Love's Sharp Thorns by Kinosha Shinigami

Walter did look a bit sad, "Do you think she will get better over time? I hope she doesn't have to cut herself anymore, she is such a young and vibrant soul. Alucard, seriously, could you fall inlove again?"

Alucard crushed the empty packet in his hand, "Only time will tell, you worried that I will get lonely or something?"

Walter sighed and shook his head, "I am more worried about her than you, she could really use a keeper. She does seem more high spirited today and that is what matters the most. She is quite different from Integra, kind of unbelievable they share a blood line, isn't it?"

Walter looked over just in time to see Jade face plant into the ground infront of her. Alucard chuckled as Jade blinked quickly standing and dusting herself off, "Uh, that didn't happen." She looked around quickly and noticed something odd, why in the heavens was there a large golden cross buried under the ground? She knew Anderson's was silver so he couldn't have been his and it looked quite older. Jade reached for it when Alucard and Walter walked up. They both looked puzzled and squatted down to look as well. Jade looked up not having touched it yet, "Walter, who do you think this belongs to?"

Walter shrugged and was about to speak when he got an overwelming feeling of dread, "Alucard, Jade, we are not alone anymore." A loud disenbodied cackle echoed through the countryside leaving Walter, Alucard and Jade puzzled.

Alucard looked at Walter over the top of his glasses, "Get your stuff quickly, I do not think we are welcome here anymore. Tis a pity, I could use a good bit of fun on such a lovely night. I do however feel the sun coming quickly and would rather be indoors when it decides to make itself known." Walter nodded and packed up his few belongings. They were gone within two minutes and back home just as the sun hit the front door of the home.

Walter held his gut as he looked about, "Jade's room? I do suppose it has the best protection from the sun. My room I believe is two doors down from here and I am quite tired so I will take my leave of you two." He bowed low to Jade and smiled, "Tomorrow night, Miss Jadeous, sleep well and don't let the vampires bite."

He chuckled at his own joke but was gone before Alucard could make a retort. Alucard sighed, "I might need to give that Angel of Death a good beating." Jade giggled before trying to hide a yawn. Alucard looked at Jade and smiled, "I suppose I should be going to my own room now but I do not know if you will be safe while I sleep. What to do?"

Jade blushed slightly as she tossed her coat on the floor holding the last blood packet in her hand, "I suppose you should find a safe place to sleep." She tossed the packet to him before kicking off her shoes and tossing weapons onto her coat, "You may sleep in here if you wish but you must sleep on the floor." She unbuttoned her pants and undid her bra without removing her shirt, "I have really cold feet and I might just be inclined to put them on you." She lifted one foot pulling off a sock and lifted the other yanking off that sock as well, "Ice feet, that is what they are, then again, maybe you like icey feet." She walked towards Alucard swaying her hips more than normal. Her right fang over her bottom lip, "I bet you would love that, wouldn't you?" Mere inches from his face she grabbed the front of his shirt. A smirk moved across his lips before she tightened her grip and tossed him through the still open door from their departure earlier, "Go to your own bed already, gods, you would think I was a child." Jade slammed the door with some force and leaped onto her bed nuzzling down into the blankets.

Alucard blinked looking quite surprised from his seat on the floor of her office, "Did…SHE JUST TOSSED ME AWAY!!!" He started laughing and phased through the floor to his room and stared at his coffin. It still hadn't been cleaned and Jade seemed to have just forgotten that. His smirk grew as he phased back into her room standing next to her bed, 'Let's see how she likes uncontrolable dreams.'

Flashes of skin seemed to appear, skin with blood on them, torsos, arms, legs and backs. What was going on? The smell of sweat, blood and….oh my god what was going on!? A laugh, an all familiar laugh could be heard as the flashes were her body and a male body. Her skin was aflame and sensations she hadn't felt were arising. The feeling of fingernails down her side and a tongue over her neck. Something wasn't right but felt oh so perfectly all at once. The feel of...

Jade shot up in bed as she felt arms tighten around her. A chill ran up her spine causing her to collide with the wall behind her as she saw a, dressed only in black boxerbriefs, Alucard looking puzzled. Jade shook slightly, "I thought I told you not to sleep in here! You gave me quite a fright!"

Alucard yawned streaching, "My coffin still has silver in it, remember? Plus, I don't have a warm body to hug in my sleep."

Jade shook her head and sighed before laying back down and sighing, "Alright, just for tonight, tomorrow, you MUST get a new coffin or fix your exsisting one. I won't have you sleeping in my bed like you're my lo…I just won't have you sleeping in here anymore."

"You were going to say lover, weren't you? Is there something my little master isn't telling me? Bad dream?" Alucard purred at her as he wrapped his arms around her again pulling her to his chest, "I can make it come true, just ask and you shall receive."

His whisper against her ear made her shiver even more, "Alucard, just go to sleep." He did sleep but she laid awake trying to shake the dream of forbidden desire.

The next night Alucard awoke to find Jade curled up against him with her lips against his throat. He smiled not wanting to wake her and closed his eyes again to pretend he was asleep as he felt Jade snuggle closer her hands on the middle of his back and their chests flush. She was so soft that he was having a hard time trying to remain calm. He could deal with legions of undead but a female body against his was pure torture. Jade licked her lips and dug her nails into his back slightly as she was dreaming. Alucard open his eyes trying to remain calm but somethings just were impossible as Jade sunk her teeth into his neck. His eyes went crimson as he pulled Jade from himself tearing his flesh slightly, "Master."

Jade blinked tasting the coppery liquid and bits of flesh and looked horrified, "I didn't hurt you did I? I was having a bad dream about someone trying to do bad things to me and I reacted the only way I thought I could. I am really sorry." She wiggled free from his grasp and began holding her shirt tail to his wound exposing most of her stomach and the bottoms of her breasts.

Alucard shivered lightly and smirked, "One shouldn't do that unless they have a longer shirt." He couldn't stop his hands from touching her middle. Jade blushed but didn't stop him as she noticed the blood had stopped. She dropped her shirt tail and stared at Alucard, 'His eyes are such a pretty red, I wonder if they do this often?' Alucard smiled laying his head against her chest and closed his eyes, "So soft."

Jade looked twice as red now as she heard a knock at the door, "Come in!"

Walter walked in and blinked, "Miss Jadeous, do you…uh…need a moment alone?" Walter started to back out.
"WAIT! I don't know how to get him to stop, I accidently bit his neck and now he has gone touchy feely. ARG, I think I feel drool, WALTER!!"

Walter tried not to laugh but failed miserably as he shook his head and walked over offering the packet he was taking down to Alucard's room, "Alucard, you must be thirsty, be glad he isn't being violent towards you. Bloodrage is a very fickle thing and he must really like you to start drooling." Alucard took the packet releasing Jade and walking over to a window opening the curtains.

Jade noticed how his eyes were returning to normal and blinked, "Bloodrage? What happens if he doesn't like me?"

Alucard smiled and turned towards Jade with half a packet of blood still in his hand, "I would rip you to pieces with my bare hands and teeth, it isn't a pleasant sight. I rarely go into bloodrage if it makes you feel better. I am sorry for the way I reacted, I haven't had a woman EVER bite my neck. It actually was quite pleasurable, I may just have to do it another time."
Jade looked like she might pass out from how red she was as she adjusted her top and looked at Walter, "Well, uh, shall we go find something to eat?" Walter chuckled and held his elbow out to her. Jade yanked on her pants from yesterday and grabbed Walter's offered arm. She wanted to distance herself from Alucard's playful picking.
