-A Vampire Within an Angel-

I watched him get dressed, lying on the floor, after he pulled away from me. His shadow seemed to retract slowly like storm clouds over the open water, sucking the warmth from my very being. I shiver faintly and strand, turning the shower on, when he grips my hips and pulls me against him. His chiseled chest and abs teasing my senses all over again. He kisses down my neck and holds me tight, picking me up and standing me up in the tub. He cups my face and kisses me passionately.

"Get cleaned up,Princess."He whispers, smiling faintly. I nod slightly and kiss him again before he leaves, closing the door behind him. I let the hot water run over my body and wash the blood out of my hair. With each movement I can still feel Alucard touching me, his fingers gliding down my sides and his fangs in my neck. I close my eyes and sigh, leaning back to rinse the shampoo out of my hair, when I feel his tongue slowly teasing my left nipple. I bite my lip and try my best not to move, trying to focus on one thing at a time, but he knew all too well how to torment me. I open my eyes and look down at him.

He stood on his knees, hands gripping my waist as his mouth works to excite my nipple as the hot water slicks his black hair down against his pale skin and runs over his magnificent body. I can't help but moan as his hand gropes my other breast, loving the feel of him. He growls lowly, licking my sensitive skin once more before biting into my side. I gasp and growl, gripping his hair. His crimson eyes flash up to mine as a smirk curls both of our lips. I run my fingers through his hair, tracing his jaw, and moan as his hands slip down between my thighs. He pulls away from my side gently, smirking a bloodied grin, and slowly rubs his thumb over my clit. I let my head fall back, eyes closed and biting my lip, as my hands grips his biceps. He chuckles wickedly and moves slightly, licking me. I moan and grind my hips against his hand and mouth gently until his aggression is too much for him to bare.

He grips my thighs and picks me up, pinning my back against the wall. I put my hands on his chest, nails slowly running over his skin, as he grinds his excitement into me. I gasp and moan, grinding for more. He chuckles deeply and kisses my neck, finding my weak spot almost immediately and sucking on it. He slowly pushes inside me and works to thrust and grind into me gently. He wanted to make sure I wasn't hurt, but all wanted was for him to hurt me. Make me remember his voice each time the remaining pain makes me twinge. Screaming for him to be rough with me, I rip my nails across his right shoulder blade. Blood coats my nails as he growls, eyes flaring with a need and bloodlust I had only seen during his fights. He smirks, tilting his head down so parts of his face were hidden in his shadow and his eyes glowed with a passionate flame.

He pulls his hands away from me, standing still, and lets me slip down the wall. I yelp and grip his shoulders for support when he tilts his head in a questioning manor, a killer's grin gracing his lips. He grips my throat and slams me again the wall. My eyes close on impact, struggling to concentrate, as his lips lean into my ear.

"I was trying to be gentle for my virgin, but I will enjoy this oh so much more."He growls, letting it rumble through my bones as his shadow reappears and takes hold of my wrists again. This time they were bound in front of me, pulled just out of reach of his perfect being, and my ankles were shackled to the wall to keep me from moving. I was literally as his disposal and he loved it. He lets my throat go only to pull out of me and let me slip. He leans away from me and looks down at his erected other member. I bite my lip and look at him, memorizing ever curve of his body before he could grip my hair and pull my face down to his groin. I smile faintly and lick the water from his head, teasing it with my lips. His head drops back as another bone vibrating growl rumbles through him. He grips my hair again and thrusts himself into my mouth and down my throat. It took me by surprise, but the real surprise was how excited him being in control made me. I moan and let my tongue dance over his shaft as he fucks my mouth. I whimper and work only to hear him growl and groan. Soon his nails are running down my back as his other hand rests on my head, enjoying my body as it shivers and convulses slightly under his touch, and reaches his climax deep in my throat.

As he pulls away, pushing me back against the wall, his smile slips. He watches me swallow his warmth as if he could see it through my skin. He grips my throat again and kisses me hard, letting his tongue violate my mouth. With him this close and this hungry for me, I never wanted to stop. He knows it and rubs his excitement against my slick folds. I whimper and grind against the air, begging for him to enter me again. He smiles and kisses my jaw. I knew what he wanted to hear, what he wanted me to say, and with each passing second his member was rubbing me just the right way I knew I had to.

"Please. Vlad, please I need you."I whimper, answering his unspoken request. His eyes widen slightly, taken off guard by my tone, and answers my own request. He thrusts into me again, though this time I wasn't given time to adjust. My skin seems to explode with an energy I hadn't experienced before. Was it because I was new at all of this or was something wrong? But how could something be wrong when it felt so right? I push the thoughts aside and grind along with him, tugging on the restraints to get free. He smirks and kisses me, leaning in just enough so my fingers can brush his skin. I whimper and moan for him to come closer, but he refuses.

