The history of silas.
It was still some few hours before dawn and the witch had been on the trail of Lucas and his brothers. In the minutes she followed Lucas from behind, she couldn't help but reminisce on the similarities he shared with Silas.
FLASH BACK TO 5 YEARS BACK.
"Mildred wait!", Silas called out as he chased after her. Mildred was far from him and didn't appear to be slowing down, instead she picked up more speed as she walked faster.
"Please hear me out!", he said as he increased his running speed to catch up with her. They had had a big misunderstanding and Mildred had had enough. She heard his call echo through the lonely streets of the night.
The kiss lasted for a while until they both let go. Silas held her hand as they both walked along the poorly lit street."Can I ask you a question?", Mildred said, looking up admirably at him."Yes, you can ask me anything", Silas said, smiling at her."Okay", Mildred said, smiling back at him before looking away shyly."Aren't you risking too much for me, would Dracula ever accept us as a couple?", she asked concerned."Yes I am risking a lot but I'll gladly take that risk for you"."Dracula is a difficult lord to please but I believe I can win him over. Maybe finally our union may end
Silas took the long route back to Dracula's lair. His assignment was to spy on the werewolves by means of an insider which was Mildred. He was the most good looking vampire amongst his generals and the one Dracula knew would melt the heart of the witch, but what he did not envisage is Silas falling in love with the witch."How do I summon the courage to face Dracula with my love for Mildred?", he thought. It was really hard but he had to find a way to let him know."I have known him for centuries since he first created me as a vampire, he surely knows my character that I can not betray him"."He will be disappointed a bit in me but if I can convince him of the greater picture, of lasting peace between the vampires and werewolves, maybe then that would change his mind".
Mildred led Silas to the werewolf's territory. He had never come this close before to her home. On the way to her home there were werewolves everywhere, guarding their territory and keeping off intruders like vampires. But today Silas didn't feel like an intruder, the werewolves let him pass through their territory without batting an eyelid.They had now passed the outskirts of the werewolf's territory and were now on the inside. There were so many werewolves, even Silas couldn't count. He felt like he had walked into a trap but his only comfort was that he knew Mildred was true to her words that he would be safe in the territory of the werewolves."We have to go see Alpha White first", Mildred said to him, as she led the way to his house."Okay", Silas said calmly. The were
Mildred led Silas to a nice looking abode where he would now call home."I'll check on you later in the morning", Mildred said, bidding him good night as she left for her own home."Okay, see you tomorrow", Silas replied.***BACK TO THE PRESENTLucas and his brothers had walked a long way back to the city. Dawn was now only a few hours away.As they walked back into the city, Lucas could see the level of destruction the city had suffered. Cars had been flung into buildings, windows had been shattered, dirty and garbage filled the streets and some parts of the streets were flooded
FLASH BACK TO THE PASTIt was no longer news in the vampire hierarchy that Silas had betrayed Dracula and had joined forces with his enemies. He was now the most hunted vampire alive. Dracula had placed a bounty on his head for his death, but there was a problem: he was living deep within the werewolves territory, under their care and protection and he had not for once strayed outside of it.2 years had passed since he abandoned the vampire hierarchy for the witch and the werewolves. 2 long years Dracula had tried to kill him by every means possible but found it difficult to reach him. He was growing weary already."I need Silas dead, he has lived for far too long!", Dracula yelled in his court chambers. His remaining 5 generals were with him- Cobra, Katharine, Talon,
Mildred had now gotten permission to leave with Silas as soon as noon. She wanted to leave before dark because that was when the vampires were mostly going to attack. She knew a large bounty was still on Silas' head even though it had been two years since it was placed."I have Alpha White's blessing Silas, we can leave!", she said excitedly, as she walked into their quarters."That's goodnews Mildred, I know how much this means to you", Silas said.He was weak but was up and moving around in the house."We don't need too much to move, we need only a few things. This place is still our home and we will come back one day", he said."Yes we will '', Mil
The bus trip out of the city was relatively peaceful. Mildred had gradually caused the mist to disappear and so the driver could easily drive his bus through the road.Silas was calm now but Mildred still ensured he could not perceive any smell just in case the incident that happened the previous time happened again.She thought about what all the blood she saw on the ground could mean. She knew it was deliberately poured all over but how they did it in the daytime without arousing the attention of people made her surprised."It almost worked", she thought to herself.Silas was wide awake all through the journey, he kept his eyes peeled on the road through the window for a possible danger. He still
Silas had waited properly until it was dark outside, the time was now 8 PM and it was time he left."I'll be heading out now", he said to Mildred who was carefully looking outside the window for any sign of strange movements."Okay Silas, the coast is clear", she said, turning to face him.Silas walked towards her and planted a kiss on her lips."Don't worry, it will all be fine dear", he said with a smile.She smiled back at him, she felt so too."You can go", she said."Thank you, I appreciate all you do for me", Silas said, as he
When Lucas arrived at Mildred's house, he could hear her quietly sobbing inside the living room. The door was not shut, it was kept half way open. Mildred apparently was expecting Lucas to come after her. Because she was crying Lucas pleaded with Nicole not to come inside with him to not aggravate the situation even more but he allowed her to stay close enough to the door to hear everything that was going to be said. Lucas knocked gently and went in. "Why are you here with her? To further compound my mystery?!", Mildred asked, not too pleased to see him anymore. "I now know the true reason why you are so upset with Nicole. I wished I had figured it out earlier but I didn't. It took me this long to figure it out but I am sorry I made you suffer", Lucas sa
