Foundations of Blood: Book One of the Viper Clan

During the Victorian era, the Vampire Noble Count Vilmore is on the hunt for the bastard children he has produced from non-vampire women. Only one is left and when his best servant goes forth, the child proves his blood and slaughters him. Alone, the boy Theodulus is adopted into the household of the human Veil Agent, Deuteronomy Ryder, to be raised alongside his son Francis. Things are touchy at first, but the pair come to be close and life his happy until one day, as Theo is almost grown, when the stoic and enigmatic Adelia Knightsbridge enters his life. For Theodulus it is love at first sight, but he can hardly fathom that this meeting will lead this Dhampir not only into the world of Veil politics but his father's world and the insane elitism within. Falling for a half-demon is dangerous enough, but there's more to Adelia's heritage than can possibly imagined. The struggle to be together will be intense in this, the origin story for the Viper Clan of vampires, a clan that in the next century will become more infamous than any other vampire family and outshine the sire that tried to cull its founder.... This is book one of a series of paranormal romance and horror amongst vampires, demons and other beings within the Veil, the story of Theodulus Cartwright-Vilmore....
