Chapter 1
 
 

The soft music played in the background. She looked around and saw the beautiful swimming pool. She looked up to see the stars through the skylight. She smiled when she saw dozens of floating candles in the water. She then looked to the left of the indoor pool and saw the hot tub. It had white roses all around it. "It's amazing." She said. She saw him coming out of the shadows.
 

"What is all this for Angel?"
 

"Willow, it is for you. It is to you that I owe my existence. I would be in hell if it were not for you."
 

"It is the most beautiful thing Angel."
 

"No, Willow, you are the most beautiful thing." He said and kissed her hard. Willow found herself in Angel's arms, his kiss was the most passionate she had ever experienced. She felt her arousal from Angel's kiss. He gently broke the kiss and Willow whimpered. He then began to kiss her neck. Willow moaned as his cool tongue traced a path up and down her neck. She found her hands quickly traveling over him. She then felt his hand on her hip, pressing her into him. He smiled as she moaned. "Angel, mmm." Angel then removed her clothes quickly.
 

"Undress me, Willow." Angel moaned huskily. Willow did as she was told, taking her time, savoring the task of undressing Angel. She paused when she got to his boxers. She ran her hands over the black silk. Angel growled low for her. She then slipped her small hand into the boxers. She smiled slyly as she felt his length and thickness. She then got down on her knees and removed the boxers from Angel. She then ran her tongue all over the length. Angel growled low when she put head into her mouth. Willow moaned at his growl. "Feels so nice Willow..." He then placed his hand on the back of her head. He played with her hair as she worked his length.
 

Angel then cupped her chin, and used his free had to bring Willow's mouth to his. Willow groaned as Angel had aggressively kissed her. She felt his cool fingertips, running up and down her spine. It was driving her crazy. She then felt him press her into him, feeling his hardness. She felt the kiss. He spun her quickly so ‚she could see the pool and then jumped into the pool. Willow had shot up in bed, covered in sweat. She could not believe the dream. She looked over at the other bed and saw Buffy sleeping. Willow could not believe the intensity of the dream. She also was surprised that Angel had been in the dream. She then could swear she heard someone say I want you. She looked at Buffy, who was still deep in sleep. Willow had lie back down and eventually found sleep that night.

Chapter 2
 

Angel had finally fallen asleep. He saw her in a green china doll dress, skintight and with a very high slit on both sides. He swore he could smell her perfume. He smiled as Willow walked over to him. He loved how the emerald green complimented her skin. He looked up at her and smiled. She then straddled his lap and kissed him deep. He felt her fingernails running in his hair. He could feel her breath on his neck. He was kissing her wrist, then starting a trail up her arm. When he got to her shoulder, he stopped. Willow then began to kiss his neck. He purred when Willow adjusted her position on his lap. He rubbed his hardness against her. He remembered unbuttoning the dress.
 

He smiled when he saw her firm nipples. He took them into his hands and gently began to run his thumbs over them. "Angel" Willow moaned. He then told her to stand up. She did as she was told. Angel slid the dress of her, leaving her standing naked in front of him. Angel then stood up and kissed Willow hard. Willow moaned and leaned into him. Willow ran her fingernail down Angel's back. He growled and pressed her into the marble wall. He watched as she screamed when her skin came in contact with the cool marble. He then kissed her hard. He quickly unzipped his pants and found Willow to be very wet. He slid inside her in one stroke.
 

They both moaned as the connection was made. He took his time pleasuring her. He slowly changed position. They were on the floor now. Angel loved how Willow squirmed underneath him. He also enjoyed how she raked his back with her fingernails. Soon the pace had become frantic. He could feel her impending climax. "Oh Angel" Willow moaned. She then turned her neck, "Please" She said. Angel felt his face shift and the kissed her neck. He bit her lightly; he felt her climax as he broke her skin. He also felt it in her blood.
 

Angel jumped up in bed. He hadn't had an erotic dream in a long time. He licked his lips and almost tasted human blood on them. He found himself so hard. When he closed his eyes, he saw only Willow. He then began to stroke himself. He took his time enjoying the sensations. He had always been into the sensual aspect of things. When his climax came, he called out Willow's name.
 
 

Chapter 3
 
 

Willow had gone through classes that day. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw him. She was glad that Tara would let her come over. Willow liked being with Tara. Tara was smart, powerful and made her feel complete. Tara had been very understanding with Willow. Willow found herself enjoying the kisses and the touching. She had never told Buffy the extent of her and Tara's friendship.
 

Tara smiled when she saw Willow at her door. "Hey!" Willow said. Willow embraced Tara. Tara looked worried. "Is everything ok?"
 

"Yeah, my mom is insisting that I stop by and work putting all the text into the database. Over thirteen generations, my family has had the responsibility of the scribe."
 

"Scribe for?" Tara never talked about her past. Willow was intrigued.
 

"My mom has been sick lately. We are gypsies; she wants to make sure that the texts have up to date translations. Many tribes have lost the old magic, we have worked hard to keep ours."
 

Willow's blood ran cold. "Romany?"
 

She saw Tara's smile. "Yes, most people aren't familiar with different tribes."
 

"How fluent in Romany is your mom?"
 

"Like I said, we have about fourteen different dialects, from the generations. Why, Willow?"
 

"I need her to look at something."
 

"Sure, why don't you come with me."
 

"Thanks, let me make sure I have the file." Willow plugged in her laptop and quickly found the old document. She became nervous about the curse. What if Ms. Calendar had gotten the curse wrong? What about Angel's soul? "I have it. Let's go." Willow had been quiet during the short drive. Tara knocked at the door. Willow saw the small woman answer the door. She could feel the power inside the small woman. Willow watched as the women spoke in the foreign language.
 

"My name is Melinda, welcome to my home."
 

"Thank you Melinda."
 

"Tara tells me you need to get a translation."
 

"I need to know all the details of the curse."
 

"Curses are powerful things, Willow. Especially the old magic. Tell me about the curse you need."
 

"The rite of restoration. I cursed a vampire with his soul again. It seems that in the curse there was a clause about one moment of happiness and the soul is gone. I need to make sure that the soul never leaves the body."
 

She saw Melinda get nervous. Tara was just quietly looking on. "The rite of restoration is very powerful. There are only three translations left. Who did you curse?"
 

"Angelus."
 

She saw the color drain from Melinda's face. "Angelus. I remember he killed my cousin."
 

"Jenny Calendar."
 

"Yes. I hope he is rotting in hell now."
 

"He was in the demon dimension for many years. Angel had become a friend to the slayer and I. He saved our lives many times. We didn't know that one moment of happiness and his soul would disappear. He became Angelus again. Jenny thought that she could re-ensoul him. I performed the ritual. I just want to make sure his soul is permanent. If he reverts back to Angelus, I am dead as we speak. He knows I did the curse."
 

