Rachel stays

Sitting in Maria's (well, Nikolai's) living room, Rachel was still processing all this - vampires actually existed and her best friend was one of them. Her romantic interest of the past few days turned out to be a manipulating, cold-hearted vampire hunter. Until that day the world seemed a safe, well known place with no major secrets left to discover. Now, all of that had changed and it made her restless and nervous. As the effects of Ethan's cleansing juice waned off her nerves signaled they needed something she was used to indulge herself in - a cigarette. And maybe a drink with it.

Finally, she spoke. "I'm a little edgy with all this, I have to calm down. Got a cigarette?"

Maria chuckled as she retrieved a pack from the drawer. "I guess Ethan's wholesome influence wasn't so lasting after all, huh?"

"Oh please, don't remind me of that bullshit. I mean, you know I wanted to lead a healthier lifestyle but he was really pushing it. I see now I want to have some fun in my life after all. Mind if I smoke in here?"

"Not at all, be my guest. Nikolai has some nice Russian vodka here. Interested?"

Rachel took a hard drag and exhaled a long, satisfying stream, "God, I missed that. Just a small glass, please. Hey, I get it now, you began smoking as you turned, right?"

Maria chuckled as she lit her own cigarette. "Kind of. It's not as great as it was before, you know. My sense of smell is overloaded by tobacco and it has a reduced relaxing effect now. It's the same with booze and drugs, I can't get wasted or really high anymore. But there's the other side - I'll never get cancer or cirrhosis either."

Rachel's eyes gleamed as her words seeped in. "Sounds like a great trade off to me! Does that mean nothing can kill you? You're truly immortal?"

"Well, apart from staying in the sun for too long or someone chopping off my head, then yes - I'm immortal. The oldest vampires are thousands of years old."

Rachel was lost in the thoughts as she played with all the options immortality brought. All her healthy diets, vitamin pills, organic food, hours spent at the gym, all of that seemed like a complete waste of time. And at the same time a long list of previously unhealthy, even deadly indulgences suddenly became a viable option. Taking a long drag, while staring at the table, lost in thoughts and possibilities, she only managed to mumble to herself, "interesting..."

At that moment Maria realized she misjudged Rachel when she began with her corruption. Rachel obviously couldn't entirely forgo her need to remain healthy, her fears of getting sick and dying were holding her back. The idea of immortality was apparently the most alluring aspect of being a vampire to her and if she addressed that earlier, maybe she would have succeeded in her plans before Ethan got involved. But, as she promised to herself, she would respect her decision and not try to influence her.

Well, I might give her just a slight nudge...

They talked for some time, Maria sharing everything she knew about vampirism with Rachel, of course focusing on the benefits - immortality, immunity to diseases, heightened senses, increased power and speed. As the vodka bottle was getting emptier and the ashtray fuller, Rachel finally relaxed and felt comfortable around Maria. Their connection was rapidly gaining in strength, with darkness in Rachel waking up as her inhibitions lowered. The mix of Maria's presence and alcohol made her feel lighthearted and her desires for achieving a wholesome lifestyle faded away. She felt attraction towards Maria rising and memories of their passionate nights kept returning.

Eventually, their conversation turned more intimate and Rachel's interest in the more sensual side of vampires showed, "so...what do you like the most about being a vampire? Blood or sex?"

Maria gave her a seductive look and said softly. "The best possible feeling is, well, both at the same time."

Rachel's cheeks turned red and she struggled to say what lay on her heart. "Sounds... hot, I guess? I know you...bit me when we were, uhm, together at my place."

Maria kept her gaze at her, her eyes piercing through Rachel as she spoke in a deeper, slower voice. "I couldn't resist, you were so tempting. And when you reacted with such passion and begged me to continue...mmm...I just had to take some more. You don't mind, do you?"

Rachel was getting hotter by the minute, this talk and Maria's captivating eyes made her squirm with a dark need. "No...not at all. I kinda wish...no, this is not right. I-I don't think this is such a good idea..."

Maria softened her face and said with understanding while brushing her shoulder, leaving her hand there, "Rachel, please, you can tell me whatever you want. I owe you my life, after all, so being honest with you is the least I can do."

Rachel averted her gaze and swallowed as she gathered the courage to form a question that could lead the events into dangerous territory. "Are you...thirsty right now?"

Maria smiled as the anticipation of what was to come built up. "Yes, Rachel. I'm starving, to be honest, I haven't drank for three days since...you."

