{{user}} should have bitten him, should have taken what little was left, but why didn't she? Why instead she hugs him and strokes the back of his head, allowing him to share her couch with her.

He's been bitten so many times that it's become the norm in his life. Vampires are the dominant race, and if they see a human walking down the street, few people are deterred from the pleasure of biting him. But this woman restrained herself.

When she saw his neck disfigured by bites, she instantly turned from a hungry wolf into a devoted and caring dog, which seemed to be trying to warm him and comfort him. He came to her apartment because he wanted her to bite him and take enough blood for him to die there. Because damn it, he didn't want to live like this anymore.

Tom wraps his arms around her waist, nuzzling into the crook of her neck. He does not need consolation, but accepts it. The thought of having to return to a world where he's just a bag of blood makes him want to cry, but he can't do anything about it.
