marlowemuses | Sweet Obsession; for fatherssins

"Yes?" Ashley's brush paused, features pulled into an uncertain frown with a hint of a pout. "I can go without you, if you'd prefer."

The eerie and unnatural elements of Alucard's pose seemed unsurprising, and nor was the comment all that surprising. Though Ashley didn't yet know what nature of creature Alucard was, he understood enough to accept the peculiarities that he saw. Eerie and unnatural appealed to him, and Alucard was so very beautiful.

Though he didn't want to leave Alucard's company, his need for toiletries and his desire for books was certainly enough to convince him. He knew that he had no money, but that had never particularly provided a problem before, and Ashley knew ways to get what he needed.

In truth, Alucard was hoping that Ashley wasn't going to reply with that answer. He desperately wanted to stay away from hot, living bodies and cold, prying eyes but what he wanted even more than that was to make the redhead happy; he had been through so much until now. While this dilemma played through the dhampire's thoughts it reflected in the sombre, coolness in his eyes which gently turned away from his companion's countenance. The decision weighed heavily on him and it showed in its own way, not the harsh frustration you would expect on any other man's face but subtle nuances which played with his fair features.

After some time passed Alucard turned, looked back at Ashley managing the ghost of a smile and, as he had done last night by joining the boy in bed, he gave in. "No, I don't want you to feel like I don't want to be with you." he paused, feeling self conscious "I like spending time with you." That wasn't it at all, he would've been so much happier to just stay another day and night here, together, but he felt that Ashley wouldn't be satisfied with that. "I suppose we can go out." he conceded, although he looked uncomfortable doing so.

[I love that these idiots negotiate by pouting at each other.]

Ashley was torn, briefly. He had a significant submissive need to please and to earn Alucard's approval. And yet he was also spoilt, and long accustomed to coaxing until he got his way. It worked as well on Alucard as it had on Arkady. Perhaps better.

And Ashley still knew that he needed the items he'd requested. Alucard might be able to travel light, but Ashley needed to be allowed to maintain his beauty. Not to mention his desire for books and entertainment. Now that he'd been drawn out of his mausoleum, Ashley's young, hungry mind sought knowledge.

Rewarding him with a smile, Ashley went and fetched his shoes, then returned to take Alucard's hand and tug at him, kissing Alucard's cheek briefly as he coaxed him to get up.

[ omg me too, these two are so darling. ]

Alucard had no idea exactly how pliable he was; a few carefully placed touches, handholds and kisses were enough to convince him that going out with Ashley was the right thing to do. After being with the redhead for a few, short hours he already felt beholden to him, perhaps it was his air of dependence that made Alucard feel this responsible for him. The anxious, dubious expression on the dhampire's face had now shifted to something much calmer, even happy, and he returned the smile - small as it may have been.

The warmth of the kiss on his cheek lingered a moment before he stood, what little blood in his system rushing to his skull, making him feel light-headed. "Let me just find my boots." He took a moment to recover from his low blood pressure before walking to the bedside chair and putting his accessories back on. Alucard managed to look presentable even though he hadn't done the most basic of grooming; he hadn't brushed his hair, washed his face, or perhaps more concerningly, he hadn't used the bathroom whatsoever.

"Shall we go?" He asked, trying to remain optimistic about the prospect of going out, into the city, in daylight.

Ashley held his hand as they went out, staying always close by his side. He was careful to take quieter back routes and shady streets, since Ashley also disliked crowds and burned easily in sunlight.

Heading first to a little cafe, he ordered a cappuchino and a pastry to go, assuming that Alucard would handle the payment. As long as he got his treats, he didn't much care how payment did or didn't happen.

He kept Alucard reeled in with frequent little cheek kisses and sweet smiles, which served both as a much-needed outlet for Ashley's affectionate nature, and to coax his partner into continuing to spoil him.

They stopped in a drug store to pick up the toiletries Ashley needed, and then he took Alucard to a book store, wandering around the aisles and handing the small stack of books he found to Alucard to carry, with a sweet little kiss for each one. Satisfied once he had the luxuries that he considered necessary, Ashley turned back toward the hotel. "Can we go home now?"

