Thorns
History of The Claritin
Expensive items breaking, glass shattering and blood everywhere...
The dark room that's filled with broken items, and the loud scream that's replenished with painery and sorrow.
I looked at the rose that's painted with bloody red shining from the moon below, as a petal fall it turned to ashes gray.
My deep breathing echoing the room like the flowing wind whispering at my ear, my fingers that's full with cuts and blood....
I yelled and shatter every glasses once more, till I fell asleep with the bed of roses and shattered glass.
As I dreamt of myself surrounded by succumbing water with petals of roses, there I couldn't breath.
Crimson
"No one will save me from this binding curse"
I woke up from that dream.. the dream
Crimson
that I'm stuck with
"Good morning prince, your breakfast is ready" said the butler outside of my room
I got up of bed to change my clothes, and walked out of the room.
I am the inheritor of the Claritin family
Crimson
I "Prince Crimson IV Claritin Bordeaux" a noble vampire the only son and the only survivor of the Claritin family.
The Claritin has many histories unfold even before I was born and has once engulfed with many wars that are supposedly not to get involved with, scream and terror of blood on the grounds, fight for the throne as it covered with blood and power.
All of this has happened, this mansion was once burned to reddish fire and my very father was burned with it, while I was left alone leaving with nothing.
But to think I'll come back in this mansion even tho it's left with nothing, it might sounded impossible but I rebuild this mansion back to where it's standing and hired maids and bulters to clean and redecorate the interior then the exterior.
Now that I'm back, humans and even vampires intend to attack me and destroy the mansion.
Because they are feared, that I would rule or might destroy the whole world.
Because I was known as "The Cursed Crimson Vampire".
Before my parents died they despise me ever since I was born, everything I do and I everything I would do they never cared, because of the curse that's within me.y he is with it's crimson eyes like mine.
When I was just 5 years old I have a pet white rabbit, so fluffy he is with it's crimson eyes like mine.
Sometimes I wonder what will it look like when it's covered in blood, I tore that rabbit apart as the maid saw me with fear in her eyes.
After seeing the blood I had no interest of drinking it nor eating the rabbit itself not because it was my pet, I just can't.
After years and years went by, I lived my whole life not drinking animal or human blood, not even vampire blood.
You can tell if a vampire has drinked blood or not, if their eyes are fully red like the blood itself.
My eyes are the crimson color, they can't tell wether I've drinked blood or not because the crimson color is the family color of red.
My mother's eyes were once crimson father said, if I would describe her she is the most beautiful person I've ever seen.
Her skin white like the fluffy clouds, her long black hair silky smooth and her lips red like cherry.
She may be beautiful but she's just a gold digger, she once intend to kill father in his sleep.
But in the end she was caught and was killed by thorns that surrounded her, my father who was left betrayed and heartbroken for the very first time in my life he gazed at me.
Crimson
"Crimson, I know I have never been a good father to you... But as the inheritor of the Claritin family you must know not to trust anyone, not even the people you love."
Those are the first words I have heard from my father himself....
As when I was a bit more matured in my age of 17 and father is now old, and have learn things of being careful on trusting someone and never be left filled with regrets.
I've decided to burn down the entire Claritin Mansion with my father inside and everything that has happened.
Crimson
Yes I'm the one who burnt the mansion and the one who rebuilt it, I'm the one who killed father.....
After years passed by, I longed for nothing except power...
But one thing is that I can't escape the reality that I'm bearing, the curse that's so painful that others can't handle.
A nameless and colorless curse, with no cure.
At the garden which is filled with white roses...
"Prince, may I have a word?" Said the butler
"Prince I think it is time for you to drink blood, I have been by your side ever since you were born. I don't want to see you suffer anymore"....
After hearing those words I hesitated but...
His Butler
"Prince it is time for you to drink blood, I have been by your side ever since you were born. I don't want to see you suffer anymore"....
The family butler who is loyal and trustful, the first human who survived in a noble vampire family.
Let's hide his name as "Main" He was my grandfather's butler and my father's butler, and now "my" butler.
He who has no background, he who has witnessed 'their deaths', and who has witnessed my life and their's of suffering, and will soon witness my death.
A man of few words, who's seemingly undying.
I sometimes wonder who is this butler, how come he's still alive and standing beside me right now?
I don't intend to kill him since he has stayed by grandfather's side till the end, the only person who showed affection when I was nothing, when my parents didn't care, a man who I can't read.
Who is difficult to understand and only hides behinds his master's shadow, I wonder why is this butler so loyal, because one thing I know of humans... their mouth filled with "lies".
Before grandfather died he said his last words I thought was his biggest mistake yet
"Crimson... Son, don't make choices that you'll regret"
I scoffed remembering those words, "I will never escape the path of regretfulness" that was my thought.
And before I knew it, I funnily regretted saying it... because I was pulled back from the light I know I couldn't get back...
Crimson
What is all this racket?
I walked down the stairs looking at five servants holding a girl that struggled to free her hands
"Prince, I apologize for this unpleasant scenery we will take her away now" the butler bows his head
Crimson
Who is she?... I question looking at her
"She is Roseate White, a wolf, we found her sneakily hiding behind the trees"
A wolf you say? Our family has never once engulfed with wolves not even in wars, because we knew that even our clan or theirs would never take home the victory.
Crimson
Alright take her away, be careful or you'll get bit
I was about to leave but suddenly a sharp object is on my neck, I gaze to my right and see the girl which her hand holding with her sharp nails that's scratching my neck.
