans call me? so I'm the same'I looked at him and said "I think I am, my name is Lark Alfen. What's yours?" The boy looked at me for a minute. Then, with a smile on his face, he said "My name is...
"Setz. What's a pure-blood vampire like you doing here?" 'Pure-blood? What's that is that what he is?' I thought. "I was born here. I've lived here all my life but I hate it here. I'm running away." The boy looked at me with a funny look on his face "What are those marks on your face, I've never seen anyone with them before?" I turned away, "I don't know. I was born with them along with my pale skin. I don't want to talk about it, I got made fun of a lot because of both." He looked as if he was thinking. Then he said "I overheard my father say that vampires use to live here, your parents must have been vampires that lived here. If you're running away, why not come with me? Only vampires live in my world." I didn't even have to think about my answer. "OK let's go" I said eagerly getting up.
We walked into the house. "So do I have to do like dishes and stuff?" I asked Setz. He looked at me like I had two heads. "No I have maids and servants that will take care of that, you can just relax." He opened a door filled with stairs every which way and a door at the top but I accidentally tripped and the last thing I saw and heard was the cold step and Setz calling my name in horror!
When I awoke I was in a bed. When I walked outside my stomach wasn't feeling well. I looked up and the sky was red and I just started to run but before I knew it, it was too late I fell off a cliff and I blacked out again. I woke up again in the bed. I slowly looked around and saw a young woman in her early 30's. She turned around. "Oh, you're awake." I noticed right away she had red eyes like me, but they had a little pink in them but all the same they were like mine. The next thing I knew she was in my face, "Boy, by any chance are you from the outer world? Your blood smells like a human. I haven't smelled that in years." I looked confused, "Outer...world, what's that?" She then moved back with a startled and somewhat terrified look on her face.
Angela's POV
What is this? This child has pureblooded eyes, no, not just that, he has baby fangs growing and I've seen manna inside him too. But putting those things aside, the most confusing and terrifying thing about this child is he definitely has human blood in his body yet his skin is pale. Only pureblooded first generation vampires have that skin color and it's not supposed to be hereditary. And those tribal marks. Only one vampire has those but it's impossible, just what is…? It is not unheard of, of humans and vampire's fornicating in the past because the races could not produce but they stopped doing that hundreds of years ago. And the vampire with those markings would never think of doing any of that! He hates humans, so then how? I looked at the child, and thought to myself 'No, it can't be it's never happened in all of existence.' Could this child be the first child born of the broken contract in existence?
