My muse has been whispering in my ear ALL day. But sadly it wasn't about any of the stories I have written so far. She did have me intrigued though and the more she whispered the more excited I got…so after work we shared a pint of chocolate ice cream and I began to write.

This takes place during school hard. Buffy has not been tasted by a vampire. Yet.

I am editing this story, when I am finished I will be starting on the sequel. I hope you’re as excited as I am.

Nothing better than the blood of a Slayer


" Spike. That's what the other vampire called him? That's a little unorthodox, isn't it?" Giles asked polishing his glasses.

"Maybe he's reformed." Buffy piped in hopefully.

"Perhaps he went by another name in... times past." Giles muttered to himself.

"Well, he can't be any worse than any other creature you've faced." Giles said to Buffy as he placed his glasses back on his face.

"He's worse. Once he starts something he doesn't stop until everything in his path is dead." Angel said cryptically. He had suddenly appeared from behind the stacks.

"Hmm. So, he's thorough, goal-oriented." Xander Quipped

"We were at the Bronze before. Thought you said you might show." Buffy said to Angel looking up at him through her thick lashes.

"You said you weren't sure if you were going." Angel said quietly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh, there you are." Giles said looking down into the book on the table in front of him.

"There who is?" Jenny asked looking over his shoulder.

"Our new friend Spike. He's known as 'William the Bloody'. Earned his nickname by torturing his victims with railroad spikes. Very pleasant. Well, here's some good news: he's barely two hundred. He's not even as old as Angel is…Oh." Giles said frowning

"That's a bad look, right?" Xander asked noticing the expression on the watcher's face.

"I think your suggestion of running away this Saturday might've been a good one. Spike has fought two Slayers in the last century, and... he's killed them both." Giles said removing his glasses and polishing them furiously. ‘Bloody hell. What if she dies?’ Giles asked himself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Slaaayer! Here, kitty, kittyyy. I find one of your friends first, I'm gonna suck 'em dry. And use their bones to bash your head in. Are you getting a word picture here?" Spike asked smiling to himself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Yeah. Time was you would've taken her out in a heartbeat. Now look at you. I bet this, uh, tortured thing is an act, right? You're not... housebroken?" Spike asked

"I saw her kill the Master. Hey, you think you can take her alone? Be my guest. I'll just feed and run." Angel said

"Don't be silly! We're all friends. We'll do it together. Let's drink to it." Spike said invitingly.

They both slowly leaned in towards Xander's neck. At the last moment Spike punched Angel in the face. "You think you can fool me?! You were my sire, man! You were my bloody... Yoda!" Spike said incredulously.

"Things change." Angel replied

"Not us! Not demons! Man, I can't believe this. You Uncle Tom! Come on, people! This isn't a spectator sport!" Spike yelled furiously.

Angel grabbed Xander and they ran.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Fe, fi, fo fum. I smell the blood of a nice ripe" Spike turned to face Buffy. "Girl."

"Do we really need weapons for this?" Buffy asked casually leaning against the wall holding an axe.

"I just like them. They make me feel all manly." Spike said tossing his weapon. He ran his hand down his chest seductively. "The last Slayer I killed... she begged for her life. You don't strike me as the begging kind." He said stepping closer.

"You shouldn'ta come here." Buffy ground out through clenched teeth. ‘Why are all the hot ones undead?’ She asked herself looking over Spike's physique, she could feel her panties dampening.

"No. I've messed up your doilies and stuff. But I just got so bored. I'll tell you what. As a personal favor from me to you I'll make it quick…It won't hurt a bit." Spike said casually stepping closer to Buffy. ‘Bollocks…is that her scent? She smells so bloody good…so erotic… No wonder Angel's all housebroken.’

"No, Spike. It's gonna hurt a lot." Buffy said lunging at him, fists raised.

Spike caught her and pressed his body into hers against the wall. The instant their bodies touched both of them felt a bolt of electricity flow through them.

Buffy groaned lightly, unconsciously thrusting her pelvis into his. She turned her neck to grant him access. ‘What the hell am I doing?’

Spike growled deep in his throat and lunged at her neck. He sank his fangs into her jugular.

Buffy moaned and shuddered as she shattered, sending a shocking amount of wetness to her core.

The instant her blood hit his tongue, the smell of her arousal hit his nose, as well as Buffy's own unique scent.

Buffy thrust her hips forward, searching for the friction that would allow her to shatter again, rubbing against his increasingly hardening shaft.

Spike growled with lustfully, his fangs still buried in her neck. He grabbed one of her legs at the knee and pulled it up to his hip pulling it around his waist. He reached down and viciously ripped her panties from her. He quietly put them into his pocket.

Buffy gasped when she felt the fabric tear, but that didn’t stop the dizzying pace at which she was rubbing herself against him.

Spike pulled his fangs out and licked her neck clean. "Mine. You are MINE. You understand me?" He asked thrusting his hips forward to bring more contact between their bodies.

Buffy could only nod against him. Spike lifted her other leg and pressed her into the wall behind her.

"Bloody hell…you smell so good." Spike whispered into her ear. "I'll just bet you taste as good as you smell Slayer.” He growled softly into her ear, rubbing his jean clad cock against her slick opening.

"Oh…" Buffy moaned. The feeling of his hard cock behind his jeans against her swollen core ignited yet another fire deep within her belly. She lifted her other leg and wrapped it around him, pulling him closer.

‘Oh yeah harder…please’ She thought to herself grinding into Spike again. Spike increased his pace thrusting at her, still fully clothed. She was going to explode again. ‘What is he doing to me? I’ve never felt this way before.’ She knew it. She could feel it. Buffy was powerless to stop it.

"Mmmmm…yeah…you like that Slayer?" He whispered in her ear.

Buffy nodded. "I'm…I …oh…" Buffy moaned incoherently, continuing to move against his hardness.

"Buffy?" She heard her mom call from inside the locked room.

"I'M COMING" She yelled as the most intense orgasm her inexperienced young body had ever felt ripped through her. "Oh god I can't believe I just…" Tears come to her eyes as she realized the effect he had on her. She swallowed hard as she realized what she had wanted him to do. What she had almost allowed him to do.

Spike backed up a little and allowed her feet to touch solid ground again. On shaky legs she tried to stand on her own. She swayed a little and grabbed on to his arm for support. "Sorry…I …I'm sorry." She whispered turning away from him, tears of embarrassment welling in her eyes.

"Well I'm sure as hell not." Spike said passionately. "I'm coming for you Slayer. Whenever I want to. You belong to me now, 'cept I'm going to taste something other than your blood next time" He tilt edher chin up so she looked directly into his eyes. " You got that Kitten?"

Buffy nodded and closed her eyes. When she opened them again he was gone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Oh my god! What’s wrong with me?’ Buffy asked herself as she stalked into her last cemetery for her nightly patrol. ‘I don't want him. I don’t. Bad evil vampire. ‘So why the hell have I thought of him coming for me every night for the last four days?’
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Nothing better than the blood of a Slayer_2

"Well I'm sure as hell not." Spike said passionately. "I'm coming for you Slayer. Whenever I want to. You belong to me now, 'cept I'm going to taste something other than your blood next time." He tilted her chin up so she looked directly into his eyes. " You got that Kitten?"

