Personality Traits of the Comic Book Character: Gabriel

 


Gabriel is a tortured soul, a lonely and angry child in an adult body. He can best be described as a vicious, unfeeling psychopath, but in reality he just wants to kill the pain and get rid of the “voices”—or prayers that he hears— that torture him nonstop. So he simply kills not for fun, but with purpose, although his anger and desire for revenge also causes him to “play” or “toy with” his victims cruelly before killing them. He is not to be underestimated. He approaches serial killing like an overachieving workaholic devoid of mercy. He has lost much of the power of speech and has become more of a mindless, wordless killing machine,  saying very little if any in very few words, seemingly incapable of any feelings, or the concept of right and wrong. He grew up with nothing but pain and suffering and violence and death. And that is all he has ever known.

Despite his animal-like mindset, Gabriel is ambitious, determined, smart,  and practical and determined to do one thing and do it well—serial killing.

It’s revenge and the aching pain of loneliness that drives him. When the “voices” come, it literally drives him insane and activates his impulse to kill. He hates his existence and his “job, and he hates being “chained” to his role. He does everything he can to rebel, and sees becoming a Vampire as a way out, so God cannot control him anymore since he has become evil, but it does not silence the prayers. Ironically, he does need the prayers to home in on his "food"--humans.

But he is in a way redeemable in that he has some remnant of feelings, and seems to have a soft spot for the author Ms Price, who he has seen in Jeromos’s monastery.  And he is drawn to her because he secretly wants stability and devotion he never had and never had a chance to experience  companionship. But it’s not love—it’s more about having something  that can “soothe” the anger inside him. He knows he needs her in a more practical manner though—to regenerate and heal, because he knows she has that power. But he takes some time to act on planning to take her, since some part of him is loyal to Jeromos for saving his life. So he does retain somewhat of a conscience.

But he is selfish too—he’s mainly concerned about his own future and security that is why he is a loner and creates his own marble army, which must be made of supernaturally-charged inanimate objects--statues--, and cannot be made up of Vampire Guardian Angels or humans because he does not trust them and he cannot relate to them. He’s something like a socially awkward, aloof serial killer, distant and not easily approachable or easy to reason with. He can play a great actor though, as he seduces only to kill and eat, with little words and a charming personality that humans can see as he hypnotizes them with his gaze. But that is the extent of his interactions. And he does not bother with any type of interaction with humans, vampires or angels. He is singularly focused on one thing: he will do anything to reach his goal of killing Joseph and Cameron, anyone who gets in his way, and getting rid of the praying voices in his head and the people who pray. He is completely obsessed with his goals.

And in the war between the Vampire Guardian Angels, surprisingly, despite being the most powerful of them all, he has absolutely no desire for power, no desire to be king, and just wants to be left alone. He just wants relief from all the pain and prayers, and will find any way to soothe himself and find relief from them, whether it's killing or anything else, which is also why he wants the author, that makes him feel better, even for a few moments.

He is remarkably resilient despite all the injuries he has sustained. He will weather any bad times just like he did as a child in his past life, and any setbacks with patience and perseverance. He takes risks such as coming down from Heaven without the portal because he is willing to risk it all to get his revenge. But there are times when does play it safe though—he plans, observes and evaluates what the cost of his action is, and if he can come out of it in one piece.

What is wrong with these Guardian Angels?

Everything. And not in a good way.

This is a comic book that questions the role of Guardian Angels, and turns them into something no one expects, and into something evil. The concept of Guardian Angels as evil vampires pushes the envelope in a “what if” situation.

The comic books force us to face the unthinkable. We always expect Guardian Angels to save, help and protect us. What we don’t expect is for them to commit acts like murder, violence, and other unexpected things. But in this comic book, they do.

The lesson here is that we do not know what Guardian Angels really are, and if they are even real. Pop culture insists they are, and this is where fiction and imagination comes in—to turn these “myths” into something else entirely. We as humans always rely on a higher power to save us, materialize and solve our problems. We put too much faith and reliance on the Supernatural. The problem is, we don’t know what entities we are summoning or praying to. It could be something dangerous, something that kills instead of helps us.

And my Guardian Angels are all sorts of wrong. They are complete psychopaths, sociopaths, rebels against their supposed assigned roles, and now, they are Vampires. And when you pray to one, they get angry. They get annoyed at our constant begging and whining to them. Now, they would rather put us out of our misery rather than help us, so now they can eat us as well as shut us up for good.

