Chapter 14 – Leather
Buffy knew
Spike was faking. She leaned over his prostrate form and moved the ice bag so
she could see his eyes. He groaned, rubbed his forehead and moved it back.
“It still
hurts, doesn’t it, baby?” Buffy cooed, her fingers drifting down his chest.
“I’m so proud of you though. You’re my hero.” She kissed him on the cheek while
her hand moved to cup him. “I think you deserve a special reward for what you
did.”
Spike
nodded. “Oww, shouldn’t have done that,” he muttered. His eyes opened and Buffy
fluttered her eyelashes at him. “Would you lamb? I think it’d make me feel a
whole lot better.”
“Are you
sure it won’t hurt you more?” Buffy asked, undoing his belt buckle. “I don’t
want to do anything to set the chip off again.”
“It won’t,”
Spike promised, his hand resting on her shoulder.
Buffy
slowly undid his zipper and straddled his thighs. “I just hope that my wittle
Spikey is feeling better by tonight so you can go to
“Pet,”
Spike whined. “Please…come on. I was a hero today. You said so.”
“Yes, yes,
I did,” Buffy whispered, stroking his chest. “And I really should give you
whatever you want.” She waited until he relaxed with a grin teasing the corner
of his mouth. Take this faker. And
she twisted his nipple.
“Bloody
hell, woman,” Spike yelled, sitting up and rubbing his offended body part.
“What did you do that for?”
Buffy
giggled and scooted away from him. “You were faking to get sympathy and a blow
job.” She wagged her finger back and forth. “That wasn’t nice.”
He wrapped
his arm around her leg and pulled so she fell onto her back. Buffy kept
giggling even as Spike switched to vampire guise and pretended to attack her.
He deserved the praise he’d been hustling for; after all he’d proven that
“Hello,”
Angel said, appearing at the end of the bed. He dropped his suitcase and a
shopping bag as Buffy and Spike stopped to look up at him. “Is anyone going to
say hi to me?”
“Angel’s
home,” Spike said, grabbing Angel’s arm and pulled him onto the bed.
Their mate
was covered in kisses as they welcomed him home. The Power’s That Be had given
them a break while Joyce had undergone her surgery. But it seemed as soon as they’d
receive the good news that Buffy’s mother was in the clear,
Angel cuddled
Buffy next to him, kissing her but Spike pulled him away for his own kisses.
Buffy watched as Spike was rolled on top of their mate. Their kisses getting
deeper and more passionate, laced with snarls as Angel vamped out to match the
blondes still demon guise. It was apparent they had a need only for each other
so she slipped out of the room and headed upstairs. It stung that she wasn’t
included in the reunion but she was also aware of the increasing need of the
vampires for violence in their sexual escapades.
Neither of
them had ever invited her to join in their games. Even in the times when the
sex between her mates and her hadn’t been gentle, it could still be called
making love. The growls and sometimes screams that came from behind their
closed door made her wonder what caused them. She had found a trunk with their
toys in Angel’s closet and shivered at the thought of the pain they might
cause.
Deciding
not to let it bother her, she continued to her bathroom. She settled into a
bath with her favorite scent letting the hot water ease away her tension. Tonight
she and her mates were going to
Buffy had
just picked up her razor when Angel stepped into the bathroom. He smiled as he
slipped into the water with her. He held his hand out to her and she went to
put the razor down but he took it from her.
“Let me,”
Angel said, positioning her foot on his shoulder. He proceeded to shave her
legs in careful strokes. “You’re so beautiful, Buffy, you know that don’t you?”
“Thank
you,” Buffy said, unsure of what he wanted from her.
His hand
drifted over her leg to make sure it was smooth before his eyes met hers. “I
know so.”
“Hey,”
Spike said, stepping into the room carrying bottles of beer. “Brought one for
everyone.” He handed one to Angel and stepped into the tub indicating Buffy to
scoot forward so he could settle behind her.
Buffy
accepted a bottle with a small thanks and her eyes dropped to the bubbles that
still floated as Angel became absorbed in his task again. When Spike had
entered, she’d seen the fresh scratches and bruises marring Spike’s body. She
wondered how there could be pleasure from something that hurt. The biting she
understood but the other was mystifying to her. Anya and Xander played games but
nothing that left marks like Angel did. Spike had said it was the need in
vampires for violence but how could you do something like that in love?
Spike
wrapped his arm around her, pulling her back against him. She let her head fall
back on his shoulder so that he could nuzzle her neck while one hand fondled a
breast. It was a wave of sensuality to have him touching her and Angel shaving
her legs. Their attention was pulling her into a haze of need. Her arm curled
around behind Spike’s neck pulling him closer to her throat. He complied by
nipping and sucking along her flesh to her shoulder. She opened her eyes when
her leg was returned to the water.
Angel was
staring at them with hunger in his eyes.
“Let me
watch,” Angel whispered, leaning back with his arms along the sides.
Buffy was
confused by his request but let Spike move her to her knees as he slid further
down. She went to turn around but he brought her down with her still facing
Angel. She swallowed as Spike was enveloped inside her and her eyes fluttered
closed.
“Keep your
eyes on me,” Angel said, his foot caressing her leg. “I want to see the passion
in your eyes.”
Her hands
clung to the sides of the tub to give her leverage as she began to move on
Spike. They had never made love in this position before and she let his hands
guide her. Angel’s gaze continued to rake over her as she moved in the water
making her uncomfortable. She was used to there being someone that watched when
she made love to the other but this felt more like a performance. Her eyes
locked with Angel’s as she rode Spike, clenching and unclenching her muscles to
bring him to his climax faster. It was relief when she felt him shudder behind
her and she dropped her head as she faked her own orgasm.
