Summary: It’s been seven years since Angelus killed Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Seven years after Angelus opened a portal to hell on Earth. Humans are food, slaves or on the run. There’s hope only in small band of resistance fighters. However, that’s a hope Xander Harris no longer has. It’s been six months since he was taken in a raid. At first Xander thought he was lucky the demons didn’t know who he was; but then that was before he became property to an Azora demon.
As always: Feedback makes my heart go pitter-patter.

*********************************************************************************
“Xander, will you sleep with me?” Spike asked.
“Wh…I thought..aren’t we..I mean, mas..” Xander began to babble in confusion only to be cut off with a soft kiss.
“No Master. No Pet. Just you and me,” Spike whispered when he finally broke the kiss to stare back into Xander’s eyes. “No demon rules. No human rules. I want..you, Xander. I want you..I want you to the core of me. I want to feel ya inside of me burnin’ me up with yer heat.”
For a moment Xander thought his heart stopped. It was as if Spike’s words had shut down all systems. Emergency sirens flared as everything ground to a standstill and all remaining power was diverted to central processing. Xander stared at Spike while his brain tried to decipher what the vampire had just said.
Then it was if everything had reset. Bells rang, lights blazed to life and systems were a go. All systems were more than a go; they were running in the red as understanding flared through him somehow making him ache not only with want and need but with something much deeper; something that wasn’t physical.
“Oh…OH!” Xander exhaled as he nodded nervously before covering Spike’s mouth with his own and kissing him with all of the tenderness and emotions he could not express.
*********************************************************************************
Xander wasn’t sure how they got undressed. He only knew that one moment he had his hands fisted in Spike’s hair dragging him closer while he devoured his lips. He’d been molding his body to the vampire and still it wasn’t close enough.
Then the next thing he knew they were all bare arms and legs entwined in a nest of sleeping bags. Mouths were dancing over skin. They were flames burning hot and cold moving sinuously over one another in a familiar but always a new dance.
“Ghods Spike!” Xander moaned as the vampire laved at the slight scars of his bite from the claiming ritual. Then as if in answer he wrapped his hand around Spike’s leaking cock and began stroking it.
“Xander!” Spike groaned into his human lover’s skin. He peppered tiny kisses up to Xander’s jaw line then seized his mouth in a devouring kiss.
Xander bucked up and pressed his hard length against Spike’s stomach letting his precum paint the vampire's skin. The vampire panted into Xander’s mouth as he broke the kiss. He gently took hold of Xander’s chin.
Blue eyes and brown met.
“I want you,” Spike said his voice smokey with need.
“I…” Xander licked his lips and Spike groaned. “I..don’t know. I mean. I only ever..the one…”
“Shh,” Spike said placing a finger gently to Xander’s lips silencing the babble. “That’s not the question, luv. The mechanics are simple. The question is do you want to?”
Xander’s breath caught in his chest.
Want blondie? Xander thought. I’m so past want I’m not sure we’re even in the same galaxy.
“I don’t want to hurt you. Mess it up,” Xander somehow ground out around Spike’s finger and past the bubble of air still being held hostage in his chest.
“Ya won’t, luv,” Spike said smiling down at Xander. “You and me we’re like bangers and mash. We go together.”
“I think I prefer peanut butter and jelly,” Xander grinned the hostage situation easing up.
“Blood and biscuits?”
“Ew!” Xander laughed his breath finally free.
“So?” Spike asked before kissing the tip of Xander’s nose.
“Yeah, I do,” Xander whispered as his cock twitched in answer under Spike. He was rewarded with a smile he could of sworn lit the small room brighter than the lanterns.
Then Spike sat and moved to the side.
“Hey..” Xander called pushing himself up onto his elbows.
“Just getting the slick,” Spike said rummaging through one of their duffel bags before scrambling back over to slide next to his love. He propped himself up next to Xander on his elbow. Then he lit the room again with another smile. “So...how do you want me?”
“Huh?” Xander asked his face turning a lovely garnet color.
“Hands and knees? Flat on my back?” Spike asked as he squirted a handful of lube into his hand and then began to ease it around Xander’s shaft.
“C..cold!” Xander stuttered wilting a bit.
“Feels hot ta me, luv,” Spike teased while he slicked Xander’s hot length in his hand.
“That was evil!” Xander accused.
“Big bad,” Spike said as he continued to pump Xander while at the same time stealing a kiss. He then leaned in closer and whispered into his ear, “So thought about it? How do ya want me? Face down with my cheeks spread wide for ya or spread out under you offerin’ myself up like a feast?”
