The first time she had met Hector was when her father had taken both her and her twin brother on a visit; he had said he met this talented scholar during his travels.
She wasn’t necessarily pleased to go visit, what she thought would be, an old wrinkly man. When the door to the dark cottage opened to reveal a boy, roughly about her age, she was interested.
“Oh?” She let out a surprised sound when feeling something furry brush up against her foot “What an adorable cat!” She squealed, causing her brother to roll his eyes, watching her lift the injured animal in her arms and pet it “Shouldn’t she be dead with these wounds?”
Looking at the man called Hector, she saw him scratch the back of his head with a smile “That’s…kind of what I do.”
Her brother let out a sigh “He’s a forgemaster, idiot.” He whispered sharply “You would have known that if you listened to father rather than prance about the field.”
“Adrian.” His father, naturally, overhead and drew his boy’s attention “Be nice to your sister.”
“Yea, Adrian.” The girl stuck out her tongue accompanied by a shit-eating grin all the while toying with the pet in her arms only to be met with the middle finger when their father turned around.
Hector was enthralled by her energy, unable to take his eyes off her as she went around with blatant curiosity, enjoying the company of the various pets.
“To what do I owe the pleasure, my Lord?” The silver haired boy offered the count and his disgruntled looking son a seat all the while keeping an eye on the frolicking girl “Can I help you with anything?”
The black haired man heaved a long sigh, leaning his hand onto the wooden table while rubbing at his temples in a tired gesture “The humans have taken my wife, Hector,” he began “Burned her at the stake.”
The blonde vampire had his fist clenched while his sister went quiet; the sorrow-filled air wrapped around the forgemaster, he could feel it press down on him like no weight ever has.
“I’m really sorry to hear,” he began, glancing to and from the three of them before having his eyes fixed on the trembling lips of the girl who only a minute ago was happily smiling.
“My children have said the castle feels lonely,” the man began “And so, in an attempt to secure their happiness, I’ve come to you in search of pets.”
Hector quirked his brow “Pets?” He couldn’t believe his ears, the ruler of vampires had come to ask him for pets, he could barely hold back his laugh when seeing the solemn nod. Standing to his feet, he passed by the girl who was rubbing the tummy of a grey little pug “She’s obviously gotten quite attached to my little dog,” he chuckled before bending down to lift him into his arms.
- alucard,
being the edgy boi ™he is, took home a snake- you took home a rat and two kittens
- dracula got himself a large dog
- before leaving you asked Hector if you could come visit again because you’ll miss the lil pug
- needless to say he was extremely happy to hear that; it had been long since he had any sort of company and how could he say no
- you would come visit him at least twice a week if not three times, showing up at his door with a large grin
- after a few times he’d come to wait for your visits, feeling seriously down on the days that you couldn’t come over
- you had asked him to teach you forgemastery
(primarily because it looked really cool)- he agreed on the condition that you have picnics and outdoor walking with him afterwards; naturally you accepted
- over time the two of you had grown very close and without even noticing, it wasn’t long before you held each other in warm embraces and whispered comforting words of affection to one another
- dracula was seemingly oblivious to this, thinking the two of you were merely good friends and actually being thankful to Hector that he got you to develop a passion in something constructive
- that was until you were late coming home one evening and he was getting worried, not wanting to lose any more of his family
- using his mirror, he decided to look up your location, catching you and your beloved in an embrace
“I need to get home,” she whispered and he pressed a kiss to her forehead with a forlorn look, grimacing at the thought of her leaving.
“Will you return soon, beloved?” He inquired and she nodded, barely managing to pull herself from his arms, not wanting to leave more than he did.
- when she got home, she was met with a smug looking brother, rubbing the head of his pet snake and a stern looking father
- the only reason he was upset was because she hadn’t told him, in all honesty(and much to Adrian’s dismay) he was so happy you and hector were in a relationship; he cherished and respected your lover and told you that you couldn’t have found a better man
