Forbidden love.

Have you ever thought of forbidden love? And what does it really mean?

Not of the Romeo and Juliet type, but rather... maybe vampire and mortal (you should've seen this coming)... a prince and a mermaid, or perhaps even someone from the past with someone from the future? Or even an Angel and a human? Or even a Devil and an Angel?

I think the term is rather suitable especially for a vampire and mortal?
Because honestly, two person who are forbidden to love each other due to different background (perhaps an Angel and a human?), or different species (a Prince and mermaid?) or even... i don't know... is just... ok only... but... vampire and mortal are still most interesting of them all, don't you think?

Nothing is exactly preventing those two to be together... but the ultimate questions remains:
Do you love him enough to let him take your life? Does he love you enough to give you your life, even though his first instinct is after all... to take yours?


Oh yes, i have no doubts that this entry is inspired by Twilight. But i am, after all, a big fan of fantasy stories. Anything to keep my imagination running. Maybe that's why i never grow up, or rather, i never wanted to.

Anyways...
My "first" vampire novel back in form 2 or 3, it didn't really give me any thoughts, then come the Twins Effect, and the Undead series...
My mind is always working, albeit the wrong way, but it's still running. I think.
Sometimes when my thoughts caught me in the weirdest most random way, it got me thinking about the forbidden love between a vampire and a human, even before Twilight... though i never dwell much on that thought till now.

Reading Twilight gives me an answer to it, that it is possible. But of course, it depends on how your vampire works. There has been so many vampire novels around, each with its own different way of living or co-existing with humans. Twilight's is the first novel i came across with vampires who actually need to survive by killing, though the Cullen's have a "vegetarian diet".


But ultimately, what does it really mean?

A love which is forbidden, or two person who aren't just meant to fall in love, fell for each other? Or any other way you see it?