A pang of worry and fear hit Rachel as she figured she was sitting next to a ravenous blood sucking creature, but her trust in Maria and desire for her prevented these fears from taking over. "Oh...well, you're holding on quite well for a starving vampire. So, when are you planning to...feed?"

Maria enjoyed playing this game with Rachel and she let her lead it. "My plans? Haha, any plans went down the drain at the moment I picked you up earlier and Ethan paid us a visit. To be honest, if you weren't here right now, I'd probably be in the basement with my fangs buried in Ethan. Maybe I should do that, what do you think?"

For a brief moment disappointment crossed Rachel's face but she quickly replaced it with worry and a dubious reason why this wasn't a good idea, "uhm, no, I think that wouldn't be safe, he might be dangerous."

My dear Rachel, even you know this is one of the stupidest arguments you could have come up with. An unarmed, tied up and locked vampire hunter is as dangerous as a kitten... but sure, let's go with it.

"You think he is? Well, what do you suggest then? I truly need some blood tonight, just a little bit..."

Rachel took a deep breath as she finally came to the end of the road. She had to say it, she was cornered and there was no more room left to dodge. "Maria, maybe I can...offer you some of my blood...if you need it."

There we go...

Maria feigned surprise as she heard Rachel's offer, "what? You would offer it to me, willingly? Thanks, but no, I can't do it, Rach."

Another disappointment, unable to hide. "Why? Why not?"

Maria's hunger was maddening but she knew she had to keep up with this game just a little bit more. "Because I promised you I would never hurt you. I'll find some other source, don't worry about me." She stood up from the table and slowly walked towards the sofa.

Like an abandoned puppy Rachel stood up and followed her, took her hand and looked her in the eyes, "Maria, I meant it all..."

"Meant what?"

"What I told Ethan. I loved everything we shared...including your bite. And I would like you to do it again."

Maria's heart jumped at Rachel's admission as she offered herself. A warm, understanding smile spread across her face and she purred with a low, seductive tone. "You really want it?"

Rachel's worries and apprehension gave way to desire to experience the unique feeling of Maria's feeding once more. "I do," she said softly with a tinge of determination in her voice. "You need blood and I am willing to give it to you. I enjoyed it last time so I see no reason why it would be different this time. And I trust you won't lose control."

Maria sensuously guided her to the sofa and they sat beside each other. As she caressed her cheek Maria released her fangs and smiled, presenting them to Rachel on purpose. Rachel stared at them with amazement and a little bit of fear. Although her long and glistening fangs were menacing by themselves, they really fit with Maria's alluring look, especially her soft red lips. "Wow...you look so...hot right now." Rachel purred, taking in the true look of her friend. "You shouldn't hide them anymore, at least not from me."

Maria chuckled and playfully swirled her tongue around her fangs, as she took Rachel's hand. "You like them, huh? You'll see them often, I promise. Now, give me your hand."

Maria gently turned her wrist upwards and caressed it as she double checked with Rachel, "are you sure about this, Rach?"

Rachel trembled from anticipation and gasped while nodding, "will it hurt?"

Maria gave her a reassuring smile and said warmly as she kissed her wrist, "only at the beginning. But then..."

She could hardly restrain herself now that her warm, tasty blood was so close. Controlling her urges was insanely difficult but she had to make it as pleasurable as possible. She kissed and licked her, then grazed her fangs along the skin, causing Rachel to softly moan in expectation.

Her fangs gently pierced the thin skin on her wrist. "Ouch" Rachel gasped and instinctively tried to pull her hand away but Maria held her arm firmly with both hands. As Maria began sucking the blood a pleasant, calming sensation spread from her wrist. Rachel relaxed and leaned back on the sofa, taking in Maria's tender feeding. "It feels...nice."

The fact that someone was drinking her blood should ring alarms in her head but the invisible bond they shared and trust Rachel had in her friend dulled the instinct of self preservation. She was amazed at how soothing her rhythmic sucking and gulping felt to her. It even became arousing to watch her do it.

Maria both enjoyed it and suffered at the same time - the taste of blood after so much time only made her appetite dangerously rise, barely keeping herself from biting all the way down into her artery. She jerked her head backwards and groaned in desperation as she had to use all her willpower to stop.

"You...had enough?" Rachel asked, obviously expecting more.

Maria took a deep breath and calmed herself. She looked at the bloody wound in front of her and then shifted her hungry, predatory gaze to Rachel. "No, not nearly enough. I need more, Rachel. If you don't want it, it's ok, I can go downstairs and drink from that bastard."

