“Ahh”, I scream as I wake up in a foreign bed. I remember dying. I remember feeling my life drain away. Why couldn’t I have died. I would rather die than know that my mother is the one that killed me. Although I do feel different. I jump as I hear someone coming. I look around to find a weapon but then my mother walks in. I’m so surprised. I thought she had killed me,so why would she visit me? “What are you doing here in here Morrigan” I say with a sneer. “ I’m your mother, I don’t need an excuse to see you.”she argues back.” I think that you lost the right to call me your son when you plunged a dagger in my heart.” I say with all my anger. She just looks at me with these sad eyes, and I almost instantly regret saying it, but then I remember what she did to me and how she made me feel. “Why am I here, I thought you killed me.” I demand. “ I did kill you, but the blood of your father, that's coursing through your veins right now,saved you. That is how your father survived when Vlad killed him.”she explained. “Well why are you in here.” I questioned. “ Oh, your father wants to see you in our living quarters.” I leave the room in search of their living quarters. I can’t believe I’m actually alive. “Watch where you're going.” I hear an unknown voice call out. Then I turn around and I see a really hot guy. “W-Who are y-you?” I say with a weak voice. “ I’m Alex” he says in a sultry voice. “ Oh, my name is-” I start. “ I don’t give a f**k what your name is.” He retorts very rudely, and walks away. Well he’s in a bad mood today. I finally get to their quarters and I see Alex laughing with Salem, along with some girl. They see me walk in and immediately stop talking. “ You’re finally here. Took you long enough.” He says to me. “Sorry, father, I got a bit held up on the way.” I spit. The girl and Alex’s eyes go wide and their mouths fall open when I say the word father. “ You might wanna close your mouth you two or you’re going to catch something with it.” I say with an attitude. They instantly close it, and Alex sneers at me.
“Hush all of you, I called you here because I have someone I want to introduce to you.” He explains. “This is Luna, your fiance.” He says like he didn’t just decide my future. “Yeah no, I don’t know if you know this, but I’m gay.” I say in a panic.“ And I’m a lesbian.” Luna pipes up. “ Next thing you’re gonna tell me is that Alex is gay too. Get that thought out of your minds because you’re marrying each other whether you like it or not.” He says sternly. “ But I am gay, sir.” He says with a smirk. Salem just stands there with his mouth open. “What do you mean your gay. Since when have you been gay. I hope you know this changes nothing.” He says in a rush. “What, why do I even have to marry her? We both have already said that we don’t want to. I should be able to marry who I want to.” I argue. “I don’t care what you think. Your mother and I have already decided that you are going to marry Luna.” he says back. “My mother? You mean the one that plunged a dagger in my heart, and let your people torture me.” I say with sass. “That was so your Erlking blood would be activated. When our earthly bodies die our creature comes out. Since you are only half blooded you do not look like me.” He explained. “Wait what, so I’m half erlking.” I ask “You are, and that's why you survived. You must have wondered how you survived after we tortured you. You must have wondered how you're not dead in a ditch somewhere.” he said. “Well of course I do, but I thought that Morrigan maybe did something.” I say, a little embarrassed. “Your mother had to convince me. In all honesty I didn’t even know you were my son until your mother told you that I was your real father. I thought you were that bastard’s child. Now, all of you leave. Go prepare for the wedding, it's in 3 months.” he says. I stood there shocked at what he said. In three months I have to get married to a woman that I don’t even know, let alone love. Not to mention that I’m gay. We all leave the room and walk to our rooms, and it turns out Alex’s room is right next to mine. I walked into my room to find all my belongings all over the place like someone was trying to find something.
