Hey people, okay so here goes another shot at another story. But this one is a series, so let's hope that it goes the way I plan for it to. I'm so happy!! The idea for this story has been haunting me for like a month now so I finally said, okay already I'll start it! So I did, and here it is!!!! Yay!!!! Okay, I just want to clear some things up here before I let you read, one, I hate I's so all my I's in my character's names are Y's like, Rayne and Nyght and a few more. I don't know I just hate them. Anyway, this story is called Hope Everlasting: The Chronicles of Levithia, because.... Well, it takes place in a country called Levithia. Duh so yeah, you'll also notice that the story takes place in the present time which I have never done before as far as writing fantasy so, we'll see how that goes. It should be very interesting... but, we'll see... Okay, and one more little thing, this chapter is pretty much the "What the hell is going on" chapter (As I call it) The good stuff happens in Chapter two and on.
Anyway, I'll let you people read now, Enjoy!! ^_^
Hope Everlasting: the chronicles of Levithia
Chapter One
The sound of rain hitting the bedroom window woke him up. The half- blooded vampire groaned as he stretched his arms and pulled himself out of bed. The full length mirror that hung on the back of the bedroom door revealed a twenty year old with near shoulder length auburn hair and emerald azure eyes. There was something special about Rayne that all the people of Levithia knew, not only was he the heir to the Levithian throne, but the day he was born the stars that shown over his fair country shown brighter then ever. Rayne pulled on his robe and left his bedroom, walking down the long hallway into the main hall. To everyone in the country Rayne was perfect through their eyes, to himself, he was less than perfect.
"Good morning Rayne." Amelia said with a smile as her brother entered the large sitting room, her curly red hair was pulled back into a ponytail as she sat by the fireplace with a book in her lap. "Or should I say good afternoon?" she asked looking down at her watch. Two o'clock. She shook her head and closed her book.
"Do you know where Ashe is?" Rayne asked as he crossed his arms over his chest and looked at Amelia.
"Hmm...." She thought for a moment. "I saw him earlier this morning.... But- sorry, I haven't seen him so I'm not sure where he is."
Rayne looked at her disappointedly. "Damn, I was hoping you'd know where he is, I don't want to have to go looking for him..."
"Sorry bro."
"Damn it."
"Check the study; he's been spending a lot of time in there, that's where he might be." The red haired woman answered with a soft smile as she retuned to her book.
"Thanks..." Rayne said as he turned and headed for the study. Sure enough, he found Ashe lying on the couch by the window, his cell phone lying on his stomach as he breathed. He looked so peaceful in his sleep; his dirty blond hair fell over his natural tan colored skin. Rayne smiled faintly as he knelt down beside the couch and brushed back the younger man's hair, he yawned and opened his eyes, looking up at Rayne. "Hey you." Rayne said as he pulled himself on to his knees and pressed his lips against the blonde's.
"Hi...." Ashe breathed breathlessly as he pulled away and smiled.
"I thought you left me." Rayne said teasingly as he ran his fingers loosely through the seventeen year old angel's hair.
"Now why would I do something like that?" The younger man asked as he sat up and smiled at Rayne.
Rayne returned the smile and wrapped his arms around Ashe's waist and pulled him close. "Have I ever told you how extremely cute you look when you sleep?"
"I am not." The blond answered as he looked away and blushed.
The prince tucked his index finger gently under Ashe's chin and made him look into his eyes. "Yes you are..." he said as he kissed Ashe again making him blush an even darker shade of red. The blonde's arms wrapped around Rayne's neck as he pressed his lips firmly against the older teen's.
"Rayne..." Ashe breathed as he looked into the prince's eyes and smiled. "I love you..."
"I love you too Ashe." Rayne said as he stood up and kissed his angel one more time. "I have to go alright, I have things I need to take care of." He said as he walked out of the study.
Ashe let out a soft sigh. "Alright...." He said under his breath as he leaned his head back against the couch.

Rayne sat behind a large wooden desk twirling a pencil between his fingers, listening to the royal council members talk his ear off. "You are almost of age Rayne, I mean, one more years you'll be twenty one and you will be crowned king." Carlos said as he looked at Rayne. "The country believes that you will make a good king, you're father did as well."
Rayne sighed. "I will make my father proud, him and my people." The half vampire said as he stood up from his place at the table. "But first off, I have a few things I want to clear up."
"Um.... Okay." The purple haired man said as he looked at his liege nervously.
"I want my privacy; I don't want people bothering me every time I turn around." Rayne said as he walked over to the large glass window. "I know me becoming king is not going to be the easiest thing in the world, but I'll try my best to make my people proud.... And Ashe...." `I want him to be proud of me, that's all that matters... I want him to be happy...'
A woman with long black hair and crimson red eyes laughed softly as she looked up at Rayne and stood up. "There is no doubt what so ever that you're not you're father's son... you're just like him."
Rayne looked at the woman and smiled faintly. "Thank you..."
"You're most certainly welcome, young prince." She answered retuning the smile as she sat back down in her seat.
"Alright then, I think this meeting is over." Rayne said as he started walking out of the conference room.
"Oh, Rayne!" Carlos called after him.
The dark haired prince stopped at the door and turned to look at the older man. "Yes?"
"Don't forget about the ball you are supposed to have on Halloween."
"I know Carlos, I know." Rayne answered with a smile as he left the room, closing the door behind him.

Ashe sat on the window seal watching the rain hit the glass; he let out a soft sigh and stood up. "Rayne..." he said softly as he walked over to the other side of the room and sat down in an arm chair. "Why does he make me feel like this?"
"Hey, you love him.... That's what love feels like." Jett answered with a smile as he brushed back his dark brown hair and watched as Ashe bit his nails nervously.
"I know... but, he's always busy, I guess I can't blame him though." Ashe said as he looked at Jett. "Right?"
"Exactly, you're boyfriend's a busy man, I mean, you're with the fucking future king of Levithia." Jett answered as he looked at the flames in the fireplace they were sitting in front of.
"I know."
Jett smiled. "Hey, Rayne loves you, that's all that matters. He wouldn't let anything happen to you, alright?"
"Alright." Ashe answered as he smiled back.
"Well, I gotta run, I'll check on you later okay,Ashe?"
"Hm? What? Oh, okay." The blond answered as he starred at the floor.
"Hey." Jett said as he walked over to the bedroom door.
"What?" Ashe asked as he looked up at his friend and smiled.
"Don't ever doubt Rayne okay? He does love you."
"I know."
"Bye." Jett said shaking his head and leaving the room.
Ashe sat back in his chair and closed his eyes. `I hope Rayne loves me as much as he says he does...'
