Introduction
Castle is not what he seems. He is not…human. Neither is his family. When Kate is kidnapped and turned to be what he is Castle knows this means war. As a Vampires Mate are scared and the Mates Vampire who finds their Mate harmed can take revenge if it under the right conditions. Can Castle help Kate adjust to this life? And what about who took her?...
Chapter .1.
Castle sighed as he sipped his glass. Things were getting difficult in him keeping his secret, his families secret, well secret.
Castle's kind had been in hiding since their creation. Several millennia's ago. Nobody was sure about the date. Even those in his kind who were called 'Ancients'. And where on the Council like his Mother.
People had been hunting his kind since the beginning. That was why Castle never told his friends about what he was. How could he begin to explain? Even to his supposed Soulmate the beautiful Detective Katherine Beckett.
His kind only had one Soulmate in their long lifetime of their eternity if they were lucky to make it to Ancient that is. And Castle had finally out his. But she was mortal and unlikely wanted to be what he was. She had friends and family. Castle couldn't turn them all. It was unlikely the High Council would agree to that.
What Castle was, was a creature everyone thought off as evil and creatures of the night. Which was far from the truth.
He was a vampire. There were Ten Different Species of vampires walking the earth. He was a Blood Vampire, born as one, one off the top three strongest vampires.
So Yes he drank blood which he was going now. But he didn't have to kill for blood. He got his blood from some vampires working in the morgues. The only time he needed fresh blood was when he was injured. And even then he still didn't kill them. His kind could take blood from a human and seal the wound like it was never then and send the human on his or her way. Not knowing they had given blood to a vampire.
He didn't have red eyes or sun sensitivity. All his sub-species of vampires eyes were normal. And the sun only barely effected young vampires. Something he wasn't. And he wasn't about to say his age. It was a hidden secret in the Vampire World, a Vampires age. The only ones they kind of showed their age were the Ancients of the High Council which his mother was apart off. Then below that the Elites, next step down the Middle Class, then the Young and then the Newborn Vampires.
His Mother liked theatrics. Well she was really, really old.
Vampires also had lightning fast reflexes. And could run very fast. They healed quickly and could hear and see extremely well. They DID have retractable fangs. They couldn't get sick. They could eat. But they didn't need to. All, well maybe half of vampires were intelligent. And Newborn vampires could have a bit off bloodlust for human blood. So they were under the charge off their creator or mate. There were strict rules. Which helped when it could. There were Vampire Police Force and Clean Up Crews. And off course the High Council made up by Ancient Vampires that governed the rest of Vampire Kind.
Castle knew out off his new friends Lanie was a vampire. She was a Middle Class vampire. Really still a young one. She was his main source of blood if he needed it. Or needed medical help. Because he couldn't exactly go to a hospital could he?
He may have a heart beat but they would see something different in his blood and so on. So it was best to avoid hospitals.
They only times he went to them was when he was visiting or saving Beckett. You may think hospitals were a bad place for vampires what with all the spilt blood. But Castle had excellent control. And blood really didn't bother him. And he was normally just so worried about Beckett to notice. He was normally thinking about should he turn her before she dies.
But he would never do that without her permission. He would never turn anyone without their permission.
Another thing about vampires is that they could have children, well all but the Bat Vampires. Alexis was proof as she was half-vampire. She had the immortality of a vampire. But she didn't need as much blood. She wasn't as fast and strong as full vampires and so one.
So vampires were very complicated and had lots of abilities and the myths surrounding them were basically completely wrong except for fire and stakes. Fire was what ALL vampires feared. It could destroy them. And stakes to the heart would paralysed them long enough to be destroyed or up in binds that vampires couldn't break out off.
Castle was still musing about his problem with Beckett when the bond he had with Beckett flared. Saying to him she was in danger.
Castle jumped up with a snarl knocking the blood glass out off his hand smashing the glass. Castle took off at Vampire Speed. He run across the cities roof tops. Using his fast speed and agility to fly across the roof tops.
He gets to Beckett's apartment within ten minutes to find fire coming out the windows. Castle snarls and jumps down and into the building. Which was being evacuated. He rushes to Kate's apartment. And he smells a scent leading down the corridor.
