Author/Artist: [livejournal.com profile] fujurpreux
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Nothing too graphic, but Integral is 15 years old here.
Prompt: Hellsing, Alucard/Integra: May/December - It couldn't hurt
Word count: 480
Summary: The master has to make sure everything runs smoothly.
A/N: --

After two years, Integral was finally accepting the value Alucard had for the Hellsing Organization. She had understood from the beginning the advantage he gave them, and the irony of them keeping alive under their roof the very thing they were created to destroy had never escape her --even though he was under their command.

She accepted it, but she didn't approve of it. Fortunately, as Walter had put it, she wasn't expected to like it. And she didn't. Yet, she found the vampire utterly fascinating, which made her feel disgusted at herself.

He was a monster, but he claimed to be her monster, and perhaps Walter should've told her to stay away, to keep her distance. He didn't. Walter remained silent on the matter and thus the master got closer to the servant. She even went down to his chambers every once in a while --although she did have to expel him from hers most of the time.

One day, she was standing underneath the door frame observing how he drank from a bag of medical blood. He knew she was there, but neither of them said a word for a long while and the only sound in the room was the vampire's slurping. He was most certainly doing it on purpose to irritate her, but she wasn't going to acknowledge it.

"The anticoagulants leave a very interesting aftertaste," he said finally, when he emptied his bag.

"That's not of my concern," she replied. "As long as you're well fed, the rest takes care of itself."

"It does?" he said. "Do you mean that I would only destroy a human being motivated by hunger?"

She frowned. "Of course not," she said, her voice steady. "You are a vicious creature; you'd kill on a whim if you could, whether you're hungry or not."

He smiled a toothy grin. "Well said. Therefore, things don't take care of themselves. You take care of them, my master." He bowed his head low at the last two words.

Integral took a step forward. "I do." Or she should, for that matter.

He remained still, eyes fixed on her.

She took her time but he waited patiently.

It couldn't hurt, she told herself. It shouldn't hurt, this is my duty.

Once she reached him, she produced a letter opener from her pocket and cut her index finger with it.

Blood flowed and dripped all the way down to the floor, but the vampire didn't move until she offered her hand to him. "This is the blood that wakened you, and this is the blood that shall sustain you," he told him. He then took her hand very gently, and lowered his head like he was about to kiss it.

Integral stood there, looking at him, just looking. And doing her best to ignore that feeling bellow her belly that was not fear.
