Hey guys!

So I have to thank ShadowPhoenix34 for giving me the idea to write how Vincent meets Catherine's mother. Again I'm still new to this anime so if I miss some information my apologies. Catherine's mother is named Abigail. Abigail's mother Annemarie is named after my niece who turned four in January XD. Abigail is a year older than Vincent. The two of them get married in their teens.

Catherine's POV

I woke to feel cool lips kissing my bare shoulder.

"Sebastian Michaelis you know better than to wake me up when I'm not ready" I scolded the demon.

My mate had lowered the strap of my gown and decided to kiss my flesh while I still slept.

It was still dark out but when your a butler your days started early.

"I know my love" the demon apologized. " I'll let you go back to sleep in a moment I just wanted to wish you a happy birthday my Little Dhampir"

My eyes widened a bit more when he mentioned that. Time flew by so fast I lost track of the days. Before my parents died birthdays were a big deal but at my age they weren't as exciting. Today I was twenty-one which was hard to believe.

"Shall we have some time alone later?" I joked at the demon.

"Oh yes" Sebastian replied.

"Your such a pervert demon" I pointed out.

Sebastian chuckled before kissing my forehead and he left me to go back to sleep. By the time I woke back up the sun was shining through the window. On my nightstand there was a vase full of roses and I knew they were from Sebastian. Despite being a demon my mate was quite the romantic whenever the mood hit him.

I got out of bed and changed into my usual clothes before heading to the dining room.

"Happy birthday Catherine" Ciel greeted as I entered the room. Thankfully it was just me and my little brother at the moment. I thanked Ciel by kissing his forehead however my sibling had something else in mind. He slid a box into my palm and I opened it. Inside was a silver ring with a blue gemstone in the center. This ring looked exactly like Ciel's only it was smaller and it was meant for a woman to wear.

"Ciel is this?" I began.

"Your may not be an heir Catherine but you are still a Phantomhive and you deserve to wear a ring symbolizing our family"

Ciel then took the ring from the box and placed it onto my right hand.

"Now people will know you are my sister and worthy of carrying the Phantomhive name"

I felt a few tears slide down my face because I was so touched by this gift. Ciel used a handkerchief to wipe my tears away and he kissed my cheek. Then he led me to my chair before he went to his usual spot and Sebastian brought in breakfast for us.

"I see the young master has given you his present" the butler said looking at my ring.

"Enough Sebastian don't embarrass her" my brother reprimanded my mate.

"It's alright little brother" I reassured Ciel.

"You know I am curious about something" Sebastian interjected. Both Ciel and I looked at the demon with questioning looks. "I never heard how your birth mother met your father"

"You know I don't know that either" Ciel agreed.

"It's a bit of a long story" I stated.

"I have no business with anyone today sister and you are a good story teller"

"Gah you two won't leave it alone unless I tell it" I surrendered. "All of it began in 1867"

1867

Vincent's POV

"Leave me bloody alone!" I snapped as I ran for my life. Normally I wouldn't have gone out with my friends at night but I was easily persuaded. I made the stupid decision to walk back to the townhouse alone and I had been ambushed by an unknown assailant. My pursuer chased me until I was out of breath and trapped in an alley.

"You're a noble how delicious"

A man emerged from the shadows and I could see his features thanks to the full moon. He looked and dressed like an ordinary man but I knew he wasn't human. His eyes glowed blue and his mouth revealed four sharp canines. I had thought vampires were nothing but stories but the being in front of me proved me wrong.

I was scared and I knew I was about to die. The vampire before me chuckled darkly before charging at me and I closed my eyes waiting for my inevitable death but it didn't come. Instead I heard a loud crash as though something had hit a wall. Opening my eyes I saw a girl standing a few feet ahead of me.

The vampire that had wanted to kill me was being pinned into the wall thanks to the girl holding my assailant's throat.

"How pathetic your a newborn who can't control his thirst" the girl hissed. She then pulled out a sword and she proceeded to behead my attacker. Then my savior turned to me. Her eyes glowed the same blue hue as the vampire before her. However instead of violence her eyes held kindness and caution.

"You were lucky tonight human" the girl told me. "You would have been killed had I not followed you"

"You have my gratitude my lady"

"A word of warning human don't go traveling about at night without the proper escort"

She turned to leave but I grabbed her hand and she looked at me wondering what I wanted.

"Can I at least know your name? I promise I won't tell anyone what you are"

The girl smirked.

"I guess it won't hurt telling you my name Little Human"

"Little Human?" I asked.

"Relax I was merely teasing my name is Abigail Sinclair"

"I thank you again for saving my life tonight my lady"

I pressed a kiss onto her hand and I could see the blush coming to her face. I then let go of her and I watched as the vampire female fade into the night.

A Week Later.

Since my encounter with Abigail she never left my thoughts. After my lessons were finished for the day father called me into his study. My eyes widened when I saw Abigail dressed in a beautiful dark blue gown with an older woman beside her. I never got a good look of Abigail due to it being nightfall when we met but now I could see her plenty.