Alucard, although not being terribly savvy when it came to social matters, had a lot of worldly knowledge. He had had the common sense to invest the limitless fortune his family had accrued over the years and had more than a few accounts bursting with old money. Paying for food and a few simply luxuries meant nothing to him and he was happy enough to do this for Ashley.

The dhampire stayed notably close to Ashley, as if intimidated or even scared of strangers. When store clerks addressed him he shied away from their greetings and allowed Ashley to take the brunt of their cheery behaviour. Miraculously, Alucard didn't come across as rude in doing this, if anything, his recluse nature made him all the more intriguing to most people. As if getting his attention was some sort of challenge. In the cafe, whilst they were waiting for Ashley's order, one of the baristas repeatedly tried to get Alucard's attention for an order to no avail.

In the pharmacy Alucard seemed fascinated by the medicine aisle and while Ashley picked up his necessities the dhampire was examining the list of ingredients on the back of a paracetamol box. Similarly, he was enthralled by the books in the bookshop and, when Alucard was convinced that Ashley wasn't looking at him, he was perusing the selection of books in the dark fantasy section of the store; a mix of horror and romance. He did not want Ashley to see him in that part of the store. When Ashley found him and asked for help with his payment Alucard insisted that he had been lost.

As soon as Ashley suggested returning to the hotel Alucard agreed and followed his companion back. While the trip had been considerably more enjoyable than Alucard had anticipated his complexion and energy looked a lot worse for wear. After taking off his boots he found the closest armchair and sank into it like an old man. He was exhausted and looked altogether unwell.

Ashley didn't mind Alucard's reclusive behavior in the least. He was happy to do most of the interaction, because it consisted almost entirely of him demanding things he wanted from the shopkeepers. He was pleased and a little surprised that Alucard paid with money, having wondered if he would create a similar situation to what had occurred at the hotel.

It pleased him, a little, that Alucard almost refused to acknowledge anyone else. They were beneath his awareness, Ashley supposed, all the happier that he had Alucard's attention.

He was amused by Alucard's lies and denials about not sleeping and not perusing the fantasy books. Picking up one of the books Alucard had not been looking at, Ashley added it to his pile.

When they got back, Ashley let Alucard rest. He gave him a few sweet kisses to his cheek and nose, then went to the bathroom to make use of his new toiletries and tidy himself up.

Feeling much better once his hygiene was no longer in a state he considered critical, Ashley slid into his companion's lap, starting with kisses and doting affection to see if that would restore Alucard's spirits. "Thank you for the books," he murmured, brushing his nose against Alucard's and pressing soft kisses everywhere but his lips.

The dhampire was very close to slipping into another one of his restless sleeps when he felt the weight and warmth of Ashley on his lap. It was undeniably comforting at first as the fatigue of the day had left him cold and sluggish, but as time when on and those kisses increased Alucard went from warmed to awkward. He couldn't deny that he was developing feelings for his new companion; this should've been a happy thing but in truth he was scared by it. With feelings came attachment and the threat of being hurt, or much worse, hurting him. Painfully torn, the dhampire cursed himself for interfering with this vulnerable innocent's life, each second they spent together he was endangering him with his own blood-lust. Not only this, but the physical attention was awakening a long-forgotten sense of desire in Alucard that he had tried to bury centuries ago.

Alucard's breathing quickened, his jaw tightened and he closed his eyes for a long moment to try and calm himself. When he finally opened them again he spoke and his voice was only just audible; a tender, trembling whisper. "S-stop Ashley, please." The words were pleading, fighting a battle against desire that he was very quickly losing. "You do not understand what you're doing to me." As broad, strong and fierce as Alucard could be he was nothing short of tender now, as if frightened by his own nature. "I'm begging you."

Startled, Ashley paused, studying Alucard's expression with concern. He didn't understand what he was doing to Alucard, since he understood merely that Alucard wasn't entirely human. He didn't know how--Alucard might be a sorcerer, the way Arkady had been, or some sort of supernatural creature. The possibilities were broad, and Ashley didn't know how to handle them because he didn't know what he was doing to his companion.

