"Lucas!" I screamed at him in terror. "You will poison yourself!"
"You know that I can't control my lust for blood," he said quietly. "And you also know that I can't watch you in pain after what I promised. The only way to save you would be to let me suck it out quickly for you."
"If you die because of me, how am I going to live?" I snapped back, the tears streaming down my face at that thought. "You have much control for your lust of blood for otherwise you would have drained me of it."
"You think I can stand and watch you die whilst do nothing about it? I would rather die along with you for my existence means nothing if the mission isn't accomplished. Your blood is too sweet to attract anyone. I would rather be the only one taking some of it than letting another drain it. Now let me drink so that I don't have to see either of us die."
'What is he talking about?' I could ask myself in misery. 'How can both of us live if we both have poison within us?'
