Chapter Three

______________________________________________________________ ______________________________

Her head was no longer bleeding, but Seras felt a little weak and her various cuts and bruises were paining her.  The small vampire headed for the kitchen, avoiding the multitudes of curious, busy servants, who were preparing food and drink for the partiers.  She headed through a door into the back room, where there was a huge freezer, stocked with blood for herself and Alucard.

A man stepped into her path and took her arm, flinching a little as he felt her ice cold skin.  "You can't be back here, Miss.  Please return to the party."  He told her politely, but with a steely edge underneath.

Seras eyed him with wide red eyes, amused that the male did not know one of the only two vampires in the entire Organization.  She leant in close, and opened her lashes up further.  "What colour are my eyes?"  She asked him softly, helping the foolish human to figure it out. Quite frankly, he was annoying her, and she was hungry and wounded.

The head servant frowned at her question, obviously thinking that she was a dumb blonde, and maybe drunk to boot, but then his eyes went to hers and he went white.  The male backed off swiftly, suddenly recognizing the presence of an immortal.  Oh dear, he had been briefed about this when taking the job.  His one order from Mr. Walter was to never deny either Lady Seras or Lord Alucard from the fridge in that room.  It had blood.  "I-I-"  The human stammered, backing off.  "Please take what you want, my Lady!"  He shouted, turning tail and fleeing.

The small girl blinked after him, a little stunned.  Well, that had been quite a strong, unnecessary reaction to finding out that he was sharing a room with a vampire.  And what had he called her?  My Lady?  Weirder and weirder.  Walter had also called her that occasionally, instead of Miss, and Alucard had also been granted the title.  What did it mean exactly?  Sir Integra had also been referred to as Lady Hellsing...  "I wonder."  Seras whispered, fascinated.

She headed for the fridge and freezers, hearing a commotion outside in the main kitchen.  Apparently the staff had all been informed and were giving her a wide berth.  It was rather amusing really.  The blonde reached for the large fridge door and hauled it open easily, unsurprised that the massive metal plate had been nothing to her super strength.  She eyed the dozens of bags of blood, stunned silly by how many there were.  'Are these all for us?'  The girl wondered mentally.  How the hell were they all kept so fresh?

'The blood bags?  Yes, they are all for us.'  Alucard replied, having kept a close eye on his female in the mansion.  He had given her the privacy till she left her bedroom and then connected with her mind again once more, stunned to find his Childe dressed in sexy leather and velvet.  The ancient vampire almost came in his pants when he realized that the girl's perfect ass was clad in tight black leather!  He most definitely approved of her wardrobe change and wondered what had brought it about.

The blonde scowled, almost smudging the heavy eyeliner and mascara about her crimson orbs.  She had put it on very thickly when redoing the makeup, looking quite gothic and alluring.  Her Master would be pleased, no doubt, that she was finally embracing her vampire nature.  The girl was even dressing the part!  It was not only for looks though, her battle gear.  It was a tool to seduction and Pip would be one of the major players. 

Seras had most definitely not given up the fight against her Sire. She would not be giving into the lust between them, as it was only a need to be intimate with another of her kind. As Alucard had explained it, she would only feel desire for another vampire, and he was the only one around.  It had only been that the two of them were never around the other till the party, and therefore that attraction had never been felt before.  When they met during battle with the ghouls, the only thing they had  discussed was a plan to dispatch the enemy and felt blood-lust for the enemy.  To her shame, sometimes she was aroused with all that crimson liquid about her, in her nose and on her uniform.

'How many do you drink a night?' His Childe asked curiously, half-expecting for the ancient vampire to give her the brush-off.  It was a very personal question, after all.  Even if she was his fledgling.  'Never mi-'  The blonde began, only to be cut off.

Alucard chuckled in amusement into her head, more than happy to answer.  'Four bags, Police Girl.  And there you are, barely consuming one every couple of days.'  Her Sire taunted.  The ancient vampire was lazing against a table at the party, following the girl's progress in his mind as she discovered the blood store.  He felt her thoughts about her lust for it during battle, which was entirely natural to a vampire, and was a little amused by how she was humiliated by the longing.  Once he was her Mate, the male would be making certain that she drank blood every day-even if it was just his.

The blonde glared as she reached in and grabbed a bag, turning it over in her hands to try and find some sort of use by date.  It was a habit that she had as a human and after a moment, the small vampire went red and mumbled something uncomplimentary under her voice.  She slammed the door closed and stalked over to a table, sliding the chair out and sinking into it.  As usual, her natural inclination was not to drink the blood, but Seras was actually very hungry.  Her Master's violence of earlier in the bathroom, slamming her into the basin and mirror and causing enough harm for a fair amount of the girl's blood to leak out, had made her inner demon pretty ravenous.

With hesitation, the small vampire brought the blood to her lips and her teeth grew long and elongated.  Walter usually brought a bowl and spoon, so it was the first time that the blonde had drank directly from the bag.

"Drink the blood, Childe."  Alucard said silkily from behind her, having materialized into the room as she sat there thinking.  He saw her stiffen and then the girl's head turned and she regarded her Sire with narrowed crimson eyes, angry and frustrated.  This was a familiar scene and they both knew it.  But this time, there was a sexual charge under it all, and he fully intended to take advantage of that fact.

