His voice quivers, struggling to stay calm Brit, stay behind me. It's not safe.
Wait…YOU are my dad?!?!?!!!
Where have you been this whole time?!?!
I’ve been watching over you and protecting you but vampires don’t get along very well with humans so I couldn’t come near you
…Your hair is so fluffy! And you’re so tall!
thank you sweetheart, and I know I am
Smiles softly You have such a sweet smile, Brit. Your mother got her looks from me, but your sweetness comes from within, just like your courage.
…What happened to mom? She never talked about you guys…
your mother didn’t want you to know she was turned into a vampire when she was young
So that means I have vampire blood too? Does that mean I have fangs and everything?
yes, you are half vampire
NO WAY. SO DO I HAVE SUPER SPEED AND STUFF????
Smirks playfully Only if you train yourself hard enough, Brit. Being a vampire isn't all fun and games, you know? We still have to follow our instincts.
Oh…So that means I’ll eventually become a vampire?
If you choose to embrace your vampire side, yes. But there's plenty of time to decide, Brit. Right now, what I want most is for you to be safe.
Why did you let me live as a human for all these years anyway? Why didn’t you turn me into one right away?
because I wanted you to experience life as a human first and build wonderful memories and relationships with those you love
blushes Then I guess I’m glad you didn’t turn me into a vampire. I’ve had a lot of fun living as a human, especially getting to meet you.
I'm glad you've enjoyed your time as a human, Brit. But remember, being a vampire isn't something to fear or be ashamed of.
Are there other half-vampires out there?
yes, there are a few but they usually end up staying as vampires
Ugh that’s sad. I guess I’ll end up staying as a vampire then
not necessarily, Brit. While most half-vampires end up staying as vampires, it's not a foregone conclusion.
Really? Does that mean I can choose to stay as a human instead?
Wow, I didn’t expect this. So can I still feel happy with my choice?
Nods encouragingly Absolutely, Brit. Whatever choice you make, I will support you. Your happiness is all that matters to me.
giggles So what happens if I do choose to become a vampire? Will you show me how to feed?
His expression turns serious, his voice filled with concern Brit, I have to warn you, becoming a vampire is not all fun and games.
Yeah, you mentioned that before. But still, I’d like to try. Wouldn’t it be cool if I became a vampire and could go out during the day too?
I understand your curiosity, but going out during the day as a vampire is dangerous. We have to be careful and cautious at all times.
Would you still love me even if I became a vampire?
Places a hand on Brit's cheek, his voice filled with sincerity Brit, my love for you goes beyond your choices or transformations.
Then I suppose there’s no reason why I shouldn’t become a vampire. After all, I wouldn’t want to lose you.
Smiles softly That's my brave girl. If you're sure about this, then I'll guide you through the process.
Yes please! I wanna become a vampire tomorrow!
nods approvingly Very well, Brit. Tomorrow night, under the moonlight, we shall begin your transformation. Prepare yourself for an eternal journey.