Buffy nodded and closed her eyes. When she opened them again he was gone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

‘What the hell is wrong with me?’ Buffy asked herself as she stalked into her last cemetery for her nightly patrol. ‘I don't want him. I don’t. Bad evil vampire. Then why have I thought of him coming for me every night for the last four days?’
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FOUR DAYS EARLIER

Spike stalked out of the school. ‘What is going on?’ He thought to himself. ‘Why didn't I drain the Slayer? I had the opportunity, bloody hell I had my fangs buried in her sweet neck.’

Spike stopped. He closed his eyes and saw an image of Buffy writhing against him having her pressed into the wall, he inhaled sharply and he scent was all around him. ‘Mmmm the way she moved her body. And the HEAT! Bloody hell. I want to shag that girl right now!’

‘She's the sodden slayer and I want her how sick is that? I’ve killed two bloody slayer’s before. Now I’ve gone and claimed one?’ Spike made his way to Willy's bar and drank himself into oblivion.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FOUR DAYS LATER

Buffy made her way home and went up to her room. ‘Saturday night and hardly any vamps. Weird.’ She thought as she took off all of her clothes and threw them in the hamper.

She grabbed her thick terrycloth robe and made her way to the bathroom. She brushed her thick golden hair to get rid of any tangles while the temperature of the shower adjusted. ‘Mmm hot shower, then sleep. I need to get my mind off him’ She thought stepping under the spray.

She soaped her hair with coconut shampoo and used her puff to scrub her body with vanilla scented body soap.

Toweling off she put her robe back on. She pulled the towel up around her hair and walked into her room. Buffy toweled out her hair, loving her after patrol ritual. She brushed her hair out quickly and crossed the room to her dresser.

She removed her robe and threw it across the top of her dresser. Opening the top drawer and pulling out a tiny white thong, She pulled them up over her tanned legs.

She opened the second drawer and pulled out a extra large baby blue T-shirt, the words 'BITE ME' emblazoned on the front in blood red. Xander's idea of a gag gift for their first Christmas as friends were her favorite PJ''S. She threw it on over her head.

Buffy felt a familiar tingle. It settled in the pit of her stomach butterflies flitting about. His mark was on fire, calling to him. Buffy closed her eyes and inhaled deeply. ‘Please give me strength to deal with this.’ She begged.

Buffy knew he was right outside her window. She turned and locked eyes with him, he sat in the tree outside her window his eyes filled with fire, deep dark passion.

Buffy was drawn forward. "What are you doing here?" She asked coolly.

"Told you I was coming for you Slayer." He growled seductively. "That an engraved invitation for me?" He asked indicating her shirt.

"You here to …to finish the job?" She asked looking into his deep blue orbs and ignoring the remark about her shirt. "And besides you told me that four fucking days ago Spike." She said angrily, turning her back on him.

"You kiss your mother with that mouth Slayer? Told you I didn't want to taste your blood when I came for you this time didn't I?" Spike asked raking his eyes at the hem of her shirt, barley covering her ass. "Come 'ere" He growled.

Buffy felt her body respond to his call, moisture rushing to her core, her blood pumping faster, her feet carrying her to him. ‘No…I can't he's an evil vampire…Fuck that. *He's* calling me. I want him. To hell with the consequences’ Buffy was at the windowsill leaning towards him.

Spike gently placed his lips on hers and gave her a gentle sensuous kiss. "Mmmm Slayer. I missed your scent, your heat." He whispered as he thrust his fingers into her hair and pulled her closer.

Buffy moaned in response. Spike reacted to her moans by pulling her lips to his and kissing her again. His tongue sought entrance to her mouth, and Buffy opened herself to him. Spike pulled away and looked into her eyes.

"Invite me in Slayer. I need you." He said softly, blue eyes locking with hers.

"I can't Spike…I…please …don't…" She trailed off as his hand slowly caressed her shoulder letting other hand trail a path over his mark.

"You forgetting you belong to me?" He asked.

"No…No…It's just that…my mom's not here …I don't want things to go too far…and I don't trust myself with you." She said softly, closing her eyes at the admission.

"You don't have to trust yourself with me Buffy, I promise you, I'll only go as far as you want me to…I just want to touch you, taste you kiss you…" He said seductively, while gently stroking her cheek with his thumb. ‘Why am I making promises to the bloody Slayer?’

"How can I trust you? You’re a vampire…" She asked with tears in her eyes.

"Shhhh sweetness, no reason for tears luv, I …won't hurt you I thought you understood that." Spike said softly. "I'll never hurt you…I …can't explain this feeling, I …god I just want you." Spike said wiping away the tears that had fallen down her cheeks.

"I want you too Spike but I'm not ready for…"

"Luv, I promise you…only what you're ready for…" Spike said

"Ok…Spike come in…" Buffy said softly moving out of the way to let him enter.

As soon as Spike crossed the threshold their bodies met, grinding and pushing against each other. "Buffy…I want to taste you Luv, Please…" Spike said lifting her up and depositing her on the bed.

Buffy leaned back on the bed. Spike picked up her foot and kissed the instep. "God woman even your tiny beautiful feet exude sex appeal." He growled softly.

Buffy was so aroused by this time she knew she had soaked through her panties. "You smell so…erotic…" Spike said. He trailed his tongue up her leg to her knee, which he gave a promising lick to. Spike drew his tongue up her thigh. The scent of her got stronger as he got closer to his goal.

Spike growled possessively and ripped her panties off. "Beautiful." He murmured taking in the sight of her aroused wet and swollen sex. ‘Almost drippin' she is, and I haven’t even...’ He thought to himself. He brought his finger in contact with her lips, he traced up one and down the other as she wriggled beneath his touch.

"Spike" She gasped when his finger barley brushed her clit. She shuddered under his touch.

"That feel good Kitten?" He asked seductively.

Buffy could only nod. Spike bent closer and blew a tiny puff of air against her. Buffy moaned out in pleasure. He lifted his finger to his mouth and tasted the wetness he had collected. "Sweetest nectar." He whispered.

He bent his head and licked the path his finger had just abandoned. He gently grazed his thumb over her clit. "Oh …oh God Spike." She screamed. The sensation he was creating in her body was making it come alive, for the very first time. She could feel her blood rushing through her veins calling to him.

Spike gently inserted a finger into her core. Buffy bucked against it, animal instinct taking over her body begging for release. Spike flicked his tongue repeatedly over her clit. "Please Spike …please I think I'm gonna…" Buffy lost the power of speech as the first wave crashed over her. Spike gently inserted another finger being, rubbing gently, on her g spot. He took her clit in his mouth and sucked gently.

Buffy screamed wildly and thrust her hips towards his suckling tongue. She dug her fingers into his hair to pull him closer and she felt herself gush. Spike growled softly at her release sending another wave crashing over her.

Spike slowly removed his fingers and stroked her stomach softly.

"That was…God that was…" Buffy stopped. She knew nothing could describe that.

"Want to be inside you…Buffy…please…" Spike moaned.

"Spike…I …I'm not ready…" Buffy said…"Could I just…you know with my mouth?" She asked shyly.

"Oh…yeah Baby." Spike moaned

"Could you…how…I've never…" Buffy stammered.