Her hair was black like a raven's wing and her eyes were silver like the moon. Her hair was pulled back in a typical bun. The woman beside her had dark red hair and the same silver eyes.

"Son this is Lady Annemarie Sinclair and her daughter Abigail" my father introduced the two women to me. I gave both ladies a bow and they replied with a curtsy.

Lady Annemarie approached me and I froze. She was no doubt a vampire and she held the power in her family.

"Don't be frightened of me child I mean no harm"

Even though she appeared intimidating this woman wasn't an enemy.

"My apologies my lady but I haven't had many encounters with vampires"

From what I heard vampires couldn't walk in the sun but it was sunny outside. Abigail suddenly smirked.

"You seriously think the sun would burn us on sight?"

"How did you know what I was thinking?" I demanded surprised.

"My family always had different gifts my lord" Lady Annemarie explained. She then turned to her daughter with pride in her eyes. "Abigail has the ability to read minds, her sister can create illusions, and I can see a person's memories"

"How extraordinary" father stated.

"For the longest time my family and other supernatural beings always believed in coexistence with humans, however there are some who wish to cause violence hence why you don't hear of supernatural beings out in public much" Lady Annemarie went on.

"I owe your daughter my life milady" I added looking to Abigail. "Though I was stupid to be walking around at night, however I'm sure there is something else you wish to discuss"

"He's a good lad old friend" Lady Annemarie told my father.

"Mother let's get on with why we are here the Phantomhive family are busy" Abigail suggested.

"Very well" Lady Annemarie agreed before her silver eyes looked back to me. "Child I don't mean to embarrass you but vampires such as myself have different relationships than humans"

"You mean like a mate?" I suggested. During my studies I read about how some animals would only take one animal to be their mate for life such as wolves, eagles, and countless others.

"Yes child and the same goes for my kind, you see true mates are rare, the night Abigail saved your life she felt the mate bond between you two"

Immediately my face went red and so did Abigail's. No one talked until I gathered the courage to do so.

"So I am your true mate then milady?" I inquired at the teen vampire.

"Yes however the choice is yours if you wish to accept it"

A Couple Months Later.

I still hadn't made up my mind whether I wished to accept Abigail's claim. I needed time to think about it and Lady Annemarie and her daughter understood my request to think it over. I did however begin to spend my time with Abigail whenever I was free.

I found myself enjoying being with her. I asked many questions about the life of vampires amongst other things. According to her vampires could walk around in daylight as long as he or she fed before then. The more time I spent with Abigail the more I wished to be by her side. And it was then I made my decision.

"Abigail there is something I wish to tell you"

Lady Annemarie had come to visit for the day and we had the chance to catch up. Abigail was holding my arm as we walked through the gardens.

"You heartbeat is speeding up Little Human" she teased.

I chuckled before going down onto one knee before her. I kissed her hand before continuing.

"Abigail Sinclair I ask your permission to accept my claim if you will have me"

I was suddenly on my back because Abigail had thrown herself on top of me. A few tears slid down her face and I wiped them away before kissing her. The moment our lips met I knew I made the right decision.

A Year Later.

My precious Abbie and I sealed our mate bond a week after I accepted her claim. We didn't need to be intimate to seal the bond. She simply lay her mark on my left shoulder which radiated her scent and I bit her hard enough in the same area. My scent would tell other supernatural beings this vampire was mine and I was hers.

However we courted for about a year before I finally asked her to marry me and she accepted. Despite being only sixteen I knew this was the woman I was meant to share my life with. The wedding was quite the event and my sister and father were happy for me.

However a few months into my marriage did father pass away from yellow fever. With his death I became the new earl of Phantomhive Manor. Both Francis and I had been close to our father and his death put me through a small depression. But in the darkness came the light from Abbie. She too lost her father when she had been thirteen and with her at my side the days got better.

Then one evening after dinner did Abigail pull me aside. She placed a hand onto her belly and my eyes widened.

"Are you certain?" I asked.

"Yes Little Human I am with child" she confirmed.

I let out a laugh and I gave my wife a long kiss to show how happy I was. However we would keep the pregnancy a secret for now. There were others who would frown upon about having a child born from a human and a vampire. During our courtship Abbie and I would get slandered about our relationship but we paid no mind to the gossip.

I made sure my wife received the best medical care possible during her pregnancy. Eventually Abbie started to show and her moods swung as well as her appetite. Our baby needed blood and my wife tended to drink more blood than usual. One night into her seventh month I lay my head against Abigail's middle.

"Our child has been quiet my love" my wife pointed out.

No sooner had she said those words did the baby kick and I chuckled. I kissed Abbie's belly before giving my wife a quick peck on the lips.

"We still haven't decided names"

"And what do you think we are having Little Human?" my wife teased.

"I don't care as long as he or she is healthy" I replied. "But I like Catherine for a girl"

"I approve of that name" Abbie said. "But I am stuck on a boy name"

"We still have time to decide"
