Trying to join a House in Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind?

The Xbox version Game of the Year edition. I am trying to join House Redoran, the honourable Dunmer (my favourite race) warriors.

Unfortunately I can't seem to as I've hit a snag. I was supposedly meant to talk to a Redguard female call Neminda but the first time I spoke with her I was a vampire (who were much better in this than Oblivion, at least there were clans and none of this added vampirism rubbish) and so she attacked me. I ran out of the building before she landed a hit and now that I'm cured (but I am now a werewolf which is so cool and I hope they have it in Skyrim, along with joinable packs and much faster movement and higher jumps) I have went back and she attacked me still. I killed her in defense but whenever I bring about the subject of joining the House I keep being referred back to Neminda. She's dead and gone.

Is there any way other than the main quest to join this House to complete their given quests and move up in ranks.

I prefer these guys because they like the Legion of which I am a member and they like the Tribunal Temple of which I am a member. Plus they are warriors and favour many of my skills, and are the traditional Dunmner warriors. They are cool.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
