With every secret I learned the happier i became. True i was still being shunned by the others, but knowing my blood secrets made me feel apart of my family. The more i learned the more i began to realize why i was being shunned. Here I was a child of a human being told the secrets of a powerful vampire family. I was shunned because I was feared. I fell asleep to the whispers of those who feared me. The first night i fell asleep to those whispers was the first night i realized i was a child who wanted those who feared me to take me in as one of their own.
Every month my uncle hosted a ball for other families to gather with ours and boast about their success. Since as far i can remember I wasn't allowed to go to any of them. For years I listen to the distant music downstairs day dreaming about how amazing it must have been."Saveria pick out a nice dress from your wardrobe. You will be coming to the ball this year."Stunned by my uncles words all i was able to manage out was
"W-Why?"
"One of the council members has requested your presence there."
"Who?"
"Ambroise Clovise, hes one of the most respectful council member of his generation."
What my uncle meant is that with each new generation a new council member was chosen a total of eight of them. It's said that only the wisest and strongest vampires are chosen and must prove there right for placement.
What does he want from me," i continued.
"I don't know Saveria, but when a council member requests something from you. You do it with honor and respect. Do you understand?"
"yes uncle I understand," is what i said but in reality i had no clue what was going on. Why would a well respected vampire want to meet me, a child of a human?
The question stayed into my head for every 2,592,000 seconds that went by for the past 3 days. I starred from the upstairs balcony watching my uncle order around the servers, chefs, decorators, and who ever else he hired. Did he have so much fate in me that he actually mentioned me to a council member? "So you must be the famous Saveria." I turned to see a shaggy hair boy he had to be around 15 or 16. He was wearing a tuxedo type suit cept no tie and it was slightly unbutton. He had two piercings on his bottom lips which he was taken out.
"No I am just Saveria no fame here."
"I think otherwise your name is all over America not just here."
"Your from America?"
"Yes i am sorry let me introduce myself. My name is Jordan. I am from the Gaulle family."
"Hmmm Jason de Gaulle."
"yes and you are Saveria Prudenzio."
"So? What do you want?"
"Your uncle has a appointed me as your guard for tonight ."
"Why would i need a guard?"
"Your feared by a lot of people and you never thought that someone might try to kill you?"
"I have my uncle I need not to worry."
"To depend on someone is foolish."
"Only 5 minutes and you are already annoying me. If you are going to guard me than try with your mouth shut."
He laughed. "I understand."
If it wasn't bad enough I was forced to wear a dress. I know now had to be followed by the most arrogant person I have ever met. If I wasn't confused now by what was going on i surely am now. If it was so dangerous for me to be here than why would my uncle and the council member let it happen.
Guest finally began arriving and each one of them gave me looks i was all to familiar with. My uncle greeted me to those i suppose were in somewhat importance to him or our family. A majority of them smiled and introduce there selves but you could tell by looking in there eyes that the smile was just a front. There was only one exception a "man" named Deimos Kambyses. By his accent I was guessing he was greek. He was a tall, tan and had a muscular body. His hair was nicely shaved and his chest was exposed to show his family crest. He was the leader of the Kambyses family. "So you are Saveria I have waited some time to meet you my dear."
"Why," i asked this night was just becoming more and more confusing.
"There is a rumor about you," he replied with a smile.
"What rumor?"
"You are said to be a born of a new generation a vampires one more powerful than others."
"who told you that?" I glared at my uncle. "it wasn't your uncle it was me." I turned around to se a tall man with long black hair and the greenest eyes you would ever see. He had a tattoo on his neck. I remember seeing the symbol before but not remembering what it meant. "and who are you to spread such rumors?" I sounded more irritated than i meant to show. The whispers began all over the room and i began to worry. "I am Ambroise Clovise. It's nice to meet you my dear Saveria." Oops. He was a noble. I now remembered what the mark meant. He was the noble who requested me here.
