[౨ৎ] synopsis: alucard tepes as a lover
[♡₊˚ ♕]: her highness's decree: if it wasn't obvious alr I have a thing for soft spoken intelligent, gentleman-like men.
‧₊˚⇢♡ a gentleman doesn't even begin to describe just how sweet he is to you.
considering Alucard was already well-mannered and more than polite before meeting you, once he falls for you (becoming immediately smitten), he's somehow even more so.
His tone becoming impossibly more gentler when talking to you, opening doors for you, pulling your your chair out for you, positioning himself in front of you at the first hint of trouble (even if you're a fighter/magic wielder).
‧₊˚⇢♡ attentive to every facet of your being.
he's very conscious of himself to ensure he isn't just staring at you but you do make it quite hard not to. Whenever you play with your hair in deep thought, the way your smile always meets your eyes, the way you silently gaze into the distance when you reminisce.
It's all so..mesmerizing—you are mesmerizing.
So while it pains the dhampir to have to tear his eyes away from you at times so as not to make you feel uncomfortableit is very tempting to not want to see every expression your beautiful face makes.
‧₊˚⇢♡ calls you "beloved", "dearest" "flower", and "my love."
Alucard is such a naturally affectionate man once he's in love that pet names become second nature to him. However, it still is so cute how he was slightly hesitant to call you anything initially usually referring to you by name—until it just slipped out.
Your breath catches for a moment, looking up at the blond from your place beside him on one of the library's plush velvet settees.
The castle is quiet around you, save for the occasional crackle from the fireplace and the soft rustle of pages turning. Warm afternoon sunlight filters through the tall windows, painting streaks of gold across the bookshelves and illuminating the dust motes drifting lazily through the air.
You'd spent the better part of the afternoon curled up together.
Your book long forgotten in your lap as you leaned comfortably against his shoulder, your head nestled against him while he read.
It was one of your favorite places to be.
Close enough to hear the steady rhythm of his breathing.
You were tracing absent patterns along the edge of your page when Alucard finally spoke. "Would you like some tea, my love?"
The word leaves his lips so naturally that neither of you seem to process it at first.
Your eyes widened slightly and you could feel Alucard stiffen slightly besides you. His gaze lowering from the book in his hand to where your head is resting on his shoulder. An adorable, light blush creeping on his pale cheeks. "Forgive me," he says quietly, setting his book aside perhaps a little too quickly. "I did not mean to presume."
The bashfulness in his voice is almost unfairly sweet, so you straighten slightly, lifting your head from his shoulder to shake your head with a soft smile. "You didn't. I don't mind you calling me that—it's sweet."
For a moment, Alucard simply looks at you. Golden eyes searching your face as though trying to determine whether you're merely being kind. When he realizes you're sincere, some of the tension leaves his shoulders.
Barely noticeable.
"I'm glad," he says quietly. His voice is softer now, the afternoon sunlight catching against the pale strands of his hair as he looks at you, and you're suddenly struck by how unfairly beautiful he is.
Especially like this.
The realization makes your smile widen slightly. "Can I call you something too?"
His brows lift. "Something?"
You nod.
"You wish to give me a pet name?"
"Well, yes."
You tilt your head. "If you're going to call me things like my love and beloved, I think I should get one too."
A quiet laugh escapes him then. "I suppose that is fair."
‧₊˚⇢♡ guides you with a hand at your back through crowded towns, unfamiliar roads and in more sketchy parts of wood
Whether you're walking through a crowded marketplace, entering a room, or simply moving through the halls of the castle together, Alucard always seems to find his place just slightly behind your shoulder.
One hand resting lightly at the small of your back.
Never possessive. More so a subtle, discreet gesture. One that many don't notice on first glance.
Like no matter where you are, he'll make certain nothing reaches you first.
₊˚⇢♡ is constantly making sure you're comfortable.
Perhaps it's because he's spent so much of his life caring for others, and caring for you is not much different nor a chore. Though it's probably because the sweet way you breathe a 'thank you Adrian,' or 'you're always so kind thank you my love.' Has him quick to whatever you need to hear those lovely again.
If you're cold, a cloak is draped over your shoulders before you can mention it.
If you're tired, he's already suggesting you rest.
If you're hungry, he's quietly finding a source of food for you.
Half the time, you don't even realize something was bothering you until he's already taken care of it.
And when you thank so softly like the angel you are?
He simply smiles.
‧₊˚⇢♡ always reaches for you in his sleep.
Alucard sleeps lightly by nature. Years of solitude and danger made certain of that. Yet slowly but surely, after sharing a bed with you, over time it's been increasingly easier to sleep soundly next to you.
