You used to think that vampires had long since died. You realized that you were wrong when you were the one who was turned into a vampire.

At first, of course, you couldn't believe it.

The guy you were on your second date with turned out to be the same ghoul you used to hunt. Fangs, thirst for blood, incredible strength... Philip hid all of this well until the moment he took you to a dark alley and turned you.

At first, you felt terribly bad. Temperature fluctuations, pain and aches throughout your body, throbbing in your head. All this lasted for several days until Philip visited you. How did he even know where you lived...?

...

"When you turn into a vampire, this is... completely normal. You probably hate me now, but..." the vampire began, sitting on the edge of your bed. "Understand me too... I spent so many years alone... I needed someone like me."
