Chapter 7: Kaya Aiesling (1)
The answer to the question seemed like a given. Especially since that was what Arlette had technically offered by feeding him in the first place, but this non-negotiable request from Caius went beyond just making a cut and giving him a few drops of blood.
Judging by what just happened, Arlette could tell that if she agreed, there would be more sensual grabs involved. That Caius would actively touch her any time he wanted to feed before eventually sinking his fangs into parts of her body to draw her blood from.
But why...?
"What’s your ’Evolution Trigger’?" She asked suddenly.
Caius paused and then smiled lightly as he asked,
"You know about that?"
Arlette rolled her eyes,
"Of course I do. You’re not the first Vampire I’ve met," she said easily, "So what is it?"
Caius smiled knowingly,
"I think you’ve guessed it."
Arlette paused and then nodded. She had indeed guessed it. For a Vampire, nothing is more important than thirst besides the desire to make the blood they feed on sweeter and stronger which requires inciting their evolution triggers in their victims. If Caius could resist the taste and smell of her blood to spend time ’exciting’ her, that had to have been his trigger.
