Chapter One :Chapter 1

"I can see the baby's head already!" The midwife says this while soaking with sweat. When the child appeared, her hand was poised to catch it.

Bell took a deep breath and gave one more strong push. Her body is extremely weak due to the labour. But, her infant already occupies all of her energy.

Bell will die in the first few days of her pregnancy if she is a regular human being. Fortunately, she is a witch. She found a solution to survive and assure her child's survival in her womb.

After a few minutes, the sharp wail of a baby filled the room.

"Bell, your baby daughter is healthy. Congratulations, "When she placed the baby in Bella's arms, the midwife stated.

"Thank you for ensuring my baby's safety," Bell said softly to the midwife before turning to see her daughter.

"My little angel is so lovely..." Bell says as she massages her baby's soft skin. When Bell felt the pain in her finger and the gradual sucking in her blood, her smile faded. Bell straightened up and glanced at her daughter, despite the fact that her strength had not yet returned.

"Oh dear baby..." Bell exclaimed, noticing her daughter's innocent expression. Then she made a choice. Bella hurriedly dressed and prepped her baby.

"Where are you going?" the midwife wondered as Bell approached with her infant.

"My baby... She won't live if I don't take her to her father," Bell said, choking back tears.

"Her father's world, though, is more hazardous. How do you know she'll be safe there? "The midwife inquired. She didn't try to hide her displeasure.

"My little princess will be safe there because she is like them," Bell said, displaying her baby's face.

The midwife couldn't talk right away because it was her first time seeing the infant's eyes. The baby's eyes glitter, but it's the scarlet colour that stands out.

"Don't tell me your baby's father is a vampire, Bell." The midwife was taken aback. She had not anticipated this. Bell informed her that the father's word is hazardous, not the father himself.

Bell didn't say anything and didn't hold back. In the dead of night, she left her house and followed the road to the cursed area.

Loud cries from the baby

"Just wait a little longer, darling. We'll be there soon, your father's property "Bell begged her child. They are still in the midst of the forest, which is one of the most dangerous locations on the planet, especially for humans. Therefore, in order to keep her daughter quiet, Bell gave her the finger and let it suck her blood.

"I'm sorry, sweetie... Mum almost ran out of blood," Bell said quietly as she continued to walk. She didn't care about the pain of childbirth; all she wanted was to save her child.

Then Bell securely crossed the woodland, and she saw the castle she was looking for right away.

"See, baby... this is your father's country, and he's by your side. You will be safe till the age when you can defend yourself "As she continues her stroll, Bell remarks.

"I almost forgot what your name was... Oh, because your eyes are so beautiful, I'll call you Scarlett..." Bell continued, and using her magic, she wrote 'Scarlett' on the linen that was wrapped around her baby. She also removed her jewellery and placed it on her daughter's.

"Well... what have we here? A person? Ha Ha Ha, all I want to do is play with my race, but I doubt I'll find a better toy!"

Bell was terrified, not for herself, but for her daughter, so she embraced Scarlett firmly.

"Don't even consider it! We are Nicolas' subjects, so I would walk away!" Bell declared emphatically. She's adept at masking her emotions, so the thing in front of her has no idea how terrified she is.

"Monsieur Nicolas? Oh, my goodness! And when was the last time you saw him? I'm sure it's been a long time since you haven't heard anything about what happened to him "The vampire spoke up.

"Why? What exactly do you mean? What became of him?" Bell inquired, one by one. Nicolas hadn't visited her in three months, and Bell had no idea what had happened to him in that time.

"Oh, you miserable thing... You've come a long way, yet you'll be disappointed. Nicolas is no longer alive! He was assassinated three months ago!" The vampire declared before walking away.

Bell's world falls apart the moment she hears the vampire's statements. She takes a step back, but her gaze is fixed on her kid.

"Being Lord Nicolas' subject is so meaningless," the vampire continued.

Bell caught her breath as the vampire vanished and reappeared in front of her, his hand on her neck.

"Well, looks like you're dying, therefore you'd be better off dying in my hand," the vampire says as his fang emerges.

"Yeah, I'm going to die! but not in your possession!" Bell declared, her eyes becoming white, as thunder and lightning rumbled across the sky.

The vampire's hand encircled Bell's neck and yanked her away with unknown force. Then his feet rose to the earth while he struggled to breathe.

"What happened to Nicolas? And who now owns this place?" Bell inquired emphatically.

"You must be a witch! How did you come into our country without being discovered! "The vampire inquired, but the force on his neck grew stronger.

"Answer my question or you shall perish!" Bell was ecstatic.

"I'm not sure; it's a mystery how the most powerful vampire perished. And his brother Marco and his family, in response to your second enquiry. Because Nicolas has no relatives, they are the legal heirs!" Even though he was having difficulty breathing, the vampire attempted to finish his story.

"What about you? Do you have any kinship with them?" Bell inquired, carefully lowering the vampire.

"Yeah, Nicolas created me as a vampire, so he is my master," the vampire replied, sighing with relief as the energy clutching his neck was released.

"Can you tell me your name?" Bell inquired solemnly. She doesn't have time to spare; unleashing her power sooner would have nearly killed her.

"My name is Mark," the vampire says hurriedly.

Bell cast a spell as soon as the vampire shouted his name. She slashed Mark's hand and uttered a Latin phrase. Bell draws a circle on Scarlett's forehead with Mark's blood.

"What are you up to?! Are you wishing me ill? Please halt!" Mark begged.

Bell grinned and handed Scarlett to Mark after performing the magic.

"She is Scarlett, your lord Nicolas' only daughter," Bell says as she strokes Scarlett's exquisite face.
