Just a little tide bit that popped into my head before I had to go to work.
It had started when he felt her agitation ripple through their bond to disturb his sleep. No vampire likes to awaken before nightfall and he was no exception to that. The sun still glared through the windows as he made his way up to her office, gaining a disgusted snarl from the vampire. His distaste for being awake at such an hour was quickly forgotten as he phases through the door to find his young master hunched over her desk with her hands buried in her hair. She looked miserable and the dark circles under her eyes was a good clue she felt as bad as she looked at the moment.
"What's troubling my master?"
Integra sighs and raises up to lean back in her chair, "I woke you up didn't I?"
Alucard nods slightly and walks over to sit on the edge of her desk, "You did but that doesn't matter."
She waves a hand toward the stack of folders scattered out across her desk, "I should have known there was an ulterior motive for that party. Those are the profiles and marriage requests of all the young lords. Apparently a woman isn't suited for this line of work and I should marry and let my husband deal with all the nasty details. They also don't think I can control you."
As if he wasn't already angry enough at the thought of some little wretch pawing at his master, hearing they want him to bow down to a boy was just too much, "I will not bow to anyone but you. You are my master, no other!"
Integra had been around the vampire long enough to recognize when he was on the verge of being extremely dangerous to everyone around save for her. She stands and walks around her desk to head for the door, "It doesn't matter, I'm not giving in to their foolishness. You and I have done just fine on our own up to this point and there's no reason to change that."
She could feel his rage taper off, but knew it would take a little more before the vampire fully calmed down. It was no surprise to her when she hears the thud of his boots fall in behind her. There was still a ton of paperwork to deal with but for tonight she was done being the head of the Hellsing organization, she wanted a little time to herself.
Three hours later the pair are piled up on the couch. The large vampire tucked into the corner of the couch with the teenager leaned back against his chest sleeping peacefully. Alucard smiles and carefully brushes her hair back away from her face as he watches her sleep, an episode of I Love Lucy playing in the background. He couldn't really blame those boys for taking an interest in her. Her girlish features had done faded leaving behind a more regal beauty which had shone like a beacon in that ballroom. She had been stunning, but that look of pure fury on her face he was sure is what kept everyone at bay.
His hand stills when she shifts slightly then turns over to press her face into his shirt as a slender arm wraps around his waist. He gives her a moment to settle before lightly running his fingers through her hair, smiling when he hears her pleased sigh.
