The Kings Blood
Chapter one of my Royal Vampiric Redacted AU
I posted " The King Precious" a small piece of this story, this is the beginning of the story. You don't need to read "The King Precious" for this story to make sense but if you'd like to it is linked
This story is about the servants so there are uncomfortable bits of unconceual stuff, I will label the chapters as specifically as I can.
Words: 1.5 k
Characters: William, Quinn, Tank, Vincent, Sam, Porter and Treasure
Tw: Servitude, mention of character death ( non-descriptive), vague threats, Quinn, Unconsensual smelling ( vampires smelling human blood), nonconsensual control ( pushing and pulling a person around) Vampires speaking down about the human race ( sees them as meat and servants.)
They were gathered at the entrance chattering among themselves
The king didn't leave often and when he did he made it a point to update his people on his journey
Except for this time
Which put everyone on edge
They were all ready for answers from their king
The chattering halted when the grand doors opened
Revealing a vampire that no one could name
The people began to talk again
Watching and judging the man as he just stood there
The sound of heavy metal hitting the floor rang through the castle
King William's cane rolled across the floor
The room filled with fearful silence
The man who through the cane spoke
“Perfect.”
Everyone was confused, but too afraid to talk or look away
“ Servants of Dahlia castle. I, Quinn Fox, have killed your king.”
The people stayed quiet but a chill ran through everyone
“ Compared to King William's power, you servants are nothing so I exp-
“ Residents.”
Vincent, the adopted prince of Dahlia, steps out from the crowd.
He moves without fear approaching the vampire
“ They are not servants.”
Vincent is too distracted by his rage to notice the vampire wave for protection, but the crowd stays silent.
Vincent steps closer
“They are the residents of King William.”
Before he can take another step, a knight blocks his way, a sword dangerously close to his chest.
The sword isn't what stops Vincent.
It is the face of the knight
“ Good Porter. Let's be a little faster next time.”
Porter moves forward forcing Vincent back into the crowd.
“ Like I said William is dead, making him no longer king. So I will call my servants what I want.”
“YOUR SERV-”
Porter's sword moves closer, shutting Vincent up
“ I dearly hope the rest of you aren't this idiotic. Yes, MY servants. I killed your king and have come here for the throne. So make way.”
Porter releases his sword and makes his way towards the throne
A few people whisper ‘traitor’ as he makes his way through
He ignores them
Many people notice a frail-looking person following behind their new ruler.
The person is shackled, bites liter their body, and their head stays pointed to the ground.
The people know what this is, it wasn't uncommon for powerful vampires to keep specific humans as constant food.
It made the people uncomfortable because they realized that could be their future
King William was described as strange by many powerful vampires, because of the way he treated humans.
Most vampires saw them as cattle, servants they could feed off and sell.
William saw something else.
He treated the act of feeding as a trade, humans sacrifice their blood and in return, they would be given extra rest from their other duties, or if they preferred extra resources.
The people began to realize that their luck had run out.
William's killer took a seat on the throne.
He was pleased, his arrogance was palpable
As Quinn sat in the throne his eye scanned through the crowd.
Everyone saw as his pupils blew open and his eyes landed on someone.
“Delicious.”
His grin grew, as the person he spotted looked into his eyes
“Porter, retrieve that one for me.”
Porter took a step before stopping as the person stepped forward their self
“I do not need to be assisted.”
The person boldly strutted up to the throne
Stopping a mear foot away from the new king
“ What is it you want from me.”
Quinn laughed
“ You are quite bold for a human.”
He waited for a reaction from the human, disappointed to only receive an emotionless glare
“Tell me precious, what's your family name?”
“ Why does it matter?”
The room got tenser every time they spoke
“Testing a theory.”
“ I never knew my family.”
“Ohh how sad. Now I'll never know for sure.”
“Know what?”
He ignored their question
“Anyone ever tell you how amazing you smell?”
In retaliation to his avoidance, they stayed quiet.
“Well, you smell divine. Quite literally in fact. You see, some families have blood that is more enticing to certain vampire clans. Cost us vampires a pretty penny. And your blood, my precious.”
He takes their hand, pressing his nose into it as he breathes in the scent of their blood.
“ Was made for me.”
He looks at them, his eyes have turned red.
He watches as the human still doesn't react.
“ You don't believe me?”
The human doesn't reply
He is starting to like this challenge
“I shall prove it.”
He stands up from the throne
He makes his way to the edge of the crowd.
Investigating the servants closer than before.
When catches a hint of what he is looking for he motions his hands
The people move out of his way.
He smiles when he locks eyes with the vamp.
