Good Evening,

Sorry, I didn't have any time this week to finish chapter seventeen of Weak For Her.

This fic is Alucard x Seras x Sebastian.

Oxford Not Brogues

Our Darling Pet

The thick, steel chain attached to her stainless steel collar rattled noisily as Seras landed hard on the floor. A red welt swelled on her cheek and pulsed with pain. Her forlorn blue eyes cracked open. For several seconds, her vision was a little hazy and she could taste blood in her mouth. Her tongue curiously lapped at the throbbing lump on her busted lip, trying to clean away the blood before any of the vampires caught scent of it. Her chains rattled softly when she finally pushed herself up into a sitting position and craned her head back to look up at the vampire who had punished her.

Lord Evans was a tall man with messy, shoulder length brown hair and smoldering, moss green eyes. He wasn't pale like the other vampires; he had this strange pink hue to his skin. He was one of the most attractive men in the castle; all the females flocked to him, and, unfortunately for Seras, he was also one of the strongest. He had muscles the size of her head. Every vein in those muscular arms pulsed vigorously with his fists clenched so tightly. Thankfully, she was used to getting smacked around, especially by this arsehole. She pulled her legs under her so she could sit back on her heels and bow her head in submit to the vampire before her.

"I apologize, sir." Seras murmured her voice low and steady and not holding an ounce of sincerity. She kept her head and eyes lowered, keeping her gaze focused on his boots. The upper-class hated it when the servants or slaves were so bold to look them dead in the eye. Her lips tightened into a thin line and before she knew it, she was doing what she shouldn't have been. Her eyes boldly flickered up towards his face, almost like she was challenging him to see what he would do with a slave looking at him like she was actually his equal. At first, he didn't take note of it. But as the seconds ticked by and she continued to stare him down, a fury appeared in his green orbs.

"First you walk in front of me and now you dare lay those filthy eyes upon me?! Who in the hell do you think you are, servant?!" The man bellowed at her before he backhanded her a second time, this time, getting the other cheek. Seras grunted as she fell against the wall. His ring had caught and snagged her lip in the process and now some blood smeared her cheek. Lord Evans stood up straighter with a foul look in his eyes as he casually raised his hand to lick the blood from his ring. His eyes glimmer a dark red for a split second and he dug his fang into his bottom lip with a soft moan. Once he got back in control of his bloodlust, he threw out a hand. "Just keep out of my way!" He snapped and then slammed his boot into her chest so she landed on her back hard. Afterwards, he walked on by, leaving her there in a fetal position.

The little human cracked back opens her eyes to watch him walk away. Bastard, She thought, even though she knew how dangerous it was to think such things because any one of those vampires could pick up on her thoughts at any point in time. She was just lucky that he wasn't one of those vampires. And she always found it so funny that she was referred to as a servant when in fact she was a slave. A servant was treated with a little more respect; a slave was treated like shit, like she wasn't even a person. They all knew she was a human slave, so why call her a servant? Was there guilt there after all in those bloody heathens? Did they want to remain ignorant towards the fact that she was a slave and so call her a servant to make themselves feel better?

Using the back of her hand, she wiped away the smeared blood from her cheek and lips. Her tongue then came back out to lathe her wound and clean up the rest of her blood. With a deep sigh, Seras climbed back to her feet and stumbled a little. Her bare feet lightly smacked against the cold concrete flooring until she finally caught her bearings and stabled herself. Afterwards, she let herself fall back to lean against the wall for much needed support. Her eyelids were so heavy, making it hard to keep them open. She declined her head and closed her eyes. She was incredibly tired, physically and emotionally. She has been for ten years now.

There hasn't been a day that's gone by when she doesn't want to scream on the top of her lungs and cry her eyes out. She was constantly angry anymore and annoyed by everyone, even the humans. The little human had no motivation or the will to live, and yet, she was still here. Going day by day, taking baby steps, and wandering these halls like a ghost as if life was going to change miraculously for her. But it won't, and she knew that; she was deeply aware of that fact. Once a human was sent here they weren't leaving this place alive. Should she consider herself lucky that she wasn't a meal for the vampires though? Was it wrong of her to envy those who have died to the fangs of a vampire? Even though it seemed like a slow and painful death, at least there was an end to the torment and the crushing fact that she was a slave forever.

Seras gave a deep sigh followed by a long yawn. Tired, She thought groggily. She was so desperate to get to her room and sleep, but she continued to stand there with no impulse to move from her spot because she was just so exhausted. She knew that wasn't very wise of her. Vampires were starting to rise from their coffins, human slaves were supposed to return to their quarters so the vampire servants can take over. Any human caught in the corridors at night either ended up severely beaten, raped, or feasted upon. She was used to getting beaten and several times those horrible, loathsome vampires had tried raping her, but she had dealt with them in a way that would get her sent to the executioner in a heartbeat. Thankfully, vampires were an easy clean up during the day.

The little human jolted back to reality when she heard footsteps and the sound of two people talking. She cracked open her eyes, pulled back her head, and glanced off to the side. To her horror it was the King of Vampires, Alucard, and the Prince of Hell, Sebastian. Her heart skipped a beat, her face paled, and she stiffened in pure fear. She was unable to keep her eyes off of them even though all they were doing was walking down the corridor talking. They hadn't noticed her and there was no way in hell she wanted to be noticed by them. She heard such horrifying things about them. They were worse than all the vampires combined in this place. They were so strong and powerful that it was actually abnormal in their world; it was truly monstrous and frightening. They were the last people she wanted to get a punishment from, so, she quickly bowed her head out of respect just in case they did notice her and saw that she wasn't bowing.

Alucard and Sebastian still didn't look her way though, thankfully. They walked on until they were gone from sight. Once she was all alone again, her heart started racing in her chest and she panted softly. She couldn't recall the last time she felt fear towards a vampire or demon like that before. She was normally used to the vampires, but seeing them had chilled her down to her bone. She had seen them before in the castle, but never so close. Automatically, her blue irises flickered to the side to stare at the corridor they had disappeared down. Never so close, She thought to herself again as she recalled the way their black hair swayed gently with every step, the way their pale skin practically glistened in the light, and how their dark eyes gleamed with mockery…and something more. Was it her or was it kind of getting hot in here? Her face felt so heated and her body was trembling, but she didn't think it was from fear this time. Seras raised her hands to cup her blushing cheeks. Why was she blushing? She wondered in horror. Yes, okay, they were sexy! She agreed with herself. But they're monsters! You should be repulsed, not turned on!

The small blonde shook that thought a way as she stood up straighter and once more glanced back at where she had last seen them. It was their eyes. She thought to herself. There was a glisten in their eyes that…drew her to them. It then made her wonder what would have happened if they had made eye contact with her. Seras shuddered while her blush darkened further. You need to get out of there before more vampires start showing up. She reminded herself. The little human gave a small nod of her head before checking her area to make sure she was in the clear. Seeing that she was still alone, she hurriedly made her way to the slaves' quarters without bumping into another vampire.

Minutes later Seras found herself in the washroom with eighteen other female slaves. The youngest slave there was twelve with a limp in her right leg and the oldest being seventy-two. At times Seras didn't know who the true monster was, the vampires she serves each and every single day or the humans outside of these walls. For at least two hundred years, humanity has known about vampires. They lived in fear of these creatures and sacrificed their own people just so they can live in harmony. Those who were too old, disabled, a criminal, orphaned, or had a low I.Q. were sent to different colonies to be slaves or food for the vampires. In her eyes, they, the vampires and humans, were both foul creatures that she loathed with every fiber of her being. And she hoped that they rotted together in the lowest pits of hell.

Seras eyed the group of females as they gathered in the center of the room, like always, and started laughing. Usually after a long, hard day, they liked to relax and blow off some steam by having dance offs. There were some okay dancers, a lot of terrible dancers, and one or two amazing dancers, but the performance was never judged. They just all had a good time. Seras never participated though. She always watched from the bench or tub while the others had their fun. Her eyes flickered away from the group as she removed her light grey tunic. It was such a pain putting on and taking off shirts with that damn collar and chain on. But ten years of having it, it was just a part of her everyday life and so she didn't pay much mind to it anymore.

