Title: Three Times a Sire Author: Janet Lynn (janet324@comcast.net) Rating: NC-17 Pairing: S/A Previous parts at: http://www.geocities.com/stricken_girl/FortheFaithfulEntrance.htm Thoughts indicated by <> This dedicated to Angela, who begged and nagged repeatedly for a new chapter. I hope you like, Sweetie. She was begging for some Angelus, so here you go. Chapter Four Spike woke slowly. He smiled lightly when he remembered the events from the night before. Angel had taken him, claimed him with sex and blood. Sure they'd had sex plenty of times in the past two weeks and they had done the whole 'vampire blood play' thing, but this was different. This was possession and claiming. And Spike thought it was wonderful. He looked down when he realized that he and his sire had switched positions during the night again. It made him smile when it dawned on him that Angel was a cuddler. They had always gone to sleep with Angel on his back and Spike safely tucked in his arms, curled around the larger vampire. Even with Angelus, it had always been that way. But with Angel, the brunette always worked himself so that he was curled around Spike who was currently lying on his back with his sire's head pillowed on his chest. He loved that about Angel. Angelus always slept like a rock and never moved in his sleep. If Spike tried to make a move during the night, Angelus' grip only became stronger to keep the smaller vampire at his side. Spike smiled before lifting his head to kiss the sable locks tucked tightly under his chin. "What time is it?" Angel asked sleepily, mumbling into the sleep warmed chest below him. He turned his head slightly to kiss the hard pectoral under his cheek. The blonde vampire turned his head to look at the clock as he began to stroke his fingers through the ungelled hair. "Time for all good CEO's to get ready for work" Spike said after he settled back down into the bed. "Don't wanna" Angel pouted as he tried to snuggle deeper into the blonde's chest. Spike chuckled lightly before smacking the larger man harshly on an exposed butt cheek. "Come on, luv" he chuckled at the pouting face looking up at him. "Don't want Percy walking in on us again, do ya'?" "No" the dark vampire grumbled as he tried to snuggle back into the sleep warmed body. Spike was eventually able to extract himself from beneath the grumpy vampire and started to pick up the clothes they discarded the night before. "Getting lazy in your old age" the blonde complained as he began to put the clothing in the laundry bags. Angelus was such a neat freak he wouldn't let the young fledgling go to sleep until his room was in order. It didn't matter whether he had fucked him all night long or not, he was not allowed his rest unless his sire was satisfied with the state of his room. Spike laughed to himself thinking about the difference of this man with a soul when he reached into the pockets of Angel's pants and found something unusual. He pulled out the small blue stone and looked at it for a minute. "What's this, luv?" he asked the dozing vampire. Angel rolled over to see what Spike was talking about. When he saw the stone in the blonde's hand, he froze. He didn't want to lie to Spike, but he didn't really know what to say. "It's a worry stone" he finally admitted. "Oh" the blonde said, looking at the stone in his hand. "Where'd you get it?" "A friend" Angel said cryptically. He reached for the stone, but Spike pulled his hand away before he could touch it. "What's it for?" "You're supposed to rub it and the stone absorbs all your worries" he answered. Spike slowly began to rub his fingers over the smooth surface of the stone. He felt the coolness seep into his flesh and closed his eyes, feeling the pull of the stone. Eventually he opened his eyes and stared at the dark vampire. "Must be broke, pet" Spike said with a smirk. "Didn't feel a thing." As he laughed at the look on his sire's face, Spike tossed the blue stone to Angel and waltzed naked into the bathroom. Angel looked down at the object in his hand. He felt oddly relieved that Spike didn't press him about where it came from. For some reason, he didn't really want to tell Spike the truth. He heard the water turn on in the shower and smiled. He was looking forward to soaking in the hot water with the sexy blonde. He lay back against the pillows for just a moment as he slowly rolled the stone between his fingers, gasping lightly at the pull he felt, lulling him into a light sleep. ******** Angelus opened his eyes with a start and smiled. he thought. He looked around for his childe and smirked when he heard the water in the shower. He stood quickly, making sure he had the stone held securely in his hand. Spike grinned when he felt the small gust of cool air against his wet skin. When he felt the cool chest pressed up against his overly warm skin, he turned his head to look over his shoulder at the beautiful face behind him. "Finally decided to get your fat arse out of bed and join the land of the living, eh Peaches?" Spike asked, chuckling lightly. He was surprised when he found his back pressed against the cool tile of the shower wall with an extremely powerful hand wrapped around his throat. "I'm not fat" the dark vampire growled into the shocked face before leaning in to whisper in the blonde's ear. "I think you need to remember your place, boy." Spike gasped at the odd display of dominance. They liked to play into their former roles every once in a while, but Angel had made it clear that first night they were together that he considered them equals, no longer needing the pretense of dominance and submission. He wondered for a moment what had gotten into his lover to cause him to act so strange, but the thought was quickly forced from his head when the dark vampire began to rub his erection against the blonde's matching hardness. "Will" Angelus purred in the shorter man's ear. "I understand that you are a master in your own right now, but you still need to show your sire the proper respect. I don't think you have been doing that. Do you need a reminder of why I demand this?" Spike looked up at the smirk gracing Angel's face. For a minute, he almost thought he really was looking into the face of his unsouled sire. he thought. Angelus was getting impatient with his childe. When Spike didn't answer immediately, he squeezed the pale throat even harder and asked harshly, "Do you?" Fear began to flood into Spike's eyes. Playing was all fine and good, as far as he was concerned, but this was beginning to worry him. Angelus noticed the fear and realized that he