"You are an idiot. If you had half a brain and weren't completely self-absorbed, you would see that it isn't all about you and I look at her like that because she owns me. I am her property. As her slave I must display a certain level of...concern for her well-being and her safety. I care because that's my job. And I do what I must to do it."
Seras stops abruptly as she's about to turn the door knob and breaths inward sharply, surprised, mortified, ashamed. She punches and claws herself inside her mind, disgusted with herself for not thinking it through. For not realizing once again that He. Isn't. Human.
The lid of the coffin rose on its own and a white hand with long nails grasped the edge. Soon Alucard sits up and turns his head slowly. His expression is annoyed as he fixates his eyes upon her, making her feel naked and afraid.
"Unlike you, police girl, I'm not human. I'm not even a human sympathizer. I purposefully discarded all human behavior and emotions eons ago, longer ago than you can even comprehend. Discarding these unnecessary things is the key to immortality. You'd go stark raving mad if you tried to be human and a vampire at the same time.
"I do not feel sad. I do not feel love for anything or anyone. I feel anger. I feel lust."
He stands and circles around her, eyeing her up and down, his gaze claiming every inch of her body. She clutches one arm and hunches over, as if trying to hide, but at the same time her face flushes to a deep scarlet and her heart pounds.
"Lust is a part of love, isn't it, master?" she timidly asks.
He grins and stands directly behind her, pressing his chest to her back. "No, police girl. Both anger and lust are the makings of the devil."
Gasping with every breath now, she turns quickly and looks up into his eyes. His smile becomes larger and more feral.
"Can't you please call me by my name, just once?" she pleads.
His hand brushes her cheek and he lowers his head. Her hands clutch at his white shirt, so terrified and so excited all in the same moment. Their lips barely touching, he says.
"But I'm sorry, police girl. You're still a human. And humans, no matter who or what they are to me, don't interest me. Go back to bed."
