I like Blood Magic as a gameplay mechanic (i.e., using life force/blood to power spells). The problem is that the specialization carries very negative connotations according to the lore of the world. Being an apostate in DA 2 already requires a certain amount of suspension of disbelief, and being a blood mage even more so.
While I do think that Bioware could certainly improve how they incorporate the blood mage specialization into the story, I also think that players need to hold more realistic expectations of what Bioware can do with specializations affecting the story.
So how will the Mage/Blood Mage class be handled for the story?

Using blood magic and having no one acknowledge, having it as merely a weapon with no danger from either the reactions of others or the influence of demons is utterly destructive to the logic of the setting.
If you aren't stupid about it, you should be fine from demons. I haven't seen anyone in-game that would make that distinction without being a blood mage themself though.
