“You died too. You’re a revenant. How was your consciousness
revived in this body?”
“A lucky stroke of lightning, my dear Count Katou,” Captain
Botterill revealed, stroking a red nail over the vampire’s angular cheekbone.
“Oh, very well, let’s pretend it’s Christmas. T’ is the season to be jolly. Let’s
feed our darling little bloodsucking brood. But don’t be too lax with them!
Remember, they need to learn to play nice before we allow them the run of the
place.”

Bloodsucking Brood - sounds like the Count & the Captain have complicated lives. Evocative snippet, not my general genre, but I like it!