Tara was stunned about this. "I will look and make sure the curse is correct. The original castor of the curse had added the happiness clause. It was not part of the original curse. Show me the curse."
 

Willow plugged in her keyboard. She typed a few things and the screen brought the curse up. She saw Melinda reading the screen. "This isn't it."
 
 

Chapter 4
 
 

"What?" Willow said.
 

"This isn't the restoration curse." Both women could see the color drain from Willow's face.
 

"He was Angel afterwards. Angelus wasn't here. What is it then?"
 

"It is a love spell."
 

"HUH?"
 

"Basically, It gives a piece of your soul to the person you cast it upon. When you are with that person, you will feel complete. Everyday that they walk the earth. Your soul is in them. Their soul will be in you." Willow then passed out. Tara just looked at her mother. "Tara, it is for reasons like this that it is important that the magic be preserved. Your friend is soul bound to this Angel or Angelus. She will only find happiness with him and he with her. She has a good heart, perhaps she can tame him."
 

Tara had woken Willow up when she was done with her mom. "Tara, can you take me to my dorm, I need to think."
 

"Sure. My mom thinks you are a nice person. She said that because your heart is pure that your friend's soul is permanent. I need to ask you, do you have anything of his. My mom said she will anchor his soul for all eternity."
 

"I do." Willow said as she took the small Celtic cross of her neck. "He gave it to me for the Christmas. He is or was Irish."
 

"No problem. I will have it done for you by tomorrow."
 

"Thanks Tara. Listen, I need you to keep this between us for now." Willow had walked to her dorm in silence.
 
 

Chapter 5
 

Angel had been glad that the caseload had been light. He was tired. He had been on a stakeout. Cordelia and Wesley had taken over the daytime duty. He took his shoes off and looked at the machine. He had hoped for a message from Sunnydale, good or bad. He sat down on the couch and closed his eyes. He saw Willow in her bed crying. He knew that Oz had left her. He wished her could ease her pain. Without thinking he dialed the number from memory.
 

"Hello?"
 

"Willow."
 

"Hey Angel, um, Buffy isn't here now, can I take a message?"
 

"I was calling to talk to you. Is that okay Willow?"
 

"Yes, I could use someone to talk to."
 

"Any word yet?"
 

"No word. Just a postcard from Niagara Falls."
 

"I am sorry, is there anything I can do?"
 

"No, thanks for the offer though. I appreciate it."
 

"Hey Willow, isn't your spring break soon?"
 

"Yeah next week."
 

"I see. Aren't you going somewhere? I hear that it is a tradition among college students."
 

Willow chuckled. "Yeah, but I don't feel the need to go away. I have no where to go."
 

"Why do you say that?"
 

"Well, Buffy and Riley are going to see his family in Iowa. Giles has his friend Oliva coming in this week. Xander has Anya. So I figure I will just stay here. In case some thing happens."
 

"Willow, without sounding bad, that plan sucks. Listen, I have been working a lot here. I have a place up the coast. It is peaceful and by the ocean. Come with me, there is plenty of room. All we need to do is stop at the grocery store, I don't think you would want to drink your dinner."
 

"I would love to but what would Buffy think?"
 

She heard Angel chuckle. "On second thought. I really don't care what Buff thinks."
 

"The offer is open. I can pick you up."
 

"No, I can meet you. The Initiative will be out in force."
 

"The Initiative?"
 

"Yeah, they hunt demons and do experiments on them. They v-chipped Spike, he can't hurt any human. He kicks demon ass for his jollies."
 

"How is he taking it?"
 

"He pisses and moans a lot, but he deals."
 

Willow paused when she heard Buffy in the hallway. "Angel, I'll call you tomorrow. Buffy will be here and I don't feel like the 20 question routine."
 

"See you soon Willow."
 

"See you." She smiled. I miss you. She knew she heard that voice in her head. She smiled. Buffy had come in and told Willow all about patrol with Riley. "Don't you think you should tell Giles this?" Willow asked Buffy.
 

"Yeah, you're right. What would I do without you Willow?"
 

Willow then poured herself a relaxing bubble bath. She closed her eyes and tried to focus on Angel. 'Are you there?' she said in her head.
 

She heard the reply. 'Willow is that you?'
 

'Yes, I am here.'
 

'How is this?'
 

'Magic, do you want me to go away?'
 

'Never.'
 

'Do you mean that?'
 

'Yes. I can't explain it, but I miss you so much.'
 

'I might be able to.'
 

'I wish you could leave early.'
 

'I wish I could as well.'
 

'How is your wicca group?'
 

'A joke. All they do is sit there and bitch. There is one there with power. She is a friend.'
 

'That is good. Tell me about her.'
 

'Her family has been involved with magic for many generations.'
 

'Did I tell you I miss you?'
 

'I don't remember, but you can tell me again.'
 

'I would rather show you. '
 

'Soon Angel, very soon.'
 

'Come to the office, I will be ready. Be careful.'
 
 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Part 6
 
 

Willow smiled and bade him goodnight. The week had gone by fast for Willow. She waited until Buffy had left with Riley. She then drove to LA. She had found Angel Investigations easily. She smiled to herself as she stepped out of the car in a black pantsuit wearing the Celtic cross Angel had given her. Cordelia had smiled at Willow. Cordelia had excused herself and left. Wesley had already left the office.
 

Willow had walked into Angel's office. She went behind his desk, sat in the chair and smiled. She waited for him to come up. She was nervous as she heard the elevator. She had left the lights off in the office. "Willow?" He called out.
 

"I'm here." She said as she turned on the small green banker's lamp that sat on Angel's desk. She saw the way he was looking at her. She looked into his eyes; she saw the desire there. "Is that all you are bringing?" Willow asked as she took in his form.
 

"My bags are downstairs. Have you seen the apartment?"
 

"No, show me." Willow said, her eyes never leaving his.
 

She followed him into the elevator. "Is there something I should know?" Angel asked Willow.
 

"Yes, my friend Tara that I told you about."
 

"The witch."
 

"Yes, her family, they are Romany."
 

She saw the worry in his eyes. "Ms. Calendar had the wrong curse."
 

"What are you talking about?"
 

"Her family had been the scribes. Her mom, who is a powerful wicca, looked at the curse Ms. Calendar left. It is not the rite of restoration that I did on you. Part of my soul is in you. Miranda was able to anchor it to you permanently. The clause in the curse is gone."
 

She saw the way he looked at her. She went to say something, but she found her mouth being crushed by his. The kiss was electric. It was as though every cell in her body was tingling. She felt Angel's hand ravishing her body. Willow broke the kiss off when the need for air took over. Angel kept kissing her neck. Willow smiled when she opened her eyes and saw the big bedroom. She had remembered that bed from her dreams. No words were spoken as Angel picked her up and dropped her on the bed. He then walked over to the door and locked it. "I don't want any interruptions." He said. She saw the desire in his eyes. She smiled.
 

