Casey and him had become very close. He found himself liking the dragon more and more every time he saw him. They had a very physical relationship, not having se like rabbits but had sex more than that one time. At the moment Casey was the only one he had been having sex with.

After one of his visits with the dragon, he decided to take a longer way home. He went down a more rural round that would take him to his house on the outskirts. He walked without a care in the world, not even thinking that any dark creatures would be out tonight. A shiver went up his spine at the sound of leaves rustling behind him. He looked to his right an left, eyes wide when a dark figure could be seen coming towards him.

He turned around to face whoever it was, backing up and tripped over a tree root. He hissed at his clumsiness and tried to scoot back, looking up at the unknown person.

Juliette had been good at keeping to the blood bags for the most part, but she'd run out a long time ago. She'd been trying to do good and hunt animals for a while, but she couldn't take it anymore. She was craving fresh, warm human blood, it was the first thing she thought of when she woke up at night and the last thing that crossed her mind when she turned in. It was a good thing then that she'd managed to not lay a hand on the lady that owned the house.

So she'd gotten out early that night was was just roaming the streets at random, desperately trying not to give into the temptation of attacking random strangers. Luckily there weren't that many people out that night and she had managed for a while to be nice, but there was this kid that smelled of sex and something absolutely mysterious to the blonde. Before she knew what she was doing, Jules found herself walking towards the human.

When the boy tripped, Juliette didn't take long before she was at him. "You smell good," she giggled before she pressed his head to the side and sinking her teeth in. It was heaven on earth. That sweet, sweet metallic liquid just slid down the back of her throat like silk. Releasing the boy for a moment, she chuckled. She was distracted by that strange scent, unlike anything she'd ever smelled, which was probably what had stopped her from killing the boy to begin with. "What is that smell?"

When the woman came into view, he felt his heart quicken. There wasn't something right About this woman. His breath stopped at her words and he winched when she actually made his head tilt to the side and suddenly a sharp pain course through his body. He screamed and actually gripped her arms. He fell backwards once he let him go and started crying, clutching at his neck and barely caught onto what she said.

He curled up and felt something.....odd. His eyes suddenly shot open and a loud scream left him at the pain that course through his body. He was bitten by a vampire.....he was now changing into one.....he didnt want this. He only cried and felt his body twitching and starting to change.

The scream that pierced the night made Juliette chuckle. "No one's coming to your rescue. Please be quiet," she said quietly, watching in fascination as the kid clutched at his neck, realizing what had just happened. Licking her lips, Juliette used her fingers to wipe the corners of her mouth before she licked her fingers, still sitting on her knees as she watched the kid scream and cry. She had made a bloody mess of things and the kid probably would wind up just bleeding to death anyway, but she was proud of her accomplishment of not just killing the boy while feeding. That was a first as far as humans went.

Marcus had just visited Arya and their newest little pet. Amelita was doing surprisingly well when it came to adjusting to her new life, and as long as Damien was mad at him it was the perfect opportunity to try something new. Normally he wasn't the type of person who'd enjoy change. Turning anyone really had been a long process for him, he needed to make sure they'd be suitable for their new lifestyle as well as able to adjust to it rather quickly. In fact, he'd practically beat control into both his fledgelings the way it had been taught him.

He'd been walking home when he heard the infernal screaming of a young boy. Curious as to what would make someone scream like that, Marcus approached them, in order to stop that screaming. When he approached the scene, he was struck by the smell of fresh blood. Frowning slightly, he scowled at the vampiress that was sitting there watching like she had nothing better to do and pulled her to feet. "Scram," he said quietly, thinking to hunt her down and teach her a thing or two later. She seemed rather fresh anyway.

Approaching the boy on the ground, he placed a hand gently under the boy's chin, tilting his head so he could get a good look at the kid. Maybe he'd make an exception to his rules and save the kid. "I can make it all go away. All the pain, the fear, make you immortal. Or I can just kill you right now and put you out of your misery. The choice is yours," he said quietly, biting into his wrist and offering it to the kid. "Drink kiddo, if you want to live."

His father was going to be so angry. The man had even told him that he would be disowned if he was ever turned.....and now he was on the brink of becoming a vampire, totally forgetting that he would have to drink a vampires blood in order to make the transformation complete. His eyes were filled with tears as he barely opened them, staring at the woman and tried to he quite....but the pain was intense

He started whimpering when males voice suddenly appeared. He looked up at the man, he didn't look as fearful when he told the vampire to scram. He tried moving away but the mans hand caught his chin, making him look up at the man and looked confused. He smelt blood and honestly made a face, but leaned forward and started to actually drink from the mans wrist. Now the feeling intensified and he stopped, staring up at the man with innocent but fearful looking eyes.