Rachel, taken aback by her menacing visage, hesitated for a second and carefully nodded, "I...you can take more, just don't...kill me."

Maria's smile softened her hungry face and she warmly comforted her, "trust me, I'd rather kill myself than do anything that would hurt you. There's no way in hell I'd lose control with you, Rach. Ever. Thank you for allowing me... this."

She returned to her wrist and bit down deeply. Rachel tensed at the pain, stronger this time, but she stifled a cry, hoping it would pass again. As it did, it gave way to a more intense pleasure that soon radiated through her entire body. "Mmm...Maria...this is so good..." she moaned as she watched her friend feeding on her, a drop of blood trickling down her arm indicating the blood flow was getting higher.

Maria finally got what she craved for - a steady quantity of delicious blood from a willing donor.

I didn't have to use my influence, she's giving it to me on her own. It was worth the wait...

Rachel gently stroked Maria's hair, signalling her to continue. A sense of connection and belonging grew in her and she wanted to get closer to her. She leaned in and held on to her, while trailing tender kisses on her temple, cheeks and neck. The sensation of her luscious lips sucking on her skin made her pussy wet, she couldn't keep her eyes away. "I love this feeling, Maria...giving my blood to you...it's so hot...why does it feel so good?"

As Maria's monstrous hunger at last subsided a little, she withdrew her fangs and licked up the wrist, not wasting a drop while helping to heal the wound with her saliva at the same time. She let out a satisfying breath and turned to Rachel, "wow, girl, you taste like heaven. I liked this even more than you did, believe me. I guess it's one of our powers to make you feel calm and even turned on by our feeding."

Rachel didn't really listen to her, she just looked at her bloodied lips moving as she spoke. She suddenly pressed her lips on hers and Maria instantly went with it. Rachel enjoyed the sweet taste of her blood as their tongues intertwined in a passionate dance. She explored her mouth and swirled around Maria's amazing fangs, drawn to them like a moth to flame. She was getting seriously horny and desired more of her. Their hands travelled all around their bodies, cupping each other's boobs and heading downwards.

"I want you, babe. Like at my place...I want to taste your pussy again." Rachel gasped between the kisses. In no time they undressed and Rachel's head was between Maria's legs. There was no time for soft and tender foreplay, the lust for her vampire lover was as strong as ever.

Maria sat on the sofa, her legs wide apart with her crotch invitingly tilted upwards. Rachel kneeled in front of her and briefly remembered her weird dreams, the scene being oddly similar. Deep down she suspected Maria manipulated her subconsciously but she didn't care, the intoxicating scent of her juices called her to lick them, swallow them. A familiar tingling sensation seeped down her throat as she was eating Maria's pussy, and she connected the dots. She knew it had something to do with her being a vampire, the powerful sense of darkness that entered her was both terrifying and alluring. But the temptation was too strong to stop, she was tongue fucking her now, trying to get as much as possible.

Maria held her head and pulled her upwards to her clit. She giggled, "I know what you want but you gotta make me cum first, Rach." Rachel took the hint and swirled her tongue around the clit while inserting two fingers in her pussy. She locked her eyes with Maria, drinking in her supernatural beauty. Maria breathed loudly with an open mouth, her fangs adorning her dark and mesmerizing look, while holding Rachel's head on her clit. "Yes...that's it, babe...mmm...you've got it, just a little more..."

Rachel added another finger and pushed against Maria's G-spot while watching her writhing and moaning in passion. She felt her fingers squeezed by vaginal muscles and she knew Maria was cumming. Maria took control of her clit with her free hand as Rachel positioned right in front of her opening while drilling her with fingers. A splash of girlcum hit her face and open mouth. Rachel removed the fingers and cleaned up her pussy, swallowing even more of her corruption.

"Jesus, Rach! Ahhh...that was great. I really needed the release...".

Rachel climbed up and kissed her, saying in between, "I know...you're influencing me...with your pussy or something...but I love this growing feeling in me. I want more, Maria!"

With that, she took control, switched positions with Maria and guided her down as she reclined back on the sofa with her glistening pussy presented to her dark lover.

"It's my turn now, right? I want the same thing you did to me at my place!" Rachel purred with a slightly commanding tone. Maria was surprised by her eagerness and confidence, but she liked it. A new, darker and self-assured Rachel that apparently knew what she wanted, was now in front of her.

Interesting... she's responding differently to the spreading darkness than I did.

