My Daughter is a Vampire

“How long?” 

“5 more minutes! I just need to put on this makeup.” 

Charlotte’s voice rang from the room rendering Brian helpless. He sighed and sat on the sofa. He swiped his watch and virtual protection appeared.

“Lily, did you find anything about the person who took out Celestial Killing Bomb?”

“Sir, I have run three fun scans in the entire New Gods system and the only thing I could find that could be traced for this person was one account being deleted from the server.”

“Oh! A hundred-level account deleted from the server? But, we should still have the DNA sample and the information about that account, right? Did you find anything?” Brian asked with a look of excitement in his eyes.

“Sir, the information I got is kinda hard to believe,” Lily replied with her virtual eyes filled with shock.

“Come on! There is nothing that is hard to believe in science. Everything has a reason and …”

“Sir, the person whose account was deleted somehow hacked into the main processor and deleted all the information related to that person. There is not a single trace left.”

“….. Now, that is indeed to believe. Someone hacked into my account, someone! Isn’t this interesting? My daughter just tried to make the Space-Time Fuel. And, someone just hacked my firewall.”

“And, no one on this earth should be able to do it at least not within two more years. So, who do you think is the most suspicious person?” 

“Sir, are you pulling my legs? Isn’t it obvious? A person traveled back in time and is currently doing everything. But, we do not have any information about that person. So, we do not know who that person could be.” Lily rolled her virtual eyes and answered._-(0)ᴠʟ.

“You are a little wrong, Lily. Just think about it! Except for me and some core members of UMA, nobody knows about the Celestial Killing Bomb’s real use. And, the person also is believable enough to convince Ely.”

“Ely is a smart girl. She wouldn’t tamper with the Dark matter unless it is really important stuff and the person who convinced her is also very close.” Brian speculate as his smile got wider.

“Sir, can I ask you something?” Lily suddenly questioned which made Brian curious.

(O)ᴠʟ “Yes!” 

“Why did you decide to be ignorant of her presence and Miss Charlotte’s feelings?” 

Hearing this question, Brian was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled and shook his head “You do ask some tough questions. How about you figure this out yourself? I will give you a clue. Why do you think I created the Celestial Killing Bomb?”

“……. I understand, sir.” Lily remained silent for a moment before she realized the situation and nodded her head.

“You have an ability to choose the best solution from infinite solutions. I trust you got the best idea as to why I did it.” Brian smiled and turned around. He was looking at the window.

‘Mom, Dad, is this what being a parent feels like? I don’t feel any hate against them anymore. I even accepted Charlotte. Dad, I want to be just like you. I want to be a great father.’

At this moment, Brian had a big smile on his face. Finally, the door opened and two of them walked out. Charlotte was wearing a high red dress that covers her from her neck to her feet.

Her arms were covered with transparent red sleeves. She was wearing black high heels as well. On other hand, Ely was wearing her usual black dress and had a strange gloomy look on her face. _(O)ᴠʟ

Brian instantly understood why. She was waiting all this time for Charlotte to get ready. He couldn’t help but laugh while keeping his mouth close. 

“Humph!” Ely snorted and walked out of the mansion. Charlotte hurriedly rushed near her while Brian also walked out while commanding.

“Lily, turn off the Secret Protocol Defense except for the cameras!”

“Yes, sir!”

With that command, Brian was finally relaxed as he left the mansion. They took the car and went to the biggest hotel in Zone C. For some reason, Brian didn’t mind spending money on his daughter and Charlotte.

Before, he wouldn’t have cared where he eats. But now, he always wants the best for his lover and his daughter. 

After they reached the hotel, they booked a separate room and ordered some food. While waiting, Brian suddenly remembered something and spoke. 

“Charlotte, I forgot something to tell you. I am going to invite someone occasionally to my lab. His name is Nolan. He is a smart kid, currently working on Dark Matter. And, he can also teach Ely.” 

“No!” Ely shouted which surprised both of them. She pointed at Brian and said, “Only daddy is allowed to teach me.”

“Alright! Alright!” Brian rubbed his hair and sighed. 

“By the way, did you make any friends at the academy today?” 

Ely shook her head and said “No but I did smash a student’s face. Daddy, he was teasing me for being a witch. Daddy, do these red eyes make me look like a witch?”

“Of course not! Those eyes only make you beautiful. And, you are a vampire, not a witch. But, did the headmaster call you because of what you did?” Brian got a little worried when he heard that she punched a student.

Ely didn’t speak but rather looked away. Seeing this, Brian suspiciously pulled her chin and asked “Did you get into some trouble?”

Ely refused to speak but she knew she had to answer no matter how hard she tries to hide.

Ding! Dong!

Suddenly, the bell rang which widened her eyes. Smirking at Brian, she rushed far from him.

“Come in!”

Seeing her behavior, Charlotte chuckled and responded. The waiter came in bringing their orders. After putting them on the tablet, he left. Just when Ely went to eat, Brian pulled her closer and asked.

“Did you get into trouble?”

“I want to eat.” Ely made teary eyes.

“First, you explain the entire situation, or else, no food for you!” Brian strictly replied.

Finally, Ely got no choice but to explain. On her first day, she tried to become friends with everyone but the first person she asked was a boy who called her a witch.

Ely punched him and knocked him unconscious. Thankfully, it wasn’t any fatal injury. Ely was called into the headmaster’s office where she barely escaped suspension.

But, she now has to take the extra classes about morality, disciple, and power control. These were the classes every student who gets into trouble has to take.

And, the worse thing for her is that the boy she punched also needs to take the classes. After hearing her story, Brian didn’t control his laughter anymore. 

He was really happy that his daughter was finally mixing up with the people even if the path is a bit wrong. 

Finally, they continued eating their food and while they are at it, Charlotte spoke.

“Brian, I think we should tell Ely about us. I don’t want to hide this from her anymore.”

This sentence completely turned off Brian’s mind for a moment. He looked at her with a blank expression. He really couldn’t comprehend what she just said.

The spoon on Ely’s hand fell on the plate making a sound that woke him up.

“Look, Ely is already suspicious. I don’t want to build a relationship based on lies. I don’t want to raise Ely as a caretaker or an aunt. I might not be her mother but I still want to raise her as a stepmother.”

When Charlotte said that, Ely lowered her head not knowing what she was thinking. Brian suddenly patted her head and shook his head at Charlotte.

“I don’t want my daughter to make any decision now, especially for relationships.”

But suddenly, Ely shook her head and that threw off Brian’s hand.

“No…. mother and you are totally different….. And, I like being with you.”

At this moment, her hand caught his sleeve as she continued “You don’t think of me as someone special. You love me as your daughter even though we just met.”

“When I came to you, I was afraid that you won’t like me or even outright hate me. But, you came out of the life you wanted to live just for me. You became what you had left behind.”

“You did all that for me… Daddy, if she makes you happy, then I don’t want to be a spoiled kid and stop you. But, can you please give the mother a chance?”

When she asked that, she almost cried while looking at her. 

Brian smiled at her and pulled her into his embrace. 

“You are wrong. You are always special in my heart. Because you are my daughter. And being your father, you will always be special in my eyes. As for the issues about your mother, are you sure you are asking the correct person?”

When he said that, Ely’s eyes widened. She slowly crawled out of his embrace and moved near Charlotte. But before she could speak, Charlotte put her finger on her lips and smiled.

“I will give her a chance if she is willing to be a good wife and a good mother but if she fails you and Brian, I will stand against her.”
