** And Season 5 brings us Eric's 'Sister', who is naked with him within ten minutes of being shown on screen. And is introduced with them making out.

* Sylas and Delilah Briarwood from ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfVoxMachina'' are an interesting variation on this trope: They were already [[UnholyMatrimony husband and wife]], and she turned him into a vampire [[EmergencyTransformation to keep him 'alive' when he was terminally ill]]. However, Delilah is ''not'' a vampire herself - she's a wizard who achieved this transformation through a dark, forgotten ritual [[spoiler: and the help of the otherworldly spirit of a long-dead necromancer]] - and while they do plan to be together "forever", Sylas doesn't ever turn her. WordOfGod says that vampires had basically been extinct in the [[WebVideo/CriticalRole (original live-play ttRPG webshow's)]] setting until Delilah was given the secret knowledge of how to create one ''without'' the blood of a siring vampire, so it's possible that they simply don't know [[spoiler: that they don't strictly speaking need more help from their patron]] to make their EternalLove happen. Interestingly, while the general [[TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons D&D rules]] say that being turned into a vampire (at least the traditional way) inevitably destroys your humanity and thus [[AlwaysChaoticEvil changes your character alignment to evil]], Sylas is still genuinely in love with his wife and their complete loyalty to each other is perfectly mutual. And while he certainly doesn't care about human lives, he doesn't seem particularly invested in [[spoiler: furthering their patron's evil plans of apocalyptic world domination]], and it's still-human Delilah who is a total mass-murdering psychopath who behaves more like [[spoiler: a fanatic cultist than someone who just has a rational interest in fulfilling her side of the bargain she made with a powerful supernatural entity.]] Meanwhile, Silas comes across more like a "happy wife, happy life" sort of guy who's just along for the ride, but who would probably be equally content to simply settle down with her in some remote castle and be left alone by the world.

* In ''LightNovel/SoImASpiderSoWhat'' baby Sophia sucks the blood of her dying servant Merazophis to turn him into a vampire. Though he's initially squeamish about what he's become, he eventually adapts, [[CrazySane perhaps too much so]], and the two have a father/daughter relationship. Their relationship is notably one of [[TokenEvilTeammate Sophia's]] most redeeming characteristics as she directly goes against her own vampire instincts to not make more of her kind because it would degrade the relationship with Mera.

* In ''Literature/LostSouls'' by Poppy Z. Brite, the trope is used ''literally,'' as the vampires in that book reproduce sexually instead of through ViralTransformation.

--->The ''amour fou'' [[note]]French for "crazy love"[[/note]] that flowers between Louis and Lestat – alternating between hungry desire, fussy annoyance and the flirty bickering that bridges the gap from one to the other – rehashes many of the film's insights about makeshift family units in the queer community, particularly in how a younger man can find both partner and father figure in an elder. (Lestat is, ultimately, a vampire daddy.)

** Lestat not only loves Louis, he turned him specifically so he could have an eternal lover and companion. They both acknowledge that there's a vampire father-son dynamic (Louis: "I was a baby bird in Lestat's nest"; Lestat: "I put you on this Earth") in addition to their romantic/sexual relationship. Of course, it's a rather toxic love as a result. A TV critic from ''The Guardian'' had [[https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2022/sep/27/interview-with-the-vampire-review-anne-rice-horror-tv this observation:]]

** Lestat transforms his mistress Antoinette into a vampire so that he can have a second immortal lover and companion. While it's evident that he loves Louis ''far'' more than Antoinette, Lestat's [[ReallyGetsAround high sex drive and need for "a little variety"]] means that Louis alone isn't enough for him. In the climax of the Season 1 finale, Lestat intends to [[OffingTheOffspring eliminate his vampire daughter Claudia]] (whom he despises and he's not attracted to her) and replace her with his latest fledgling Antoinette, who would serve as his second wife while [[MasculineFeminineGayCouple Louis becomes his]] GenderInverted TopWife in a VampiresHarem.

* This is pretty rampant in ''Literature/TheVampireChronicles'' in general, where many of the turned have relationships with their turner. [[FridgeHorror Take comfort in the knowledge that Ricean vampires suffer from permanent impotency.]] According to them the sensations from drinking blood beat sex any time. Thanks to their SenseFreak nature they also can do sex in all but name only, despite of the fact that the organs normally required for the act are pretty much necrotic.

** In ''The Vampire Armand'' and ''Blood and Gold'' Marius de Romanus rescued a Russian boy named Amadeo who had been kidnapped and sold into slavery from a brothel and the two of them had a pederastic relationship [[EmergencyTransformation until Amadeo was poisoned during a fight and Marius turned him on the brink of death]].
** Marius' great love in his human life was Pandora, a girl 15 years him younger but when they met again after many years he's already a vampire and she has reached his human age. Since she has been fatally injured by one of his enemy, she has no choice but turning her into a vampire. The two lived together for about 200 years before a huge argument that kept them apart for 1400 years.

