Many people know about vampires, although they don't know much about them. Like whoever said vamps cannot reproduce, well, they were right, for the most part. One should know, only female vamps can't reproduce, males can, although it's very rare and highly unlikely. If a male does reproduce, however, it is always with a human female, and the results are either, dead child, or a half-blood, like me.
My father met my mother the year before I came, only, he never told her that he was a vamp. Soon, they married, and I came along, what a surprise. For five years my father kept our secret hidden, untill I was about five, and mother found me in a pool of blood, an intruder at my little feet, liking the blood of my hands with a large smile on my face. She washed me up, put me in new clothes, and placed me up for adoption. Typically, a vamp couple took me in as their own and raised me not to be, what other vamps thought, a true beast in human flesh. In order to help me protect myself from vamps that would want me dead, they bought me a katana made from pure silver.

Little did I know what was to happen ten years later.

And, by the way, my name, is Kalina.