She threw her clothes into the hamper before she carefully wrapped the chain around her neck so it wouldn't get wet while she bathed. Afterwards, she stepped into the cold, built-in bathtub and got to scrubbing. Another pain of hers was trying to wash her neck. She squeezed the wash cloth beneath her collar and tried washing that area of flesh to the best of her abilities. While Seras was washing and the others danced their hearts out and their problems away, an older woman walked in looking deeply disturbed. With the look on the older slave's face, Seras instantly knew what she was going to say. The old woman's eyes flickered to the large crowd and she raised her hands to try and gain their attention.

"Listen up," The old woman spoke. The small blonde glanced at the crowd that didn't see or hear the old lady. "Excuse me," The old woman continued to try. "Everyone," But no one could hear her over the laughter or murmuring.

"Oy!" Seras then exclaimed, gaining the crowd's attention. The small blonde then gestured her head towards the older woman who bowed her head in gratitude.

"Thank you," She murmured before she glanced back at the now anxious looking crowd.

"What's going on?" Someone murmured.

"Tomorrow night his majesty is holding a grand ball." The old woman announced. Within seconds, the room was filled with soft murmuring. Grand balls were the worst of times for slaves. They were expected to attend the ball and serve the vampires, but, unfortunately, a lot of slaves are killed during these events. Vampires are far more hungry and rowdy whenever a ball was held.

"What?!" The twelve year old cried out with tears in her eyes. She hobbled forward with clenched fists and stared up at the old woman in hope that she was just pulling some horrible prank on them. "I can't go! I don't want to go! I don't want to get eaten!" The child started to cry. Hot tears poured down her face and her sobs filled the small room. "Please, I don't want to go!"

"You won't," The old woman responded with a soft smile as she placed a friendly hand on the girl's shoulders. The child calmed a little to stare up at the old woman in bewilderment. "We're going to escape before anyone gets hurt or killed."

"What?!" A lot of the other slaves exclaimed.

"How?!" A middle-aged woman cried out as she stepped up behind the child. The old woman looked back at her with an even wider smile.

"Easy, all the vampires will be piled in the throne room, only a few will be out in the foyer, but will be of no concern to us. We will all meet up in the kitchen at a certain time and take the backway out." The old woman revealed her 'great' plan to them with a sparkle in her eyes. The room was silent for a long minute while they all just gaped at the senile, old woman.

"You're kidding right? We just walk right out?" A young woman asked her with a quirked brow and a hand on her curvy hip. "We just walk out undetected?"

"And what if there are vampire servants in the kitchen? What do we do then?" Someone else asked. Seras listened intently while she climbed out of her cold bath and toweled herself off.

"I think you're all forgetting something very vital, our collars." Another woman reminded them. "They have a tracking device. They'll hunt us down and kill us for sure." The old woman merely chuckled and shook her head.

"Fear not, my darlings, you worry far too much. Today, I was serving Lord Fern. Nasty temper that man has and we all know he's not the brightest crayon in the box. Like the fool he is, he showed me exactly where the ring of keys is for our collars. I wasn't able to steal it today, but for sure while the party is going on, I will be able to." The old woman told them with a nod of her head and a proud smile on her face. Someone scoffed at this.

"What were you doing serving him? Why wasn't he asleep?" Another woman asked.

"And he just showed you where the keys are?" The sassy young woman from before asked and she rolled her eyes. "Please, even Lord Fern isn't that stupid."

"No, he's not." The old woman agreed with a shake of her head. "But he is forgetful. Lord Fern called for me personally,"

"Why?" Someone instantly cut her off. A blush appeared on the old woman's cheeks then.

"Well, uh, it's not exactly unusual. He asks for me at least one or twice a week because he has trouble sleeping." The old woman murmured, looking incredibly embarrassed.

"But why does he call for you?" The sassy woman asked. The old woman then sighed and hung her head.

"Because I remind him of his mother and it comforts him to have me sit with him until he falls asleep." The old woman admitted in a whisper. This caused for everybody to laugh but Seras and the old woman. The small blonde was now watching and listening from across the room as she took her own time getting dressed and ready for bed. "Yes, yes, calm down. It's not all that funny. We've all done embarrassing things for these damn vampires. At least Lord Fern is a polite elder man who doesn't take advantage of us unlike some of the other vampires." She then sighed and shook her head once more.

"Anyway, this morning he asked of me to allow him to rest his head on my lap while I played with his hair and sung to him." The old woman continued. "Fortunately, for once I'm actually grateful, my back was extremely bad today, so he had the good gracious to make me more comfortable by taking off my collar and allowing me to rest back on his bed while I hummed him to sleep." She was once again interrupted.

"So, where are these keys?" The sassy woman asked.

"Lord Fern instructed me to retrieve the keys myself. They're in the top drawer in Lord Alucard's study. I, of course, had to bypass that bloody demon in order to get the keys. I swear, Michaelis is a guard dog for the King. He's always at Alucard's side and protects the King's personal possessions." The old woman scoffed.

"Don't you know?" The sassy woman laughed with a wide smirk on his face. "He's not just the King's guard dog, they're lovers."

"What?" The twelve year asked.

"Seriously?" Another woman asked.

"Now that you mention it, I suppose it is kind of obvious." Someone murmured.

"Are you kidding?!" A third woman spoke up. "Alucard and Michaelis are both asexual."

"That's not true," A fourth said. "I saw Alucard with loads of women. But I would believe it if Michaelis had a male lover."

"What's a lover?" The twelve year old asked, but was ignored.

"I wasn't able to get the keys from him, but I know of where they are." The old woman continued on over the other chattering women. "Tomorrow, the king and his guard dog will be at the ball, so I'll be able to swipe the keys. Around nine o'clock we'll all meet in the kitchen, remove our collars, and leave out the servant's entrance."

"But," The twelve year old muttered with tears in her eyes. "Where will I go? My parents sent me here! I don't have anywhere to go!" The sassy woman wrapped her arms around the scared child and pulled her close.

"We'll stick together! Screw everyone else who either sent us here or turned a blind eye! Everyone here in this room is your family now!" The sassy woman told her with a bright smile.

"Yeah!" Other women exclaimed in agreeance. Seras finally rose from where she was sitting in the room and participated in the conversation.

"The only issue to your plan is that you don't know for sure if all of the vampires will be collected in the throne room or if any of them will stay long enough for you to escape. And servants will be coming in and out of the kitchen at all times to get more bottles of blood or wine." The small blonde reminded them. The women all gave her such a strange look, never having heard her actually speak before. "The only time we know for sure that all vampires will be accounted for in the throne room is at the very beginning of the party. Within the hour they will all dissipate out of boredom or sexual arousal, whatever."

"How do you know they will all be gathered there at the beginning of the party?" A woman within the crowd asked.

"Out of respect for the king," The small blonde answered. "You don't show up to someone's home and not show your face at the party. They will linger in the throne room for a good hour or two and then either explore or head to a room with their lover."

"We have an hour before people start leaving the throne room. That should be plenty of time for us to escape." Another woman stated.

"No, it will take a while for everyone to gather in the kitchen at the right time. And who knows how long it will take for her to get the keys without getting detected by vampires or Alucard's guard dog." Seras responded while she gestured a hand towards the old woman. "And again, servants will be coming in and out of that kitchen within the hour. If they're distracted from their chores, they won't leave the throne room."

"So," The sassy woman muttered with a shrug. "What do we do?" She then glanced back at the old woman for advice.

"It's obvious," Seras interrupted with a shake of her head. "Within the first hour of the party, there has to be a distraction to keep all vampires there and interested long enough so everyone can escape."

"A distraction?" The twelve year old girl murmured and she cocked her head to the side.

"A distraction would aid us greatly," The old woman agreed while she thought about it. "But, how are we going to distract them?"