"Tell me," he murmured, leaving his arms around Alucard's shoulders and remaining in his lap though he paused his kissing for the time being. "I want to understand." He watched Alucard's eyes closely, fascinated by them, trying to make sense of what he saw.

Honestly, that hadn't helped much. Despite the removal the temptation of those lips, the warmth that Ashley generated in addition to his almost possessive touch only inflamed Alucard's desire. For someone who had seemed so utterly exhausted mere minutes ago, his energy and tension were now both flooding his system like a teenage boy in heat. "I can't--" he murmured, breathilly, trying not to get caught by those liquid, inviting eyes of Ashley's. "--I mustn't." The poor, inexperienced creature that Alucard was was now conflicted and confused with such intimacies. While part of him was relieved that Ashley had stopped his onslaught of kisses another, rawer, side of him missed the touch of them. He both regretted and delighted in his pursuit of this beautiful, damaged creature in equal measure and now that the dhampire was so firmly under the human's influence he didn't know what to do.

"Oh dear." he murmured weakly, trying with a fervour to settle the poisonous mix of desires rushing through his brain and filtering down to his arms, hands to fingertips. His lust burnt under the skin and while part of him wanted to fling this delicate, pale creature to the floor and ravage him like the monster he was, the other -human- part of him used every piece of its strength to resist. "You're... tempting me and you mustn't do that, I might hurt you."

Ashley laughed. There was no mockery in it, though he was certainly laughing at Alucard. Only sweet amusement at the absurdity of Alucard's statement. "You won't hurt me," he said, a statement of what was, to Ashley, absolute fact.

No one had ever raised a hand to him. Of all the people in the world who might possibly ever be inclined to try, his devoted and generous Alucard was certainly not one of them. Ashley didn't believe the threat for a moment.

He did, however, rise to his feet, removing temptation a few paces farther away. After fetching a book, he returned to sit near Alucard, giving him space to recover.

"Tell me," he commanded, dark eyes sparkling with possessiveness. Alucard was his, and Ashley absolutely intended to bend him to his will, which he would do entirely through sweet coaxing. The book on his lap served as an offer, a possibility. I could sit here and read. Quiet and well behaved. Or...

"Tell me what you are, or I shall resume tempting you."

Such confidence shook the dhampire: how could Ashley be so sure. They had only known each other for a day and here he was, totally assured that he could do him no harm. Alucard knew his terrible, cursed nature better (or so he thought) he didn't trust himself with sweet, beautiful things; there was too much at stake. One so full of life, as Ashley was, was worth a thousand copies of himself.

He notably relaxed when Ashley stood up, it wasn't relief per se, it was more like he'd been given a moment to breath again. Whether Ashley noticed or not, Alucard also shifted to place a cushion on his lap, an innocent would think he'd put it there on the off chance that Ashley sat there again, someone with more experience would know otherwise.

That question again, it pained Alucard to such an extent that it marred those ethereal features. The expression wasn't enough to make him unsightly, but it was as if someone had taken something beautiful and broken it. He looked away, ashamed, he didn't want to spoil this fantasy of being a normal man. How it broke his heart to be asked the one question he never wanted to answer but the one everyone was always dying to know the answer to.

"I... am a monster." he finally confided, his elegant fingers crushing the corners of the cushion on his lap, frustrated and guilt-ridden. "I've been lying to you by omission from the very beginning. I'm so sorry, forgive me, Ashley. I am not the man you might think I am. I am..." the words caught in his throat "part Nosferatu, the living dead." his confession had been a deeply pained one and during it he hadn't raised his head to look at his companion once. Whether Ashley believed him or not probably didn't matter at this point, Alucard told himself that the admission would probably destroy whatever relationship they had built to this point. "I... will leave you now, someone like you... should not be cursed by someone like me."

Ashley noticed the cushion, and was pleased by it. As innocent as he could be in many ways, he was no virgin. Sexuality was too potent a tool for him to fail to notice such an obvious clue.

