* ''Literature/{{Carmilla}}'': Laura (who is not aware that she is being fed on by a vampire, and who thinks she is just having bad dreams) perceives Carmilla's bites in a semi-conscious state as a "sensation as if a hand was drown softly along my cheek and neck", followed by a feeling "as if warm lips kissed me, and longer and more lovingly as they reached my throat, but there the caress fixed itself". Despite Carmilla's apparent wish to make her bite painless, maybe even pleasurable to Laura, this is not truly successful; the actual bite (which is not felt by Laura) induces physical reactions that are evocative of orgasm ("my heart beat faster, my breathing rose and fell rapidly and fully drawn"), only to pass over into "a sense of strangulation", a "dreadful convulsion", and loss of consciousness.

* Though not actually ''pleasurable'', there are some basis in fact of the painlessness of being bitten by blood-sucking predators; namely the humble mosquito and leech. Both accomplish the feat of not having their unfortunate prey notice the wounds from which their blood is drawn by the double virtue of having incredibly thin proboscis/teeth ''and'' the simultaneous injection of anaesthetic saliva into the wound while they feast. Ultimately subverted with larger species of mosquito, with millimeter wide proboscis that has a nasty ''sting'' not unlike being stuck with a sewing needle; not to mention the fact that the leech's saliva is also ''anti coagulant'', which means while it won't ''hurt'', it will bleed like crazy once it detaches.
* Vampire ''bats'' produce an anesthetic compound in their saliva that reduces pain in their hosts to prevent them waking up. This unfortunately causes some humans who get bitten to underestimate the severity of the bite - not because of injury (which is minimal), but because they can be rabies carriers.

* While this trope is present in ''Literature/MidnightIllusion'' by Jane Linnet, unfortunately, circumstances result in the FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire to have to go for the nearest food source, as there's no time to wait for anyone else to arrive. Since said vampire is AmbiguouslyBi and the human is a straight man, it's incredibly awkward and played for laughs. Said vampire does note that feeding on someone always overrides IncompatibleOrientation on both the vampire and human sides of the feeding.

** In the Buffy season eight comic, with vampires having become a public fad, there are a lot of humans who get bitten by vampires on purpose. The vampires and humans seem to have established some kind of truce: humans let the vampires bite them, and in return the vampires will leave them alive and only feed off the ones who want to be bitten. The humans gain a rush out of this deal and the vampires a steady food supply. Not all vampires agree with this, however, since they are soulless and inherently evil, and continue killing people.
*** In the same season Angel manages to calm down [[SuperPoweredEvilSide Dark Willow]] by biting her neck, impressive since it took Xander's [[ThePowerOfLove power of love]] and childhood memories to stop her last time.

* A vampire's bite in the ''Literature/AnitaBlake'' series is as painful as you might expect, unless the vampire put the victim into a trance beforehand, in which case it feels really good. Except for Asher. His bite is of the orgasmic variety. Victims can become addicted to Asher's bite, and can experience flashbacks of the feelings said bite causes.
* In J.R. Ward's ''Literature/BlackDaggerBrotherhood'' series, this is almost always the case. Regardless of the combo (vampire/vampire, vampire/human, vampire/[[EmotionEater sympath]]... you get the idea). The vampires almost always find the feeding experience pleasurable, and it's specifically described in ''Lover Eternal'' that the act of [[spoiler: Rhage drinking from a vampire woman named Layla had "a shocking level of intimacy." This deserves special mention because he was desperately trying ''not'' to feel anything for her. He wanted to feed from the human woman he'd fallen in love with, Mary, but since she wasn't of his kind and [[OurVampiresAreDifferent it's impossible to "turn" a human]], he would've killed her before his body regained the nourishment it needed]].
* In Creator/TanyaHuff's ''Literature/BloodBooks'', Henry generally feeds by taking blood from his partners during sex. They usually don't even notice.
** It's also plainly erotic for the victim, even for those with IncompatibleOrientation, as Vicki and a (male) friend discover when they force him to drink from them to save himself.
* In the ''[[{{Literature/Bloodline2006}} Bloodline]]'' series, vampire bites are revealed to be intensely pleasurable experiences, comparable to sex. Even unwilling victims will melt into a puddle as they’re bitten. And for the vampire doing the biting, it goes beyond just simple feeding- it’s explicitly an intimate and [[{{HemoErotic}} sensual]] experience for them as well.