"You got your wish, Princess. Don't push the limits of your own body."He growls in a tone that made my entire body scream and shiver, gripping my hair and pulling my head back slightly. Had he not let go completely with me? The thought of this being intensified was making me greedy, hungry for a taste of his true lust, but he was right. I nod as much as his grip will allow and try to keep up with his gestures until my orgasm takes control yet again. I can't help but let his name slip uncensored from my lips this time as my body twists and bends at his will. He groans my name and kisses my neck once more before holding me as his shadow retracts for the last time. Finally I get to touch him. He holds me close and kisses down my neck and collar bone as I finish showering. He helps me out of the tub when I'm done, showering himself, and points to the clothes on the dresser.

One set was pajamas and another was hung on hangers. My black uniform I recognized, but the other thing I didn't. I look at it and realize it's my uniform hung in a black leather women's trench coat. It was beautiful. I smile and hang the suit with my new coat next to the mirror and go to get dressed when I noticed the mini fridge and microwave in the corner of the room. Why was that in here? I step forward to investigate when Alucard walks out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist. He quickly gets dressed in his own pajamas, which only consisted of simple black jaw string pants, as I change into the long shirt and shorts that were laid out for me. I turn toward him and smile. His body was taunting my very soul. I shake my head slightly and kiss him, tracing his muscles down his back and ever up his abs. Before I knew it, I was in his arms and cradled in bed next to him. He wraps the blanket around us and lulls me to sleep.

The next morning I was jolted into alertness by a rapid zap of electricity starting in the middle of my palms and working its way up my arms. It didn't hurt, at first, but gradually increased with each shock. Before I knew it I was screaming in pain and clutching the sheets under Alucard and I. My eyes are closed tight but I can feel him near me.

"What happened? What's wrong?"Integra asks worriedly, rushing into the room. I try to answer but my own screams cut off the words before they can form on my tongue. Alucard goes to pull me into his lap when he curses and growls, complaining of a shock. What was wrong with me? What was happening?

"It seems Miss Cross has a unique gift. Much like Alucard can vanish into the shadows, regenerate and morph into anything he likes, she seems to posses the gift of electricity."Walter explains as calmly as possible as he shouts over my muffled calls for relief. I open my eyes and see Alucard watching me in pain and regret as if this was his fault. I didn't blame him. There was no way he could've known, but just as the pain seemed to reach its peak, he puts a hand on my cheek. I cringe, praying I didn't hurt him, but no screams or faint curses were heard. I hadn't hurt him. I look at him and watch as he leans over me. The closer he got the more the shock wave seemed to dull until his lips touched mine. All of the electricity shifted into our lips and literally gave us a spark between us. When he pulls away, he pulls me into his arms and holds me, whispering Romanian lullabies to me again. Integra walks toward me and holds out her hand. I look at her cautiously.

"Alucard seems to be your anchor. I just want to see how well it works."She says, motioning me to stand. I gulp nervously and stand, gently touching her hand. Nothing happened. She smiles and grabs my hand.

"It appears because he's your maker that he has the ability to subdue your gift. Now all you have to do is control it."She says, smiling faintly. I smile and wrap my arms around her for the first time as a vampire. I made sure to be gentle though I couldn't help but hold her close. She smiles and hugs me back until a deep burning sensation scrapes down my throat and tugs at my stomach. I pull away and look at her sadly when I notice a throbbing vein and her heart beat suddenly fills my senses. I growl and cover my mouth, rushing into the bathroom. I can hear Alucard chuckle as he ushers Integra, Walter and Seras out of the room.

"You can come out now,Princess. You're just hungry."He calls. I open the door and see him standing in front of a microwave stirring a liquid in a coffee cup. He hands it to me, licking the spoon he used, and nods for me to drink. The liquid matched his coat and it took me a minute to realize I was holding a cup of blood. I nod slightly to myself and sit on the bed next to him, sipping the warm liquid. At first, I only tasted it but after a few sips I had grown extremely thirsty. He smirks and watches me drink, finishing the cup and sitting it on the dresser, before wrapping his arms around me. I lick my lips and smile, making him chuckle as he tilts my chin up toward his.

"I wasn't exaggerating. You really do make a great vampire."He whispers softly with a grin and kisses me gently. I smile and kiss him, letting him lie me down again. Maybe this time I won't wake up screaming.
