Vampires Kiss by Delaney Curd (best mystery novels of all time .TXT) 📕

back what was once ours. Our past king was not capable of filling the role my parents left. So he has passed this on to me, the person it was originally ment for. I was not ready for a long time, but I am now. This will be the best of times that I have had power. The past times I have held the throne, I was not in full control of my memories, or of myself. But that has changed, and I promise you here and now, we will have this world again, and we will have the humans bowing at our feet!" At this, there are cheers from everyone, and nobody is left sitting in their seats. After everybody calms down I continue. "Now, I need to know where everybody stands in our courts." I walk down from the platform, and up the the Alpha of the werewolve pack. I put my right hand over my heart, and bow to him. I see him bow back, so I come out of the bow.

"Who do you and your pack stand with in the court? Will you continue to be the vampires day time protectors? And will you except a seat on the council?"

"My pack and I stand with you my queen. We will always be the vampires daytime protectors. And it would be a disgrace to you if I were to turn down a seat on the council. But may my son take my seat on the council as he is more learned in the ways of the court?" As the Alpha says this his Beta, and son, steps forward, and bows to me with his hand over his heart.

"Thank you for your commitment to the vampires. And the council would be honored to have your son as your representative." We bow one more time, and I move on to the witches.

"Who do you and your coven stand with in the court? Will you continue to work with the warlocks, in protecting the Council and all within it? And will you except a seat on the council?"

"My coven and I follow you, your majesty. We will work with the warlocks, as long as they will work with us. And yes I will except a seat on the council." We bow, and I walk away to the warlocks.

"Who do you and your coven stand with in the court? Will you continue to work with the witches, in protecting the Counicil and those within? Will you except a seat on the council?" The warlock leader awnsers just the same as the others have so far. I walk to the fairie queen, and bow. She doesn't bow back, but I stand anyway.

"Who do you and your fairies stand with in the court? Will you continue to be our healers, and our spies? Will you except a seat on the council?" I wait for an awnser, but it seems as if the Fairie Queen, she insists on being called that even though I'm the real queen, will never awnser.

"We might stand for you my queen, if you can prove that your full vampire side has awoken. Tamlian! Come up here!" The fairies start splitting apart to let one of them through. A male fairie breaks through the ranks, and stands in front of the Fairie Queen, and turns his back to me, which is something he should not have done. It is one of the worst disrespects one can do to a person of royalty or of the council. The second he does this, all of the vampires start to hiss, and come closer, while I hear a few of the werewolves shift, and the warlocks and witches start weaving spells. I put my hand up to silence all of their worry. Something about this boy smells... familliar. He turns, and I see why. Before I realize what might happen because of it, I am on the boy, drinking, tasting his memorys.

I am walking through a crowd, towards what will give me my wings. I see a vampire on top of a girl, the girl I will kill, and forcing his blood down her throat. He pulls away, looks up at me and nods. I walk up to her, raise my knife, and as I do she looks up at me, pleading with her eyes, but before I can think to much about it, I bring the blade down, and rush it into her chest. As I do, the prince pushes through the crowd screaming her name.

I pull myself of the boy, and back into my own mind. I look at him laying on the floor passed out from all the blood I took, then I see the queen looking at me an smiling. "The Fairie court stands with you my queen. We would be delighted to be envolved in the doings of the court, so yes we will except a seat on the council, and we will also continue to work with the witches and warlocks." She bows, and all the other fairies follow her lead. I walk away, leaving them in their positions, which is rude, but at this moment I don't care. I walk up to Andy, he bows with his right hand crossed over his chest. I nod and he rises. I take his hand,we hear the murmurs, as this is never done until one is married, and we walk up the stairs to our seats. Still holding his hand, we turn and face the court. We sit in our seats, and watch as each of the representatives of the covens, and packs walk forward and take their seats beside us. On the left beside me are the witches rep, then the warlocks rep, and on Andys side, the wolves rep, and the fairies rep beside him. After everybody is seated, the court bows to us, and that is when the doors bust open, and a guard runs through the room, up to my seat and whispers in my ear, "There are humans in the lobby. They want to stay here. What do I do?"

I look at him with bewilderment in my eyes. "Have you never had a human try to stay here before?" He shakes his head. "Show me where." We walk out of the throne room, down a few hallways, and to the lobby where I was turned.

"Hello. How may I help you?" The humans jump, not having heard us walk in. The man turns and looks at me, and I almost have a heart attack. That is I would have if my heart was still beating. Standing in front of me is my father, or step father I mean.

"Schylar? Is, Is that you?"

"Yes sir, it's me." He smiles, with tears in his eyes, and rushes at me. He hugs me tightly, holding me to him as if he hasn't seen me in years.

"Oh honey. I was so worried when you didn't come home after a few weeks, and you would never answer your cell. I thought you were dead." It's then that he starts to notice a few differences in me. "Schy, why are you so cold? You're skin is freazing! Are you sick what's wrong with you? Your skin is so-"

"Daddy I need you to listen to me. Do you remember what those people who gave me to you told you and mom about me?" He nods so I continue. "They were telling the truth. I'm a vampire." He takes a step back and looks at me. I mean really looks at me.

"It's not possible. They were just jerking our legs around. You're not really a vampire. Vampires are something of myth and, and legend. You can't be one you're my daughter." It's then that the women, who I had assumed to be my mother, walks to us and I see her face. She's not my mother, but my best friend.

"What is going on Dad? Why are you here with Blaine?" He looks at the ground, then up at me, then the ground again, and then at Blaine.

"Blaine and I have been, well, we've had, been-"

"What your Dad is trying to say is that he and I have been having a relationship since we were in eighth grade." Blaine just out right says it, not even sounding like she's worried about how I'm going to take this.


"Dad, I understand you not wanting to be with mom, and wanting to cheat on her, but why with my best friend? Why Blaine?" He doesn't look at me, just keeps his eyes trained on the ground. I turn to the vampire at my right. "Get them rooms. Seperate rooms. Far apart. I don't want them anywhere near each other." I turn to walk back into the council room to finish up there.

"Who the hell are you to tell me when I can and can't see my boyfriend?" Blaine says after me. I turn to look at her, then walk away again. She rushes after me. "Hey bitch, I'm talking to you! Why are you just walking away? Stop and talk to me!" I stop, turn and look at her.

"Listen and listen closely. I have been around for millions of years, all the vampires have, and we will have power again. You are nothing in our eyes. You will do as I say, or the second I snap my fingers your head will no longer be attached to your body. Understand?" She just looks at me, so I turn and walk away. She makes a noise in the back of her throat, but is otherwise silent. A few seconds later, I am back in the council room, and everybody stops their talking, and watches me walk up to my seat and sit down.

"Everything is handled up front. Is there anything anyone wishes to say? Anything I should be told?" A few of the wolves start murmurring. "Yes? Bring forward whatever you wish to speak of." Two wolves holding, almost dragging, and boy step forward, and bow at my feet. "Stand please. What can I help you with?"

"Well ma'am, this boy, he is bound to change in a month, but we discoverd that he has been giving information to the human president about us. Normally the wolves would have him killed, but what do you wish?"

"Continue in the way you would have yesterday." The wolves nod and carry the boy away, and out of the room. "To the court I will say this, If you have past transgressions to take care of, take care of them in the way you would have before I was queen. Any new transgressions though, must be brought before the Council and I. Unless there is more business to take care of, you are all dismissed."

Everybody gets up and shuffles out of the room, talking amongst themselves. I turn to Andy, and he smiles at me. I hug him, laying my head on his sholder, until somebody behind us clears his throat. I pull away from Andy, but he hangs onto my hand. I see the boy who works
