Since Alex had arrived in Fort Valor Military Academy. He had tasted only blood twice. The first was the blood he had in his backpack. The one he had brought from the Vampire Settlement. The blood in the backpack was big and enough to be able to sustain a Vampire for up to two weeks.
The Vampire leaders themselves deliberately gave all the Vampires that they sent to Fort Valor Military Academy enough blood pack so that they wouldn't go and start hunting for human blood Immediately.
When Alex had fought with Miller and drank his blood. After that day, he noticed that his desire to drink blood was high. So he started to consume his bloodpack like never before and was able to finish it within just two days and now it is empty.
Yesterday, he felt blood thirsty and didn't bother himself. He believed he could control it. But how could he control a Vampire's curse? He must feast on human blood and now he has no option. His desire for blood has increased. Although, he hadn't gone to the blood lust state. He clearly wasn't able to control his desire.
His throat felt dry. Alex didn't want to tell his roommate because he knew they would react to this. But he finally did.
In an instant, Watson was up and out of bed, standing behind Miller. His eyes were wide, and his face was pale.
"You... you need...?" he stammered, unable to form the words. He was shocked by Alex's admission, and he wasn't sure what to do next.
Miller, on the other hand, remained calm and collected. He turned to face Watson, putting a hand on his shoulder to steady him.
"It's okay, Watson," Miler said. "I know this is a lot to take in, but we'll figure this out."
"System." Miller Immediately spoke to the System. "Is it wrong if i give Alex my blood."
"It is not wrong, Miller," the System replied, its voice soothing and reassuring. "You are what is known as a Throsk'Bok, your blood can sustain a vampire for an extended period of time. If Alex were to drink your blood, it would sustain him for up to a week. However, it is important to be aware that if he were to engage in any activity that would trigger his desire for blood, he would need more than what you could provide."
Miller took a moment to process the information.
"So, you're saying that my blood would be like a temporary solution, not a permanent one?" Miller said, making sure he understood correctly. "And that if Alex engages in any risky activities, he could lose control of his need for blood and become dangerous?"
"That is correct, Miller," the System confirmed. "You could think of it as a 'stopgap' solution. It would help Alex in the short term, but it would not solve the underlying issue. And yes, it is important to be aware of the potential risks involved."
Miller nodded, considering his next move.
"I would give you blood." Miller said.
"What's wrong with you Miller." Watson replied.
Miller just looked and Watson and said. "It's okay. He needs my help. I can help him."
The truth was Miller was also feeling bad for Alex. Truly being a Vampire was more of a Curse than a blessing. What if the Human race suddenly goes extinct? It means the Vampires would as well.
"There's no need for that. I would be able to control my desire." Alex said. He was still feeling bad for what he had done to Miller and he didn't want it to repeat itself.
"But Alex, that's not the point," Miller said, his tone gentle but firm. "Even if you're able to control your desire for blood, it's not a sustainable solution. You're a vampire, and you need blood to survive. You can't fight that basic need."
He paused, allowing his words to sink in.
"We need to find a way for you to get blood that doesn't involve hurting anyone else. That's the only way you can live a fulfilling life."
Alex looked down at his hands, his thoughts racing.
Miller then walked to Alex. Watson who is still a scared cat didn't even budge forward. Instead he moved backwards he and was close to the door.
Miller was now in front of Alex and he brought his left palm towards Alex's mouth.
"Bite." He Commanded.
Alex didn't want to. But he could remember how incredible Miller's blood tasted and he knew that he needed to take blood sooner or later. The more he held back his desire. The more he was getting close to Blood Lust State.
"Okay." Alex said.
He opened his mouth wide and his fangs were displayed and then he bit Miller's left palm.
"Hmmm." Miller bit his lip. He didn't want to shout. Miller felt pain. His Quick Regeneration Skill didn't work instantly. This was due to him getting weaker and his HP reducing.
"Alex. I think that's enough." Miller said. "Alex!" He then shouted.
But Alex didn't reply. In an Instant Alex dragged Miller's neck and dug into him with his fangs.
The System knew what this meant and said to Miller with Urgency, "Miller I think Alex is getting addicted to your blood."
