The Truth about Her Past

Part B

Recap

"So…are you ready for the truth Alexis?" he asked as he made no intention to move until he got her answer. Alexis looked up at him then shift to David and then back to him.

"Bring it on Pops," she said as she smiled evilly and then laid her head on David slap and looked up into his "I can't believe u just did that look,". She smiled and felt happier when David got fully on the bed. Alexis put her head back on his lap and curled up like a kitten.

Story

David looked down at Alexis with wide eyed and then got on the bed fully and then watched as Alexis curled up like a kitten as she lay her head on his lap. Her father, the King, was about to tell her the truth about her past. Hope she can handle it, he thought as he too got prepared to listen also.

"So what do you want to here first Alexis?" he asked as he sat on the chair and watched her carefully. He wanted to see every reaction as he told her the truth. Alexis looked up at him and pondered for a while.

"Well. First of all how did you and my mother meet?" she asked and saw him flinch at the mother part.

"Well I forest met your mother when I was out for a walk one night. I had just fed and was just enjoying the moons glow. And obviously so was your mother because she was in the park at the same time as I was. She was just sitting there with a far away look to her," he said as he too had a far away look in his eyes right now. "It was cold out and so she was wearing a pair of blue jeans and a whiter sweater with black boots on. Her hair was braided down to her waist and had a scrunchie on the end to keep it in place." He said and smiled to himself. Alexis watched him and she could see a glint of sadness in his eyes.

"Continue," she said as she wanted to finish hearing the rest of the story.

"Well, I walked up to her and sat down on the bench that she was sitting on. She didn't seem to notice me and that was just well because I was looking upon her. It wasn't till a loose hair escaped from her braid and I tucked it behind her ear did she notice me then. I had startled her but she smiled none the less at me. And that smile melted my heart." He said as he smiled and then smiled. "We talked that whole night until she yawned and then stood up to go home. When she was about to walk off after she had said bye I stopped her and asked if she could meet me here again the next night. She looked skeptical for a while but then agreed. She walked off and then I left also. The next night we met each other at the same park and then we talked again while strolling through the park.

Then suddenly while we were engrossed in our talk we didn't notice that a group of hoodlums had crept up on us without my knowing. When I did it was too late. They grabbed your mother and held her away from me. They tried to threaten me with her life if I didn't… "Give them what I had"…I think was their saying." He said as he shifted uncomfortably in his chair. "I looked at your mother who was looking scared and then I became furious. I wouldn't let anything or anyone scare or harm her at that point. So then I attacked them and that night was the night your mother found out that I was a vampire." He said and then looked back at Alexis and David together.

"What did she do? Did she run screaming? What?" she asked as she was caught up in the story and then sot up off of David (who was looking at her now) and then sat up on the bed.

"She didn't do anything," he said as he once again had the far away look into his eyes. "She just looked at me in horror and then ran to e. Mind me now, I thought that she would have been scared at me and then ran for her life and not want to see me again. But she was just scared for my safety and hers at the time." He said. "I told her what I was and that I would understand if she didn't want to see me again, even though that I wasn't though. But she told me to stop acting ridiculous and stupid. That was the first time that anyone has ever said those two thins in the same sentence. I looked at her and just laughed." He said. "But she laughed with me and then we continued with our relationship." He said happily.

"She of course lived with me and grew accustomed to the rest of the vampire world. She accepted me for whom and what I was and didn't care." He said. "Then one night when I was in the library she burst through the door all happy and was jumping up and down. I got up fat thinking that something bad had happen to her because she was in tears. I ran to her and caught her. She looked up at me and said that she was pregnant. I was stunned because it was impossible for a human to be pregnant by a vampire unless you already a vampire. That was what the legends had said but I had my doubts of already. And your mother proved that, that day. So nine months came and when she was having you we were under attack." He said and she could see a fire that wasn't there before burning up.

"My soldiers held them off as well as they could but didn't make it. You had just uttered your first cry when they burst into the room where I, your mother, you, the nurse, and the doctor were. One by one they killed them. I held them off and swore to do anything to protect you and her. They had some sort of device and caught me in a bind hold. They went to your mother and then slit her throat right in front of me," he said as a blood tear rolled down his cheeks. By now Alexis was crying her heart out. David acted fast and gathered her into his arms and held her close to his heart. She buried her face in the crook of his neck and continued to cry.

"Then after killing your mother they went after you. And that was what I couldn't take. Before your mother died I looked into her and she whispered into my mind to save and protect you. SO when they were creeping up on you and then that was when I was angry to the point of killing everything in sight. My anger gave me the strength to escape from the treturious thing and then I slaughtered every last one of them in sight. You were all that was left of my love Alexandra." He said as he wiped the tears away from his eyes. "I made sure that everything was alright and then I immediately took you out of the castle and far away from it. I had spent a year with you and my love for you grew and grew. You were the spitting image of Alexandra. But some how they found me and so out of fearfulness of you I escaped with your sleeping form in my arms.

I found a house with two old peoples in it and then knocked on their door. I told them about my situation and asked for them to keep you safe and sound until I could come back for you." He said looking at her. Alexis had stopped crying and was hic-upping. David had tried to get up to go get her some water but she just wouldn't let go of him. He was her comfort and she needed that right now. David stayed in place and tightened his grip on her. "They agreed to take you in and then with a last kiss upon your forehead I left and drove the vampire hunters away from you to keep you safe and alive. I came to see and be with you time and time again until they had died and then you were sent to some other old relative of theirs. I couldn't find you anywhere. So the years went by and then I happen to meet David one day out feeding and then I asked him to help me look for a girl. And I gave him your mother's picture and said you would look something like this." He said.

"Then when he did find you he said that he had you but had to work on calming you down first before you saw me." He said and that was when Alexis looked up at David with a mischievous grin and she received one back towards him as he sent her and intimate image of her underneath him and him doing something to make her scream. Alexis blushed completely and David chuckled to himself. She looked down and when she had her blush under control she looked up back at her father who was looking at her and then she blushed all over again. She cleared her throat and was prepared to talk when they were interrupted by a knock on the door. Alexis told whoever it was to come in and they did.

"I'm sorry to interrupt you your highness but the leaders of the other nations have need of you and master David," the servant said. The king nodded his head in acknowledgement and then the servant left closing the door behind him.

"Seems we have to go David," he said as he got up. "Meet me there in 10 minutes and Alexis," he said as he turned around to look at her from the open door, "We'll finish this when we are done," he said as he left and closed the door behind him. Alexis looked up at David and then hid her face in the crook of his neck once again and then began to cry once again. It wasn't soft lady like cries but cries that were wrenched out of her from deep inside. Cries of missing parents, heartache, and pain. He hugged her tightly to him and then lay down on the bed with her with him. He stroked her hair in a comforting way.

After a while Alexis fell asleep crying in David's arms. David looked down at her lying there in his arms peacefully. She looked so right there and then he touched her and had a vision that shocked him to death. He removed his hand away and looked down at her sleeping face and then bent down to lay a kiss on her forehead. He picked her up and then pulled back the cover and laid her down. He pulled the cover back up and around her and then left to meet the king and tell him of what he saw. He securely locked the door behind him and made his way to the office.

Upon entering David noticed all the rulers of their own nations sitting in a round table talking about what to do. He went and stood beside his king upon the king seeing him and the look on his face. He bent down and was about to tell him when they heard an explosion, glass breaking, and a scream breaking out. Alexis! They both looked at each other as they thought the same thing and ran off in the direction to Alexis's room. David got there first and then opened the door.

What they saw was unbelievable. They saw…
