3rd POV.
She still had the same jade eyes as centuries ago. There was anger in them and Rose understood why. They'd been sisters, two peas in a pod... Then Rose got married. Lissa's marriage had been arranged with Adrian, since Lissa was born; she never had the choice like Rose had.
Ever since Rose was 10, she dreamt of being queen. Of course, in the small town they lived in, there was no such thing. Then she turned 15, everyone loved her, everyone obeyed her. She was smart, she knew what she was doing... and soon enough she built her kingdom.
Christian and her got married, having a son almost immediately. She was busy being queen, that by the age of 20, she was already pregnant, with Dimitri's child. She had one last daughter with Christian before her brother found out about everything.
When she died she was barely 35. Lissa had disobeyed her orders and had gone back to town every once in a while, feeding Adrian the truth... or half of it.
And now here she was...
With mixed feelings.
Both girls, actually. They wanted revenge, they were angry, but they loved each other.
Mia stepped in, "Please,we have other things to deal with, say like Strigoi."
This seemed to catch their attention. Rose sighed, setting her anger aside. Lissa was part of the council, and as much as Rose wanted her out of her sight, it was impossible. Adrian was called back in, and Rose decided to make a speech.
"Well, we all make mistakes. I know I've done many of them, but I guess that's going to have to be out aside. We have a bigger problem to deal with. Strigoi... Explain." She took a seat next to Mia, in a black couch.
The rest of the vampires looked at each other, and Dimitri stepped in.
"The first Strigoi was one hundred years after your...death."
He hesitated and Rose was getting impatient. "Well, who was it?" he looked away from her.
"Our son."
The two words were like a punch to the gut. She was left breathless, and in pain. How...?
"No." That one word held an immense amount of pain. She was in denial. Dimitri got in his knees to her, grabbed her face, as if it were fragile, in between his hands, and held it in front of his.
"I'm sorry," he understood her pain. few tears leaked out of her eyes. "Why?" such a small word, holding so much pain.
"He was angry. There was so much anger in him, because of your death. He was in denial, and when your father took over, it got worse. He would never listen to anything he said, by the time he rebelled I was already born... I saw it. Te anger, resentment, pain, at losing you. At the curse you had placed upon your people, on him."
Tears were threatening to come out of his eyes too. "Oh, God, Eros." More guilt was added on her shoulders. As if saying his name, she seemed to remember that her other two children were alive.
"What about Poseidon and Aura?" her eyes were focused on Christian. Christian's eyes closed. "Eros... He put them against your father, too. They were killed. We don't know if they, too, reincarnated."
She closed her eyes, taking in a deep breath, concentrating on her own heartbeat. Reaching out to her children...
They were here.
At least Aura and Poseidon. Aura was closest to her, while her son, wasn't that far away either. She opened her eyes, and they searched the room.
They rested on Aura first. She was blonde, with blue, bright eyes. She was like a doll.
Poseidon was, a redheaded, and blue, vibrant, eyes.
At the same moment, they recognized their mother. But just as she was to say something, there was an explosion a mile away from them. Rose looked at Dimitri; Eros was here. And he was not alone. There was another explosion, this one closer, and the vampire guards seemed to wake up. They threw themselves at her, covering her body. As other guards threw themselves at the royals.
She didn't care about that.
Her daughter was left unprotected. She screamed out at her son, "Poseidon!" his head whipped her direction, his soul recognizing his name and mother's voice. He was at the front layer of protection, while Rose was in the middle. "Aura! Your sister!" she begged him.
Mason looked at the blonde girl in the middle of the room, covering herself, from the other explosions. He ran at her full speed, carried her into his arms, and ran the ten feet back to the circle. Despite the guards protests, he pushed past them, setting the girl, next to his mother.
He was about to leave, when rose pulled at his arm, "Stay." He was about to protest when she said,"As your queen and mother, Mason." He seemed torn, his job was to be a guardian. He nodded his head.
"Mia? Are you alright?" The girl was shaken, but nodded her head. Chritian and Dimitri joined them, taking a place next to them, as they were crouched down.
There was one last explosion, this one broke the door to the room they were in. Rose took a deep breath, standing up.
"What are you doing?" Dimitri asked her, as Mason stopped her from going anywhere.
"To fix everything," she whispered. She walked past the guards, who let her by, since Mason was in front of her.
For the first time in centuries she saw her illegitimate son. He looked everything like his father had centuries ago.
"Eros," she whispered.
The vampire stared at her.
Her heart lurched, "Mom?"
Flashback (Rose is 14 years old.)
3rd POV
She walked down the road, leading to the forest. She was by herself, something that a young girl her age shouldn't do. She sighed and picked a tree branch. At such a young age, she knew what she wanted, and she was working to get it, too. That's how smart she truly was.
She walked to the middle of the forest, where a clearing laid. She sat down on a big, gray rock, near by, and rested. She put her head in her hands, beginning to drift off.
"If you plan on staying her, you'll never be able to become who you want to be."
The voice made her head snapped up. She stared at the yellow eyes of a woman, who was holding a cobra.
Any other person would have been afraid, but not her. She was mesmerized by the animal, actually.
She'd seen the woman around, the town believed she was a witch, but left her alone. Her mother, Hera, who had red hair, was a descendant of witches... But she had cast her family aside.
"Who are you?" Aphrodite asked the older lady. The lady smiled at her, showing her yellow teeth.
"You're grandmother, child," she said, honestly. Aphrodite was not surprised, she was however, curious.
"Why has my mother not told me anything?"
"She's embarrassed of our ancestors," the words hurt the old woman, as she said them.
Aphrodite didn't say anything.
"I wouldn't," she finally said. The old woman nodded, "I know, child."
She sighed, standing up, "I have got to go. I have some planning to do."
"I know how to help you."
"Who said I needed any help?" The woman chuckled.
"Let the Cobra bite you, let the venom travel through your veins, and you shall have everything you need," she set the cobra on the rock, disappearing. Aphrodite searched for the woman, but she was no where to be found.
She crouched down, so she was leveled with the cobra. It's tongue slithered out, and lashed out at her neck. She jumped back, crying out in pain. She fell to the floor, the venom sinking in, as she withered in pain, on the ground.
She arched back, her eyes closing, and upon waking an hour later, the cobra lay on her, her eyes meeting the eyes of the cobra,
Her eyes went from green to a yellow.
She was called the Cobra Queen.
Well, I made up the whole Cobra thing ^.^ lol xD
Well umm review and let me know if you have any questions.