He took his time undressing her. She loved the feeling of his cool fingertips on her skin. She looked at him and whispered in his ear. "I want you."
 

"Whatever you desire princess." Angel said, putting his old accent into his voice. He undressed himself and slid inside her in one stroke. He gasped at how tight she was. He could not believe the feeling of being inside her. He felt truly alive. He enjoyed teasing her. He could not believe the passion that lie within her. He made sure she was screaming his name. He growled low as her nails raked his back. He did not care as his cock pounded inside her. He had already given her four orgasms. He knew that he was close. "Angel, please..." She said as she pulled his face into her neck.
 

Angel then kissed her neck. He knew she was near another climax, he then bit her. She came the moment he bit her. He came as her powerful blood hit his lips. He did not drink much blood. He then kissed her. "Imzadi." He whispered.
 

"What does that mean?" Willow asked.
 

"Mine. It means that you are mine as I am yours."
 

He saw her smile. She kissed his neck and whispered "Imzadi" in his ear. They had slept the rest of the day. When Willow woke up, she realized she was alone. She could feel Angel's presence in the building. She then realized the most of her clothes were still in her car. She grabbed a pair of denim jeans from her backpack. She slipped on the pair of jeans and one of his gray sweaters. She then headed upstairs. She saw the look Cordelia had given her.
 

"I have know idea what you did to him, but thank you. He has been such a pain in the ass for the last few months. It is good to see him smile again. Just remember I don't want him too happy. The he'll go all Grr on us!" Cordelia grinned.
 

"No, he won't. His soul is permanent."
 

"I don't know. The thought of his evil twin coming back."
 

"Hey," Angel said standing behind Willow. She smiled as he leaned into her.
 

"Hey yourself." Angel then asked Cordelia if there had been any calls.
 

"No, all is quiet on the home front." Willow was just about to say something when the blonde walked in. Willow could tell she liked Angel.
 

"Angel, is this a bad time?"
 

"Honestly Kate it is. I was just leaving for some time off."
 

"It is still daylight."
 

"Ok, after dark. Kate have you met Willow. Willow this is Kate."
 

Willow shook hands with the girl. Willow also shook her hair letting Kate see the mark that Angel had left on her. Kate made up some reason why she needed to leave. Angel and Willow shared a look.
 

"Willow where did you get that?" She then saw the blush Willow had, she had then seen her boss's sweater on Willow and the big smirk Angel had on his face. "Oh God, nasty mental picture. What about the curse?"
 

"Ms. Calendar had the wrong curse."
 

"Huh?"
 

"She created a program that would decipher the text, but it was the wrong thing. When I cursed Angel, I gave him a part of my soul. I had it anchored by the Romany. There is no clause."
 

"Does the gang know?"
 

"No, just me, Tara, her mom, Angel and you."
 

"Buffy will freak."
 

"Ironically, I don't care."
 

Cordelia smiled. "So what are you two doing this week?"
 

"Angel is taking me up to a villa he has."
 

"What did you pack?"
 

"Some casual clothes."
 

Angel had dug into his wallet. He handed Cordelia a gold card. "Take Imzadi shopping, I trust your taste Cordelia."
 

Angel then kissed Willow very passionately in front of Wesley and Cordelia. "Thank you." Willow told him.
 

"Anything for you, Imzadi." He then kissed her again. It was the sound of Wesley clearing his throat that stopped them. Cordelia had pulled Willow away and the girls hit the mall.
 
 

Part 7
 

"Angel, without being tactless, but your soul?" Wesley asked.
 

"It is permanent. Willow has a good friend who is the descendent of a Romany scribe. It seems when Jenny translated the rite of restoration; she had the wrong ritual. According to Willow, I have part of her soul, which I do believe. I mean last night, we had a lot of happiness, I have no need to destroy the world."
 

"Interesting. Does the slayer know?"
 

"I don't think so. I don't know how Buffy would take it. I don't think she would be very understanding."
 

"She was a very headstrong girl."
 

"She is also strong, I just hope she doesn't hurt Willow, physically or emotionally. Willow doesn't deserve it."
 

Willow could not believe the things Cordelia picked out. She was nervous at first, but then when she saw herself in the mirror, she would smile. Willow loved the feeling of running her hand over the small holes Angel had left in her neck. She saw Cordelia shiver when Willow showed off her bite. "I just never figured you and Angel." Cordelia said. "I get visions of everything else, but I never saw this one coming." The girls laughed at the comment.
 

On a whim, Willow stopped at an adult novelty store. She picked up the feather tickler and some lubricant. Cordelia just held her hand up to Willow and told her, "I don't want to know."
 

Willow smiled. She was glad that Cordelia had been okay with her and Angel. The girls arrived at the agency and found Angel and Wesley looking at a book on demons. "Imzadi." Willow called to him. He wrapped his arms around her. "I missed you."
 

"And I you." Willow said.
 

"We bought some presents."
 

"Is there anything left on this card Cordelia?"
 

"Possibly. Here are the receipts."
 

Cordelia had handed Angel a small stack of papers. "Imzadi, I bought you something." Willow said holding the box up to Angel. She saw his smile. The group watched as Angel opened the box. "Imzadi, you shouldn't have." Angel said kissing her. "I was told it is the highest quality for sketching." Angel then showed everyone the fancy journal that had nice blank pages.
 

Cordelia had repacked Willow's suitcases and had Wesley carry them into the trunk. "You have the number where we can be reached. But not unless it is an apocalypse."
 

"Also, I will have my laptop, so you can contact me via e-mail with the not so important stuff."
 

The group nodded as they watched Angel and Willow get into the Expedition. "It is a few hours drive, rest."
 

"Imzadi, promise you won't draw scary pictures, like when you were him."
 

"Love, I intend to draw you."
 

Willow smiled and fell asleep.
 

The drive had only taken about four hours. Angel had carefully carried Willow into the master bedroom. He then brought the suitcases in. He then noticed the black plastic bag from the adult novelty shop. He carefully brought the last items in, locked up and went to see Willow. He smiled as he realized she was awake. He also smiled when he realized that his sweater was the only thing he was wearing. "Imzadi." Willow said as she ran a hand up her leg. Angel had put down the last packages and ran towards the bed, leaping on it. He had landed next to Willow. He did not know when she had taken his clothes off, but he remembered her trailing kisses down his stomach. He watched as she took his length into her mouth. He would have never guessed her to be so talented, but she was driving him crazy.
 