As Seras hesitated, the bag still at her mouth, she was surprised to see the ancient vampire stride gracefully towards her and then kneel at the blonde's feet.  He grasped her leg below the knee and pulled, the chair sliding out from under the table and his Childe made to face him.  Her crimson eyes went wide and startled, trying to yank her limb from his fingers which were burning right through the leather and causing her stomach to flip flop with excitement.

The dark-haired vampire's nose twitched as he smelled his female's arousal, surprised that it had taken so very little.  Only his hand on her leg.  How absolutely fascinating and very, very telling.  The blonde was very susceptible to his touch, and she had already shown great passion.  He wanted her so badly it was an ache inside and the male was determined to have her as a lover by the end of the night.  But Seras was such an innocent little thing, and far too young and sweet for an ancient powerful being like himself.  He would corrupt her, as he  had dark tastes.  Alucard loved blood and pain with sex...and once he had the girl in his bed, under him, he would not let her go.  Ever.

For the first time since setting out to seduce Seras that night, Alucard hesitated. Was it right to do this to his only Childe?  It was an instinctive draw that they had to each other, and not only because they were vampires.  It was sexual and primal and dark.  Her demon wanted him, and his wanted her.  But if the blonde allowed him to seduce her, she would assume that they would eventually part as lovers and go to new ones.  She had no idea that to let him fuck her was initiate the claim of a Mate.  Her saying yes to their intimacies was going to create an eternal bond, far deeper and more consuming than that of Childe and Sire.  'Seras,'  Her Master said slowly, red eyes suddenly very serious as his fingers slid up over her calf and inching towards the blonde's thigh.

'Yes, Master?'  The small vampire responded, abruptly sobering herself.  There was something in the air that made her hairs stand on end.  A tension.  And for once, it was not sexual.  The crimson eyes staring hard into her own sort of made Seras want to bolt and never stop running.  Whatever Alucard was about to ask her was really important and she wasn't sure that she wanted to hear it.

Once he had made certain that her wary eyes were locked upon his own, Alucard went on.  "Do you want me to leave you alone, Childe? I can hand you over to Walter for training to be a No Life Queen. It will be through my instructions of course, and he would be the liaison.  I will keep my distance and you will go back to seeing me only once in a while."  He felt like biting his own mouth off at the words coming out.  He felt utterly infuriated that his feelings for this young nineteen year old, fresh vampire, were so soft that the male was prepared to make a huge sacrifice.  If his female truly did not want him near her, then he had to offer this to her.  When Seras accepted him as a lover, it was forever.  The blonde would never be free again, never be allowed to look or touch another male, take another lover, be apart from him for long periods of time, as their Mating bond would cause them pain.

Seras' jaw dropped at this heartfelt speech, so unlike her gorgeous Master.  She had never heard him being so serious...or humble.  The powerful old vampire knew that there was something growing out of control between the two of them; sexual and primal and unstoppable.  And so Alucard was offering her an escape route. He would truly keep away from her...maybe forever.  Did she want that?  The first urge had been to take it and run, frightened by the intensity between them.  It had not been there before that night, the awareness, the arousal and hunger.  But it was there now and it would probably not end well. 

Her second instinct had been the strongest, a fear and desperation gripping the small vampire that she was loosing her Sire and it hurt worse than her jealousy over Sir Integra.  She was still not certain that something wasn't going on between the two, even if the ancient vampire could not become sexually aroused by the human.  Oh god, her head hurt.  Her heart.  "Can I think about it?"  The small blonde whispered, looking anguished and shy.

Alucard's crimson eyes flashed with some emotion that he fought back, and then he nodded slowly, fingers still smoothing over the leather that had been warmed by her body.  To human's, his Childe felt cold, but to him, she was warm.  It pained him a little that the girl had not made up her mind to either send him away, or let whatever was going on between them happen.  But she was young and scared and was clinging to the only vampire that she knew.

He was hopeful though, that Seras would allow him to seduce and Mate her that very night at the party.  His Childe had not immediately rejected his offer, clearly torn.  The male hid a sudden, feral grin.  She was his.  Her demon knew it instinctively, though her mind did not comprehend.  'Oh, Police Girl,'  He thought lustfully to himself, crimson eyes burning into hers. 'You should have run while you had the chance.'

Seras flushed brightly at the look her Master was giving her and then she ignored him and her teeth sank into the bag.  Immediately, rapture gripped her, making her aroused and delighted, thrilled and uninhibited as she writhed in her chair with her eyes closed.  her thighs pressed together, wetness dripping out of her core and an almost orgasmic feeling crashed through her, the blonde's back arching up and her breasts thrust skywards.  Belatedly, the girl remembered that she had always sent Walter from the room whilst she fed for just this reason.  That her Sire was viewing her raw sexual response to the live-giving liquid, turned her on as well as embarrassed the hell out of the small vampire. 

