Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Vampire abilities
In a mediocre living room, a young man of about 19years old, red hair with streak of purple, white and black with a deep red eyes like blood and purple rim round the iris sat on a blue couch watching a show on the TV in the sitting room, who else would it be if not Eli the newly turned vampire
Eli, the food is ready, come eat he heard a voice behind him from the dinning room where Selene was calling him with a smile on her face
She had insisted on helping him mom with the chores in the kitchen when she went to cook, He had asked her about how his mother knows her as he was shocked but it was only because when she 'charmed'his mother, she also mad her think that she is his friend from school, it was really surprising to know that 'charm' can change someone's memories
But she told him he has to be proficient in it and had to have a very high bloodline among the vampire s to do it or it will only charm the person slightly and can't affect the memory
Eli, Selene called him again as she saw that he was too deep in thought, he snapped out of it and went to the dinning
The table was already set when he stepped into the dining room — not fancy, but carefully arranged. A roast chicken sat at the center, golden skin crackling slightly under the kitchen light, surrounded by thick-cut potatoes and carrots still glistening with olive oil and herbs. Elizabeth poured water into glasses with a quiet grace, while Selene walked over to pull out a chair for him, it was really a bit awkward for him knowing that a vampire princess was pulling out a chair for him, but he kept his cool and sat down
The scent of rosemary and garlic filled the room, warm and grounding
Ohhhhh, you are here his mother said after pouring the water in his cup which he thanked her with, thanks mom
The waited for his mother to sit before eating, sitting at the edge of the table was his mother, he was sitting at the side of the table while Selene was sitting in front of him
When his mother started eating, both of them also ate their food, the atmosphere was silent and peaceful, his mother also asked some questions about school, his friend James whose house he was coming back from last night before he was bitten by Selene as he is his only friend and other insignificant things, they talked and laugh with selene, his mother is actually a fun person to be with and she cares a lot about him which makes him happy, he looks up at her face and see her smiling face, he also smiled when saw her smile
When she saw him looking at her face she asked,
Dear, is there something on my face, No he said still smiling, shaking her head she continued eating, while talking with selene, snapping out of it he also continued eating his food
When they finished eating dinner, his mother started packing the plate s for washing
Mother you should go and sleep, you need more rest, don't worry about the plate I will wash it, his mother was about to decline when Selene said you can leave it to us ma we will wash the plate
Seeing that they won't budge from their decision she said thank you and don't sleep late, okay?
Okay ma, Selene you can sleep in the guest room upstairs, selene was about to refuse when Elizabeth said this is too late in the night I can't allow you to go home now, you can call your parents that you are staying with your friend today
Selene looked at the clock and saw that it was 17 minutes after 12, she didn't know it was this late into the night though nothing will happen to her if she go back home but Elizabeth does not know that so she agreed
Elizabeth went back to her room to sleep while Selene and Eli went to wash the plates together in the kitchen
There was silence between them when they were washing the plate and Eli seeks to break it as it was getting awkward, trying to find a topic to talk about he said when can you start teaching me about the vampire abilities, I can sense that I am stroner, faster, and my sense in also sharper, but I don't know anything about the abilities I have, then he grew thoughtful, I have my own ability right?
She looked at him for a second before she continued to wash the plate while answering him
I will teach you about some basic vampire abilities tonight especially charm because of your appearance and we will start you real training tomorrow as you must learn how to protect yourself
But about your ability, you are turned by the peak of vampire bloodline so you will have but it will be different form mine because you are not a pure vampire form my family but a turned thrall
For example if a noble vampire who has the ability of destruction turn someone into a vampire the person may have the ability for fire as it can cause destruction or the ability for destruction but it won't be as strong
He thought about it then he asked the question he wanted to ask since, since you are from the Progenitor family what is your ability, he has been curious about the ability since he heard that different vampire family has different abilities
She smiled at his question then answered I have the ability for destruction she said and a black fire appeared on her hand burning fiercely, as soon as she brought out the fire Eli stepped back as a wave of terror washed over him, he fell like just touching the flame can annihilate him both body and soul without any chance of coming back, what the f*ck is that he asked with dread Washing over him
