(OOC) SeducingVanHelsing!Mina
Another insane ficlet, this one for jiasachan. SeducingVanHelsing!Mina. This is short, odd, and not at all what I though I was going to write for this.
“It was always quite obvious how you felt.” Mina said, her voice quiet. “From the way you looked at me, the admiring tone in your voice when you spoke to me, the way you would always sit slightly closer to me then anyone but Jonathan did. She laughed bitterly. “If you think I didn’t notice, then you must think that I’m far more naïve then I ever was.”
The elderly Dutch professor seemed quite shocked by her words. “Madame Mina, now, really…” But she cut him off and continued speaking. “You couldn’t save Lucy, but you did manage to save me. Why, I wonder, is that? Why did you let her be taken by the Count and then decide that there was no other option than having her own fiancée drive a stake through her heart? Then, when the same thing happened to me, it was decided that we should all go to Transylvania because of course you didn’t want to have to drive a stake through my heart! All well and good, but did you refrain from making cruel comments about what had happened to me even the day after they had taken place? And don’t you think the way your eyes passed over me in that month hurt immeasurably, when I could hardly bear to have my husband kiss me?”
Van Helsing seemed quite wordless at all her accusations, and there was a long pause before Mina said, with a smile. “So I believe I shall give you what you want.” And she leaned in to kiss him. He never saw her take out the knife.
