Rei became tempted to try out their technique. He had an inkling that control wasn't all that mattered for the test. At least, not this type of control.
With one move, he dashed in the air and grabbed a female elf. She looked at him defiantly as if not being scared by his appearance.
Rei smiled when he noticed this. It was better this way. The calmer they were, the better it would turn out for them.
He gently laid her on the cold floor and moved his head toward her neck. That was always the best position for vampires.
His grey eyes glowed fully red as he could feel his close proximity to the female elf. He could feel the flow of her blood and the warmth of her tender skin.
Elves were always beautiful and seeing one laid bare before his eyes was too much for him. His hunger for blood and his carnal lust almost overtook him.
He swiftly rolled away and used his sharp nails to brutalize his palms. As his red blood dripped, he found himself in control of his body again.
Rei moved back to the female elf and repeated his actions. This time he was going to be in control.
He stared at her blue eyes and smiled at her gently. He then dived his head at her neck and softly bit it. The process was smooth and subtle. The way he sucked out blood from her body was also very efficient. He made sure not to tear her flesh.
It seemed that the female elf couldn't keep her composure as she moaned in pleasure.
Her face turned pale as her blood was continuously drained from her body. In the midsts of his feast, Rei noticed she was slowly losing too much blood. He forced himself to stop and caressed her cheek with his cold fingertips. If he went on, he might kill her. After a while, he crossed his legs and sat beside her.
His whole action might have looked sensual but that was just him being careful with his prey. He knew that the preys weren't as innocent as they looked.
For them to be used by vampires in the present times, it must mean that they were criminals caught by the Morgens. This was the only way the forces of Tascar would find no offense with what the Morgens were using them for.
He grabbed her small left hand and licked her index finger. He then bit at it and sucked a small portion of her blood. He made sure to measure the amount of blood he was taking.
In the midst of his vile actions, Rei shockingly found calmness within himself. He had thought that he might have struggled to hold his desires but it wasn't the case. He had perfect control of his actions. That was the only way he was able to not suck all the blood out of the elf.
This brought a smile to his face, "This is obviously what they were looking for. The ability to embrace your desires. After all, it is ultimately our deepest desire. It will be against the vampire code to chain that."
As Rei smiled vilely, he noticed that the female elf kept looking at him. He could read her clearly. She wanted him to continue. Part of her was also curious about him.
Rei asked her after a while, "What is your name?"
He didn't receive a single response from the elf. Yet, he wasn't offended. It even felt normal to him.
Reo held her index finger again and nibbed at it, enjoying the small amount of elvish blood that flowed to his mouth.
A lithe voice said to him, "...Kaylin. My name is Kaylin!"
It belonged to the elf beside him.
"Kaylin, huh? Thank you for helping me understand," smiled Rei.
His words made the elf confused but he just smiled it off. He was thanking her for being his partner. If she had been scared and panicked while he sucked her blood, things would have turned out another way.
All in all, she played a part in his enlightenment on vampiric desires.
Rei dragged her body to his arms as she didn't resist, "Just like vampires, elves are said to possess a fast healing factor. Shall we test it out?"
A black light twinkled in his eyes as he took his time to lick the nape of her neck. He then went on to moisturize the side of her neck which he picked to be his spot.
His fangs grew and he bit her once again. This time he was more experienced. He didn't rush like before.
The key was patience. Starving yourself and then feeding. The combination of both would bring about a profound pleasure.
Rei quickly stopped when he noticed she was almost out of blood. He held her in his arms, feeling her body warmth, as he stared at the blood moon in the sky.
It was the perfect moment for stuff like this. The elf curiously looked at him and followed his eyes. She realized where he was looking at and mimicked him. The two of them just sat there and stared ambiguously at the blood moon.
It was unknown how long it had been since they had begun staring.
A thin clap was heard by all and they focused on the origin of the sound.
It was Izora Vrers, "I now declare the end of the baptism. Please stop what you are doing."
When she noticed some vampires were still drinking blood, she snapped her fingers and they collapsed.
"While you were enjoying your feast, the guests and I were evaluating. We shall now announce the names of those that had successfully passed the test."
"Malachi Lorcan. Kragen Faust. Dawn Mezmarat. Rhazien Az Morgen!..."
Rei smiled as his name was announced. He had achieved what he wanted…...brilliantly at that. He was proud of that.
Rei stayed in his position until the preys were called by the maids to return. He gave one last glance at Kaylin and focused on Izora.
She was telling the young vampires that hadn't had their names announced to depart.
"Now, shall we continue. We shall begin with the celebration. The real baptism!"