His demon screamed to slam his cock down her throat. Instead he grabbed the sheets and moaned very loud. He waited until she had stopped. He then did a maneuver and was on top of her in seconds. He saw how her eyes sparkled. He then took his time kissing her. He teased her tongue with his nipples; he also teased her clit with his cool fingers. She was panting. He knew that she was going to come soon. He slid down the bed and began to lick her clit. He teased her, using his centuries worth of experience. He could feel the pressure building inside her. "Please, Imzadi, oh god Angel, please..." He then applied the pressure to the right places. He felt her spasms from the climax. Angel had waited until she had come down. He then saw the passion in her eyes.
 

"I want you, Imzadi." She said.
 

"As you desire, princess." Angel then slid inside her. Angel could not believe how tight she was. It drove him crazy to feel her muscles clamping down on him. Then she did the unexpected. She bit him on the neck hard. Angel slammed himself as deep as he could get inside her. She screamed from the intrusion. They then climaxed together. Angel had lay next to her for a while. He then kissed her. He was surprised to taste blood in the kiss. He opened her mouth with his finger. He saw traces of blood on her teeth. "Imzadi, are you okay?"
 

"I feel very well loved right now. Why?"
 

"You drew blood!"
 

"Oh, god am I going to be vampire now?"
 

"No, Imzadi, it takes more than a drop to sire someone. It just forms a consort bond."
 

"A consort bond?"
 

"Yes, it connects us. I will always be able to track you and you shall always be able to track me. I will feel your base emotions and you will feel mine. There will be no secrets between us. Consort bonds are eternal; they end when the mortal dies. Generally, the mortal is changed."
 

"Wow, so we will have the same memories?"
 

"I am not sure, I have never formed a consort bond with anyone before."
 

"Not even with Buffy?"
 

"No, I was too afraid that it could be used against her."
 

"Angel, my Imzadi, you said base emotions?"
 

"Yes, they are generally, love, hate, anger, rage, fear and passion."
 

"Passion, huh?" Willow said as she ran her fingertip along Angel's hard shaft. She saw him smile. He then kissed her hard. Soon he was inside her again. He was so amazed by her; she had accepted him completely. He growled as Willow used her inner muscles to squeeze him. He closed his eyes. The intensity took him by surprise he felt her orgasm through the consort bond, bit her again on the shoulder, not too deep. She growled as her blood hit his lips. Before he knew it he came hard.
 
 

Part 8
 

When she woke up, he noticed he was still asleep. She looked at him as he slept. She saw his leather bound journal. She opened the pages. She saw drawings of her asleep. She even noticed one of her doing the dishes. She smiled as she flipped through the drawings. She then glanced over at his sleeping form. He was looking at her with one eye open. She smiled. "What is the plan for today, Imzadi?"
 

"After we make love a couple of times, I figure we check out some museums then get something to eat. Then my love, we swim naked in the moonlight."
 

Willow smiled. She could not believe that Angel could ever be this passionate, he was always just the brooder, or as Xander called him, Deadboy. Willow had smiled at Angel. "If you want me, you have to catch me first." Willow said and bolted out of the bedroom. She laughed as she saw Angel running around the villa naked trying to find her. She opened the elegant mirrored doors and stopped in her tracks. She looked at the pool. It was the same pool that was in her dreams. She then looked and saw Angel running after her full speed.
 

He quickly wrapped his arms around her, took in a deep breath, kissed her hard and jumped into the pool, with Willow in his arms. They quickly floated to the top. Angel then placed kisses along her neck. "Angel, " She moaned. He growled for her. Angel then dove underwater and began removing the sweater from her. Willow giggled as she felt Angel swim by her. He quickly removed the offending garment from her. Angel then went underwater and pressed Willow's legs apart. He immediately began to massage her clit with his tongue. With his more sensitive hearing, he could hear Willow screaming out his name.
 

Eventually they made it out of the pool. Willow smiled as Angel carried her. They had showered quickly enough and got dressed. Angel smiled as he saw Willow in the long strait black skirt with the center slit and the deep amber colored silk blouse with the poet sleeves. Angel loved how she wore the small Celtic cross. Angel kissed her neck. Willow moaned. "Imzadi" he whispered in her ear. "Imzadi" she whispered back.
 

They had spent the day shopping in the local stores. They had also gone to the renaissance fair. She saw Angel smile as they entered the fair at night. Angel had stopped by the jewelry booth and bought Willow a ring, it was a cladagh, but the heart had a tiger eye stone. Angel saw how Willow was having fun. He was glad to see her smile. He put the ring in his pocket. He knew that she would be leaving for school in three more days. He did not want to be away from her.
 

Their last night in the villa Angel had cooked her a meal. He also bought a nice bottle of Merlot. He smiled when he saw Willow come out in a deep green silk slip dress. He loved her. "Do you like?" Willow softly asked.
 

"I love, I love you." Angel said and kissed her cheek. The meal was quiet. She smiled as Angel waited on her hand and foot. "I could get used to this you know." Willow joked with him. "I would not complain, my fair lady." He said.
 

He then made a fire in the fireplace. He motioned for Willow to sit next to him on the big oversized couch. "Willow, I know that things have moved fast between us. But I really don't want you to go back to school. But I can wait for an eternity for you. I bought you something. You are not required to wear it but I want you to." He said and slipped the cladagh ring on her finger, with the heart pointing to her.
 

He saw the tears run down her face. She smiled as the ring fit smoothly.
 

"Angel, I bought you something too. I hope you wear it, especially when Kate is around." Willow said and brought out an identical ring for Angel. She then slid it on his finger, with the heart pointing to him. They then took their time kissing each other. Angel had picked her up and carried her to the bed.
 

They had made love only one more time that night, for he knew she had been sore from the weeklong vigorous lovemaking. In the morning Willow asked Angel to take his ring off. He looked nervously at her and did. He watched as she dumped some herbs on it and said something. He saw the heart glow. "Willow, may I ask?"
 

"The Initiative use a device to measure your body temperature. That is how they tell vampires from humans. Whenever you come to Sunnydale wear that ring. It will give you the 98.6-degree temperature. I don't want them taking away my happiness." Willow said and kissed Angel.
 

The drive to Angel Investigations was not too long. She stayed with Angel until the light came. She hated to leave his warm inviting bed. "I will try and get up this weekend. I don't want to be away from you too long. Imzadi." Angel said kissing her neck. Willow moaned. "Angel, please..." Willow said and exposed her shoulder. "Imzadi." Angel said. He felt his face change and sank his teeth in. Willow moaned and pressed his teeth further in. Willow then tilted Angel's head and bit his neck. She groaned when she felt his blood hit her lips. He then looked at her. They passionately kissed. Willow moaned softly. He watched as she got into the car and headed back to Sunnydale.
 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Part 9
 
 

Willow had gone back into the class routine. She was glad Buffy never noticed the bite marks Angel had left behind. She had always worn her ring. Willow missed Angel. He would call her everyday, sometimes twice a day. Buffy had planned for the gang to meet at the Bronze that night. Willow had tried to get out of it, but it was no use. Willow then found out that Xander and Anya were also going to be there and of course Riley and Graham.
 

