Trinity's Blood - authoroffantasy- Faire Lucas (comprehension books txt) 📗

Puppet took me down into the basement of the house as everyone upstairs were speaking of me and then I heard “them” arrive. It had only been a few weeks and yet I felt like I could not hear nor talk to anyone about this but Reese and Puppet…no my sisters…MY sisters…they told me I should for it wasn’t natural to not tell anyone. So about three days ago I had confessed, that the leader of the damn Night Council had loved me. No, it was more than that; he planned on making me his wife and turning me! But with everything going on I kind of just passed by like a leaf in the air as I studied all that took place after. I could feel it, my death, coming soon and wishing now wasn’t going to do anything so I tried to get as much fun as possible. Besides I only had two weeks left until I was as dead as gone. This, unfortunately for the others, wasn’t at all bad with me. I had found three out of the four things I wanted in life and with them I would treasure the memories that went with. Smiling, as Puppet held me close in her arms and whispered that everything was alight and that the Night Council will not get past her to me, I whispered back into her ear that I was happy.

“Puppet, can I tell you something?”

“Yes, anything.”

“Do I?”

My breath went short as the voices got a little louder and my name froze the air to ice as all settled down again and I turned back to Puppet.

“Do you what?”

“Do I…look helpless to you? Do I look weak?”

“You went against my will power, that’s amazing Trinity. So in my words you are far beyond compare to any human I have ever known. And I love you, you’re my sister.”

“But…but I’m not…I’m not like you Puppet. I’m different in so many ways. I can die from sickness I can eat food and I can feel the nature all around me but you guys…your all vampires. I’m different because I’m…”

“Human makes no difference to me, Trinity, you have blood and I have blood. Let us just be happy that we are safe and our blood remains in contact with our bodies.”

“I hate being human…”

It was a whisper but she had heard it and silenced immediately as if there was nothing to say about that but we both knew there was. She could turn me now and save me from the massacre that was about to take place up ahead, if the Night Council’s leader really wanted me, she would only place her fangs by my soft neck and pierce it as she would drink the humanity and suffering away replacing it with power and a new responsibility of being a newly turned…

“They are arguing.”

“About what?”

It was pointless to ask for I knew they were arguing over me, Tristian and Kendrew; aka the Night Council Leader, over me! Why would they fight or bicker over a human, someone who was destined by fate to never know the real world but to die so young? Why am I different? Why, Allen and Vickie, would you leave me in the middle of this? Why, my parents, would you do this?!

“Trinity, you know I would change you if I could.”

Puppet began to tear up and up above I heard Kendrew yelling at Tristian and what seemed to be fighting. It was so blurred that all I did was pay attention to Puppet and listen to her cries as she babbled on.

“But he wouldn’t let me, I want to save you, but he said…he said that…that…that he would. Tristian promised me he would turn you before you died and save you but he’s dying now and I can’t do anything but cry because I promised him, also, that I would not turn you and…and I’m so sorry because you’ll never see us and the last memory if you do get changed by that idiot Kendrew, will be of us dying!”

Her words struck me but I could only stare into space as suddenly Xavier’s words popped into my mind as he was speaking to me with his power.

He’s done fighting, Tristian held him off long enough for the Night Council to come to an agreement that no harsh measures will be made now. But they do want to see you Trinity…
I couldn’t answer him because his power was only one way but I knew if he sent me word it was alright with Sally and William. Puppet now eyed me as I told her the message and she replied with a swift jerk of my body and up the stairs we flew till we safely were outside and walked into the front door. It was so crazy, those next few minutes, because it turns out that not only the Night Council had lied but indeed they did come to take me and that’s exactly what Kendrew had planned. There were screams, I even saw Tristian rushing forward to reach for my hand as I tore away from the vampires’ strains and tried so hard to get to him, but Kendrew ordered the Night Council to hold off the family who I loved so much. But then to my next surprise I discovered my two weeks had gone up, and slowly, oh so slowly I felt the coughing edge and take over as if my humanity had erased from my empty body…


“She was so still, Kendrew, she won’t make it.”

“Tristian, shut up! She will! For she is far from anything I have ever seen and if it is true, if Puppet was truly beyond what the eye can see and she made it in time, then Trinity IS alive.”