had gone too far. He had to keep up the façade of being Angel until he could prove to Spike that he was the one the blonde truly wanted. He refused to believe that his childe would settle for any one but his true sire. The dark vampire softened his eyes and smiled lightly at the blonde. "Don't you miss it?" he whispered silkily in his ear. "All those nights spent feeding and fucking? Being exactly what we were made to be? Those nights when it was just you and me?" Spike gasped at the seductive words. He had missed those days. Back then his only concern was to please his sire. Angelus always took care of his every need, whether it was clothing, food or sex. Back then, there was no guilt, no all encompassing destiny, no pain but what his sire would give him. Part of him wanted to go back to that, to give up all the guilt and pain. Another part of him loved his relationship with Angel, no matter how twisted it might be. Spike suddenly came to a decision. He lowered his eyes and whispered, "Angel." Angelus practically seethed with rage. He was supposed to submit to his sire, not the fucking soul. But Angelus knew his childe. Spike would break eventually and he would realize that Angelus is the one he needed. "Want me?" he whispered silkily in the blonde's ear. "Yes" Spike answered huskily. "Need me?" "Gods, yes" he gasped. Angelus practically vibrated with excitement at his boy's admission and quickly picked up a bottle of overly expensive conditioner Angel used. After coating his fingers with the slick substance, he reached around the smooth buttocks and gently rubbed his fingers over the sensitive pucker. Spike moaned at the feeling of the fingertip grazing over his tender hole. It turned into a surprised gasp when the finger plunged in knuckle deep. Angelus hastily prepared the blonde with the hair product, occasionally lightly brushing over the boy's prostate. Once he was satisfied that Spike was ready, he whispered in the smaller man's ear, "Are you ready for me, little one?" "Yes. Please. Now." Spike gasped between unnecessary breaths. Angelus quickly grabbed the smaller man by his buttocks and lifted him easily, spreading the cheeks. Spike immediately wrapped his legs around the strong waist, squeezing tightly to keep from slipping on the wet slicked skin. As the dark vampire palmed the round globes, the small stone in his hand tumbled softly to the floor of the shower. Attaching his lips to the still ragged bite mark, Angelus thrust up as he pulled the blonde down onto his aching hardness. The dark vampire set a harsh pace, pounding relentlessly into the blonde in his arms. He began to breathe unconsciously and brought his face up from the crook in his boy's neck to look him in the eyes. "Who do you belong to?" he asked. His voice carried an intensity that made Spike shiver and a tenderness that made his soul melt. Spike gasped as the head of the hard cock brushed against his sensitive nub. He met the dark vampire's gaze and admitted, "You. I belong to you." Satisfied with the answer, Angelus reached between their writing bodies and grasped his childe's weeping erection and began to stroke it in counterpoint to his punishing thrusts. Spike moaned and arched his neck, exposing the claim mark for his sire. Angelus watched the wanton display and at the first clenching spasm of his orgasm, he lunged forward and sunk his fangs into the bite mark left by his souled counterpart. He bit hard and deep, trying to obliterate the claim left by Angel the night before. Spike cried out at the immense pain that shot through his body when the fangs penetrated his skin and sank deeper than they ever had before. It felt as though the dark vampire was trying to bite him all the way down to his spinal column. But the mixture of extreme pain and wonderful pleasure pushed the blonde over the edge and he howled out his release like an animal in heat. Once they had both come down from their post orgasmic highs, Spike chuckled at the taller man. "Dropped your stone" he snorted, pointing to the blue rock lying at their feet. Angelus looked down at the stone in a panic. He suddenly realized that he had lost the stone and he was still in control. The thought made him smile. Spike reached down and picked up the stone and stepped out of the shower, grabbing a large towel on the way out. He pulled Angelus out by the hand and began to softly dry him off. Once he was finished, he quickly ran the towel over himself. The blonde pulled the taller man out of the bathroom and into the bedroom. Just as they reached the bed, Angelus began to feel dizzy. With a sickening jolt, he realized he was being pulled back inside his bodily prison. "You alright, luv?" Spike asked when he saw his sire waver. He caught the man before he fell and directed him over to the bed. *********** Angel opened his eyes and was surprised to see the concerned face of his lover looking down at him. He was about to ask Spike what was the matter, he had just taken a small nap until he realized his hair was wet and so was Spike's. "Angel" he heard the concerned voice ask softly. "Are you alright?" Angel tried to control his panic and nodded his head slowly. "Yeah, Spike" he answered slowly. "I'm fine. I think I need to get ready to go to the office." "Are you sure that's wise?" Spike asked. Even as he said it, he wanted to kick himself for sounding so much like that wimp William. But something was wrong with his lover and he felt justified in feeling concerned. "Maybe you should call off for the day?" Angel smiled at the tenderness in his childe's voice. He reached up and stroked the pale cheek before him. He cupped the sharp cheekbone before slowly tracing the soft lips with his thumb. He pulled the boy down to kiss him lovingly before saying, "I wish I could, Will, but there is so much to get done today." When he saw the disappointed look on the boy's face, he added, "Come down with me today. I could use your help." Spike smiled at the suggestion. He always loved it when Angel asked for his help. "Sure thing, pet" he said, jumping off the bed and rummaging through his part of the closet, looking for something suitable to wear. Angel tried to quell the rising panic that gripped his heart. Something was very wrong. He never blacked out like this before. He wasn't sure what was happening, but he knew that he needed to find out and fast before something really bad happened. Inside his cage, Angelus began to purr. The soul was scared. Good. And well it should be. Soon he would be in charge and the soul would be gone forever. Very soon. Tbc...
