Lily laughed. "It's fine, really. The founder of Lemachard, Philip Lemachard, was who turned me. I have a fondness for history, he moved back into his old house, and my curiosity got the better of me. I didn't know he was a vampire then, of course." She moved to take a seat. "He used to be a monster, and terrorized Europe with Sang, the vampire who turned him. When he could no longer live with the guilt of his actions, he left Sang and created Serum V, a medicine that suppresses a vampire's hunger. That's what I take; if I drink human blood, I'll be lost, unable to return to being human."
