So give them blood, blood. (Half-Vampire oneshot.)

[Deleted]

For as long as Thomas could remember and truly understand what a vampire was he was aware he was a half breed. Part wizard, part vampire. His parents made no attempts to hide such information from Thomas. It also made the fact that he had to consume human blood at least once a month easier to explain to the growing boy. They did tell him to not share such information with people so freely. Some of his friends at the time might not have enjoyed hearing how he had to drink blood to survive. Albeit not as much has his mother had too. Thomas accepted this, even coming to enjoy the copper like taste that came from his monthly feedings of blood. He couldn’t exactly describe it as a kid but as he got older he would say he felt more himself on the weeks just after consuming blood. Nearing the monthly point where he would consume blood there was the notable hunger within him. Something food didn’t quite satisfy. Feeling a little more agitated as the day drew near he could consume blood once more.

Being part vampire came with a few other traits as his mother explained when he was old enough. She was proud to be a vampire and wanted to instill some do that same pride in Thomas. To this day Thomas barely used any of such traits. The alluring voice of a vampire was wasted on Thomas. He barely spoke to people he wasn’t already friends with. He wasn’t trying to convince very many people of anything. The naturally athletic frame and physical ability might have been nice if he took part in such activities other than dueling. Much of what made a half vampire a half vampire was wasted on the teenage Thomas. Still he accepted who he was and found some level of pride in it he supposed.
