But in those long seconds, the vampire realized something that he had never thought of before. Maybe there was more to love than just, what the other person can do for you. Maybe you could give your self to that person never thinking about what you might get back from it one day. This thought had not once occurred to him in the 900 years that he had lived. Up till now, he had just seen humans as something that he could use however he liked and no one would say or do anything about it.

But now things were different. He now holds the fate of a human that could make him happier than he had ever been before. The fact that this was now his responsibility made the vampire grow not only as a person but also as a caregiver. If he were to just use Cory as he had with every other human then that would make this pointless. So the vampire knew what he had to do.

The vampire brushed along the skin of the boy he held close to his body and brought his neck ever so slightly closer to his mouth. His blood pulsed faster than it had ever pulsed before making this ever more hard. He knew that he only had one shot at this. One mistake and Cory would be dead. But even through all that, he kept going slowly but surely bringing Cory's neck to his mouth making his resolve that more secure.

As his glossy white fangs made his way to that hot human skin. He could feel the heat radiating off Cory making this ever more thrilling. And just as his fangs reached Cory's skin Cory shifted ever so slightly making his smell even more irresistible. And that's when it happened his fangs pierced the skin and the first drops of venom made its way into Cory's blood stream. As time kept going more and more venom made its way into the blood there was no going back anymore Cory would become a second-rate vampire. That was if he lived through it.
