A Guide to Raising a Little Human [Vampire Clan]

"But I can't... I can't be like you, arrogantly considering myself a superior being to other humans."

"I'm human too..."

Chu Lin couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat: "My mother was human, my father was human, and my brothers and sisters could all be what you call...humans without intelligence."

Chu Lin wiped away her tears, her voice choked with emotion.

"Alpha, I know you have your reasons, but I can't pretend I don't know, I can't lie to myself..."

"I can't... I don't understand why, why is the world like this..."

Alpha didn't know how to answer the question. He just felt heartbroken seeing Chu Lin crying so pitifully.

He wanted to hug Chu Lin, but Chu Lin squatted down, leaned against the corner of the table, and started sobbing while hugging her knees.

Alpha also squatted down and patted his head.

"Don't cry...don't be sad, okay? I misspoke, I'm sorry."

As Alpha spoke, she felt a pang of sadness in her heart and couldn't help but ask, "But I also need to survive... Do you want me to die?"

When Alpha asked this question, he had considered that the other party might remain silent, or say that he deserved to die.

Unexpectedly, Chu Lin responded almost immediately:

"don't want……"

Alpha felt a little better after that.

Thankfully, it wasn't the kind of reaction that goes, "I'm going to kill you to avenge my kind."

Thankfully, I still care about him a little bit.

It could also be that they're afraid of losing their long-term meal ticket.

Alpha thought to himself with a touch of self-mockery.

Chu Lin suddenly reached out and grabbed Alpha's arm, then looked up.

His eyes were red, as was his nose. His tear-filled eyes looked at him, and he said in a pitiful voice—

"Then eat me..."

Alpha was stunned.

Eh?

Chu Lin gripped his arm tighter, her tone gradually hardening: "You can drink my blood... Didn't you say before that you had this idea?"

That was an excuse when there was no other way...

Alpha stammered, "I...I'm not..."

Chu Lin moved closer, his eyes filled with a kind of obsession and madness that he himself was unaware of.

"Can't I? Why can't I? I'm human too..."

Alpha was thrown off balance by the pressure and went from a half-squatting position to sitting on the ground with his knees bent.

Chu Lin slowly crawled towards him and pressed down on him.

"Please. Drink my blood..."

Chu Lin's dark pupils reflected a kind of moist light, light and airy, making it impossible to discern his emotions.

"Please eat me."

Alpha stared at him blankly.

This guy is practically... like he's deliberately playing the role of food...

It was as if they were deliberately trying to provoke his guilt.

but……

Why?

Chu Lin sobbed slightly, then said matter-of-factly, "If in your eyes, humans need to donate blood to obtain food... then aren't I the same way..."

Alpha couldn't help but say, "You don't need to..."

Chu Lin retorted, "Is it because I've already found another purpose? Do you think all I need to do is sleep with you?"

Alpha suddenly felt a little guilty.

"No...of course not...how could you think that? I didn't give you food because I wanted to sleep with you...I didn't."

Chu Lin didn't dwell on that point, but continued, "Yes, that's right, then come and drink my blood."

Alpha slowly shook his head.

Chu Lin looked at Alpha and said, word by word:

"Otherwise, I'll find a way to commit suicide."

Alpha's pupils dilated as he looked at Chu Lin with disbelief.

Why?

Chu Lin didn't explain, but simply said, "You don't have to worry about me. I'll die anyway if you don't."

Alpha reached out and touched him: "Ah Lin, I haven't abandoned you... and you are my partner now, I love you very much."

Chu Lin brushed his hand away and murmured, "I belong to you... Anyway, I can only live for a few decades. You can define me as whatever you want—a pet, a partner, a toy to keep—anything... You can kill me if you want."

"You can have pity on me, give me charity, and it's my fault if I don't obey... because you gave me my life... because without you, I would die."

Alpha felt that Chu Lin was in a really bad mood, so she said softly, "Baby, you're not in a good mood right now, so please don't talk, okay?"

As Alpha stood up, Chu Lin almost fell off Alpha's body, but fortunately Alpha caught him around the waist, almost lifting him halfway in the air.

Once Alpha regained his footing, he grabbed Chu Lin's wrist and pulled him up, intending to take him away from there.

However, this action seemed to provoke Chu Lin.

Chu Lin tried to break free from Alpha's grasp.

"Let me go... let me go..."

Alpha didn't let go, but instead dragged him forcefully towards the living room.

Chu Lin's voice grew increasingly agitated.

"Let me go! I don't want to eat, I don't want to sleep, let me go... Can't you hear me?"

"Was my request wrong?!"

Why won't you listen to me?!

Just as Alpha pressed Chu Lin down onto the sofa, Chu Lin stood up, so Alpha had to use some force to make him sit down again.

"Can you sit down for a bit, baby?"

"don't want."

Chu Lin saw his backpack on the other side of the sofa and, thinking there was a knife inside, was about to take it when Alpha realized this and stopped him from moving.

Alpha reassured her, "Wait a moment..."

Chu Lin saw through his actions and struggled, saying, "You want to give me medicine? Or an injection... No, I don't want to eat it... Let me go..."

Alpha really didn't dare to let go, so he grabbed Chu Lin's wrist with one hand and used the other to rummage through the medicine box in the drawer.

He received an injection of tranquilizers.

Chu Lin saw the syringe he was holding and struggled even more fiercely.

"What are you trying to do?!"

Alpha said softly, "Rest for a while, take a nap, you'll be fine after a nap... okay?"

"No, no... I don't want a shot! I don't want to! Let me go!! I don't want a shot!"

"No, no..."

Chu Lin struggled incessantly, but ultimately failed to resist and was given a needle prick in the arm by Alpha.

As the medicine was slowly administered, Chu Lin gradually lost his strength and was held in Alpha's arms.

Chu Lin finally said, his voice choked with emotion.

"I don't want your pity... Don't try to hold me hostage by 'raising me'..."

You might as well... ignore me.

Alpha held the unconscious Chu Lin, feeling as if most of his strength had been drained away as well.