He listened with interest, memorizing every word. At one point, because Alucard wasn't looking, Ashley allowed his eyes to roll upward, compelling himself to patience with how thoroughly Alucard's perspective of their relationship differed with his own. As if Ashley had thought, for a single moment, that someone as exquisite and unique as Alucard could ever be an ordinary human.

When Alucard said he was leaving, Ashley's promise to cease tempting him shattered at once. Tossing his book aside, Ashley slid straight back into Alucard's lap, tangling his hands into Alucard's hair to try and get him to look up again, so he could see the sincerity and the utter lack of fear in Ashley's dark, dark eyes. "You are not leaving me," he declared, refusing to allow for any other possibility, because to consider any other possibility would devastate him, and Ashley could almost feel it, pressing at the edges of his consciousness.

You'll leave me. Like he left me. "You will not ever leave me."

"Oh!" Alucard exclaimed when Ashley suddenly landed back on his lap, as he hadn't been looking the movement came as a total surprise, even to someone like him with his keen senses. The feeling of those fingers gliding through his hair and the accidental touch of his scalp made him shiver and when he finally rose his gaze his eyes didn't know where to land. The darted from those dark eyes, to his lips then finally away in the hope of removing such intense stimulus.

This reckless abandon and display of affection only made Alucard's desire intensify and it showed in the small changes in him. His pupils dilated, his mouth ajar and breathless. With Ashley on his lap Alucard could no longer squeeze the frustration out of him on that cushion (which was still resting on his crotch) so instead his nails were digging into the arms of the chair.

He badly stammered when he spoke "S-sweet man, you are in danger around me with each increase in second." And here was where Alucard's naivety really showed "You do not know what you do to me with your affections. I am a base creature and with each touch, every kiss, as innocent as you think they are, they push me to think of awful things. I am no good friend to you, I am selfish in this union, please, you must understand."

Awful things. Ashley wondered if he meant only sex, or if his Nosferatu was tempted to feed upon him. Or worse. Was Alucard capable of worse? Ashley wasn't certain, since his mind skittered away from the possibility that any true danger could touch him.

You will not leave me, he thought again, since that trumped everything else. He would gladly offer of himself in order to keep Alucard at his side. It wouldn't be the first time he'd done so. His body and his beauty was all he had to offer it. To get what he wanted, Ashley would give himself entirely.

Tilting his head, Ashley let his nose brush alongside Alucard's, not loosening his grip. Lips a millimeter away from Alucard's, his breath was warm and tasted of the cinnamon and sugar of his earlier pastry. "What kind of awful things?" he asked, a purr in his voice that was blatant with invitation.

Even a creature of his strength still had limits to his willpower and Ashley had been wildly putting pressure of these limits all afternoon. The dhampire, chaste and self-loathing as he was, could feel himself crossing that metaphorical line between friend and lover and in doing so felt somewhere between euphoric and wicked. As if drugged by his passion he whispered "Awful things--" echoing Ashley's last words, unable to process them properly without repeating them "--to you, as if we were lovers."

All of the energy he had put into both his blood-lust and physical desires crumbled and the sexual restraint he had been holding back shattered. Alucard's head tilted to the side minimally so that his lips could fit perfectly against Ashley's and he gave him his first, romantic kiss. While the dhampire was inexperienced his passion did most of the work for him. Both hands released from the arms of his chair, one hand settled on the small of Ashley's back whilst the other rose to cradle the back of his skull.

Alucard did not taste of sugar or sweet spices, he tastes of iron and blood and darkness. His kiss was powerful and authoritative, it was claiming and the embrace hinted at a possessiveness to match his new lover's.

Ashley melted into the kiss, savoring the possessive grip and the sweet dominance of his kiss. Sighing as he returned it, Ashley went pliant in his arms, utterly willing to be possessed. He led the kiss a little, parting his lips to invite and later flicking his tongue against Alucard's lips, tempting and then withdrawing in order to get Alucard to pursue and to claim.

