Drake walked into the throne room where his cousin sat, draped over the throne looking sickly.
"When was the last time you had any blood Emily?" He asked.
"When did we run out of the blood packs?" Emily responded.
"A year ago. Have you really gone a year without any blood? Why haven't you said anything?" He scolded.
"I didn't feel like it. don't worry about it." She waved him off.
"I'm already worrying about it, what are you trying to do? You can't stay hung up on this, you have a land to run. Things can't keep going like this."
She sighed, knowing he was right.

James walked through the market behind grace who was happily hopping around from stand to stand with a basket collecting food for dinner tonight.
"Grace please slow down" he said stopping her from running any further away from him
"Oh come on james dont be such a party pooper, here you take the basket I'm going to to look at the fruit" he sighed taking the basket as she hopped off to the other end of the market with a smile

Drake went out after a brief argument about her health and went to try and find someone who would be fitting. He didn't want to resort to kidnapping, but he would if they found someone perfect and they were stubborn. He started in the nearest village. Despite the unstable ways of the land, the people generally prospered so other than staying away from the castle they didn't think much of it.
He smelled two, one that attracted his own affinity as well as Emily's.

Grace was arguing with one of the men who had knocked down an older lady and he James was gently helping her up and grabbing her things
"Apologize" she said poking him roughly in the chest
"Make me sweetheart" the guys said staring her down
She gave him a hardest stare a determined smile before kicking him in the crotch
"Ah grace, your attracting attention" he said looking around nervously as the man fell over on the ground in pain, grace had her foot on the mans chest as she looked up at gave a sweet smile
"Sorry everyone, just teaching the bully to appologize "

"A good lesson to teach." Drake remarked, flashing a dazzling smile, having seen and was prepared to step in, but was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't necessary. He was easily the most recognizable figure, at least among humans and vampires younger than he was with how little appearances the queen made in the past few decades.

Grace looked at him awestruck for a moment as she let go of the mans arm allowing him to scramble away from her yelling something about her being a crazy bitch as he ran off.
"Yeah obviously" she said regaining her composure as she took the basket from James who just stood there
"Come on james let's go" she said turning to leave
"Oh alright uhm sorry " he said giving the older women her things with a smile "gotta go now, you'll be alright going home?"
She smiled " yes dear thank you"

"If you two have time, I would like to discuss a matter of importance with you when you are free." Drake said, moving to catch up with them once again.

"Busy" she said walking a little quicker ahead of them, obviously trying to avoid looking at him anymore then she had to to avoid gawking
James looked at him nervously "I'm sorry shes having a bad day"

"Then may I at least talk to you? Like I said this is important." He asked James, becoming a bit frustrated in his desperation.

James sighed and grabbed ahold of grace pulling her to a halt "James we dont have time for this" she mumbled not looking up from the ground
He shook his head looking at Drake "what is it you need? I'm unsure what we possibly could help someone like you with"

"It is more you that might be able to help." He sighed. "The queen is sick and hasn't fed in a long time, you match her affinity perfectly. I swear she won't hurt you, I'm just hoping that someone matching her affinity can coax her to feed some."

James looked concerned, as usual he always worried about other "shes sick? Oh uhm...I suppose I could try but I'm not sure I would be of much help I'm not very pushy if she says no"
Grace looked over "james you cant be serious you know what I told you last time I dealt with one of them and that..." she trailed off staring back away from the two remembering her parents being killed over a hungry vampires want for her mother

"You may not have to say anything but she rejects any blood I go get for her. I'm hoping if she actually smells someone matching her affinity there it'll help give her a push. Please at least consider it, I haven't come across anyone who fits so well."

"I'll do it" he said and grace looked back at him
"You cant be serious"
"I am grace, shes hurting I cant let someone suffer like that"
She sighed putting a hand on her hip "then im coming to I am not leaving you alone" she was still curious as to why he was talking to both of them originally though when he only needed james. And still refused to look at him again afraid to get caught up in his good looks more then she had when he had first shown up "and besides were a package deal even if you have no need for me he is not going anywhere unless I'm there too"

"Whatever makes you comfortable." He shrugged.
"Feel free to finish your business for the day and come to the castle anytime today or the next few days you are free. I will meet you at the gate."