He motions for the vampire servants to approach.
He obeys
“You are a vampire, correct?”
The man replies call a steady.
“Not compared to you sir, but yes.”
“Oh, I can tell.”
The king scuffed at the lower vampire
“Come”
The two make it out of the crowd and back to the throne, where the person remained
The king took rest in his throne, before instructing the other vampire.
“ Smell their blood, and describe it to me.”
The two servants faced each other.
The vampire's jaw tightened as he looked at his close friend
He hadn't done anything yet but his eyes could only be described as apologetic
“ Word of advice for the future, I am not a patient king, nor am I merciful. So, smell them.”
Sam peered through the corner of his eyes at his new supposed king.
He knew this man was dangerous
He peered back at Vincent
The only one in the castle who understood the torment this brought Sam.
Sam respected and cared for this person too much to act without permission.
This isn't how he wanted this to go.
Not to mention that he didn't need to get close to describe their scent
He knew it better than he knew his family
It was best to keep that hidden from the king
To Sam, the best choice was to defy the king.
He was ready for the punishment.
Vincent could tell exactly what he was thinking
He cursed him silently, feeling powerless
Then they lifted their hand
Sams's eyes widened
This situation was unique
But he never expected them to play this man's game.
Sam looked into their eyes.
He had never seen that look in their eyes
A little watery
So bright
With fear
With need
Their eyes were the definition of pleading
And he couldn't deny them
So as gently as he could, his hand met theirs
Taking the weight for himself
He stepped closer
He looked into their eyes again
His eyes red
Yet still full of apologies
He held this eye contact as he leaned down to their wrist
Their pulse was strong, almost racing
He noted it as fear as he took a moment to smell for their blood
Instinctively closing his eyes as he took it in
Fresh rain
Pine trees
The smell of a forest path on a dewy morning
The smell makes Sam dream of the world outside of this castle
Outside in the free, empty land that he used to call home.
He rises away from their hand, softly dropping it back to them
His eyes still closed as he takes a deep breath, cleansing his senses.
He opens his eyes
They've returned to dark silver
He gives them a comforting smile before turning to Quinn
“They smell of pine, sir.”
Quinn's smile grows
“ And what do most of the humans you feed off smell like?”
He is taken aback
“I don't feed often sir”
Quinn rolls his eyes
“Well of course, not with your weak blood. Still, answer my question."
Sam felt humiliated in front of his human friends.
Though he answered
“Meat sir.”
“Exactly, you can return to the crowd.”
Sam wants to risk a look at them but he's smarter than that.
He returns the crowd
Once he is there and Quinn knows everyone is watching he grabs the servant
The smallest gasp escapes their mouth as he pulls them closer to him by their wrist
They land on his lap
“ You see precious. Most humans smell like meat, then there's some that smell of fruit, those aren't too rare to find, just rare to find unclaimed. Now you…”
He takes a sniff from their collarbone to their ear
“ You smell like a forest. Seems unappetizing to now vampires but it's a true treat. You were made for vampires. Your family is a line of breed humans the vampire desired. Unfortunately, they weren't pleased with that life and many did everything they could to escape, even ending their own lives…but you are here, by some miracle, just for me.”
No one could see
Even if they could they were too busy watching the king
But sams mouth was filling with his blood
His fingernails made gashes in his hand
Holding himself back
Refusing to make this worse
Vincent noticed as his friend blew hot air from his nose
He was ready to step in himself to stop this from going any further
But someone else had the same idea.
“Sir, are you ready to be shown the rest of the castle?”
Porter announced
Quinn's eyes brightened ready for more royal pleasures
“Of course.”
THANKS FOR READING!!!!

I can't stop thinking about @astrodude-87 idea/theory that treasure is geordi after leaving cutie so here's some thoughts on treasure geordi
So one day treasure and porter are talking maybe about vampires and trancing comes up
And that scares geordi a little because it's so similar to the lack of co troll that he felt with cuties telepathy
Porter never even brought it up as a thing he wanted to do with them, he was just talking about part of being a vampire
But geordi can't stop thinking about it, letting his mind run on about how this is something porter probably wants and that geordi can't do
I'll write something, and then I'll lose interest for the sole reason that if I want to post it, I would do best if I edited it, and I HATE editing.
anyway while we’re here
*adds porter & treasure to my list of blk redacted characters*
i feel like treasure’s mixed, like afro-latino/a/x (i still don’t know what the community prefers as the gender neutral term 😭), and then porter’s a black british man (he’s so me /hj)
i’m so glad i’m not the only one who sees the only ones redacted fans wanna hc as violent are blk 😭and they’ll throw in big athletic dumbass in there for good measure. i love milo, dames and hux don’t get me wrong, it’s just so depressing that racism has to reach every corner that i’m in. i wanna be black and love things in peace
If porter and Vincent get to meet and be mean to each other I feel lovely and treasure should as well.