** Interestingly, in at least one case turning a lover results in the relationship collapsing. Daniel Molloy begs Armand to turn him, but Armand knows it's Daniel's fragile humanity that interests him. It's only when Daniel's liver starts to shut down thanks to his constant drinking that Armand is forced to turn him. The relationship does indeed end shortly after, especially since Daniel goes insane.

** Lestat transforms his mistress Antoinette into a vampire so that he can have a second immortal lover and companion. While it's evident that he loves Louis ''far'' more than Antoinette, Lestat's [[ReallyGetsAround high sex drive and need for "a little variety"]] means that Louis alone isn't enough for him. In the climax of the Season 1 finale, Lestat intends to [[OffingTheOffspring eliminate his vampire daughter Claudia]] (whom he despises and he's not attracted to her) and replace her with his latest fledgling Antoinette, who would serve as his second wife while [[MasculineFeminineGayCouple Louis becomes his]] GenderFlipped TopWife in a VampiresHarem.

* ''Series/InterviewWithTheVampire2022'': Lestat not only loves Louis, he turned him specifically so he could have an eternal lover and companion. They both acknowledge that there's a vampire father-son dynamic (Louis: "I was a baby bird in Lestat's nest"; Lestat: "I put you on this Earth") in addition to their romantic/sexual relationship.

* ''Literature/AnitaBlake'': Asher was the lover of his maker, Belle Morte. Considering what [[HornyDevils her line]] is, this is par for the course. And sort of--though ''technically'' not--in the case of Jean-Claude. Belle ''didn't'' turn him: It's stated that he was turned by another vampire whose Master of the City essentially pimped him out. However, Belle as the head of her line is a "mother" or at least ancestor to all the vamps of her bloodline so it still can apply.

** Lorena Krasiki and Bill Compton

** Then there's the Winklers. Doreen isn't a vampire but likes acting the part (to the extent of adopting a stereotypical Uberwaldean accent despite being an Ankh-Morpork native who's never been even remotely near Uberwald). Her husband is one, but doesn't especially enjoy it, and presumably the ''last'' thing he wants is to put up with Doreen for eternity.

* Pretty much the modus operandi of the White Court in ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'', with the incest element taken to very literal depth - the ruling family reproduces rather than turning humans into vampires like the other courts, and the White King rapes his daughters in order to mentally dominate them. His sons meanwhile tend to die in [[MakeItLookLikeAnAccident Unfortunate Accidents]].

* ''Series/ForeverKnight'': [=LaCroix=]'s daughter Divia, who turned him just before Pompeii was destroyed by Vesuvius, wanted to start a more intimate relationship with him, but he refused. Divia was made a vampire herself at about 12 years old.

* In ''Series/BloodTies'', Henry specifically mentions that a vampire only turns people he or she cares about. In his case, Christina warned him that natural vampiric territoriality would eventually force them apart, lest they [[IHateYouVampireDad kill each other]].

** The Master also held Darla as his favorite and had a breakdown after she died.

* Creator/ParkChanWook's ''Film/{{Thirst}}'' plays up the WifeHusbandry aspect of this trope. The protagonist Sang-hyeon first feels drawn to Tae-ju out of sympathy, since her foster mother Mrs. Ra adopted her so she could raise her to be a wife to her son (and basically a slave to the both of them). Sang-hyeon later saves her life via an EmergencyTransformation, and there is the feeling that Tae-ju has merely gone from one relationship of quasi-incestuous dependency to another. Her feelings toward him [[IHateYouVampireDad begin to shift]] after her transformation.

Now, {{Troper}}. Let us be together, [[{{Immortality}} for eternity!]] *Chomp*

* In ''WebComic/TheOrderOfTheStick'', we eventually learn that [[spoiler:Malack]]'s "children" were in fact his vampire spawn, whom he considered family. How fully this was reciprocated probably depends on how closely the setting stays to its ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' roots (see above). [[spoiler:When forced to kill his friend Durkon over their moral differences (namely, Malack being a vampire), Malack opts to transform Durkon into a vampire spawn in hopes of resolving said differences and saving their friendship.]]

* Pretty much the modus operandi of the White Court in ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'', with the love element and especially the incest element taken to very literal depth - the ruling family reproduces rather than turning humans into vampires like the other courts, and the White King has sex with his daughters in order to dominate them. His sons meanwhile tend to die in [[MakeItLookLikeAnAccident Unfortunate Accidents]].

** {{Squick}}y is the (very strongly) implied relationship between Claudia and Louis. The HoYay (and sometimes FoeYay) between Lestat and Louis, on the other hand, was just fun.
