"Of course, he has the famous eyes of a Von Amstel," remarked the prince as his gaze fell on the child next to Lemiel.
Although the cousins hadn't grown up in the same environment, Lemiel and Benedict often met when they were younger and during special occasions.
In contrast to the duke, who appeared intimidating and mischievous, the prince had soft features and preferred wearing lighter clothes, giving him a gentle and amiable appearance. They were around the same age and both vampires.
"As for his mother, I wouldn't dare ask. I'm sure you won't reveal her identity, which is probably the best thing to do in this case."
Knowing Lemiel's nature, Benedict had some doubts about the story, but he chose not to discuss it. Although they were cousins, they often didn't share the same values, and Benedict didn't want to get involved in the duke's personal life. As long as Lemiel fulfilled his duties as a duke, which he did, Benedict had no obligation to interfere.