So yes, the people who claim that vampires = sex is a modern invention are full of nonsense.

* The bite of a vampire in ''Literature/TheImmortalRules'' supposedly has soothing properties...all the better for the victim not to resist as their blood is being drained away. However we never actually see this happen as every time the protagonist feeds, it is obviously [[VampireBitesSuck painful and terrifying for the victim]]. This is slightly {{justified|Trope}} both by the fact that she is an extremely new vampire, and by the fact that those she fed on were opponents in the middle of ''trying to kill her'', so she wasn't as inclined to use finesse.
* In the ''[[{{Literature/Bloodline2006}} Bloodline]]'' series, vampire bites are revealed to be intensely pleasurable experiences, comparable to sex. Even unwilling victims will melt into a puddle as they’re bitten. And for the vampire doing the biting, it goes beyond just simple feeding- it’s explicitly an intimate and [[{{HemoErotic}} sensual]] experience for them as well.



* ''Literature/TheSookieStackhouseMysteries'' describe vampire fangs as injecting an anti-coagulant, and the saliva a coagulant and agent to assist healing in their victims. But the vampires who indulge with a victim to make it part of sex, often choose an inner thigh vein rather than, necessarily, the neck.
** Unfortunately, if a vampire is newly risen or starved for blood, he'll go into immediate attack mode. Attack mode includes raping the victim while drinking from him/her.
** The feeding-from-the-thigh thing is also mentioned in the ''Literature/KittyNorville'' books- in the context of a young woman calling into the main character's radio show tentatively wondering how she can... wean, so to speak, her vampiric lover from said vein and more to the conventional neck-feeding. And also how she can get him to wear poet shirts more...
* P.N. Elrod's ''Literature/TheVampireFiles'' series does not describe the bite as sexy/euphoric, except to say that the sex is better for Jack if he can drink at the moment of climax. But his girlfriend doesn't seem to mind, so it must feel at least painless to her.
** Actually, in book 2, ''Lifeblood'', Bobbi explicitly states that Jack's bite is preferable to normal intercourse because "it just goes on and on...." In the same scene, Jack refers to the fact that the act of feeding from her stimulates the pleasure centers in the same way that sex previously did.
* A vampire's bite in the ''Literature/AnitaBlake'' series is as painful as you might expect, unless the vampire put the victim into a trance beforehand, in which case it feels really good. Except for Asher. His bite is of the orgasmic variety. Victims can become addicted to Asher's bite, and can experience flashbacks of the feelings said bite causes.
* Creator/StephenKing's ''{{Dracula}}'' tribute ''Literature/SalemsLot'' uses this. All the vampires put victims in trances before even the first bite. Well, it's implied that Straker's death was more of a gruesome one. Barlow, in his letter to Ben ''et al.'', makes oblique reference to his own appetites betraying him.

* Vampire bites in ''Manga/BlackBloodBrothers'' are depicted as very pleasurable, so much so that a woman will squirm and moan orgasmically as she is being fed upon. One character even goes so far as to say that [[BetterThanSex sex pales in comparison]] to being bitten.

* ''Manga/SeraphOfTheEnd'':
** Krul literally kisses Mika on the mouth to turn him into a vampire. It was painful at first, but after that he found it immorally pleasurable and was unable to control his thirst for her blood, to the extent he drank from her everyday for 4 years until Krul was forced to part with him.
** The light novels describe vampire biting as pleasant for both the vampire and the one they are biting. It explains why [[HoYay Yuu and Mika]] blush when they have their biting scene.
* 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 ''Manga/BlackBloodBrothers'' are depicted as episode 5) and the bite marks aren't very pleasurable, so much so severe (a doctor mistakes them for insect bites). Also, it's speculated by Toshio that the bites might inject a woman will squirm and moan orgasmically as she is being fed upon.

* The bite of ''Manga/VampirePrincessMiyu'' is effectively a LotusEaterMachine - those bitten are permanently captured in a delusional fantasyland of pure joy and happiness. She usually deals it out to humans who've just barely survived a traumatic encounter with the Shinma she hunts, thus making it a sort of 'mercy'. Still doesn't change the fact that they'll spend the rest of their lives staring empty-eyed into the wall, though.