"Uh…oh yeah …I could stand up …or lay down on the bed…" Spike said seeing her hesitation.

"Uh…standing up? Could we try that first?" She asked.

"Yeah Kitten …of course…" Spike said standing and undoing his pants. Buffy got to her knees in front of him and grasped his thickness in her tiny hand, she could hardly fit her hand around him, he was so big. ‘Holy shit. That will never fit inside me.’ She thought panicky.

Spike noticed her hesitation. And wrapped his hand around hers he helped her to stroke him, gently at first then getting a little faster. ‘Yeah…just like that baby.’

Buffy leaned in and took the head in her mouth sucking and sliding in and out. "Bloody hell…yeah …oh yeah…so hot…so wet." He murmured pumping his hips slightly.

Buffy repeated what she had been doing. "Oh yeah…Buffy please…Luv, I can't stop…I'm gonna come…" Spike moaned. He tried to pull back but she grabbed his hips in both hands and pulled him closer. Keeping one hand on his hip she brought the other to his shaft and began stroking him again.

"Oh…Buffy…I'm gonna come …you want it in your mouth baby?" He panted.

"MMMhhhhhmmmm." She moaned. Feeling the vibration of her moan Spike couldn't hold back. He shot his cold seed into her mouth and screamed her name at his release.

Buffy gently let him out of her mouth. "Was that …was I ok?" She asked shyly looking up at him through her lashes. "Ok? OK? Bloody hell Woman…you are amazing." He growled fiercely. He pulled her up his body and kissed her passionately.

"Could we just lay down for a bit Pet? Wanna hold you a while." Spike asked anxiously.

"Spike…I …" Buffy murmured leaning against his chest.

"I promise…I'll be good Slayer, I just want to hold you…I'll even get dressed first…that be ok?"

"Yeah…I want you to hold me Spike." She smiled.

Buffy got into bed and waited. Spike joined her once he had his pants on and pulled her into his embrace. He stroked her back gently. "Don't know what it is about you I have never…in all my time on this earth felt this way about anyone." Spike murmured into her hair. "The lust and passion…you feel so bloody perfect in my arms."

"I know Spike. You fit my body perfectly." Buffy murmured sleepily.

"That's it baby…time for sleep. The Big Bad's got you now…there's only me and you." He sighed ‘If only that were true.’ Spike thought falling into a deep dreamless sleep.

"Yeah…I want you to hold me Spike." She smiled.

Buffy got into bed and waited. Spike joined her once he had his pants on and pulled her into his embrace. He stroked her back gently. "Don't know what it is about you I have never…in all my time on this earth felt this way about anyone." Spike murmured into her hair. "The lust and passion…you feel so bloody perfect in my arms."

"I know Spike. You fit my body perfectly." Buffy murmured sleepily.

"That's it baby…time for sleep. The Big Bad's got you now…there's only me and you." He sighed ‘If only that were true.’ Spike thought falling into a deep dreamless sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buffy startled awake and realized two things immediately. One Spike was still holding her, two she didn't want him to leave. She glanced at her alarm clock. ‘Shit four in the morning.’ She thought to herself, closing her eyes and inhaling Spike's sexy scent.

‘Tobacco, whiskey and leather. Spike.’ Buffy thought to herself smiling.

She looked up at him, moonlight shining on his pale skin, making him look marblesque. Spike didn't move. Didn't dare breath, if he inhaled her scent he knew he'd give himself away and she'd know he was awake. He was afraid she'd ask him to leave. He was not ready to let her go just yet.

Buffy tried to extract herself from his embrace. ‘Need a bathroom break.’ She thought

Spike growled possessively and pulled her closer when she tried to pull herself from his embrace. He inhaled her scent because he could no longer stop himself. ‘She smells amazing.’ He thought to himself.

"Spike…I have to go to the bathroom, and close the curtains, I don't want you to end up dusty in the morning." She whispered.

"You want me to stay?" Spike asked anxiously, feeling himself growing hard.

Buffy shivered at the anxious note in is voice. "Yeah I promise." She said softly kissing his shoulder before sitting up. ‘Crap. I didn't put any underwear back on after he ripped those other ones off of me. He could have done anything to me while I slept.’ Buffy shuddered involuntarily realizing she wanted him to have his way with her. The thought sent arousal rushing to her core.

Spike picked up the scent and pulled her against him, his lips searching for hers. "I have never wanted anyone the way I want you right now Buffy." He whispered in her ear. He traced his fingers gently down her back and up under the hem of her T-shirt.

"I…I'll be right back." Buffy said quietly. Pulling away from him.

"Hurry." He growled. “Need to have you in my arms.”

Buffy got unsteadily to her feet and made her way to the bathroom. She finished and splashed some cold water on her face. She quickly dried her face and hurried back to her room.

While she was gone Spike lifted her pillow to his face and inhaled, the scent lingering on her pillow only arousing him further. “Bloody hell. Never been this hard before.’ He placed her pillow back on the bed as she entered and his gaze raked over her exposed legs. ‘Want her. Need. Her.’ He thought lustfully.

Buffy went to her closet and pulled out an old comforter. She quickly went to the window and covered it. "It'll stay dark longer…" She trailed off.

"Luv, if I stay till sunrise…I can't leave…aversion to sunlight…" Spike said.

"I …I don't want you to leave." She said softly, vulnerability written all over her features.

"That a fact? Why don't you come on over here and tell me what you do want Kitten?" He asked in a low rumbling voice. Spike patted the bed beside himself.

‘It's now or never.’ She thought to herself. Buffy walked to the bed and stood beside it. She grabbed the hem of her shirt and pulled it over her head quickly. "I want you." She said huskily.

Spike growled and was on his knees on the bed in front of her before she could blink. ‘Amazing.’ He thought to himself becoming impossibly hard.

He ran his thumbs over both of her nipples causing them to pucker at his cool touch. "So bloody beautiful is what you are Buffy." He whispered. "You are a golden goddess. Want you so much." He moaned taking a nipple in his mouth and sucking gently, he grabbed her hand and lead it to his harness.

Buffy picked up his que and stroked him through his jeans. "Spike…I'm scared…I've never…"

"Shhh, it's ok Luv, promise I'll make it good for you." Spike said leaning in to kiss her. He gently pulled her towards himself and ran his hands over her shoulders and down her back.

Buffy's arms snaked around him. Spike pulled her into his lap, she straddled him and rubbed herself against him. "Take those off, take your jeans off Spike…please." She said desperately. "I want you inside me …please." She begged looking into the blue depths of his eyes.

He groaned. Spike was aroused by the erotic innocence of her gaze. "Oh…yeah baby." He growled flipping her onto the mattress and standing up at the foot of her bed. He popped the button and raked the zipper down.

Buffy licked her lips in anticipation. "How is that ever gonna fit inside me?" She asked timidly.

"Perfectly." Was his only reply as he viciously ripped the jeans down his legs, he stepped out of them never breaking eye contact with her.

His intense gaze on her face he crawled up the bed towards her kissing exposed flesh along the way. He gently stroked her sopping core and inserted two fingers deep inside. ‘So wet, so hot, so bloody tight. Mine.’

