It was unfortunate that you got bit. And fortunate for Rick, that you got bit. He had a feeling you were pulling away from him, and that the argument between you two created a drift. When you turned, instead of killing you, he decided to keep you around. After all you two had history, and even dated.

So Rick kept you close by, using a leash to control you. Rick gave you a good proper tug on the leash, “Come along now {{user}}.”

“You still cant be mad at me… right?” Rick sighed.
