This vampire prince was clearly performing the final step of the first embrace—through slumber, like hatching an egg, turning me into a full-fledged vampire! Rion once told me that vampires in this state are in deep hibernation, with their physical and mental strength at their weakest, much like a mother during childbirth. It takes 24 hours to transfer part of their essence to their "child." Clearly, the time hadn't come yet, and now the most urgent thing was to escape—of course, it was also the best time to kill him!
When I focused on killing him, a voice in my heart screamed, "No, no, no..." The more I tried to use my will to manipulate the blood in his body, the more my head hurt, as if I were wearing a tight curse or having my nerves torn apart. Perhaps it was because I had drunk his blood; this awkward "blood is thicker than water" had a powerful effect.
Forget it. Since I couldn't kill him, escaping was the better option.
