Blood Lust

A flash of light brightened the dark sky for the fraction of a second. A loud, ear-splitting noise followed. In the gust of the thunderstorm, a lady, dressed in a black cape was running as fast as she could. She was trying to find a cover from the heavy downpour. The splashing of water was heard as she sprinted to her destination with a sigh of relief. She bent down, placing her basket in front of an old, rusty metal door.

"I am sorry darling, this is for the well-being of us all." She whispered and turned around, leaving the basket without turning around even once. Behind the deafening thunder and the relaxing pitter-patter of the rain, the miserable cry of a baby could be heard. The next morning, an elderly woman opened her door to the sight of a cute baby, calmly sleeping in a hamper along with her daily newspapers. She gasped and took the small human into her arms, cooing at its cuteness. "Welcome to the family baby." She said, with a motherly smile. Picking the brownish wickerwork box, she saw the name of the baby embroided on it. "Nice to meet you Alicia." the grey-haired woman grinned, pinching the cheeks of the infant.

Nineteen years later, Alicia grew up into a wonderful lady with a great personality. Her ocean blue eyes stayed the same, with as much innocence she had when she was younger. Her medium length, ash blonde hair would always be tied up in either a messy bun or a ponytail. She was extremely beautiful. Alicia would have been even more attractive if destiny was not playing games with her. She was an orphan, trying her best to keep up with college and work. The young girl was trying her best to juggle between the two without realizing that she was missing the joys in life. Alicia never had a boyfriend. She never went to parties, never tried to dress up fashionably like her other friends and always had dark circles under her eyes. However, she never lamented on her life. She accepted her destiny without any trouble.

However, her destiny becomes harder to accept as a vampire king, Ethan King tries to make her his. Alicia tries her best to resist the tempations which were attached to the supernatural being but in vain. She cannot get him out of her head as if she is being possessed by him. The vampire also has some kind of obsession towards the female even if it does not seem so at first. When the past of an orphan and the present of a royal vampire entangles, something is bound to happen. They were both not prepared for such a fiery, passionate love story. When destiny is laid upon them, they cannot escape it no matter how strong, rich or headstrong they are. Ethan was learning this in the harsh and hard way but he was going to overcome it and show his pride as the superior of every single vampires.
