Nothing happened between him and I that night. Here I sit in my room alone just with my thoughts and my mind can not help but think of him. I stand and try t distract myself but nothing works.

I run out into the hall and push open the stone doors to the ballroom. There he sits alone as if he were waiting for me. He doesn't turn he just stares into the mirror looking at my reflection.

"Ever since I saw your face I was trying to deny there was something between us." I say without even thinking. "Was I born to love you?"

He stands from the chair and starts to walks to me. He has the look of a hunter in his eyes. Dracula comes to my side.

"You ask me these thing as if you already did not know the answer." he says as he circles me.

"There is only so much I can understand and my thoughts run wild. Please don't make me love you." I beg him as he takes my hand and lead me to the mirror.

I look in the mirror and only see my reflection. I turn back around and look into his eyes. For years I dreamt of this man. I'm not sure I can go through all this. I can't tell him anything. I watch as his face grows closer to mine as he leans in and presses his lips against mine. I fell my senses heighten. I've stepped across a dangerous line. I give into my feeling that I can no longer hide.

I wake beside him fully aware things would never be the same. I quickly get dressed when I catch a glimpse of his face in the moonlight.

"Am I hopelessly in love?" I ask myself.

I go over the bed and sit beside him. I lean in and kiss him goodbye. I run to my room and dress in my normal clothes then go out and grab a horse and start my way to Rome.

Dracula's POV

I watch as she takes off on the horse. I have made her mind but she must go take her revenge alone. She will return. I just know that she will.

~Stay safe my Trinity~

The horse escapes my vision as I look out to the landscape. She wasn't her mother but something more. When she asked me that question. She asked me if she was born to love me? Could it be she is the answer I was seeking for centuries?

I walk back to the bed and lay down. I can still sense her next to me. I can smell her sweet scent. I look to the heavens and just wait until she returns.

Days turn to weeks, Weeks turn into Months.

I grow worried for my new woman in my life. I watch in the moonlight from the balcony as I hear horses in the distance. Looking down I see three horses coming up the way. There she was, after 3 months she had returned.

Quickly I go to the room Serenity lays and await her.

Trinity POV

I dismount the horse with my father and Carl by my side. It wasn't easy explaining everything to dad but when he finally understood he helped me with my revenge. Needless to say it will take the order a very long time to clean up our mess.

We walk through the halls and into Dracula's room. My father rushes over to the stone coffin. I watch as he looks down and falls to his knees.

"You've returned Trinity. I never thought you would." Dracula says as he walks out of the shadows.

I walk over to him as he embraces me. Carl watches us in amazement.

"Van Helsing are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Carl asks.

My father barely turns to look he is too busy morning my mother.

"Trinity has he turned you?" Carl asks me.

"No, I have been in his embrace on my own free will." I tell him as I look up at Dracula. "Maybe this was what I was born to do."

"Trinity he has tricked you mind, Dracula can not be trusted." he yells to me.

I turn back and look at Carl. I feel my blood start to boil. He can't be trust no its the order who could not be trusted. They were the ones who murdered my mother in cold blood.

"You can't be trusted, murdering my mother in cold blood." I yell at Carl. "At last I know what I am meant to think! You wanted to trick me as the ordered did to my mother!"

"Trinity do you hear yourself! The order will come for Dracula and you know it. If you are here they will kill you as well." Carl tells me.

Dracula takes me from the room and locks the doors behind us. We stop in a strange room one I had not seen before. It was full of weapons.

"What are we doing in here?" I ask him.

"You think your birth right was to love me? Then prove it now." he says as he walks to the wall.

I look at him confused as he brings a steak in his hand.

"No, I won't do it! Please don't make do this!" I yell at him and I back away.

"You have sacrificed so much for you and your mother, It will most likely not be permanent." he says as he keeps following me.

"No, I won't do it!" I yell back at him as I keep myself far from him.

"The first time you saw me was not when you met me but in your dreams?" he asks me. "Then you fell hopelessly in love with me. I can not condemn you as I have the others."

"I was born to love you then! It is not my choice? is it not my soul?" I yell as I am backed against a wall.

"I can't this is a world of which you do not belong! I will not condemn your soul!" he says pushing the stake into my hands and pulling me in for a kiss.

"Please don't make me end you." I try to beg him one last time.

"I will never forget you but this is not meant to be Trinity, do as your mother and father have before release me." he says as he takes my hand with the stake and points it at his heart.

As the doors burst open he takes my hand and he thrusts himself forward onto the stake. I look over and see my father with Carl looking at me in shock and horror. I look back to Dracula and all he does is kiss me one last time then he just disappears.

"She killed him? How is that possible?" Carl asks as I fall to my knees. "Van Helsing?"

"Enough Carl" my dad says as he walks over to me. "Trin?"

"Will he ever come back?" I ask him as I barely look up.

"Something tells me he will but now he just decided to take his own life but by your hand." My father tells me as he helps me to my feet.

"Or this is just the beginning of a much bigger plan." Carl says as we walk back to the stone coffin and see the ice is gone but my mother still lays there.

My dad picks up her body and we leave the castle. I look back out of curiosity and see a shadow in the window. I smile and continue walking. My father put my mother on a stack of wood and lit it. This was said to release her spirit. I didn't know if that was true or not.

I watch as the smoke rises as Carl brings the horses up. I look and see the sun rising. I smile as I can see my mother smiling in my mind. This isn't the end I think to myself, this is just the beginning.
