Vampires Of The Eight

Two thousand years ago, a stranger infected eight pregnant women that caused eight different blood types of vampires to be born. As a result, not all vampires can drink blood from any human. O negative vampires can only take blood from O negative humans, while AB positives can drink blood from any human. Every hundred years, the stranger returns and infects eight more women on the same day, at the same time. Our protagonist, CLAYTON COLE, is a powerful and fierce AB-positive vampire from the illustrious Cole tribe. When we meet him, he is a thirteen-year-old boy in 1020 AD, on the day of his initiation ceremony where he will be turned from half-vampire to full-on bloodsucker. We then follow Clayton through the ages, as he grows and becomes the leader of the council of his tribe. At this point, Clayton does his best to convince his family, and the rest of the council, that they would be better off leaving England for the New World due to King Goerge raising taxes and stealing their land. Once this proposal is shot down, Clayton decides the best alternative would be to form a pact with the other vampire factions in an effort to take down King George in a last-stand battle. In the intense and pivotal battle scene that follows, a surprise twist reveals that MARYL ROSSER, the leader of the O Negative blood types, has double-crossed Clayton in an effort to seize power from the ABs. He kills Clayton’s entire family and leaves him with nothing. As we move forward to the present day, three hundred years later, we learn of some strange occurrences that are taking place. For one, the “Stranger” that was supposed to appear that May to infect eight new women, has mysteriously not shown. Additionally, we learn of a serum that has the power to change blood type, thus giving all the vampires the ability to drink from any human. This serum has just gone missing and the scientist that created it has wound up dead. Clayton meets with the leaders of all the clans, including Maryl whom he still secretly vows revenge on, in an effort to get them to join together to find this missing serum and to uncover the truth of the Stranger who didn’t show last May. After the clan leaders refuse to join Clayton, he is forced to go it alone. What he discovers is that Maryl is still up to her old tricks and she was the one responsible for both the missing serum and the Stranger. Once again, Maryl has devised a malevolent plot to kill her own kind, only this time, she means to destroy all of the other vampire types, leaving her O Negative clan to reign supreme over the entire world.