It was a scent of a vampire…a Blood Vampire. The scent was also attached to Kate's. Someone has taken HIS mate! How dare they? They would have smelt his scent in her apartment and on her marking her to vampires as claimed.
He was going to destroy the vampire. How dare this bastard mess with him. He could tell it was a male by the scent. It took an expert tracker to make out the difference between male and female vampire scents. And the difference between sub-species.
Luckily he was one of the expert trackers. But he needed to get everyone out off here and the fire out. Kate would never forgive him if someone died.
He quickly tracked the heartbeats of people still in the building and herded them out. Careful to avoid the flames or showing who he was.
He waits in the shadows as the Fire Fighters put out the fire. He knows he needed to act fast to get as much evidence from Kate's apartment as he could before Espo or Ryan show up.
He walked into the building. Using speed to arrive quicker. Seeing Fire Fighters around he needed to use abilities only some vampires could use correctly.
"Excuse me", Castle say to the nearest Fire Fighter
"Sir you can't be here", the man says
"I am allowed to be here. You will get everyone out off here for the next 30 minutes saying it is for safety concerns. You will remember nothing about me", Castle orders in a hypnotic voice.
"Yes sir, yes sir", the man says in a daze.
He orders everyone out just like Castle told him too.
"Sorry about that", Castle mutters even through the man wouldn't hear.
He walks into the destroyed apartment. This was the second time Kate's apartment has been destroyed. He really needed to get her better security. Maybe he could convince her to stay with him now.
He sniffs around tracing the scent. His sharp eyes see Kate's Mother's ring lying in the rubble with her Fathers watch.
He quickly picks up both and wipes them. The watch was slightly damaged but he could fix that. He put the two items in his pocket.
This told him that Kate was likely in bed or have a bath or shower when the unknown vampire struck. He was proven correct when her scent, even though the smoke, was stronger in the bathroom. He smelt blood too. Her blood. That nearly scent him into a rage. But he had to control himself and save it for the bastard when he rescued her.
Save it for the kidnapper. He continued to think. As he looked over the apartment.
"The window. The latched is picked. Nails of a vampire", Castle mutters to himself seeing the marks on the window, "Probably came down from the roof, instead of from the street. People wouldn't notice him going that way"
Castle looks around his sharp eyes going over every detail of the apartment. He found what caused the fire. An electrical charge. People would think it was a faulty power plug that started the fire. Unto they look closer.
He hears police arriving outside. And hears Espo's and Ryan's frantic voices. He needed to get out off here. He used vampire speed to get to the roof. Out off everyone's sight.
He pulls out his phone and rings his Mother.
"Richard what is wrong?" she asks knowing something was wrong.
"Kate has been kidnapped", Castle replies
"Richard you know you can't…", Martha starts
"She was kidnapped by OUR kind Mother. A Blood Vampire. Male. He took her alive but unconscious", Castle reels off.
"That is not good. Will the clear up crew be needed at Beckett's apartment?" Martha asks
"No. The fire destroyed the evidence to human eyes. But you might what to check on security footage. Have the Vampire Police review it for clues", Castle orders
"Are you sure about this?" Martha asks
"She is MY mate Mother. And she was kidnapped by OUR kind. You know what that means. I have rights to go after the bastard", Castle snaps at his Mother, already on a short fuse.
"Very well. I will inform the Council. Be safe Richard", Martha says
"I always am Mother. You don't need to worry. I have far left my New-Born Vampire years behind me", Castle replies
"A mothers instinct. You know our kind have high maternal instincts. Good luck Richard", Martha says
"Thank you mother", Richard says hanging up
He searches the roof for a scent. But rain had started he would need to go quick. But his phone rings. He sees it is Lanie. Picking it up quickly.
"Cast…", Lanie starts
"I know Lanie. I am on the hunt", Castle tells her quickly
"So one of our kind took her?" Lanie asks in fear
"Yes", Castle replies
"Get the bastard Writer Boy", Lanie orders
"Already on the hunt Lanie", Castle replies hanging up
He puts his phone in his pocket. Finding the start off the trail.
"Hang on Kate. I'm coming. And you bastard you better watch out. Your about to feel my wrath and rage"
