1 Chapter 1

Not again. I am just fed of people bossing me around. It is me who will decide what to do with my life. My life my choices. Is it wrong to wish that? Is it wrong to live your life the way you want it to be? The anger on my face was soon replaced by worries and helplessness as reality dawned upon me.

I still remember the day, 10 years back, when I was forced to leave my family, forced to come to Dallas, leaving my country and forced to enter this world of supernatural. Though I'm still a human and I live among humans but I am related to the supernaturals. How? I don't know. This is what I was told when I and my friend Amy were brought here.

So, here I am today waiting, in a cafe, for the people of the supernatural world to come to me. It's been an hour since I am here. I was told to meet the witches as they have something important to tell me.

Do I care? No. But I have to be present here, after all, they all are so much powerful than me. And I have faced the outcomes of my 'impoliteness' towards them.

"Sorry to make you wait, Miss Claire".

I looked up to find 3 women standing in front of me. All in their mid twenties. They took their seats staring me all the while.

"So, what do you all want me to do now?" I questioned.

I was really pissed off with them controlling my life.

"At first I want to apologize for troubling you again Miss Claire. And my name is Lily" she said extending her hand towards me.

We shook hands and I said "May I know the reason for us being here? And yes please call me Claire"

"Oh sure you can Miss" said the blonde one "we've been sent here by the orders of the king".

"You mean the King of Supernaturals?" I asked surprised. Why does the King has sent them to me? I wondered, trying to remember my sins. Are they here to kill me? I really haven't done anything that he needs to send witches for me.

Neither I have any personal grudges with him. I haven't even seen him ever, but I have definitely heard of him, being the most evil, cruel and dangerous person... or say vampire on earth.

"Yes Miss. The supernatural king." Said the blonde, breaking my chain of thoughts. "And we are here to inform you that... uhh.... actually..."

"What is it? Spill up. Please" I begged afraid of what was going to come next. I was already tensed and now her stammering was making me impatient.

I don't know why but I was having a feeling that I really don't want to hear it.

"You will have to marry the King"said Lily.

And then there was silence. I kept staring at the three of them waiting for them to laugh and say they were kidding, but they didn't.

Breaking the silence I spoke "Pardon. I think I didn't hear you correctly".

"You heard it right Miss and we have reasons for..."

"Whatever the reasons are! I don't give give a damn about them! I will not marry him! When will you people stop controlling my life!". I yelled not able to control my fury. Out of all the things they could have said, this was the least expected one.

They want me to marry their king. He is not just a king but the King of Supernaturals. He is a monster. They think I'm nuts. They will say and I will do. No not this time. Not ever.

"Please listen to us, Miss Claire" Lily said.

"No. You listen to me Miss Lily. You all want me to marry your so called king, reason, I don't care, because I won't ever marry him. Though I haven't ever seen or met him but that doesn't mean that I haven't heard of that jerk before. So now the three of you will directly go to that monster and tell him that I am not at all interested a cruel, evil, arrogant and egoistic beast like him!".

I said in fury and was about to leave when suddenly my body went numb. I was not able to move. Not even a single finger of mine was moving. I looked up to see the three of them smiling.

They did it? They are witches. Of course, they did it.

"We're really sorry to do this, Miss Claire, but we need to tell you about this. We have been ordered" said Lily in a serious tone.

"No I don't want to hear it. Leave me!" I yelled making futile efforts to move myself.

Ignoring me they started "It all started in 1836 when Queen Emiline was killed by some traitors. Her children didn't ascend the throne and it remained empty for about a century. Then our people chose a King and he took the throne some 70-80 years back. We got to know that you are of the same bloodline as of Queen Emiline and that is why you were brought here 10 years back. Now that you are 25, your people need their Queen".

"Emiline died 2 centuries back. You think I am related to her? Are you out of your mind. My parents are human. They live in India. You know about it. You took me away from them. Emiline was a witch. I don't have anything to do with her." I said in an anger filled voice.

"You are of her bloodline. It doesn't matter who you are or who your parents are. It was already chosen for you. Being from her bloodline it means you have her powers and strength in you. You are meant to lead the supernaturals and be their Queen".

And with that they freed me. But I was still in shock to move. It took me full 2-3 minutes to process all this.

"I am not your Queen" I whispered.

"You are Miss"

"I'm not and I won't marry him"

"You'll have to Miss"

"No, I won't".

And I left from there.
