The situation caused mixed feelings for Lilly. Despite the obvious reluctance and anxiety there was a pang of compassion as Darion dropped his defenses to openly speak to her. His vampiric youth showed, but suited the fledgling vampire. Or so she thought anyway. Her heart skipped a beat while it beat energetically in her chest while ideas crept in her mind. Lilly quietly wondered how young he really was. Would he be young enough to be coaxed by her? Could she teach him not just what she knew about vampiric society, but also how to live with his curse? Was he even redeemable? The very idea seemed insane even to her. Lilly had always thought to herself that vampires weren't truly people anymore as their curse took their humanity and soul.<br/><br/>So caught up in her thoughts, Lilly didn't notice Darion's intent interest in her, fueled by his unnatural hunger for blood. Her heart beating in her chest as she looked back up at him with her pale blue-grey eyes while he spoke.<span style="color: blue">“I personally don't really have the resources to obtain blood packs. And my maker doesn't provide me enough to get my hands on the resources I need. I am too young to have gathered what I would need to support myself like that. I have to rely on people, so I am sorry.” </span>Taking the hand offered to her, Lilly wondered if Darion was truly sorry, or was just trying to placate her. She felt he was but didn't believe it to be truly heartfelt. She felt like Darion was a wolf apologizing to a sheep because he has to eat it. The words were a formality, changing nothing about the situation or it's result.<br/><br/><i>"That's...alright, Darion. I understand."</i>Lilly said while he swept her up into his arms. Her heart fluttered in excitement despite the gravity of the situation. His cold, but powerfully build shape so close to her own in such an intimate hold had a certain effect on her she couldn't deny. A soft sigh escaped her lips as her lips brushed over her exposed throat. She closed her eyes, her heart racing like she just ran a marathon. Lilly felt a little nauseous, excitement mixing with fear in a volatile cocktail that was being served in a glass of her nervousness. Her only reaction when his fangs pierced her artery was a quiet whimper, her body briefly tensing before relaxing once again as he began to feed on her.<br/><br/>Euphoria rushed through Lilly's body as Darion reduced the world to just him feeding on her. Panicked thoughts that had sprung forth by sheer anxiety now faded away in the background of her mind. It was a strangely pleasant and addicting feeling that she felt as he drank her sweet blood. The dance of her heart in her chest giving her new vampire master a succulently extensive meal as the blood flowed richly from her wound into his mouth to be quickly consumed by his hunger. Lilly felt herself drifting on the awareness while he fed on her, before abruptly returning back to her senses as he removed his fangs from her neck and drew back. She pressed a hand against the wound left behind, the saliva left behind by the vampire having a mild healing effect that would help the injury quickly close. Lilly felt like ages had passed while he fed on her, but a nearby digital clock told her otherwise.<br/><br/>Back when Lilly has been a relatively new Hunter she had always wondered how people could so easily submit to the vampires. She first-hand learned how dominant and overpowering the kindred could be however, and how addicting being fed on was. Its effect not unlike that of some drug, sending your pleasure centers abuzz with endorphins while leaving you desiring more. Only through supreme mental effort Lilly had managed to stay in control of her own desires so far, but the fear that she would fully submit some day to be the vampire's servant was there.<br/><br/>Lilly responded in similar fashion as Darion to the all-reaching whisper heard all throughout the hotel. Her trained senses and instincts instantly bringing her to full attention. She made no show to reach to a weapon that wasn't there, but quietly listened to the voice while remaining standing. When the message was over, she looked towards Darion for her reaction. She tilted her head a little as he sighed and began to prepare.<i>"Time to go then?"</i>She nodded in response to his words while he retrieved his gear, quickly slipping in the bathroom.<br/><br/>Looking into the mirror there, Lilly first cleaned the bite marks left behind before covering them with a small piece of band-aid. She then fetched some water and salt chips to help replenish and recover her lost blood supplies. Rather than keeping Darion waiting, she simply held on to it while walking out the door held open by the young vampire. Trailing closely behind him, she quietly consumed her small meal. Arriving at the entrance hall she remained close to Darion while subconsciously keeping as much distance and people between her and the ancient vampire. The simple presence of the elder vampire enough to cause her deep comfort as she stood within arm range of Darion.<i>"I doubt it'll remain just us few for very long, sir."</i>She quietly said while watching the servant girls near the entrance.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