Alucard was in utter thrall as he watched Seras, delighted and stunned at how she was reacting to the blood.  It had been a very long time since he had witnessed the full sexual power of blood over a young vampire.  As they got older, the thrill became less and the blood became more of a necessity for living.  Unless you were an ancient male vampire with a large libido and a yen for blood, sex and violence. Fresh blood was the best, especially pumping right out of a major artery, and it lasted even more divine from a human woman, than from a male. 

He moaned in return as his female thrust her body up, practically shoving her breasts into his face.  His mouth watered to take a taste of those temping globes, but knew that she would not react very well.  The ancient vampire murmured something harsh under his breath and then his hand on her leg began to move again, tracing along the inner seam until he reached the apex.  Through the leather, the male could feel the heat from her core, and smell the overwhelming arousal.  The urge to rip off Seras' pants and bury his face into her wet warmth was almost unbearable.  The dark-haired vampire's muscles locked, and his teeth clenched together desperately.

Seras moaned at the feeling of his hand on her upper leg, and was stunned when the fingers traced the seam on her inner thigh all the way up to where they joined at her groin. His fingers traced her through the leather, finding that little bundle of nerves and pressing hard on it.  She convulsed and gasped out, eyes rolling back her head.  But as the blood thrall faded, just what was happening horrified and shocked the small vampire.

The blonde gasped and bolted upright, slapping his hand away.  "What are you doing?"  She demanded, voice high and panicky.

Alucard's eyes rose, blood-red, ravenous and his fangs were huge in his mouth, clenched tightly to hold himself back.  The male was under huge distress, wanting to touch her and keeping himself in check.  His Childe looked at him with scared eyes, but there was lust in them too.  He snarled low and long, feeling her shiver as he leant over her. The ancient vampire's mouth slowly opened and he inhaled deeply, smelling her arousal and it made him moan helplessly.  'Get out, now.'  Her Master told her, the whites of his eyes being swallowed into the crimson as his demon fought to be free.

Seras hesitated, torn between her natural terror at being in the presence of such a powerful lustful vampire and the growing hunger between them.  He wanted his hands on her, and it was clear. And the blonde really wanted to submit to him, becoming even wetter in her panties when she looked down and saw his cock straining at his pants.  The girl saw his mouth open and he breathed deeply, scenting her lust for him.  She whimpered and then pressed back in her chair.  She was scared and confused, but turned on and curious.  Her inner demon was practically purring and begging to be touched by her Master. 

As he told her to leave and a snarl broke from her Master's lips, her limbs unfroze and the extreme danger of the situation hit home.  The small vampire bolted out of her chair and rushed from the room with her vampiric speed, hearing a roar behind her and then a crashing noise.  She fled in fear and desire, warning the servants not to go anywhere near the room for quite a while. 

When the blonde reached the party, she was panicky, aroused, bewildered and her heart was thundering in her chest.  She went into a quiet corner and caught her breath, absolutely stunned over what had happened.  Alucard wanted her.  Really, really bad.  Was she in heat or something?! Was that it?  Because she was the only another vampire in the mansion?  Oh god, it was that, wasn't it?  She was a female of his kind and their bodies wanted each other.  Disappointment filled her.  "Master, you really had me going there."  She whispered sadly.  When another female vampire came along, the ancient male would probably act the same way to her.  The girl's red eyes closed for a long moment and she rested her hot face against the coolness of a column.  Someone came near and she recognized the smell of Sir Integra.

"Victoria, are you alright?"  The woman asked curiously and a little concerned. Both the girl and Alucard had vanished about the same time, right after Seras locked lips with her so-called boyfriend, Pip.  The man had been confused and then joked that he was losing his touch.  The ancient vampire had reappeared after about an hour, and would not say where he had been.  The blonde girl had just turned up, clothed quite differently and apparently under some distress.  She scrutinized the small vampire's flushed cheeks and wild eyes.

"Me?"  Seras gasped out, cheeks afire as if she thought that her boss could guess what had just taken place.  Not only had Alucard kissed her twice now, he had touched her most intimate of places, hand possessive and hungry, eyes ravenous. The blonde bit back a moan in remembrance and tried to focus.  "Yes, I'm fine.  How has the party been?"  She asked brightly.

Integra smiled slightly, knowing that the girl was avoiding the question.  It had to be something to do with Alucard, but her Servant was now nowhere to be seen.  "Your good-looking suitor was crushed when you fled the scene like Cinderella after your kiss."  She remarked dryly.

The small vampire was chagrined.  Damn, she had forgotten all about the Captain. What must he have thought when the girl he was kissing suddenly bolted?!  She winced when remembering where she had headed.  To thoroughly wash out her mouth!  To get the taste of the moral male off of her lips and body.  It had been a dreadful reaction and the blonde could not help but feel very guilty.  "Oh."  The blonde whispered, red-faced.  She looked past her boss, trying to spot the Captain.

"He is out on the balcony with Miranda, I believe."  Integra murmured discretely and red eyes went to her face in confusion and question.  "The red head."  The woman elaborated.  There was a flash of pain in the vampire's gaze and then she looked a little lost.