Spike
cradled her against him as he stroked her back. When she dared to look over at
Angel, she realized he knew that she hadn’t cum. His eyes narrowed for a moment
but then he relaxed again. Shame flooded her and she tried to climb from the
tub but Spike slid his arm around her waist.
“Don’t
leave, Luv, let’s just relax for a few,” Spike whispered, his hand slipped
between her legs. “And we still have more to shave, don’t we?”
Buffy tried
to calm down but trepidation was making it almost impossible. Every time she
glanced at Angel he was staring at her making her guilt even more. She tried to
rationalize her deceit but couldn’t find any reason except for the unease she
felt around Angel. When he left for
~~~~~~~~~
Buffy was a
beautiful woman.
Angel stood
behind her as she preened in front of the mirror wearing the gift he’d brought
her from
He ran his
fingers along her thighs. “You’re exquisite. It makes me feel good to buy
things that only enhance your beauty.” His hands cupped her bottom before
sliding over hips. “Walking into a room with you on my arm makes me feel like
the luckiest man in the world.” He wrapped his arms around her waist pulling
her back against him. “I know that it’s not your usual style but I saw it and
thought of you.” He kissed her shoulder. “If you’re not comfortable, don’t feel
like you have to wear it.”
Spike’s
eyes were boring a hole into his back in disapproval over his manipulations. Angel
glanced over his shoulder at his mate and smiled before returning to watch
Buffy as the doubt in her eyes faded to acceptance. Seduction wasn’t hard when you knew your
subject. Buffy was craving his love and approval and all he had to do was exploit
that need to get her to acquiesce to his desires. The outfit gave an edge to
her looks that hinted at the darkness hidden in her nature. He had seen it when
Buffy had been hanging out with Faith. And Angelus wanted a mate that his equal
and not a child that needed to be pampered.
It was a
compromise. It was hard to deal with the urges that Angelus taunted him with
and it took everything his soul had to keep from giving in. That was one of the
reason’s he’d needed to be with Spike when he came home. The other vampire not
only understood his needs but echoed them as well. Spike was bound by his chip
and his love for his mates while Angel was bound by his soul but the aggression
never disappeared; it constantly simmered below the surface. In each other’s
arms they found an outlet that was only a small fix to a larger problem but as
long as they had that, it made the dealing a little easier.
Hurting
Buffy was the last thing Angel wanted. It was a tight line between introducing
her to the dark side and letting her go too far over the edge. He knew that
she’d been almost lost when Faith had tempted her with a flagrant disregard for
the rules that Buffy lived by. He just wanted to broaden her horizons not break
the fence down completely. It was something that would satisfy his Angelus side
and not take away from what Angel needed from the girl.
Angel
stepped back as Buffy turned around.
“I’ll wear
it,” she said, smiling up at him. “Thank you.”
It was
victory and Angel smiled before he pulled her to him for a kiss that left them
both yearning for later.
~~~~~~~~
You always make me smile
when I'm feeling down
You give me such a vibe, I is totally bonafide, mmm
It's not the way you walk, and it ain't the way you talk
It ain't the job you got, that keeps me satisfied
His demon
was in a state of rapture. The music took Spike over as he circled his prey.
Her arousal was the sweetest scent as it teased at him. He knew it was an elixir
of the gods that he’d been fortunate to have tasted as it flowed from her
fountain. Buffy was ethereal as she moved to the beat; a mischievous sprite
leading him to his downfall. He wouldn’t fight her knowing that there would be
only pleasure at her hands even when she destroyed all that he’d once been.
Your love it feels so
good, and that’s what takes me high
Higher than I've been before and your love, it keeps me alive
Thought I should let you know, that your touch it means so much
The
surprise was Angel as he slipped behind Spike with his arms encompassing them
both and it took only a beat before they moved as one. So, many times had they
moved like this but never as people watched. It was intoxicating to be
liberated by their mate as Angel was let the world know they belonged to him. Spike’s
demon rejoiced at the claim of his mates. There were a few looks that were cast
their way but they didn’t care. Buffy slipped from the front to move between
and Spike turned around so he could mold himself to her back. His and Angel’s
hand interlaced over her hips cherishing the tiny woman that loved them.
Oh won't you understand
how I feel yeah deep inside
Uh huh, you made feel all I need to feel
Yes, in my heart
Spike
looked up into Angel’s eyes and saw only love to give the final touch to make
their world right again. The family was celebrating together and his mates were
finding the magic they’d thought was lost between them. Angel’s fingers
caressed Buffy’s face and she could only stare at him in adoration. His Sire
bent to kiss her and Spike wrapped his arms around them both as their ardor
escalated. They’d never make it home and when Angel backed up taking Buffy by
the hand neither shied from his invitation. Good-byes were quickly given to the
others as they made their exit.
Angel slid
into the passenger side of his car putting Buffy in the middle while Spike
started the car. By the time they pulled
out of the parking lot her pants were on the floor and the body suit was around
her waist. When they turned the first corner Angel was inside of her. Spike was
happy they hadn’t slipped into the back so he could be a part of their reunion.
His fingers slid through her hair as it flowed over his lap. He took the car
out to the coastal highway so they could take their time.
“I love
you, Buffy,” Angel whispered, holding her tight against him. “You’re my everything
and I can’t live without you beside me.” His hand curled over Spike’s knee,
stroking it as he kissed Buffy. “I will never let you go. Say you’ll always be
mine.”
And a chill
ran down Spike’s spine as Buffy promised everything she was to their mate.
