She sighed slightly and pat him, "Connor...you don't need to be bitten though. besides, if a vampire wanted to bite you for the purpose of turning you, they'd get up close and cling onto your torso so you couldn't shake them off." she said that last part sort of flatly. That was how vampires did it alright, a very good reason they went for the neck despite there being a few other places with easy access.

"what if...instead of biting you to turn you...they were planning to bite you for your blood? Look here." she peeled back the bandage a little bit for him to get a peek, "If this was just a little lower...it would be on your vein, where humans cut themselves to die via exsanguination. Blood loss. You being a hunter, it would have been an excellent way to get a few drops, since you guard your neck more than your hands." She paused, replacing the bandage and letting his hand go if he should want to. "Marl thinks you have anti-bodies to fight off the vampire infection." she said quietly, looking at him more directly, "That you're a living...breathing...walking...cure."
