Vampire Chronicles 41 Zora's Death

His wife funeral. Later that evening tension began to rise in the kingdom who will pick up the pieces of the broken king. Everything was much of a blur to King Philip he didn't want to go back to his old ways being ruthless and vile, she bared his child a child that wasn't going to be in this world but the afterlife he believed. He threw gla.s.s of blood at the wall it shattered as Jasper walked into the door he bowed towards his father.

"What is it that you want Jasper? I'm not in the mood for such talk with you"

"Father I know your upset but think about it what if mother faked her death she could still be out there? I-"

A forceful slap came across Jaspers face as he smiled in amus.e.m.e.nt. Jasper been played and move around like a p.a.w.n he didn't really care about his life but rather about his dear love Nicole. Without her he was nothing, she knew that from the start.

"How dare u talk about your mother like that, she died in front of ours eyes. All I can do know is bury my sweet wife ashes"

"There was no need to hit me father I see why they called you the death of Snow kingdom. No one dared entered you land unless it was something important"

"If I hit you again you'll show your true side we don't need that now don't we father...."

King philip looked over towards Edward watching them as he sat in a chair reading his magic spell book holding a gla.s.s of wine.

"Edward what are u doing here you need to leave now!?"

"I choose not to leave, I find this rather amusing. My dear baby brother taking on the very angered King. How exciting must I say. Father you shouldn't be so hard on him, he may be right I sensed magic in body when she vanish this is what u call an illusion father look it up sometime"

King Philip grunts as he stormed out the room leaving Jasper and Edward alone. Jasper sat next to his brother Edward as hummed in curiosity.

"Edward may I ask you something? "

"Fire away baby brother"

"Was father always abusive towards mother. Why did she stay with him if he was harming her and our unborn sibling."

"Well it all started with a potion it was deadly but I didn't think father would take the risk like that. When I was little he would always be my little subject to taste my drinks he loved and heated them. That particular one I gave to him I shouldn't have given to him...I blame myself for not making a cure. Do you see why he acts the way he do when his eyes are red he is angry but when there blue he is a calm as ever as if nothing ever happened. He would dare never hit his lover unless the ruthless side of him came out, that's why I always go out and buy things from the black market one buy things foe the villagers."

"I didn't think he would go that far but he is our father after all, I missed a lot of things. At least you got to experience such things as a royal . My life as a human was decent but hard, humans make every day there last once the die they wither away...just like my adoring father did that did day..."

"Hmmm the family that was attacked by rouged wolves, surprisingly you survived but A pure blooded vampire changed you back to your true form. Sadly I wished that could have been thug could have saved you from such terrible things. The lilt kingdom have there ups and downs. You out of all people served those fools the only nice person in there was the queens but even queens can turn evil...how is that human of yours doing?"

"She is sick but I am sure she will be fine. Maids are a.s.sisting her right now my life is filled with joy that I found her again"

"Are you sure about that brother....I mean what if she dies in Charles hands. A lot of rumors are starting to spread all over the place. Rage have consumed him he is just a fire cracker ready to blow up...I'm warning you know leave while you can..."

"Why are you being so nice to me Edward? "

"Hmmmm I haven't been very nice to you or your lover, humans aren't really my cup of tea but I have to get along with my people an of course family. I am scared for our kingdom now where will we stand without our queen..."

Edward looked down slightly as Jasper did the same until one of the maids ran into the room that they were in asking for Jasper a.s.sistance with Nicole. Jasper immediately followed the maid to their room, he was shocked to see her body go pale. He ran up to her as she smiled, he tried his best to keep a straight face but it was hard to see the love of his life feel so ill.

"What ever is the matter my darling Nicole"

"Might be food poisoning, I'm not sure myself. Don't worry Jasper I'll get better in no time!?"

Nicole smiled at him as she pat his head slightly, Jasper couldn't help but knell down at her bedside. He moved her hand from his head placing it on his face as he smile. Edward suddenly came into there room holding a small bottle of a blue liquid. Jasper looked up as he held Nicole's hand tightly.

"Here Jasper its something I made, it should make her feel well again. Is that okay with her?"

Jasper looked at Nicole as she nodded weakly. Jasper grabbed the the bottle from Edward as he removes the seal placing it on his mouth. Jasper leaned against her face as she closed her eyes feeling his soft warm lips against hers feeling the liquid in her mouth as she began to drink it. Nicole moaned slightly as he deepened the kiss letting some of the liquid come out the side of her mouth. Edward removed himself from their room as the maids did the same giving them a private moment to themselves.

Jasper blushed deeply as Nicole did the same he removed his lips from from hers she noticed his eyes turned into a dark purple. Was it because of l.u.s.t she didn't really understand vampires though she been around them. Jasper suddenly removed himself from her as she looked at ratgee confused.

"Nicole I want you so much but I'm afraid I'll...break you. I can't keep myself off of you. Everytime we kiss it's so magical then it leads to something more-"

Nicole suddenly hugged him as she could do it smile.

" Jasper its okay if you don't wanna do such things with me its okay though, I am only well 17 after all. I am still considered young bait for your people. "

"Oh Nicole you will never have to fear I'm here to protect you darling. If anyone lays a finger on you I would have to kill them for your sake.."

"Why for my sake Jasper, I cared about your safety as well"

"I must remind you I am powerful but there is always someone who is powerful then me. If I ever die I want you to know that I will always love you right on here"

Jasper points to her heart as she tighten his grip around his body. He did the same, he knew that time wouldn't mean forever for her so he wants to make sure that this issue with Charles gets situated soon or it'll be another endless war over her. Jasper was ready for anything when it came to Nicole, he die anyway just so she can have a life to enjoy even if its with Charles. Edward knocked on the door as he walked in placing some desserts and tea on the table in there room.