But also making sure they all do it safely.
Just in case. Yk?
Also I can just imagine the face on lovely when porters like
“Oh yeah I’m a masochist so that punch you threw at me gave me a boner”
And their just like
“What.. so.. that punch.. wasn’t painful for you..?”
And treasures just like
“You let someone else give you pleasure through pain? AND THEY WERE HOT???”
I swear treasure and lovely find each other so fucking attractive after they realize they have a crush on each other its not even funny
(making the vamp!poly thing start yada yada yada)
So there's the DAMN poly, and I've seen Shaw pack poly. Is there a vamp poly?
If you are reading this, then I overslept the monarchal summit. That being said,
Tell me all your favorite moments and spoil me everything!!!
Go into unnecessary details about small moments you liked! I unironically enjoy being spoiled things (especially when I'm nervous about them)!
What I wouldn't give for Treasure to take a dull ass kitchen knife and just sloppily gut Porter for three hours and while he's in immense pain he's also giving them tips on how to do it just for curiosity's sake
The wedding has finally arrived!!! 💒🔔✨
As much as I love these characters, I would really like to transition to focusing on the vampires now, specifically the Solaires (duh lol). There's so much potential for new characters. Dimitri Rebane, more Porter audios, mayyyyybe William audios (👀), who knows!!! (Please read below!!!!! I have so many ideas and need to dump them somewhere) (⚠️pun not intended⚠️).
People may not agree with me on that, but hear me out! Vincent and Sam left the house of Solaires, so we could get audios here and there about where they (and their relationships) end up. Since the wedding is done and David stated that during the summit, someone from the house of Wright told him to stay away from the Solaires, that would give more of a reason to have dispersed audios for Vincent and Sam and to include new characters. They've been around for a long while now, and the werewolf culture is hashed out, so I feel that there isn't much else to do with them.
Here are some arcs that I think would be cool to enter:
1) Although we know about werewolf culture, we only know a little about vampire culture and their politics. I would absolutely LOVE to see how that comes to play in Porter and Treasure's relationship (*Important note*: During the summit, when it was pointed out by the Prince of the house of Bennet that Vince killed someone, Porter was Q.U.I.C.K to defend him by saying that Adam violated the bite/claim marking). It seems that Porter is very protective of Treasure and values the relationship with them, so I think there's opportunity to hash out Vamp culture/politics through that. Ex: Someone has an eye out for Treasure, Porter freaks out but they don't know why, then we get an explanation. Idk why, but it's interesting to me that Porter covered for Vince that quick, and for *that* reason. Of course that could be explained away bc he literally killed a King and was in charge of creating an alibi, but it felt like foreshadowing to me. At some point Treasure is going to have to be informed that their man's a hitman, and maybe it's the toxicity in me but I think Porter being quick to unalive someone for violating that bite claim could be an entry way into that conversation.
1.5) If we get Will as an official character (listener wise), then we can see how his and Porter's...uhhh...relationship. When we were introduced to Porter, he was very adamant (again, no pun intended) that Treasure's friends were not good people and went into a tangent about transactional relationships. I fully feel like this was a projection of his and Will's friendship. To support my point, the next audio was him contemplating the validity and ethics of the friendship. He even questioned if he was scared of Will. It would be great to see this explored further by more vamp politics videos. In my recent post about Porter, I wondered whether Will is going to manipulate Porter into becoming next in line for succession. Alexis is trash, Vincent is gone...so who's left???
2) Speaking of monarchies and successions, I know the fooliverse audios are not supposed to be taken as canon, but it's interesting that Erik brought up a whole new character for Milo's audio. Dimitri Rebane. Like...we get a first AND last name??? For a non-canon arc??? 🤨 We didn't even get Asher's last name until what? Almost a year ago? Erik seems very organized and well thought out, so even though the fooliverse arc itself isn't canon, the characters sure are. AND Mr. Rebane is a KING??? How come he wasn't brought up in the summit??? Hmmm.....🤔 Wouldn't it be crazy if he does become a canon character and ends up murdering Will and taking over the Solaire clan? Maybe he messes up the friendship with Porter to no return (maybe by messing with Treasure somehow) and Porter helps Dimitri become king because he's better, and he won't have to take up more responsibility than he could handle.