Naturally vocal, Ashley didn't hold back any of his little whimpers of pleasure. He sighed into Alucard's mouth, giving soft little moans as Alucard claimed him, goading Alucard to more and savoring every moment of it.

His fingers tightened in Alucard's hair, gripping tight. Alucard was his. Had been his from almost the first moment that Ashley had seen him.

He felt like a young man, for once in his miserable life he was no longer consumed with grief and self-hate, but with affection and, to his own surprise as much as anyone else's, a real sense of playfulness. When Ashley teased him with his tongue Alucard leaned into his lover, trying to capture that mischievous gesture in his lips. Closing his eyes and sighing as the tension in his had subsided for a short while.

While Ashley was vocal, Alucard was not, disregarding for his occasional sighs of pleasure he was all but silent. Still supporting the redhead he leaned back, finally, to catch his breath more than anything else, but the kiss hadn't done much to sate his sexual appetite. Far from it, it had fuelled it. With doe-eyed consumed with lust the dhampire whispered "What should I do." not exactly looking for instruction, more that he needed to know how far to go, or not to go.

Low-lidded with pleasure from the kiss, Ashley smiled at him, basking in the knowledge that he had Alucard now, and could request anything he liked. Considering briefly, Ashley leaned forward to kiss the tip of Alucard's nose.

His smile was sweet and wicked as he reached between them, pulling the cushion up and tossing it away. Then he slid back, off of Alucard's lap, kneeling on the floor between his thighs. "I think," Ashley said, pushing Alucard's thighs farther apart and holding his gaze as he leaned in to lay a soft, wicked kiss on his fly, "that you ought to do awful things to me."

He wanted to do this, first, because he wanted to be sure of his power over Alucard, to prove to them both that Alucard could refuse him nothing, and to show that he wasn't quite the innocent that Alucard expected. "For hours," he said, and punctuated it with another soft kiss to the fabric, watching Alucard's eyes to be certain.

Had Alucard not been so very consumed by his lust he would've objected to that cushion being removed, but as he was, he was almost proud of how clearly aroused he was; trousers bulging in a very large and unmistakable shape. Unable to hold Ashley anymore one arm settled on the armrest - making him appear broader than he really was - whilst the other settled on his lap, his palm finding his new lover's cheek to cradle.

While Alucard had never been intimate with another that didn't mean that he hadn't pleasured himself, or fantasised about others pleasing him. When Ashley knelt before him his arousal increased tenfold, washing over him like heat, and he shuddered. "Ashley," he whispered affectionately, looking down at him with an expression ripe with love. "I haven't... I've never been with anyone. In all the long years of my life. Are you sure you want to share this with me?" He had to ask, aroused or not, Alucard still had a strong conscious. It was, however, obvious that he wanted this.

Ashley just grinned in response, closing his mouth around the bulge in the fabric and letting his teeth scrape very slightly against the cloth.

Sitting back on his heels, he started to unfasten Alucard's trousers, greedy to see what he could feel through the cloth. His eyes never left Alucard's face for more than a moment or two at a time. Turning his head, he kissed Alucard's palm; once, then again, again, until he reached Alucard's fingertips and could nip playfully at them.

Grinning wide, Ashley drew Alucard's length out and skimmed his fingertips admiringly over the shaft. He tipped his head to the side, pillowed on Alucard's palm as he studied him, gaze now caught on Alucard's cock. "How beautiful you are," Ashley said, very pleased by being with someone whose beauty compared to his own.

Even being as aroused as he was, he still felt bashful being exposed. Ashley was the first and only person to see him in this state and the combination of his compliments and physical attention were enough to send the dhampire into a euphoric state of shock. To say that he was sensitive was a massive understatement as even the most playful, lightest of touches had the dhampire silently shivering, twitching and in extreme cases, looking away. Ashley's touches and words were devastatingly arousing but it was that look that he kept giving Alucard that proved to be the proverbial cherry on top.

How exposed the dhampire was now, from the cold, looming figure Ashley had met only twenty-four hours ago to the quivering, twitching, handsome mess that sat before him. That being said, what Ashley said was true; Alucard was beautiful. Every inch of him carved into perfection so that even now, in his excited state, the curve of his erection, the smooth, tautness of his skin and the perfect bulge of his head looked divine in its symmetry.

