[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
Integral was sitting in her office with Seras Victoria discussing plans for their next few missions when there was a knock on the door. “Come in.” She ordered. She smiled at Alexander Anderson as he approached the desk.
“Good evening, Sir Hellsing.”
“Good evening, Alexander.” She turned towards Seras. “Seras, we can discuss this later. I want to meet with Alexander and discuss his new role in Hellsing.” Somehow it didn't seem right not to call him Father but it was no longer accurate so she forced herself not to say it.
Seras got up and grinned at the former priest. They had become somewhat friendly since Anderson's arrival at Hellsing. They both had a healthy respect for each other's skills as a warrior. “Yes, Sir Integral. Let me know when you're ready to meet. Perhaps Mr. Anderson can join us. He is warrior too.”
“Aye, that I am, for what else is there left for me to be? But, could you ladies refrain from calling me Mr. Anderson? It just doesn't sound right to me ears. Alexander would be fine.”
Seras blushed and apologized. “I'm sorry…err Alexander. It just doesn't seem formal enough for you. I'll be leaving now.”
Integra waited till she left and shut the door and gestured for the former priest to have a seat. “SoI imagine you have cabin fever? Bored with the books and tellie already?” Integral took a sip of red liquid from a goblet and slowly inhaled her imported cigar.”
Alexander shifted in his seat. “Aye, I am, Sir Hellsing. It is the first time in my life, I've had free time. I've thought enough about the past and future. I'm ready to start killing demons again.” Anderson grinned in delight at the thought.
“Good. Would you like to help plan the missions with Seras? We have intelligence about where most of the remaining vampires are. I thought you, Seras, and Alucard, could split up and patrols the areas - just until we get an army formed. We have to try to contain the problem before it spreads.”
Alexander looked at the woman he would be serving. It was hard for him to believe she was a midian. Integral seemed so calm, controlled, and civilized - not at all like her demon servant. Anderson could feel his desire growing for her, each time they met. Anderson had to look away or risk his dirty secret being discovered by Integral. “Sir Hellsing, I hope I do not offend thee. I am not military planner - I am an assassin. Tell me who to kill, where to go, and I'll be there. I have no desire to plan out missions.”
Integral nodded. “I understand - I just wanted to give you the opportunity to do more. ” Integral inhaled slowly on her cigar while looking the former priest over with her eyes. She could not help but notice how handsome he was. Integral looked forward to getting to know him even more intimately in the months to come. “And Alexander?”
“Yes, Sir Hellsing?”
“I would like you, Alucard, and myself to have a meeting sometime this week.” She paused and studied his reaction. Integral sensed the tension in his body grow. “You don't have a problem with that, do you?”
Alexander Anderson was not sure what his true feelings were in that regard. He had mixed feelings about the demon vampire. Alexander still hated him - that would never change. Alucard was pure evil - contained on a leash that the Hellsing organization used to fight other evil beings. And yet…Anderson respected the power that Alucard possessed and the code he lived by. “Sir Hellsing, you saved my life by allowing me to serve Hellsing. I shall meet with you and your Servant if you wish. May I ask why?”
Integral smirked. “You and Alucard are former or perhaps still enemies. Now you are both working for Hellsing, on the same side. There may be a time Alexander, when you may have to fight side by side. I don't' want you two to start dueling with each other when you are fighting enemies. I just want us all to come to an understanding…to avoid any conflicts. Okay? It will be a peaceful meeting.”
Anderson nodded. “Just let me know when it is, Sir Hellsing. I'll be there. Is there anything else?”
“No, Alexander. I just wanted to thank you. I know you did what you thought was right. But, thank you.” Integral stood when Anderson did and walked towards him. She put her hand over his and stroked it with her cool hands as she looked into his green eyes. “I know this has been a difficult adjustment. Things will get easier - just give it time.” Integral felt the response of his body, the increase in his body temperature and the quickening of his heart beat. She couldn't help but smirk as she watched him leave. Things at Hellsing are about to get extremely interesting.
I agree, Master. Alucard formed from a barely visible cloud of mist from a dark corner of the room.
“Alucard! How many times must I tell you? Do not eavesdrop on my conversations. I will keep you informed of all that you need to know.”
The vampire smirked. “I'm only protecting you, my Master. That man is a Catholic. They cannot be trusted. Look what Maxwell did to London after pretending to by your ally.”