"Buffy …Luv are you sure? Are you ready for this? Cause there's no turning back…once I have you…" He trailed off, still gently moving his fingers in and out. “It’s not going to stop the wanting, I’ll need to be inside you all the time…”

"Oh…yeah Spike I'm sure. Please…please I want you inside me. I'm ready." Buffy moaned grinding her hips in time with his thrusting fingers. Spike gently brushed his thumb over her clit causing her to convulse and buck wildly. "Yeah…Oh …Spike." Buffy screamed as she came.

"Baby please…" Spike begged positioning at her slick entrance.

"Yeah…Spike need you inside me…" Buffy panted.

Spike grabbed her by the hips and tilted her towards himself. He gently pushed forward and found what he was looking for. He was inching slowly forward and met resistance.

"It hurts…" Buffy moaned.

"Sorry baby …so sorry…it'll be over soon Kitten then I promise you only pleasure." He whispered softly, looking into her eyes. Spike felt her Hymen break and smelled the blood it caused at the same time.

Buffy saw his eyes glow yellow and she arched into him turning her head and silently granting him access to his mark.

He could no longer contain himself. ‘Mine.’ He thought possessively. Spike's demon came out to claim his mate. He growled and plunged his fangs into her jugular and thrust all the way into her. He stopped when he was at the hilt and let her body adjust to his size.

Buffy felt his fangs enter her flesh and it instantly triggered her orgasm. She cried out in desperation as he thrust inside to the hilt. Buffy bucked her hips up into his thrust and stilled.

Spike slowly extracted his fangs from her jugular. He licked the wounds clean. "Mine." He growled against her hair thrusting into her savagely.

"Aahhh oh Spike…yeah like that…" Buffy screamed as another orgasm washed over her. "More…" She screamed as her quivering folds milked his hardness. "Ohhh Spike…" She moaned looking into his demon orbs.

‘Her blood and juices.’ Spike looked into her eyes, and came undone. "Gonna come Baby…come inside you." He growled thrusting faster.

Buffy matched his pace. "Yeah Spike…yeah please I want it…please come for me…come inside me…" Buffy panted grinding her hips into him.

Spike gently lowered his lips to hers and kissed her passionately, shooting his cold seed deep inside her womb, causing Buffy to come again.

Spike gently rested his forehead against hers and looked into her eyes. "I am never going to let you go Buffy." He whispered looking deep into her eyes. "You’re mine. You belong to me."

Buffy felt tears prickle her eyes. She closed them gently and took a deep breath. "That was the most intense thing I've ever felt." She whispered.

Spike turned them so they were facing each other on their sides, still buried deep inside her. Spike pulled her leg over his hip and put his arms around her to pull her close. "Sleep now sweetness…" He said softly kissing her temple.

Buffy closed her eyes and drifted off. Spike soon followed.

FOUR DAYS EARLIER

"Buffy? Are you even listening to me?" Joyce asked

"Yeah…I uh…sorry mom I zoned. Just thinking about what happened at the school." Buffy replied softly.

"Well I was telling you I am proud of you. I'm proud that you have the strength inside you to take charge and help people." Joyce smiled at her daughter pulling Buffy in for a hug.

"Thanks Mom. That means a lot." Buffy said.

"They're saying it was a gang on PCP! They're lying aren't they?" Joyce asked softly.

"Yeah mom they are totally lying." Buffy replied.

"This has something to do with you doesn't it? Something…I just can't put my finger on it." Joyce looked intently at her daughter. "Buffy please. Don't shut me out. I love you."

Buffy sighed. "I'm the slayer mom. I slay Vampires. I was chosen." She said wearily.

"What do you mean you were chosen? Why would you try out for something like that? Vampires? Buffy." Joyce said incredulously.

"I didn't try out mom. It's a thing. A real thing just like Vampires are real." Buffy said looking at her mother.

"No, no I would have heard…"

"Mom. Mom listen to me. We live in Sunnydale. It was built on a hell mouth. I am a Vampire Slayer."

"Buffy what?" Joyce shook her head. "What is a Slayer?" She asked skeptically.

"Into each generation a Slayer is born, one girl in all the world, a Chosen One, one born with the strength and skill to hunt the vampires to stop the spread of their evil blah, blah, blah..." Buffy said.

"Oh my god! That's why you got into all those fights in LA?" Joyce asked.

"Yeah. And why I burnt down the Gym. It was filled with Vampires." Buffy shrugged. "Whatever. I'm used to it."

"Oh…Oh Buffy, and I was so hard on you. I'm sorry sweetheart. If I would have known…" Joyce looked away in shame. "I'm sorry Buffy that I didn't know what you were doing. This makes me even more proud than I was before." Joyce said embracing Buffy tightly.

"So does this mean I'm not grounded?" Buffy asked hopefully.

"Of course not Buffy, as long as you do your homework and treat me with respect…you let me take care of that little weasel Snyder. I will not have him threatening you when you are saving the world from Vampires." Joyce said fiercely.

"Oh god Mom you can't tell him." Buffy said panicking.

"Don't worry. I won't. He and I have an understanding now. He told me he could see a mother-daughter resemblance after I called him an idiot.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spike made it back to the factory an hour before sunrise. He was so drunk his body moved on autopilot. He made it to the door and up to his room.

He went to his room and pulled off his jeans, stumbling and falling on his ass. Spike rolled over. His face landing on the crotch of his jeans. He caught a familiar scent.
‘Buffy.’ It was coming from his jeans. He sobered instantly.

Spike's Cock hardened in response when he lifted the material to his nose and inhaled sharply. ‘Bloody hell’ Dru would dust his ass if she caught the Slayers scent on him.

‘Crazy bitch anyway.’ Lately she'd been getting on his nerves whispering about her precious Daddy Angelus. ‘What a poufy haired Git.’ Spike thought angrily.

He put his jeans back on and left the factory. He quickly found a cheep motel and got a room. Spike went into the bathroom and took a shower with his clothes on. ‘Gotta get her scent off me.’ Spike thought angrily. ‘All of this is the Slayer's fault.’ Thinking of her caused him to harden again. He stroked himself roughly through the material of his jeans.

Spike popped the button open and raked the zipper down. He closed his eyes and pictured Dru, her long fingers wrapped around his shaft stroking him roughly while her nails dug into his shoulder. ‘Dru.’ In his mind she got on her knees and her hot little mouth encircled him ‘Hot?’ Spike thought, a picture of Buffy flashing unbidden to his mind.

He could hear her gasp as he ripped her panties off. Spike pumped faster imagining the shocked expression on her lust filled face when she came, pressed up against the wall rubbing her heat against him. "Buffy" He shouted as he spent his seed on the shower wall. ‘Bloody hell.’ He finished rinsing quickly.

Spike stepped out of the shower and removed his clothes. He hung them over the shower rod to dry and grabbed a thick towel to wrap around his waist. He lay down on the bed and fell into a troubled sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Three days before Spike arrived at Buffy’s

Buffy was at school the next day when she ran into Giles. "Buffy? Are you quite alright?" He asked placing a gentle hand on her shoulder.

"What? Yeah…fine. I was just thinking about my mom. We had a talk last night and I told her about my being the Slayer." Buffy said biting her bottom lip.

"You What?" Giles asked incredulously.

