Bloody Love

chapter 18

Integra's pov

It was around 11 at night when Stella and Alucard returned. They both came into my office and they seemed to be avoiding each other. "Well are you going to give me the report of not?" I asked. "Mission success, the only injuries was when I shot this dumbass in the head for pissing me off when I wasn't fully awake." Stella said while gesturing to Alucard at the last part. I rolled my eyes at the two of them. "Dismissed." I waved them off so I could finish my paperwork. There was definitely something going on between those two.

Stella's POV

After reporting to Integra I headed into the kitchen to see Seras heating up a blood packet. "Yo. When did you return?" I asked while reaching in the cupboard for some oreos. "Really early this morning. So how'd it go being alone with Alucard." She teased. "He's an asshole," I remarked. Seras rolled her eyes as she took a sip of the blood. "What does blood taste like to a vampire?" I asked. "Well, I can depend. Overall blood is kinda sweet, but O negative is the sweetest, and the person's lifestyle will give the blood a bit of a unique taste to it as well." She replied thoughtfully. I hummed as the new information sunk in. At that point Pip walked in. "Yo frenchy." I said while popping an oreo in my mouth. "Nothing much," He said as he attempted to take a cookie. I slapped his hand away. "damn, you need to watch that strength of yours, that hurt like hell. You may be human but you sure as hell have some inhuman strength." Pip mumbled while rubbing his hand. At his comment, I threw the oreos back in the cabinet and went back into my room. I hate when they point out what my father did to me. I just want to be normal human. I picked up my guitar and began strumming a random tune. "That's a pretty sad melody you got there, what's got you so upset. I've never seen such a frown on your face," Alucard said from the corner of the room. "You really need to stop phasing through my walls," I muttered under my breath. "No insults, somethings really bumming you out. Tell me." He persisted. "Why do you care," I asked. He raised an eyebrow and sat next to me on the bed and wrapped an arm around my shoulders. "Because, you're pretty cool and I don't like seeing you bummed out." He said. "Alright, I'll spill. It's just that I really don't like being reminded about my father's experimentation on me. I mean really, what am I? I'm a freak." I ranted. "No your not. Your just a human with special abilities, it makes you better than anyone else. Nobody else could kill a vampire the way you do." He reassured me with a smile. I blushed at his compliment. "Why don't we go train some." He said. He stood up and offered me his hand. I took it and stood up. We then walked side by side to the training field.