Dracula had been brutalised by Ambrosia as he got of him, which meant Lucas and his brothers had no more pains to inflict on him but they had one little request before they left."Announce that all vampires in your territory be summoned to court. You have a big announcement to make about Ambrosia and Mary. I am sure your face would have healed up well before they arrived", Lucas said.Dracula's hands were figuratively tied, he was powerless against the vampire hybrids and they were reinforcing their supremacy over him. Dracula gave his General Apollo the go ahead to summon the vampire originals. Apollo was now a shadow of his former self as he had lost all his courage seeing how Ambrosia dealt with Dracula mercilessly and he didn't retaliate for fear of the vampire hybrids. Apollo quickly ran and did as he was tol
"Mark please get to Dracula before they get to him", Lucas said calmly looking at Mark. The chaos was soon going to get to him and he didn't want him to leave until he was ready for him to."Consider it done!", Mark said, as he zoomed off in superspeed. Dracula had no chance of escaping him."Andrew, please seal off all the exits out of this place. Nobody goes out or comes in with my consent", Lucas said."I got it covered!", Andrew said, as he zoomed off in supermood and did exactly as he was told until the whole fortress was secured. No vampire was able to leave because of how fast he was at shutting the doors.Mark and Andrew now had everything covered as Lucas, Nicole, Ambrosia and Mary made their way slow
It was dawn the next day and Lucas was ready to make good his promise to Ambrosia and Mary. He also had other things he needed to accomplish. He knew the truth about how Mildred felt about him and needed to make things straight with her. He had done a lot of thinking through the night and his amazing brain and pieced together why things didn't go according to plan for her. As always Lucas was going to be going with his brothers to Dracula's territory and Nicole would come along with him as well.They were all ready and dressed. Lucas and his brothers had worn their black outfits as if they were going vampire hunting and Andrew was with his small backpack where their masks were kept. Nicole equally wore her favourite colour black to match with those of her fiance and his brothers. They all looked attractive and fierce as they stepped out of the apartment with Lucas holding on to
"But does that mean we won't stop hiding from the vampire hierarchy? Dracula doesn't know we are with you", Ambrosia said. He knew he and his wife could not tag along with the vampire hybrids everywhere they were going to. It was practically impossible, so when the vampire hybrids were not with them how will they be safe?"I'll have that taken care of tomorrow. I'll inform Dracula and his vampires that you are now under my protection. You are now my friend, whatever happens to you or Mary he will answer to me", Lucas said.Ambrosia looked surprised at him. Lucas had just spoken as if he knew and had spoken one on one with Dracula."Oh thank you Lucas, thank you so much. I can come with you when you go to meet him to direct you to his lair", he offered.
Lucas learnt all he could about Ambrosia and Mary as they stayed in their apartment and one thing that stood out for him was that he was the bridge connecting all of them together. He was the link between the witch, the werewolves, the vampire and even the humans. He understood all of them perfectly and he could be the key that could change everything.Lucas had never thought about his role in that light before until now. What he learnt from Mildred was that he was at the top of the food chain and others below them didn't really matter so much.Ambrosia had lived a long life and there was a lot he could learn even from a supposed enemy. Nicole was supposed to be his enemy too as a vampire but through her he learnt how to control his urge to feed on vampires and how to rather drink human blood bags.&
It is now past midnight and again Lord Dracula and a few of his generals have convened at the neutral zone between their territories. Mildred once again kept them waiting as she played her mind games."I hope the others are in place?", Dracula asked. With him was Mathias, Kim and Tasha. Apollo, Cleopatra and Jones had all gone into hiding trying to figure out the hiding spot of Mildred."Yes Lord Dracula", Matthias said. All they were waiting for now was for the witch to show up and she did."Good, you could finally make it and join us!", Dracula said excitedly.Mildred smiled at him. She was still in her translucent form. Her physical body was somewhere else and she was communicating from there
"Do you know who she is?", Lucas said, as he bent some inches away from them, so he was at eye level with them and looked into their eyes just in case they planned to lie to him. If they were truly out to harm Nicole they would try to pull a surprise strike on him, seeing only a few inches separating them or they would try to lie directly to his face. Whichever possibility it was Lucas was prepared for them all."No, we don't. We have never seen her before now!", Ambrosia said, scared to even look Lucas in the face. He had the aura of death surrounding him."And what about you?", Lucas turned, facing the female vampire Mary."Please I do not know her!", Mary begged, almost in tears. She was still holding tightly and pulling on Ambrosia's shirt.
Lucas and Nicole were coming back from the apartment after having a nice time together. They had spent their evening in the central park of the city taking in nature and enjoying each other's warm company. It's been barely over 24 hours since Lucas proposed to Nicole and she had accepted his proposal to marry him. They had fixed their wedding for the following weekend, something lovely but private. Just the 2 of them with Mark and Andrew. Nicole would have loved Angela to come with them but she was nowhere to be found.As they walked into the building hand in hand, both of them happy and smiling, Lucas picked up a strong euphoric smell on the first floor. He was already used to the smell of Nicole, this couldn't be her. He let his sense of smell guide him to his targets and when he opened his eyes he saw two couples ahead of them making their way to the elevator.