"Okay..."  Seras said blankly. Well, that was it then.  The balcony was a make-out spot for the party.  If Pip had taken that red-haired girl from earlier out there, they were most likely going at it hot and heavy.  Who could blame the male, after giving the girl he liked a mind-blowing sexy kiss, and have her run away without an explanation?  It had been a clear rejection, even though the blonde had not meant it that way.  The small vampire felt sadness, but also acceptance.  If only a vampire could truly arouse her, then sex would have been terrible with the human.  It would have hurt like all hell to loose her virginity when totally dry down there.  And eventually, the soldier would have caught on and there would have been fighting and crying.

No, her best bet now was to find a vampire, or vampire's, and date them.  Kiss them.  Maybe even sleep with them.  It was the usual thing to do when dating, only the chances of finding someone who would fall in love with the girl and Mate her were really high.  It would be far more intense, sexual loving, and all-consuming that any mortal relationship.  Suddenly, Seras really wished to find that connection that she had been searching for.  The small vampire ached to find a lover, and a love. Now that she knew not to look amongst the humans, the blonde could expand her search to her own kind. 

Her red eyes swung back to the human female, who was silently regarding her with a thoughtful expression in her blue eyes.  It was a little startling that the two of them were getting along that well, as they had kept a strict boss and employee relationship until the party.  Perhaps that had been the point of the Xmas get-together?  They were all relaxed, the house staff and the soldiers mingling and getting to know each other.  To bond closely in the Organization that was kept a secret from the rest of the world.  It had created close ties between Seras and her soldiers. 

The blonde hesitated and bit her bottom lip as a question fought to be loose, but she really didn't know how Sir Integra was going to take it.  That the woman could even stand to be next to one of the creatures that she had spent her life hunting down, was really amazing.  The heir to the Hellsing Organization was even fond of Alucard, though she seemed to loath all other's of his kind...except for Seras, that was.  "Do you, know any vampire's, Sir Integra?"  The girl asked curiously.

An incredulous expression crossed the older woman's face and then she grinned with amusement at the silly question. Of course she knew vampires.  The Hellsing Organization hunted down and killed them.  Most anyway.  Only the ghouls and manufactured immortal creatures generally needed to be put down.  "Yes."  Integra drawled out, seeing the vampire blush in humiliation at her dumb question.  "I assume that you mean something more specific?"  What on earth was Victoria up to, asking that sort of thing?

Seras nodded, hands clasping together and meeting her boss' eyes with a little desperation.  "Male vampires."  She clarified, voice falling like the toll of doom between them.  It was humiliating to her to even be asking that sort of thing for her boss, who the blonde had not really had any personal conversations with in the last year that she had known her.  But if anyone knew, it was Sir Integra.  She was not asking her Master!

The human stared at her in disbelief for a long moment and then cursed.  "I see that Alucard shared that little gem with you?"  Integra's blue eyes flashed in wrath. Alucard was in need of a firm talking to, it seemed. There had been no need to inform his Childe that only other vampire's would arouse her. She liked the young girl just as she was, and holding onto her humanity. Dating Pip had made her more mortal and approachable and she was well-liked by man people, who saw the shy, kind person behind the vampire.  "Seras,"  The heir to Hellsing said seriously.  "You don't need to have sex to have a relationship."

The blonde's blush became a burn against her fair skin and she squirmed, wishing fervently that she had never brought this up. The conversation had sort of a Mother and Daughter sort of slant to it now, and it was touching, yet humiliating.  Sir Integra appeared to be having the facts of life talk, which admittedly, Seras had never gotten from anyone.  The older woman seemed to know this.  "I know."  The vampire replied simply, eyes far away.  "But since I became a vampire, I've been feeling this urge to Mate.  I figured it was a normal thing for one of the undead, sort of like wolves finding that one special companion of the opposite sex.  They Mate for life, you know."  He was out there somewhere, and she wanted to find him desperately.  As the girl's life was going to be very, very long, she didn't want to spent it alone.

Integra stared back silently, touched by the other girl's words.  If it was truly something that was instinctive to a vampire, then there was nothing more to be said.  Or done. Alucard was Seras' wolf.  He had chosen the girl, and the girl might be as equally drawn to him as her Mate.  The blonde was confused right then, but once she figured some things out, the small vampire was going to realize that her Sire had been under her nose the same time.  The ancient vampire had only just figured out that his Childe was the one for him too.  "Good luck."  She whispered, really meaning it.

Seras nodded and wandered off, face pensive.  It was a pity that her boss didn't know any male's, but that just meant that she had to find him herself.  But for now, there was the problem of her Master and the disturbing lust between them.  Did she want to become his lover?  The girl could freely admit to herself that he attracted her, and his crimson eyes could make her wet without the male even touching her, but the ancient vampire frightened her.  With his darkness and his intensity and the hunger in his eyes when he looked at her. The kiss had been...life-changing.  It had seared through the female like a wave of fire, and she had a feeling that it had changed absolutely everything between them.  Forever.  But how was that possible?  Her demon was screaming out to be let loose and submit to her Sire, and let him do whatever he wanted with her.  But her mind thought differently and was scared of the passion between them.

The blonde girl sighed deeply and wandered off to find someone to take her mind from her problems.  Maybe Walter might like to dance?  Or Pip, if he could be pried away from Miranda.

