About two weeks ago, I received news that Young Master Aldus requested an item to be forged with the Mezzanotte family crest, I had a feeling that something is not right.

I am something like a recordkeeper for the Mezzanotte family. They are the royalty of the vampire society and their crest grants a lot of power; we strictly monitor how many of them are out there and who has them. Of course, they are limited to family members and a handful of trustful aides (like yours truly).

I needed more information on why Young Master was creating another item with a crest and I contacted him. I was left speechless when the Young Master told me that it's for his daughter.

"Young Master, I didn't know that you are married."

"I'm not.", he responded curtly. "Do I need to get married in order to have a daughter?"

My brain exploded. It's a child out of wedlock!