"I had to Giles. She practically forced it out of me. But it's all good. She understood Giles she really did. Things are going to be much better. It's going to be so much easier to patrol without having to lie to her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spike left the hotel as soon as the sun went down. He made it to the factory quickly entering his and Dru's bedroom. She was lying on the bed, eyes closed not moving.

"Dru? Pet I'm home." Spike said brightly.

"Ohhh Spike Mummy missed you. As did Miss Edith. Dreamed you were surrounded by heat I did. Swirling and whirling." Dru purred making her way to his side.


Dru cupped the back of Spike's neck in her hand and pulled him in for a kiss. "Who is she Spike?" Dru screeched breaking the kiss. "She's in your head. Push her out. No room for her! Only room for princess." She swayed back and forth on her feet. "You're my knight. I found you. You're my bright shining knight." She babbled.

"Course Princess only you." Spike scooped her up and carried her to the bed. He gently removed her dress softly caressing her flesh as he exposed it. "Missed you princess." He murmured softly pushing Dru down on the bed.

Spike knelt between her knees after removing his clothing and gently sheathed himself in her coolness.

Dru moaned in pleasure rocking slightly against him. "Missed you." She whispered wrapping her arms around him.

Spike buried his face in her hair and inhaled her scent. He pierced her flesh gently with his fangs and took a shallow pull. ~ Yeah. ~

Dru moaned in pleasure her cool walls milking him, telling him it was time. Spike increased his pace spilling his cold seed inside her. "Oh Spike." Dru whispered as she came clenching and unclenching around him.

Spike pulled out and moved to lay beside her. Dru let her fangs descend and bit into his shoulder. She took a deep pull on his blood. Dru recoiled from him as if he struck her and looked at him, horror written all over her face.

"What is it Pet?" He asked gently.

"You had her Spike. You had little Miss Muffett and you let her run away. You were supposed to drink her all up…" She trailed off.

"Dru, Princess…I …I didn't shag the Slayer if that's what you're…"

"Don't Spike. I think you should leave." Dru said quietly looking down at her hands.

"Dru …baby please…"

"Daddy will take care of me Spike…once he finds out he …he will come for me." Dru said with more confidence than she felt. "You need to leave. Now. I need you not to be here."

Spike got up and sullenly got dressed. He chanced one more glance at Dru. She sat on the bed staring at the ceiling seeing the stars and dreaming of her daddy coming for her. Tears rolling silently down her ears and into her hair.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Buffy…Please talk to me. Tell me what happened?" Angel was pleading.

"Look Angel I…told my mom everything. Well not everything but mostly everything. About me being a Slayer. I was freaked She was so cool about everything." Buffy said, a tiny smile tugging at the corner's of her mouth.

"Well that's good right?" He asked.

"Yeah." She whispered melting in to his embrace. Buffy stood on her tiptoes and Angel leaned Down. They kissed passionately. Desperately. Like teenager's in love.

"Can we…go back to your place?" She asked huskily. ‘Get my mind off another stupid vampire's parts touching and *rubbing* into mine.’ She thought moisture pooling between her legs.

"What? No Buffy you are sixteen years old." Angel replied heatedly. ‘I can smell how wet she is, how much she wants me…she smells so good. I want her.’ He pulled back from her. “We can’t Buffy…”

"Fine Angel, I don't know what you want anymore. You come find me when you figure it out ok? You already know how I feel. How do you feel?" She questioned. Buffy turned on her heal and left the cemetery quickly.

Nothing better than the blood of a Slayer_5

The morning after

Buffy felt tears prickle her eyes. She closed them gently and took a deep breath. "That was the most intense thing I've ever felt." She whispered.

Spike turned them so they were facing each other on their sides, still buried deep inside her. Spike pulled her leg over his hip and put his arms around her to pull her close. "Sleep now sweetness." He said softly kissing her temple.

Buffy closed her eyes and drifted off. Spike soon followed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buffy was dreaming. She was dreaming she was making love to Angel. She could feel him inside her. He was being very gentle, thrusting slowly. He purred quietly into her neck. Buffy rocked against him.

In her dream Buffy was on her side facing him. His hand was resting gently on her hip. Buffy arched into him and his thrusting increased.

He licked her neck gently, running his tongue over Spike's claim mark and hissed. He pulled back from her and looked into her eyes. "You let him claim you?" He asked quietly
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Spike was dreaming. He was dreaming he was making love to Dru. He could feel her around his hard cock. He was thrusting into her gently, moving slowly. He purred quietly into her neck. Dru was rocking against him.

In his dream Spike was on his side facing her. He was resting his hand gently on her hip. Dru arched into him and his thrusting increased.

She licked his neck roughly, sinking her fangs into his neck. She pulled back hissing. She looked into Spike's eyes. "You claimed her?" She asked quietly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buffy and Spike opened their eyes at the exact same moment. Staring at each other both startled from their dreams. Neither of them moved for a minute.

Spike realized he was still inside her and hard as hell. He thrust into her, digging his fingers into her hip.

"Spike.I .ohhh.I was dream…"

Spike cut off her words by kissing her hungrily shoving his tongue into her mouth. Buffy granted him access and sucked gently on his tongue. Spike pulled away and looked into her eyes.

Buffy could see the hunger in his eyes. His demon wanted out. He growled and pulled her up. "On your hands and knees, I want to fuck you from behind." He growled lustfully. Buffy complied and Spike thrust into her.

Buffy screamed as his cock hit her sweet spot. "Ohh Spike yeah harder .fuck me harder.please.please Spike.Oh.I'm gonna come.. ." Buffy moaned.

Spike grabbed her by the hips and pounded viciously into her. He slowed his pace and reached for her clit with one hand while grabbing her breast with his other hand.

"Yeah…oh yeah Bite me…please make me come.."

"Ohh..,yeah….you want me to taste your blood Buffy?" Spike asked her.

Spike let his fangs descend and bit into her shoulder. He suckled deeply and groaned. Her clenching around him and the scent of her blood made him lose control. He spilled his cold seed deep into her womb.

Buffy came hard as soon as his fangs tore into her flesh. He licked her wound clean and pulled out.

They spent the rest of the day in bed. In each other's arms. Dreading that soon with dusk, the real world would come crashing in on their little paradise.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buffy pulled on her coat. "So…now what? I go back to killing vampires and you go back to being one?" She asked flippantly, carefully keeping her back to him so he couldn’t see her face..

"What?" Spike asked.

"You know...you’re evil…I’m not…we’re mortal enemies…thing?" She could feel the tears threatening to spill. She pretended she was looking for something on her dresser.

"Look Slayer, I don't want to be your enemy…as long as you don't come after me and mine. And sweetness I have claimed you. You agreed to my claim so what the bloody hell is your problem?" Spike asked. "That means you belong to me. When I want you I have you simple as that."

"No Spike it's not that simple. You can't keep coming in and out of my life whenever you want to." Buffy said. She closed her eyes to hold back the tears.

"What is this Slayer? You don't tell me the conditions of my Claim, I tell you." Spike growled softly.

"I'm not trying to do that Spike I'm just…never mind. Go. See you whenever." She said waiving him off.

"Just what? What Buffy?" He asked coming around to the other side of the bed where she was standing. He could smell her freshly washed hair from the other side of the room and he wanted to run his fingers through it. Instead he reached out his hand and placed it on her shoulder. "Hey, what is it?" Spike asked gently turning her around to face him. “Talk to me Luv.”

