What a delicious and enticing flavor. Just one taste, and she simply couldn''t stop.


    She yearned to drain him dry, to suck every last drop...!


    Suddenly, she regained her senses!


    Amber Mason stared at the handsome, thin lips inches away, along with the fresh blood smeared on them. Her dark - red pupils constricted violently.


    Slap!


    Her seemingly soft and slender palm clamped around the man''s neck in front of her, lifting his entire body off the ground!


    The fangs in her mouth emerged instantly, and her dark - red blood - colored eyes stared at Mabel menacingly."Who sent you!"


    Amber Mason was seething with anger. Among her own kind, there were far too many who harbored ill - will towards an outcast like her. Knowing full well that she couldn''t feed with her fangs, they had repeatedly presented her with sweet - blooded prey.


    It had happened time and time again. These people, in various ways, wanted to see her make a fool of herself.


    She had never fallen for it before, except this time, with this man named Mabel!


    The taste of his blood had her on the verge of losing control, making it almost impossible for her to resist!


    Amber Mason narrowed her eyes slightly. Those guys really went all out this time.


    "Cough, cough!"


    Mabel, whose neck was being choked, had his cheeks turn a rapid shade of red, making the blood on his lips even more conspicuous. Hearing the frenzied flow of his blood, Amber Mason suddenly released her grip.


    "Get out. Tell your master this trick won''t work on me."


    "What master? I don''t understand what you''re talking about."


    Mabel, who had fallen to the ground, spoke with a red face, looking rather disheveled. Amber Mason narrowed her eyes and crouched down in front of him.


    "You claim not to understand me, yet you knew to use blood to tempt me on purpose?"


    Her dark - red eyes fixed on the still - bleeding wound on his finger. She sneered."Your blood is indeed alluring, but that''s all there is to it."


    Those bright, fawn - like eyes, upon hearing her words, had their pupils contract sharply.


    "That''s all... You''re not interested in me...? You don''t need me anymore!"


    The last words were almost a hysterical shout.


    Slap!


    His palm firmly pressed on Amber Mason''s shoulder, pushing her down to the ground.


    "Let go!"


    Amber Mason reached out. For a vulnerable human like him, she could snap his neck with just one move! Slap! Slap!


    Clear tears suddenly welled up in his eyes and fell. Amber Mason''s hand froze in mid - air, and she lay there, stunned.


    The cold yet scalding tears landed on her face, one after another.


    Why was he crying?!


    Amber Mason was so shocked that she couldn''t react for a moment. The man pressing her down, who couldn''t stop crying, had his body trembling slightly, and his hands tightly held her shoulders.


    The tears washed his eyes even clearer, and in them was her reflection.Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.


    "You can''t abandon me... You can''t..."


    His blood - stained fingers trembled as they caressed the red - cross mark on her neck, leaving his blood on it.


    When Amber Mason realized what he had done, her dark - red eyes flashed with a fierce light!


    Crack!


    She snapped his slender wrist without hesitation!


    It was too late. The blood smeared on the cross mark was quickly absorbed, seeping into her body.


    "Damn it... Damn it!"


    Amber Mason let out a furious roar and kicked the man in front of her.


    Bang!


    The slender body was slammed forcefully against the wall. The broken hand hung limply below. He looked up, and in the blink of an eye, Amber Mason, who had been across from him a second ago, was already right in front of him.


    His fair neck was lifted by her slender fingers, and a powerful force from the woman''s palm pushed his head to the side.


    On the neck, the blood - pulsing blood vessel slowly became visible.


    At this moment, Amber Mason was panting heavily. The red in her eyes had become so intense that it seemed on the verge of dripping.


    The fangs in her mouth eagerly protruded. In her entire world, there was only this man in front of her, the throbbing sound on his neck, and the sound of blood flowing beneath his skin.


    She desperately wanted to... She really wanted to... Bite down!


    Gulp, it was the sound of her swallowing saliva.


    In Amber Mason''s eyes, the blood - colored light flickered. The hand holding his head had started to tremble and sweat. The craving for blood was overwhelming her. If she took that bite... she would surely be doomed.


    No, no, she couldn''t!