Dare to meet them?

Personality Traits of the Comic Book Character: Author Ms Price

 


Personality Traits of the Comic Book Character: Author Ms Price

The author Ms Price is an intellectual. She is a Type-A personality whose main focus is on work. Though she is not an introvert (She is lively and extroverted), she has somewhat limited herself socially due to her self-imposed seclusion in order to concentrate on her research. She spends her days and night writing, researching and freelancing, and much of her contact is with other researchers or clients, or when she goes to universities and other events to give speeches about her work (she only reluctantly starts going out more and is prodded to "enjoy life and take a break from work" by Detective Costa, who starts dating her). She impresses her audience and is enthusiastic about her work, and is determined to prove the existence of the Vampire Guardian Angels. She is not spiritual, and she is not afraid to challenge and speak her mind, and she always means what she says, even if her comments can be harsh. She does not want to disrespect others' beliefs, but she also does not believe people should rely on a higher power to help them, and that those "higher powers" could be evil. She is an atheist. She’s adamant that humans should cease relying on angels for a solution to their problems that humans created themselves and are responsive for. She believes that  humans summoning unseen beings to help them out of their miseries causes trouble, and that the belief that Angels were created to help humans was a dangerous myth. And when the Angels do come to life and start harming humans, she’s later blamed for their existence. But she also has a strong sense of right and wrong no matter what those higher powers are, and she knows that what the Vampire Guardian Angels are doing is wrong, and they must be stopped, and she does feel a strong sense of guilt for having accidentally brought them to life. And she is not afraid to face them. She is willing to search for them alone in the darkest churches or the creepiest cemeteries, to prove they are real.

However, this is what drives Detective Costa crazy as he tries to protect her and look out for her. He feels that she is taking unnecessary risks. She can be impatient and restless when it comes to trying to solve the problem of the Vampire Guardian Angels. She's also over-confident, sometimes to the degree of being arrogant, This leads to clashes between her and Costa. She is high-spirited, values her own "freedom", and Costa’s constant over-protectiveness and restrictions of any sort - such as having her followed by his cop friends and bringing her back home even in the middle of an event if he feels things get too dangerous,  irritates and frustrates her. For some reason, she believes that the Vampire Guardian Angels will not harm her. And she demands her space from the overbearing Costa. She does feel some degree of regret when she is kidnapped by Prince Jeromos for not being more careful and for not listening to Costa, but she does see her situation as an opportunity to somehow stop the Angels since she is on the midst of them now. Instead of full regret, she felt that the "sacrifice—meaning herself--was necessary to hopefully infiltrate them and find out more about them and their plans. But she is also at risk of sympathizing with her captors, because the angels talk endlessly about their own emotional and psychological abuse and servitude under humans, so there is a risk of the author falling under "Stockholm Syndrome".

What are Vials of Blood and Gold?

The "Healing Potion",  called "Vials of Blood and Gold", were kept in plain glass reliquaries hanging from a leather cord. The formula consisted of the bones and body parts of "supposed incorruptible bodies -- bodies that resisted decay and were worshipped as saints" whose bodies did not decompose, and who were secretly Vampires because they did not age, and were in reality, sleeping. They were, like the original Vampire Guardian Angels, hidden and preserved by the Church and their armies. Some of them were even hidden in plain sight, in glass coffins in plain view of their gullible human worshippers.

In order for the potion to work, it had to be mixed with Vampire blood, and not just any vampire--they had to be ancient "holy ones", since Vampire Guardian Angels were of celestial origins, the still-flowing blood of the incorruptibles, and gold, because of its magical alchemy properties and also because ancient holy relics were kept in gold and became a supernatural preserving agent. What humans did not know was that even the supposed “holy humans” had been bitten by the original Vampire Guardian Angels, and when they "died” or were injured, they were put into a deep sleep, and parts of their bodies were remodeled with wax to make them appear lifelike.

The "blood" was taken from these special "holy relics" and ancient vampires and mixed with liquified or soft flaked gold to form the valuable potion that heals injured Vampire Guardian Angels. This potion was discovered by Prince Jeromos when he was tasked by King Janos to find a cure for the Vampire Guardian Angels affected by the plague, after a gold container filled with vampire blood in which he placed a body part --a finger-- for preservation began to regenerate and move. Later, after Jeromos kidnaps the Author, the vials are mixed with some of Ms. Price's own immortal vampire blood, making the potion even more powerful since she is the "creator" and her blood has full healing and  regenerative properties.

