~PROLOGUE~
~Aurora's POV~
"Being a princess has never been easy." was mother's infamous quote but she probably forgot to add the fact that being a "vampire princess" was much more fucking exhausting.
Watching people, fake smiles, boot licking, drama and theatrics and the most annoying part of it all, royal gatherings just like this one where politics and all sorts of things were discussed. Glasses clinked, blood wine was sipped, chattering, tidbits of conversation, nobles sucking up to each other. So familiar and yet so tiring. I've had to go through this a thousand times.
I badly wanted to leave but it was tradition. A princess never misses a gathering except when absolutely necessary. It was inescapable and boring. I needed some form of entertainment and if I didn't get it soon, I was going to kill someone.
I turned around and saw a servant walking past then I smirked.
"Time for some fun."
He was human, thus an easy prey. I signaled him to come over as I took a glass from his tray and sipped from it.
"Hmm this wine seems a little bit different from the others don't you think?".
I asked the servant. He trembled in fear before replying, "Ye..Yes, your highness. If you say so, your highness".
Well he walked into that one and now it was time to taunt him. "But I just didn't say so, I believe so."
He looked so confused and I was enjoying it.
"O.. Of course your highness.The wine is very nice".
"You lowly servant what makes you think so, or have you ever tasted the royals blood wine before hmm."
I asked as he shivered with fright.
"No-no your highness, I wouldn't dare, it's treason."
"Then why would you say it tastes different and even agree with me or have you indeed committed treason".
I sensed his discomfort as I laughed inwardly. Humans were so weak and pathetic.
