Chapter 33: Blood Lust – Part III
The sharp fangs pierced the skin and sunk into the flesh. My parched mouth started salivating and the taste of blood spread throughout.
The frustration I felt at the depths of my heart dies down if only just a little.
My vision clears up. Senri does not seem to have realized what I am up to. I take care not to let Senri notice my actions and bite harder.
My fangs sunk into my left arm and my own blood slowly flowed into my mouth.
I felt a dull throb but it was nothing compared to blood lust I had felt a while ago.
My backup plan to resist blood lust, is to drink my own.
The pain brings back my sanity. Even ingesting my own blood seems to help with the illusion of assuaging my thirst. Although it does not really go away.
I discovered this trick when I separated from Senri one night in order to hunt for food. A beast suddenly attacked and wounded me and that is when the realization happened.
The wound itself healed right away, but when I licked the blood off my arm, though nowhere as potent as Senri’s, it was able to calm down my blood lust a little.