Vampire Guardian Angels: Apocalypse, Issue 7


Lia Scott Price's 
 Vampire Guardian AngelsTM 
 Apocalypse (Issue 7)

 Copyright Lia Scott Price

“Apocalypse”  focuses on the coming brutal bloody war for power between the Vampire Guardian Angels, humans, and earth vampires, and why they are specifically after the author, Ms. Price, as they fight among themselves and build their armies. Whoever possesses the “Creator and Healer” - who happens to be Ms. Price - the “most powerful of all relics”, and is of royal blood or marries into royal blood, will become full ruler of all, with Ms. Price as his Queen. It's army vs army, with humans and vampires either bred or eaten, and the author caught in between.

Back in Issue 6, Joseph had invaded Prince Jeromos’s monastery. After imprisoning both Cameron and Gabriel, he spares Detective Costa, who has turned into a Vampire Guardian Angel, but goes after Prince Jeromos, only to find that Jeromos has a piece of Cameron’s sword that he obtained when he and Cameron fought and when Cameron’s sword shattered and a piece fell off (The sword was later retrieved by Costa and obtained by Joseph when he imprisoned him in the crystal coffin along with Gabriel). Jeromos also has Cameron’s blood infused into his own sword, which gives him the power to kill Vampire Guardian Angels since Cameron is considered still the “good” angel. Though Joseph had Cameron’s sword and tried to fight Jeromos, he still was not skilled in using the sword and is disarmed by Jeromos. The sword flies out of his hand and off into a corner of the hallway. Backing off, Joseph tries to use his power of light on Jeromos but he shields himself with Cameron’s sword, deflecting the light. Joseph yells at Jeromos that he will bring down Janos’s army from Heaven and will make them follow him and take over Janos’s reign by taking Janos hostage. Jeromos tells Joseph that it’s too late, Janos is already his prisoner. Joseph realizes Jeromos is too strong for him and Joseph is still an inexperienced fighter, so he retreats and disappears, vowing he will be back with a vengeance.

While Joseph is distracted, Costa, still weak from his transformation, continued to try to find Ms. Price. Cameron finds Costa, and tells him they must leave and come back with reinforcements since they both cannot fight Jeromos, Joseph and Gabriel by themselves.  He also tells Costa he knows Joseph has grown more evil and powerful and that he and Gabriel were imprisoned by him, but freed for some reason by a white marble guardian angel statue. Cameron came upon Jeromos and Joseph, found his sword,  and escaped while they were fighting. He also tells Costa that he is now a good Vampire Guardian Angel, and that he has become the first human to become a Vampire Guardian Angel instantly without dying and going to Heaven, where the transformation takes place. To become a Vampire Guardian Angel, a human or an Earth Vampire has to die, ascend to Heaven, be resurrected and bitten by a Vampire Guardian Angel, and then descend to Earth through a portal. Costa has skipped this process because of his physical relations with the author - they have become one in “body and blood” through intercourse, he was bitten by the Angelorumrabidi, and he drank the potion immediately, so with that rare combination, he was instantly “created”. The only other way a human or an Earth Vampire can become a Vampire Guardian Angel is to forcefully “take” the author and have physical relations with her, be bitten by a Vampire Guardian Angel, and drink the potion. Ms. Price could instantly create a Vampire Guardian Angel with her own body. He tells Costa why Jeromos wants Ms. Price, because she can heal him.  And in order for a Vampire Guardian Angel to become (almost) invincible, they will have to  have physical relations with her and mingle their blood with hers through a blood pact. Costa is angry that Cameron implies that Jeromos forced himself on Ms. Price, and insists on finding her and killing Jeromos. But Cameron warns him that Jeromos now can’t be killed because it would kill Ms. Price too. If one kills the creator, Costa and any of the Angels who have made a blood pact with her die as well. But as long as she’s alive, nothing can kill them as they can instantly heal or be healed by her. Even if she dies, only the angels who had created a blood pact with her will die, and the rest, thousands, will still continue on living and killing. But evil Vampire Guardian Angels can still be killed by an angel who has turned back to good, or is a good angel to begin with, of which there is only one left (vs. thousands). However, Jeromos can’t kill Costa either because he and Ms. Price are now one in “body and blood” due to his previous relations with her. Cameron forcibly makes Costa leave with him. Costa asks why Cameron left his son behind, and Cameron replies that he will deal with him later.

