TO BEING VERY SURE...

Ambrosia stormed out of her mother's chamber with so much fury and anger pent inside of herself that all she wanted was to cause destruction and destroy everything that got in her way.

The guards on standby did not dare to look up at the princess walking away. Their eyes were strained on the ground.

Her feet were barely touching the ground. She was almost flying and her sharp eyes were aimed at the opened terrace and she would fly away.

As she took speed and her feet lost in any contact with the cold ground, but in between came Queen Delilah and she had to apply breaks.

Queen Delilah did not expect that and she skidded to the side. Ambrosia stopped and turned to look at the Queen who was holding onto one of the pillars for support.

When she came here from the guest's chamber to talk with the Queen of Saunders and her daughter, the Princess alone, she was not expecting to be completely run over by a flying vampire.

"Strangers are not allowed in this part of the castle."

Ambrosia said, looking at the Queen. She stood up straight and right then the messenger came in.

"The Queen wanted to meet your mother, Princess."

"You mean the Queen?"

Ambrosia asked, peeking at the messenger. The middle-aged man was confused and horrified at the same time. He just nodded his head.

"Well then, she is inside her chamber. The Queen can show herself in."

Saying that Ambrosia was about to leave but Delilah stopped her, holding onto her wrist and it made the Princess glare.

"I would rather desire to have a bit of your time than with your mother."

Delilah let out, not letting go of the fair wrist of the Princess, she was holding onto, afraid that she would fly away just like that in the flutter of an eye.

"What business could a Queen have with someone who is not a Queen?"

"Yet...you will become a Queen when you marry my son."

Delilah cut off Ambrosia short. She eyed the Queen with her scrutinizing gazes and the Queen was not fazed by it.

It was very hard for any ordinary human to match an eye with a vampire. Their sharp eyesight would make anyone nervous and cower in fear.

But not the Queen and neither her little boy...after all, they were the Royals. Could it be the reason why?

"Conversing in the hallway to the Queen's chamber is forbidden, Your highness, Princess."

The messenger interrupted and it made both Delilah and Ambrosia look away and toward the man in between them.

Delilah nodded and glanced at Ambrosia, silently asking where they could talk.

"Follow me, your highness!"

The young Princess mouthed in a mocking tone, snatching away her wrist from the Queen's hold and Delilah followed behind without a word.

Throughout the hallway, they did not speak. Delilah could not help but notice how the edges of the gown of the Princess were barely touching the ground. She was flying slowly ahead of the Queen.

It made her wonder how could her young son would adapt to a being like that.

A vampire.. blood-sucking monster that had special abilities.

In the land of Mortals, it was forbidden. Any cross-relationship between two different species was banned.

The Elder King of the Mortals hated these species. He considered them the enemy of the whole mankind.

He took part in the Dark Era Battle: the battle for power and dominance to keep away these species from the land of the nation.

In a time when vampires and werewolves were at war with each other for control, humans stayed away but when the question arose what would happen if the battle came to the doorstep of the kingdoms of the mortal blood?

Queen Ranavalona, wife of King Ranavalon, great-great-grandfather to King Delaware, she despised any species other than her own.

And it was upon her instigation that her husband, the King declared war against these unwanted cursed immortal species on the face of the earth.

The Battles that occurred, innumerable in number, lost in the pages of history in the Dark Era had forever stained the relationship between these species although they came in for a peace settlement when a population vacuum happened all around the world.

And here who would have thought that the future Queen of the Mortals would be taking such a decision of marrying away her son, the future heir to an impure species?

"Say away anything you wanted to say right here."

Ambrosia stopped all of a sudden making the Queen halt on her steps too. She felt like she was wasting away her time fooling around with a mortal Queen.

"Can we not head to your chamber or mine ?"

Delilah proposed, looking around, they were still in the middle of the hallway, although quite far away from the Queen's.

But being a Queen, talking in privacy became the way of conversing got the Queen of Mortals.

"I think we are fine here. Either you can speak it all out here or let me go hunting and not waste my time?"

Ambrosia sassed. Delilah raised her hands up gesturing for her to stop.

"Were you not on your way to meet my son in the backyard garden?"

Delilah asked. It was decided that the Princess and the Prince would be talking to each other, in a way to get to know each other in the garden, all by themselves.

"What made you think I follow orders?"

Ambrosia retorted back. The Queen chuckled, exactly knowing that she must be a fool to even think the Princess was going to follow any of what she was asked to do.

"It is going to be so hard for you to be a Queen in our land.

You listen to no one, or awe an answer why not?"

The Queen smiled. The Princess rolled her eyes, shaking her head negatively.

"You are very sure to think I will marry your son?"

"Yes...Im, Princess. If you want to help protect your land from the enemies that bring the night with them, you need our army and an alliance is what will seal the future of the land of Saunders."

The Queen voiced out, taking a step forward toward the Vampire Princess.
