Seventeen. I've been seventeen for almost four months. And vampires still don't know about me. For the past year I had been studying vampiric history and power control and had mastered everything. I've been writing letters to the Pritchards, my adopted family, as I promised I would. I've changed this past year as I became paler and hair a darker black and I've cut it into a pixie style. For the last four months I've been receiving reports on the chosen one, Vlad and I was soon hoping to visit him. I couldn't help but be tired of sitting in the shadows. I know Vlad is living at a school called Garside Grange Independent Day School in liverpool. The council members were discussing which one to send to the Carpathian feast that count Dracula is holding. The council agreed on sending Lord Augustus to the feast and I took it upon myself to attend it as well. I was packed and settled into my coffin for the long day trip along with Lord Augustus. When I arrive at the school I address my bodyguard Blaxton to find an acceptable room for my stay, while Lord Augustus heads to the feast first. I wonder the school until I hear many voice along with voices I haven't heard in years. I look down to see that I'm in my queen's dress and that I have my crown on. I couldn't wait to see everyone's reactions especially the Dracula's.
"My apologies gentlemen. It appears we have neglected filling in the appropriate forms to burn the half fang." I hear Vlad inform the crowd as groans fill the room.
"I was telling him earlier." Lord Augustus tried to defend.
"The penalty is ritual staking for all attending. Now the Dracula's are not ones for ruining one's entertainment, so we are leaving it to you. Shall we proceed?" Vlad asks and I couldn't help but smirk when I heard 'no' from around the room. I decided to let my presence be known.
"Such a pity. Lord Augustus, I thought I told you to make sure everything was under regulation. But I suppose the night will be fine without having to burn the half fang." I say as everyone turned towards me.
I walked in with Blaxton behind me and watch the shock and awe on everyone's faces.
"Who in name of the impaler are you?" the count questions me in a annoyed manner. I look towards Lord Augustus.
"Now." I say simply.
"Now? Are you sure?" he asked but I just stared at him until he understood.
"As you wish. Gentlemen, allow me to introduce the last surviving heir of the supposed lost clan, Dragomir." Lord Augustus introduces me and many gasps in shock while others look confused. Seconds later half of the gathering are bowing while others having pieced it together.
"I know that name. Why does that name sound familiar?" the Count asks I loud and I watched as Vlad was slightly bearing his fangs at me. He must not recognize me.
"The name sounds familiar to you, Count, because the Dragomir's were the pure vampire descends from the very first vampire. Royals." I explain to him as the rest of the room now bows to me. I roll my eyes at them. I look to see Vlad still had his fangs bared at me.
"Vlad, it's good to see you again even if you don't recognize me." I say and Vlad looks slightly more confused.
"We've met?" he asks as he keeps his fangs bared.
"Years ago. Allow me to clear up the confusion. I'm Queen Vimka Sanctus Dragomir. Or as you knew me, Vimka Pritchard." I tell him with a fanged smirk.
"But, you can't be. The Vimka I knew was a breather. And you're a full vampire, she would've been a half fang if she was change." Vlad stated.
"I was never a breather. I was always a full vampire. A royal. How else did I know so much about the vampiric world when your grandparents visited. Come on, Robin would be completely jealous of us right now." I tell him as he realizes that I was speaking the truth.
"Vimka, it really is you. How is Robin, and Chloe? I've missed you all." Vlad says and uses his speed to appear before me but before he could touch me, Blaxton appeared and stopped Vlad.
"Blaxton, it's alright." I tell him as I grab his arm which went to grab the stake he kept with him at all times. For the past sixteen months since he was assigned as my bodyguard, we have held a close bond together. He sometimes remind me of Will.
"Are you sure my Queen?" he asks and I give him a nod and he returns to his place behind me.
"Now, I believe this night is over. The sun'll be rising soon and I'm sure no one wants to accidentally turn into a pile of ash. Count, I have taken it amongst myself to arrange a room for me to stay in as I will be staying for a while. And if you could I would like you to arrange with the teachers that I'll be a new student." I tell him as the others had already left. I begin to leave when I hear Ingrid.
"Is the feast over already? Who are you? Why were you at the feast?" Ingrid demanded toward me and before I could stop him, Blaxton was behind Ingrid with a stake positioned at her heart and was about to stake her.
"Blaxton, Enough!" I commanded him.
"My Queen, she-" Blaxton began.
"I said enough, Blaxton! Do not make me repeat myself a third time!" I commanded in a shout. Blaxton nods and reappears at my side. I nod to him and walk towards Ingrid.
"Ingrid, I apologize about that. But Blaxton get very protective of me and hates it when people are disrespectful towards me. With all that aside, you look better than the last time I saw you. Are you still mourning for Will's death?" I ask her sweetly. I must've angered her as I was pinned to the wall by the her hand on my throat.
"Who are you and why do you know about Will?" she growls at me. I see Vlad motion for the half fang blonde to leave. The Count still looked confused over the fact that there was a woman in power. Blaxton was about to attack Ingrid but I used my telepathy to tell him not to do anything.
"Answer me!" Ingrid yell at me with bared fangs. I see Vlad was about to intervene so I tell Blaxton to stop him but not with force.
"You have three seconds to remove your grip from my neck." I tell her calmly and very clear. I begin to count slowly to three but she tightened her grip instead. I didn't want to resort to violence but I did warn her. I took control of her body and forced her to let go and kneel before me. Most people who would attempt to do this would have to concentrate hard on a emotion to even get someone to wave their hand. But this was easier than breathing to me, if I had to breath.
"What's happening? Stop it." Ingrid cries out confused as to why her body wouldn't respond to her.
"I don't like using violence or my powers but I will if I need to. I think I would like you to go and get me a bottle of Latvia aristocrat. And if you don't possess any here you will search every blood cellar into you find one. Don't return without it." I tell her and send her off. Before she could get very far Vlad stepped in front her and tried to snap her out of my command. It didn't work. I left to my room as I could sense the sun rising. Blaxton hypnotized two breather males to guard my room while we both slept. I wouldn't wake up during the day until my transfer to the school was done. Ingrid was able to find a bottle of Latvia aristocrat blood moments before the sunrise.