After chasing Joseph away, Jeromos is informed by a soldier that Ms. Price has escaped her crystal coffin. Forgetting to pick up Cameron’s sword, Jeromos searches for her. Ms. Price, looking to escape, comes across the feeding and breeding room, where a Vampire Guardian Angel tries to attack her but is killed by Jeromos. Jeromos takes Ms. Price to a dungeon deep below the monastery, and into an enormous crypt. He shows her a Vampire Guardian Angel in a crystal coffin, unconscious.  It’s King Janos, who has finally descended from Heaven through Prince Jeromos, who has sacrificed much of his own army of Vampire Guardian Angels using the virus, to create a portal large enough to bring Janos down along with a replacement army. However, Janos is secretly taken prisoner by Jeromos, who plans to rule through him. Jeromos takes control of the virus and successfully convinces his Church/Vatican vampire army and his and Janos’s  Vampire Guardian Angel followers that Janos was gravely injured during the descent, and pretends to heal him while keeping him in an indefinite coma.  Jeromos’s reputation as a healer and the fact that he is Janos’s right-hand man, often making decisions on behalf of the King (as well as being Janos’s chosen heir), makes the Vampire Guardian Angels believe Jeromos and they do not question his authority. They pledge to him their full allegiance. Janos’s weakness and reliance on Jeromos proved to be his undoing. Now that he has the author, the King, Cameron and Gabriel, Jeromos feels that nothing can stand in his way. He will proclaim himself King. And then,  all he needs is an heir.

Jeromos takes Ms Price to a bed surrounded by his followers, where he has declared a public consummation of their union. He forces himself on her to seal his position as King. As he does, he reveals to her that she has royal blood, and to be married to a royal gives him unquestionable power. His relationship with her is one of pure lust and control - she knows she is a figurehead and a trophy for him, given her status as their “creator”,  her healing powers, and her own royal blood.  Whoever possesses the author and a royal title, or by marrying a royal and making a blood pact with her, will give an angel full control of any Vampire Guardian Angel army. Jeromos also knows that she refuses to bear him an heir as she can control her own body with her powers, but he says he is patient and she will, in time, do what he wants.  After the ceremony, he presents Ms. Price to his followers as “Queen of the Vampire Guardian Angels”. He then sends his army out to destroy whole cities and to capture humans to bring them back to the monastery to breed and to slaughter for food.

Jeromos goes to check on his new prisoners Gabriel and Cameron, and to his shock, finds their glass coffins shattered and empty. He gets a glimpse of an Angelorum Marmore, a marble guardian angel statue, escaping. Suddenly remembering Cameron’s sword, he goes back to the hallway and finds it missing as well.

The Angelorum Marmore flies back to an abandoned white marble Basilica in Poland with stolen vials of the potion.  It hands the vials to a waiting figure - Gabriel. Gabriel scolds the angel for freeing Cameron but forgives it, saying he needs the angel for more important things. It turns out that Gabriel had been building his own secret army of marble guardian angel statues behind Jeromos’s back. He would send them to a hideout he maintained in a secret location. He used angel statues since he did not trust anyone else living - humans or vampire, and his private army is more for protection- he does not have any desire to rule and does not want power, and part of him does feel that he owes some degree of loyalty to Jeromos for saving his life, so he refuses to take part in the coming “Apocalypse” or war between the Vampire Guardian Angels. In his refuge,  Gabriel continues to build his army, mainly to use them as his “bodyguards” and to bring him humans for food and more vials of the potion from Jeromos's laboratory. Gabriel also happens to be the most powerful and dangerous of all the Vampire Guardian Angels and  since he was the one who turned the angels in Heaven into Vampires, he is also a “creator”. His only goal is to continue on as a serial killer, to stop the voices, the prayers of humans, that continue to torment him.  He realizes that the one thing that can relieve him of his pain and torment happens to be Ms. Price.

