part 5

....

Lilith Growls spitefully glaring at him breathing heavily

Alucard smirks, his grip on her neck tightening slightly

"Ah, there's that defiance again. You just can't help yourself, can you? You're like a wild animal, struggling against a leash. But I'll tame you, little toy. I'll teach you to obey."

He leans in even closer, his breath hot against her skin

"And when I do, you'll beg for my bite. You'll beg for my touch. You'll beg to be mine. And I'll gladly take you."

He leans back, his grip on her neck loosened slightly

"But for now, I have other matters to attend to. You're free to wallow in your defiance if you like, but know that I will be back. And I expect you to be ready."

He releases her wrist and neck, stepping away from the bed

Lilith glares sheathing with Anger.

"...."

Alucard looks down at her, a smirk on his lips

"I expect you to be more obedient the next time I see you. And don't try to deny my blood again, or I'll have to punish you. You're my property, and you will remember your place."

He gives her one last look satisfied turns and strides out of the room, the door slamming shut behind him

Lilith Screams loudly

"Argggggh—!"

...There's no response to her scream other than the echo of it through the castle halls. She is well and truly alone....

Lilith laid back down crying, her heart heavy and filled with sorrow the knowledge of her deceased father kept replaying in her mind. His cruel, cold and harsh word ringing in her ears like a broken record. She held her hair feeling like she was going to run mad any second. But she knew she couldn't do anything about the situation, she was helpless, vulnerable and weak compared to Alucard.

..."maybe he was right?, maybe he has a point?, is there really any point in this fruitless struggles?, should she just give up and let him do what he wants?, should she submit?....

...After all no one in the world cares about her. She had been forgotten and abandoned in this Forsaken land....

....

...Hours pass, the sun slowly disappearing behind the horizon, bathing the castle in a hazy purple hue....

..............................................................................

Alucard strides through the halls, his expression serious but composed. He arrives at a grand door, intricately carved with scenes of violence and bloodshed.

He pushes open the doors, entering a dark room lit only by a few wall-mounted torches. The air is thick and heavy, the scent of blood and earth palpable. In the center of the room stands a grand dining table, the stone surface covered in intricate carvings. He strides to the table and takes a seat, folding his hands in his lap as he waits.

.............................................................................

"You're late."

Alucard's voice is calm yet commanding.

Standing before him was one of his Servants. A young boy wearing a white garment holding a lamp, the boy trembles, his eyes wide as he approaches the table, stopping a few feet away.

..."He's already here... I'm doomed."...

...

"I'm sorry, Master. I-"

"Save your apologies. I don't want to hear them."

Alucard stands up and walks around the table, his footsteps heavy and deliberate.

 The boy takes a step back, his heart pounding in fear.

Alucard reaches out and grabs the boy's arm, holding it tight. The boy flinches, his eyes going wide with terror.

"But don't worry. I have a way to ensure that you'll remember your lesson this time."

"Please, sir. I'm sorry. I'll do better, I swear.

Alucard looks down at him with a stren expression.

"I've heard that before. You'll have to forgive me if I don't believe you."

"Please, Master!. I'll-"

"Shut up. You've said enough."

Alucard's voice is colder than before, his grip on the boy's arm tightenings.

The boy gasps in pain, tears now falling freely down his face.

"Argh...ah..." He grunts in pain

"Please!! No!.. I'm sorry–"

Alucard ignores him.

"You've proven time and time again that you can't be trusted to behave yourself. You need a lesson in obedience, something to remind you of your place."

He drags the boy over to the table, shoving him down on top of it, face down.

"You're nothing but a disobedient child, in need of correction. And I'm going to give it to you."

Alucard's voice is low and dangerous as he grips the boy's shirt, ripping it off and tossing it aside.

"You're going to learn to fear me. You're going to learn that I'm in control, and that you belong to me. You're my tool, my pawn, and you'll behave accordingly."

"You're going to learn to listen to me, and follow my orders. You'll obey me without question, or you'll suffer the consequences."

He pushes the boy down onto the table, pinning his arms behind his back.

He holds the boy down, his grip tight and unyielding. The boy squirms and struggles, his eyes wide with terror.

"Please I Beg you!! Don't cut me!.... He crys loudly."

Alucard ignores his protest his index finger sharpens as he cuts through the boys right hand drawing out blood into a glass cup the blood dripping as the boy grunts and shouts in pain.

"Ahhhh!!" He screams in pain echoing through the room.

.....

...*Drip*......

Alucard satisfied with the amount Glares at him sending a cold shiver down his spine. He immediately pipes down trembling. with tear Streaked face and running nose his hand trembling.

"And if you ever cross me again, I'll punish you. I'll hurt you, I'll degrade you, whatever it takes to teach you your lesson. Do you understand?"

The boy nods, his body shaking with fear. His voice is a trembling whisper.

"Y-yes... Master. I understand..."

"Good. You'd do well to remember that."

He leans down, his voice dropping to a low growl.

"Because I will not tolerate disobedience. And if you cross me again, I'll make sure you regret it."

With that, Alucard releases the boy's arms, stepping back and looking down at him. The boy quickly scramble off the table, his body shaking and his eyes wide with fear. He hurriedly grabs his torn shirt holding it on his arm and scurries out of the room, leaving Alucard alone in the now silent room.

As he seats down sipping on the glass.