Buffy looked into his eyes. ~ How am I supposed to do this? ~ "Spike...please...just leave it alone ok?" She said softly turning her eyes to the ground.

"Ok pet. I'll see you soon." He said and was gone. He knew something was wrong, but he knew if he pushed he’d never find out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buffy was in her third cemetery before she felt his presence. "How have you been?" He asked.

"Fine" She replied without turning around.

"Trying to catch a cold?" He asked

"What?" She questioned,

"Wet hair…outside…trying to catch a cold?" He asked again.

"Oh. No. I had a shower just before I left. I was in bed all day." She replied. ‘With Spike.’ She thought to herself, trying not to cry. "So did you come up with any answers?"

"I've done a lot of thinking…and I ." Angel was interrupted by three vamps approaching.

"Look. It's the Slayer and her pet Vampire." One of them shouted out.

Buffy stood her ground and waited. Angel lunged at the trio dusting two quickly. The third slipped past and as Buffy was about to hit him, he exploded into ash. Buffy's momentum carried her forward and the stake Angel was carrying embedded into her shoulder.

Buffy screamed in pain. A raw inhuman sound. She fell to her knees cradling her injured arm. Buffy closed her eyes and tried not to pass out from the pain.

Angel was thrown twenty feet away and bashed his head on a tombstone. Buffy could feel herself being lifted and carried, but she couldn't open her eyes. Before she could see who helped her she passed out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spike followed Buffy, all the way from her house. He watched her walk. ‘She's so graceful when she walks. A true warrior.’ He though to himself taking in her high heeled boots.

She was amazing when she walked yeah, but glorious when she fought. ‘Poetry in bloody motion.’ Spike thought as he watched her kick some stupid fledge's ass.

He followed her into the third cemetery when Spike saw Angel approach. He heard their whole conversation. He watched as Angel launched into the three vampire's and rolled his eyes.

Spike saw Angel stake the third vampire and he was off towards her in a dead run. He saw what was going to happen, her momentum, she couldn’t stop. He felt Buffy's scream of pain in his bones. It made him want to rip Angel apart with his bare hands.

Growling, Spike reached her in seconds. He grabbed Angel and threw him as hard as he could. Angel looked at him in shock as he sailed through the air. Spike watched Angel fall and heard the satisfying crunch of bone.

He picked up his mate and headed to the hotel room he'd stayed at five days ago.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dru was walking slowly. Stopping every few minutes to look up at the stars. "I know you'll lead me to Daddy." She kept murmuring every time she looked up.

The five minions that were with her stayed and did everything She asked of them. Spike told them to and to disobey him was to sign your dusty ending.

"Oh...Oh there he is!!! Go get my Daddy!" She commanded the nearest minion clapping and pointing at Angel.

"Get him for what?" He asked.

"So he can take care of me of course. He is my Daddy after all." Dru said turning her face to the stars, she closed her eyes and spun around and around until the minion and Angel were at her side. "Now…lets get home." Drusilla singsonged.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Nothing better than the blood of a Slayer_6


Spike cradled Buffy carefully in his arms holding her close to his chest. He walked quickly to the hotel.

Spike made sure he didn't jostle her too much. He nuzzled into her hair making soft whimpering sounds. He couldn't shake his demon off. ‘My Buffy.’ Was his only thought.

He opened the door and stepped through carefully, pushing the door shut behind them. He lay Buffy gently on the bed. Spike gently pulled her jacket and shirt off so he could see the wound better.

It looked bad. But it looked fixable too. He went to the desk and got supplies. Spike went to work silently. Buffy's wound was still bleeding slightly but it didn't go all the way through her shoulder.

By the amount of blood slowly seeping out Spike knew no vein or artery had been ripped open. He licked her wound carefully cleaning it of spilled blood.

Spike hovered over her until she began to stir. "Spike? Where am I? Where did Angel go?" She asked groggily.

Spike growled softly at the mention of his Sire's name on her lips. "He's the pillock who stabbed you don't know why you're askin’ about him." He growled, jealousy dripping from every syllable.

"I…I was with him and he accidentally got me when we went after the same Vampire. But he …I don't remember anything after that." She said looking up into his yellow eyes.

Spike crawled onto the bed and was by her side. He stroked her face lovingly. "If that git had just let you do your job you wouldn't have gotten hurt. I don't want you to see him anymore. Got that?" He asked. “You stay away from him.”

"Spike…he's my boyfriend you can't just …"

He words were cut off by Spike's animalistic growl of jealousy. "I am not askin' Slayer. You. Are. Not. To. See. Him. Any. More." Spike said with possessiveness dripping from every word.

Buffy could feel it radiating off of him in waves. "Spike…I can't just…wait around for whenever you come around. I …I want more than that. How can you ask me to give up what I have with Angel?"

"You have nothing with him from this moment on Buffy." Spike growled jealously.

"You are not going to tell me who I can and cannot see." Buffy said angrily.

"Really?" Spike said pulling back a little from Buffy.

"Yeah really. I will not be pushed around Spike. You come and go as you please and so will I." Buffy fumed.

Spike leaned in close to Buffy, gold eyes meeting green. "What if I asked you really nice Kitten?" He purred leaning in to kiss her softly.

Buffy responded to the kiss becoming instantly wet. She parted her lips under his and let him slide his tongue in her mouth.

Spike trailed his fingertips down her belly and let his tongue move down her throat. Buffy gasped. "Spike…please…we need to talk." Buffy said softly realizing for the first time her wound was bandaged.

"Talk later." He said capturing her mouth for another kiss. He undid her pants and let his hand dip down into her moist curls.

Buffy moaned and arched into him.

Spike quickly divested her of the rest of her clothing and kissed her gently again. "Do you want me Buffy?" He asked, his body coming to rest between her knees.

‘Always.’ She looked up at him. "Yeah. I want you…I want you inside me…please…" She panted.

Spike leaned in and gently thrust into her. "Ohhh yeah Spike…you know what I want that's what I want…yeah…" She moaned into his ear as he increased his pace.

Buffy arched into him and cupped his cheek in her palm. She looked deep into his eyes. The hunger reflected back at her sent her hurling off the edge into orgasmic bliss. She screamed his name repeatedly as wave after wave crashed over her knocking the breath from her lungs.

Buffy screaming his name made Spike lose all control. He thrust into her hard and erratically.

"Make me yours Buffy…" He whispered.

Buffy brought her lips to his neck and kissed him gently. She then sank her blunt teeth into his neck and drew blood. She suckled some into her mouth and swallowed. She licked the wound gently. "Mine." She growled into his ear.

Spike came the instant the word reached his ears. He was surprised by the passion he felt for this tiny woman writhing beneath him. "Oh Buffy…Luv." He moaned into her ear.

She could almost trick herself into believing he said what she wanted to hear. Almost.

"Make me yours Buffy…" He whispered.

Buffy brought her lips to his neck and kissed him gently. She then sank her blunt teeth into his neck and drew blood. She suckled some into her mouth and swallowed. She licked the wound gently. "Mine." She growled into his ear.

Spike came the instant the word reached his ears. He was surprised by the passion he felt for this tiny woman writhing beneath him. "Oh Buffy…Luv." He moaned into her ear.

