Delico's Nursery

Dali Delico is the kind of vampire noble who was raised to treat duty as a birthright, and he does not get to step away from it even when his private life falls apart. After the loss of his wife, Dali becomes responsible for two very young children, and the promise he made to care for them turns into a daily fight against exhaustion, pride, and a society that judges weakness harshly. At the same time, he remains tied to the machinery of vampire governance through the Vlad Organization, a special task force working under the Blood Alliance Congress, which means he is expected to operate as an elite problem-solver, not a sleep-deprived parent. The answer he settles on is both stubborn and strangely sincere: he turns his estate into a nursery, not only for his own kids but also for the children of other aristocrats who are pulled into the same dangerous assignment. What begins as «just childcare» quickly becomes a pressure cooker where tantrums and bedtime routines coexist with whispered intelligence, political suspicion, and a threat that vampire society struggles to name out loud. The words «True of Vamp» hang over the story like a curse and a myth at the same time, tied to the idea of an original figure whose existence can destabilize everyone through an unseen connection. Dali and his allies have to balance two kinds of vigilance, watching for external enemies and also watching themselves, because one bad decision can cost lives. In this setup, tenderness becomes tactical and patience becomes survival, and the nursery turns into the last place anyone expects to find both a family and a battlefield forming under the same roof.