She had nothing against Riley. She wanted Buffy to find love in Riley. She was afraid of Buffy's reaction to her and Angel might be. She knew that Buffy and Riley had been trying to set up her and Graham. He was nice; she liked him, but only as a friend. She still played along. She was glad there were only a few short weeks until the end of the semester. She would spend the summer with Angel.
 

It was going great until Giles had called. The gang, including Graham and Riley had met at Giles. Something was going down. They arrived at the apartment. Willow's heart skipped a beat when she saw Angel's car. She also noticed Buffy tense up. "You rang Giles!" Willow said trying to sound cheerful, instead of the my boyfriend in here voice. No one had noticed the looks that Angel and Willow were exchanging, except Riley.
 

"How long have they been a couple Buffy?" Riley asked.
 

"Huh?"
 

"Angel and Willow."
 

"Riley, Angel is in my past. They aren't a couple." Buffy said. She downplayed it. Buffy then started to notice the looks that Riley picked up on. Buffy knew that she needed to have a talk with Willow. Riley and Graham had left. Buffy had said she was going on patrol. She followed Willow and Angel.
 

She saw Angel pull Willow into his arms and kiss her passionately. She saw how Angel had begun to kiss her neck. "Imzadi" Willow whispered. Buffy then headed back to her dorm. She had a mix of emotions. She had waited for Willow to get home. She noticed that Willow and Angel went the long way to campus. She smiled as Willow tried to slip in late.
 

"It's usually my job sneaking in late without waking up my room mate." Buffy said. She saw Willow jump. "Buffy you scared the shit out of me."
 

"We need to talk."
 

"Ok. Lets talk. What are we going to talk about?"
 

"Angel."
 

Willow took in a deep breath. "Ok."
 

"When Willow, when did you start taking in demon lovers?"
 

"Somehow I knew you would not understand."
 

"Willow, Angel has a curse, remember one moment of happiness, Angelus is back."
 

"The curse has no clause."
 

"No, it does and you just couldn't give Angel that one moment of happiness."
 

"Ok, Buffy your right. I mean look at how I kept Oz." Willow said bitterly. She then reached into her closet and packed a bag. "Where are you going?" Buffy demanded.
 

"I am going to see Cordy. I will probably plan a shopping trip." Willow said and left. Buffy was pissed. She then went to the mansion on Crawford Street. She saw Angel sitting by the fire. "Buffy," He said.
 

"What is going on with you and Willow?"
 

"She is my consort."
 

"Bullshit, what about us."
 

"We broke up. I did not mean to hurt you Buffy. I can't explain my actions and affections with Willow, but I love her."
 

"You hurt her and I will kill you."
 

Buffy then left. She hid in the bushes and saw Willow's car pull into the driveway. She saw Willow get out of the car. She knew her fiend had been hurt. Buffy saw Angel run out to Willow. He then escorted her into the house. Buffy had decided to sneak in behind them. She saw Angel bring her upstairs. They went into a sitting room. Buffy watched as Angel lit the fire. "Imzadi, here drink some.." Angel said handing her a glass. Angel sat next to her and held her while she cried. "Buffy has never been that cruel before."
 

"She said it to hurt you and I am sorry she has. All I can do is try to prove to you that I mean what I say."
 

"You have nothing to prove, I can feel it."
 

"I don't want to stay in that dorm with her. I mean she has Riley, it is Riley this and Riley that. Why can't I find someone to care about me?"
 

"You have me. Remember you have me."
 

"She said something really hurtful to you. What?"
 

"She refused to believe that the clause in the curse is gone. I didn't give you complete happiness."
 

"Do you believe that?"
 

"Part of me does. Part of me wants to tell her to go to hell. Does that make me a bad person?"
 

"No, my Willow, it does not. I love you body, soul and mind. We bound by blood, by soul and passion."
 

"I never thought that being blood bound could be such a good thing."
 

"Me neither. Like I said, consort bonds are very rare, there is no divorce, only death."
 

"We are all going Bronzing tomorrow night. I will have Cordelia get you something nice, for me."
 

"Black leather Angel?"
 

"Yes, you look good in leather." Angel said and kissed her. Willow moaned as Angel kissed her neck. Buffy saw the tenderness between them. She wanted Willow to be happy, but not with Angel. She stood in the shadows and watched as Angel and Willow made love. She saw how he was gentle with her, they way he teased her. She also saw the wildness Willow possessed as a lover. She heard Willow moans and growls. She saw how they moved as one. She knew then that she had lost Angel. She headed back to Riley's dorm. She went into his room and fell asleep.

Part 10
 
 

Willow had woken up during the day. She saw Angel sleeping there beside her. She loved how he looked in his sleep. He looked so peaceful. Willow had been nervous. Adam was making a lot of trouble. She knew that they were going to need all the help they could get to kill this thing.
 

Willow called Cordelia. Cordelia was going to pick up Willow. Willow was glad that Angel had been showing her self-defense. Granted she knew that she stood no chance against Buffy. Angel was worried about Willow. He did not trust Buffy. Angel had handed Willow a credit card. He then passionately kissed her in front of Cordelia. The girls had then left. Shopping at the mall was fun. Willow had become nervous when she kept seeing Buffy. Cordelia had also seen Buffy. Willow had tried to be cool about it, but Cordelia did not trust Buffy.
 

The shopping trip went well. Buffy hadn't made any trouble. Willow got back to the mansion and found Angel waiting patiently for her. "Imzadi, " he said and wrapped his arms around her. "I missed you."
 

"We are meeting again at Giles for a pre-Bronze meeting. Then, my love, we hit the Bronze, then the hunt for Adam begins, I want you here, safe."
 

"Angel, I want to go with you. I have some protection spells that will help protect me. You are looking at a Romany wicca here."
 

"Romany wicca?
 

"Yes, Tara's mom has shown Tara the ancient magic. I will be okay."
 

"What did you buy love?" Angel asked her.
 

"Well, I bought some wonderful jasmine body wash and lotion. So I am going to take a bubble bath, then I am going to slip into a killer outfit. Then after we Bronze and kill this thing, you will undress me and make wild love to your Imzadi."
 

"I love your plans, little one." Angel said kissing her forehead. When she left to run the bath water. Angel spoke aloud "Thank you powers that be for my Imzadi" and then bolted into the bathroom.
 

