A Vampire's rule

the first fitting session was a slow tiem for him. she took her tiem to dress up and they sewed it on her so it owuld be a perfect fit and se was flushed red. hsi eyes neve rleft her and that made her feel naked even with the dress on her. the lace and frills were just a first draft and it was up to her to make the final desicion. the veil was the hardest becausehe insisted on real diamons and pearl to adorn it and the train and they were out abroad to purchase or mine them. the pearls would be fresh from the sea and only the very best would suit him for his bride.

his orders were celar and his minions picked the world apart to fetch the required materials.

Even with them doing their tasks, Anthony was happy but still gazing upon his new bride seeing how beautiful she was but grew excited knowing she'll be even better during their wedding day. He sees the maids sewing more of the fresh new fabric to the dress while Elizabeth stays still during this time. She was still blushing heavily from this but didn't move to ruin the work.

when the pins were in place she was told to turn and she did not really used to the dress yet and the makers were confident she would be okay. she wanted less frolls and more of her form showing and they made sure to adjust it. she looked even more stunning after they were done and she felt more balanced. but his eyes never left her.

"Is their something wrong my love? You won't stop staring at me." He blinks hearing her lovely voice but Anthony smiled with a chuckle.

"How can I not? Seeing the best woman in my life going to be my queen. I'm just excited but happy too. I figure you would be happy right?" he winks seeing her blushing even more as the maids kept working on her dress. She looks away from him showing a smile upon her lips but he was happy to know that.

dur9ing these wedding plans he was careful not to seduce her or get into any close calls with toughing her too familiarly. he didnt want to miss any of the appointments she had for her dressmaker her planner and the delivery drivers who required a signiture. it was easy for him to hold back at first and she knew he was doing his best and would sneak some small romances with him to show some affection. never going to ofar so they would not be distracted too badly.

these involved kissing small dance shows she performed for him bare of course and cuddles and snuggles. he was content with this since it helped him feel her love even more and she got more out of it that he did.

He will just have to behave like a good boy so he wouldn't lose it and wish to have her for himself. Anthony already proved that she belongs to him and she loved it. He carefully smiled seeing her happier too that he was relaxing while the maids were still working on the dress.

this is the third fitting." he complained not really frustrated just trying to understand how she could change her mind so much.

"i know love i just want it to be perfect and everytime you add something to the decoratoins i have to do somethign to change my gown to suit the ambiance."

"so its my fault?"

"arent all your troubles your own fault?" she asks and he nodded remembering such wisdom from his youth.

"your right. it is. i guess ill have to be more careful. but you pick the flowers. and the floral decorations that flank the altar." he said and she goggles.

"very well love now if you could stop looking at me for 5 mintues i might be able to finish this faster." he understood and smiles looking away an she let go of the breath she was holding and her chest seemed to relax and fill out her dress more than before. she took a deep breath and held it while her waist and chest were remeasured and the dress was pinned.

she was stunning inher dress and she was glad he got her meaning.

She saw that everything was sewed and perfect with the fabric and jewels added to the dress. Even the ones she's going to be wearing will be hand made for her. Nothing is too much for his bride while he was waiting for them to finish. In a while, she was finally done while Anthony sees her dressed in normal clothing while the maids were taking the dress away to finish it up from the outside. She was happy with it that Anthony smiled seeing her.

"This will be great right love? The wedding will be just wonderful." she said holding his hand that Anthony agrees.

"True but you still have to pick the flowers for it. Whatever you think will fit to it." he said but Eliza nods happy for that. She did check the choices of the flower seeing so many but she already had the ones she liked narrowed down.

he didnt say anything thinking of somehting that was a better flower than any they could grow or buy and he keeps that thought a secret. he loved her dress and how it held her frame. it suited ehr marvelously and she was lookin through the book.