______________________________________________________________ ______________________________

Alucard appeared then, materializing next to the column at his Master's side.  He gazed after his Childe, crimson eyes far away.  The chaos in the blonde's mind was clear to him, as she went over the kiss and the sexual tension between them and what it could mean.  Although she had not openly rejected his advances, instinctively sensing that becoming his lover would mean far more than just sharing the male's bed, she was not submitting to him either.  Seras had a far stronger will than he had realized and it made him hard at the thrill of the chase.  He was pleased that she was not just giving in and making him work for it.

"Did you hear that, Servant?"  His owner murmured, also staring at the young girl as she accepted a request to dance from an older soldier. The ancient vampire stiffened and his eyes flashed, but then he obviously realized that the human male was too old to proposition Seras and he relaxed again.  "Seras isn't looking for a lover, she is looking for a Mate."

The male looked rather stunned at that.  He had only just gotten a hold over his raging emotions of possessiveness, lust and anger.  Alucard had sensed where his Childe was and gone there, only to see her walking away.  His red eyes narrowed on his Master's face.  "Are you certain?"  He demanded, stepping closer and searching her eyes.  "Why do you say that?"  She was looking for her Mate?  Never.  She was his!  He almost roared in rage that his female was longing for another and had to smother it.

Integra's head tilted thoughtfully.  She was vastly amused by the romance building between the two vampires.  As they were not just going to be lovers, and both were seeking a Mate, it would be natural for the two to fall in love.  The blonde woman certainly hoped so, as it would keep her Servant from going wild.  Several times since she had met him as a childe, the ancient vampire had fought her control and disappeared, returning later in the wake of such bloody chaos that she had been forced to cover up for him.  The woman had no illusions that she held the leash of a ravenous beast.  "Victoria mentioned feeling a draw to someone out there since she became a vampire."  She laughed in amusement.  "And even made comparisons to wolves taking mates for life."

"Hmm."  Alucard murmured, expression becoming rather dangerous.  If it was true, then he needed to claim Seras immediately, before someone else did. If he was not the one that she had felt a pull to, then it would make absolutely no matter.  The blonde was going to be mated by him and he would kill any other males that came near her ruthlessly, till there were no more obstacles.  But it did bother the male that this was perhaps the reason that the blonde was not giving into his seduction.  Was Seras holding out for her Mate to come?  If that was the case, then he would have to take immediate steps to make her look at him and only him.

"Is it normal for a vampire to want to Mate after being turned?"  His owner asked curiously.  Really, vampires were extremely interesting and she was getting a front row seat to everything that was happening to the two that she controlled.

The ancient vampire's face closed and he looked rather grimly at Integra, darkness and hunger in his gaze.  "No,"  He said clearly.  "The urge only comes upon a vampire when their chosen Mate is nearby."  And if Seras was having that urge, then he had to take his female as soon as possible.  Her Mate could not have her!  He had also felt the urge for a while now and ignored it, as Alucard had felt no urge to be claimed by a female, but now that he had kissed the blonde, it was her that he wanted to Mate with. The other one that had been born for him could go to hell as far as he was concerned, and so could the one meant for the blonde.

The woman's mouth fell open, eyes going wide.  So Seras had been sensing Alucard from the moment she became an immortal?  Was this what had driven the male to turn her in the first place?  The question was in her gaze as she looked at the tall, powerful vampire.  His lips twisted and a ruthless look in his hard red eyes.  The expression absolutely chilled Integra.  This was the creature that all rational human beings and immortals feared.  Anyone who crossed this ancient vampire was as good as dead.  But why was the ancient vampire furious in the first place?  Her blue eyes went wide as something occurred to her, and it gave her the chills.  Was Victoria not his Mate and he was going to force her?  "Alucard-" She began, but he cut her off, confirming her fears.

"Seras may not have been sensing myself, but she will not be Mating anyone else."  The dark-haired vampire snarled out.  "She is mine and mine alone."  Alucard stalked off then, rage in his every movement.  His Childe possibly had a Mate out there, if she was having the urge to be claimed.  The ancient vampire would never allow her to be taken by someone else.  His seduction needed to go ahead immediately, before whoever the blonde had been born into this world for sensed her too.

______________________________________________________________ ______________________________

The girl stared hard at the food table, looking over all the delicious food there.  Chocolate pudding, roast apricot chicken, eggnog!  She inhaled deeply, taking in the scents and wishing that it actually made her hungry.  Her human longings were still there, but now only blood would satisfy her.  Only blood.  The blonde was despondent, turning away and wandering across the room. If only the liquid tempted her more, but each time she drank it, she felt as if she were losing her remaining humanity.  No wonder her Master thought her such a weak, inferior immortal.  Seras was unworthy in his eyes.

But not apparently his lips!  She moaned and covered her eyes with one hand, blushing brightly at her thoughts.  Good lord, would it never fade?  Male's that she had kissed in the past, at the Orphanage, at School and the Police Academy, had never been remember that vividly.  The girl could still feel her Master's lips on hers, the scent of him, the taste of his saliva.  Her hand fell and the blonde hissed out in frustration.  This was ridiculous!  Why would Alucard not leave her head?  Before that night, and his insistence on taking advantage of the mistletoe as all the other men in the room had been doing, she never would have even thought about being intimate with her Sire.  Had not overly even thought him attractive to herself until she really looked at him.