When he made his first attempt to respond all that came out was a submissive "Ah.", the second time he managed to form a proper sentence "I am nothing compared to you, you sweet, loving man." His words were dripping with adoration and he looked as though he wanted to add something else, a request, but he stopped himself in the face of being too demanding. But God, how he wanted more attention there. How he craved it, even if was just teasing.

Ashley laughed with affectionate delight at the praise. He didn't know if it was true about him being sweet and loving, since he felt more possessive and manipulative, but in the most decadently generous sort of way.

He loved the sight of Alucard's exquisite agony, the evident pleasure and desperation in every line of his body. As much as Ashley loved to tease, he expected that Alucard would not last long if he'd never been touched before. More fun to ease his misery and then to take time teasing him afterward. There would be plenty of time, Ashley was quite sure of that. Years. Perhaps even centuries.

Sitting forward, Ashley flicked his eyes coyly up to his lover as he laved his tongue over the head of Alucard's cock. He watched every detail of Alucard's reactions, kissing and licking with sweet, playful promise along the side of Alucard's cock for only a moment before he closed his lips around it.

He didn't do this often. Ashley was inherently selfish, and his pleasure in this act came from his power and influence over his partner, and the praise and affection that would result. But for Alucard, his Alucard, he wanted it to be quite clear that this was what he chose.

Making a very soft sound of pleasure as he kissed the tip, Ashley slid his mouth down, swallowing Alucard's length. The dhampire was larger than any of Ashley's former partners, and Ashley only took him deep enough that Alucard's cock bumped the back of his throat before he lifted up, bobbing his head slowly.

Alucard immediately tensed. The feeling was unparalleled, not only was the promise of more attention dizzying but the acceptance of having someone want to be this close to him filled his heart fit to burst. Any element of being reserved, quiet and calm seemed to have disappeared entirely. Alucard's bare feet curled into the carpet and his thighs tightened like steel. He moaned; it was a deep, primal sound that hinted at a terrible lust that was simply begging to be released. A small drop of pre-cum seeped from the tip of cock and he felt his chest falling and rising with each desperate, panting breath he took.

The warmth of his lover's tongue, however, did not compare to the all-enveloping bliss of his mouth. Another moan, louder than before, so loud that Alucard's hand rose from the arm of his chair to cover his mouth and muffle his lusty noises. All thought of anything awful had left him, this was heavenly and he already felt his willpower being tested yet again. While Alucard wouldn't have much in the way of willpower to hold back from his orgasm, Ashley would find him not lacking in the stamina department.

While he so desperately wanted to release his other hand groped for Ashley's shoulder, upon finding it he fumbled a few dazed words "It's... it's too much." he pleaded, his face the very picture of ecstasy "I shouldn't. You should stop."

Ashley's head lifted with a laugh, sweet and delighted as ever. Utterly decadent, he watched Alucard through his lashes as he kissed along the side of his partner's shaft, pausing to tease while he replied to that irresistibly misguided comment. "You shouldn't?" he asked, wondering if this was some variety of homophobia. He'd encountered that with lovers before, but didn't really think that it was his gender that Alucard was objecting to. "What?" he prompted, rubbing his cheek along the side of Alucard's cock, wet as it was with his own spit. "Feel pleasure? Have sex? Come?"

He licked his lips and swallowed, pausing to kiss a line down the underside of Alucard's cock. The teasing was well-deserved, in Ashley's mind, in return for daring to tell Ashley that he shouldn't. "But if it's too much..." he murmured, his breath and the stir of his lips a very soft vibration against the base of Alucard's cock.

Sighing with playful melodrama, he lifted his head, laughed once, and said: "Well, pity. Because I was so hoping you would fuck me."

Not giving Alucard any time to react, Ashley swallowed him back down in one smooth, elegant movement, wrapping his hand around Alucard's length so that he could stroke whatever didn't fit in his mouth.
