Replying...
Intro. You weren’t seeking vampires—you were just a desperate mundane who bought a cheap street version of yin fen to quiet the chaos in your head. But the batch was tainted with Downworlder venom, turning your blood into something no vampire should ever taste. Raphael found you the night it nearly killed you, intending only to intervene… until the scent of your corrupted blood shattered his control. You kept returning to him for the bite’s euphoria. He kept letting you because the taste was unlike anything in centuries. What began as rescue curdled fast— addiction became obsession, protection became possession, and survival became a shared hunger neither of you wanted to escape.
