She studied me in silence. “Will you limit how many vampires I kill?” she asked, her words sending a shiver down my spine, given her unassuming frame.

I shook my head. “As long as they are not my vampires, you may kill as many as you want.”

“You speak of those sharing the underground with us?” Eve asked, discreetly eyeing Adam with a deep, passionate interest, as if suddenly entertaining a long-dismissed hope.

I kept this observation to myself, nodding at her question. “I personally interviewed them, carefully selecting only those whom I believed I could trust. Mostly old war veterans that the world left behind. Anyone with addictions or temperamental issues, I left as I found them. After hundreds of years, I’ve learned what type of person makes a good vampire and what type of person makes a terrible monster. Dracula is mine. The rest are fair game.”

Eve nodded. “Then I can agree. I will buy back my soul in blood. This is a worthy cause.”

“We will make our new garden thrive, growing rich off the blood of monsters,” Adam said.

I nodded gratefully, trying not to show my level of excitement. I checked my blood reserves, happy to see they were still pregnant from feeding on Natalie earlier. I would have preferred to top it off with Victoria Helsing’s powerful blood, just to be safe, but I knew I would need that for tonight, and I hadn’t wanted to risk drinking from her twice in a row.

Turning a human into a vampire was relatively easy—not even requiring much power.

But I was playing an entirely different game here. I wasn’t even sure if it was possible. It wasn’t like I had a father to ask or anything. I was the first vampire, and no one had been crazy enough to try turning a Nephilim—or even crazy enough to try convincing a Nephilim to be turned.

As a precaution, I pulled out my phone and checked the clock. I was pleased to see that I still had plenty of time to wrap this up and make it back to the museum. That was surprising given all that had transpired: the retelling of my story and the subsequent negotiations. My only concern was if something went wrong and all three of us passed out from the attempt.

I called Renfield’s phone—he had already saved it in the contacts, thankfully.

“Yes, Master Ambrogio?” he asked anxiously. “Is everything okay?”

I turned my back on Adam and Eve, hiding my giddy grin. “More than okay, Renfield. We are going to need those warm bodies after all,” I told him. “The nullification cuffs might come in handy as well.”

“Of course, Master Ambrogio. We will see you momentarily.” Rather than waiting for my response, he simply hung up. I chuckled, pocketing the phone.

I thought about the work ahead now that it was more than just a vague wish. When turning from human to vampire, the transition could be brutal. The fledgling vampire often grew wild and erratic. We’d spoken at length about it
