[Because there always are. Every bathroom is stocked. Every bed has sheets on it. It is a matter of hospitality, but also a matter of pride for the dhampir. Doing right, making sure the house can welcome guests. It's what his mother would want, and it's easier, running the place with that thought.
Alucard's not sure how long Hector will be in the bath. Doesn't matter, and perhaps it will be a while. He may want to luxuriate in having running water again. All Alucard knows is that half an hour later, he makes his own way up to the third east wing, and settles in that side room.
It's small. Just a fireplace and a sofa, two windows to let in the light. He settles at one end of the sofa, then closes his eyes. Just a little. Just to rest them.]