When the boy drank from his wrist, Marcus smiled gently at him. Once the kid stopped, Marcus chuckled slightly before he picked the kid up. "I'm truly sorry about this, but it'll make the transformation less painful," he said quietly and snapped his neck. Now his body would deal with the transformations while the kid was out until he was healed up again and ready to start living like never before.

It was then that he decided to go back to Arya instead of bringing the boy to himself. After all, he didn't have any human pets at the moment and the kid would be hungry when he woke up again. Walking back the way he'd come from, Marcus used his speed to shorten the time before the boy would lie down on a soft, warm surface. Knocking on the door again, he was surprised to find Amelita opening the door for him and letting him in.

"Are we keeping him?" she asked eagerly, as she continued to open doors until they were in an empty bedroom where he placed the boy on the soft bed, disregarding the mud that needed to be cleaned up later. "He won't be yours, Amelita, get him a human." Once the pink haired girl was excited, there was no way stopping her, but at least she did as she was told. She left them alone for a little while.

He looked up at the man and didn't know what he meant till his neck was broken. He didn't feel a thing and didnt know what was happening or where he was. His lifeless body was being lift up and taken to a house. He didn't wake up till it must have been near morning. He rubbed his eyes and looked around, clearly confused and didn't really remember what had happened to him. His senses.....we're way higher than normal. He started to freak out now and quickly looked around.

He walked around the room now, opening the door and poked his head out. He tiptoed down the hallway and saw a bathroom. He quickly went in and saw himself and nearly freaked out. He yelped at the blood and mud that was mixed and covered his neck and cloths. "W-what happened?" He whispered.

It soon became apparently that the boy wouldn't wake up in a while, so he ordered the human away again and placed Amelita on guard duty, telling her strictly to not fall asleep outside the door. So he left the newborn standing outside the door, terrified that he'd hurt her if she misbehaved, while he went and got some rest. Arya of course wasn't too happy about him picking up a stray. At least she'd let the kid rest for the time being and he'd assured her he wouldn't dump another stray in her lap.

After resting up, Amelita was dismissed to do whatever Arya needed of her. Naturally, he checked to see the boy was still in the bed before he went to tend to other things while waiting for signs of life. It wasn't until he heard tiptoing and a yelp that he got up and opened the door to the bathroom. "Morning, sleepy," he chuckled. "You're safe here. How much do you remember of last night?" He wasn't going to be pushy with this one. In fact, he didn't even know his name. "What's your name?"

He'd been about to say something else when he heard someone else try to sneak around. Looking over his shoulder, he frowned slightly before he realized that maybe someone more contemporary might be just what was needed to make the boy feel at home. "It's ok, sweetie, come say hello." It didn't take more than blinking before the girl was peaking around his shoulders at the boy, acting almost shy. "Welcome to the family," she squeaked, making Marcus pull her in front of him to stop the nonsense.

He turned the faucet on and was trying to wash the blood and mudd off when a voice made him jump and he quickly turned to see the man from last night. The details were very vague.....but he remembered this man very well. He just stared at the man for a moment before replying softly."N-not much..." He backed up some, clearly afraid as to why he was here and what happened.

He tried looking over the mans shoulder when a soft females voice caught his attention."I'm Alec......" He replied now to the man who had this dominating air to him. He didn't smile back or anything and kept his wide and innocent filled eyes on the two strangers."Um what's your name and why am I here?" He asked.

It was kind of cute actually, how much like a doe in the headlights the kid was. So frightened and innocent. So very much unlike any of the others in his family, even if Amelita had her shy and frightened moments. So when the newborn backed up, it was a good thing that Gale was there to make the situation less frightening.

"You were attacked by a rogue vampire, you chose to live and now you're with your own," he nudged Amelita gently to get her to talk. He didn't want to frighten Alec too much and it occurred to him that she might be the key to that. "It's very nice to meet you, Alec. This is Marcus, and I'm Amelita. Marcus brought you here so you'd be safe while you adjust to your new lifestyle. It's not that bad you know, being a vampire. You'll get used to it soon enough," she was giggling again though. It was rather exciting not to be the freshest blood in the family anymore, though hopefully this Alec would be treated nicely. He seemed so.. innocent and harmless.

"You must be thirsty, I'll get you a human," and with that the giggling girl disappeared. She was gone just as quickly as she had appeared, though her giggling could be heard from across the manor they were in. Marcus couldn't help but chuckle at the girl's enthusiasm. "Let's get you all cleaned up, and on the bright side, you don't have to worry about things that go bump in the night anymore. I'm not going to hurt you, unless you misbehave, so relax, get cleaned up and we'll get you ready to go out into the world soon enough. Maybe you'll even get to hurt the girl that made it necessary for you to change in order to survive."