Seras was so lost in thought that she almost walked right into Walter, and stopped abruptly as they were about to collide.  "Oh, Walter!  I'm so sorry, I was thinking about something."  The girl said, blushing in embarrassment.  She looked over him, noting how good looking he was that night in his formal clothes of light grey instead of the usual black and white of a Butler.  He had a surprisingly large amount of the house staff about him, and even some of the female soldiers.

"That is quite alright, Miss Seras."  He said with a laugh, happy to see her.  The man looked her over carefully, noting her change of clothing. The blonde was now in a red green top, with black leather pants and heavy makeup.  "You look very much like a vampire now."  The Butler noted with amusement.

Seras glanced down at herself and laughed, shrugging her shoulders.  "I sort of felt in the mood for something darker and sexier."  Her red eyes became anxious.  "Did I do okay?"  She whispered a little doubtfully.  It had always been that way to be uncertain of her own looks.  Oh sure, the male's loved her big breasts and long legs, but did they find her face pretty?  Her backside curvy?  And were they pleased with her personality?

Walter was a little surprised by the girl's question and wondered if she was fishing for compliments, then realized that he was talking to Miss Seras.  She was too innocent to be flirting with him and her big red eyes were concerned as she waited for his answer.  He smiled reassuringly and nodded.  "You look lovely."  The man murmured truthfully.  She grinned at him, delighted and he coughed in embarrassment.

'If you wished for a compliment, why not ask myself?'  Alucard drawled into her head, amused that his Childe was so self-conscious. She was beautiful with her soft blonde hair, her long legs and breasts that he could not wait to have his hands on.  But it was also her personality, her shyness and gentleness, the innocence and the way she cared for others.  The blonde would be a truly worthy vampire if she would but drink the blood.  Seras had the most powerful blood in the world flowing through her veins and once she became a No Life Queen, she would be absolutely delicious.  But even as she was right now, the ancient vampire was proud to call her Mate.

Seras started in surprise, then blinked and frowned.  Ask her Master?  Was he crazy?  Why the hell would she ever ask him that sort of a humiliating thing!  Then he would think that she was even more pathetic than she already was.  'No thank you Master, I know you'll say that I look terrible.  A wannabe vampire.'  The blonde retorted scathingly, knowing how mocking her Sire was.  She was trying to look attractive and had hoped that she had succeeded.  Walter thought so, but she would need more opinions to be certain.

'Mmm,'  He said thoughtfully.  'You do appear to be lacking confidence in your charms, Police Girl.'  The male murmured back in amusement, tone faintly mocking.  Alucard felt her embarrassment at her vanity, but knew that the girl truly lacked confidence.  She would soon learn that she was beautiful, as his Mate.  He would tell her every day, if need be, that she was the most beautiful creature in the world.

'See?'  The small vampire said in a cool tone, somehow disappointed in his answer.  But what had she really expected?  There was a sexual tension between them, but it didn't mean that he liked her body.  It just meant that she was an available female vampire and he felt lust.

Alucard chuckled richly at her reply and then he was silent for a long moment, as if thinking.  'You look-'  He broke off, deliberately stalling.  He knew that his female would be waiting breathlessly and couldn't help teasing her.

Seras was suddenly listening very intently to her Master's words, and she felt a rush of anxiety when he stopped.  What had he been going to say?  She slumped and rolled her red eyes skywards.  Of course it would be something bad!  The ancient vampire was not one for compliments.  Good god, what did she really care about his response anyway?  But the blonde had to admit that her heart was beating faster as she waited for him to go on.

'Mouth-watering.'  The male purred out hungrily, his lust burning through their minds.  And then he blocked her out, watching closely as she stood there with Walter.  His Childe knew that he wanted her, but Alucard did not want to frighten her with his lust to the point that the girl felt hunted and would keep running.  Not that the chase wasn't arousing, but if the girl was to become his lover, he wanted her to meet his passion, not merely submit because her body wanted something that her mind was rejecting.

The blonde stood there, with a completely shocked look on her face, eyes huge and then she moaned.  Had Alucard just said that to her?  He thought that she looked mouth-watering?  The girl's cheeks went a fiery red colour and she clapped her hands over them, utterly bewildered and stunned at the rush of pleasure and excitement his word had brought.  Was her Master really saying that to her?  Oh god, whatever was growing between them was starting to really scare her, because just him saying that he found her mouth-watering, made wetness pool in her panties and she was humiliated at the response, hoping that her Sire wouldn't find out.

"Are you alright, Miss Seras?"  Walter asked in concern, seeing her face go red with a flush and her hands went to her face, eyes dazed and stunned.  He suspected that Alucard had been speaking to her when the girl had gone suddenly quiet, eyes distant and now it appeared that the male had said something quite shocking!  He was afire with curiosity.  It had been utterly cleared to all watching that the ancient vampire had staked a claim on his Childe, and the only one who did not seem to realize it was the blonde.

