Chapter 32

† Spencer †

Digging through the archives became more enjoyable than Spencer had imagined.

Prosper could not enjoy the moment with him, as he worked on the treaty documents. As King, he had demands to make of the council members, to ensure that his people were getting the fairest treatment. To ensure that, his King had to know what issues were foremost in the minds of his people.

Spencer could not have been prouder of his wish to improve the city and keep the humans safe. Prosper cared about the safety of every citizen under his rule; vampire or human.

Turning another antique page in the tower of loose papers, Spencer scanned the words for anything that may be relevant. He did not know what he was searching for, only that he watched for a sign of his true parentage.

Prosper had not promised that he would find answers, but suggested that if they were to be found anywhere, it would be within the vampire archives. The one benefit of immortality was that one vampire could chronicle the lives of two or even four human generations.

Spencer believed he would not have to venture any further than fifty years, to find a mention of his true family. He was not sure if he would be included in these papers, but believed there must be some sign that would point him in the right direction.

He froze, as he spotted the word 'orphanage' in the thirty-first piece of paper. He drew it closer to the light and scanned the contents eagerly. “...soldier...duty...” he said, his lips moving silently as he read. “...trusted his only child, a son and heir, to my care.”

He wanted to scream Eureka! as he realised this must refer to him. But he did not want to presume too much. He continued reading and searched for something concrete.
