Chapter Seven
Micheal sat beside her and tried not to laugh.
"You seriously don't know your own government system?"
Lorena shook her head.
"I know that I answer to Athien, my Creator, but that is about it."
Micheal sighed.
"Alright then, at the bottom you have the common people, well vampires, like yourself. Then you have your Lords and Ladies of the Coven in which you belong. They are like the King and Queens of that Coven which is their Kingdom. Then you have the Council, which consists of all the Lords and Ladies. Above them are the Elders which are the seven oldest vampires except for Athien who didn't want to be on the Elders Council because he would have had to give up Crystal. The Elders are not allowed to have wives. Above the Elders is the first vampire to ever be created, Draco. He is only summoned if his judgment is needed on a very serious crime that someone has committed. You belong to the Coven that Athien resides over since he is your Creator, the Livett Coven. The Livett Coven is the largest coven and the Bennett Coven is the second. The Werewolves only have an Alpha male that they all must obey. My kind has a ruler we follow, which is usually a woman who we call Mother. Above her is the Great Mother. The Hybrids, half human half vampire, have a really confusing governmental system. The Demons come first. Darren Thorn is the second in command. A Vice President of sorts. Then comes Chris Stephan. He is like a President, the first in command. They sometimes still obey the Vampire government though. Sometimes Chris will send representatives of sorts to do jobs for him. That is pretty much the governments of our world."
Lorena took a moment to absorb all the information.
"If Draco was the first vampire male ever created who was the first female?"
Lorena asked curiously. Micheal`s brow creased.
"I think her name was Lilith. She was Draco`s mate and the mother of the Elders and of Athien. She was the first and last female vampire to ever be able to bare children.
A rogue vampire, named Steven killed her and he created my kind and the Hybrids`. He slept with female werewolves to create my kind and Human women to create the Hybrids. Few of the Human women or Werewolves survived the birth. Steven was angry at Lilith for choosing Athien over him so he slept with those women to make her jealous. When that didn't work, he killed her. Some say Steven still lives while others believe Draco killed him to seek revenge. The Angels took away the vampire women`s ability to bare children to keep anything like that from happening again."
" But it wasn't Lilith`s fault!"
Micheal shrugged,
"It was what the Angels decided to do. There isn't anything we can do about it now."
