BaΠe of Nigh† (Hellsing)

the speech (10)

The drive was a quiet one. The vampire wished he could read her mind, but it was a dark black slate. Her green eyes had an intensity Vlad had not seen before. Angel was truly upset, and it was over him. Vlad (Alucard) was quite pleased. The young woman was more enthralled with him then Mina was. Oh, what a catch she will be!

The tribal woman could possibly break the Hellsing sigils and he would be free to roam again. Finally, a woman fit to be a queen to him in his undead life.

Vlad cleared his throat, " I can be quite persuasive, my dear."

"When Frank says no it is forever and a day..." a tear slowly rolled down her right cheek.

The Mini Cooper drove into the parking lot and stopped in the spot she always parked. Angel let a long sigh out then went to open the car door. How had Vlad gotten out of the car so fast and opened the door for her, Angelica wasn't quite sure. She took his left hand and got out of the car. Her guardian watched the whole scene from the side door of the club.

"Angel! Tend bar! I will speak with Mr. Dragos in private."

"Yes Frank, I completely understand." and she ran through the door.

Vlad had a tiny smirk, she really needed to wear skirts more often than ripped jeans. Angel had a great figure worth being proud of. For a moment, carnal thoughts crossed his mind. Oh, she was so his!

What would she do if her guardian refused? Would she defy him? The look in her eyes said yes, she was prepared to do that very thing. Did she have a 'crush' or was it the beginnings of love humans get caught up in?

Vlad walked up to the guardian, "Good evening Mr. Austin, how are you this fine evening?"

"My evening will be much better once you are gone..."Frank said with a stern and angry tone.

Vlad offered a handshake, but Frank refused it. "I am Count Vlad Dragos, and I would like your permission to date to Angeline Colter, from this day forward."

"No. just flat out no!" the guardian yelled a loud.

"I see, may I ask the reason?" Vlad was pondering a little mind roll of Frank.

"You are too old and not good for her! You will take her away from her third year of college for law and her people. You will distract her with your decadent lifestyle and leave her when it is time for you to settle down. She has no title such as countess or duchess."

"You have valid points and having a relationship with me could lead to all those things but moving on. I am only a count, by title mostly, so marriage is a possibility," his voice quiet compared to Frank's.

"No, she is an American and a country girl, she would never fit into your European world She is not an exotic animal that you cage up and show to your high society associates when you feel like it!" Frank's face was red with rage. "You are forbidden to see her, and I will call the police if I see you near her ever again."

"Once gain Mr. Austin, good evening and thank you for speaking with me about Angel..."Vlad tipped his head once.

Vlad walked to the nearest street corner and found a spot to change his looks, in the shadows. The gauntlet was thrown down and it was time for "Red' as Angel called him, to make an appearance. Frank was not going to stand in the vampire's way, of getting the young woman. He had claims to her and that was it. Albert had been showing a little too much interest in Angel. He needed to question the Imp further. The demon was not sharing all that he knew on the girl.
