Maranda's pregnancy had gone well so far. Carrying a child and a potential heir to the throne, would bring her and the Emperor glory and happiness. Congratulations from far away arrived from many families and countries. Whether their happiness was genuine, did not matter as Maranda and the child were safe here with Vladi. Maranda's dearest friend Caleb had also sworn to protect her and the legacy.

As the pregnancy proceeded, Maranda's hunger grew ever so greater. They had already planted some plasma fruit trees on the estate, to help in times of need. However her friends, donors and manufactured plasma packs just weren't going to keep up with this hunger. Towards the end of the pregnancy, Vladi took Maranda out to a new city. Vladi had made and agreement with the locals for them to have this night for themselves and a great feast, as long as no casulties were made. Both Maranda and Vladi, were of high rank and skill, so most of their victims would hardly remember anything. So they ended up in a bar that night and well.. they drank a LOT.
The atmphosphere in the household was warm. As cold blooded and hearted as they were, the excitement and great love for the unborn offspring filled the air. Just in time as was predicted, Maranda went into labor and gave birth to their first born son, Alton. However most unexpectedly, the labor didn't end there. In the dark of the night Madara gave birth to a second son, Aldo. Two sons had been brought to this world, and the family rejoiced. Caleb was the first to visit and assumed to role of an "uncle" right away.
Vladi, the father was very proud of his sons. He however was hardly satisfied and yet again, escorted her Queen to the chambers for a night of love making.
