“Sure”, Sevan answers, his tone is emotionless, but either way Eryx feels his whole body shivering, and he's about to throw up out of relief. No, wait, what.

“Did you just agree?”

“Correct”, Sevan answers with a short nod.

“Why?”

“Because what you said made sense”.

Ha. Eryx wants to laugh, is it this easy? Of course not, even if they date, raising his likeability is still hard, especially considering there's no feelings involved in this relationship.

Either way, it is a good thing for him.

“Do you even know what dating me means?” Eryx asks, still holding his breath, as if he breathes just a little it might ruin this.

“I'm not a child, of course I do”.

“Could you even kiss me?” Eryx asks, if he's lucky it'll count for the objective and he'll be-

Soft, cold, and with a subtle taste of mint. That's how Eryx's first kiss feels like. Not even a single second of hesitation, as if he's filling a checklist.

Sevan's kiss is like someone was reading a textbook on how to kiss and reenacting everything word by word. His lips touch Eryx's softly, his breath prickles his skin but it feels nice, and his lips taste slightly like toothpaste, after a few moments Sevan licks Eryx's lips slightly, as if asking for permission.

He parts his lips, raising his arms to rest then on Sevan's neck, he can feel his whole body burning as their tongues touch, dancing slowly inside their mouths. It feels cool and nice, Eryx thinks, sure, he did this for the mission, but his first kiss surely feels amazing.

A sudden cold touch on his waist makes Eryx jump, Sevan's hand brushes through Eryx's skin on top of his shirt before trailing down, pulling his shirt up and touching his skin directly. Too fast, he thinks but doesn't move, his body doesn't feel like his anymore, he feels numb, as if he's being controlled by something inside him. He opens his eyes to see Sevan's dark pink irises staring back at him as their mouths part ways, there's no way to describe how incredibly tempting is Sevan's gaze, there's still no emotion in it, but Eryx can grasp it.

Right at the back of his eyes, a burning desire reflected, perhaps it is Eryx's own feelings reflected on the man's eyes, either way, he can't help but pull the man back down, linking their mouths once again.

This time the kiss isn't tame or slow, he can't bear it, this tightness in his chest, this burn in his stomach and the tingles on his skin where Sevan is caressing. Their tongues are clashing, almost as if they're fighting instead of dancing like before, his breath is unstable and his heart is beating loudly in his chest. Sevan bites his lower lip, and with that action Eryx can't help but moan softly, so softly that he doesn't even notice he did so.

I'm hard, Eryx thinks as he lets out another soft moan when their lips part ways this time, he feels embarrassed for being so worked up while Sevan looks completely well-kept and controlled. I want to kiss again, he thinks, his gaze befalling on Sevan's swollen lips. 

Although he can't read minds, maybe Eryx's thoughts were clear in his face, because Sevan kissed him again, a gentle kiss, no tongue, just his soft lips on his. I want more, he can't avoid it, this is the first time he felt this much pleasure and he's not even high. I think I might become addicted. 

Instinct is a scary thing. Maybe it's the dehydration, his newborn skill acting up or the pleasure is getting to his head, but Eryx's fangs pop out again, piercing Sevan's lips, making his blood drip on Eryx's tongue.

Velvety, sweet, cold and incredibly delicious, that's how Sevan's blood tastes, Eryx licks the wound formed by his own fang. I want to drink more, more… He pleads inside his mind, aware the other can't hear him, the wound was too small so it stops bleeding sadly too quickly.

Their lips part ways, and while Eryx looks unkept, a mess, completely disheveled, Sevan looks collected, calm, the only proof of what they did is his swollen lips and a small wound on the side of his lips.

“You can't drink much of my blood”, Sevan says in a whisper. “But I can let you drink every now and then”, He says, as if it is something he must do for Eryx.

Drinking another vampire blood isn't an uncommon practice, usually done between lovers as it has no feeding purposes. The blood doesn't usually taste bad, but it doesn't provide any nutritional value nor serves any purpose besides sexual gratification. Eryx blushes again, not that his skin wasn't already incredibly red due to how hot he was feeling. 

Sure, sometimes lovers allow their partners to drink their blood, but it's not something they must do.

However Eryx doesn't say anything, he wants to drink Sevan's blood again.

Because that was the best tasting blood he ever had in his two days of living as a vampire.