He watched as Willow slowly removed her clothes. She knew he was watching him. He saw how she had bent over the tub and slipped her toe in the water. "MMM" she moaned. Angel smiled. She knew that one of the sounds Willow made that drove him crazy.
 

"Coming in Lover" Willow said without ever turning around.
 

"Am I invited?" Angel smoothly asked.
 

"Lover, come in, me" Willow said with a smirk on her face. Angel then removed his clothes. He then slipped into the large tub with Willow. He took his time using the sponge the wash her back. She moaned at his touch. Angel then rubbed a hand up her leg. "Angel, sorry, I have to shave."
 

"Let me."
 

"Really?"
 

"Yes really. I want to shave your legs and the sweet pussy of yours."
 

"Angel, you drive me crazy."
 

"I try, Willow, Imzadi."
 

"You said that there is no divorce in a consort bond. Is there a wedding?"
 

"Yes, it is a small ritual. Promises are made, candles are lit, and blood is exchanged. I have been to some of these ceremonies. It usually ends up an orgy though."
 

"Well maybe we do our own ceremony. Only we will skip the orgy and just make love to each other."
 

"Anything for you, my princess."
 

When the water got cool Angel stood up and turned the shower on. He then used the jasmine lotion and began to shave Willow. Willow was amazed as he did the task effortlessly. He also shaved off her nest of curls. Willow then smiled as he went to work on her pussy with his tongue. He knew everything she liked and pleased her. She then went over to the bed. She got on all fours and wiggled for Angel. She heard his growl. Soon he was on the bed. He entered her swiftly, feeling her tightness and heat. He growled as Willow clamped on him like a vice. Angel then bit her as he climaxed. Willow screamed his name repeatedly. Both were unaware that Buffy and Giles were downstairs with Xander and Anya.
 

Angel then licked her wound. The bites were never deep. His intention was only to show ownership, not to feed. Angel then smiled as Willow told him she needed his help getting dressed. She handed him the leather corset. He took his time with the laces, enjoying how she moaned or wiggled against him with a pull of the strings. He then helped her dress in the black leather pants. He handed her the amber colored silk blouse with the poet sleeves. Angel dressed in his battle gear, which meant black leather pants, a bulletproof vest (to protect his heart) and a matching amber shirt. He armed himself and armed Willow up with some holy water and a stake. The were laughing until they noticed they weren't alone.
 
 

Part 11
 
 

Willow knew that the secret was out. She saw the look Buffy was giving her. It made Willow want to die. Angel put his arm protectively around Willow. "You guys were late, we got worried." Giles had finally said. They did the meeting at the mansion. Giles then directed Riley to give them more info on Adam, namely weaknesses, defense mechanisms. Everyone noticed how Angel sat near Willow. In his head he thanked her for the vest.
 

As they were leaving Buffy noticed the two small marks on Willow's neck. Buffy grabbed her wrist. "He bit you."
 

"Yeah, I offered him a drink."
 

Buffy shook her head and walked away. Xander could not believe Willow and Deadboy. He also noticed the fact that Riley and Graham did not pick up on the fact that Angel was a vampire. He saw they way they moved. He was just stunned. Buffy had been unusually quiet, which unnerved Xander. "Are you okay?"" Xander asked Buffy.
 

"Oh, yeah, Adam is so dead. I really need to kill something tonight."
 

The group was having a mellower time when the beepers went off. Adam was back. They went out in force. Willow had stayed in the shadows. She saw all electrical equipment. She saw how Angel Buffy and Riley were wearing him down. Willow saw the stake gash into the electrical components. Willow opened the bottle of holy water and ran at Adam. The water hit the mark, but not before her scream. Angel watched horrified as the bone projectile went through her. He saw how Adam was twisting the bone, as if to rip her apart. Angel screamed "IMZADI!!!" His face changed, which startled Riley and Graham, and went crazy on Adam. Angel ripped Adam apart. Everyone heard Adams screams of pain as Angel was killing him painfully. Then Angel felt it. His Imzadi, she was dying. He dropped Adam and ran over to her. "Buffy call Tara."
 

"We need to get her to a hospital." Riley said.
 

"No, her injuries are too severe, she will die soon."
 

Giles had done as Angel had requested. "Imzadi," Willow coughed, as blood flowed freely from her.
 

"I am here."
 

"Take Imzadi, my ... last ...breath.."
 

"You will be okay, Imzadi"
 

"No injuries too severe, please Imzadi."
 

They all looked at Angel. "Imzadi, if I do, you won't die. I can't lose you."
 

"Please, Imzadi..."
 

"I love you, my princess, Imzadi." Angel then kissed her neck. He positioned Willow so his arms were around her. He then felt his face change and kiss Willow's neck. They watched as Angel sunk his fangs deep into Willow's neck. They saw how Angel slit his wrist and placed it over her mouth. They saw how Willow drank from Angel's wrist. He cut his other wrist and placed his blood over her wound, prevent a major scar. The group watched horrified as both Willow and Angel appeared to be in the throes of a climax.
 

Then it was over; Willow choked for the last time. "She will wake up in a few hours. Tara has access to the real curse. My soul has been anchored, but hers needs to be. The body takes it best before the first kill. I don't want her to have the blood of the innocents on her mind."
 
 

Part 12
 

Angel then carried her back to the mansion. Tara and Melinda had come at once. Melinda had been nervous when the call came. Giles, the watcher had explained the circumstances surrounding her death. Melinda was surprised that it was Angelus who told them to get her as quickly as possible. Melinda had noticed how Angelus never left her side. He kept touching her face, called her Imzadi.
 
 

"What does Imzadi mean?" Buffy asked.
 

"Mine." Angel said softly.
 

Riley and Graham had studied this hostile. They knew that he could have easily killed every single one of them. Yet he never did. He helped them. Graham had asked Buffy about him. "Angel has helped us a lot. He has saved all of our lives on many occasions. He and Buffy were in love in high school. Gypsies cursed him. We did not know that one moment of happiness would make him lose his soul. We learned the hard way. As Angelus he killed a dear friend of mine. He tried to bring about the end of the world, Willow had recursed him. They fought, but it was too late. Buffy had sent him to hell. But he had his soul in hell, he came back. He has tried to make amends with us. He helped out during the ascension. He left for LA afterwards. We did not want to take any chances that Angelus would come back. He has still helped us. His soul is permanent. He has a conscious. He doesn't feed of humans; he helps fight the darkness. He has always been protective of us. He is not a threat please give him and Willow safe passage out of Sunnydale."
 

Graham nodded. He liked Giles. Giles had a good heart, and a wise head on his shoulders. Riley just saw the devotion that Angel had to Willow. He knew he should capture them, but yet he could not. He was lost in his thoughts when he heard the moan. Everyone looked to see Willow waking up. Riley noticed how Angel had held her down protecting the others. Melinda has made the herbs and done the incantation. She then took the knife and stabbed Willow. Angel had dropped Willow and she slumped to the ground. Everyone watched as the light show began.
 