After bringing Costa back to Los Angeles,  Cameron points him in the direction of his old police station, saying that his colleagues have barricaded themselves and are hiding out throughout the now apocalyptic landscape of the city, where Vampire Guardian Angels are slaughtering both humans and vampires. Cameron tells Costa that he has decided to leave his son Joseph to his own fate before disappearing again. Costa  argues with Cameron, saying that Cameron is abandoning them and reminding him that he has to help him rescue Ms. Price, but Cameron ignores him and leaves, saying he has decided that he is no longer good, and that Costa will now take his place as protector of humans. But this time Cameron  has now radically changed, for the worse. He's become resentful and sees turning evil as an easier way, and that power is better than " painful and unrewarding sacrifice for ungrateful humans and his own stepson". Cameron no longer regrets killing Christina. He now sees her as weak and whiny, annoyed that her attention was always on Joseph. But his sword can still kill Vampire Guardian Angels since it still has his blood when he was “good”. Cameron finds that he too, wants the author, after discovering her healing powers and what it would mean to possess her, having learned who she is and what she can do, and knowing he will need her to heal him. He also sees her as someone “worthier”. Cameron had a plan all along. He took Costa away from Jeromos’s monastery because he knew Jeromos could not kill him and he didn't want Costa to save Ms. Price. If he brought Costa back to Los Angeles, he knew Costa would be too occupied with saving humans to go back for Ms. Price, and Cameron would have a chance to take the Queen for himself. Realizing he must end up betraying Costa, and tired of constantly feeling defeated through all of his experiences up to his imprisonment by his own stepson, he has given in to wanting power and, like Gabriel, has become tired of defending humans. Cameron has also been greatly affected by Joseph's hatred of him, so he gives up on being a stepfather to him. Like Gabriel, he has decided that instead of helping anyone, he has become resentful, angry, violent, dangerous and vengeful, and feels that he owes it to himself to make himself feel good and do things for his benefit alone. So there are no “good” guardian angels left, other than Costa. Cameron goes off to form a rebel army of Vampire Guardian Angels who fear him more than Jeromos and who are willing to follow him in exchange for being spared the wrath of the “Angel Killer”. He promises that he will take over Jeromos’s rule, control the potion and the virus, and take the Queen.

Joseph, having found refuge in an abandoned warehouse and frustrated that he has lost Cameron’s sword, plots his continued ambition of revenge against Cameron, Gabriel, and Jeromos.  He is still furious at Cameron for killing his mother, and for Cameron’s previous absence while he was growing up - Cameron was too busy saving humans. It was Detective Kirkland, Cameron's old police partner,  who basically raised him in Christina’s place. But when Joseph was old enough to make it on his own, Kirkland was committed in a psych ward, and later saved Joseph from an attack by Gabriel, and died in the process. Joseph lost his second father figure. But Joseph too, is creating an army— a ghost army of Vampire Guardian Angel souls or balls of light—trapped angel souls—that failed to ascend and who were trapped in the astral plane between good and evil and were prevented from ascending, and these souls are now bound to him. He also plans to kidnap the author to hold her ransom in exchange for Cameron and Jeromos, as he knows that their own armies will turn on them once he has their symbol of power, the author, captive, and they will do what he tells them to. But he has no desire for any physical relations with her, because he is still traumatized by the death of his mother Christina, and sees her in every female he encounters, and he believes that every female he is with is cursed, such as the death of Catharina when she saved him from Gabriel. He only needs the creator to bring his army to life, and then he will hold her hostage. Whoever in his army kills Cameron will have her as a reward.

Back in Los Angeles, the Earth vampires and humans, after discovering the author’s research and after finally believing her writings, have also discovered the supernatural power behind them and of her family history as part of the Inquisition and her blood relation to the Spanish royal family and to the original secret Church police, of which she was unaware of,  are now after her to either ransom her to stop Jeromos, or destroy her, thinking that if they did, they also destroy the angels since she is their “creator”. But they don’t realize that she is self-healing and immortal and not evil, so not even the angels can kill her. They know she’s still being held by Jeromos as his Queen. And he will do anything to protect her. Costa finds them, and they at first try to attack him, but old friends of Catharina, his old vampire informant, recognize him.  They also realize he is one of the only good angels left and that he can help them, since Costa tells them Cameron had abandoned them all. Costa warns them that if they kill the author or Jeromos, he dies too. Reluctantly, they agree to try to come up with another plan to stop the angels. Costa eventually forms an earth vampire and human unit of his own, made up of former and current police colleagues and military soldiers, to protect the humans and Earth Vampires and attempt to rescue the author and destroy the other Vampire Guardian Angels. Surprisingly, Costa finds another ally: the Angelorum Marmore who freed Cameron had defected from Gabriel’s army, having feared punishment by Gabriel,  and joined Costa as his spy. Costa just wants his girlfriend back safe with him, and he realizes that if any there angels take her physically, they cannot be killed or she will die as well if they die. So even as a “good angel”, he can’t kill Jeromos.  Costa  realizes his army is too small and he is kept busy defending the city from the Vampire Guardian Angels who are slaughtering anyone who prays to them. Costa also has to deal with the Church who, despite the warnings not to pray, keeps sending out preachers to convince humans to pray even more and to convert non-believers. Costa is unaware that the Church is doing this on purpose since they are working for the now King Jeromos. He is kept busy trying to defend the city's inhabitants against the Vampire Guardian Angels.

