Alucard stared down at her, feeling her trembling with desire in his arms. "Master…take me…please…" she whispered desperately.

Seras sighed as he lifted her up as If she were weightless, shifting her against his hips as her legs gripped around him tightly. He stepped forward and slammed her body up against the wall, a husky growl escaping his lips. With fumbling hands Seras started to pull down his pants, just enough so that she could touch him. Then she began to lift his shirt, licking his chest all the way up. So long…she wanted his taste…needed to feel this...to feel something other than the pain and the shame inside of her. There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story within yourself, and the longer it resides the further it eats away at you. But for now, for just this moment, she wanted to forget and disappear.

Alucard could not stop himself, a twisted smile ripped across his face and he said, "I'm not sure I'm willing to just give in, Police Girl. After all, you have tormented me with waiting for so long, perhaps I should torture you instead?"

He buried his face in her chest and Seras gasped when she felt his fangs pressing against her clothing, but he did not bite. Instead he tore open her uniform with his teeth, laughing insanely as she became exposed and her face reddened. Their eyes darkened and he grew impatient, gently lowering Seras to the floor and ripping away the rest of her clothes furiously. She arched against his body, no words needed anymore. Leaning up, she captured his mouth and their tongues fought viciously, a moan escaping her when suddenly his fingers entered her, pumping madly as she bucked helplessly in response. "No more!" she exclaimed, surprised at the confidence her need had given her. "I want You."

With a groan he entered her quickly, gentle at first but losing himself as he sped up, becoming rougher and rougher. Seras cried out in pleasure, but an uneasiness was seeping its way into her mind. Her eyes closed and she began to see it- the dream…

The walls were white and the contrast of blood red against the brightness was painful to her eyes. Then the blood began to drip and she looked up, knowing what was lurking above her but unable to avoid it. A dozen small children stared down at her with the whites of their eyes…only the weren't "complete"…instead it was a face here and there, a bit of an arm, a piece of a leg or torso…the blood pouringfrom the black shadow that was containing them to the ceiling. Then one of the tiny mouths opened…and began to cry…

"No!" Seras screamed at the top of her lungs, bringing Alucard out of his state of raw bloodlust.

The No-life King stared down at his Police Girl…she looked broken; crumbled inside of herself. And she was sobbing, the blood smeared all over her face. He stopped and pulled out of her, cradling her against his body. "We should not have done that," he said softly, a note of tenderness only Seras had ever heard; though rarely. "I knew you were unstable, it is my fault."

"No," Seras choked out between sobs; almost horrified by his tenderness though she needed it. "I pushed you Master, I am sorry. I wasn't ready but I wanted to be…I love you and that makes it hard to not be close to you."

Her Master frowned with disappointment. "After all this time, is love all that you feel? It is so human, so generic and simple a word," he paused, as if in deep thought. "We are going to live forever, and I hope that it is an eternity we will share. A loyalty that is not bound by time or papers…do you not find that to be much more intense a bond then the silly notion of love?"

Seras was silenced by her own shock. She had never thought of it that way, but was so relieved to realize he really had chosen her to be by his side. "I'm sorry Master," Seras smiled softly, her tears ceasing for the moment. "I suppose I still have the limited vocabulary of a human."

Alucard laughed for a second, but his face quickly grew serious. "Now, I think it is time you told me exactly what is going on, otherwise I will get it out of you by force."

Seras shivered at the dark tone of his voice…and looked into his eyes in fear…