Primarily because you fall asleep holding his hand.
You always knew that he carried a weight most people could scarcely imagine. The loss of his parents. His complicated love for his father. The loneliness. The years spent wandering with burdens that were never truly his to carry.
You knew there were nights his sleep wasn't peaceful.
So when you'd first begun sharing a bed, you'd made a habit of reaching for his hand before falling asleep. Not because you were afraid to sleep alone. But because you never wanted him to face even his nightmares alone ever again.
The first time you'd done it, he'd looked almost comforted yet confused. Glancing down at your intertwined fingers before looking back at you. Yet he hadn't pulled away.
And after that, it simply became part of your routine.
Until one evening, months later, as candlelight flickered softly across your shared chambers, Alucard spoke just as you were settling beneath the blankets.
"My love?"
His voice was unusually hesitant.
You immediately looked up from where you'd been adjusting the covers. "Yes?"
For a moment, he seemed almost uncertain.
Golden eyes lowering briefly.
Then—
"Would you be comfortable with..." He paused, clearly searching for the words. "Me holding you while we slept?"
A warm smile glaced your lips as your nodded, "Of course, sweetheart."
Once settled into bed, Alucard's arm settled carefully around your waist as though he were handling something precious. Slowly relaxing into you only after you had done so yourself, and once he did, it was almost as though he could finally breathe properly.
Now, months later, Alucard rarely even realizes he's doing it.
You'll wake in the middle of the night to find yourself tucked securely against his chest. One arm wrapped around your waist. His hand resting over yours. Sometimes his face buried lightly in your hair.
Other times, when nightmares try to find him, you'll feel it. The unconscious way his fingers search across the mattress. The way he reaches for you even while asleep.
Seeking warmth.
And the moment he finds you, his body relaxes. The tension leaves his shoulders. His breathing evens out once more.

Can I get a headcannon for Alucard and his s/o sharing a bed? (SFW/NSFW)
SFW
Alucard prefers to sleep on his back or on his left side.
He usually keeps to himself and maintains his personal space in bed. Fanning out or spread eagle makes him feel exposed.
In a perfect world the bedding is changed completely once a week, and the bed is made every day in his household.
NSFW
Though he finds lingerie tedious & a bit much, he likes it when his partner wears oversized shirts or dressing gowns to bed. They are billowy enough for him to slide his hands in and finds the exploration more erotic than the show.
His preference in bed is to be on his back, but he is a very accommodating lover from below.
Due to past experiences, he would never and will never allow himself to be tied up in bed. He would not like his partner to be tied up either. Other forms of play like sensory withholding or gagging are acceptable.
Hi! If you're okay with doing NSFW, could you write something specific with Alucard? After the horror show that was the twins he deserves to have some sex that is just unserious; giggly and silly and smelly and fun. Maybe with a reader, he can slowly learn that sex Can actually be all that
Indeed, after what happened with the twins, Alucard had all but given up on being close to someone again.
Not just intimacy but trust.
His experience in relationships has so far been people come into his life and either leave or betray him.
It would take him years to get over that kind of trauma, and a special kind of person to break through those walls.
Once trust is established it would slowly turn into something more than friends, to a genuine intimate relationship.
Physical intimacy would still be a challenge for him.
Alucard is inexperienced, and the only recent he had really had in a long time was a horror.
His partner would be patient though and start with touching.
Learning how to accept touch: holding hands, touching his arms, his chest, his back, his legs.
They never push him and always stop when things seem to get to be too much for him.
They would then move on to kissing.
Alucard likes kissing. Vampires have a very sensitive mouth, and overly sensitive sense of taste.
Kissing on their skin is a different flavor. A different sensation.
He also likes hearing the little noises they make when he presses his lips to a certain spot.
Alucard is embarrassed to admit that he makes them too when they kiss his neck.
Once Alucard is ready for actual sex, his partner would still need to be patient with him.
Let him set the pace. Find out what’s comfortable again.
It’s awkward and clumsy to find a good rhythm. One because it’s been a while for Alucard, and also because it’s their first time. The first time is always awkward.
It is nice though, Alucard realizes. Being close to someone.
More than just physically but emotionally as well.
Plus, it feels really good. He forgot how good sex feels.
He goes ridged when they slide down the bed to suck his cock. Nervous on what will happen next, but practically melts when their mouth his on him.
He is a quick study and provides the same treatment to them. Alucard will learn later that he likes this very much, and when they sit on his face.
The first time he is on top. He partner open and waiting for him as he awkwardly presses forward inside them.
His thrusts are staggered, but consistent.
He keeps a close eye on his partner. Watching their reactions, their moans, to adjust where he can.
