BIANCA furrowed her eyebrows. "What the hell is Blue Blood? Pure? What are you talking about Gabe? I am a normal Sicilian human that just found out that my birth parents were in that village that I—" she gulped, "burned," she whispered before Bianca was getting up from her seat, pacing back and forth in front of him.

Gabriel clenched his jaws, staring into the flames as Bianca was waiting for his explanation. Then, he sighed. "Blue blood is a state where you're not a Vampire yet you have the strength and speed of that species. It is required from eating a fruit which was known as Forbidden Fruit.

"It looks like a common apple but it has tiny stripes that usually get overlooked and grow in this pine forest of Lacul Rosu," Gabriel looked at his wife as he arched his eyebrow.

"You don't happen to be eating one of those when you're in the village, did you?" he asked. Bianca smiled sheepishly.

"Well... I did pick one and had them for dessert, I think," she said as she was rubbing her throbbing temple.

"But I cannot be sure what this apple had to do with the fire that I created in the forest," she said as Gabriel smiled.

"I'm getting to that. The Forbidden Fruit can slow our aging process to look young and sometimes, it can be used as a cataclysm to some powerful Blue Blood lineage.

"They have powers, Elemental class, and Psychic Class. The more powerful the lineage, sometimes, the Blue Blood can control both classes," he explained. Bianca's eyebrows arched.

"Elemental Class? Are you talking about basic elements that can be controlled such as water, earth, fire, and wind?" she asked Gabriel as he nodded at her. He smiled.

"You forgot one more element. Lightning," he said as Bianca was rolling her eyes with a smile on her lips.

"Okay, smart ass," she replied, her husband smirking. Then, she settled next to him as she wanted to know more about this.

"What about the Psychic Class? What are they?" she asked as Gabriel looked at the fire.

"The Psychic Class consists of powers that are controlled by the mind. For example, my cousin Aaron has telepathy and telekinesis which both are in Psychic Class. It's is rare for Blue Blood to have more than one power but Aaron is a special case," Gabriel stated as Bianca was arching her eyebrow at him.

"And why is that?" she asked.

Her husband smirked. "His lineage goes back to the founder of Blue Blood. Let's just say that he's related to the royalty of our species," Gabriel said as Bianca nodded.

Then, he continued his lecture on their lineage. "So, the common Blue Blood felt threatened by those who had more than one power, meaning that most powerful Blue Blood, which we're referred to as Pure Blood, must go into hiding. But you were exposed that day and was caught the Huntress," he explained as Bianca was trying to remember who the hell was the Huntress.

Then it hit her mind.

She snapped her fingers. "It was that woman, the one that fought with Aaron, right?" she asked as Gabriel nodded grimly.

"Unfortunately, yes. That is her, Astrid Larsen, the hunter from the Order of Holy and it seems that she's the strongest vampire hunter in the world right now, hence she debuted as The Huntress of the Order," he explained again as she stared at him.

Bianca blinked her eyes. "Vampire hunter? I thought we're not vampires. Yet anyway. You said we're Blue Blood!" she exclaimed before Gabriel turned and gripped her arms. She bared her teeth at her husband.
