Ellis Finds Out Why He's Been Kept Hidden

A new morning dawns as everyone gathers for breakfast. Setting the table Dorothy sees Jane has not arrived yet, so she asks Jane's mom to which she says she was still in the bath and would be down soon. So, Dorothy starts serving everyone.

Edward and the boys finish their breakfast and seeing Ellis eating slowly Edward asks, "Ellis, stop worrying about Sophia. She won't harm Jane."

"It's not only about Jane, and anyways now no one can even think about harming Jane but, I'm worried about you guys and aunt (looking at the boys). If I'm not around and Jared or Sophia do something….

Intervening Dorothy says, "Ellis, Jane's mom is staying here. Within a hundred yard radius she's safe. As for the boys, you and Edward should be nearby."

Just then Jane comes and apologizes for the delay and sits. Dorothy tells her it's OK and serves her breakfast. Seeing Jane is wearing a scarf around her neck, Clive says smiling, "Hey, the scarf suits you. You should wear it often but if you go color-coordinated, it would be better."

"Jane don't bother with him," says Joel, "If you get stuck with his color-coordination world you'll be left wearing black and white."

"Hey, '' retorts Clive, " Black and white are the ultimate colors that blend with every color."

Just then a knock on the door gets everyone's attention. Finding it odd, Edward says, "Everyone stay here. I'll check."

Edward opens the door and sees it's an old friend. Surprised Edward asks him to come in, but the vampire says he can't as the Cosmos ruler is inside. He's not capable of coming under the same roof. He says he came to give a letter. On Edwards insistence he comes inside.

Coming to the dining room Edward says, "Ellis, (gesturing with his hand towards the vampire) he's Orlando. He was one of the fighters from your fathers squad and part of the last battle."

Ellis gets up and comes towards them. On seeing Ellis in front of him Orlando bows and hails Ellis and says, "Ruler of the Vampire world, it's a great honor to meet you and I'm glad you're well. Our men are on the lookout for Jared and Sophia. Once caught they won't be spared."

Beginning of Ellis says, "Look I'm no ruler, and what men?."

Replying to Ellis, Edward says, "Ellis, even though you don't live in your castle, or have not succeeded to the throne after your father, you are the Cosmos ruler. You were next in line till your father was alive. The moment he died, you were the ruler. Just the way I hid you from the rival vampire clans, your men or fighter vampires also went into hiding. And, the reason was our wait for you to grow and attain your full powers which you have. Now, it's time to announce the Vampire Ruler is back."

Dorothy steps forward and places her hand on Ellis's shoulder and says, "This is the moment we've been waiting for. For you to take over and put an end to all the slaughtering vampires and restore peace between vampires and humans."

"Slaughtering vampires," says Clive, like he saw a ghost.

Replying, Edward says, "Clive, even today there are vampires who kill humans for flesh and blood. Did you forget Jared, he's one of them. Vampires like him have no place on earth and are to be banished. That's the Cosmos treaty that's been upheld for millennia and will never be broken. Now, it's Ellis's turn to uphold the treaty and make sure all vampires follow it."

Getting hold of himself Ellis speaks up, "OK, this is a bit fast track. And, can we use less of this ruler stuff? I feel like I'm in a period movie. Castle, ruler, wow."

Smiling Dorothy says," You were too young when your father got killed and it's been thousands of years since, so, obviously you don't remember you were born in the Cosmos castle. Since we left the castle, I cast a spell on it so no one can see it, till I un-cast the spell."

But, before everything else, there is one vital requirement for the Cosmos ruler - he has to have a wife. So, you'll have to choose one soon. Though you haven't met any vampire girl after Sophia. So, what's your intention."

"I know about the wife part." Says Ellis replying, "Don't worry she's already chosen."

"What!" both Dorothy and Edward say shocked.

"Guys," says Ellis calmly, "I knew from the beginning that's why after making a mistake with Sophia I decided to back off from girls cause I knew one wrong choice could endanger the entire vampire world, the world my father got killed for. Whoever it'll be, she'll be the one who's born to be my wife. This time, no mistake. Rest assured. Oh, and Orlando, when you're dealing with Jared or Sophia be sure not to harm Ronny. He's being used, he's not intentionally involved."

"Sir, don't worry. I'll inform the others to be careful as well," says Orlando.

"Ah, Orlando, can you just call me Ellis," says Ellis shyly.

Smiling Dorothy says, "Ellis, Orlando is a fighter of your battalion, it may sound periodic now, but he has his rules to follow. You're the ruler so no name."

And, so Orlando takes leave. Getting back to the dining table Ellis sees the envelope and opens it. Ellis shows it to Edward asking him what's the meaning of the letter.

Replying, Edward says, "Ellis, there are a total of 450 vampire clans. 410 clans have pledged their loyalty to you. The other 40 clans are under the influence of Zoravik. He's the opposite of everything your Cosmos bloodline worked hard to maintain. Zoravik was killed by your father in a fair battle but his brother Milavik swore to avenge your father, but before that your father got killed in the last battle between the good and bad vampire clans, and his revenge remained in his heart and now he's waiting for you. That's why we've kept you hidden for so long. We thought if everything was forgotten and as long as you're safe, it was all that mattered. But, we forgot you lost your parents, we lost our freedom. Now, your people want you back, they want their freedom back. It's time to avenge your parents."
