The Love of a Wolf and a Bat - Chapter 20

                                    

                                          
I awake slowly becoming aware of voices around me. I am no longer laying at the entrance of the castle instead I am lying under a tree. Someone had tucked a blanket around me and left my satchel next to me. Yay, spare clothes. I quickly tug on some pants and a loss fitting shirt. My boots had been destroyed in transformation so I am forced to go barefoot. 
                          
My heart sinks as I see Sypha and Trevor loading up the carragagie. I guess I never thought about what happens now that Dracula is no more. 
                          
"Afternoon sleepy head." Trevor spots me as he loads another box into the wagon. I flip him off with a sleepy groan. If he wants to go through the transformation and fight the vampires he can be my guest. 
                          
Alucard quickly warps to my side "How are you feeling?" His voice is smooth but I hear hints of concern. 
                          
I yawn rubbing my eyes "I'll be fine." I pause considering how I should go about this. "Thank you for bringing me to my senses yesterday, nobody has ever been able to do that before" I reach up and grab his face pulling him down into a gentle kiss. I feel him freeze up under me for a second then he relaxes, snaking an arm around my waist he deepens the kiss. I can hear Sypha giggling and Trevor smirking. I swear to all things unholy if he whistles I am personally tearing him a new hole. Lucky for him he doesn't. Alucard and I break apart slowly, he stands there not moving for what seems like hours but then he hugs me against his firm chest. 
                          
"I love you Charlie" He whispers in my ear sending waves of emotion down my spine
                          
"I love you too Alucard" I whisper just loud enough for him to hear. Everything just seems right. I would have given anything to just stay there a little longer. But soon Sypha and Trevor had to leave. They made an offer for me to come with them but I think that everyone knew that I wasn't going to leave. Holding Alucard's hand in mine, gently shaking my head no. This is my place now with Alucard. Guarding the Belmont hold and the remnants of Dracula's castle. Which apparently can never move again because Sypha broke it no matter how much she tries to argue. 
                          
Sypha and Trevor wave back at us as they cart away. Alucard and I exchange a mischievous look before flipping them off. I hate goodbyes this way they will have something to come back too. We wait until we can no longer see them then Alucard and I turn and walk back to Draulas castle hand in hand. A dhampir and a werewolf together forever.