"When does the party start?" Seras asked.

"People start showing up at seven," The old woman answered instantly.

"At 7:30 there will be a distraction then. At that time, everyone should make their way to the kitchen." The small blonde advised. "At what time do you think Alucard will be at the party?"

"The King should always be on time, so he should be present before others start arriving which would be a little before seven." The old woman muttered while she nervously wrung her hands.

"Then the guard dog will be with him meaning that you can sneak off and get the key from his study." Seras stated with a nod of her head and a confident look in her eyes.

"So, a distraction will be made at 7:30 and during that time we'll all gather in the kitchen, unlock our collars, and escape." The sassy woman broke down their plan just to be sure. Seras nodded her head again.

"Yes," She agreed before gesturing a head towards the twelve year old girl. "And she should hide in one of the cupboards in the kitchen to keep out of trouble and away from the vampires."

"That's great and all, but what about the distraction?" The sassy woman pushed. "Who or what is going to distract them long enough?"

"I've thought about that, too." Seras murmured. Depression slowly seeped into her blue irises before she looked away from the crowd of women uncomfortably. "I don't have anything or anybody outside of these walls. Honestly, I think I fear the world far more than I fear these vampires. Even if I did manage to fight off this fear and escape with you guys, I have no desire to live among those wretched beings that sent us here."

"So, what, you're sacrificing yourself?" The sassy woman asked with a questioning brow.

"There's no need for sacrifices," The old woman announced. "We'll stick together, in here and outside of these walls."

"Without a distraction, your chances of escaping are slim." Seras noted with a shake of her head. "Besides, either I sacrifice myself, die by the hands of a vampire, and my life actually held some kind of meaning or I die by my own hands out there in the world and my life was meaningless." The room was deathly silent while they all gave her a bizarre, but concerned look.

"What do you plan on doing then to distract them?" The sassy woman asked.

"I don't know," The small blonde murmured while she ruffled her hair in frustration. "I suppose slit my wrists. Since I'm still a virgin the scent of my blood should drive them into a bloodlust. They'll be too busy tearing into me to worry about the other slaves' whereabouts."

"No!" The twelve year old girl cried out and she bounced forward to pout her lips at Seras. "They don't have to kill you! You can distract them in another way!" Some of the women shook their heads at the naïve child.

"And how do you plan she does that?" The sassy woman asked with a wave of her hand and a roll of her eyes. "They're vampires; all they care about is sinking their teeth into hot flesh and devouring blood like the filthy monsters they are."

"She's a virgin, maybe an orgy will do." A woman suggested jokingly.

"Dancing!" The little girl exclaimed with a bright smile. "She can dance to distract them!"

"Dancing?" A few of the women murmured.

"But she doesn't dance," The sassy woman reminded the little girl.

"She never joined! We don't know if she can dance or not!" The little girl retorted. "Think about it! A young, pretty woman dancing hypnotically will attract anyone's attention!" The sassy woman folded her arms over her medium-sized chest and gave a deep sigh.

"That's really all up to her." The woman responded before she glanced over at Seras. "Do you want to try dancing?"

"I beg of you, dear, try dancing first." The old woman pleaded. "I won't be able to live with myself knowing that you died just so we could escape. Please, please, try dancing. They have no reason to attack or kill you if you're just dancing."

"But we don't even know if she can dance!" The sassy woman repeated.

"There's only one way to find out!" The little girl declared while she bounced around in her spot. "Dance for us!"

"What?!" Seras exclaimed with wide eyes. How did it resort to this?! She questioned in disbelief.


Seras was absolutely mortified to see how many vampires were packed in the throne room. The room was filled with soft murmuring and chatter. The orchestra was settled on the far side of the room, preparing their instruments for their performance. Servants stood in the back of the room in a straight line up against the wall holding silver platters with glasses of blood. They waited patiently for the party to begin to serve the guests. The small blonde stood nervously in the foyer, close to the doorway that led to the throne room. Everything was so far going according to plan, except for one little thing. Where in the hell were the King and his guard dog?! Without them, the plan was foiled! The little human glanced back at the grandfather's clock in the foyer. It was almost 7:10. At this time, the old woman was supposed to get the keys, but she can't do that until they knew where the king and guard dog were located.

"You look troubled," Someone purred to her right. "Almost like you're up to something," Seras nervously turned her head away from the person who was speaking to her. She didn't know who it was, but it had to be a vampire because the slaves, men and women, knew about the plan.

"I'm just…highly nervous, my Lord." She whispered and bowed her head to whoever she was speaking to so he wouldn't punish her for her lack of respect. "I'm meant to perform tonight."

"Perform?" Another man asked causing the girl's eyes to widen and for her heart to speed up in her chest. Seras glanced at the men from the corner of her eye, but avoided their gazes. Her face paled drastically and her stomach churned. Once she realized that she was speaking to the king and his guard dog, the little human dropped into a low bow. She closed her eyes tightly and kept her head lowered.

"I'm sorry, your majesty, I didn't know who I was talking with!" The small blonde quickly excused her bad manners.

"What do you mean perform?" Sebastian asked her again in a stern voice. "I was never notified of this change. Who authorized this performance of yours?" Seras flinched from the severity in his voice. Was she about to be punished? Was the plan ruined? He sounded so annoyed. She had no idea that he was the one who actually planned these events.

"I don't know who authorized it, Sir. I'm just doing what I was told." The little human lied and prayed that they wouldn't be able to tell. The demon narrowed his red orbs on her knowingly. Within seconds of her lie, smirks crept onto the males' faces.

"Very well then," Sebastian spoke in a much calmer voice that brought relief to the small blonde.

"In that case, we can't wait for your performance." Alucard purred in a low, seductive voice before they walked by her and entered the throne room. Once she was alone again, she slowly exhaled all of the air in her lungs from her mouth and allowed her trembling to begin. She never wanted to encounter those two ever again! All they did was speak to her and she was shaking like a leaf!

"Damn monsters," The girl hissed under her breath and she clenched her fists in her lap. She peeked back into the room and watched as that smug bastard, the King of Vampires, took a seat on his throne with that damn demon standing at his side like the loyal dog he was. Immediately, a servant was at their side to offer the King his goblet full of fresh virgin's blood. Alucard swiftly lifted the goblet off of the silver platter and brought it to his lips. "Choke on it," Seras hissed under her breath with a dark look in her eyes. As soon as those words left her lips, the monster paused and his eyes met with hers. The small blonde instantly stiffened and her eyes flew open wide. Had he heard her?! The grin that crept onto his face as he raised his glass to her told her that he had heard her venomous words. Getting a tingle down her spine, Seras bolted to her feet and she ran out of the foyer. What she missed as she fled was Alucard cackling before he leaned to the side to whisper something to the demon. Afterwards he took a swig from his goblet as Sebastian walked off to do his assigned task.

Seras barged into the kitchen where the old woman waited with the sassy, younger woman. The small blonde breathed heavily from a small panic attack while she leaned against the counter and tried to catch her bearings. The two women in the room gave each other a peculiar look before glancing back at Seras.

"Is there something wrong?" The sassy woman asked with a quirked brow. The little human shook her head while her heart finally started to calm and returned to a normal pattern.

"No, everything is fine." Seras muttered, but even she wasn't sure about that. "The King and the guard dog are in the throne room. You can go and get the key now." The two women smiled while the old woman nodded her head and then she went off to go do her part of the mission.

"Why are you out of breath?" The sassy woman snickered as she leaned back against the counter and folded her arms.

"Nothing," The small blonde lied. "It's nothing, just got a little bit of stage fright was all."

"Stage fright? And here we thought you weren't afraid of anything. You're always so…stone face and kind of cold." The sassy woman admitted to her. Afterwards, she gently hit Seras' arm. "Hey, there's nothing to be scared of. I don't know where all of that came from last night, but you absolutely killed it. You are a great dancer. Trust me; all eyes will be on you." This caused the small blonde to laugh under her breath.