"Prince Crimson!" One of the servants yelled
Roseate
Don't move or do you want his neck cut off?
Her words that are endearing, her eyes that are piercing through their enemy....
Crimson
Are making me lose control..
I mumbled as I tightly held her hand, turned around and gripped her jaw.
Crimson
You know what's funny?
Crimson
To think that you'll cut my neck off just by your nails
I smugged, as my nails starts to sharpen and my eyes starts to redden.
Her neck that's bleeding and with her short breathing.... are so erotic that it could drive me crazy.
Crimson
Sure I'll let go, it is very impolite to hold up a lady's jaw like this
I let her go like I said, she started coughing out of breath.
"We will take her away" butler bends down and quickly send her away from my sight.
I looked at my hand that's still stained with her blood, unknowingly my eyes redden once more, and I was about to lick the drop of blood, but then the butler came in
"Prince" he called me and I quickly back off
"Yes" by what he meant of calling me was to stop me from drinking the blood, I wonder why, he gave me a tissue and I quickly wiped it off spotlessly...
as a thought came to me "What was I doing?"
It was midnight, all the servants went home except for the butler, it was a silent night, I was in my dark room, I am again breaking all the items I see, glass, mirrors, expensive jars, it was all for me to take out the pain that I'm enduring with.
The curse that I can't explain, can't I just die except waiting here for somebody to kill me?
I looked at the broken glass with my face menacing and my breath short, I took the broken glass and start to point it at my neck, but something stopped me
"Do I really have to die like this?"
Those words pierced at me
Crimson
gasp... huff.huff..haa..
I thought If I die like this.. I'll be mocked by the people saying that I suicide just because
"I couldn't take it anymore"
it made me laugh to the point I laid my hand to the ground and tightly hold the broken glass as my hand starts to bleed
Crimson
I made it this far.. I can take a few more years
I mumbled and got up looking at my hand bleeding, reminded me of the wolf's blood earlier
"Her words that are endearing, her eyes that are piercing through their enemy.... 'are making me lose control'.."
it made me overwhelmed.. to the point I licked my blood passionately.. in every corner leaving taint less, with my erotic look....
Roseate White
It was dawn, I was in my bed, words were echoing in my head over and over. The dead haunting me in my sleep, I wake unsurprised, everything is the same nothing has changed
"Prince, breakfast is served" said the butler knocking my door
I open my eyes to find myself in a unfamiliar place, my hands locked by the chains, under the light that's surrounded by darkness
The voice coming from the butler in black standing at the door.
I remember he brought me here and now I'm in the hands of him
he walks forwards and sits down on a chair with his face calm and competent
then starts to question me of why am I here...
I looked down saying nothing while the whole room is silent and his eyes staring at me waiting for an answer.
It seems he is patient enough to wait for me to answer, I genuinely replied
"How did you ended up here?"
Roseate
I got separated by my clan after being chased by hundreds of hunters
He raises his brow thinking that I must be lying..
either he thinks I'm lying or telling the truth it's his choice
His eyes were impulsive.. I don't know if he's either human or something else
he shook his head down then asks "Who are you and which clan are you from?".
I promised my family not to tell my name
Roseate
Roseate White, Rosè Clan
The name of my wolf is good enough
When I entered their territory I felt a horrible feeling, so I answered. Rosè Clan was a false clan name.
I see him looking at the files then stares at me "There is no such thing as Rosè Clan"
I forcedly freed myself from the chains then quickly lounge at him as I choked him to death
I hurriedly went and looked for an exit..
there I ended up in the hallway near the exit but was stopped by four servants who are seemingly well skilled
I tried to run as I was stopped by the butler who I just killed
I was shocked as I see him blocking the doorway
I thought to myself "didn't I just choked him?"
His face was calm and competent like earlier..
but with a small smirk on his face "Your not going anywhere"
I was frightened by the look on his face, who is he? No what is he? He's supposed to be dead..
I killed him, is this an illusion?
Those questions were swirling in my head, but then
it was so sudden I hear such a beautiful deep voice coming from the stairs
Crimson
What is all this ruckus?
I turned to see who's voice is this, just there I find a beautiful man looking down on us with his crimson like eyes
his skin fairly like, and his fangs coming out of his lips red cherry
"I apologise for the unsightly scene, we will take her away" said the butler looking at the servants signalling them to quickly tie me up
the man turns his back on us
and then there I took him hostage, with my long claws
"Prince Crimson!" Yelled the servant, so he is a prince
Roseate
Don't move or do you want his head cut off?
I threaten them, they were hesitant except for the butler he was calm like always
the man I hold hostage giggled, why?
Crimson
Isn't it funny? To think you'll cut my head by using your sharply claws?
He smug as he choked me to the air, I struggled to free myself but he was strong with his long nails making my neck bleed....
Here I am again, down in the cellar locked up, I couldn't believe of how strong the prince was...
With his beautiful figure I just thought he would be fragile and easily get bruised, but I was mistaken.
It has been more than a day that I stayed in this dark place, instead of chains they locked me up in a different room.
I am worried that the members of my clan will be looking for me in the middle of nowhere...
Suddenly I noticed how my body is burning it must be that I have a fever because of the environment I am in now, but then funnily enough I feel horny...
it has been half an hour since my I'm in heat, just a moment later I transformed myself into white, my wolf.
I banged the cell and destroyed it, I walked up and hear the piano play.. I followed the sound and at the musical room, he the prince from last night was playing with the piano. A song titled "Lose you"