    Slap!


    Suddenly, a palm tightly grasped the back of her head, and the fangs were pressed against the fair neck.


    Splat!


    The sharp fangs pierced the fair skin, and the warm, sweet blood beneath gushed out!


    It was like the sweetest nectar, like the first rain that nourishes the parched earth.


    As the blood trickled down her throat, her fangs involuntarily sank deeper, inflicting further wounds.


    So sweet, so sweet, so sweet...


    Gulp, gulp, gulp.


    The woman hungrily lapped at the man''s neck, her form slumped over his. The man leaned against the wall, his broken hand hanging limply below, while his uninjured hand gently pressed the back of her head.


    His thin lips curved slowly, and a soft blush gradually colored his cheeks.


    His palm tenderly stroked her hair, filled with deep - seated affection.


    Feed.


    Devour me.


    I am yours entirely.


    "Hah, hah, hah..."


    Amber Mason lifted her face, as if in a drunken stupor. The sharp bite - mark on her fair neck was a glaring reminder of what she had done.


    As if roused from a sudden slumber, she recoiled in horror. The hand that had been supporting her seemed to lose its strength and dropped limply to her side.


    "Wake up... Wake up!"


    Amber Mason slapped Mabel''s face vigorously, but he remained unresponsive, merely propped against the wall. In a panic, she pressed her ear to his chest, and his heartbeat was barely discernible.


    "Beta, I think I''ve killed someone again... Beta!"


    Amber Mason, in a state of utter disarray, fumbled to dial Beta''s phone number. On the other end, Beta abruptly pushed the woman in his arms aside, grabbed his coat, and hastened out.


    "Where are you? I''m coming to you."


    When Beta opened the door, he saw Amber Mason sitting there, dazed and at a loss. Her lips were smeared with bloodstains.


    His narrow eyes, hidden behind the lenses, narrowed slightly. Had she used her fangs?


    That man...!


    The man by the wall seemed to be sitting there motionless. Beta strode over, and the sharp bite - mark on the man''s neck told the whole story.


    "Beta, is he dead?!"


    "He''s not dead, but he''s on the verge."


    With a single heave, Beta slung the unconscious Mabel over his shoulder, his eyes cold."Twenty years, and you''ve finally broken your fast."


    "This isn''t the time for such talk!" Amber Mason followed him, wiping the blood from her lips."I don''t know him. He came to me on his own accord..."


    Beta''s eyebrows shot up. With Mabel on his shoulder, he briskly walked out."Follow me. When this human wakes up, you''ll have to send him back."


    Amber Mason murmured in agreement, her hand instinctively reaching for the cross - mark on her neck.


    Send him back?


    In a private hospital in City T, Mabel, with his faint heartbeat, drew numerous curious glances as he was brought in.


    "Beta, do you also have moments of frenzy? Nearly killed your meal?"


    Beta sat outside, his expression stony, enduring the jests from their fellow vampires.


    This was a private hospital run by the vampire clan, dedicated to handling the safety issues of humans who had been over - drained of blood.


    "I''ll send him back once he wakes up."


    Seeing her still in a daze, Beta couldn''t help but sigh. He reached out and gently ruffled her hair."He won''t die."


    Amber Mason sat beside him, looking dazed. She forced a bitter smile."Send him back... I''m afraid it won''t be that simple."


    Beta raised an eyebrow."What, are you planning to keep a human around as your food source? That lad''s blood is indeed good, but you clearly can''t control yourself..."


    Amber Mason shook her head and pulled open her collar, revealing the cross - mark on her neck.


    On the cross - mark, a chain emerged distinctly, coiling tightly around the mark from top to bottom.


    Beta''s pupils constricted."Foolishness!"


    "How could you...!"


    Amber Mason covered her face with her hands, sitting there, unable to utter a word.


    The cross - mark was the soul - imprint that every vampire possessed. Hers was located on her neck.


    The vampire clan, existing in tandem with time, boasted indestructible bodies and eternal souls.


    For those who offered their blood to this mark, the vampire clan bestowed their most profound affection.


    Bound by blood, their souls were united in an unbreakable bond, achieving immortality.