"Stage fright usually comes from getting too much attention. What you're saying isn't making me feel any better." Seras responded. She then stood up straighter with a deep breath. "But I'm okay now. I'm okay," Suddenly, a frown formed on the sassy woman's face and she lowered her head.

"You should probably get out there soon to distract them. We don't want the King or the guard dog getting too bored and wander off only to find Margret stealing the key." She murmured.

"Margret," Seras repeated in a whisper. "Hmn, so that's her name."

"I guess we never really were properly introduced." The sassy woman muttered before she held out a hand to her new friend. "I'm Miranda," The small blonde smiled and took the girl's hand to shake it.

"Seras," She murmured.

"Seras, huh?" Miranda responded. "You never really talked to anybody so no one knew your name. We used to call you wolf girl."

"Wolf girl?" Seras snickered.

"Because you were a lone wolf," The sassy woman explained. "Not very clever, I know, but that's all we had. All the information we had on you is that you liked to be alone. Why is that?" The girls were interrupted when the kitchen door swung open and someone entered. Seras and Miranda both turned their heads to find the King's guard dog, Sebastian, standing before them with a devilish smirk on his lips and some folded clothing in his hands. He bowed his head politely to the two, even though that was inappropriate since they were slaves, and he held out the clothes towards the small blonde.

"Lord Alucard wishes to gift you with this since you will be gifting us with a performance." The demon spoke elegantly. "Oh," He started back up and tilted his head back to pierce her with a look. Almost instantly, Seras shifted her gaze to look at his feet instead of his eyes. "And he doesn't wish to be disappointed, neither do I," He said warningly, sending a shiver down both girls' spines. Alucard's guard dog spent several seconds with his eyes locked on the small blonde while he was holding out the clothes to her. But she refused to look at him or take the clothes. When Miranda saw the annoyance grow in the demon's eyes, she quickly stepped forward and took the clothes from him.

"Thank you!" Miranda exclaimed, earning the demon's gaze. He gave her a perplexed look before giving Seras a side glance. Afterwards, he stood up straight and nodded his head.

"Just make sure she wears it or the King will be greatly offended." Sebastian warned her in a calming voice and gave a gentle smile. But his eyes held nothing but mockery. He then glanced back at Seras. "And when the King is offended, things end badly. I would keep that in mind if I were you." With that said, the King's guard dog left the kitchen. Once they were alone, Miranda turned sharply on her heel to face the small blonde.

"Girl, you've got some balls!" She exclaimed in disbelief. "Ignoring him like that could have gotten you kill-" She cut off there after remembering that what Seras was doing for all of them was a suicide mission. Embarrassed and uncomfortable, she bit her lower lip and looked away from the small blonde. "Sorry," She murmured under her breath.

"Forget it," Seras muttered with a shake of her head. She then gestured towards the clothing in Miranda's hands. "What is it that they want me to wear?" The brunette shrugged her shoulders before unfolding the items of clothing and held it up. The small blonde's eyes widened and her mouth fell open. "You've got to be kidding me!" She exclaimed as she grabbed the deep red, long mesh skirt that was slit on the sides and was quite revealing. With it was a matching deep red, mesh bra that would most likely show her nipples. "Who in the hell do they think they are?!"

"I hate them as much as you do, but…you have to admit, it is pretty and the material is lovely. It's so soft and probably very fitting." Miranda whispered while she caressed the light material between her fingers.

"I don't know," Seras grumbled with a shrug. "I think I would like it better if the bra and skirt weren't see-through." Shifting the items of clothing around in her arms, Miranda happily pulled out a pair of deep red, silk panties.

"At least they were decent enough to give you panties." The brunette announced with a soft chuckle.

"Yes, well, aren't they fucking wonderful." The small blonde replied sarcastically with a click of her tongue. "I'm just sooo happy that they allowed me to wear underwear." She said this and then rolled her eyes. Miranda frowned at her.

"I thought I was supposed to be the sassy one." She muttered under her breath. "Look, this is a good thing. You want to capture people's attention so they're not tempted to leave the throne room. You want all eyes on you the entire time. Now, you're good looking, don't get me wrong, but this is going to help you tremendously." The brunette said as she gently shook the items of clothing. "Nobody will be able to take their eyes off of you, especially from the way you dance!" Seras sighed through her nose and lightly fingered the revealing cloth.

"Yeah, I guess so." The small blonde grumbled, clearly displeased that she was going to die dressed as a harlot.

"I'll help you get ready." Miranda whispered. And say our final goodbyes. She thought to herself while hot tears pricked at her eyes.

Minutes later, Seras stood trembling in the doorway of the throne room wearing the lingerie that the king had gifted her. Miranda was right, it fit like a glove and the material was somewhat pleasant against her skin. The only issue was that she felt completely naked! Her long legs were visible to all eyes, her stomach and arms were bare, and her bra was see-through so everyone could see her nipples. And it didn't help any that Miranda decided to spike up her hair a little more and add makeup. The small blonde felt like such a slut! She felt exposed! The vampires that had tried raping her before will try even harder now and she didn't know if she would be able to fend them off. Suddenly it became very hard to breathe. Her chest tightened and her throat closed up. Oh, god! She forgot how to breathe! Instinctively, Seras wrapped her arms around her bare stomach as it churned inside of her. She might just throw up! What was going to happen tonight?

"Alright," Miranda started as she came out of the throne room to stand beside the sick girl. "The orchestra has your song and they're getting ready. Are you ready?" But when the brunette glanced over at the small blonde she instantly knew that she wasn't. "Jesus, you're as pale as a ghost." Seras didn't bother looking at her as she continued to stare into the room horrified. "Seras," She started back up. "You don't…have…to do this. We can find another way…"

"There is no other way." Seras murmured. "People have been trying to escape here for years; nothing has worked. This is the perfect time. Everyone will be here in this room which gives you guys the chance to escape. Now go." Before Miranda could even try speaking with her again or talk her out of it, the small blonde stepped into the room. Suddenly all that fear she had felt drained away as she went deeper and deeper into the room and got lost among the vampires. She was completely numb and far more welcoming towards her fate. She may die tonight, hell she may even get raped, but she won't let them intimidate her. She refused to be scared of these monsters any longer! With confidence shining brightly in her seemingly dark, blue eyes, she lifted her head to glance over at the king. The chatter in the room died down and all was silent when the human slave reached the large opening in the room and came to a stop.

Catching sight of her from the corner of his eye, Sebastian stood up straighter and fully turned his head. A grin graced the king's lips as he stared upon her with amusement and some type of hunger in his eyes. He casually leaned back on his throne while he admired the small blonde in the red lingerie. The little female stood there so boldly with her back straight, her head held high, and her eyes piercing. It was almost like she was challenging them. They gave her something shameful and inappropriate to wear, both believing that she wouldn't actually wear it and then they can spend the remainder of the night punishing her. But here she was, wearing it and standing before them with a look in her eyes that was silently saying to them 'I made my move, now it's your turn'. The grins on their faces widened. And a move they will make. There was no way in hell they were going to stop teasing or playing with this little human, especially after the way she stood before them now, daring them.

A sharp jolt erupted in Seras' stomach and she was forced to let her gaze fall towards the ground. Why did she get that feeling when looking at them? Was that the feeling of hatred? Confused by those strange feelings, the small blonde clenched her fists before glancing over at the orchestra. The conductor merely nodded his head, faced forward, and raised his baton up for the ready. Instantly, the violins and cellos played softly and the room was filled with a gentle flow of music. Seras closed her eyes and took a deep breath in before she allowed the music to flow through her. As she raised an arm the bassoon started to play softly along with the string instruments. Before she even really knew it, she was dancing along with the music. Each movement was slow, but seductive as if she was telling a lover to come hither. The basset horns joined in to the mix.

