AITL for having his life essence drained the night of his daughter’s birth?

I am Queen Moira of Forgotten Hollow (ya, f). I married Count Vladislaus Straud IV of Forgotten Hollow (“ya”, m) for status some years ago. I have toiled away since and have become the rightful Queen of my world. Vlad, however, has a different vision for our community than mine. While I lead my court toward the betterment of Vampire-Kind he selfishly gorged himself on a diet of my court visitors. He was making decent headway on tarnishing my image, when I made the executive decision to have him removed from the equation. First, however, I needed an heir. I bedded him one last time and became pregnant with our daughter. On the night she was born (if we’re honest at the same moment) her father’s life was ended by my sweet little undead cow plant. I have no regrets, but I do wonder if our daughter would feel the same way. I’ve asked my noble advisor and royal protector, Dame Lilith Vatore (ya, f, Caleb’s daughter named after her late aunt), and she feels Vlad would have only interfered in her upbringing and compromised the crown for the next generation, if he didn’t lead a coup against one of us. One may say, however, she is biased. So, AITL?
