275 Time to tip-toe

Melanie lightly glared at Simon's suggestion, and he gave her an innocent look. He asked, "What did I do?"

"Turning them into vampires isn't really a solution. Do you think they would be happy if they found out that you bit them just so that they could come on board with being okay with vampires?" asked Melanie. 

Simon nodded, "I guess. It isn't as bad as what you humans make out to be. Rather it is quite fun. You get to eavesdrop on other people's conversation. You stay young, and you and your rate of death isn't that high unless you don't get blood to feed on." 

"What about depending on blood?" asked Melanie, and Simon leaned towards her, his face came close to her face. 

"We all need food, darling. Else we would starve die," stated Simon, and he sighed at the mention of the food. "You might not have a blood bag in the house, would you?" he asked her.