Seras kept moving with the flow of the music and refused to open her eyes so she wouldn't meet anyone's gaze. She pretended that she was alone in the bathroom and just listened to the pretty notes that spoke to her in their own way. And she expressed those silent words in her movements. The mesh skirt caressed along her legs and her muscles tightened in her stomach as she bent backwards to place her hands on the floor. She then gently kicked one of her legs up and over her body. Her other leg easily followed and she landed in an upright position. The trombones then boomed and her dancing got a tad bit faster. Her feet swept across the floor while her hands grasped her steel chain to stroke her fingers over it sensually. As the mallets hit the bass drums, Seras swung her chain so it wrapped down and around her arm.

The small blonde jolted in surprise when a choir started singing. Their voices echoed in the throne room and filled the foyer and halls. As she spun elegantly, she cracked open her eyes to take a peek at the orchestra to find a row of men and women standing behind the instruments. They were all dressed nicely and read from a booklet that contained the lyrics of the score, Requiem. And, as instructed, the performers skipped right to the hymn Dies irae.

"Dies irae, dies illa solvet saeclum in favilla, teste David cum Sybilla." The choir sung in Latin and continued on in the background as the little human danced faster to the music. Her chain slipped from her arm and rattled noisily as she moved about the center of the room. Her hair brushed along her cheeks, her heart raced in her chest, and her breath was caught in her throat. She sprung upwards into the air only to come back down and land painfully on her tip toes, but she didn't so much as wince and continued to dance. Seras raised one leg to rest the top of her foot near the back of her other thigh. And then she spun on top of her toes. Unfortunately, when she made a full spin for the split second she stopped her eyes met with Alucard's. But their gaze was instantly broken when she made to do another turn which ended with their gazes meeting a second time. The third time she spun, she this time closed her eyes as to not meet his piercing red eyes. She made two more quick spins before she was interrupted.

Seras nearly fell when someone grabbed her tightly by the arms. She gasped and her eyes flew open to find Alucard standing before her with a wide toothy grin on his face. Her heart just about stilled in her chest and her face paled. The music continued to play, but she was stopped mid-dance. The little human trembled and cowered in his grasp. Her wavering blue eyes couldn't pull themselves away from his blood red orbs or the sharp incisors that protruded from his mouth. His skin was ice cold against hers and sent goosebumps up and down her arms. And yet, there was a feeling inside of her that left her…mesmerized. The male before her was gorgeous. His skin was flawless, his hair looked ever so soft and was darker than the night, and his eyes…made her stomach tighten pleasantly. And with him so close, the little human was able to catch his scent and found that she absolutely loved it. If possible, she was actually getting drunk off of his scent. It was just so…soothing and gave her the need to bury her face in his chest or neck. The king slowly released her from his tight grasp, but only to take hold of her chain and wrap it securely around his hand several times. He then roughly pulled her forward so she bounced off of his chest hard. Alucard wrapped an arm around the little human's lower back and he pulled her close.

"Why ever did you stop dancing, Nymph? Nobody told you to stop." The vampire spoke to her. His grin then widened further and he cackled loudly. "Do as you're told now." Afterwards, he started leading them in a fast-paced dance of madness and repeatedly pulled on her chain. Her feet brushed along the concrete flooring and she kept tripping because he kept taking such large steps. With each stumble, he would pull hard on her chain and lift it up over her head so the collar choked her and she was forced to stand up right again. Another deep cackle sounded through the room. "Good," He purred. He spun them around and around as the music got faster.

But then the madness stopped for a split second when someone took Seras' hand and pulled her away from the mad king. The little human was forced to spin around only to ram into Sebastian hard. Just as she landed in his arms, Alucard was heaving hard on her chain so she was forced to bend backwards over the demon's arm. The small blonde automatically grabbed at her chain in hope for some control, but she already knew that was pointless. The vampire abruptly pulled on her chain again as a warning for her to let go and she obeyed. Sebastian lowered his head with a wide smirk on his face. He placed a warm hand on her flat stomach and traced his fingers up her body, between her breasts, and down her arched throat before he was stopped by her collar.

"Nymph she is." The demon purred. His hand then slid back down her body, but only to force his hand under her bra and grope her breast. Seras cried out softly in shock and she shot out one of her hands to stop him, but Alucard quickly grabbed her by the wrist and forced her hand away. Not thinking twice, the small blonde raised her other hand, but again, the vampire was faster. He easily wrapped the chain around her other arm and pulled it back sharply so she was completely restrained and helpless.

"Stop!" She exclaimed. The demon had such a malevolent look on his face. His smirk showed off his incisors and his eyes were a deep, dark red that pierced her. His black talons scraped along her flesh and he cruelly squeezed her breast. Seras closed her eyes tightly and she winced in pain. "Stop," She begged again through grunts. The harder he squeezed the more her stomach tightened. Her sex felt incredibly weird. A strange sensation ran through it, almost like a tingling. She trembled in Alucard's grasp and her heart was going a mile a minute. So, she acted on this fear and confusion. The little human raised one of her legs and she kicked the demon hard in the stomach. Taken by surprise, Sebastian stumbled back and his hand left her breast.

Unfortunately, since he was the one holding her up, as soon as he backed off Seras started to fall but was caught painfully by her collar and Alucard's tight grasp. Her arm felt like it was about to break from the angle she fell in and her collar started to choke her. The vampire merely threw back his head and laughed while the little human struggled to stand up and stop the collar from choking her. She was having an incredibly hard time doing so though and no one was going to help her.

"What a simpleminded, little nymph." Alucard breathed as he pulled on her chain to lift her back on her feet. "So fierce," He tugged on her chain again so her back ended up crushed to his front. He then placed a hand on her waist and caressed over her smooth, soft skin. "So curvy," Sebastian stepped forward to roughly take the girl by her chin.

"You're just a little fox, aren't you?" The demon whispered lowly while he leaned his face in even closer towards hers.

"I bet you've been fucked twelve different ways by now." The vampire chuckled in her ear. "Discover any new positions that you'd care to share with us?" Alucard then unexpectedly cupped her heat and dug his fingers into her panties to feel her thoroughly. Seras' face burned with a deep blush and she twisted in his arms. "Just how many cocks stretched out that fanciful, little pussy of yours? How many cocks have you tasted or taken up the ass? Have you ever been fucked brutally hard? Do you like it hard? Would you like us to wreck you?" Alucard then snickered. "Let me rephrase that. We're going to wreck you, little nymph, like no man ever has before." His fingers dug deeper into her panties and he rubbed in a circular motion. Every muscle in Seras' body locked up and she completely stiffened in his arms. "But the wreckage will have to wait until later. As of right now there's a party going on, and since I tend to grow bored during these events, I look to you to entertain me." The demon's fingers slipped from her chin and he stepped away. The girl was able to somewhat relax when Alucard's hand finally pulled away from her most sacred area. She released a small breath of air and her muscles unlocked. "Since you're such a 'fantastic' dancer," The vampire remarked snidely as he walked back towards his throne. He rudely pulled on her chain and she unwillingly followed. She stared up at him with furrowed brows and a look of discomfort glistened in her eyes. When they finally reached his throne, the grinning king turned and sat back comfortably. "I want you to give me a lap dance." He demanded of her softly before he again pulled on her chain. Losing her balance, Seras fell onto his lap.

"What?!" She exclaimed and went to push off of his chest. Before his prey could escape, Alucard grasped the little human tightly by her wrist and he tugged her back to him. The grin fell from his now stern looking face. His dark red orbs burned and he flashed a warning look.

"Dance upon my lap, Nymph, or you shall be punished." He growled with a hint of fang and his fingers tightened around her wrist. "You have to get it hard before I can wreck you." He reminded with a light snicker. The short-term grin vanished again then. "Get me hard," This caused Sebastian to chuckle. Seras shifted her head to glance over at the demon that stood at the king's side like the good dog he was.

"Getting him hard is the easiest thing in the world." Michaelis told her with a gentle wave of his hand. "He's probably already at half-mast after playing with you."

"With that said," Alucard continued. "Finish the job." Seras glanced between the two looking completely stunned and absolutely speechless.

"No!" She blurted a couple of seconds later. Her disgust filled eyes flickered back to the vampire's face to openly criticize him. Alucard grasped her arm tightly and pulled her closer with a soft growl to intimidate the little human.

