Love Bites (Klance)

The Prince (angst with good ending)

-270 years ago-

Keith's POV:
"Ah my little kitten is back from there hunt I see. So how did those old villagers react?" Lotor asked pulling away from his book with a snake like grin plastered on his face. "They were afraid of course. I don't blame them. I'm afraid of myself too sometimes..." I said keeping my head down as I walked past him. "Not this again. When will you learn to just let lose?! You're a vampire now! You have been for 30 years!" Lotor said sounding annoyed.

"Because I still hold on to my humanity, unlike your other pets." I said glaring over my shoulder. Lotor just rolled his eyes at me. "Such a shame. For a while I thought you'd end up being my favorite, oh well." He went back to reading his book. I scoffed as I walked to my room.

As a changeling of Lotor, the prince of vampires, I stayed in his castle with all of Lotor's other pets. As I walked through the halls a few of them tried to start a conversation with me, but I just wanted to be alone. I apologized to them and headed straight to my room.

I locked the door and walked over to the window. I couldn't see myself in its reflection anymore. Each night I would eat less and less hoping that it would starve this virus within me. Instead it only made me feel more wild. I tryed my best to suppress my hunger for blood, but some nights it was almost torture. Tonight was one of those nights.

I had hidden a pair of silver hand cuffs I stole from a vampire hunter and when my hunger got bad I would tie myself up so I didn't hurt anyone. Yeah the silver left burn marks on my skin, but I'd take a burn over killing someone any day.

I was tied up in the corner of my room when I heard a knock on my door. "Go away!" I yelled at them. "Come now Keith. Is that any way to treat your creator?" Lotor's voice said calmly through the door. "Sorry let me rephrase: Go away asshole!" I yelled again. "That's it I've-" Lotor kicked the door open but stopped what he was saying when he saw me. "What the hell?!" He said racing over to my side and uncuffing me.

"No wait! Give them back! I need those!" I said trying to grab them.
He looked at me in horror. "Why on earth would you need these?! They're hurting you!" He said glancing at my burnt wrists. "They'll heal!" I said still wrestling with him for the cuffs. "Keith you need to- wait your eyes are abnormally red... have you not been eating?" He said sounding more worried now.

I stoped wrestling with Lotor and changed positions to hug my knees. "Maybe..." I said hiding my face behind my long hair. "Keith..." Lotor said quietly as he placed his hand on my shoulder. "You can't torture yourself like this. You'll go insane." "This, This isn't torture." I said gesturing to my wrists, "What's torture is sucking the life out of a innocent human who happened to be in the wrong place, at the wrong time!" I said closing my eyes as my hunger crawled up my stomach.

"If that's how you feel Keith..." Lotor paused and lifted up my chin with his hand. "Drink my blood." I opened my eyes and looked at him with confusion.
"As my changeling you can manage yourself on my blood. It's won't fully fill your hunger, but if it'll put an end to this." He said tracing his thumb over one my my burns.

Lotor pulled his shirt sleeve up so I could easily bit down on his arm. "Eat my Kitten." I quickly latched myself onto his arm and drank his blood. Within seconds I started to feel better as my hunger dialed down. "When was the lest time you've eaten?" Lotor asked as he tucked some of my hair behind my ear. I reluctantly pulled away to answer. "If I had to guess, a little over a week ago." I quickly returned to his arm and continued to drink. 

After I had a good amount I pulled away and wiped my face. I looked up to see Lotor smiling softly. "What?" I asked him. "Oh nothing. Well if you're done for tonight I'll be off to my quarters for some rest. I recommend you do the same." Lotor said as he helped me stand up. "Oh and I'll be disposing of these evil things as you'll no longer need them." He said holding the hand cuffs with his handkerchief over them so he didn't burn himself.

I watched as he walked away. "Lotor!" I called as he walked through the door way. "Yes?" He asked as he stopped to look back at me. "T-thanks... for helping me." I said fiddling with my thumbs. He smiled back at me "Anything for my favorite changeling."

Lotor's POV:
As soon as I closed the door to my bedroom I let out a deep sigh. I looked down at the pair of hand cuffs Kieth had been using for who knows how long. "I'm sorry it took this long to save you..." I said as I placed the cuffs in my desk drawer. I changed into my night robe and sat on my chair in front of my fireplace.

As I starred into the flames I saw Keith in them. He seemed... happy. A rare experience for him. I smiled back at him before he disappeared into the embers. I know I care for him. I care for all my changelings, but there's something about him that's different.

I stood up as started pacing my room. I held the image of his smile in my head. Why am I so hellbent on making him like me. I've never really cared what people think of me. As a vampire it's almost a must to have this mindset, yet with him.... I decided to sleep instead of thinking about it. But as I laid in my bed and starred at the Ceiling I hit me. "I'm in love with him..."