3) I get it, some people may prefer werewolves to vampires. But I think everyone forgot that THERE'S A WHOLE ASS WEREWOLF PACK THAT HAS NOT BEEN COVERED YET‼️‼️‼️We have the Keaton pack, but does anyone remember during one of Erik's channel anniversary streams where he did a kahoot-style game and alluded to the Moore pack (no, not Lasko lol). There were four options, the Shaw pack, the Keaton pack, the Moore pack, and some other answer. The Moores was the correct one and he even gave a geographic location to them in comparison to the Shaw and Keaton packs. We dead ass could have a whole nother set of characters from a whole different pack if he didn't give them the Frederick and Bright Eyes treatment and just ignored their whole existence .
That's all the brain dump I have for now. Sorry if I fried yours in the process, but I've been thinking about the Moore (or More) pack FOR YEARS.
(Also, Monarch Baz got pissy with David for not understanding vamp politics, AND it's confirmed that some vamps are involved with the inversion and close-knit case, which is more support for my reasoning and theory that we might be headed towards a vamp arc soon). If you guys like me dumping info and theories like this, PLEASE let me know. If not, I'll definitely keep my posts shorter in the future. Thank you for reading!!! 💜 Stay safe, drink water, and drive safe!
In the mean time, Dimitri from the movie Anastasia is my head canon for Dimitri Rebane.
I know some people agree that Milo and Sweetheart are the token 'Morticia & Gomez Adams' couple vibes, but Porter and Treasure are the embodiment of that couple.
Treasure didn't even budge when Porter revealed himself as a vampire. Both are freaky AF. Also, "I would do anything for you" says Porter in his HBS video.
Yeah. They're DEFINITELY the actual Adams couple.
I imagine the opposite ☹️ Treasure being more than willing to become a vampire, but Porter being hesitant because he knows it's dangerous. Turning isn't an easy decision to make, it's a very traumatic one. What if Treasure is attacked and is turned that way?
I have no doubt these two will end up together, but just judging on how hesitant Porter has been because he's aware there's a power imbalance, compared to Treasure who is eager to do anything.
realized i haven’t talked about porter in a while (i was gone) but i do have a tiny feeling that porter and treasure are going to be complete opposites IF it comes to treasure being turned. I think porter would see it as a thing that needed to be done if he could finally admit he loves them because since treasure’s the first person to love him in years, he doesn’t want them to simply cease to exist when they die. while vincent was preparing to lose Lovely, Porter refuses to lose Treasure ever because he’s finally found someone who wants him like he does.
-🎭
Imagine that the parallel isn’t just Porter wanting Treasure to become a vampire, but also Treasure not wanting to be one, IMAGINE THE SADNESS Treasure on their deathbed and still wanting to be human and Porter doesn’t want to lose them AUGHHHHHHH IM LOVING THIS STORYLINE😭😭😭
I keep thinking of a story where Porter takes Treasure to a really fancy restaurant, and Milo ends up taking Sweetheart there to celebrate an anniversary, promotion, something.
Milo looks over and just happens to see Porter and Treasure walking in while Sweetheart is just wide-eyed and jaw-slacked. Why? Because they actually see Porter not being a dick for once lol.
I need y’all fanfic writers to start writing more Porter fanfiction and if you can throw some Milo in there
Just thinking about Jealous Porter ☺️
Imagine Vincent and Treasure being on mutual terms later in their relationship with Porter.
Treasure has Vincent's phone number, "just in case" he says. Ya never know what type of emergencies can come up when an unemowered human is new to a sketchy vampire clan *cough* *cough* looks at Lovely. And on top of that, having your lover who is a hitman for a morally grey King.
After a long night of..... fun, Treasure is in a deep peaceful sleep when their phone screen turns on, signaling a text notification. Porter, assuming it's their toxic friends, picks it up to see what they could possibly want from them at the dead of night and to send a quick but assertive response, telling them to fuck of.
But oh, what's this?
Vincent!?
Why does Treasure have Vincent's phone number? Why does Vincent have his Treasure's number?? Why is that spoiled prince bothering them while they sleep? Especially after all the "fun" they had?! He knows Treasure would NEVER cheat-they just aren't the type. They've stuck around their shitty friends for long enough. Treasure is loyal. And Vincent would NEVER be the type to homewreck or step out on Lovely.
But still, Porter is jealous 🤗
This is very much giving Porter and Treasure vibes.

Also, whoever started the head canon that Porter is Pakistani-British, then said that they won't stop until everyone accepts it---congratulations. Everytime I think of that man, that's exactly what he looks like to me. And I love it.
I need somebody to do a character analysis on all the listeners. I need it so desperately.
