The realization became clear the moment Mark started feeling watched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t imagination. The sensation followed him everywhere, from the laboratory corridors to his private quarters. Even outside, when he walked alone in the garden, he felt eyes on his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made him restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One evening, while he was checking Flynn’s condition and speaking softly with him about the recent procedures, the boy suddenly leaned closer as if tired and whispered into his ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The spider is listening.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark’s heart skipped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kept his expression neutral and continued speaking in a normal tone of voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your condition is stable,\" he said aloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Flynn leaned in and whispered, \"Meet me in the garden in one week. Come from the west wing instead of the east.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flynn immediately coughed, faking weakness convincingly. He leaned heavily against the wall as if exhaustion had overwhelmed him. The performance was perfect. No one would suspect anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that day, nothing felt the same. Even the walls seemed to have ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, Mark was summoned to a meeting with a Great House: Corvane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he entered the chamber, he felt it. Cold stares pierced him, especially the crimson and golden ones seated across the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were only two representatives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman with long black hair was Roanna. Her posture was sharp, elegant, and arrogant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside her sat a man with a narrow, villainous face. Sharp eyes. Constant frown. Thin grey irises that seemed to dissect everything in sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His name was Lance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph. I cannot believe you made us wait for a human,\" Roanna said with open disgust. \"In my house, he would be torn apart for daring to meet my eyes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Princess Roanna,\" Robert said smoothly without turning, still gazing out the window. His tone carried quiet authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned slowly and smiled at Mark. \"Sit here, Mark. Do not mind her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You!\" Roanna hissed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Princess Roanna,\" Robert corrected mildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or should I say, simply Roanna. Your reign has ended. Adapt to the new age. It may benefit you. For instance, replenishing the members of your declining house.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face flushed with anger. Her fingers curled tightly on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark understood the message instantly. The table was round. There was no \"head\" position. Robert deliberately removed hierarchy from the seating arrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Status meant nothing here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The discussion began. They spoke of the Perfect Vampire project. It had already been progressing for two months.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Robert had instructed Mark to focus on understanding the Vitalis Core. What it truly was. How it stored Bloodstyle. Why does it sustain power?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The results were frustrating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they dissected a Vitalis Core physically, it resembled nothing more than hardened stone. Deceptively simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They brought Bella in repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She described a small sphere inside the core, no larger than a pearl. Its color matched the Bloodstyle category. Yet even cores of identical Bloodstyles had different internal patterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bella also observed something else, it was energy. The same kind she once saw within Flynn’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A month later, an accidental breakthrough came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The internal patterns of a vampire’s core matched the pattern of the vampire who turned them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every newly turned vampire carried the signature imprint of their \"mother\" within their Vitalis Core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using that discovery, they attempted something reckless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They removed the inner sphere from two recently deceased vampires–of course only Belle was able to do this–switched the spheres between them, and reinserted the cores into their respective bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Robert performed a ritual none of the doctors fully understood. It involved blood markings, chanting to the False God, and energy that Bella described as \"threading\" through the corpses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miraculously, both vampires revived. When tested, their Bloodstyles had switched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The result stunned everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the process had strict limitations. It only worked on vampires who had been dead for less than twenty-four hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, the body began to decay in a way that made resurrection impossible. The core rejected the host, and the flesh turned toxic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even worse, the success could not be replicated consistently. When they attempted the ritual again using another pair of freshly killed vampires, neither revived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cores rejected the bodies completely, burning from the inside out even with the same pattern. No one could explain why the first experiment worked while the second failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They still did not know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The inner sphere within the Vitalis Core eventually received a name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They called it the Eye of the Soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And only then did Mark understand why Robert had insisted he focus on this line of research.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We intend to create the perfect vampire,\" Roanna said calmly across the table. \"One capable of holding all four Bloodstyles.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her lips curled slightly. \"You already know part of the answer. We will provide resources.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark felt his fingers grow cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If his deduction was correct, they were planning to construct a single core capable of housing four different Eyes of the Soul simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swallowed. \"And the body?\" Mark asked carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A body is still a vessel. Even if the core holds four Bloodstyles, can the flesh endure that level of power?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The question lingered in the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was right. A vampire’s body, though superior to a human’s, still had limits. Too much unstable energy could tear it apart from within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even if they attempted to augment it through surgery or bioengineering, human technology was not advanced enough to build a vessel strong enough to survive it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time humanity reached that level, Mark himself would be long dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our agreement was to research how humans can hold vampire power safely,\" Mark said firmly. \"Not this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This crossed every line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they succeeded, vampires would no longer need to hide. No opposition could match them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See?\" Roanna’s voice darkened. \"This is why humans should never overstep. He knows too much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rose abruptly, eyes blazing. \"Kill him. Or turn him into one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tension sharpened instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Robert did not object. He simply watched Mark, measuring him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark stood slowly. The door was directly behind him. He stepped back carefully, feeling the cold wood press against his spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roanna laughed, the sound sharp and satisfied. Lance rose beside her, golden eyes gleaming with anticipation. It was clear he would not hesitate to either kill or convert him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the air thickened, Robert spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do not be rude to my friend,\" he said calmly. \"Of course, he will cooperate. Won’t you, Mark?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes fell on him. Mark nodded slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But inside, his mind was already moving, he had to run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already sent enough reports to the Vampire Hunter Association. Enough evidence to expose Latros. Yet they had done nothing. They had left him here alone among predators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mark was alone.\u003C\u002Fp>",1143,"2026-06-03T11:48:03.951Z","2026-06-03T11:48:07.608Z",1,"novelbin.me","e3df010a033a3d70666cd48b009bf5be84a649aa0ee1a619c51564f9f8097481","my-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-chapter-239","my-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-chapter-237",244,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-cover.jpg"]
