I woke up to the sound of my own screams. Alexander was beside me, his eyes blazing with an unnatural hunger. He had bitten me, and I could feel the poison coursing through my veins. Panic set in as I realized what was happening. I was becoming one of them – a vampire. Alexander held me close, whispering soothing words into my ear. But I was beyond comfort. My body was changing, my senses heightening. I could feel the darkness within me, growing stronger by the minute. I was no longer human, and I didn't know if I could ever go back.
Alexander took me through the transformation, teaching me how to control my newfound powers. It was a painful process, but he was there every step of the way. He showed me how to hunt, how to feed. He taught me how to live forever. And through it all, our love grew stronger. I knew I would never be able to go back to my old life, but I didn't care. I had Alexander, and that was all that mattered.