* Subverted in ''Anime/GrimmsFairyTaleClassics'' episode "The Crystal Ball," although it is a wicked witch, not a vampire, who routinely bites the neck of an innocent princess, in one of the most cruel and sadistic scenes ever imaginable. The princess also turns into a corpse afterwards, and somehow regenerates.
* Jean-Marais in ''Manga/DanceInTheVampireBund'' describes sucking blood and having one's blood sucked as the ultimate pleasure, against which human intercourse "pales in comparison." As if the rape overtones of his newly turned followers "gang-draining" several unwilling schoolgirls and a ''nun'' were not blatant enough.

* Episode 5 of ''LightNovel/IsThisAZombie'' starts with [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot vampire ninja]] Sera literally kissing [[spoiler: Haruna]] on the lips then biting her on the neck. The kiss apparently acted as an anesthetic so the bite wouldn't be painful.

* The kiss/bite of the vampire is an analogy for rape in Bram Stoker's ''Literature/{{Dracula}}'' novel. Instead of trying to seduce Mina Harker like Carmilla did with Laura, Dracula tricks one of the mental patients in Dr. Seward's house into inviting him in and physically forces Mina to drink his blood against her will, leaving the traumatized girl to go through periods of denial, anger, and depression while viewing what she suffered that night as a FateWorseThanDeath than which [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil nothing could possibly be worse]]. Since most Gothic literature of the 18th and 19th centuries used the word "seduce" where we would use "rape," Stoker gets major points for being possibly the first author since [[Literature/TheFaerieQueene Edmund Spenser]] to recognize the difference between seduction and force. Then along came the movies that ship Mina with her metaphorical rapist with the public's approval. The adaptors apparently somehow got Stoker's novel confused with ''Literature/{{Carmilla}}'' and ''Literature/ThePhantomOfTheOpera''.

When Asahi sees Youko eating a normal lunch and asks about blood-drinking, she calls it sexual harassment; afterwards she explains that to vampires, blood-sucking is an incredibly intimate act, and is actually used in place of the traditional kiss at vampire weddings. [[spoiler:Later chapters reveal that it's actually even ''more'' intimate than that, to the point where after Youko drinks Asahi's blood for the first time, another character compares it to a man taking advantage of a naive girl to bed her. Even later it goes even further than that, revealing that vampires can actually have children as a result of drinking blood, and that in the BadFuture Asahi and Youko had a daughter this way. Near the end of the series, she gets pregnant with his child this way in the present. It's also revealed that Youko was actually unaware of how intimate it really was, as she had asked her father when she was younger, and he was (understandably) uncomfortable with telling her that it was the vampiric equivalent of sex.]]

[[spoiler:Later chapters reveal take it a step further, with [[TricksterMentor Akane]] {{Troll}}ing drops a bombshell by telling the couple that it's actually even ''more'' intimate than that, blood-drinking is more akin to the point where after Youko drinks Asahi's blood for the first time, another character ''sex'', and compares it Youko to a man sexual predator taking advantage of a naive girl to bed her. Even later it goes even further than that, revealing that girl. Despite her trolling, she's actually correct: vampires can actually have children as a result of drinking blood, even reproduce via blood-sucking, and that in the BadFuture Asahi and Youko had a daughter this way. Near by the end of the series, she gets series Youko is pregnant with his child this way in the present. It's also revealed that Youko was actually unaware of how intimate it really was, as she had asked her Asahi's child. Her vampire father when she was younger, Genjuro, normally an OverprotectiveDad, is surprisingly understanding and admits that he never told Youko because he was (understandably) too uncomfortable having TheTalk with telling her that it was her.]]

* The ''{{Dracula}}'' films are practically the TropeMakers for this, as the male vampire as seducer and bringer of pleasure practically begins here (for female, see the novella ''Literature/{{Carmilla}}''). Dracula in the films is a thinly veiled analogy for a dangerous, predatory (and - gasp! - foreign) man who ruins pure, innocent English girls, so even though he is not explicitly portrayed as "sexy," the parallel with seduction is obvious.

* ''Film/DraculaDeadAndLovingIt'' is a PG-13 vehicle so the sexy aspect of the kiss is left out altogether.
* This is also true for ''My Mom is a Vampire''
* And ''The Little Vampire''
* As well as ''Film/LoveAtFirstBite''.
** In fact, ''Love At First Bite'' couldn't be said to leave out said aspect, as the woman being bitten seems to be (based on the sounds she's making) in the throes of, if not an orgasm, than something just about as good. The scene just afterward [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything builds upon the implication that it was the equivalent of good sex]].
