*~A week later~*/p
"Is he the one?" Lucian asked, "His blood didn't mix, he is not of the pure Corvinus bloodline.. You need to hunt down another.." Singe said as he marked out the boys name. Lucian sighed, irritated.
"How many leads are left?" "There's seven but I don't know which one will be the one we need.." "Keep on the hunt, we'll find the heir sooner or later.. Let's just hope it's sooner.." Lucian looked down cast at another failure.

"Right at that moment I walked through the old plastic curtains at the doorway of the room."Lucian!" I exclaimed excitedly glancing around the room to find Lucian. "What is it?" Lucian asked smiling at my excitement.
"I need to speak to you privately meet me in your chambers when your finished." I said smiling, while Lucian looked confused at what I could possibly need to speak to him about privately.

"Our chambers. Dear one, with how much time you've spent in there with me. I am quite sure they are your chambers as well." Lucian said in a soft loving voice, I blushed looking quite bashful at his openness in front others. "If you insist." I said bashfully a small smile growing on my lips. My heart was running rapidly in joy.

"Well, I'm finished now. I'll walk with you to our chambers, and I do insist. " Lucian said. He took my hand in his lifting it to his lips and pressing the sweetest kiss upon the top of my hand. I was completely flush now, my eye looking into his completely entranced.

Then Singe coughed and the trance was broken. I giggled nervously for a second. "Well, hurry up then!" I said smiling slightly at singe. He returned the gesture, as I hurried towards Lucian and my chambers pulling him along by the hand he had yet to let go of. We reached our chambers fairly quickly."Close the doors, Lucian." He did as I asked.

"What did you need to speak with me about?"

"I'm Pregnant! We're going to have a child together! Singe examined me this morning, I was feeling a little off. So, I went to see him." I told him in rapid secession, Lucian was shocked to say the least.

"It usually takes decades or centuries to conceive. How is this possible?" He asked surprised, "Well, when a man and a woman-" "I know how a child is made, it is just surprising how that it happened so quickly.. Not that I'm not happy by this gift your able to give me." He said getting over the shock at such a surprise. "Well it's not like I wasn't surprised, I mean it was a shock to me at first too. But you did say you would keep me in bed till I had your pups, and that's just what you did." "This means I need to keep you hidden if someone finds out.. Especially Viktor you'll both be in grave danger." He said worried, I just smiled.
"I know which is why I'll be leaving to find my destined mate. My last dream showed him living far from here. He's all the way in America, so I'll be far away from this war.." "That's probably best, although I'll miss you and our growing child." He said sadly, my expression softened.

"I will send word as soon as the child's born. I think you should keep looking for a Corvinus to avoid suspicion from others by stopping your search. I'll take Raze's son with me, he's trustworthy and strong enough to keep me safe if need be. He'll also keep suspicion away since he's not seen as much around here anyways." He looked at me and laughed slightly, "You had this all planned out before you told me didn't you." he states. "Yes, I did. I plan to leave tonight on a cargo ship headed to America." He sighed, "I'll keep to finding the bloodline.. I will miss you, although it's best if you leave before anything unfortunate happens. I'll send Draven with you."

"Have him meet me there, I don't want to waste time so I will be leaving right away... I do love you, you do know that?" I said, he smiled.
"As I do you. Go, I will send Draven after you. Go, before I change my mind." "Alright, alright.. Just let me change first.. I'll be taking that coat of yours with me." I stated smirking, he laughed. "Is that a request or a order miss Luna." "Both." He smiled, shrugging it off.

"Here, keep warm and stay safe. I love you, and thank you for this gift." He said softly while wrapping me his coat. "I love you too, and if I don't leave now I don't think I will!" I stated laughing lightly, I smiled at him before leaving as fast as I could toward the docks.

I arrived at the docks as they were doing final checks on the ship, as I was walking towards the ship men in black uniforms surrounded me. I was outnumbered and outgunned, I stayed where I was waiting for someone to come forward.

Someone did.

Alexander Corvinus himself stepped out of the shadows, hands behind his back clasped together loosely, relaxed with his head held high. I lowered my head in respect towards him.

"Eldest! What can I do for you this evening?" I asked him as I wondered what he wanted with me. He showed a slight smile at me.

"I ask Zelena sired by Amelia whom was sired by Marcus, a favor should you choose to humor a old man's wishes. They'll benefit you and yours." I stared at him cautiously, "What could I do for that would benefit me and mine?"

"Drink." He said. "What? " I asked confused. "Drink from me and become something stronger and when the time comes, and I call on you, come. Come across seas, countries, anywhere and end my sons."

"Why?"

"I tire of their cruelty, one is locked up and can't help his mindset the other can help it but chooses not to. I'd rather rid the world of them than have them set their wrath upon it."

I looked down, "I don't know what will become of me but I have my own child on the way, so I'll do it." I said walking closer to him,'I should do this carefully, those men look quite tense now that I think of it..' I thought suddenly, slowly taking out a small blade from Lucian's coat.

So, as not to alert the Eldest guardsmen.

I slowly got on one knee delicately grasping his wrist, I turned it upwards to face me. Swiftly slicing his wrist, I put his slit wrist to my mouth drinking. I drank slowly at first then deeply.

His blood so rich and sweet the most decadent I've ever tasted. I could feel the blood changing me, the feeling was addictive.

I didn't want to stop but I hear his heartbeat nagging in the back of my mind. I knew if I continued any longer his heartbeat might become to faint.

So, I slowed to a stop, licking his wrist clean to clot the blood. I gave one last lick groaning from leaving such a sweet treat, I stood smirking slyly.

"Your blood is delicious Eldest, how is it that your blood is up to par with the finest of wines?"

He laughed loudly and then sighed with a slight smile. "Thank you, truly. I haven't laughed genuinely in quite some time. And I haven't a clue on how it tastes so well, your the first to taste it. I suppose it could be because I'm the original Corvinus." I smiled feeling a bit of a blood high.

"I suppose so, Eldest. If I may, could it be possible to take some of your blood with me. I have quite the trip to make and I wasn't able to get anything without raising suspicion."

"You can have some for a snack, but I insist you take my private plane. It will make your trip significantly shorter, my men will stay with you till your safely within your mates arms. Do you know what happens to mates the closer they get to their destined mate?"

"They get a stronger connection, of course."

"Yes, but they also get markings. They are unique to every pair of mates. Don't worry they are actually quite beautiful."

"I'll take your offer and thank you for the information. I shall come as quickly as I can when called." He just smiled, "Come, my men will take you to the plane. My blood will be there when you arrive. I wish you happiness with your mates." I nodded my head at his words, "Thank you, for your kind words." With that we parted, following his men to a jeep they drove me quickly to the airstrip.

We got there within minutes, hopping out the vehicle. I walked to the plane and up the steps, walking through the entrance I quickly got seated.

"We'll be departing in a minute, you should get some sleep. We'll wake you when we get to America, you'll need to direct us the rest of the way." "I expected as much, wake me when needed. I'd head south once there though, I saw a cowboy with him in the dream." I said leaning back rolling over in the seat. "Yes, ma'am. Have a good sleep we'll wake you in about 10 hours if you're not up before then."

I heard him say drifting into sleep I hummed, nodding into the seat more.
