Years later.

Maya - The Crown Prince’s bride

I asked my best friend to sneak out the walls with me. It was a mission to see my parents.

Reason was today was my birthday. An evil woman named Senora controlled Cithara, the place I lived.

The guards shot at us, but we somehow managed to escape them.

“Didn’t you hear the tales, Maya?”

This person speaking above, is Garza. He is the gate keeper of the graveyard.

“The myth of the night where the Great vampire prince, awakens. The one who has the ability to make the dead undead?”

“I don’t believe in those legends or myths, Garza. I’ll just see my parents as soon as possible and be done with it,”

I replied him.

“You might not believe it, child. But be careful, for whoever awakens him, becomes his bride till eternity,”

I scoffed at his words, breathing it off and leaving Julian with him as he had bad feeling about literally everything.

Here is me now, presently. I’m trying not to be scared because from my experience in horror movies, ghosts didn’t made people die. It was themselves.

As I walked in the shadows, I walked past other graves. As I moved, deeper, there were more mists in the air. For an instant, I thought I saw something ahead of me, but it was gone.

I made a move to bring out Delilah my doll who was the yin to my yang.

“Please protect me, if you can,”

I whispered, timidly, as she was a weird doll I could talk to in my thoughts.

Making my way to my parents’ grave, I halted in front of where they were buried. Looking at the encryptions, boldly written on the epigraph.

“IN MEMORY OF EMILY SANCHEZ AND ROBERT SANCHEZ,” I also looked at the date encodings also. It made me want to cry. Being emotional sucked but… God knew it made me want to cry…

“Mum… dad,” I started off. “I miss you so much…”

“Seeing this makes me think of what would have happened, if we all survived that day.” I continued.

“You both meant so much to me. And right now, I have no one…”

Some tears rolled down my cheek, with Delilah in my hands. I bent down a little, bringing out some flowers and dropping them on each of their graves, respectively.

It was not until a few days after, the search party were able to retrieve their bodies. They looked grey, the exact shadow of themselves and it hurt.

I remembered, crying so hard on the day they were buried.

No one had been by my side, except Senora Savannah telling me they were never going to come back.

“If I had the power, I’d make sure you both came back,” I laid down on their graves, sobbing.

Senora said, I’d better move on and not let it affect my life. She told me some kids never got to see their parents. Her actions was insensitive to me and I hated that she did it that day, of all moments.

“I wish you both would come back!!”

I yelled, angrily with a new set of fresh tears spilling from my eyes. Don’t know why I did this… really.

Suddenly, a gentle breeze whooshed past my face. I raised my head up, when I felt a gentle thud just underneath me. It seemed like a slight earthquake, but I went in tune with it, surprisingly.

Instead on mum and dad’s grave, it seemed like I was in an old room, which contained a tomb.

The room was somewhat dimly lit, with weak lights flaring. I hastily remembered the keeper’s words earlier before I came in.

“There has been a rumor spread by other visitors, over the year. It is said to change its walls in a way, that is out of the ordinary.”

“The myth of the night where the Great vampire prince, awakens. The one who has the ability to make the dead undead.”

“W-Where is this place?” I asked, no one in particular, trying to connect dots.

“C-Could it b-be…”

I gasped instantly. My eyes searched, only to find a stone just ahead. I curiously walked towards it.

The prince had the ability to make the dead undead? Maybe… mayb…

Maybe this was my chance to bring back mum and dad! Or was I just being delusional?

Whatever it was, I was going to try.

I rolled the stone over.

There was a body inside the tomb. It was greyish, the entity looked dead but I could tell it was a man.

And there was an old stake in his chest, just around where his heart lied. My lips firmly pressed against each other, stretching my hand.

“You can do this, Maya.”

Delilah, my talking doll, supported me. Really hope she didn’t switch on me, like Annabelle would.

“Just pull it out and you’ll have your parents.” she added again, “All he has to do, is to help you bring them back to life.”

