Summary
Once the Upside Down is sealed, Eddie’s hunger is entirely his own, sharp edges smoothing into something heavier, entirely human in its greed. Heat pools in his icy veins, and he starts to test it, just a little, never one to leave interesting things alone. There’s an undeniable undercurrent of lust to the whole thing, especially when he lets his grip linger, draws the moment out, murmurs Steve’s name and bites his bicep instead, starts feeding from his neck and never goes back, dreams about sinking his fangs into the meat of Steve’s thighs, of being completely surrounded by his warmth.
He learns to drink more slowly, to savor the way Steve clings to him, and is surprised when Steve crawls into Eddie’s lap one night and doesn’t ever offer his wrist again. Eddie delights in how he softens the more he takes, the more Steve offers, like being needed is a balm instead of a burden.
It’s intoxicating in a way blood alone never could be.
It’s how Steve acts in the aftermath, though — how he lingers, how dazed his eyes are, the softening of his shoulders — that keeps Eddie coming back for more.
OR: Eddie needs blood to survive. Steve loves to volunteer.
