A Taste You Can't Escape

~6~

Rose: I'm sorry, what is a hybrid? Why am I just finding out that you can go feral from resisting your feeding needs, Y/N?

Henry: It's a long story...

He chuckled nervously.

Rose: I got time.

Henry: No you need to eat as well.

Rose: To hell with eating, it's not like I'll turn into a ferocious blood-hungry beast.

She realizes what she said and turns to you to see your broken reaction.

Rose: Y/N, I-I'm sorry...

You slowly slip out of Henry's embrace and run up the stairs as fast as your weak body could go. You slam your door shut and loud sobs could be heard all throughout the house.

Rose: I-I should go talk to her.

Henry: No. You need to leave and think about her situation and try to understand it before you come back to fix this shit, right now I need to make sure she gets her fill before she turns into the so-called "ferocious blood-hungry beast" you titled her as if I remember correctly.

She looks down defeated.

Rose: I-I didn't mean to...

She trails off as tears speed down her cheeks.

Henry: Sorry, for sounding rude but my only concern is Y/N right now.

Rose: I-I understand.

Henry: So please either stay down here and think about it or leave to think about it.

Rose: I'll stay here...

She whispers quietly. Henry only nodding in response and heading up the stairs to your room. He knocks.

Henry: Y/N?

You sniffle before responding in a sob.

Y/N: What?

Henry: Can I come in?

You sniffle again and wipe your tears before slowly opening the door.

Henry: Thank you. Now before we continue this conversation, you need to feed.

Y/N: Henry...

Henry: No. Stop. I insist you feed off of me or you will turn back except chances are you'd stay that forever.

Y/N: Forever?!

Henry: Okay, that's an exaggeration for your breed it would be for the next 2500 years.

You look down as more tears fall.

Henry: Princess?

You lookup.

Henry: What are you thinking right now?

Y/N: Why me? Why do I have to be the bloodthirsty monster? Why did I even have to be born?

Henry: I can't answer any of those questions for you baby girl, I can, however, stay by your side and help you. If you let me.

Y/N: How are you not afraid of me?

You ask through tears as you meet his gaze and for a moment he almost sheds a tear himself seeing how hurt and broken you are.

Henry: I- I don't know... but I'm not if anything I'm even more interested than I've ever been.

Y/N: Why?

Henry: You're the first-ever vampire that has the abilities you do.

Y/N: Which is exactly why I'm curious you haven't taken me in for testing or whatever you vampire rebels do.
