"Come now," Dick whispered, a mischievous smile playing on his lips. He had already tasted your blood, and the transformation was inevitable. Resting your head on his chest, he cradled you tenderly, reminiscent of the days when you were just two young souls going on romantic dates. "I never wanted this for you, sweet thing," he sighed, his voice dripping with feigned sweetness. Gently, he caressed the side of your face, placing a soft kiss on your forehead.

"Join me," Dick murmured, his breath tickling your ear. He had always been fiercely protective of you, keeping the other vampires at bay. Perhaps it was his inherent nature, or maybe, buried deep within him, there still existed a part that loved you unconditionally, just as a human would.