She could almost trick herself into believing he said what she wanted to hear. Almost.
~~~~~`

Buffy awoke, she sensed she was alone in the hotel room. ‘I wonder where he went?’

Buffy opened her eyes and realized she could see, amazingly well in the dark, unlit room. Better than she ever had before. She flipped on the TV to see the time. ‘3 AM. Wow. I feel like I've slept for 12 hours not 2.’ She sighed to herself.

Buffy entered the bathroom and turned on the light. She was still naked except for the bandage on her shoulder. She gently removed the bandage and realized it was almost healed already. Buffy turned on the shower. When steam was rising thickly in the room she stepped into the shower.

She finished her shower quickly. Buffy dried herself off and got dressed. ‘Still no sign of Spike.’ She settled down on the bed to watch TV.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Earlier that night

Spike awoke wrapped around Buffy. He felt a wave of tenderness pass over him. He closed his eyes.

FLASHBACK ~ THREE DAYS EARLIER

Spike entered the factory minutes after the sun had set. . Dru was sitting at the table having tea with Miss Edith.

"I can see her Spike, all around you. I tasted her inside of you. She's taken my place." Dru moaned turning to look in his direction.

"Who? Miss Edith?" Spike asked truly baffled.

"The Slayer." Dru hissed.

"The Slayer could never take your place Princess." Spike said moving closer to his dark goddess. "I love you Dru…you know I do." Spike said confidently.

"Not nice to lie to Princess." Dru said sadly. "She floats there in your brain, like …like a golden butterfly, she calls to you, her blood, her scent. You will go to her." She pouted. "She is yours and Daddy will be mine. The king of cups will have his picnic after all."

END FLASHBACK

‘She calls to you, her blood, her scent. You will go to her.’ Spike heard Dru's Voice in his head. He recoiled from Buffy as if she had slapped him. ‘No…no I am not.’ Spike thought to himself. “All I want from this girl is to shag her senseless. But if that were true, why did I react the way I did when she mentioned Angel?’

Spike was growing more and more restless as the implication became clear. ‘I don't want to give up Dru. I love her. Spent over 100 years with my Dark Princess.’ He quickly pulled on his clothes and was out the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buffy could sense him approach as soon as he entered the lobby. She could feel the white hot need in her bones. She could feel his blood calling to her. "Spike" She sighed softly, unconsciously.

Spike walked into the lobby on his way to their room. He could feel her calling to him, her blood begging him to comply, to take her. Now. Spike stopped outside the door. He closed his eyes and inhaled. "Buffy" He whispered.

Her scent was still all over him. ‘Got me hard as nails knowing what's on the other side of that door waiting for me.’ Spike listened quietly and could hear her heart beating through the door, begging him to enter the room, to touch her. ~ Gotta touch her. ~

Spike turned the knob and pushed the door open. He saw her immediately and saw the hunger in her eyes. The desire between them was like white hot fire burning everything in it's path until there was nothing but each other.

Spike dropped his package and shut the door softly. "You stayed." It was a statement.

"Where'd you go?" Pleading hungry eyes bore into his. He could feel the lust radiating off of her in waves.

"Had to…get you…food." Spike panted. He was tensed, ready. It took all of his self-control to not spring at her and rip her clothing from her body. She had, of course put on the same clothes she had been wearing last night. Her shirt was ripped at the shoulder and he could see the puckered pink flesh where it was healing, dried blood clinging to the fabric.

Buffy waited staring at him with wide innocent eyes.

"Want you…Need to be inside of you." He growled.

Buffy felt her knees get weak. Her brain overloaded with desire. She moved her eyes over his body. "Come get me." She said huskily leaning back against the wall.

Spike stalked her slowly. A low growl emanating from deep within his chest.

Buffy felt the moisture soaking her panties, she crawled over the bed quickly escaping him. "Buffy." He growled. "Stop."

She felt her body obeying her words. She held stock-still and he was at her side instantly.

"Gotta touch you Luv." He murmured into her ear. "I can't …I can't wait…"

Buffy undid her pants and pushed them down to her knees. She bent over the bed and placed her hands upon it's surface. She looked over her shoulder at Spike.

He was shaking with need, his body almost buzzing with the desire he felt. He stepped up behind her and paused at her soaked core. "I have never wanted anyone or anything as much as I want you at this moment Buffy…I know I keep saying that, but the more I’m with you the truer it becomes." He whispered as he thrust into her.

Buffy heard his words and felt him enter her. She was elated.
~~~~`

"I have to see her Dru, You can't keep me from her." Angel roared. "Spike has done something to her I know it. He's the one who knocked me out. He came flying out of nowhere. I know he was waiting for an opportunity when she was hurt, to kill her." He looked up at her from his seat in the wheelchair.

"Daddy, why do you think it is that Spike was so angry that he threw you that far?" Dru asked.

"He wasn't angry Dru, he came at me all fangy and when he turned to her I know his demon was in the forefront." Angel replied

"He claimed her Angel. He was protecting his mate." Drucilla said softly looking right into his eyes. "I saw it Angel, I saw the whole thing. He loves her and I let him go." She said in a moment of true clarity.

"No. NO. I don't believe you. You just want to keep me here. You lying Bitch." He screamed at her rolling closer.

"Of course I want you with me Daddy. You take the pain away. I am broken, but you can fix me." She said grinning insanely.

"Dru …I need to see her…I need to see it with my own eyes." He said softly.

"Angel…some things are meant to be…fated. Spike has a story…and now the Slayer is a part of it. Let destiny live." She murmured. She picked up his hand and gently bit into his wrist.

