Josef had poured himself a drink. Several drinks. The freshies were trying to help him relax but he was distracted enough to dismiss them for the night.
Mick told him Beth wanted to be turned. She said she was sure. Mick asked though “How can she really be sure? How do you know if someone is vampire material?
Josef smiled. “You think too much Mick. It’s in your gut. You know when a turn is right, you know when it’s wrong.”
Mick frowned. “What about Sarah?
Josef glared at him. “The turning was right. What happened was unfortunate.
“Coraline probably thought she was right.” Mick said softly.
Josef frowned. “Unlikely.”
“Wait a minute. You’re the one who says I have to embrace my inner vampire.
“You do but I don’t think Coraline had a gut feeling about you. She desired something and made it happen. If you decide to turn Beth….the actual turning. Do it fast. Keep it short. Don’t have some long drawn out romantic evening. Kick her body into overdrive.
“Why?”
“Because that’s the one thing I did different with Sarah. She wasn’t afraid to die. There was no pain, no fear, no survival instinct. Everyone else I ever turned was terrified. Think back to the night you died, how did you feel?
“Scared out of my mind.”
“That’s what you want for Beth. Trust me.
Mick frowned “I have to think about it.”
Josef waved him off. “Fine. Let me know what you decide.
Josef sipped his scotch. Beth was a natural vampire. Mick shouldn’t have anything to worry about if he listed to his pseudo-sire. Do it fast. Keep it short.