“Oh fuck!” Xander groaned fully erect again. “You keep that up I won’t last to get to the main event and Spike…I really want to make it to the main event.”
Spike laughed and leaned back a little as his hand slowed its pace. He studied Xander as he waited for his love’s answer.
Xander stared back. He drank in the sight of Spike so open and offering him something he’d not even thought would ever be his to even fantasize about. The vampire was a sculpted creature of beauty whom Xander had grown to relish. He could never get enough of his touch or even just the sight of him.
“I want...I want to see you,” Xander said in a breathy voice.
“On my back then,” Spike said as he started to lay down.
Xander reached out and touched his shoulder.
“No,” he said softly. “I..want…”
“On top then?” Spike asked surprised but none the less delighted.
“I want to see and touch you and...is that ok?”
“It’s perfect, luv,” Spike said as squirted another handful of gel into his hand. Then he sat up and then gracefully slid a leg across Xander to straddle him. Xander lay back and gasped as he felt Spike’s cheeks rested just above that part of him that was slick and too ready for the vampire.
Spike leaned forward resting one hand beside Xander’s head. Xander groaned at the loss of contact.
“Shh. Just need a moment ta get ready,” Spike purred as he snaked his other hand full of lube back behind him.
“You..should...I mean...can I..?” Xander began again to babble unsure of what to do.
“You can kiss me..touch me,” Spike answered as he worked to ready himself growing harder just thinking of Xander’s heat inside of him.
Xander sat up to meet Spike and nibbled at his lips while running a hand down the smooth chiseled chest he woke up pillowed on top of every morning. Spike groaned swelling under Xander’s touch and the anticipation of what was to come.
Xander’s kisses deepened as his hand found their ultimate target. He smiled against Spike’s lips happy to know the vampire wanted this as much as he did.
“Yeah..ok...that’ll have ta do,” Spike said suddenly bracing himself above Xander with both hands.
“Wait? Are you sure?” Xander asked concerned the vampire hadn’t taken enough time.
“Luv, never been more sure of anything in my undead life,” Spike said before stealing one more kiss across Xander’s nose. Then he sat back on his haunches to hover over Xander before taking him in hand.
“Lean back,” he gently ordered as he lined up Xander to the perfect spot between his own cheeks.
Xander nodded and lay back. Hungrily he watched the vampire as slowly he began to lower himself down on to Xander. He watched as just the tip of his penis began to slide into Spike and he moaned as he felt it begin to press up against the vampire’s slick ring. Then with a slow pressure he watched as Spike breached himself and began to ease Xander inside.
“Unggh! Ghods!” Xander cried as Spike’s cool and tight ring slid around pulling him into tight sheath. He fisted his hands into the sleeping bags beneath him and fought not to thrust up deeper into Spike.
“Xander,” Spike whispered as if in prayer as he sank deeper on his love thick cock. “Xan...I..”
Xander was overwhelmed as Spike’s body took him in deeper. It was all at once too much and not enough. He wanted to close his eyes in ecstasy but he couldn’t stop watching the vampire who eyes were alternately flashing gold and blue. He panted in need trying to find the words while noting Spike was as speechless as he was.
Spike sank slower and more of Xander was pushing inside into those cool tight depths and it wasn’t enough. He reached out and touched Spike brushing his fingers across the tip of his leaking cock.
“XANDER!” Spike moaned and bucked suddenly seating himself completely.
“SPIKE!” Xander answered unable to stop himself from thrusting up into the vampire. “OH GHODS...SPIKE!”
“Do that again, luv,” Spike begged as he ground his hips down on to Xander.
Xander mewled and bucked thrusting himself deep into Spike.
“Yes! That’s it!” Spike urged as he began to set a rhythm and began to slowly ride Xander.
“I ...ca...Spike,” Xander moaned thrusting back in answer to the vampire. He licked his suddenly dry lips and reached to fully wrap his hand around Spike’s cock.
“Oh...sweet…! LUV!” Spike cried feeling himself at once full of Xander’s heat and enveloped by it at the same time.
Spike had wanted to make this last but it was too much; too good. His rhythm sped up and true to his nature Xander met him; followed him. The man under him trembled and became slick with sweat. He thrust his heat deeper and seemed to instinctively find that spot just inside Spike which lit him up from inside all the while he somehow had the presence of mind to continue milking him.
