If the GM wants to save the NPC can't he just use the concession mechanic. It's what it's for, no?

That way you get to try to kill the vamp, satisfying your character issues and gain a Fate point. The GM concedes and the vamp lives to fight another day.

Concessions are not unilateral, they must be reasonable given the situation and are subject to negotiation to reach such a point, so it's not actually a given that a concession would offer this NPC the leverage necessary to avoid destruction.
It would seem to me, in fact, that, given the BCV's state, it would (or perhaps should) already have been the subject of a Taken Out result or a Concession, leaving it's fate in the hands of this divided party.
Even Chaotic Neutral individuals have to apologize sometimes. But at least we don't have to mean it.

Suggests the GM shoulda conceded earlier.
