Alucard was told to leave Angelica alone to continue her research on the mirror. That she was preparing for an important meeting, with some experts, on the language found inside the frame of the mirror. The old Vampire noted, Walter was busy getting tailor made clothes for the occasion. Angelica was constantly in front of a mirror, speaking a forgeign language and practicing gestures that reminded him of what he had liked, when vampiresses came to pay a visit. The female vampires in their all their grace and mannerisms. Angel's practicing only made him more and more curious.

It also increased his sexual desire, in her, by several fold. Sir Hellsing had ordered him, upon pain and confinement from his seals, to not touch her until the meeting concluded in a week.

Finally the day before the meeting at a farm near Stonehenge, did Alucard see the whole package and he was not amused, to say the least. He now knew who it was Angelica was going to address and why he couldn't even 'scent' her. The Vampire King had heard the tail end of the conversation on how the evening might go. Angelica headed to the room, she practiced in front of a human made mirror and did one last run through.

"Tráthnóna maith a thabhairt duit Rí na sidhe unseelie (Good evening, be to you King of the Unseelie Sidhe.)"

"Is mian liom cead a bheith i do láthair. 'Is féidir liom bronntanais a thabhairt ach faraor a dhéantar ach amháin ag lámha an duine. (I wish permission to be in your presence. I do bring gifts but sadly are only made by human hands.)"

Angelica was so concentrated on her words and pronunciation that she didn't notice Alucard watching.

"Iubitul meu ai practicat destul..."

"What?" Angelica spun around in the emerald green silk and velvet dress. "Evening Alucard....is something wrong?"

"Indeed, there is much that I find wrong. Everyone is keeping secrets from me, which is not a big thing except you...there is not supposed to be secrets and I expect answers," he said in a low, menacing voice. "Who is this man you do this all for? What power and sway does he have over you for such a performance?"

"King Oberon..."

"King Oberon? A king of the fae court...I am most displeased now," he growled.

"Alucard, it is his mirror and has been trapping victims for centuries. We have only found a few so far and I think there maybe at least a dozen around England. I am going to seek an audience as the mirrors are particularly 'honed' in on me. Wouldn't you say?" Angelica looked Alucard in the eyes, to show she was not lying.

"I see, have you met Oberon before? That is how you know it is his mirrors...."

Angelica walked over to the Vampire, dressed in red. "Yes Alucard and almost ended up knowing him too well, due to mispronouncing his language. I doubt the Queen of the light court will be at this meeting this time..."

"You will not be going. That is my decision and I will be speaking to my Master..."Alucard hissed with fangs bared. "You have my Master even scheming against me. I am not allowed to touch you, so as to let this immortal know that you belong to another...this fae king will snatch you up and never let you free."

"Alucard...I highly doubt it as long as I don't offend him. Why would the fae king take interest, in a frail mortal, like me? What can I offer to him?" Angelica said now, with a tired voice.

"Why did he allow you an audience before?" the Unholy King removed his sunglasses, so she could see his smouldering eyes and the look of disapproval in them. He wanted to intimidate her into stopping this foolish plan.

"SPARK arrived on an investigation and I was able to convince the light and dark court to let me speak to them..." Angel shrugged her shoulders. "The Fae are the fae and I don't begin to try to figure them out. I have been granted an audience, so I am dressing nice, bringing gifts of food and making sure I don't tell him to fuck me while eating candied mushrooms on his throne."
