Chapter Two

Three months later

Prince George POV

It has been three months and my people are still crying for help pertaining to the beast sucking their livestock dry while my dreams are getting worse by the day . If I am being honest I am now well aware that I am the beast troubling people in my kingdom because what else would explain me waking up in the middle of the night with thirst and waking up the following day by my father ‘ s grave with blood stains on my teeth .

Please believe me when I say that I am not doing any of this intentionally and I have even tried doing everything in my power to stop myself but I have failed with every attempt to stop . It is just that my thirst for blood overpowers me every single night and it infuriates me the most to know that I am the cause of my people ‘ s grief . The fact that everyone thinks that there is an intruder from outside who is after the people's livestock and their lives while all along it is none other than the prince they adore the most ,  hurts to even think about it . It eats me up inside to even think about the pain and sorrow I am putting them through because I know most of them adore me .

I just wish people knew about the strange things I have been enduring by myself . I have questions that I need answers to , I feel like there is a puzzle in my life which has a missing piece . A part of me tells me that I should tell everyone the truth so that they help me figure out what is happening to me but another part of me really yearns for answers I will not get if people think of me as a monster .

‘’ Your garce , finally after months it has been confirmed that the monster that has terrorized the people of this kingdom is in fact a vampire . ‘’ One of the royal guards says to me when I ask about yet another meeting my uncle attended without me . This is not how I was expecting to get answers about who I am . A vampire !

‘’ What ! A vampire in our kingdom , how is that even possible ? ‘’ I respond to the royal guard who tells me that the king and his people have found a perfect solution to capture and kill the vampire troubling them , which is unfortunately me .

‘’ Prince George , if you want to know about the meetings I attend why don’t you just ask me ? Are you unable to ask me straight to my face about the meetings because you are avoiding me , to avoid talking about your marriage ? ‘’ My uncle asks me as he enters my bedroom where he finds me and the royal guard secretly talking about the meetings he attends without me and yes ! I am avoiding my uncle because I do not want us to talk about the marriage he is trying to convince me about .

‘’ No uncle I am not avoiding you at all . I just think we have to focus on solving the matter at hand before arranging my marriage with the princess of your choice . ‘’ I respond to my uncle who is still adamant about me getting married .

‘’ Prince George , there is no need for you to worry about the vampire because soon it will be dealt with . Right now I need you to prepare to welcome your future wife the princess who will one day be Queen besides you . One more thing , the vampire hunter we hired will arrive tommorow so please be ready to welcome her first thing tommorow morning . I have important business to attend to , so I will not be present . ‘’ My uncle says to me before aggressively walking out of my bedroom before I could say anything .

This is a messs I do not think I will be able to get myself out of . I am the vampire that is troubling my people , therefore if I welcome the vampire hunter my secret might be exposed to my people . I definetly have to stay up all night to try to find any information that might help me disguise myself to protect a secret that can possibly destroy lives .
