Disclaimer: I own nothing of Hellsing.
A/N: When putting up 'His Creation', I didn't think I'd add another drabble to it so I labelled it Alucard; Seras. It's now been changed cause this second drabble is AxS. This time Seras is with him and again the poor woman doesn't get to say anything, as only Alucard gets to speak. :)
- The Parting -
-oo-
She thought him too annoyingly pleased but revelled in his pleasure as he looked at her.
The young vampire was such a tease and she had no idea. 'When, Seras?' He watched her everyday. His eyes followed her intoxicating moves. She was a different vampire. She was her own vampire. She was... beautiful. 'When, Seras, will you look at me?' He smirked. Was it his fault if his mouth watered during their friendly duels? Was it his fault when she awoke his desires with but a smile from under her hair that concealed one mischievous eye. She played coy, did she know it?
'How many years do I have to wait? You've aged, you've grown. My police girl is almost a queen.'
She moved closer and he craved to place a hand on her. She took his exposed wrist into her gloved hands. That was where she would drink from him. As her face moved close to his wrist, he looked up and saw a crimson tear almost touch her cheek. He caught it with a fingertip and it stained his white glove. She was saddened by losing her connection to him. Such a silly girl. Such an emotional creature of the night. What exactly was it that she was giving up? He would still be there, under the same roof as her. She could still come to him and he would be ready to teach her... whatever she would want to be taught.
Nothing would change, except that after this, no more would they be connected. No more would he hear her unguarded thoughts, feel her uninhibited emotions.
What did it matter?
Human emotions were nothing but a waste of time. But her happiness, her happiness over his return had entered him, and for a moment had brought a smile to his face. A real smile. When had he himself ever felt such a thing as happiness in his long life? Never? Secretly, he had become a thief feeding off his fledgling's emotions, experimenting, feeling, identifying things he had never known. They would all be gone.
She was taking them away.
What did it matter?
Her fangs pierced his flesh. The pain would be heavenly, if not for the slow, unavoidable feeling of loss, a tiny amount of light seeping out of him to once again rest only within her. For just a while she had leant it to him, shared it with him. All too quickly, it was over – their bond broken. Not even the pleasure of her fangs digging into him remained for long. She pulled away, his blood on her lips, her freedom claimed.
He stared at her; why?
Why was he not rejoicing in the release of her?
She licked his blood off her lips, the most sensual thing he had ever seen her do. But she did not know how sensual it was to him. What were they to each other now? She stood before him, the proud being he had always envisioned her to be. But she stood too far away. No longer did she serve him. Now she was his compatriot, a vampire who served whom she chose to serve, and that was a human master.
Almost, Alucard reached out to her, to beckon her to him. But he rarely ever did that. He rarely touched her and he would not touch her now. That would be her choice. She would have to come to him. She would have to ask. He was her creator, her mentor, her compatriot and he would maintain his position as such; he would wait... until...
"You may leave, Seras," he said, dismissing her. She hesitated. He saw the sadness in her eyes but could not feel her pain, not anymore. She smiled her sweet smile and then she was gone.
The darkness of his lair silently crept up and encompassed him, filling the space she had left behind with... nothing.
He sighed a long sigh.
"When? When will you look at me, Police girl?"
-oo-
A/N: Yes, not much. Hope this pleased you at least a little, Dynamosaurus Rex. :)
I didn't know whether to have Alucard call Seras a king and not queen as calling Integra 'Count' and not 'Countess'. I think the wikia states it as 'Count' and includes the Japanese translations. In the OVA, I believe 'No Life King' was written in his blood when he tried to get Seras to drink, so that's why I have my doubts.
Many thanks to the reviewers of the first drabble.
Thanks for reading. :)
