Chapter One

2005

Repeating years of age wasn't something new to some people. Situation were there's unbelievable creatures living around you.

With money.

With power.

Most importantly, blood.

Blood suckers you say, when a war happened between hunters, wear wolves and mostly, does blood sucking monsters, Vampires.

It was war.

Bloodshed.

Death.

Most importantly, the fact that they grew to love was killing, that feeling of killing a different creature as them, the killing that gives them more thirst.

The sweet taste of blood, nothing in a world filled with human, human used as slaves, puppets, water, red bloody water. 

In this life, human are like water bottles to vampires and inside that water bottle is what they crave the most.

The time when police, soldiers had to take matters into their own hands and getting their self killed. The president had to make an alliance with the vampire council, Muse, Edwin, Martin, Hart, Decker. The four council who are the biggest elite along with the witches, Andrews.

Community and citizens didn't dare run as everything went back to normal, humans lived their normal life knowing that vampires are long gone but they didn't stop the blood sucking, they didn't stop the killing.

People dropped the fact that they can die in the hands of a vampire while some oblivious to the situation believe it it be a mythology, folklore, legend, they refuse to believe it exists and it's better it says that way.

Well at the end, money can buy everything except one thing. Death

UNKNOWN POV

Fear creeps my body, I didn't feel comfortable in the middle of nowhere, Philip was not in distress as we walk past trees.

"Where are we going -" I was immediately cut off by an owl standing at the far end. I got startled. "Philip, I don't want to be here" I cry, he looks into my eyes but his eyes held something unfamiliar.

"We are almost there" he mumbles. But he doesn't look honest, I followed to wherever he was taking me. The night was dark and there was no moon. Soon, he stopped and so did I.

"Are we here?" I asked as his back was facing me. Next thing, rustling sound came from the forest, a guy and a girl came out from behind the three. But I noticed that something about them weren't normal. I started to run but as soon as I turn around, I'm face to face with Philip whose eyes in now red and vain lines cover his head.

I saw fangs coming out and that's when I saw the too others surrounding me, before I know it, I was screaming when I felt pain on my wrist and neck as blood starts to ooze out.

What will happen to my baby.

I never knew I married a monster till now, what will do with my child.

Third person's POV

It was a rainy night when Philip took the little baby that was crying under the rain towards a doorstep. He looks at the baby girl once more with a smirk. "Filthy humans" he says, hitting the doorbell before speeding off.

An elderly woman opened the door and saw the little girl lying on the floor. "Jesus Christ" she gasp as she carries the crying baby into her arms. Not knowing that this little baby held a lot of special powers from her late mother.

ARIA 

One. Two. Three. One. Two. Three.....

I kept taking in deep breath before walking into the huge building, today is my first day in this private university, I'm so nervous to be here, it's a boarding school. 

I was about to head into the hostel, my room was on the third floor according to what I was told. 

Wow....

It has an elevator, but I don't know how to open or use an elevator. I stood there with my luggages looking at the elevator till I heard a voice behind me. "Need help?" a deep husky voice said from behind me.

"Oh, hi, I don't really know how to use an elevator. I know, crazy right?" I asked, he chuckled. 

"Na, that's alright, let me help, you must be the new girl, I'm Eric" he said. 

"Aria" I introduced.

He press a button and the elevator opened, I watched what he's doing and how he does it before we got in. "Which floor?" He asked.

"Third floor" I told him. He press number three on the lined up button. 

The elevator started to move. "So....what brought you to Appleland University?" He tried to start a conversation.

"Well, I was sponsored, I'm from an orphanage" I told him. He nod in understanding.

"That means you're smart" he state making me laugh. 

"Thanks, I am" I told him. He's cute with forest green eyes. He has this aura I can't process. 

The elevator ding and I walked out, I looked back to see the elevator closing. "Later, Aria" he waved before it completely close. I walked around, looking for room sixteen. When I found the room, I knocked before walking in.

"Ohhhhhh....... she's here! She's here! She's here!" A blonde haired girl came running and embraced me in a hug. I chuckled.

"Hi" I said. She was still squeezing me. "Uhmm......your squeezing me" I breathe.

"Sorry, hi, I'm Maxine, nice to meet you?" She pulled me in and close the door. I saw a brunette reading a book on her bed. "That's Anna, she's not much of a fun but she's cool" she said. I looked at Anna, she smiled at me.

"Hi, I'm Aria" I told them. 

"Well..... Aria, that's your bed" she pointed a a big bed by the end. I just realized that the dorm is so big.

I move closer to my bed, sitting down on it, it's comfortable though. I hope my stay here won't be regretful.

*******

"Hey, I forgot to tell you, my boyfriend invited us to a small gathering, would like to come, it's tonight" she giggled. 

"I don't know, I don't really go to parties, I mean, I've never gone to parties before" I told her.

"It's not a party, it's just a hang out, plus, you'll get to know more friends" she insisted. I nod my head.

"Okay, where?" I asked.

"His house, oh my gosh, you're gonna meet some cute guys" she gushes, I laugh.

