Rico was enjoying the attention that Marissa was giving him and he could not wait until she was a vampire so she could sink her teeth in and enjoy the feeling of feeding off of him, well he will enjoy the feeling too.  He had promised to be honest with her so when she asked why he knew he would have to tell her.  "Well drinking my blood is part of the turning process.  If you as so much get a drop of my blood the sweet taste of it will cause you to want to drink more." Rico sighed a moment while he let it sink in to her mind.<br/><br/>"Once you drink my blood I have to kill you to finish the process because you if don't turn my blood will drive you crazy."  Rico told her honestly and the pain that will cause is enough to make her want to die.  He had seen many do crazy and kill themselves by jumping in front of trains, blowing their heads off, and even jumping off of a cliff.  If there is no body left, it can't very well come back.  "Then once your dead with the blood coursing thru your body, you will have to take a human life to finish the transformation once you come back alive."<br/><br/>Rico knew he was giving her a lot to digest and he hoped she understood what she would have to go thru to be with him. "You can sustain for awhile drinking my blood, but for the full transformation you must kill someone, but I can help with that."
