12 The Blood Oath

As he looks at me with his fangs poised and ready to bite, he listens to my answer to his last question. He has almost become a wild creature driven by passion and desire. He looks at me hungry, somewhat for my blood or at least in part I am not sure what the other part could be. I have never seen him this way before. I feel so desired right now I have never felt this before is this really how one feels when a vampire wants to drink their blood or is this more? I pass it off as this just has to be the way it is when they are turning someone, its not like I can really know for sure as this is the first time I have ever been in this kind of situation.

"Yes, I have my lord" I say as my heart races with excitement but also just a small amount of fear. Terminus looks at me a quick look of slight worry crosses his face. I know he is worried that I will not survive this, but I have made my choice and I will not waver.

"And …." He prompts me to speak further there is a seductive purr to his voice.

"I wish to stand by you for as long as you will have me, but a human life is short and weak, and I wish it be much longer" I say with all my heart as it is the truth.

"So, you have decided to become, a monster a child of the night living off the blood of others and you know the risks of your choice" He says with just a hint of worry. Desire is laced heavily in his voice as well he is finding it harder and harder to hold himself back.

"My lord I wish to be a vampire, do you not want me?" I say with panic laced heavily in my voice almost on the verge of tears. I search his face for some kind of hint as to what he is getting at.

"it's not that my darlin' have you made peace with your previous life?" he purrs taking a step back to look me up and down, the hunger for my blood growing as his eyes start to change to red.

"Yes" I say its almost a whisper as I can feel his want and need for my blood. I watch him looking at me I almost feel naked like he sees right through me.

"What about the young new maid, whom you have befriended?" He asks as he walks around me reading the situation. I can feel his eyes on me tracing my every curve it is embarrassing as well as stimulating to feel his want for more than blood.

"She has a fondness for you my Lord that should serve you well, she has the potential to be a great maid." I say staying still watching the lord do his little dance. He walks closer to me and in the blink of an eye he runs his fingers down my cheek, then my neck. He stops and offers me his hand. I blush the moment his finger brush my face I can't help it as it is such a loving gentle touch.

"Here take, my hand" he says, ``I take his hand and he leads me to the small table by the window where a glass of water sits.

"This is what the Vampire call a Blood Oath, you wish to become a night child then you have to pay the consequences. It will be less painful if you are under my control and protection. In return for me doing this you will serve me until I have no more need of you. It is simple" he says as he lays the knife, he had given me down next to the glass.

When did he take it back? I do not remember him taking it. I tend to hide it in a strap on my thigh under my skirt. Is the spell of a vampire who is getting ready to drink your blood truly so powerful that you lose all scenes to the world? I had no idea that I could be so mesmerized by him and the pull that I would not have noticed his hand on my thigh.

"I will give you any and all you ask of my Lord I am yours" I say with determination and shock that I just said that I am his. I can feel my cheeks burning with my blush.

Terminus raises his hand over the glass his hand is bleeding. When did he do that I think, he lets the blood drip into the glass. He looks at me locking eyes.

"Now it is your turn …. If this truly is what you want then accept the Oath" He says as he hands me my knife, I take it and look at the blade.

"Yes, this is what I want" I say as I follow the same steps. I slice my palm quickly and let the blood drip into the glass. He grabs my hand and kisses and licks the wound to seal it and stop the bleeding. A wicked smile crosses his face as he gets the first taste of my blood. With that he eyes begin to burn red with the need to drink more of my blood.

"Your blood is sweet like honey, reminds me of sunshine now drink the glass to complete the bond" He whispers in my ear sending shivers down my back.

He leaves his hand at my waist as I drink the glass of water and blood. I drink it in one gulp as I am excited and a little scared all at the same time. I feel his want and need more than ever, and the oath is made. Looking up into his eyes they seem to glow red I can't take my eyes off his. This moment is so sensual that I am losing my own composure I feel as if I want him as much as he wants my blood.
