@Soundwave14 Yeah, I don't know if it's just the writing or if it'll become clearer later on on purpose. I mostly get it I think, except for how they all got it. Is it an actual bee? Were they attacked by demons or something? Or did they inherit it from their parents/is it hereditary? What I know is that everyone has their partner. If they don't, they haven't met them yet or they're partner is dead I guess. In which case they are not affected by this whole thing anymore I think. Of the partners one of them has excess blood and has to give it to the other person. The one who drinks blood needs it because they don't have enough blood. If they don't meet their partner this whole thing doesn't activate. I think when they first meet they have to touch for it to activate based on the main characters. Somehow they can recognize other infected (?) people even unawakened ones. Or at least some of them can. Did I help or did make it more confusing? Sorry for writing so much.
