It’s not every day you see the world for what it really is.
That’s precisely what the girl felt.
What did she felt?

Emmalee was not just your regular vampire. Of course, the resentment will always be there, she hated life. Instead of enjoying her immortal life, she was so persistent in trying to find a way to kill the time given. Before she even adopted the name she wears nowadays, she was like everyone, a person with an identity. An identity she both loved and hated. Before she was a vampire who lives off blood, she was a living person. Before she was Emmalee Ann Williams, she was Lee Seol Hwa.

It was around midnight which held the date, 4th of August 1539, when the cries of a newborn baby were heard throughout the neighborhood. That was the day where Lee Hae Do and Ha Min Soo welcomed a baby girl. The girl who was given the name, Lee Seol Hwa. Seol which meant a new start and beginning was such a blessed name. Little did the baby girl knew. The name will only prove to be a burden for her in the future.

As she grew up to be a fair maiden, she was spoiled by her household, whether it was the servants or her friends. She was widely known for her intelligence and wisdom that she acquired at such a young age. Due to her being the only child of the highest ranking official, Lee Hae Do, she had quite a reputation to keep. Many would think that given such a name and roots, she would be the perfect wife or daughter-in-law for the noble families. But she was far from being gentle and humble. That was also one of the reasons to why she only had a few friends who could tolerate her behavior.

She knew all the ethics and knowledge every noble girl should know, but that alone was not enough. She was known to be the person who scared the sons of many noble families. Basically, she did that for two reasons. One of which states she didn’t want her life to be tied down by marriage because she knew she could not do the things she wanted had it been that way. The latter being her personality. She liked the idea of her cold exterior making others question themselves before even talking to her.

Until she met the person that made her heart flutter comes time. Kim Jae Hyun, the personal guard of the crown prince Hwan. They met while they both were arguing after taking the wrong books. Who knew it sparked into more than friendship in a few years. He wasn’t someone that will make the cut to be one of her suitors unfortunately due to his lineage and that was bothering both sides. She was 17, the age where most women have been married off already. She might have sworn to celibacy which didn’t work since she was the only child, but the least she could do is stall the time. But as the feelings for Jae Hyun bloomed throughout the years of friendship, knowing the feelings were mutual, she was ready for marriage if it meant being together with him. It was the standard mindset of a teenage girl.

It was the day where her father was to send her to be one of the candidates for the crown prince’s wife who was around 17 at that time. She refused but her words never made it anywhere when her father forced her to attend the choosing ceremony. All she could think of was how the only good outcome was that she could meet Jae Hyun who rarely goes out of the palace due to him guarding the crown prince. She tried to fail herself at every stage given but much to her dismay, her father had warned her had she done what she was thinking, he would marry her straight off with the second highest official’s son whom she despised. Would she rather become of the crown prince’s concubines if she wasn’t crown princess? Yes, if it meant she can escape the fate of being married to her nemesis. She could take it as a chance to see Jae Hyun as well.

Things didn’t go as well as she had planned.

She was not chosen to be the crown princess due to her brash way of thinking when she was questioned where she often projected how she felt women should not be condemned to work only at their household as the wife. But she did make it to the final round with the other 3 more candidates where the 4 of them ultimately became candidates for the crown prince’s concubines if he needed. She was left to live out the remaining days of her free life but that soon changed when the crown princess was said to be infertile only a few months after the wedding and coronation. She wasn’t afraid the now King would choose her as a concubine because she was sure her behavior will disgust him. But no, her ferocity only increased his curiosity.

He picked her as his candidate as the next Queen to dethrone the current one. It wasn’t easy for the young ruler since his grandmother, the Dowager Queen deemed her inappropriate. But the longer he saw how she refused his affection, the more determined he became to dethrone the current Queen, which succeeded after he used her infertile state as an excuse. It wasn’t as if she had a say in it. Her dreams to elope with Jae Hyun was crushed.

The day before her coronation and wedding, she was wandering around the forest to calm herself down. Was she ready to step and live out the rest of her life tied down by someone who will probably take concubines if she didn’t bore him a son or if he was bored with her? Was she ready to live her life accordingly to the rules of the palace that limited her freedom? No. She couldn’t dare to kill herself because it would show how shallow she was, not to mention upset her parents deeply. While she resented his father at times for his decisions, she still loved and cared for him deeply because she knew he only wanted the best for her.

While she was thinking alone by the cliff late in the night, she was greeted by another presence. The dark aura surrounded the person and till this day, she had no idea who bit her that night. All she remembered was yelling out in pain before having her vision completely cut off that night. The next day, she woke up with a searing pain on her neck. She felt suffocated like she was in a small room where friends would tease her about it. She was feeling weak and disoriented that made her eyesight became hazy. She was in the room where the palace placed higher up nobles and royal members who died shortly. Was she dead? She knocked endlessly on the door, begging for someone to let her out when her prayers were accepted because a guard opened it. The guard who was around his late twenties was shocked to see her alive even though news traveled around regarding the death of the candidate for the future queen. She could hear the blood pumping through his veins and her eyes would not peel off from staring at his jugular vein, Everything would have been okay but then she smelt the blood coming from a small wound the guard had from previous struggle.

Fangs began to slowly appear from her canines and she bit into his neck, right next to the spot where his injury lingers. The next thing she knew, she was already draining the poor male. She wasn’t sure what happened but she was manipulated by fear, causing her to flee from the palace and went home. It wasn’t a good decision given how she was still a newborn vampire and could not control her thirst yet. She also found out that she could not go anywhere in the sun, resulting her stay in the forest and caves. She was guilt-ridden when she heard that the news of her entire household was slaughtered by an animal, knowing it was no animal. Her skin was even paler than usual and her eyesight has improved as well as her other senses. She couldn’t stay there any longer, knowing she had to feed to survive and she could not bear to hurt anyone in her hometown. She changed everything. Once she left, so did the thoughts of being with Jae Hyun.

For centuries, she had wandered around the globe, trying to search for her sire and maker, after finding out what she truly was. She wasn’t good with her thirst too. She has not killed anyone after that but she couldn’t stop herself from resisting the blood. She could stop feeding and let herself desiccate but the thought of letting her entire household perish from history because of her and giving up without finding the one who turned her this way made her go on. She was recently attracted to the eternal city she stumbled across, Evermore.

She was willing to change her lifestyle if she had a reason. She has heard about the rumors surrounding the city about Gideon Ashworth. She was hoping that alone could be something that motivates her to change for the better.
