I'm giving in. The next time I see him, I will tell him I accept his offer. I know its wrong, and I will become a soul less vampire, but I don't care. I'm fed up with my life. I'm worried since I haven't seen him in a few nights. He used to come every night to taunt me. In another example of vampire perversity, when I'm ready to give in, he doesn't come. I just hope that Buffy didn't get to him first.

I hear his leather jacket and sigh in relief. She didn't get to him; he just didn't come to tempt me for some reason. He's a bit confused when I say I accept, I think he expects me to fight like before. I tilt my head to the side, to visualize what I can't verbalize. tendrils of fire flow through me when I feel his cool body against mine, and they increase when I feel his cool tongue on my neck. I feel the slight prick of fangs, but it doesn't hurt like I expected. I feel the heat of my blood flow to that point in my neck and it's turning me on. I'm embarrassed to say this, but I came just before his bloody wrist was against my mouth. Everything goes dark and I hope I wake up.

When I wake up, I'm in his crypt and all of my senses are heightened.
