Corpses littered the floor, walls lay in ruin, and in the center stood Isolde. Viviane was gone, swallowed whole by her mother’s blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sight was so horrifying that Lulu covered her mouth, her body trembling, unwilling to step a foot farther.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus wanted to stop this. To do something. But he was too late. Far too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now he understood: every eye of the Seven Great Covenants would soon turn toward Velstrath because of the \"agreement\" Isolde had shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t yet know the details of that pact, but he knew the woman—no, the monster—before him had orchestrated this mess deliberately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Madeline’s words made sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did you leak information about me? What was your purpose?\" Seamus asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was steady, though his heart thundered in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isolde could kill him where he stood. Her nightmare still lingered beside her, more than enough to end his life in a breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the power he carried—the one he’d borrowed from her—was meaningless against its source.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Isolde loved control and power. She wouldn’t simply destroy him. Not when she could bend him. Break him. Find use for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever are you saying, my dear? I would never do such a thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was smooth, without a trace of a lie. But Seamus knew better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all the sadistic cruelties she had committed, after what Viviane herself had revealed, there could be no doubt: Isolde was a true-born psychopath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even animals did not torture their young for being \"too kind.\" It was despicable. Disgusting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t believe you,\" Seamus said, his gaze narrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After what you’ve done here, throwing me into hell itself wouldn’t be out of character. You did the same to Viviane, didn’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, he saw her crack. A flinch—brief, sharp—but then it was gone, her mask sliding back into place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She is my daughter,\" Isolde said coolly. \"And if a daughter acts against her mother, I have every right to punish her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For being kind?\" Seamus barked a laugh, harsh and disbelieving. \"You punish people for kindness? That’s your reasoning?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never thought a being like Isolde could be so absurdly unreasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she neither smiled nor frowned. She only stared deep into his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t expect you to understand, Seamus,\" she said, her voice cold and commanding as she stepped closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those who live in the light cannot comprehend the darkness. Kindness may serve you in your world, but in mine, it is weakness. And weakness is death.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are a bad mother, Isolde.\" Seamus clenched his fists, his voice trembling with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You destroy your daughter over things that haven’t even happened. You punish her for what she cannot understand...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His jaw tightened. \"You don’t deserve to be called a mother—you’re a monster. Even I, a powerless human, understand that much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I can’t imagine how she endured centuries under your roof. A roof that should have protected her... but instead, it’s the very thing that broke her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his gaze, shame flickering across his features as he remembered the cruel words he had once thrown at Viviane without knowing the reasons behind her pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t imagine the betrayal she carries in her heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, Isolde looked stunned. Her expression faltered, though only for a moment, before she closed her eyes as if accepting his insult with deliberate calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she opened them again, she was standing so close he could see the faint gleam of mockery in her gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And it seems,\" she added, \"you’ve finally learned to stop being a doormat. You involve yourself now. You act.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of being insulted, Seamus scoffed. \"Oh, I learned. From the cruelest teacher I could imagine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He straightened, meeting her stare without flinching. \"Now tell me the truth. Why did you do it? Do you hate the thought of me as patriarch so much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the only explanation that made sense. That she wanted to snuff out his dream, to prove just how weak and laughable he really was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her answer struck him like a blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not. Your determination is foolish, yes, but I would not waste my efforts on something so trivial.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tilted her head, eyes glinting. \"It was for Madeline.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think I’ll stand idle while that little rat scurries about, making alliances left and right to destroy me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isolde’s voice sharpened, venom-laced. \"If I fall, she—and all of Velstrath—will fall with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She leaned in, her face hovering inches from his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I will drag you all into the abyss with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus was flabbergasted. He didn’t know what to say, but something like that was undeniably Isolde-like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet, it felt wrong. Killing everyone along with her because of her own flaw, her own failure as a matriarch?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t understand it. Maybe because he was just a powerless being who had only gained strength a moment ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But deep down, he believed this never would have happened if Isolde had changed, if she had become a better version of herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing what she had done, he began to understand why Madeline despised her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just her ego that ruined everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are insane.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isolde chuckled. \"Insane? This world made me insane, Seamus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re still young. Live for hundreds of years as I have, and you’ll see the world differently.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or maybe it’s just you,\" he sighed, \"twisting everything until it bends into whatever shape you want it to be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now his suspicions were confirmed. The culprit behind all of this mess stood before him. Seamus had only one thing in mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is Viviane? What do you plan to do with her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disappointed as he was by her betrayal, his anger wasn’t strong enough to let her die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to hear her voice once more: her sincere apology, and the truth of the terrible things she had endured that had driven her to seek vengeance against her mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And maybe then... he would let her go for good. Or maybe he would forgive her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are such a kind person, Seamus. I only hope that kindness won’t lead you to terrible things,\" Isolde said suddenly, freezing him in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, I know you went to Hesse to stop her,\" she smirked, as if reading his mind. \"And something must have happened, since you didn’t return together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just tell me where she is!\" he said impatiently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, she’s here.\" Isolde touched her chest. \"And I won’t let you have her so easily.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1102,"2026-06-03T11:48:03.951Z","2026-06-03T11:48:07.607Z",1,"novelbin.me","77ad7c73e176f2b18232ee27acdd6af81dfaef62a31b943968e247806d68187b","my-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-chapter-54","my-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-chapter-52",244,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-cover.jpg"]