Gabriel secretly returns to the monastery and breaks in and kidnaps Ms. Price, as his Angelorum Marmore army successfully holds back Jeromos and his guards. Noticing the scar in Ms. Price’s arm as a sign of the blood pact, he realizes he cannot kill Jeromos, only hold him back. So Gabriel’s army retreats. Gabriel takes the author back to his Basilica and forces himself on her and performs the blood pact and consummates the union before his angel army and a kidnapped priest who marries them and is slaughtered after. The blood pact makes him invincible as well. However, during her captivity, the author sees a vulnerable side to Gabriel  when he talks about his past and he softens when she comforts him, and he falls for her. He pledges his life to her, furthering the strength of the blood pact. However, he cannot stop himself from answering the prayers of desperate humans and continues to slaughter them for food and to “quiet the voices,” as he is still tortured by the "prayers" of human and still seeks to "shut them up for good." But he does try to keep this hidden from Ms. Price, who he keeps as oblivious as possible to his activities  in the Basilica, and who he treats gently and tenderly, in contrast to his brutality of the humans and in contrast to Jeromos’s treatment of the Queen. The Queen soon becomes torn and struggles with her view of faith and reliance on a higher power. She wants people to stop praying because of what angels like Gabriel do to them, but she also begin to sympathize with how humans treated angels as their own slaves as well, and she could see why Gabriel wanted revenge. God made angels suffer to serve humans and forced them to become their protectors and therapists, so she could see why they rebelled and were out for revenge.  She starts to question her role: does she do all she can to save humans when she knows they will continue to hopelessly rely on a higher power and may enslave the angels again, does she try to convince the angels to turn back to good, or does she try to save herself?

Cameron launches a surprise attack on the Basilica and a section of it collapses, burying Gabriel, knocking him out. Cameron watches as the author collapses unconscious as well, and realizes that Gabriel too, has made a blood pact with her. Cameron is enraged that he cannot kill his long-time rival without harming the author, so all he can do is take her and leave as the Angelorum Marmore rush to defend Gabriel. Cameron too, forces himself on Ms. Price and completes the blood pact. Cameron realizes through his psychic powers that Ms. Price and his bitter enemy, Gabriel, have fallen for each other, but he dismisses it as Gabriel having mind control over Ms. Price and manipulating her feelings. Cameron is much more terrifying and more brutal than Jeromos as he too, slaughters human and vampire captives, not for food, but for revenge. And his lust for the author is driven by his intense jealousy that she had been with Gabriel. He tells her that Costa is now a Vampire Guardian Angel but has abandoned her to save the humans back in Los Angeles. The Queen does not believe Cameron and is secretly relieved that Costa is alive and can’t be killed by Cameron, but knows that if she sacrifices herself to destroy Jeromos and Cameron, she risks killing Costa, and Gabriel, who she has developed feelings for.

Costa hears that the author is now Cameron's captive and has performed the blood pact. Costa is enraged that Cameron, now his former friend, would betray him by taking the woman he loved. He is even more enraged when he finds out that Gabriel had taken her as well. Costa vows that he  will do whatever it takes to get her back. He is also frustrated in the fact that his girlfriend is now, in effect, “married” to 3 other Angels and is their “Queen”, although the only legitimate claimant to having her as an anointed queen is Jeromos. But Cameron has proclaimed himself King as well, although the only royal who can “legitimize” him is in fact either Prince Jeromos or King Janos, so he will still have trouble trying to get all the angels to fully follow him. Costa now has to compete with Gabriel and Jeromos to get the author back from Cameron. Although Costa has no desire to become King, he realizes that he would have find a way to lead the Vampire Guardian Angels, which would make it easier to stop their takeover. But he also has to make a choice: protect the Queen from the other angels, or sacrifice her and himself and save humans.
