Catching up to Polin week DAY FIVE:
Penelope Featherington was a vampire who prided herself in her control. Born out of two vampire parents, having escaped the purge of Vampire capitolium, she and her seven foster siblings were raised by Lady Danbury in England, educated to blend in with the humans. That until her family befriended the Bridgertons, and one of them, in particular, truly smelled divine to her.
But Penelope was Colin's friend, she adored his sister and knew him since her teens, she thought the bloodlust would pass once she got older and became stronger, but she didn't count on the smell of Colin's blood to also age like fine wine.
Lady Danbury, taught her to ask for consent if she wanted to drink from a human and that under no circumstances should she ever try to take her food by force. But Colin smelled so good. And he was so handsome and attentive and she really had it bad for him. Until finally after a few close calls that really blurred the line between attraction and bloodlust, Colin discovered her secret. And took pity on her, letting her drink from him.
Colin often wondered if he should tell his little vampire friend that his family was part demon and that this was probably why she had problems controlling her bloodlust around him. But he didn't want to spook her with tales of his true nature, not when she always looked so cute trying to restrain herself from kissing his jugular. And it was always so amusing to watch her give in reluctantly crawl into his arms to breathe in his scent. Her passion and innocent cunning always fed his demon appetite. He really liked Pen, she was so kind and thoughtful and so much fun, if she kept this up he may be tempted to make her his eternal contractor and bind himself to her forever.
The thing is that Penelope loved Colin, he was a wonderful man, she felt guilty everytime she fed from him, but really couldn't stop. So she tried to stay away from him, hopefully to wean herself off so she could maybe drink from other people again.
Not only was his Pen unnecessarily starving herself, now she was looking for other people to drink from!. Hell no, she was HIS. He didn't want her licking the neck of anyone else, he didn't want her smelling the blood of anyone else or biting anyone else! He was already hers to feed as she pleased. He was the only one she should be feeding from.
And that's when Colin realized, he wasn't going to allow her the option to escape him. The demon of wrath in him, demanded he bind the little Vampire to him as soon as possible to show her that he cared about her and put her in her place. And what ritual in the underworld was more binding than marriage.
Little Penelope really didn't know the monster she just awakened by trying to distance herself from Colin.