"You will or would you prefer I strip you in front of everyone here and fuck you?" He growled and his fingers tightened around her arm. Seras winced, but clear fear glistened in those pretty blue orbs of hers. A grin flashed across his face and he chuckled. "That's what I thought," He whispered and let go of her arm to place his hand on her ass. The small blonde's breathing increased as she nervously trailed her eyes down his body to stare openly at the growing bulge in his pants. Supposedly, he wasn't fully erect yet and that thought scared her. He must be pretty big and she was starting to fear what he had planned for her before he kills her. Using his free hand, Alucard lifted her chin so she had to look at him. "I like it nice and slow. Move those hips and ass; tempt me with them, Nymph."

Seras stared deeply into his red eyes. They were so stern, so cold, and yet, they warmed her like a fire. She could only assume that what she was currently feeling was a burning hatred for him, but that didn't really make sense to her. It wasn't hate…it was, what was it? Her stomach was tight and her heart felt like it was skipping beats. Why did she feel like that when looking into his hellish red eyes? It just had to be hate or anger. Licking over her lips and without breaking her gaze from his, Seras bravely placed her hands on his shoulders. She propped up a little on her knees before she started to gently roll her hips. His eyes followed hers while his grin widened. His fingers kneaded her ass, teasing her while encouraging her to keep moving that little body of hers. The small blonde gasped and she jumped slightly on his lap, giving him a good laugh. She rotated her hips before thrusting them forward to gently grind against that bulge. Alucard gave a breathy moan and he watched her all the more closely. His hand caressed along her ass, loving the feel of it as it bounced up and down with each thrust she gave.

His eyes trailed down her body slowly, undressing her over and over again in his head. His eyes stopped to stare at her breasts. The mesh bra allowed him to have visual access to her nipples. Her big, gorgeous breasts were doing their own little dance in that bra of hers. But he would prefer to see them bare and jiggling. Michaelis must have had similar thoughts because he aggressively grabbed her by the back of her neck to keep her from stopping him as he undid her bra. Seras stopped all movements and she became as stiff as a board with eyes so wide she looked like a deer in headlights. She did nothing to stop him as the demon pulled off her bra and dropped it to the floor, leaving her bare to their eyes. Even though she was highly embarrassed being partially nude in front of them, she was slightly relieved to know that they were the only ones paying attention. The rest of the party had returned to talking, drinking, and dancing, ignoring what their king and his new pet were up to.

Her eyes flickered back to Alucard's face, but he was gazing at her breasts with a look of approval on his face. Sebastian's fingers slipped from the back of her neck and he returned to his original position beside them. Slowly, the girl relaxed a little and allowed her muscles to unlock. Her fingers dug into Alucard's shoulders and she returned to gently rotating and rolling her hips on top of his lap. With one hand grabbing her ass, the vampire used his other hand to cup her breast and brush his thumb over her nipple. Seras gasped out with a faint blush on her cheeks, but she did her best to ignore him and the feelings that were stirring inside her lower stomach. She bit her bottom lip and kept her eyes focused on his throat while she gave him his lap dance.

The nymph's breast was so warm in his hand and so very soft. He enjoyed the feel of her flesh against his. He grazed her nipple with his thumb several times and watched as it slowly erected. His eyes flickered to her face curiously to see something rousing there in her eyes. Could that be lust? The male snickered under his breath before his eyes trailed back down her body. This time they went further down to her flat stomach and beautiful thighs. Her legs were spread wide open so she could straddle him, but her groin never came in contact with his. Each movement she just barely touched his groin and when she did accidentally graze up against him, she would flinch back with a very soft whimper. Alucard chuckled as he watched her move on top of him. She was certainly a stunning nymph and she did manage to get him rock hard, but her lap dance could use some work. Alucard released her breast to grab her hips with both hands. He pinned her to his lap, making sure their groins had full contact, and locked eyes with her. Seras was in complete panic mode. Her nails were biting into his shoulders and she was shaking in his grasp. She opened her mouth to say something, but he interrupted.

"Nobody told you to stop, Nymph." Alucard purred with a twisted grin on his face. "Ride me," One of his hands came up to comb his fingers through her short hair. "I'm sure you have a lot of experience and I'm sure you get ridden a lot yourself. How often do men call you to their chambers late in the night? How many tricks do they make you perform? I can't wait to see all of your tricks, Nymph. It's going to be a fun night. Now, show me what you know and get me off, succubus." Seras' face was such a dark shade of red. She didn't like that he kept assuming that she was a whore and that she's been with a ton of guys. She barely knew what she was doing now and this should be simple compared to sex, right?! "Move those hips," Alucard demanded when his new pet stayed absolutely still on his lap. He arched a brow at the peculiar look on her face. She looked incredibly embarrassed. Why? Shouldn't she be used to this? What the fuck was wrong with her? Instead of getting mad, he decided to play around and tease her some more. The vampire raised his hips to grind against her. Seras' eyes flew open wide and she made a strange, but cute sound under her breath. "Move those hips," Alucard repeated himself in a low purr as he continued to grind against her.

The small blonde lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly before she started moving her hips, falling into rhythm with him. She bit back a whimper when pleasure tore through her body. She felt so warm and she felt so good. Her stomach was wound tightly, her sex tingled, and her heart pitter pattered fast in her chest. She's never felt this way before. What was he doing to her? She's had males grab at her and rub against her, but she always hated it. But this time it was so different. His touch comforted and seared her at the same time. And each time his cock rubbed up against her she thought she would die; it was like her very soul was jumping out of her body with each thrust and grind. Seras soon found that she was having trouble catching her breath.

What was happening?! She was so confused and she was feeling so many things she had never experienced before and she was ashamed to find that she didn't want it to end. She wanted to always feel like this, she always wanted to feel this good. Finally, the little human lifted her head and opened her eyes to look back at Alucard. He looked absolutely enthralled that she was succumbing to him and his needs. Normally she would be angry or repulsed and fight back, but at the moment she didn't care. She wanted to submit to him. Why was the need to succumb to his every desire so strong within her?! Why was she coming undone in his lap?! Why did she love his touch even though his hands were ice cold and grabbing her tightly?! And why…why did she keep losing herself in his eyes? There was something there in his eyes that kept drawing her to them. She knew she wasn't under hypnosis, but yet, she found his eyes extremely hypnotic.

Seras fisted his shirt with a muffled moan when the feelings got stronger. Instinctively, she started bouncing up and down and grinded her hips faster, needing to get to wherever this pleasure was sending her. Alucard growled softly under his breath. Delight mingled with madness in his red orbs as he watched her every move. He eagerly cupped her ass in his hands and started pulling her forward to meet with his thrusting cock. So far this little nymph was different from the other females he's fucked in the past. She responded to him on a completely different level. When staring into her eyes, he felt a connection of some sort, like he knew her. His hands did seem to know their way around her body almost as if she's been his lover for centuries and he knew every inch of her body. What pleased him further was that she wasn't afraid to look him directly in the eye, touch and grab at him, or ride him. Hell, she didn't even flinch away from his cold skin.

Alucard believed this to be because she was used to fucking vampires and was no longer intimidated by them, but he was starting to find that hard to believe. The look in her eyes as she experienced the pleasure told him that she's never felt this sort of pleasure before. Had she been pleasured improperly this entire time or…was this her first experience? She looked so shy and innocent like any other virgin he's taken, but it didn't make sense to him. She was a slave, how had she kept that purity from the sexually depraved vampires under that roof for so long? She couldn't be a virgin! It just wasn't possible! The nymph was just having her first good experience out of dozens of bad experiences. That's the only thing that made sense to Alucard anyway. Seras became so confused and beyond frightened when something phenomenal happened to her body. All that pleasure that had been building up finally let go, causing her body to shake and her sex to spasm.

