Bloodlust

Chapter 1

The night air filled with lust and blood. The capital of the world, Vampiras, was a mixture of humans and vampires. The most mixed of any city in the world, where there was an equality of vampire and human ran businesses. But, at the top of the food chain, was the worlds most influential vampire. Melody Rose. 

She had a huge house at the top of a large hill, and directly through the doors, there was a throne bigger than need be. Melody could sit on a pillow and still empower anyone in the world. 

Down below, in the city center, all the vampires were out because it was night time. The time for them to prowl... Only, they can't prowl how they do in other cities. There was a strict rule of no feeding on anyone in the city streets. Sort of like how its illegal to have an open bottle of alcohol out in the streets. There were clubs specifically for feeding, and even then it was very hard for some people to feed. There were feeding rooms and you had to have 100% consent from both parties. 

Arabella, a meager 19 year old human, was wandering around the streets. She was looking to be fed upon, she was sick of her life at home, and even though Vampires were always a favorite subject of hers, the fact that she couldn't find one to be marked by was frustrating her more than anything. Marking was the most special of bonds between a vampire and a human. And now she was desperate for an escape. 

She took a piece of broken glass and cut her arm, only slightly, and smeared the blood all over her open skin. The limited amount of clothes she had on made it almost impossible for a vampire to not see all the major veins pumping the blood throughout her body. She was already attracting a large group of vampire-folk, all of them wondering what the hell she was doing. 

"Drain me please!" She yelled at the vampires. A few were smelling the air intently, their fangs retracted. As much as they wanted to not go against the function of the city, her blood was so attractive to them.

The maintainers of the city had not even heard about this yet and so were not on the scene. The whole of the cities 100 years of obedience were about to be ruined. Riots and feeding would take place immediately as soon as the first bite was taken. A few vampires were closing in and the female human was bouncing on the inside with joy at the thought of having a final, beautiful moment. 

All of a sudden, there was wind in the girls hair and the loudest hissing/growl noise that could be heard throughout the city. There was an arm wrapped around the girls waist and a woman was crouched before her, spinning in a circle around Arabella, making sure to always have a hold on her, as if almost protecting her, while she stared down every single vampire there. They all quit their predatory stance and cowered down. 

The female vampire covering the girl straightened up just as the human mischief maker was about to exclaim and demand to be told who she was. Arabellas' mouth closed and she knelt down at the realization of who this was. The vampires hair was red, both bright and dark mixed. Her face didn't need makeup, it was naturally the most beautiful face you had ever seen.

Before Arabella could get out one word of apology though, her hair was grabbed and she was pulled up, her feet leaving the ground with what looked like ease on Melody's part. 

"Who the fuck are you to try and destroy 100 years of my ruling? Of all my hard work?!" She was screeching at the human in her grasps. From miles away even a human could hear it, in another state a vampire would still make out that the ruler was severely mad. 

"I-I," Arabella started stuttering. Melody looked her up and down and in a flash of wind they were up the hill and through the doors to Melodys mansion. Everyone knows that Melody is the fastest vampire in the word, but Arabella got the wind knocked out of her by how fast; her mind was blown as well as her body as it was basically thrown against the hall-way wall.
