Ivy smiled at his presence. "Dear husband, why are you looking so tired?" she asked worriedly.
"My dearest Ivy, I'm going to rest here inside your room. I badly needed rest!" he said. "But I will feed on your blood, first," he said, tenderly.
"Sure, husband," Ivy replied and extended her right arm to his mouth.
Maxwell sank his teeth greedily on Ivy's skin, drinking her blood to his heart's content.
A few seconds later. Maxwell's craving for blood was finally sated. "Thank you, my love! Your blood is always sweet! I'm going to rest now," he said.
"Okay, my husband. Rets well, I'll watch over you," Ivy replied sweetly.
Maxwell smiled and planted a quick kiss on Ivy's lips. He lay his body down on the bed and shut off his eyes.
Ivy covered Maxwell's body with the blanket and lay down beside him, looking at his face adoringly. She closed her eyes and sleep with him.