Melinda then took the knife out of Willow's chest and gave Angel the mug full of blood. Willow gulped down the blood quickly, the ridges on her face smoothing out. She looked around, her eyes getting used to the room. "Imzadi, the shadows, they are so different."
 

"Yes, your senses are enhanced, you will be able to see and hear things as never before."
 

"Imzadi, stay with me."
 

"Imzadi, I will never leave you. We are bound, by soul, by blood, by rebirth." Angel said to her not letting her go.
 

"Hey, Willow. I got you something to change into." Cordelia said.
 

Willow smiled. "Imzadi, can you get me out of this corset?"
 

Angel smiled, "Yes, I shall princess."
 

Everyone sat down and just let the events of the evening finally sink in. "I'll handle the paperwork on Willow's death." Riley said.
 

"Thanks." Giles said.
 

He then saw the vampires come downstairs. Willow was dressed in black jeans and a green sweater. Angel had on black pants and a gray sweater. Both wore the rings. "So what happens now?" Buffy asked.
 

"Willow, you are welcome to work with me at the agency. It isn't that far from the UCLA campus. If you attend night school you can finish your education." Angel said.
 

"You still want me?" Willow nervously asked.
 

"Imzadi, eternally, Imzadi." Angel said and kissed her cool skin.
 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Part 13
 
 

The group left the mansion. Spike had run into Giles on his way home. "Slayer looks pissed." He said, smiling the entire time.
 

"The events of the last few days have taken their toll on her."
 

"Care to tell me?" Spike asked.
 

"We killed Adam, Willow is dead and we played Romany magic roulette tonight."
 

"Red is dead?" Spike asked, sadness evident on his face.
 

"Not in the strictest of sense, she finished off Adam, but was gravely injured, it seems that her and Angel have a passion of their own. He sired her and we made her soul permanent."
 

"Wow! Peaches and Red. How is Slayer taking it?"
 

"She is dealing with it. She hasn't attacked Willow, so I think she is handling it very well."
 

"Care for a drink?" Giles asked Spike.
 

"I think I need one."
 

Giles and Spike had just went into the local tavern. He saw Melinda and Tara. Melinda had waved the over to her. Spike had a drink with them and left. Melinda asked Giles about Jenny.
 

Giles had gone with Melinda to her house. They talked about the sacred duties that had been born with. He found Melinda so easy to talk to. Melinda smiled. "I haven't had this much exciting conversation since Gerald died."
 

"I am sorry for you loss."
 

"This sounds cruel and it is not mean to, but I am glad. Gerry had Non-Hochkins lymphoma. He was suffering until he died. I do miss him, but his soul is at rest."
 

"How was Tara with it?"
 

"She took it hard when he died. She was daddy's shooting star." They talked for most of the night. He loved talking to her. He was also amazed at her taste in wines. They had been drinking a burgundy. "Come, Rupert, It is time for bed." Melinda told him. He loved the way she moved. He found her to be the perfect lover.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 

Cordelia had gone back to the Bronze. She had a good vibe from Graham. Then she met Forrest. She could tell by the way he dressed, he had style. Graham had asked her about Tara. He liked her. He found her to be alluring. He loved her shyness. Tara had met up with them at the Bronze. "Tara, I thought you would head home." Cordelia said as she hugged the girl. "Thank you for helping my friends, we owe you big time." Cordelia said.
 

"Mom, has a guest so I just figured I would stop by here."
 

"Guest?" Cordelia asked.
 

"Yeah, Giles." Tara said.
 

"Join us!" Cordelia said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
 

It was the knock on the door that woke Joyce up. She went downstairs in her navy blue silk pajamas. She smiled when she saw Spike. "I am sorry Buffy isn't here now."
 

"I stopped by to see if you had any hot chocolate. I am having a horrible day."
 

"Sure Spike, come in!" Joyce said.
 

Spike had told her about the whole Angel/ Willow thing and about how Buffy took it. He said Giles had met a friend in the tavern and Spike had no where else to go. He and Joyce smiled sipping hot chocolate. Joyce offered Spike a drink. "I would be honored Joyce." He said. It wasn't long before they were in bed. Joyce moaned as Spike pleased her. She could she why her daughter had liked the undead. They had amazing recovery time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Part 14
 

5 years later:
 

Giles smiled at Melinda. He could not believe that they had been married for four years. He was also nervous. Tara and Graham were getting married in two weeks and he was nervous, because his wife was nervous. "Rupert, Do you have any regrets about not having a family of your own?"
 

"Sometimes, But I now have a family. I have the most beautiful wife, a wonderful step daughter and a nice soon to be son in law."
 

"Correction, dearest. You have a six week pregnant wife." She saw Rupert's jaw drop. She smiled as his eyes lit up. "Us, we, you having a baby?"
 

"I love you Melinda."
 

"I love you Rupert. Shall we tell the others tonight?"
 

"I think it would be fitting. I mean we are getting the whole group together. Willow and Angel are coming down form LA, Cordelia and Forrest will be back from their honeymoon, Buffy and Riley will be here with Suzanna."
 

"Don't forget Spike and Joyce will be back from Venice this afternoon also."
 

The group had all met at Angel's mansion. He had the place on Crawford street redone. It had been fully restored with lots of big heavy curtains to shut out daylight and magnificent grounds. Angel even had a special moon garden for the plants that were night bloomers.
 

Willow and Angel had gotten their first. Willow had been so nervous. She had kept in touch, but hadn't seen anyone since she left 5 years ago. Angel had stopped at the Butcher shop and purchased a lot of blood. He knew that he and Willow would be in the mood to celebrate. He also knew that Spike was coming. He brought lots of wine up from the cellar. "Angel why are some bottles recd while others are green and black?"
 

"The red bottles are blood wine. I use blood bank blood in the distilling process. I just am trying to think of a way to let our human guests know not to drink it."
 

"Why not just tell them Imzadi?"
 

"I am just trying to think of the best words." They then kissed. It was the knocking on the door that broke the kiss. Angel opened the door to be greeted by Melinda and Giles and a trunk full of groceries. "Angel" Giles said and hugged the vampire. "Giles, do me a favor, park your car in the garage, Willow and I will unload it. Melinda welcome to our home."
 

"Thank you Angel."
 

"Melinda!" Willow exclaimed and hugged the woman. "Willow you look radiant."
 

"Thank you." Willow said. "Where is Giles going?" Willow asked.
 

"I told him to park in the garage so I can unload the trunk full of groceries." Angel said smiling at Willow.
 

"You are so sweet Imzadi"
 

"Thank you my princess."
 