What was happening to her body?! What did he do to her?! Was this…an orgasm?! Seras wondered as she stared deeply into the face of the grinning lunatic. Alucard roughly pulled her closer and pinned her tremoring groin to his. He growled through gritted teeth as he came in his pants. Seras became still on his lap. Her chest heaved as she breathed heavily and her heart was pounding in her ears. But the second her body calmed and she realized what happened, she was instantly mortified. The little human buried her red face in her hands and lowered her head as if she was hiding from Alucard and the rest of the room. She scolded herself for being so damn stupid. She orgasmed! How could she have orgasmed?! Of course it felt good, but he was her enemy! Normally people don't give their enemies a lap dance and then orgasm right on their lap! Why had she acted so stupidly?! Why in that small moment did she crave to feel his touch and experience the pleasure?! Why did she give in?! Alucard purred as he gently curled his fingers around her thin wrists and forced her hands away from her face.

"You came," The vampire stated with a chuckle. A gentle grin settled on his lips while he stared at her with those demonic, gorgeous eyes. "But I don't recall permitting you to orgasm, Nymph." His eyes trailed down her body, stopping at her exposed breasts where his grin widened. He let go of one of her wrists to caress his hand down her ribs. The little human shuddered from his touch, but she didn't pull away or show any signs of anger or disgust. Perhaps she was learning who she belonged to. "I guess I'll just have to punish you." Seras' face paled immediately after hearing those words. "Beg me not to punish you." His grin was so wide now that it showed off his razor teeth. "Say, 'Master, please don't punish me'. Go on,"

"You're making her call you master now?" Sebastian snickered into his hand.

"Hearing her call me lord or majesty will get boring fast, especially since I hear it at least a hundred times a day from those other idiots." Alucard grumbled with an annoyed look in his eyes. He wrapped the nymph's chain around his hand several times to prevent her from escaping even though she was staying put on his lap like a good pet. "I don't wish to grow bored of my new toy so soon. When I get bored I tend to break my toys beyond repair just to redeem my amusement." He pulled on her chain to bring her face closer to his. Seras gasped as one of her hands flung up to grasp her collar while the other shot out to press against Alucard's chest to help keep her propped up. "You don't want me growing bored of you now, do you, Nymph? Or do you feel the same as Michaelis?" The little human's eyes widened and she looked between the vampire and demon. She didn't know if all of what they were saying was true, but it sounded believable. After being speechless for several long seconds, Seras looked Alucard in the eye and gulped nervously before giving her answer.

"I don't agree with either of you." Seras responded. Alucard tugged on her chain again.

"That wasn't an option!" He snarled at her, but she wasn't scared. Instead, she grasped her collar even tighter and gave him a dark look.

"I don't care if I'm a slave, a servant, a toy, or a pet, I don't have a master and I certainly don't see you as my king! And I'm not going to beg like some dog so you don't punish me! If you want to punish me, then do it! Don't just sit there and talk about doing it and act like you're something high and mighty!" Seras yelled at him. Even though he was straight in the face, from the look in his eyes the small blonde knew that he wasn't only shocked by her response, but impressed. Finally, Alucard moved. He wrapped her chain tighter in his hand and gingerly pulled so their faces were an inch a part. A wide grin returned to his pale face and arousal glistened in his eyes.

"You're a kinky little bitch, aren't you? Do you like being punished, my pet?" The vampire asked in a purr as his other hand slipped around to grope her ass.

"You love to talk, don't you?" Seras asked sharply and her look never softened. But the joke was on her, Alucard was only getting more aroused by her feistiness. She was only proving more and more to him that he wasn't going to grow bored of her. "You're either stalling from punishing me or you just like the sound of your own voice."

"I can't say that she's wrong. I too believe that you like hearing the own sound of your voice, Alucard." Sebastian chuckled.

"Fine, you want to be punished so badly? Then I'll punish you." Alucard purred. With no intentions of actually hurting her, the vampire leaned down to part his lips around the top of her right breast. Seras gasped when the male sucked down on her warm flesh, licked, and nipped at her. What was he doing?! Suddenly all that confidence and anger drained from her eyes and the redness returned to her face while she watched the vampire closely. His long tongue lashed over her nipple and dragged over the top of her breast. She saw those dangerous teeth glinting in the light as he bared them, threatening her that he would bury every tooth into her sensitive breast and consume her blood. He teased her as he gently placed his sharp incisors along her breast and rigged her milky flesh. Her skin was so warm, so delicious; it made him anxious to taste her blood. And when he did, his thoughts would finally be put to rest knowing if she's a whore or a sweet virgin. Just when he was about to sink his fangs into her delicious breast, he was interrupted. A man from his court approached him looking deadly serious and absolutely furious.

"My Lord," He made his presence known. Alucard's eyes flickered to the man before he released the girl's breast from his deadly jaws and sat up straight. Seras automatically covered her breasts with her arms to hide herself and she lowered her head in shame.

"What is it, Morales?" Alucard sighed in frustration before he roughly grabbed the girl by her arms and forced them apart so her breasts were exposed again. Seras whimpered under her breath and her face reddened in humiliation. Morales cleared his throat as he looked between his king and the partially naked woman.

"The slaves, the humans, they've escaped, Sir. Their collars were found in the kitchen, along with the keys, and they're nowhere to be found." Morales responded. Alucard's red orbs darkened and he gritted his teeth.

"What?!" He snarled and he pushed Seras off of his lap so he could stand. The little human landed on her back hard, but she quickly recouped. She sat up and immediately grabbed for her bra to cover her breasts. The bra may be see through, but at least it gave her some dignity. "Show me," The vampire king demanded.

"Yes, my Lord." Morales responded with a low bow. As Alucard followed after the other vampire, Sebastian cruelly yanked on Seras' chain so she had to stand. The demon smirked at her before he started pulling her along and followed after Alucard to the kitchen. When they reached their destination, they found three more men of Alucard's court standing around a pile of collars and chains. The room was silent for a long moment before the mad king started cackling. The men in the room looked at him, but none of them were surprised that he was laughing. Of course he and Michaelis both knew that their little pet had been up to something, but to think that it was this was quite amusing. He wasn't mad in the slightest that he lost slaves.

"They couldn't have gone far." Sebastian noted out loud. He released Seras' chain and walked over to pick up the keys to the slaves' collars. "And there's nowhere for them to hide. They'll be wandering through the woods for hours, days. They don't have food or water, they won't last."

"Isn't it suspicious at all that this little bitch," Lord Evans started as he pointed at Seras. "Was dancing right when the others were escaping? She had a hand in this." He said this as he approached the little human with a dark look in his eyes. "She's the reason we've lost dozens of slaves." The man then slapped her hard across the face. Seras didn't make a sound when his hand met with her cheek, slapping her so hard that her head snapped to the side. He busted her lip open earlier that day and now it was bleeding again. Afterwards, Lord Evans grabbed her tightly by her chain and roughly pulled her towards him. "Where have they gone?!"

"Do you honestly believe that she's that stupid or would just give in so easily?" Sebastian snickered as he watched the raving man glower at the little human.

"She sacrificed herself for them. They most likely didn't tell her where they'll go in case we tortured her, and even then, I have a feeling she wouldn't talk. Our pet appears to be far too stubborn." Alucard added with a proud look in his eyes while he grinned at Seras. The girl stared up at Lord Evans, giving him a hard look almost like she was daring him. For giving him such a look, he backhanded her again before releasing her. Quietly, the little human gathered her chains so no one else would be tempted to grab and pull on them. "Nymph," Alucard called for her like a dog with a crook of his finger. Seras didn't bother disobeying. She silently retreated to her new master's side where she stood with her head lowered. She was just glad to be away from that damn vampire and his ringed fingers. The No Life King grinned at his pet as he rested a hand on the top of her head and lightly ruffled her hair. The demon walked up behind her to stand to her right. He gingerly wrapped his fingers around her chin and tilted her head up a little.

"You've made a mess of our new pet." Sebastian sighed while he watched the blood leak from her lip to her chin. Evans scoffed as he glowered at the blonde bitch. He rubbed over his ringed fingers as if he was the one who ended up far more hurt than Seras.