She didn't respond much to the pics but figures they wouldn't work with the dress now. Maybe Eliza can find better flowers somewhere else. That was fine, if she couldn't find anything, she'll work with what she has. Even though her beloved had the perfect flowers for her and the wedding.

he watches the dressmakers and decided to leave so they can finish without his interfereance. hewent back to the palace and the guards he summoned stayed to protect her and the dressmakers while he was gone. they were her own forces trained by her and for her. they had a few unter skills thanks to their efforts to be like here and each one had a different secialty. nothing happned but they couldnt be too careful.

Anthony would always make sure the guards were doing their duty, protecting the queen from anything that wishes to hear him and her. Eliza is everything to him which he explained to the guards. He wanted to make sure they under stood either way.

She was crtainly on track for the dress and she noticed he wasnt nearby anymore just as the final pins were put in place. that seemed to make her feel a bit lonely and maybe a bit sad but she was stuck until the dress was removed for sewing and her clothes were changed.

her guards respected her privacy and stayed outside the building making sure no one who wasnt supposed to be there went inside. there were no altercations and she started to wonder where anthony went. she seemed preoccupied with that question and she left to find him following his scent which was dangerous for her to breathe for too long.

her guards assure her he was fine and only taking care of his own business ad king an she didnt need to worry about him but she was still determined to follow him and find him. she spotted him enterig a business tower and she stopped. his scent was everywhere inside that place and she knew he had been here many times but never shown it to her.

it looked like a vampires only building 30 stories high and built like an office everything she heard inside was normal for an office space and she gulped a bit hearing him talking like the boss. this must have ben his public area humans would never notice they were vampires and most definitly all the staff were turned. her guards explain this was a building where vampires rent space to use for their business deals and he owned the building. he must have gone in to inspect and collect rent. it was such a different aesthetic to his palace home but the vampires here all contribute to his wealth he didnt build or order the building built he bought it so the guards say and they urge her to keep up with her wedding plans.

She didn't say much seeing this but their was a lot more of Anthony she didn't know. But it was really curious to the hunter indeed. Being quiet, the guards help escort her back without Anthony getting worried of where his bride was. He knew she was safe where she was and didn't have to worry of hurting anything that tried to. She was back but checking with the dress to see it was coming along nicely.

just as she thought he forgot her and went home he returned. with a certain grace and dignity she hugged him tight and buried her face in his chest breathing in his scent. "dont leave without telling me master. i want to be near you always.' she said quietly unheard by the dressmakers.

"oh? well you were cuaght up and i wasnt useful so i went to check on some interests i have here.".

she didnt let go and holds him tighter his scent was thick in her nose and temping her. "master please let me know next time."

" as you wish. " he said and she didnt let go

Anthony saw she was seriously not letting her go but it was cute. Watching his soon to be wife being clingy but it was precious. He raised one hand to pet the top of her head but showing a smile either way. He was happy to see she never wished to leave his side. Never ever. And she was proving that to him.

they stay like that until she hears someone approachign and she turns to see one of the dress makers.

"it seems wer are dont withthe preliminary gown and the under garments. the veil and train are still being wovena nd the gems are being set in to your specifications. i must say this is the hardest job and most expenive one weve ever done we are truly thankful for your business." and she blushed hugging him tighter and she smiles.

"see dear this was a good place look how nice they are to you. your demands werent unreasonable were they?" she said and he nods.

" i guess not im glad things are going well." and he hugged her clsoe as well they share a kiss and she goes to watch the train be prepared

She and him were happy being this close for this moment but they keep walking already seeing the train being finished or prepared now. For that moment, Elizabeth didn't leave his side but hopes to see this go all well for them. For the new soon to be wedded couple.

after checking on th progress of the train and veil they both leave to return to the castle. it had been a long day and they had been restraining their urges to be together and intimate the entire time. they return to the palace and he picks her up in his arms makingher gasp and blush heavily. he walked for them both through the gates and courtyard and e was silent.

"My lord, is something wrong?" Elizabeth asked still holding onto Anthony with her arms still wrapped around his shoulders that she was looking more happier now. She begins blushing heavily seeing him just hold her close with a smile on his face. It's been a busy day but he was happy to be home with her.