It would take some time to learn the ins & out between them. What their favorite positions are. Kinks. Places they melt to be touched at. But for the first time it is nice.
Alucard is happy just to sleep next to his person. Finding this kind of intimacy new and something he desperately missed.
A reader who doesn't like to call Adrian as Alucard. His reaction on it. They are acquaintances.
He's a little surprised by it.
Everyone calls him Alucard, and has done so for such a long time that there are days where he forgets his real name.
In fact, when they start calling him Adrian he ignores them the first few times. Not because he is trying to be rude but it genuinely didn't click that they were calling to him.
They ask if he has a problem with them calling him Adrian and he tells them no. It is his name after all.
But his true name does come with mixed feelings, as the last person to call him that in earnest was his mother.
Perhaps the only other person in the world to love him, but that remains to be seen.
Headcanons for Adrian from Castlevania after season 2 receiving daily necessities like clothes, food and hygiene products from the Reader, who is a friend after a month since Trevor and Sypha left.
At first, Adrian doesn’t notice that it’s being left for him.
Just some random fruits, nuts, and other foraging items left loose on his steps. It could have very easily been an animal that left them there. And he had been drinking more.
It wasn’t until the clothes started showing up that he realized something was going on.
New shirts. A blanket. A hand knitted cardigan as the winter months were getting closer. But he didn’t know who they were from yet.
When the hygiene products start showing up Adrian gets a little insulted. He didn’t smell that bad.
He decides he is going to set a trap for whoever this ‘gift-giver’ is. Lay in wait for them and then spring into the act.
They have been bringing him things almost once a week, every week, so he should not have to wait long.
When they eventually show up, Adrian snuck up behind them with the intent of startling them and telling them to go away but realized quick that it was [Y/N].
He asked why they were bringing him things, as he was not a child in need of care, and [Y/N] made some quip about him perhaps not being a child but certainly in need of care. And he seemed lonely.
The comment wounded Adrian as he knew that it was true. In his depression he had not taken good care of himself. In the beginning sure but now….
He tells [Y/N] thank you for caring for him but it they want to bring him something just knock on the door and offer.
The next time they come they do that. And the next time. Then the next. Until eventually they stop knocking all together and just let themselves in. Then after that they just never leave one day.
Can I request the Castlevania boys reaction to their s/o wearing lingerie?
Alucard
Embarrassed but tries to act like he isn’t.
By this point in their relationship Alucard has seen them naked. Yet somehow this is more…scandalous.
He tries to go to sleep like normal but the vision of them is still in his mind. Urging him to touch.
Trevor
He is definitely a ‘that’s real pretty baby, now take it off’ kind of guy.
Lingerie is great. He appreciates it like any other man, although he thinks it’s a bit unnecessary.
Trevor also hates how complicated it is sometimes. All those finicky laces get on his nerves, so he eventually just rips it.
Hector
Taken aback but quick to correct and be flattered by their effort.
Hector knows this is for him. Something so thin and skimpy certainly doesn’t look comfortable, nor practical.
He would take great care to appreciate not only them but the outfit. Careful to remove it and have it saved for later.
Ritcher
Turns immediately red.
Especially with some of the French lingerie available, it leaves little to the imagine, or too much for fantasy.
Flustered, Ritcher would probably put his foot in his mouth about how impractical it is to sleep in or try to compliment them by saying they don’t need it because they are beautiful but instead saying “what’s the point in that” or something.
haiai! I want to request an alucard x reader where he happens to feel just.. safe with her? (We all know that he happened to be afraid of touch in other headcanons after what had happened, so maybe he needs someone he could feel safe with?)
Genuinely? When Alucard was with someone he trusted, finally trusted, he would be so stupid needy.
He has denied himself affection for so long.
Distancing himself from his mother as he was becoming a man, only to lose her. Then betrayed and wounded by his father in his madness of grief. And just betrayal after betrayal after that.
Alucard had convinced himself that it is better to just be alone. But when he lets them in he realizes how lonely he’s been.
Starved, really. And he’s desperate to not be that way again.
He would cling to his partner.
In a metaphorical sense during the day (close to them, always by their side) but then literally at night (wrapped around them with all his long limbs has to offer, holding them close so he’s sure they didn’t leave).
He tries not to be possessive, but his vampire streak won’t let him.
Alucard just wants them all to himself and to just be enough for them. Though he appreciates that that isn’t practical and gets very anxious if they are gone for too long.
What if they fell out of love with him in that time? What if they realize just how broken he is and want to leave? What if it’s like all the others?
When they return Alucard eventually calms down, but his cling rate is very high for the next few days. More than normal.
People are people and not possessions, but he just doesn’t want them to leave him.