Seras' mouth trembled and she breathed in deeply, trying to calm her racing heard.  Good lord.  The distant cold beautiful vampire, had actually said that his Childe was mouth-watering?  Had he meant it?  Alucard clearly had felt lust when they kissed and in the bathroom and kitchen, so he certainly found her attractive enough.  And the blonde wanted to kiss him again.  Her blush burned brighter and she felt like jumping around for joy.  But then the small vampire suddenly stopped, face falling.  What the hell did it matter anyway?  "It's nothing, Walter."  She told him, depressed.  The ancient vampire was toying with her, that was all.  She wanted to have sex, but not with someone who didn't even care about her.  What was between herself and the dark-haired male was attraction and just purely physical.

"Was it Alucard?  Did he say something wrong?"  The Butler pushed lightly, dying to know what the hell Alucard had said to evoke that sort of blush from the blonde.  She had looked stunned, embarrassed, happy, and then suddenly depressed.  It was amazing how much the other vampire could make this small girl feel.  Perhaps there was more going on between them than Sir Integra and himself had thought.  He was going to go and have a conversation with his Mistress as soon as Seras left him.

"Noooo."  The small vampire said doubtfully, drawing the word out.  It really didn't matter anyway, since her Master had been mocking her.  She was a female vampire, and the only one around Alucard, so it had been perhaps inevitable that the two started to have an attraction to each other.  As the blonde had not been around her Sire's company a lot over the last year, when they had finally been thrust together into the same room, the instinctive need had risen.  But she would not be used that way.   The ancient vampire clearly had a thing for his Master, and even if it wasn't lust, there was something there.  An attraction that was very clear.  The two had a long history, and Seras had only known the male for a year.  "It's nothing important."  She said to the Butler.

"Very well."  Walter murmured, hiding a smile.  The girl kept getting lost in some memory and he very much thought that it might be that searing kiss they had shared, that had fairly lit up the room with the sexual intensity. 

The two spoke for a while, noting new couples forming with the help of the free booze, and even remarking on a few poorly dressed soldier's who apparently didn't know how to apply makeup. 

Seras grinned at the conversation, thinking it was like talking to a female pal.  Walter had all the gossip in the mansion and army and he told her some interesting things.  She suddenly tilted her head back and eyed the mistletoe nearby with a thoughtful expression.  Surely it couldn't just be because it was another vampire, that experienced lust for the first time?  Was it encoded into her new DNA, or the fact that she coherently knew that she was kissing a mortal?

"You don't require another kiss from myself, do you, Miss Seras?"  Walter asked her suddenly, following her eyes.  He was not a young man anymore, but having been kissed several times that night had a way of going to a man's head. He was not entirely averse to pressing his lips to such a young, attractive blonde.  To his surprise, she looked shocked and blushed, then shook her head.

"Oh...no, Walter.  It won't do anything for me."  She mumbled absently and then became aware of a slightly hurt and stunned look being aimed her way.  She gasped and then put a hand on his arm, trying to sooth the man.  It wasn't his age at all!  "It isn't you!"  The blonde said hastily, anxious that she had hurt his feelings.  "My Master told me that now I am a vampire, I will only feel lust from another of my kind."  She explained.

The Butler breathed out in relief, having been somewhat unhappy at having his age come into question, but now it made perfect sense.  His gaze went from Seras across the room to where he could see Alucard standing at the same food table as his Childe had earlier, perhaps wondering if he missed food and what it tasted like?  The immortal's crimson eyes rose up to meet his and perfect dark brows were raised in mocking query.  Walter smiled slightly and then looked back at the small vampire, who was still clearly worried that she had said something wrong.  "I see."  He said, patting her hand.

Seras drew it back after a moment, feeling a faint sensation of menace from somewhere in the room and it seemed aimed at them.  Her Master?  The blonde could not see why the ancient vampire could object to her touching someone and she shook her head at her foolish thoughts.  He didn't care!  Even if they had kissed and her world had been blown away, it didn't mean that the male felt the same way.  The girl was pretty damned certain that he didn't.  "Yeah."  She muttered, a little embarrassed to be having that sort of conversation with a male old enough to be her Grand-Father.

"Do you want to talk about it, Miss Seras?"  He asked her gently, seeing the turmoil in her lovely red eyes. Despite the fact that it proclaimed the blonde to be a vampire, he did not find the eyes at all unattractive, despite the crimson colour.  She was still as innocent and kind as she had been in life, he had no doubt.

The small vampire nibbled on her lower lip for a long minute, red eyes showing her unhappiness and disbelief.  "I just can't believe it's that simple!"  She told him, wanting desperately to understand.  "It's just a kiss.  A touch.  So how can my body not be turned on now, even by someone I am clearly attracted to?"  The blonde demanded, voice rising a little.

Walter frowned, and then his face cleared as she realized that the girl was talking about the Captain.  "Mr. Bernadette, I presume?"  He said rather dryly, enjoying the blush that rose to her cheeks.  It was amazing that a vampire could still do something so charming and innocent.