“Puppet even said her vampire blood wasn’t making it in time to the heart, her human heart had already given out no thanks to your damn Night Council followers, I bet now you wished you would have left us alone!”

“I am truly sorry, Tristian, but just like you I have found her between those small holes in my sorrowful heart that actually filled with her innocence. She is a tough one, stronger than the forefathers of our race, but she is as small and delicate as a simple red rose that symbols us as peaceful.”

“Damn it Kendrew, do not even speak so kindly now! You know she doesn’t love you and I will stop at nothing to keep her far away from this race and all the secrets within it. Just please, no more soft spoken words, we are enemies now and will never be friends.”

“I hope dearly that that is just anger speaking for as a Night Council leader I do have the authority of a vampire’s death, even if it does mean nothing and only saddens my people. But don’t worry Tristian, for the sake of her waking up to a brighter day, I will not kill your family for interfering but instead have all of you come live with me and the Night Council in Venice. Italy would be a lovely place for her to start off as a newly turned wouldn’t it?”

I had been listening for thirty minutes but as they spoke of newly turned my body shook violently as I recalled what had happened before I…well…kind of died. The screams were coming from the Night Council as they had tried to keep…Puppet! She was killing them furiously and without a doubt! She was incredible and invincible, undeniably fast! Then…then…everything was changed. I was changed by her.

“Tristian…”

“She’s coming to her senses and I’m sure she won’t want to see you Kendrew.”

His voice was filled with hate and I heard Kendrew silently whisper he would leave tonight but be back to check on me and at that point he seemed almost like a child. As if Kendrew the Night Council Leader, was Kendrew the human boy who wishes only to be loved...by me. I shook now trying to get that thought out of my head as I awoke to Tristian’s face smiling sadly over my aching body.

“What happened?”

“You should have already known by now…”

“I mean…well yes…but Puppet she was so…fast!”

“No yelling, the aches will only get worse and luckily you even made it through the change even after ten minutes of death. It truly is a miracle.”

“You’re a miracle.”

Tristian scooped me up in his arms as we laid there, hearing ones heart not beating until I heard it start…he had changed into a human as what his power was able to do, and I nearly cried for not being able to do the exact same thing. Before I could say no more he led me back into the living room and my family, and a few members of the Night Council, were waiting for me. As I came to a halt I noticed Puppet, in the far corner of the room adjacent to me, trembling. The next thing I knew I was over at her side, my hands to stop her trembles as she looked up at me with detestation but not for me, but for herself.

“Puppet, you saved me.”

“No! Don’t say that!”

My shock was cheerless, even though I wanted to scream back she did no doubt, I couldn’t because I really wasn’t there after she came at me. Sally and William came up behind me, I could sense it with my vampire powers, but I still watched Puppet who was sobbing. Then as my parents placed their cold hands on my shoulders, I faced them with my reddened eyes, and nearly pounced at their throats. After that I could hear Devin and Xavier snarling like mad dogs then something escaped my mouth, it in return, was a snarl as well then everything settled down.

“I...I’m so sorry Sally…William…I don’t know what happened.”

“You’re thirsty, Trinity, you need to feed.”

William had asked Reese to take me to drink even though I wanted Tristian or Puppet, but rather than arguing, I set off into the woods with my sister in hunt for an animal. I was, indeed, unaware at the point that I was a vampire and that I was chasing a deer wanting…no…needing its blood. The very moment I pierced its skin with my fangs I moaned for the blood was to be relished.

“Reese, I…I know we haven’t been close in all but…”

“Be quiet, you cause nothing but pain! Ever since you came here, that’s all you cause, pain!”

My eyes blurred from the tears, while I went to Reese, as she had watched me from a distance in disgust.


“But I…”

“Puppet hates you. She now, as in forever, will always hate you. Do you know when a woman, or man, turns a human of the same sex they begin to hate each other? Did you even think she would, as she will and you as well, will try to kill one another? That there will only be one sister standing before me in the end and that Xavier or Tristian, the best men in the world, will be sorrowful for years till they get over their lost love one?! Did you think about that you worthless piece of crap?!”

That was when I
