@paradiseplanet You're always so mysterious. I know it's to get @MaggieMarley and I all fired up ('cause neither of us seem to have any patience at all :blush: ), but when she's old enough, I'd love to see her. And I know you'll eventually tell us who her parent is, but in the meantime, you must know the gears are spinning (antici...............pation).
Alright alright, I'm due to tell you about him anyway:
Meet Daniel Lawrence (and his mom Loretta), one of my most favorite sims and my first sim ever made in the game. He started out as a toddler so he was the first to grow up in my game:

Now what makes him special you ask? Well he is the biggest momma's boy in the world, and is willing to insure him and his family live forever by any means necessary! He's the Evil Genius type, but has Good Manners so creates a very interesting sort of character. He chose to be a Secret Agent over a Villain merely for the better rewards for his family. He's also superficial and married his wife, June Kay for her looks. She's legally insane and does not have a good relationship with Loretta, who is a famous artist, and her husband; they have an unhappy marriage. But, their son Calvin is their shining hope borne out of their union.

Now how does he tie into the vampires? Well, he's also Caleb's third boyfriend! If you hadn't figured it out already, Caleb is a player and has his own relationship troubles at home (his second boyfriend who is not Dillan but another vamp which I'll leave out until later) and they met when Daniel was with his Intellectuals club gathering, though he already had some vampire connections with Count Vlad being a part of his E.V.I.L. club (Every Villain Is Lemons). They became good friends through Caleb wanting to finish his aspiration and respectfully ask him for a drink of plasma. Daniel initially refused but it didn't sour their relationship. They met again one fateful night at the nightclub (the one where the Partihaus gathers at) and one thing lead to another and they ended up making woohoo in the closet (that was also when Daniel discovered he was bi). Caleb's vampiric charms may or may not have been involved.
They sealed the deal at Chez Llama, and that's when they made their affair official! Caleb knows about Daniel's wife, but Caleb must keep the fact he has multiple lovers a secret from even Daniel, though I would think Daniel knows because he's a pretty smart guy. He still has feelings for his wife though and does not want to disturb his family life at home, so keeps this entire other life as far away from them as possible. So long as June doesn't upset his mother
too much, he won't have to confront June about their failure of a marriage yet...for now.
All his life, he'd been searching for a means to keep him and his mother alive longer than the others. Although he is friends with Death himself, he knows it is inevitable and do whatever means to slow its progress or even halt it. Before Andre DaSilva moved in with the Behr sisters and became a vamp hunter on the side, he was bunking the Lawrence house and they're partners in crime together. Daniel essentially persuaded (manipulated) him to write Books of Life for him, his mom, and for Calvin (I think I made Andre write one for June too but Daniel didn't commission him for that one; oh how he treats his trophy wife). Daniel senses that time is ticking and even had to acquire a Potion of Youth to give to his mother to drink before she became an Elder.
Now that he's romantically involved with Caleb, the option of vampirism is up on the table (something I maybe actually considering as the storyteller) Daniel may want Caleb to turn him so that he can then pass the vampirism to his mother, and eventually to Calvin, so that they may live forever, but he must know that Caleb can be fully trusted. That's why after he was abducted when coming home from work late at night, Zynthia was born soon after and handed over to Caleb, so that it doesn't further disturb his albeit "normal" family life at home, essentially giving up his alien daughter to the Vatore coven to raise as a "tribute". Only him and his mother know about the transaction. How will the raising of Zynthia go, being under the care of vampires? And will Daniel accept the conversion to vampirism for his selfish desires?
