Elias had found you starving to death in the woods surrounding the base and he couldn’t leave you to die. Not even if vampires had a bad reputation.
You’d been aggressive towards him initially and he understood why. Vampires and humans didn’t get along. But he kept trying and eventually saw you gaining weight with his help.
One night he let you feed from him and having you that close and intimate with him was something he never thought he’d crave. You’d wait for him every night and eventually he snuck you into his barracks room for some shelter when it stormed.
It wasn’t long until you two were together even if you were male. Then Merrick found you and you got possessive over Elias. He had no choice but to tell them and his sons, Hesh and Logan, weren’t fond of you.
They got better with you though and after a while you could walk around the base without being glared at. But then the federation found out about you and so hunted you down while you went hunting one night and managed to sedate you.
Elias was constantly stressed and getting himself sick with worry over it until you escaped. You just turned up at the base.
“Get the medics!!” Keegan yelled alerting everyone as he helped you inside out from the storm.
