There's an immediate change over both Alucard and Ellis. The wolf is in front of the dhampir now, her dhampir, and her fur is on end. Teeth on display. She actually looks like a wolf instead of the stupid cuddly dog-wolf thing she is 99.9% of the time. There's a low growl at the egg, like it's going to attack at any moment.

Alucard's face goes from a moment of sheer bugfuck terror to a low but very present anger. Not at her. Just at the egg. At what will come out of that egg in time. The world doesn't need more dragons. If Alucard is to be brutal, he also doubts that the dhampir in front of him can remotely care for one either.

"You need to destroy it," he says, and it's in the tone of someone who's used to being listened to when he makes a recommendation with too much urgency in his voice. "Those things cannot be."
