Sour
The birth did not go as expected. Marty pushed to bring her child into the world while Victor held her and Todd delivered. Unfortunately, something had went sour during the birth, and Marty's life began to ebb away. She was bleeding profusely as the infant emerged. Todd lay the baby in Victor's hands as he did everything he could to quell the bleeding.
A beautiful baby daughter had been born, but Marty was suffering from major blood loss. "Marty, no!" Todd called out.
"I can't lose you now... Don't die on me!" Todd said urgently.
"Todd, you have to stop the bleeding," Victor insisted as he held the baby and stared down at Marty's pale face. She had been unconscious since the moment of their child's birth.
"How do you suggest I do that?" Todd hissed at his brother in frustration and anger. "The bleeding won't stop... and we are losing her."
"Dammit!" Victor cursed. "We have no other choice. You know what we have to do."
Todd sucked in his breath as the scent of Marty's blood assaulted his senses. He knew exactly what Victor meant. They had no other choice but to make Marty into their vampire bride or watch her die. Todd's fangs began to decend at the mere thought of what he needed to do. His hunger was intense as the scent of Marty's delicious blood teased his nostrils.
Todd pressed himself to Marty as he kissed her neck. He whispered to her gently as he caressed her hair. "Forgive me," Todd whispered before sinking his fangs into the flesh of her neck.
