Blood Sweeter than Wine

Camellia is a Dhamphir, a half breed, not wanted by the humans or vampires, but the Hellsing organization has housed her for many years, Serus finds comfort with her as an older sister, she thinks that Alucard only uses her for blood, but he sees something else.

I remember when I was a little child walking down the road with my mother, That was the first moment that I first saw him, he rode on a black horse standing as if he was a general in a mighty army, He looked down at me and smiled at me, but my mother and I walked away, I still remembered his face like it was yesterday. When we met in person so many hundred years later I was taken aback at how different he was and how he had become so…psychotic. But with me he was never that way. I was brought there, it was cold, wet, it was lightning that night, I was shaking and covered in blood. "This is our newest recruit; she will be living in the house." The deep British still echoes in my heart causing me to smile

"She is a half breed…"one of the soldiers said trying to object.

"I know that, are you questioning my order?" Her voice deepens causing me to laugh now.

"No Sir Integra."

Then I saw him again, he looked at me, I felt his eyes as if they were looking deep at my soul. I nodded to him and he smirked at me causing shivers to run down my spine, 'She is just as strong as any vampire is, do you see her wounds?" he spoke, a deep manner that caused me to shiver again.

The soldier didn't answer.

It was from then that I became an ally and I started working for the Hellsing organization.

"Camellia, they have returned."

I was jolted from my thoughts; I turned and looked at the graying man in the butler outfit "already? That is a new record."

"It was an…interesting hunt."

"What did we find?"

"It wasn't what they found, it is what found us."

I followed him down the stairs and out the front door. Integra stepped from the limo, her long blonde hair reached to her thighs, her outfit was a regular outfit that a man would where, dress shirt red tie, long trench coat boots, I thought at first when I met her she was in fact a man, but I found out that I was wrong, She looked frustrated but nodded to me her steel blue eyes sparked that I could tell she was frustrated "Camellia set up a room down stairs we have a new girl."

I looked passed her to see him Emerge from the limo, he had been carrying something though I couldn't tell what yet. My curiosity showed on my face and Integra said with a sneer "Alucard brought a new pet."

Alucard made his way over to me and I saw what he had, it was a girl maybe nineteen to twenty two oranges blonde hair, I looked at Alucard, he nodded to me "Go."

I ran into the house and he fallowed behind me, carrying the girl. The room that was empty was one of the smaller rooms, it was dark but it would do for her. I flipped up some sheets and put the bottom sheet on, Alucard waited patiently but I could tell he was getting uncomfortable, he shifted his shoulder and gritted his teeth, "There put her down, I can make a bed around her."

He set her down; I noticed on the side of her neck she had two holes, which caused me to look at him "You bit her?"

He smiled giving me a sick feeling "I had to she was in danger."

"Ah so you make a minion I see."

"That wasn't it, I had no choice, she had the choice to die or be turned and she took the choice to be turned."

I crossed my arms over my chest and sighed worriedly, "Alucard…"

"I know your worry, but don't."

He backed up to the wall and absorbed into the shadows leaving me alone with the girl, I sighed again, "Better get you out of those bloody clothes and into something comfortable."

I found a pair of pajamas that fit her perfectly and removed the bloody clothes throwing them away, "He must have seen something in you." I said talking to the girl, of course she wasn't going to talk back but I did talk to her.

"He isn't going to replace you Camellia, you know that." I heard behind me.

I turned and looked at Integra "Oh I know that, first of all he can't, but I am worried about this child right here, she is so young."

She took my side and sighed in frustration "I know, I am trying to see the bright side, so far I have not found one."

"Maybe there is a method to his madness."

"Alucard's Madness is what scares me."

I smiled as I layed the blankets over the girl "I suppose we better leave her to rest. She will wake in time."

We both walked outside together "The ghouls were taken care of correct?"

"Yes, have you ever known Alucard to leave anyone behind?"

"True."

"Why don't you check on him, I have some paper work to submit."

"yes sir Integra."

I walked down the hallway to the black door with an eye on the top of the door, I knocked, it was quiet, I sensed him and opened the door into the pitch black. "You know you could use some candles in here."

"Your part Vampire, use your vision." He said deeply.

I ended up listening to him in the end and he sat on his throne at the end of the room, his legs were crossed, he had taken off his coat, hat and glasses, "Camellia, you are looking beautiful this evening."

I looked at my dress and laughed "So jeans and a dress shirt is attractive to you, what a strange soul you are."

He boomed with laughter "Maybe it is just the light then."

"It's black as pitch you fool."

He picked up a wine glass and toyed with it, the scent was not of wine however, it was blood, I tried to ignore him but he was hard to ignore. "So, what happened tonight?" I said dryly.

He looked up at me "You want to know what you missed?"

I rolled my eyes "Of course."

"A priest took over the town and turn them into ghouls and I took care of them, I had to kill the police girl to do it, I turned her into a vampire. What more do you need."

"Nothing more." I said

"Oh and I did get shot to nothing but other than that."

"You got your fix from the girl?"

He smiled causing me to shiver again "Why are you jealous?"

I looked away from him "I never said that, I just asked if you did?"

"Not enough…but a couple blood packs will be fine for me, your safe tonight."

I smiled, "Fine."

A sudden screamed caused me to whip around to look, ALucard picked up his jacket and put it on "The police girl is awake."

He absorbed through the wall, something I wish that I could always do, I walked out of his chamber and down the hall to the girls room, Integra and Walter walked in behind me "Keep your voice down Police girl."

"Where am I? what is this place, what happened?"

The girl was sputtering off so many questions that I don't even think that she could remember what she was asking, suddenly she lifted up her shirt to look "The hole is gone, I checked." I said

She looked at me "Where am I?"

Integra smiled "The Hellsing Organization, home of the top vampire hunters in the world. And you, are the newest pet."

She looked confused that is where I took over "When Alucard changed you into a vampire you were employed to the Hellsing Organization, he is your master and you are the pet."

I that may have been a little to harsh but it was true, so I continued "You are a vampire now sweetheart, a lot have changed and now your immortal."

"I think we will leave Camellia to explain everything, Alucard come with me, I really don't want to call you Police girl."

"Yes my master."

Walter stood with me and I talked to the girl "What is your name hon?

"Serus Victoria."

"Serus then? My name is Camellia, I work for the Hellsing Organization as well."

"So I am not alone here?"

I smiled at her "No I suppose not." I looked at Walter "Can you get me a glass of water please?"

"Of course."

"I thought that Vampires only drink blood."

"They do." I replied

"So you're not a vampire?" Serus asked, she seemed disappointed.

I took the glass from Walter as he handed it to me and thanked him "Well not a full vampire anyway, I am what they call a Dhamphir vampire, a half breed."

"Camellia is a very special breed, there is no there like her you know."

I smiled at Walter "Well I wouldn't put it that way, there are Dhamphirs out there, but thanks you Walter."

"So I am forced to live here against my will and work here?"

"Well technically? Yes, but trust me it isn't that bad, it is great when you get used to it, trust me, you just need to get used to it, and trust me, I will be there for you each step of the way."

She smiled, it seemed to help her a little bit "But you have to work for it, can you do that?"

She nodded, her eyes flashed gleefully.
