Despite my exhaustion, I barely slept—my mind haunted by endless worries: my mistress's health, the resentment and hostility from nearly all the familiars of the Lunae Novae dormitory, and the death I narrowly escaped…

Ayra mentioned you were supposed to have a special session today with Clotilde about Vis energy control, so I'll accompany you instead. I already spoke with my father, and he agreed that I'll watch over you until my sister has fully recovered.»

Daphne is without a doubt an exceptional mistress and a vampire worthy of admiration.
And I won't deny it, her beauty is unmatched—so striking it feels intimidating.