When it was 640pm, I wore a denim rip short that stops a little above my thighs and a black baggy shirt that covers the short. I paired it with a black boots.

"Are you ready?" Anna asked. I nod and walk out of the room with them. We headed down through the elevator, it's weird for a first day but I didn't want to be left alone.

"His house is not far" she said as we made it out of the school territory, the security wasn't a person but a machine, Maxine placed her eyes and the machine scanned it before it open.

We went out and a black g-wagon was waiting for us. We all entered. "Hey Fred, can you drop us at Miller's.?" Anna asked and he nod before driving off.

Soon, we made it to a gigantic mansion, I look in awe, it was so humongous. We came out of the car and thank the driver who was Anna's Personal driver.

Opening the gate, we walked in. We pass the pool towards the front entrance, loud music were audible. We open the door and Maxine was greeted by a kiss from...... Eric?. 

"My little thing, you made it" he said before kissing her again. "Hey Anna, Aria" he acknowledged.

I smiled. "Oh, you know her, she's our new roomie" Maxine giggled.

"Yeah, we met" he said, he looks at my neck, like he's thirsty or something, because he gulp before looking away. 

"Don't even think about" Maxine snapped at him. "C'mon. Hey, where's mister cutie?" She asked. Huh? Who's that? A lot of cute guys were seated, some were playing games, some were kissing some girls on their laps, I hate to admit it but they are hot as hell.

"You mean Ocean fuckin' Muse? I haven't see that dude, but he'll show up" a guy with blonde curls said as he look me up and down. "Won't you intro us to the newbie?" He asked Maxine and Anna.

"Guys, this is Aria" she smiled. Everyone said a hello to me.

I sat on the next to that guy with blonde curls. "Hey, I'm Jack" he said, I smiled.

"Nice to meet you, Jack" I said shyly, he scooted close to me and look me intensively.

"So........ what blood group are you?" He asked, that's a weird question though.

"O" I told him. His eyes bulge with shock and desire. 

"Really? That's...... cool" he stated. They are all weird.

"Where the fuck is Ocean?" A guy that a girl was on his lap asked everyone. No one answered in specific. Who is Ocean? Maybe he's different from others, I mean, why are they waiting for him?

Few hours had gone by and everyone except from where drunk, I don't drink, I'm afraid of the feeling of alcohol. "Please, where is the restroom?" I asked Jack.

"Upstairs, to the left, the third door" he said, I thank him and stood up walking straight up, I opened the third door to my left and sigh in relief as I saw it was a restroom.

I quickly did my business and washed my hands and splash water on my face. Feeling contented with myself and walk to the door only to be bumped by someone, I looked up to a dark green eyes 

"I'm sorry, excuse me" I said, I have a bad feeling about this guy. He grabs my wrist and pull me back. 

"Not gonna introduce yourself?" He asked, he smirked at me.

"I really need to go" I said nervously.

"Who are you? And what are you doing in the means of.......us." he said too suspicious. 

"I'm Aria, a friend of Maxine" I told him. He raised his brows in surprise.

"Newbie" he said with a chuckle. "Nice to meet you, I'm Carlos" he introduced.

"You're not supposed to be here, did they at least tell you that?" He asked, I don't like the look on his face. He looks like he's holding himself. "I think you better get home" he breathes.

I moved pass him and headed down, I saw Maxine kissing Eric and Anna with Jack. I told them that I'm going home. "Hey, but the fun is just beginning" she whine as Eric plays with her hair. She's drunk. "I'm staying with him tonight" she decided. 

I look at Anna. "Hey, you coming?" I asked, she shakes her head negatively. I sigh and walk towards the door.

I left the mansion, I guess I have to walk. The night was dark, pretty dark, I could only see due to the moon. I kicked some stone on the way. 

All if a sudden, I heard grunt and crying from close by, the scream was intense. I wanted to ignore but it sounded like an old man. I decided it's best if I go home but my legs me towards the direction. I walked across the road I look closely. A guy was biting through an old man neck, I couldn't see well but I know something like blood was dripping.

The man dropped to the floor, the guy turn around and saw me looking at him, I was terrified, should I run? I slowly stepped backwards as he came closer, the old my was lying on the ground cold blooded, who is this man in front of me. I couldn't see him clearly because of the darkness in the night.

"Wh-what d-did you do to him. How did you do that?" I managed to asked. His lips covered with the old man's blood, he smirked at me.

"What an interesting little girl, you wanna know what I did to him?" he said, and as if my legs work on their own, I turn around and tried to run away, but surprisingly, he was right in front of me. I yelp and tried to run away again but he grabbed my hair and pulled me back. My back was against his chest, I squirm in fear. "Since you're curious, let me show you" he whispered and that's when I felt his teeth like a fang on my neck.

I scream as something like fang dig into my pulsing neck, I cried out and moan in pain, he didn't stop, he kept biting into my neck, my eyes slowly started to close, the smell of orange cluster my nose. I thought it was my time to disappear from life.
