14 New Eyes

The change goes well into the night Terminus starts to get tired. Not wanting to sleep on the couch he gets into his bed next to me. He places his arm around me as he falls asleep. He holds me close to him as if it was so natural. Dawn brakes and I feel different and begin to stir.

I wake in a daze, thinking to myself where am I, what happened? Looking around, I realize I am in my lord's bed and his arm is around me. As I sit up; I start to wonder what the hell happened why am I here, why is he in bed with me? I get out of the bed trying very hard not to wake him. As soon as I do, I hear a voice right behind me.

"How do you feel my sweet?" Terminus says right next to my ear very seductively. I stop dead and turn around and look at my lord. My movements are so fast that I am shocked for a moment. I must have woken him when I sat up and he stayed still to see what I would do.

"I am good my lord, I am so sorry for being in your bed" I say shly, wanting to divert my eyes but can't. I feel embarrassed and ashamed for being in such an intimate situation with him.

"Don't be I am the one who placed you there, do you remember what happened yesterday?" He asks me holding my gaze. He is smiling very pleased with the outcome. He reaches up with his right hand to stroke my cheek but stops himself.

"Oh umm, ah the change you changed me to half vampire" I say as it dawns on me what had happened. How could I forget the oath and that connection we had I still feel drawn to him.

"Yes, I did, I am glad to see that you survived" He says heading to the door, he looks at me to follow him.

We enter the study, Daisy is in there already working her best to clean and go about the daily chores without me. She isn't doing a very good job as I can see things out of place or not clean enough, I see them so clearly now after being changed.

As I enter the room, I can hear Daisy's heartbeat, I can smell her intoxicating scent of the life that flows in her veins. I can almost taste it and it makes my throat burn. I hold back from doing anything, I look at my lord and can see he is watching my every move. He sits at his desk, I follow and stand next to him.

"Daisy, I need you to prepare flowers for the annual winter solstice party. Also have the butlers take care of the tree perpetration, since you can't handle it." He says to her ordering her out as I can see he has no faith in her abilities to get things just right for the solstice party. "Oh, and go clean up my room right away."

I am shocked that he asks her to clean his room. I hope she is ready to know the secret and can handle the job. I wonder what my duties will be now if I am not a maid any more. The solstice will happen just a few days before my lords birthday. Do I still have the right to give him a gift?

"Yes, my Lord." Daisy replies. She bows and turns to leave the room and do as the Lord asks.

I look at my Lord. "what would you like me to do my Lord?" I say and my desire for blood was clearly showing in my eyes. I was resisting Daisy who's blood I could hear pumping through her veins. It sounded like pounding water in a river or waterfall. The Lord gave me a look of warning but smiled like he wanted to test the limits of me being a vampire. He turns and watches the young maid leave. I'm holding myself together but with difficulty.

"Good" my lord says turning back to look at me. The look of fear daisy had almost made me feel sorry. My red eyes lusting for the red fluid that is pumped by her strong heart must be terrifying.

"Hmm, I wonder" he says as he puts a hand on my cheek, making me look at him I look deep into his eyes. He is so handsome and gentle how did I never notice before. I look him in the eye and hold his gaze.

"A crimson yellow, your eyes show a strong will. That explains why you can resist the hunger." he says looking deep into my eyes. He then looks at a cooler on the floor that had been placed there by the butler.

"Are you hungry my darlin'?" He asks looking at me with a smile that isn't kind. It is almost menacing like he wants to take things to the limit.

"Yes, my lord," I say with a husky voice. The burning itch to drink the sweet life force called blood is driving me crazy.

"Each vampire has a blood type that is more tempting than all others. However, there are some blood types that are like poison and should be avoided. If my theory is correct, then there's one blood type that you cannot resist." he says as he opens the cooler and grabs out a thing of blood.

"I understand my lord" I say watching his every move. They all seem so much sharper now seeing the world with new eyes.

"This AB blood should be almost impossible for you to resist, people with AB blood are magnificent and talented, but their blood is so rare even in Valeria." he says as he opens the blood, letting the smell fill the small space between us.

The smell makes my mouth water. I almost want to just rip it from his hands and drink it. Such a sweet intoxicating smell. The smell is even better than Daisy's and it is getting harder to hold myself back.

"It smells wonderful my lord" I say as my throat feels like its on fire. I feel weak and I feel like I am sweating but is that even possible?

"Resistance is a game of pure bloods, but how long can you hold it my darlin'?" He says walking closer to me. The intensity of the bloods smell is getting harder to fight. Terminus sees the game has gone on long enough and puts the blood to my lips. She must be of pure blood possibly royalty but how she was human? He thinks to himself as he gives me the sweet red liquid.