"What is all of this brother?"

"Just showing you that I can make some good tea and father can make some good desserts. I didn't plan this mother thought it was best to let you both enjoy these things together since you'll both be getting married."

"Thank you so much Edward! You and Mr.Wintered didn't have to make such a thing!?"

"Oh you silly girl we are welcoming you to our family accept it as a welcome gift since we couldn't give you one since that um ordeal but anyways enjoy it while you can. We have pot roast for dinner so I'll need some help."

"I'll help you Edward, Nicole why don't you enjoy snacks and drinks my brother left out for you. Your still rather sick so rest. I'll be back before no time."

Jasper placed a tender kiss on here lips as he sets her down on the chair. Nicole looked at him as he walked away blowing him kiss as he blushed. Nicole enjoyed herself with the little snacks and tea until she heard a thump. She turned around startled seeing Charles with members of the Court themselves.

"Nicole you thought I wasn't going to find you...I swear your just so adorable to me. I came to get you from this cold place. You traveled far but I came for you darling."

Nicole stood up immediately "I'm not going anywhere with you!! The way you treated me you are a sh.e.l.l of a man!? Jasper actually loves me ; he really do an its real...."

" So you tell me this because you think I care....I love you but you slept with Percy so he claimed your body."

"It was by force you idiot!? You think I wanted to do such a thing like that Percy ; Jasper loved me enough that he was willing to take it slow with me actually love me like a human being ! He takes care of me you never did...all you ever done was hurt me..."

Charles laughed as she looked down with tears of sorrow as she wept and plead for him to leave. Charles extended his arms to her as she screamed out Jaspers name. Jasper was there instantly as he pulled Nicole to his side holding a sword in his hand.

"Charles you need to leave now...she doesn't want to be with you anymore she wants to be with me. I'll kill you right here...I'm surprised you brought the court members here...Shall I kill them too once I'm finished with you..."

Charles looked down at Nicole's left hand seeing a ring. His eyes widened as he screamed at him in fury.

"You are married too him...dear oh dear I was suppose to be your lover your everything "

"Well Charles that changed she is with me now and we forever more happy. We are getting married soon so you don't have to worry I'll be the one taking care of her for now on"

"Then I have to kill you both...war is already raging in your kingdom as we speak give it up...Your surround. Now I will let the people of the court take good care of you...bye bye now!?"

Charles disappeared as the court hummed to themselves dozens of blades surrounded them. Jasper held Nicole close giving her kiss with love and pa.s.sion. She smiled as well realizing this was there faith meaning that they'll die happily in each others arms.

"Nicole I'll see you on the other side my love.."

"I can't wait..."

Jasper tightens his grips as the blades went through there body as they screamed in the pain. Nicole dies instantly as Jasper was driven to unconsciousness he looker at Nicole small form he held lifeless in his body. Jasper closed his eyes knowing that he will meet her soon.

Nicole's memory started to rewind from her present to her future. Everything she did and wanted to do as all because of Jasper. Nicole realized that she was getting a Third chance of life. Her story wasn't over but only beginning. Nicole suddenly Gasped as began to Shake. Jasper immediately got up calling the nurse. Nicole looked at her hands even touching her head. She realized she back in the hospital when Charles Attacked her killing her instantly. Nicole looked at Jasper as he smiled at her, she couldn't help but cry.

"Oh Jasper....I had such a horrible dream!? I-we.."

"Nicole I know..."

"You know that we were together we was going to get married...!? Oh Jasper...I thought I wasn't going to see you again!?"

Jasper kissed her cheek as she blush only to them say "you must keep your voice down Darling no one else even remembers what happened expect to us. I know your excited but you been in a coma for a whole year. I've been sleeping for a whole year lets keep it simple like that. I guess G.o.d gave u a third chance in life. I am forever blessed that he gave me such a beautiful women to decor myself with "

Nicole moaned out his name as she blushed. Charles came in with flowers in his head as Jasper bowed immediately.

"Nicole your awake thank goodness, I was going to sit here for a bit and talk to you privately...it seems that Jasper ruined that I am deeply sor-"

Charles looked down at Nicoles left hand seeing a ring that Jasper gave her on her ring finger. Charles looked rather confused as Jasper wrote his report down for the evening. Charles shook his head as he placed the flowers next to her she smiled as Jasper did the same.

"Jasper may I ask how something "

"Yes prince Charles? Do you want some tea?"

"No I want to know why she is wearing a ring? Did you give it her I would like to know..."

"Sir I did I don't regret giving a beautiful girl such gift. Please I will take responsibility."

Jasper bowed immediately as he felt Charles slapped him. Jasper looked down as Nicole removed herself immediately as she held her head.

"Its not fair how you treat him he's your friend not a co-worker.I...I love him Charles!?"

"Excuse me what kind of chemistry do you have with eachother?"

"Lots and lots, we knew me when I was small we did so many things together...until King Chancellor punished him from such a thing. He treats me better than u ever did...I want to be with him Charles..."

Jasper walked up to Nicole as he held her hand tightly. Charles looked shocked but later smiled.

"Then I am happy for him...you just need to live your life Jasper...I'm sorry Nicole for hurting you I guess I need to work on something's, I wished I could have been the better person in your life out life. I regret for ever laying a finger on you. I hope you can forgive me in that sweet heart of yours Nicole. Take care of her okay Jasper.."

Charles diasppered as he lays Nicole back on the hospital bed. Jasper kissed her deeply as she smiled.

Nicole nodded as Jasper kissed her again. She was glad she made the right decision to pick Jasper with no regrets.
