When a vampire is hungry and isn't quite so decent or hard up as to lower himself to only buying blood at the butcher's or trapping and draining small animals instead, their dietary supplement of preference is [[HorrorHunger human blood]]. They can [[VegetarianVampire survive on the blood of lesser beings]], sure, but [[EvilTastesGood human blood is the good stuff]] -- it's the difference between artificial processed cheese food and genuine aged cheddar as a human palate would comprehend it.

* ''VisualNovel/AoiShiro'' is not an eroge, but all the blood-drinking scenes are obvious stand-ins for sex. There's even a soft, romantic-porno style BGM track reserved just for those scenes. Also applies to it's predecsessor, ''VisualNovel/AkaiIto''.
* ''VisualNovel/DiabolikLovers'': Vampire bites always hurt and are always erotic at the same time. If the vampire wants to be nice it may barely hurt at all, but the vampires are bad boys with sadistic streaks a mile wide, so it's nothing to count on. The heroine seems to find the experience of having her blood sucked paralyzing, in part because it's pleasurable, but also due to an implication that she enjoys it more than she thinks she should.
* ''VisualNovel/HavenfallIsForLovers'' includes scenes in which the heroine's vampire love interest drinks her blood and it's depicted as an erotic experience. In Antonio's route, his bite is noted to have a supernaturally pleasurable effect which the protagonist's narration actually describes as "{{better than sex}}." This doesn't seem to be the case for Diego, either because of his reluctance to drink directly from a living person or because he simply lacks that particular vampire ability, but the heroine still finds it enjoyable.
* ''VisualNovel/MoonlightLovers'': As long as the victim isn't afraid and doesn't resist, the "poison" present in the vampire's fangs makes the bite a pleasurable experience. Because of this condition, this trope is played in different ways in each routes before finally being played straight.

The decent sort of {{Friendly Neighborhood Vampire}}s tends to feel bad about what they must do to their victims. Kiss of the Vampire is vampires who can make the experience of being a drink box not just bearable, but pleasurable for the donor.

* In ''Manga/{{Shiki}}'' vampire bites don't seem to be particularly painful ([[spoiler:Masao]] even looked like he might have been enjoying it a bit in episode 5) and the bite marks aren't very severe (a doctor mistakes them for insect bites). Also, it's speculated by Toshio that the bites might inject a narcotic substance into the victim to keep them under control. It should be noted that while bites don't cause any immediate harm, multiple drainings can lead to death.

Overprotective Dad is a disambiguation


* ''Manga/MyMonsterSecret'' plays this literally. When Asahi sees Youko eating a normal lunch and asks about blood-drinking, she gets offended and calls it sexual harassment. Afterwards she explains that blood-sucking is an incredibly intimate act among vampires, and is sometimes used in place of a kiss at vampire weddings. [[spoiler:Later chapters take it a step further, with [[TricksterMentor Akane]] {{Troll}}ing drops a bombshell by telling the couple that blood-drinking is more akin to ''sex'', and compares Youko to a sexual predator taking advantage of a naive girl. Despite her trolling, she's actually correct: vampires can even reproduce via blood-sucking, and by the end of the series Youko is pregnant with Asahi's child. Her vampire father Genjuro, normally an OverprotectiveDad, is surprisingly understanding and admits that he never told Youko because he was too uncomfortable having TheTalk with her.]]

* In the ''TabletopGame/{{Ravenloft}}'' novel ''Vampire of the Mists'', when Jander feeds from Ana for the first time, it says that she moaned, but did not pull away. Later on, when Jander is describing what feeding is like for both vampires and their victims, he compares it explicitly to sex. On the other hand, the book also uses the opposite trope, VampireBitesSuck, for when vampires lose control during feeding.

* ComicBook/{{Fables}} spin-off ''Fairest'' has this with Tomoko. Technically, she's a {{Kitsune}} rather than a vampire, but she feeds on her lovers' blood, and her sex scenes with Rapunzel certainly fit this trope, being neat little punctures that appear to be intensely pleasurable for both parties. When feeding off {{J|erkass}}ack, however, [[VampireBitesSuck it's much messier, more violent, less enjoyable, and would have killed him without his regenerative abilities]], so maybe she only uses this trope with partners about whom she actually cares.

** In "Graduation Day" Buffy needed to get Angel to bite her because the blood of the Slayer was the only thing that could cure a poison in his blood stream. It starts off with them both standing as he bites her, then they fall to the floor with him on top and though Buffy is obviously in pain at first it takes on a decidedly more sexual appearance after a second with her moving her legs up around him. [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything So it hurts at first, but starts feeling good after a while.]] At the climax of the experience, Buffy's body shudders and her leg kicks out violently, sending a bench and urn crashing to the floor. This was a deliberate attempt to equate the experience with sex and the violent ending spasm with orgasm in a way that would avoid the censors, according to the Word of God. However, her final expression before losing consciousness is pure horror, while Angel still keeps drinking.

* In ''Series/ForeverKnight'' vampirism is often compared to addiction. The flashbacks in one episode had a woman continuing to sneak out at night to visit Nicholas even though she knew his feeding on her would eventually kill her. He does end up killing her and feels bad about it, but knows he'll be drawn to find another victim and begin the process again.