Angel had unloaded the groceries and went with Giles into the billiard room. "Are you sure they don't need any help in there?" Giles said.
 

"I offered, but Willow kicked me out."
 

"How is she?"
 

"She has nightmares sometimes, I know she gets sad. When you have lived as long as I have, you realize how separate from the world you are. I am trying to make things as easy as I can for her. How is the Initiative?"
 

"After the whole Adam affair. They were shut down. The men were reassigned. The mortality rate remains low. Things are back to normal, or as normal as a hellmouth can get."
 

"Giles there is something I need you to remember. Be careful what you drink tonight. There is a reason that Willow, Spike and I have different glasses than you."
 

"I appreciate the warning."
 

"I do not think you would enjoy the bloodwine."
 

"Bloodwine?"
 

"It was done centuries ago. I have the recipe. I make it with blood bank blood. It is a delicacy among vampires."
 

"Interesting."
 

Angel heard more cars arriving. He knew by his enhanced hearing that it must be Cordelia and Forrest. Soon after the rest of the guests arrived. Willow enjoyed her role as hostess. Tara watched as she ate real food. It was Giles clinking his glass that had gotten everyone's attention. "If I may, I have been lucky enough to be married to the most beautiful woman in my eyes here. I have just been informed that we are expecting. I love you Melinda!" Giles said and kissed her deeply. Everyone cheered. Angel saw Willow's eyes changed for a moment. He knew that she had expected a family someday, and now she couldn't, he touched her hand gently. She smiled.
 

As the evening wore on Buffy had spent most of her time chasing a two-year-old around. The child bumped into Willow. Willow bent down and picked up the child. "It is okay little one, let's find your mommy!" Willow used her night vision and found Buffy. Buffy tensed as she saw the vampire holding her child. Buffy ran over to her daughter and took away from Willow. Willow saw how she examined her child for bite marks. "Don't ever touch her again." Buffy spat and walked away. Willow slumped in the swing and cried softly.
 

Angel was talking to guests when he felt something was wrong. He closed his eyes and found her sitting balled up on the swing. "Imzadi, shh!" Angel whispered holding her. He saw Melinda come over to them. "Are you alright, Willow?" Melinda asked her voice full of worry.
 

"Yeah, I just felt the need to be alone." Willow meekly said. Melinda looked at Angel. They both knew something had happened. Melinda told Willow she would be inside if she needed anything. Angel held Willow in his arms. "She was so mean to me."
 

"Buffy?"
 

"Yes, Suzanna was running around in the garden, she ran into me. I picked her up and brought her to Buffy. Buffy looked as though she was going to kill me. She then inspected the child for bite marks, as though I would ever feed from a child. She then told me if I ever touched her child again she'd kill me."
 

"That bitch!" Angel said. He pressed Willow against him tightly. "Giles needs to speak with us."
 

Willow got up and looked at Angel. "How do I look?"
 

He smiled and licked away any traces of blood tears. "You look radiant, Imzadi."
 

She smiled. Most of the guests had been leaving. Willow had also felt said that Xander had not even refused the invite. According to Giles, Xander had become bitter about Willow and Angel after she died. Angel shook his head. He knew that they hated him, not Willow, but took it out on her. It angered him that they stepped on her heart so easily. "I think a new prophecy will happen soon."
 

"Please tell me it involves a new slayer being called." Willow said bitterly. Giles shot Angel a look. Angel gave Giles the trademark I will tell you later look. Giles nodded. "It does make some reference to a new slayer. Melinda and I have been translating the text. It goes along the lines of 'bound by blood bound by soul, the scourge and the pure, as one they will be, united for eternity, as one they live as one, the child conceived on the bloodmoon, shall be born when circle comes to capture the moon, the child will be the chosen one, she will fight for the light. She will have the strength of the father with the power of the mother; she will walk in the light fight into the night. "
 

Willow looked at Giles. "We think it means you."
 

"I am dead, the dead don't have children."
 

"It is obscure, but we think it is you."
 

"Willow, Angelus was the scourge of Europe. He killed more than many other vampires in history. He like to kill watchers."
 

"The slayer, she is the pure."
 

"Willow, you have no malice in you heart. Trust me!"
 

"It is late, we all need to rest. Giles, Melinda, I have the guest room ready for you guys." Angel said. He leaned into Willow's ear. "Go to bed, Imzadi, I will be there soon."
 

Willow nodded and went to bed.
 

Angel waited util he knew that she was out of hearing distance. "Buffy was mean to her. Suzann ran into Willow. Willow picked her up and brought her over to Buffy. Buffy then inspected the child's neck for bite marks right in front of Willow. The bitch told her if she ever touched the child again, Buffy would kill her."
 

Melinda's heart went out to the poor girl. Even Giles just shook his head. Angel had tried to calm down as he went to his lover's bed. He found her curled up in the corner in a ball. She was looking out at the moon. "Willow," Angel said.
 

"Yes," She said not moving. "Imzadi, come to bed. Please, I want to hold you." Angel said to her. She got up and crawled on the bed. He kissed her forehead. "I can kill her if you want." Angel offered. Willow looked into his eyes. She knew he meant it.
 

"No, let her have her pitiful existence. She was never that mean. She must be pretty unhappy in her life."
 

Angel smiled. He loved her heart. Angelus wanted to rip he spine out of the slayer and make a necklace from the bones for his beloved. Willow giggled at the mental picture. "Imzadi, be nice." She told him. Soon Angel found himself making love to Willow. He was amazed at how passionate she was. It was only after she was sired that he found out how deep her passions ran. He was the luckiest man alive, or in his case undead.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 

Angel held Willow through the nightmares. He had been trying to control his temper. He knew that the bitch would be at Giles' tonight. He just wanted to know why she was being this way to Willow. Angel looked at his sleeping Imzadi. He knew that she had not changed since he brought her across. Yes, she was allergic to sunlight and fire, but her personality had not changed. She did get physically strong and sparred with him daily.
 

He liked the fact that she was a quick learner. He loved how graceful she could be with a sword. His princess, every day that passed he grew more amazed by her. He loved it. He loved her thirst for knowledge, her new sense of adventure. He also was enjoying her kinky streak. He closed his eyes and remembered. He felt his desire stirring.
 

Willow as if she knew woke up and watched as Angel was pleasuring himself. She smiled, she put her cool hand on his and spoke "Imzadi."
 

"I hope I didn't wake you." Angel said. He had never been caught by Willow before. He saw her walk over to a dresser and pull out the long black silk scarves. He loved when she was wild. She then tied his wrists to the bed. He groaned. She then straddled him. She could feel his hardness pressing against her. She then blindfolded him. She ran her nails along his chest. She would sometimes make a small cut and lick the blood away. He loved it when she fed off him.