"Yes."  She nodded firmly, looking about her worriedly in case someone might hear, and drawing slightly closer to the Butler.  "I like him.  But when we kissed I wanted to-"  The girl broke off, going rather pale and throwing a hunter look over her shoulder and the near vicinity.  "Throw up!"  She whispered fiercely.

The man was rather taken-aback at the admission, noting her anxious, sad eyes.  Oh, how terrible.  Everyone in the compound knew that Captain Bernadette and Miss Seras had an attraction for each other and were going out, but to hear her words was rather shocking.  "Why-?"  Walter started to ask, and then thought perhaps that the blonde did not want to discuss it further.

"Why did I get nauseas?"  Seras asked wryly, but there was pain in her red eyes.  She couldn't have the male that she had thought was fun and was a soldier like herself, but maybe being a lover with Alucard could fill the hole in her life where she craved a Mate.  "My Master said that I can only feel real lust with another of my kind, so kissing a human or being intimate with them doesn't turn me on.  Everyone I kissed tonight made me..." She swiftly broke off, remembering that the Butler had been one of those males that she locked lips with!

"It's quite alright, Miss Seras."  He responded with a small smile.  If it was something encoded into her new DNA as an immortal, the blonde couldn't help her body's reaction.  So, a vampire could only be aroused by another?  Which might explain why he had never heard from the staff or soldiers about a more intimate relationship going on between Pip and herself.  Ah, so that was why he had seen Alucard kiss his Childe earlier? Was he teaching the blonde a lesson, or something more?  As the only two immortals in Hellsing, it might be quite natural for the two to gravitate to each other.  If a vampire could only be aroused by his own kind, and the ancient vampire had never sought company as far as he was aware, then it had only been a matter of time before sparks flew between the only two immortals in the Hellsing Organization.

"I have to be sure of it."  Seras said suddenly, flashing Walter a smile and then turning and walking towards the mistletoe.  Her red eyes were already flickering about at the male's nearby, assessing who might be the best choice.  She just had to kiss one more guy, someone who was attractive, and then the blonde would be satisfied about what her Master had said.

'You will not kiss another male!'  Alucard said harshly into her mind, startling the girl.  He would not allow his female to kiss another!

The blonde faltered, stopping a few feet from her destination.  She looked about her for the male, but was unable to spot him.  'Master?'  She said incredulously, eyes wide.  Was he seriously stopping her from kissing someone?  But why?  Just because they had an attraction to each other, did not mean that he owned her lips!

'Have you not learned already that a human will not arouse you?'  The ancient vampire said furiously, his anger scorching her mind.  He watched from across the room, slightly out of sight, but the blonde was in the reflection of a large mirror.  It infuriated the male that his Childe was willing to try and kiss someone else.  She was his.

'I need to just kiss one more male, to be certain.'  She retorted, chin rising proudly.  What the hell did her Master care about her locking lips with someone anyway?  Just because he had made her a vampire, didn't give him the right to dictate who she was around.  He wasn't her Father or something!  The blonde wilfully ignored their sexy encounters and chose to focus on the more rebellious feeling inside of her.

Alucard was both amused and furious at the blonde's thoughts.  Oh, he was nowhere near being her Father, as his Childe would find out soon enough.  She was going to be his Mate.  'Police Girl, if you require kisses, I will provide them.'  He replied in a silky tone, lust making his cock hard.  He couldn't wait to be between her thighs, fucking her hard.  Seras was going to scream in pleasure before the night was out, and she would be claimed by herself.

Seras' jaw dropped and her red eyes went wide in shock.  What?  Was her Master serious?!  He was offering to kiss her himself?  The girl's heartbeat picked up and began to thunder in her chest, her cheek flushing bright red.  But then she realized that he was just taunting her and cursed herself for being stupid.  'Stop mocking me!'  She shouted at him, gaze going about the immediate vicinity again to spot a likely male.  She caught the eyes of a male, who appeared to be one of her soldier's and he grinned at her.  The girl smiled back and began to walk towards him, but a flash of rage in her mind had her stopping dead.

'You will not kiss him.'  Her Master hissed out, his crimson eyes flashing.  His bold Childe took another step, her eyes locked on the soldier's and he prepared to step in, even if it would make her angry.  She was confused and didn't know that he wanted her as a Mate.  His rage almost went out of control as he felt like going over and eviscerating the male who had dared to tempt what was his.

The small vampire was utterly flabbergasted at his fury in her mind, and she flinched back from it, confused.  'Why?'  The blonde cried, fists clenched and eyes frustrated.  What possible reason did he have for stopping her?  Just because he wanted to?   Because he lusted for her himself?  Her Sire's rage was replaced by something that made every hair on her body stand up.  Possessiveness.  Seras was stunned to feel it, eyes wide.  She suddenly whirled about and stormed from the room, heading for the balcony.

Alucard was satisfied that the girl had felt his claim on her and smirked as his frustrated, angry Childe headed out of the room.  And he followed her swiftly, with a growing look of hunger in his eyes.  It was time to show Seras who she belonged with.  It would be his kisses that would pleasure her.  He couldn't wait to kiss his female lips again, and caress the body he had been pressed up against under the mistletoe.
