"I am sure that this will be okay." All is too broad to promise.
He pats Angel's arm. "I regret my actions with Max. But at the time, they felt necessary. I'll tell you a shortened version of the tale. I had a twin sister who was also a vampire like me. But, unlike me, she did not respect the living. She attacked Max. She meant to kill him. Max killed her instead. In so doing, he brought the wrath of her allies upon him. They called for his blood. But I had first rights because she was my sister. Rather than let Max be slain, I took him in as my slave. He was forced to leave his old life and live forever with me. I cared for him the best I knew how, but it was still servitude. It was not the life he deserved. Those people are right to be angry with me, Angel. That they have agreed to live and let live is a mercy."