Determined, I brought out the piece of wood. Just as I unstaked the piece of wood, from the creatures’ chest, I felt a sudden gasp from him.

My hand was suddenly held and hastily removed them, taking two steps back, in fright. The lights in the room, began to twitch.

“W-What the hell’s happening?”

I cursed beneath my breath, looking around as it didn’t stop. Tell me this was not some old way, of telling a horror film girl, that she needed to evacuate the room.

Yet…I needed his help and I wasn’t going anywhere without it! There we go again. Me being an idiot, I hope this didn’t change my life forever.

“Whoever you are, I’m not afraid!” I let out.

“I did what I did because I needed your help. I just want to bring back my parents,” I added, with tears surrounding my eyes in agony.

I immediately heard a rat squeaking in struggle. Slow muffled sounds of someone eating, crunching and swallowing something filled the room that instant.

A growl immediately brought me at alert, directing me to the door. I aimed to run away but a creature appeared in front of me. I was met with dark orb eyes and sexy blood twirls on his mouth, which he licked seductively.

Okay hmmm…

“Not so fast, sweetheart.”

Pale looking, inhuman, I couldn’t breathe of the fact that he was gorgeous though. Even in the dimly lit from, his hair still shone a dark-bluish tone.

It was like he wore some dark makeup, below his eyelids.

Or maybe that was the way, he was born.

This leaves me to one question…

“W-Who are you and how did you… get inside that box?” I shivered on my spot, asking.

“Your best nightmare, princessa.”

I sighed, folding my hands right in front of me and trying to create a distance.

Urrhh…Delilah?

Try not switching an Annabelle on me, too please.

“We’re safe with him.” she weirdly replied.

“And the other question?” I asked the pale looking man.

“That would be for later.” he answered.

“Right now, we have a special occasion to attend to. We must not be late, as the special guests of honor,”

He said, untangling his extremely cold hands from my waist, only to knot them around my wrists.

“W-What? I’m totally not understanding this. Where are we even going to? I don’t even know you; I mean I just met you a few seconds ago!”

“Be quiet, would you? Don’t draw the attention of another creature lurking in the dark,” he cautioned.

“Another creature, lurking in the dark? What do you mean by that?” I scrunched my nose, asking.

“I have so many enemies, little one. Won’t want you to see the inhumane sight of chopping their head off, as you’re human,”

He inched closer, saying. It gave me sensual feelings, but…dammit, his breath stunk!

I blinked lots of times, pinching myself to be sure that I wasn’t dreaming.

“Own a toothbrush?”

I moved away from his lips area.

“No, I was locked in a box for centuries and you expect me to own one?” he smirked replying.

    Javier These children... They were innocent and frail. I didn’t want to put my misfortune on them, so I tried my best to act kind. “We are fine, but we are so scared, uncle Javier.” They said. “We want to leave this dark place. Can you take us away from here, please...?” I squatted, turning on even a bigger light which was more beautiful. It illuminated the room brightly, and they said, “Wow, it’s so beautiful!” “These are the rarest of times darkness turns to light.” I said and they nodded making me pat their head smiling. Couldn’t even remember the last time I smiled. It was like I channeled the hurt of losing my mate to my darkness. I also wondered how my new born would be right now. I couldn’t even support her in the crucial moments. Not that I didn’t try. I had three submarines in the water which I used to wait for her every day. “We love it!” They exclaimed. Love? The last time I experienced that feeling, all I felt was abandonment… “Come on,” I took their hand

    Maya’s POV “I’m gonna name her Ivory if she’s a girl.” “And, if otherwise?” “Ronan-“ “You have to save her and the baby!” I heard Javier exclaim. Seemed like Trixie was in the room with other physicians. “I will do my possible best-“ “Maya!!” someone burst in the room saying. “Oh my God, what happened?” Delilah’s voice faded into background as I heard, “Hand me the defibrillator!!” “And, goodness could someone call Katherine? Her moon powers might just be what we need!” “Maya... stay with me!” Javier’s voice shuddered as I was unconscious. This, was worse than a sleep paralysis... I could hear voices and I couldn’t do anything about it... “We are losing her!” Someone burst into the room. “You sent for me, what’s the issue brother?” Something wet connected my skin, as someone shuddered. I realized it was my mate. My husband, the man I wanted to be with. He was… aching at my state. My hands fisted as I struggled to stay awake and not die. “Her torrent of energy was

