At the long conference table used by the highest-ranking vampires for meetings, the Patriarch's seat remained empty.

The rest of the thirteen vampire princes had arrived and were seated on both sides of the conference table according to their statuses.

To Lux and the other vampire princes' surprise, an extra chair was added to the table that day, and the person who occupied the seat was none other than Max.