"You could say that but it's fine...I'm just happy to see that we are home." he chuckled carrying her still. "Even with the possible work all day still tends to be something else." he said sweetly. He walks to the main doors that heads inside his kingdom.

"I'm glad to see we are home too. Nice to be here after some time." she said still showing a smile upon her face. He keeps walking through the main hall with her in arms that some of the butlers and maids bows to their kind and soon to be queen to welcome them home. Two maids open the main doors showing the main throne room.

One butler bows to show some letter that Anthony looks to it then he tells him to set it in his work chambers. For now, he wanted to rest up with her for the rest of the day. He turns to head up to the main stairs with her in his arms still.

"what sdos it say love?" she asks about the leter and he looked at it.

" i wasnt going to read it till you were in bed. do you want to know?" he asks smiling and she blushes.

"yes i do" she said shyly.

"then read it for me and ill keep walking you you will know what it says." he said and she flushed even more feeling his lips on her forehead. he handed her the letter and let her read it.

She takes the letter but opens the seal that held the letter closed. Elizabeth opens the folded letter and begins to read:

Dear prince Anthony,

The high rule heard of your wedding and we are pleased to see that you finally found the bride of your dreams. Most of the overlords will be visiting you to that day. However, we still need to speak of the new laws for the realms. We are hoping you are up to speaking with us and with your soon to be bride too. Due to her being a queen, she'll have to go through the royal..branding. Please be sure to respond as soon as possible. We will need to know the night you wish to do this.

The high over lords.

"......."

"Branding? What did that mean love? "she asked never hearing this before.

he growled." they mean to make you into their slave before letting me have you. and after i warned them all tha tyou were mine and no one was to touch you." he said and this branding ot him must be something that would leave a scar on a vampire to make him so angry.

"B..branding? But I don't want to be taken away from you, my love. I don't want another someone touching me. I don't belong to them." she whispered now nervous but she wasn't sure why the leaders would ask such a thing. She thought they would brand her with something of a mark or something. Not that.

Anthony sees her nervous that he carefully held her close. "NO worries my love, I won't let them take you away from me. No one shall touch my bride. I promise." he whispered to kiss her forehead. She only cuddles up against his neck that it leaves her feeling more close towards her after a while still looking nervous. She carefully sees him look at the letter to burn it so she wouldn't be afraid anymore.

The butler took that as a big no since the older vampires wanted to meet the bride of their soon to be king. They got the chance to speak to the queen before...wanting to keep her or break her. She was nervous at the thought that he walks off with Elizabeth into their chambers. She was set down and sees Anthony touch her cheek while she relaxes from his touch.

"Why don't you go and get freshened up my love? I need to speak to the elders on something. Can you do that for me?" he asked seeing her blushing and nod.

"Y..Yes my king...." she whispered to stand up and goes to the washroom to do that. He smiled seeing her leave but he walks over to the mirror that was big as the doors. He used his power to focus on it and touches it with two fingers. His power flows through the mirror as it glows to show another image on the surface. He slowly pushes his hand through to step through the mirror as he was in another hidden room that shows more mirrors but each one is enchanted.

He looks around till seeing a black based mirror glowing. He walks over but sends a pulse of his power to make it glow. He knew it was the grand lords chambers or the meeting room. He saw the three tall dark figures in the darkened room but they look seeing Anthony.

"Ahh, your highness. What a surprise. We figure you got our letter?" he asked as Anthony closed his hand into a fist angry.

"Indeed I have.." he replies.

"Good, good. We don't wish to be intruding on anything but we do wish to meet with your new bride very soon. She seems to be a real good one if she is the one that took your heart."

"about that..." there was a flash of power and a swipe of claws as anthony lashed out severely wounding the one speaking to him. "it will take some hours even days to fully heal from that. i suggest you tell the others if they lay an eye on her im going to lay them in their graves." anthony said viciously and the other ran away.

he then went to each of the senders fo the letter and wounded them in a similar way but their prized body parts be they arms legs loins or eyes. he gave them all the same message and certainly didnt hold back as his energy was left in their bodies. the energy ws meant to induce constant agony an prevent the wounds from healing.
