I am pacing back and forth in my room, wondering what my father, the King of Vampires, wanted to discuss with me and my brothers. I'm the oldest, but I have two other brothers, Issac and Mike. Issac is the second oldest, and Mike is the youngest, both of whom are humans. I don't know how that happened, but that is beside the point my dad wanting to talk to me has me on edge. As I continue to pace back and forth, there was a knock on my door, my brother Mike poked his head in thru the door, "Hey bro father is waiting for you" "Okay I will be right there," Mike turned to walk away, I stopped him and said "Do you know what father is wanting to talk to us about," Mike looked up at me and stepped in my room and said "Father wants to marry off Isaac to his long time friends daughter that works in the restaurant and wants him to partner with her to help her run the business but he has to marry her and she has to agree, or she won't be partners he said. "Do you know which daughter it is because there are three of them that work at the restaurant," I said to Mike, and he just shook his head no. We started to leave my room, but our brother just walked in and he was pissed and I mean pissed, he start walking back and forth talking to himself about how he isn't going to marry some peasant. I grabbed Issac by his arm to stop him from pacing some more, and he looked up at me and said, "This is all your fault." I was shocked, Mike was shocked I was getting ready to ask him how is it my fault but was stopped by Mike, he said "Let's just head to father to see what he has to say about all of this and then explain how this is Victor's fault," he said. Issac shrugged his hand off of me and stormed out my door, I stopped Mike and asked him, "Do you think it's my fault, im not even sure how it is my fault,"I said to him, Mike said "No I think he just wants someone to blame for father's decision, come on bro let's go," he said to me. As we were walking to my father's office, I was just thinking about why my brother is blaming me, is it because I'm a vampire and he is not, is it due to me wanting to wait for my mate, so many thoughts were coming to my mind but none were coming except that feeling of dread like what ever happens won't be a good thing. We get to my fathers office, I walk in and sit down in the chair in front of his desk, and my other brothers sit in the other two chairs. It's so silent that you could here a pin drop, im just anxious on what my father is going to say, he just sits and looks at all three of us like he knows we already know of what he is asking Issac to do but the question I want to know is why my brother is mad at me for it, all of these questions of unknown answers is driving me crazy, while thinking about everything I hear my father clear his throat he said "So boys I'm sure you heard the news Issac is going to marry my long time friends daughter that works in the restaurant, I would like for you guys to support your brother on this and you know the Riviera Family is a long time friend of mines and this union between us is a must," said our father. "I have a question said Issac, "Yes what is it son and before you ask your question, the question better not be you saying you don't want to get married to her because that is absolutely out of the question," "Okay, then I was going to ask but my question though is why me, im not the oldest, Victor is that should be his responsibility not me," "Issac you know the answer to that question, your human he is not and we need to keep up pretense in our world and I don't want my friend have to worry about about our world, he doesn't need to know that I am a vampire and besides your brother will be taking over for me, once he gets his mate he has his own responsibility to tend to." My brother just grumbled about how it's not fair and that he should be marrying a supermodel or actress, not some waitress. "Father, I spoke for the first time since we have been sitting in his office. "I wouldn't mind being the one to marry the waitress instead of Issac, and like he said, I am the oldest." My father slammed his fist down on his desk and said no, then got up and walked out of his office, leaving me and my brothers really confused, with fewer answers.
