Return To The Everwinter House (3)

[Hi all! I have a small announcement to make. Next week, there will be no chapters as I'm preparing for Christmas and the New Year. Chapters will continue until Sunday, and I'll take one week off from 19th to 25th December.

Also, I want to spend some good time storyboarding and planning the next act of the story. I am committed to writing this story to the end, so you don't have to worry about me abandoning it halfway through. However, I will need time to plan the story's conclusion adequately. The story will resume on 27th December.

Thank you for your understanding, and I hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!]

The Matriarch's abode.

It's been a good year since I last stepped foot in this wretched place. The first time I arrived here, my life was in the grasp of Matriarch Innocence. Irina had just turned me into a Vampire, and the ancient Vampire was pissed off that her heir had actually attempted such a risky ritual.