    Maya Something about knowing that made me entirely happy. “About time,” I muttered, throwing one at her without wasting no time. She sidestepped it, swimming rapidly towards me. “Do you really think that could stop me?” “I’m not sure but I’m gonna try anyway!” I exclaimed, throwing the second torrent to her. She formed a defense barrier with the staff and as she did, I immediately gathered everything that I could. This time, I merged the two of my hands together propelling the energy towards her. I had to no time, that I was sure of. In fact, any move I made a mistake in, was going to be the death of me and my child. “Urrghh!” As she approached me, I did the same too, “Yahh!!!” Twirling some elements together, I slowly weaved it styling every drop and essentials not forgetting to snake it around her. I had a vampire blood; thus I was swift than her. Hence, she clenched her neck once I hit her. At the same time, I blocked her move with a defensive shield. The Queen gurgled a

    Javier Just as Maya left, I cleared whatever I had to. At least she didn’t get to see the darkest part of me, which I didn’t want her to. “Our King... saved us!” Someone yelled as everything, including Kathleen vanished into thin air. I nodded at Lannister and Fang who stopped fighting too. “Long live the King! Long live the King!” As they said those words, I looked around until something stirred in my heart. “Where is Delilah?” “And... Katherine?” Fang came forward saying. “Rufus isn’t here too.” A flashback came in my head at Queen Zoraida’s word the other day I claimed the crown. “You don’t know what’s coming.” My hands quivered with my mouth, knowing she definitely partnered with Kathleen. It also meant Vladmir had escaped which wasn’t good in one bit. “We need to find them now!” I was quick to exclaim those words and immediately a thousand vampire guards were lined up outside. They commenced to search for them all, when Fang’s Dragon suddenly flew into the palace aren

    Maya “Come with me.” “To where?” “Just come.” “Then what happens when mum comes out?” “Ruin.” Following the visions, I saw were the blue rays as we inserted the torrent of our energies to save the Queen. A strong wind blew each of our hairs. “I-I can’t hold off anymore, it’s getting too strong!” “It will work soon, we just have to hold off for a couple minutes…” I said those words, because my torrent was stronger. As a royalty, I was blessed with a flow of advanced energy. It wasn’t the same for her though, because she was just aMariner without noble blood in her. “Things put to sleep are put there for a reason.” BLAAASTTT! An explosion resonated through, bringing down the stones that surrounded the place. It happened in a swift of an eye as my mother awoke, zapping in my best friend’s energy. “Nooo!!” “Mum, what are you doing to her? Please stop...” But, she didn’t. Even when her face was grey and lifeless. I sobbed at the sight of my friend, struggling for life. “…

    “R-Rufus...” Delilah trailed out, moving to hold Katherine who was the nearest to her. “Teleport us from here, please.”“The Lords sent me here, because you dishonored our agreement and aren’t all in the location you said you’ll be.” The terminator was entirely fast from the way he handled his gun shooting the piercing silver in the skin of Vladmir.“Honey!” Zoraida exclaimed, in hot tears.She knew she had no time; thus, she chanted some spells which caused buzzing flies to surround the exterminator. That was enough to distract him making Rufus crawl hurriedly to his father.“Everyone, gather around father. Quick!” They hurriedly used the last of their energy doing as the Prince said. Instantly, Rufus teleported them out of there. They landed at the shore of a vast sea which spread across several acres of land. Katherine disconnected herself from her mother who currently held her, moving towards her big sister who was engrossed on the white sand. “You brought us to the shore?”“It w