Demon and soul warred for control and he felt his visage slipping back and forth. The need to plunge his teeth into Xander began to build as great as his need to release. He tried. He tried with all of his years of experience to hold off just a little longer. He tried to hold of just enough so that he could somehow take note of each moan, each gasp, each sliding thrust and touch in perfect detail.
He watched Xander watching him neither of them wanting to miss this moment.
“Spike...I can’t...I’m…” Xander gasped pounding up into him his need rolling through him like demon of his own.
“Whenever yer ready, luv,” Spike somehow managed to say thrusting down to meet Xander.
“SPIIIKKKE!” Xander yelled out in his perfect beautiful voice and suddenly heat washed through the vampire as he felt his love come undone beneath him.
“Spike...Spike.. Spike…” Xander cried out in litany as his climaxed raced through him too soon. It was too much and too perfect. He arced up into the vampire spurting all that he had inside of him. Yet it wasn’t enough. He needed more. Wanted more. Demanded more!
“Spike..please,” Xander panted as he began to stroke Spike in earnest trying to bring about the vampire’s release even as his was beginning to fade. “Please..not alone.”
“Never!” Spike cried his soul and demon weeping as he began to shake and the lightening of his own pleasure began zinging through him. He bucked and coated Xander’s stomach with his own powerful release.
Together they rode out the aftershocks which coursed through them. Then slowly Spike eased himself free of Xander. Once again his demon and soul cried out. He lay down next to Xander and pulled him close drinking in the sight and the smell of his human; his love.
“Spike…” Xander said after he could find his breath again. He turned in his vampire’s arms to look into his eyes. “..that was… Thank you.”
“Thank you, luv,” Spike purred nuzzling Xander.
“Kiss me?” Xander asked.
In answer, Spike rolled Xander under him and gently laid claim to his mouth mapping it as if it was the first time. He tasted and teased until Xander was lost again and could only find himself by threading his fingers through Spike’s hair and pulling him closer.
When they parted Spike’s eyes were rimmed with gold. Xander brushed his fingers across Spike’s forehead and underneath them the vampire’s face began to shift.
“Ghods you’re beautiful,” Xander whispered.
In answer, Spike simply leaned his forehead down to rest on Xander’s. Silence fell between them as their ardor cooled and the moment of perfect tenderness cocooned them. Xander knew there was one more thing needed and somehow he knew Spike wasn’t going to ask it of him; not tonight.
“Spike,” he whispered gently tugging the vampire’s face up away to look at him. Spike was still golden eyes and vampire ridges.
“Please, Spike,” Xander said softly as he turned his head and offered his neck.
The bite was swift and the pain fleeting. Still, Xander gasped as the erotic pull as Spike drank deep. His hands wrapped around the vampire’s shoulders as the pull became impossibly stronger. He offered more of himself even though some part of his brain thought there should be a caution flag waving.
Spike? Xander tried to think to puzzle out why the vampire needed so much from him. What…?
Spike continued to drink down Xander’s lifeblood. The demon trusted his soul to keep him in check but it needed this. It needed this cinnamon cedar warm essence that was Xander’s life. He needed more of his warmth and vitality inside of him and he needed to remember every detail in perfect clarity.
Mine! the demon raged wanting it all and delighting in the perfect trust Xander placed in him.
Xander’s felt his limbs grow heavy. He wanted to say something to Spike; warn him but the world was starting to spin and the room grow darker.
Enough now, the soul warned noting the thudding of Xander’s heart starting to slow. We agreed. No more than is necessary.
Changed my mind! the demon growled even as Spike began to ease his fangs out of Xander’s neck and lick at the wound.
Xander tried to force his eyes to stay open. He tried to focus on Spike. He felt the vampire give a final lick and then brush a hand across his sweat matted forehead.
“Sleep, luv,” Spike whispered. “When ya wake up you’ll be as right as rain.”
Xander blinked and then fell away into a blissful deep sleep. Spike held him and watched him savoring the sound of each breath and steady beat of his heart until he knew that it hadn’t been moments but hours. Then he took a deep unneeded breath. He leaned close and whispered something against the white gold collar gleaming against Xander’s neck. There was a click as it opened and fell away on to the sleeping bags.
“I give ya my permission ta go as far away from me as you will and for as long as ya desire,” Spike whispered as he ghosted a kiss behind Xander’s ear.
With his vision growing blurry he placed a final kiss on the tip of Xander’s nose before he gently let Xander go.