Here with his own? He was somewhat confused at first but then the scenes of last night started to play out in his head and it took alot to not break down on the spot. He was turned.....he was a vampire now. He had to gripped the edge of the sink to not fall over and barely heard what the girl Amelita had said next and only her giggling made him look up again and swallowed the lump that rose in his throat.

He listened intently on what the man said and bite his lower lip."O-okay....." He whispered and decided to just go along with this. He felt awkward at that moment but decided to take his shirt off and shivered some, looking at the damage that was done to his shirt and sigh."Could I take a bath?" He requested timidly and pulled the shirt closer to his very curvy and skinny body.

It was obvious it was quite the shock for the kid to learn what he'd become. It usually was a shock to everyone who wasn't prepared for it. Only those truly prepared woke up again fully aware of the situation and without freaking out. He would imagine he wasn't any less frightened at first himself, but then again, he barely recalled being human so it didn't make much of a difference how he'd reacted to his own awakening.

"It'll be alright, Alec, you'll get used to it. You'll even come to enjoy it, most people do." Just as he was about to answer the newborn's question about a bath, Amelita returned, humming along as she brought the human girl into the room. "It's alright, Alec," she said cheerfully as she brought the human closer to the boy. Taking one of the girl's hands, she bit into the back of it and stepped away, watching as the human reached her hand out to Alec. "It's ok, drink. If Amelita can stop from drinking, you can avoid killing her. She's only a few months older to this life than you are," he said gently and smiled slightly at the two newborns. Hopefully the kid would understand that he needed the blood, and Amelita was doing rather well at keeping away from the fresh blood trickling into the girl's hand. Arya must be keeping her rather well fed.

He let Amelita watch Alec while he went to turn on the water. While the tub was slowly filling up, he watched the pink-haired girl smile encouragingly while pushing the human towards Alec. "You won't hurt her, just drink a little and you'll be fine." It was obvious she wasn't afraid of Marcus anymore, but maybe that was just because she was facing Arya whenever she misbehaved and the blonde certainly wasn't a walk in the park either. "Amelita, give the poor boy some space," he mused, taking in the slim features of his newest acquisition.

This was all so.....confusing and shocking to him. Before Marcus could finish about the bath, the pink haired girl came bak with a human. He blinked and didn't quite understand why they brought a human till the smell of blood liked the room. A instinct kicked in and his throat started to burn like a bitch. The human was pushed closer to him and he tried to take a step back but his back hit the wall.

He didnt want to drink......but his desire for human blood started to overwhelm him. He gripped the girls wrist and brought it to his mouth and started to drink. He found the way to stop from killing the girl and just pushed the human away from him and quickly just walked towards the bath tub. It started to sink in that he was now a vampire and he just drank from a human. He almost forgot that Marcus and the pink hair girl was still in the room and unbuttoned his pants, lowering them off his defined hips and stepped out of them. He froze when he dared to look up and saw Marcus was still standing there and want so red in the face that it hurt. "I'm sorry I forgot you were there!" He said and tried to find something to cover him up.

It was obvious this wasn't the life the boy had intended, but he'd chosen it himself when he chose to live the night before. So far he was doing well though, he'd managed not to kill the girl so he could actually be quite well at his new life. When the boy started to undress like he was alone in the room, he merely nodded at Amelita and both the vampiress and the human exited the room quietly. "Nonsense Alec, let's get you all cleaned up." He was amused though and merely guided the poor boy to the bathtub rather than leave the room.

"For God's sake, there's nothing to be shy about, just get in the bath already." Though he sounded strict, Marcus was genuinely amused by Alec's sudden shyness. "You'll want for nothing, ever again, I'll see to that," he muttered and stroked the kid's cheek gently. There was nothing he wanted more at this point than to make this boy his new pet, and he would slowly ease the boy into it, but he'd learned from Damien that taking away someone's ability to choose wasn't a good way to win them over.

"Once you have control over your new cravings, you'll be allowed out on your own, until then, I'm afraid you're stuck with us." Leaning down, he placed a gentle kiss on Alec's cheek before he poured some bathing salts into the water.

He bite his lower lip and looked up at Marcus when the others tone became more strict and just dropped the towel and crossed his arms over his chest and was red in the face. He stepped into the bath tub and rubbed his cheek once Marcus left a kiss on it. "So.....are you going to teach me how to be a vampire?" He asked softly and pulled his knees close to his chest and didnt really know what was in store for him.

"My dad isn't going to want me anymore....." He said softly and hide his face in his knees and started to softly sob at this now.