“Alucard do not expect me to share your suspicions. Anderson is nothing like Maxwell. I hate to even say that man's name aloud.” Integral could feel the tension build in her neck. How she hated that man. His death had not been painful enough. Integral wished she were the one who had impaled the bastard.
Alucard had to refrain from smiling as he read Integral's mind. So his Master did long to kill certain humans. Alucard knew she would be a No Life King before long. “I still don't trust him - that man tried to kill you once. I shall watch him like a hawk.”
“Very well, Alucard. I would not expect anything less. Now - I have paperwork to do and would like some privacy.” Integral rubbed her temples as she spoke. “Please leave. We'll meet tomorrow and you can voice your concerns, okay?”
“As you wish, Master.” Alucard transformed into mist and vanished through the walls. The trick never ceased to amaze Integral. She wondered how long it would take her to learn. It could be quite useful during meetings of the Round Table.
Anderson sat in his room looking at the clock. 8:00 PM. - two hours left until he met with her. And that damned demon. Inside his heart, conflicting emotions fought fiercely against each other. Alexander had thought about nothing since waking besides Integral Hellsing. Even as a vampire, her beauty haunted him. Anderson felt like he was losing control and it unnerved him. Alexander felt his obsession with Integral growing slowly every day. He tried to deny his feelings, push them under the surface, but they were there - constantly. When his body gave in to the demands of sleep and when he awoke in the morning - his desire for the Hellsing woman remained steady and grew deeper. Now, he would have to meet with her Servant, the devil himself. Anderson hated him for many reasons. The evil he has committed, his thirst for blood, and for his service of Integral. Anderson longed to serve her too. And he hated himself for it.
He thought of the last boss he served, Maxwell, as laid on his bed. He cursed at the fate God had given him. Alexander would have prayed for patience but he was not in the mood to talk to God. Anderson felt betrayed, hurt, angry. He had done what was right. Maxwell had killed innocent people in London - children, grandparents, the weak, all of those Section XIII was charged with protecting. The bastard had added to the casualties of war. His boss had deserved to die just as much as Major Max. Yet, by doing what was right, following his conscience, everything was stripped away from him: His religion, his comrades, his priesthood. The most painful thing was losing his children - his orphans. And now he was forced to work for his former enemy and with demons! He had to fight the urge to punch another hole in the wall. The walls of his room were decorated with dents, holes, and blood from his first few days. Anderson finally drifted off to sleep remembering shadows of his past.
Anderson was awoken by the chimes of his clock. The sound startled him; he jumped up from his bed. 8:00 PM - it was time. He splashed some cold water on his face and brushed his teeth. Alexander walked slowly to Integral's office wishing the meeting was over. He dreaded the thought of spending just a moment in the same room with that vampire and not being allowed to kill him.
The three of them sat at a table in a conference room in the Hellsing Mansion - all studying each other intently. The two men started at each other the longest - both sizing the other one up. It was she, Integral Hellsing, which broke the silence. Both her servant and the former priest focused their attention on her when she began to speak.
“Thank you for coming, Alexander. Is there anything you would like to say?”
“Just thank you, Sir Hellsing. If it weren't for you, I'd be dead.”
Integral smiled at the man. “I was simply repaying a debt - you saved my life as well. Are there any concerns you have?”
“No, Sir Hellsing. Just I would prefer to work alone - I do not wish to work with him.” Anderson glared at Alucard.
“And I do not want to work with him. He is a Catholic, Master. I've been betrayed once too often by their kind.”
“Fine, then it seems at least you agree on something. There may come a time, however, when you will have to work together. Can you?”
Alucard answered first, “If it is an order, Master.”
“And you, Alexander?” Integral asked.
“Aye, if I could serve that power drunk coward for so many years, I could work along side your demon, if you ask me to. I just pray it would not be a frequent request.” Anderson smiled at Integral. He could not take his eyes of his new boss. Her beauty captivated him.
“Very good. Well, if no one has anything else, you can start your assignments.” If Integral had been a human, she would have blushed. Both men seemed to be looking at her with a sort of hunger in their eyes. It was not blood lust. Just lust. She wasn't ready just yet for anything to happen between the three of them. Alucard was, of course - she could read his mind. Anderson though, Integral sensed even if he desired her, wasn't ready quite yet. After all, before the war he had been a celibate priest. Integral wanted to be alone with him first and then only if he wanted to...maybe Alucard could join them. Integral Hellsing still wasn't sure how the former priest would react to such an idea. She grinned as she thought of the two men giving her pleasure at the same time. It didn't take long before even she smelled her own desire