"She's a mess all the time." The vampire grumbled, but he knew that was partially because of him. He was constantly smacking her around, covering her face with bruises and dried blood, and knocking her to the dirty floor where she got all scuffed up. "Who cares about her? We have a more serious matter to be dealing with." He then turned back to look at the collars on the floor. Sebastian leaned down and licked up the blood from her busted lip. The second he tasted her, his red eyes simmered brightly and he gasped softly. The corner of his lips then curled into a sinister grin and he brushed his lips over her cheek and up to her ear.

"You're a virgin," He whispered to her in a low voice. Seras grasped her chains tighter but she remained nonchalant. "Don't worry, this little secret will be just between us." Even though the girl had such a tight grasp of her chain the demon was able to get ahold of it. He pulled on it sharply, forcing the girl to stumble in front of him. He tugged again on her chain until her ass was pressed into his groin. He then wrapped his arm around her stomach quite possessively, keeping her pressed to him. He placed his chin on her shoulder with a crooked grin while his free hand swept down her body to cup her warm heat through her panties. Seras stiffened in his hold. She turned her head away from his and started breathing heavily as she panicked. "However did you stay a virgin for so long?" The demon whispered in her ear while his fingers dug into her panties. He could feel the wet warmth through the material. "Alucard was right. You are a kinky little bitch, aren't you?" His demonic eyes flickered about her face even though she was doing all she could do avoid his gaze. "You're not even fighting me." He continued to whisper to her. "You want me to touch you. You like it." She shifted her head to look at him in disbelief.

"No," She whispered, but was instantly cut off.

"That's a lie," Sebastian muttered while he stared deeply into her eyes. He could sense that she was lying. She may be confused and annoyed, but a part of her most definitely wanted him to touch her. He could see that in her eyes. But why did she crave his touch when she was actually supposed to hate his guts? Why did she fall part on Alucard's lap? She fought with them verbally, but not physically. Like now, she was perfectly still in his arms, almost comfortable. But yet she was saying that she didn't want him or his touch. But again, her eyes were saying something else entirely. They were inviting him to touch her, almost pleading him. She was the strangest woman he had ever met. Sebastian found that he was fascinated by her; intrigued really. She really wasn't going to bore him or Alucard, was she? He could tell that she was going to be just full of surprises. "If it will make you feel better, you can struggle and pretend that you hate it and that I'm a villain." He suggested half-jokingly.

"What are you two whispering?" Alucard asked with an arched brow and a crooked grin. The demon glanced at him before snickering in amusement.

"Nothing," He responded. "Just trying to get Nymph to spill her secrets. Maybe there is one in particular that she would like to share with you." Immediately afterwards Sebastian's eyes flickered to the other men in the room. His smirk faltered. "Later, when there are fewer ears around." This intrigued the No Life King. A grin cracked his face as he looked down at his new pet. What sort of secrets did she have to share? What did Michaelis know that he didn't? Without looking at the members of his court, Alucard waved his hand in dismissal.

"Return to the festivities," He ordered them.

"But, my Lord, what about the slaves?" One of them asked timidly while he gestured towards the pile of collars.

"What about them? They're gone and there's no real point in retrieving them." Their king answered, but his eyes were still glued to that damn human. He reached out a hand to play with strands of her hair. "Now leave. I would like to train my new pet and punish her accordingly for her acts in private. Perhaps I'll even break her in a little if she's good." He cackled when the girl turned as white as a sheet, but continued to give him a defiant look which made him want her all the more. None of the men in his court sounded happy. They all grumbled and complained to each other as they left the room to leave their king to his new pet. Alucard took a few steps closer to the small blonde until he was standing right in front of her. Her eyes never left his. She tilted her head back and stared up at him with that killer look in her eyes.

"Why do I get the sense that you're daring me to touch you?" The monster asked with a deep cackle. "What will you do if I touched you?" To further aggravate and play with her, he raised his hand to place it on top of her head. The girl didn't move a muscle, which kind of disappointed both men. But her look did darken. Trying hard to get a rise out of her, Alucard's hand stroked over her hair. His fingertips tickled her skin as they caressed down her neck to her shoulder. They then went down her arm to smooth out over her waist. But she continued to just stand there and glare at him.

"There you go lying again." She spoke finally. The vampire paused and his brows rose in astonishment that she was actually speaking to him without permission. Not only that, but she was boldly accusing her master of lying right to his face. More than fascinated by her, Alucard cackled as he slid his hand from her waist to grab her chin gingerly.

"Girl, you have more balls than most men I have met throughout my life." He purred. To amuse her, he played along. "What was I lying about?" He questioned snidely.

"You keep saying that you're going to punish me and you still haven't." Seras said outright. "Unless, hearing you talk is the punishment in which case bravo, Sir, you torture all when you speak."

"You're very keen on being punished, aren't you?" Alucard noted while his red eyes studied hers. "Do you like punishing yourself?" He asked her with a crooked grin. "I like to punish those who have been…naughty." He breathed sexually as his hand trailed back down her body, going over every curve. "But, admittedly, I like it more when my victims enjoy the punishment which is quite rare."

"I didn't say that I would enjoy shit." The girl said calmly even though they could feel how aggressive those words really were. "I just want you to stop talking to me and move on to that damn punishment so I can move on with my damn life." The males could only stand there and stare at her. For once, they were shocked. She was such a peculiar woman and an interesting slave. No wondered why she got beat a lot, her mouth and looks were constantly getting her into trouble. But above all, they found her amusing. Did she honestly believe that after her punishment, after this night was over, they'll just be finished with her? What didn't she understand? She was their new pet; they were keeping her.

"Very well," Alucard purred with a heated look. "We'll move on to the damn punishment." The male then grasped her arm tightly and transported them to another area in the manor. She came to find herself in the King's bedroom. It was quite large, but that didn't surprise her. The room would have been dark if not for the moonlight shining in through the paneled windows. Heavy dark maroon curtains hung from the windows, but were bound back so the estate could be seen. Not far from where they appeared was a king sized bed. There were a couple of neat pillows at the head of the bed and a dark maroon spread sheet, but that was it. No sheet or even a comforter. Then again, he was a vampire and most likely didn't even use the bed for sleeping, but just for fucking. And even if he did snooze away in that giant bed of his, there was no need for a blanket because he was immune to the cold. Across the room from the bed was the master bathroom, but from where she stood she couldn't get a good look at it. Beside that room was another for his entire attire. And then there was that large, black coffin, the one he used to rest in during the day. Seras stared at the long ass box that was meant for the dead and could easily fit three people.

Her gaze was pulled from the sleek black coffin when tendrils started sprouting from Alucard's shadows. The girl jumped as her eyes flickered to the appendages that writhed above her head. She gaped at them in disbelief, never having seen anything like it before. One of his tendrils shot downwards to wrap tightly around her chain. It then pulled sharply upwards. Her collar strained around her throat as she was pulled into the air. The tips of her toes struggled to get her leverage and she swung and rotated in midair, slowly being choked by her collar. She wrapped her fingers desperately around her collar; doing everything she can to loosen it around her throat. She was still able to get air, but for how much longer? Eventually she'll pass out from over exerting herself and the decrease of oxygen to her brain. Alucard purred as he watched the feisty woman struggle. He walked around her while brushing his fingertips over her stomach and lower back. When he fully circled her and was standing before her once more, he cruelly spun her as she dangled there helplessly. Her eyes were watering and her fingers kept slipping on the metal, making her lose her grip so the collar would end up choking her more.

After a long minute of watching her writhe about, choking and whimpering, trying to get free, his tendril lowered her. But only a little so she can stand painfully on the tips of her toes. She sucked in the air, or at least as much of it as she could since the collar was still pushing into her windpipe. Her legs were stretched as far they would go and so were her toes. Almost immediately she got a cramp in her foot. She could feel the muscles contracting to try and relax themselves, but she knew that if she didn't stretch those muscles her collar would choke her all over again.
