Chapter 13: A dose of love!

I put Blake's address into the GPS and left from there.

I don't know why, but the top vampires lived in mansions. And Blake was no different.

I stopped the car in front. I got out of the vehicle, I noticed that I was shaking! I was shaking! Why? Afraid of being bitten? No! I had already gotten used to the world of vampires. But one thing was my preppy friends from the sorority, another was an old vampire, who I barely knew.

I sighed deeply and headed towards the door, until I heard the sound of a motorcycle, a biker stopped right behind me. I was scared, was it Blake? In broad daylight? Was it the biker 33? It wasn't anyone and it wasn't the Ryan guy I had seen that night.

“Hello, I’ve seen you with Ashley,” he said to me. I was relieved to see a familiar face.

“Oh, yes, I’m part of the Pink Flavored Drops Sorority!” I said, feeling awkward.

“I think that name is horrible!” he declared without mercy.

“It’s for boys, it doesn’t make sense, but for us preppy girls, it has some charm.”

“And you, what are you doing here?”

“Ashley ‘lent’ me to Blake to suck me!” How awful I ended up saying. “I mean… suck my blood! I heard he had an accident.”

“That's right! Blake is irresponsible. It's dangerous for him to be walking around during the day, but he's very determined. He wanted to avenge our dead friends. He went out to capture some Blades and 33 almost caught him.”

“Who is this biker 33?!”

Ryan looked at me and laughed at something particularly funny to him and finally replied:

“Nobody knows. He appears out of nowhere, with a helmet with these numbers around it, attacks us and just as he appears, he disappears out of nowhere. Blake has a mortal hatred for him.”

When suddenly another guy opened the door to the mansion. He looked at Ryan and nodded. They both knew each other. The man at the door said to me:

“Are you Erica Mina?!”

“Yes, it’s me!”

“Blake, I’m waiting for you!”

Ryan looked at me and said, “Come on, he needs pink flavored blood.”

I laughed at his joke, but when he turned his back on me he said:

“Give my regards to my sister at the Pink Mansion, tell her that everything is going well for me here.”

“Your sister is part of our sorority? How cool! What’s her name that I don’t know yet?!”

Ryan put the helmet on his head and said,

“Ashley Simpson! You must know her!”

I was surprised.

“You’re Ashley’s brother?!”

“Unfortunately, yes!” He revved the bike and drove off. I watched him disappear, then I turned around and entered the house.

On the outside it was bright and white, to its owner's taste, but inside it was dark, not only because of the lack of windows, but everything was lit by candles!

Despite the white walls, which turned yellow in the candlelight, the floor was made of black marble.

The man who opened the door led me through the corridors, and along the way I could see several old paintings, some of them huge.

Blake really had a taste for something very vintage.

And speaking of the owner…

As we walked down the hallways, voices began to emerge. There was laughter and someone speaking loudly enough to echo. Most of the voices were male, which made my heart pound.

Then we got to the end of a hallway and there were very wide double doors open and inside I could see, a huge swimming pool!

An indoor pool, inside the mansion.

It was quite long, I would estimate about ten meters from one end to the other. On the other side, there was a group of young men and women, many in bathing suits, but they were black. Some were standing, others sitting on the edge of the pool, and some were swimming. There were nine people in total.

Towards the entrance, but with my back to it, I recognised that white hair, his body was submerged in the water, his elbows were on the edge of the pool, there was a glass of white wine that he was drinking. I didn't know why, but he was far away from the others.

We arrived right behind him, the man who drove there introduced me:

“The lady is here, Mr. Blake!”

He turned around and saw me.

“Welcome to my home, Erica Mina!”

He raised his glass in greeting at my arrival. Despite his young body, his attitude was that of an old man.

“Ashley told me that you needed fresh blood, so she sent me to serve you.”

Serve you? What I was trying to say here, thank goodness I didn't say at the time that he could suck me off...

“Thank you for helping me! Now you can take off your clothes!”

I was scared!

“Take off your clothes?!”

“Yes! The pool has hot water, which will help warm your blood! And I like hot blood, just like many people like mulled wine.”

I wasn't prepared to take my clothes off in front of Blake, let alone with his friends on the other side of the pool watching.

“I thought it was just to stick a needle in. I didn't bring a swimming costume.”

“ You can be naked if you want! I'm naked too!”

I became even more shaky. But I couldn't fail in the task Ashley had entrusted to me. So I took a deep breath and said:

“Can I just stay in my underwear?”

“Whatever!” He said, ignoring my shyness and drinking another glass of wine.

I sighed deeply and overcame my shyness, removing my clothes. I was left only in my panties and bra.

Some laughter was heard from the other side of the pool, but I ignored it.

I got into the water, and it was really hot. It was a heat that burned the skin, but there was a certain pleasure in feeling it.

“Would you like a glass of wine?”

“No! I’ve had too much to drink last night.”

“Ashley assured me that you don’t do drugs!”

“Oh! Don’t worry, I don’t do drugs!”

“I will know if I am deceiving myself. When I drink blood, I can taste a person. I can tell if they are happy or sad, if they are worried, if they are lying!”

“Wow! Then taste my blood and you will find out.”

Blake looked me in the eye and laughed. Then he snapped his fingers. One of the guys, covered in tattoos, got out of the pool and came toward us, blood dripping down his body.

“Kaal, get the needles, I'm going to transfuse her blood for myself.”

“Yes, Blake!”

Kaal went out to get the needles. I stayed enjoying the warm water, and noticed again that none of the people on the other side of the pool were coming towards us, some were swimming in the warm water, but they only went as far as the middle of the pool.

“Why are your people all on the other side? Don’t they want to join us?”

Blake looked at them with some contempt, shook his wine glass and answered me:

“I like their company, but I demand certain limits, I don't like being in the same water that passed through their bodies. That's why they stay on the other side and I stay here.”

“But the water here is the same as there!”

“The hot water kills their moans. But I still don’t like human contact.”

I moved away from him a little. He smiled.

“Calm down, you’re different! I’m going to drink your blood, the contact between us is important.”

I smiled.
