Prologue

“When you love someone you are willing to do anything for them no matter what. You are willing to go to extreme measures to protect them, and their families. They have tried to destroy our happiness because in their eyes it was forbidden for us to ever be together, but are the head vampires willing to protect us, or do we have to face consequences for wanting to be together? You can’t escape destiny, and you can’t keep them apart no matter how hard you try.”

Chapter One: The Beginning

What most people do not know is that Springhill has a secret that has been around for thousands of years. The secret is that vampires have lived among humans for years, and not all humans know that they live here. Sometimes there will be incidents where someone is completely drained of blood, and ripped apart without any explanations. Many people just believe that it is a wild animal causing these problems because that is what the police tell the public, but it is not. It is the new vampires that have not had experience with their new self, and do not know how to control themselves yet. Of course though, the new vampires do get punished for their actions, and they learn pretty quickly not to make the same mistake again. The police know that it is vampires causing these incidents because the majority of the police are vampires themselves.

The vampires in this town blend in with everyone around them so no one knows about them, and no one knows who is even a vampire outside of town. Someone close to you could be best friends with one and you wouldn’t even know it because they have learned to adapt to the people around them.  Many of them do not expose what they are to the ones around them because people would try to kill them, and expose them to the world. It has happened before and it ended badly. One of the things that make the vampires blend in with the humans is that all the female vampires can have children just like the female humans can.

There was a horrible battle between humans and vampires. Many humans died from their wounds, and many vampires were killed instantly. In the end the humans agreed to live in peace with the vampires after they agreed that they will not harm the humans. The humans also agreed because most of the vampires in Springhill have lived here their entire lives, and never bothered the humans. It is the vampires that do not belong in Springhill who have caused the battle and caused the vampires that lived in town to go against their own kind to protect the humans.

At the time of the battle many of the vampires that did not belong hid away, and hid the young children away from the humans and the other vampires so that they would not be killed. Many of them even changed their last names so that people didn’t connect them with their relatives. Many of the older vampires survived from the attacks, and retreated to where they had hid their children. Everyone in Springhill is hoping that they are not trying to go to battle again. They do not want people to be killed again.
Our mother was a human and she came from a line of old vampire hunters. She became a vampire after she had Jeremy and me. She has lived in Springhill her entire life. Her first name is Elizabeth, and her maiden name was Blackheart, which are the original vampire hunters that settled in Springhill many years ago to raise their families. Our mother took our father’s last name when they got married. Many vampires do not mind the Blackheart’s anymore because they haven’t done anything wrong, and because one of them is married to a vampire.

Our fathers name is Lazarus MacDonald, and he is a very powerful vampire.  He was born in Springhill. He met our mother when they were both fifteen. He would often visit her every day without being noticed because he was not accepted by Elizabeth’s father.  Our grandfather was not sure he could trust Lazarus, and he wasn’t sure if he wanted to hurt her, but it turns out he was her soul mate and that is not what Lazarus wanted. He just wanted to be with her, and protect her because he loved her. Our grandfather learned to get along with Lazarus not only because he was his daughter’s soul mate but because he learned to trust Lazarus.
At first many vampires would mate with humans to keep their identity a secret, and no one would know about vampires existing because their children look like humans. They would have to go through the head vampires to make sure that the humans would not say anything that will put them in danger. They have been mating with humans for a long time now. It also helps to protect their families from other predators like vampire hunters because they think they killed all the vampires.

Vampires have soul mates, which is why some have mated with humans because their soul mates were human. Soul mates are people who were meant to be together forever and can`t be separated. The two people who are soul mates know they are and no one can change it. You can’t separate soul mates because something bad will happen if you do. I once watched two soul mates being taken away from each other, and it ended up with people getting hurt, and lives being destroyed. That is why when we find our soul mates we stay together forever. Our friends, family, and the head vampires have to except it because you can’t control who becomes your soul mate. That is why when our parent’s first fell in love with each other, there was nothing that our grandfather could do about it because they were both soul mates.

Jeremy and I are fraternal twins, and we are both 17 years old. It is very uncommon for vampires to have twins. The head vampires keep a close eye on us because we are the first twin vampires in a thousand years, and to them twin vampires are like a prized possession. People often say I look like my mother when she was younger, but I have my father’s eyes, and Jeremy looks like our father when he was younger, but he has our mother’s eyes. We attend Springhill High School. Springhill currently has a population of approximately 2,500 people. Many people that live in Springhill end up going to Springhill High School because there isn’t any more high school’s in our community. If you want to go to another high school you have to go outside of our town, which is why many people stay here because it is easier, and they already know the people.

My name is Katelyn Elizabeth MacDonald, and I have long brown hair, blue eyes, tall, and pale skin. I am really smart, and a great athlete. I am currently the co-captain of the cheerleading team at our school. I am also on the girls’ basketball, and volleyball teams and I am the captain of both. I am a full vampire and I often have difficulties with controlling my thirst for blood, which it can be a problem for my family if something goes wrong. My brother’s name is Jeremy Edward MacDonald. He has brown hair, brown eyes, tall and has pale skin as well, but he is only half vampire. He is not affected by the same things full vampires are affected by because he is only half vampire. It is much easier for him to resist blood because of it. He is also the captain of the boys’ basketball team at Springhill High School.

People tend to fall all over us whenever we go anywhere outside of Springhill because we are very beautiful. It is difficult at times to deal with. Jeremy tends to have the worst of it because almost all the girls in school follow him around like a lost puppy.  We also have powers that help us when we need to use them. Jeremy and I can communicate with each other through our minds. I can sense when someone is upset, make people tell the truth, create force fields that protect people, I can find anyone, and know exactly where they are at all times, I can move objects with my mind, and I can also trick people when battling them.  Jeremy can make fire whenever he wants; he can run very fast, faster than anyone I have ever known. He can also break anything with his mind. When this happens it is difficult for him to stop, so we have to help him stop or else he might destroy a whole building.

Jeremy has been working with our friend Sarah MacPherson to control his powers, and they have made progress. Jeremy only uses his powers when he needs to, but other than that he hates using them. They practice in the woods so that no one will get caught in the cross fire if something goes wrong. She enjoys helping him, and she wants nothing in return for helping him.
“Jeremy I need you to focus on your powers.” Sarah said to Jeremy. She really wanted him to get this right. “Sarah I am trying. It doesn’t seem to be working.” He replied back in an aggravated tone. It was clear that Jeremy wanted to work on his powers, but he hated that it was a long process.

Jeremy looked at Sarah with a worried look on his face. “Sarah I don’t want you to get hurt if something goes wrong with my powers.” Sarah was doing everything she could to help him. “Jeremy, you will be fine. If something bad happens I can protect myself. You don’t need to worry about hurting me. I know you would never hurt anyone unless you had to.” She was well aware that Jeremy was worried about hurting her. She didn’t want him to feel that way.

So this is a book that I have been working on for a while now. I decided I would submit the first chapter to get a feel about what people think about it. I would really love some feedback.

I may be updating this as well. Kind of a rough draft and a work in progress.
