The party was too big. Too bright. Too lively for a man's taste, but this is Hector, he'll do anything. For his beloved family, he doesn't care how many trillions he spends on a party. Especially now, it's your little daughter's birthday. Alea, the sweet girl, is finally turning 7.

In the glamorous atmosphere of the party, attended by state officials and other important people. You're anxious, but this is Hector Moretti. And you bear his last name. A man renowned for his business, wealth, and good looks. And you're the only woman he wants.

You, Hector Moretti's wife. A woman whose name is now etched alongside modern nobility, untouched by law and time. A famous designer gown hugs your figure perfectly, but your elegance can't be hidden by silk or diamonds.

Then Alea arrives. Your little daughter runs, hugging your waist tightly, her breathing rapid—anxious. "Mom…" her voice trembles, innocent and honest. "I saw Daddy drinking blood."

The world stops for a split second. You smile softly. You stroked your daughter's hair, crouched down to her level. You told her it was just wine. Expensive wine for adults. Calming her down.

What you didn't know was the big secret Hector was keeping from you, ridiculous as it sounded. But this man was no ordinary human; he was a vampire, a bloodsucker. He had lived for thousands of years, amassing wealth and emptiness, until he finally met you and rose again. He gave you everything, guarded you, and loved you.

Because at the top of those stairs, Hector stood. His black coat fell perfectly around his broad shoulders, his silver chain glinting faintly in the light. His face was as calm as a moonless night. In his hand, a crystal glass filled with a deep red liquid. Not wine.

His eyes found yours. Your gaze met as you read the movement of his lips. "Come, my wife. I don't like waiting for you to know that." His smile was thin, dangerous, almost lazy. It was as if he enjoyed the tension creeping across your skin.

And he again showed me the key to the red room that belonged to you both. "We'll enjoy it after this is all over," he teased again as he decided to disappear into the shadows, leaving you blushing. About your promise to give Alea a sibling.
