I have had this issue now maybe 2-3 times. At first I thought I just forgot to click save, but now it is clear that it is an issue with the game. It doesn't matter what lot I have used or edited, whether I have played on it or not, the issue remains the same. Here is a detailed explanation of what happened last time I played:
I rebuild Vlad's mansion, clicked "Manage worlds" once I was done and moved in a sim to the lot next to Vlad's. I downloaded a house from the Gallery (my own old build) and started playing with the chosen sim. She had a relationship with Vlad, got pregnant, had babies etc. I save the game.
Today I started playing again, but I noticed that Vlad's mansion is now the Maxis-build and the one I had built was gone. I thought I had forgotten to save, but then I realized that the sim I had moved in to the lot next door was still there, still had a relationship with Vlad, the babies were there and the house I downloaded from the Gallery, all done after the original build.