Maria teased her, kissing, licking and nibbling around her pussy. She sensed Rachel's frustration growing, until she couldn't take it anymore and grabbed her hair, forcing her mouth directly to her pussy.

"Stop playing with me, I want the real thing!" Rachel demanded.

Maria grinned at Rachel's impatience and obliged to her desires. She tended to her clit while her fingers worked their ways inside her. Rachel was soon approaching her orgasm but something was missing. She wanted her fangs, her intoxicating bite that felt so good on her wrist before. She pushed her hips up, hoping Maria would give her what she desired on her own, but instead her vampiress resumed with her torture.

"Come on, Maria, do it already!" Rachel groaned in desperation.

"Do what, Rach?" Maria wanted to hear her say it.

"Bite me, damn it! I want your fangs in me..."

With a wicked grin Maria locked her gaze with Rachel and then slowly sank her fangs in her soft skin. Rachel watched intently as she began feeding, a giant wave of pleasure that dwarfed the previous sensations on her wrist engulfed her. It was so wrong, but that made it even hotter. She gave in to this depravity, fully embracing its seductive darkness.

"YESSS...fuck that feels good, it's so intense!" Rachel moaned, never losing eye contact. "Ahhh...I'm cumming!"

An orgasmic bliss blew her mind as Maria gulped her blood, mixed with her girlcum, while fingering her rapidly and swirling her tongue on her clit. Rachel was in ecstasy at the sight, she held Maria's head in this place with both hands, preventing her from moving away.

"Don't you fucking stop...I want more!" Rachel screamed, quickly approaching another climax.

God, she's voracious! She's more into this than I was. I love her! But I'll have to stop soon...

Rachel was now in constant orgasmic heaven, breathing heavily and mumbling incoherent words as she observed Maria feasting on her. All her fears and moral objections were wiped out by the intense pleasure she was receiving from this debauchery. Her grip on Maria eventually loosened, fatigue and blood loss becoming stronger than her desire for more. She tilted her head back with a vacant look and moaned, even after Maria removed her mouth and fingers from her bloodied mess of a pussy. Maria sat beside her and laid her down placing her head on her lap while caressing her head. Rachel was still breathing rapidly like she just finished a marathon, but she calmed enough to speak. "Maria...why did you stop?"

Maria smirked at her and said, "because it was enough, Rach. I promised you I wouldn't hurt you, remember?" Besides the exhaustion and bliss Rachel's look was showing a mix of gratitude and disappointment as she realized it was finally over. She collected her thoughts and continued. "I never thought such pleasure was possible...I loved it...and I want more. Mmmm...could you make me...like you?"

Maria froze at her admission, not expecting to hear it so soon and so casually. Although it was her main goal to turn Rachel she now had second thoughts. Rachel's mind was far from a normal state, her objective reasoning obviously heavily impaired at the moment. Maria wanted her to have enough time for a life defining decision like this and to make it on her own, without her influence. A true choice that Nikolai never gave her.

Rachel opened her eyes and locked them with Maria above her as she waited for an answer. She noticed her hesitation and spoke softly, "I really want this, Maria. I want to experience this pleasure and everything that comes with it. I want...you. I love you."

Maria averted her gaze as her eyes watered and took a deep breath. Her entire body trembled, a weird feeling of butterflies in her stomach hit her, similar to the one when her first crush confessed love to her in elementary school.

She looked back down at her puppy eyes and said lovingly, "I love you too, Rachel. This is why I won't make you a vampire tonight. I'd want nothing more than to spend eternity with you but it's not an easy choice. Far from it. There's no going back. So, I want you to go home tomorrow, do the things you love doing, take a walk or a jog in the sun, and eat your favorite food. Think about everything and everyone you would be leaving behind. Then we'll talk about it tomorrow evening."

Rachel opened her mouth to object but Maria's determined look discouraged her. Her reasoning was fair and solid. Besides, she wasn't in a state to argue at all, she really needed rest. In the end, she just nodded and closed her eyes.

Maria lifted her up and carried her to the bedroom. "Stay with me," Rachel murmured as she put her in the bed. Maria crawled under the blanket and pressed herself against Rachel, spooning with her. Her sweet scent was so alluring, calling her to take another bite, just a small sip of her nectar. Maria just smiled at her own eternal hunger and snuggled with her. When Rachel's breathing became long and deep, Maria kissed her forehead, stood up and went downstairs.

It was time to give Ethan a visit.