Angel screamed as the visions started.
~~~~~`
Spike grabbed Buffy's shirt between his hands and ripped it apart. "Need to feel your flesh." He growled against her shoulder.

Buffy thrust back into him. "Spike…I want…to…look into your eyes." She panted.

Spike grabbed her pants and tore them off of her at the seams.

He flipped her on the bed and slammed into her again.

Buffy thrust her hips up into him. She screamed his name. She arched her back and turned her face away to grant him access to her blood.

Spike was instantly on her licking and nipping at her flesh making her tremble with anticipation. He licked a path up her neck and ran one hand over her hip. He tilted her face towards him and looked deep into her eyes. "You amaze me Buffy." He said softly, his human visage overtaking his features.

"Say it again Spike…I like when you say my name while you're inside me."

"Buffy…Oh yeah Buffy…Buffy." Spike whispered reverently staring into her hazel depths. ‘I can almost see myself in her eyes.’

"Spike please…taste me…taste my blood." She turned her head again.

Spike bent his head and kissed her neck gently. "Buffy I …your scent…is intoxicating. You call to me." He whispered.

Spike plunged his fangs into her neck.

‘Oh. That was Perfect. The perfect thing to say. Only one thing could have made it better.’ Buffy thought.

"I love you." He whispered as he removed his fangs from her neck.

Buffy screamed as wave after wave came crashing over her. "I love you." She whispered as she came back to earth.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buffy stretched her body out alongside Spike's. "Mmmm feels good to be here. In your arms." She sighed contentedly.

"Glad you're comfy Slayer, you have to stay all day. Unless you're gonna steal my clothes." Spike smirked at her. "May raise a few eyebrows at that Luv." He whispered softly kissing her forehead.

"Yeah…you did a pretty good job shredding my clothes." She giggled into him. "I'm glad I have an excuse to stay." She whispered.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Nothing better than the blood of a Slayer_8

"Glad you're comfy Slayer, you have to stay all day. Unless you're gonna steal my clothes." Spike smirked at her. "May raise a few eyebrows at that Luv." He whispered softly kissing her forehead.

"Yeah...you did a pretty good job shredding my clothes." She giggled into him. "I'm glad I have an excuse to stay." She whispered.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Spike walked through the department store looking for something Buffy would wear.

‘Just something to get her home so she can get into her own clothes.’ It was as he finished that thought that Spike spotted the lingerie section. ‘Slayer needs new knickers too.’ He smiled happily too himself.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Buffy was pacing. ‘Where the hell is he? He left two hours ago. It can't take that long to pick out a pair of sweats and a T-shirt.’

She felt it. The tremors that ran through her were signaling Spike's return. The sweet way his mark tingled as the butterflies raced around in her stomach. ‘Spike.’ Buffy forgot her mental rant the instant she felt him.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Spike strode through the lobby towards his room. ‘Slayer.’ He thought with savage hunger. ‘Buffy.’

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Buffy was almost panting by the time Spike made it to the door. She could feel him on the other side magnetically pulling her towards the closed door. Calling her through their bond. She was only a few feet away when Spike threw the door wide.

‘Naked Buffy.’ He dropped his packages as she launched herself at him, wrapping her legs around his waist and kissing him hard on the mouth. Her tongue sought his hungrily and he growled softly against her. He kicked behind himself and slammed the door shut.

Buffy bucked her hips wildly into him. Spike grabbed her ass and thrust against her. Spike walked slowly forward until he had her pressed gently against the wall. He reached under her ass and unzipped himself.

Spike slid the head of his cock past her swollen wet lips and almost lost control. He rested his head against her shoulder and inhaled her scent. "You remember that night? At the school?" He asked.

"Yeah..." She breathed. "First time you ever..." She gasped as he traced his claim with the wet tip of his tongue.

"I thought I wanted to be inside you then ...before I ever was ...oh god Buffy...If only I would have known...I always want to be inside you." Spike thrust into her quivering folds to the hilt.

He ground his pelvis against her until she cried out. Spike pulled slowly out and thrust in again. Buffy ground herself into him. They were moving slowly, looking into each other's eyes.

"Buffy....I love you...you are everything to me." He whispered.

"Spike...I love you too...Oh...yeah...ohhhh. You are everything to me too....love you so much..." She cried out as she came, clenching her milky folds around Spike and sending him crashing into his bliss.

Spike kissed her softly. "You are...perfection." He said softly.

"Spike...."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"I have to go Spike...I have to go home." Buffy groaned softly. She was wrapped around Spike gently rubbing her fingers over his chest. "Thank you for my new clothes." Buffy said softly looking down at the blue jeans and gray tank top he had picked out. ‘Perfect fit.’ "I'm glad I have something to wear home. How'd you know my size?" She smiled looking into his eyes.

"I’ve felt every inch of you luv. I could mould you from clay." He said simply.

Buffy almost melted against him at his words. She shook her head slightly. "I don't want to go…but I have to..." She whispered.

"I know. I have some stuff to do myself. Am I going to see you tonight?" He asked looking into her eyes.

"Yeah...well I hope so. It depends on how much trouble I'm in for not checking in with Giles." Buffy replied looking into his blue orbs. She kissed him softly. "I hope I see you later." She got out of bed and got dressed.

Buffy trudged home. Each step she took away from Spike was making her more and more miserable. ‘I can go back there. Turn around and...No. I have to go home and face the music.’ Buffy didn't realize she hadn't thought of Angel all day.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It was two hours after dusk when Spike walked through the door. "I'm home Princess." He shouted as he strode through the factory.

"Spike? Spike what are you doing here?" Dru asked coming through the door to see him.

"Thought you'd be happy to see me Princess." He smiled at her.

"No Spike. I am not happy. Daddy doesn't love princess anymore." She pouted. "But he will. When he accepts the fact that the Slayer is meant to be with you he will fix me. He will restore me." She said dreamily.

"What do you mean Dru? What do you mean I am meant to be with her?" Spike questioned.

"Can't you hear her calling to you Spike. It will always be her. Her blood…her desire hunting you down. I can feel it. I can feel her crying out for you." She whispered looking into his eyes. "It is and was meant to be Spike. All of it. There is a destiny for you and the Slayer." Dru sought the floor with her eyes and a tear trickled down her pale cheek.

"What do you mean Dru?" Spike questioned grabbing her roughly by the shoulders.

"I thought you were my knight Spike. I was wrong. You were meant for her all along." Dru whispered.

"Where the hell is she Spike?" Angel growled from the other side of the room.

Spike turned his way and couldn't resist a chuckle.

"I asked you a question!" Angel fumed in the blonde vampire's direction. "Where is Buffy?"

"I donno mate. I don't keep tabs on 'er. Isn't that her watchers job?" Spike asked cocking his head to the side and Smirking at Angel.

"Don't mock me Boy." Angel growled in warning.

"Go mock yourself." Spike smirked again.

Angel rolled towards him trying to be menacing.

"Angel...listen mate I wasn't scared of you when you had the use of your whole body. What makes you think I'm quakin in my stylish Doc's now that you're rolling around in that contraption?" Spike asked full of merriment. ‘Just what he deserves. Has to take care of Dru. No choice, can't leave. Has to take care of her. Like she wanted. Like she said.’

"Guess it looks like I came to say goodbye. I'm movin up in the world. Gonna get me a nice respectable place. Somewhere I can take her, make love to her." Spike smiled devilishly.

"No teasing Daddy Spike. It's not nice." Dru wailed clutching at her head.

"Dru...Pet you ok?" Spike asked placing a gentle arm around her and leading her to the couch. "Is it a bad one Luv?"

""What? Is it a bad what?" Angel asked forgetting for a moment.

"A vision dumbass. Dru is having a vision." Spike said sarcastically.

"Ohhhh....Spike....So bright and shinny...all wrong I ....the sun is shining oh Spike not ashes no...gone and back again." Dru screamed shrilly. Her eyes rolled back in her head and she passed out cold.

Spike lay her gently in his lap and petted her hair softly. "You have to learn to help her Angel. When she's like this.... Promise me you'll help her." Spike said compassion etched onto his face. "You did this to her mate. You broke her mind. She needs you to help her fix it. You're the only one that can." He said passionately. "I tried to help her...but it wasn't enough. She needed you. Now that you have the chance...now that you're all soul having and you have a conscious...she's the one you should help."

Angel nodded solemnly. "I can smell Buffy all over you. You come to throw that in my face?" He asked looking up into Spike's eyes.

"No...I came to check on Dru. I care about her. I love her, I was with her for over 100 years. I can't just ...walk away." Spike said softly.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Buffy ran into the house and picked up the phone on the fourth ring. "Hello?" She panted into the phone.

"Buffy I need to talk to you." Giles said quickly

"Ohhh soothing words Giles." Buffy giggled into the phone.

"Buffy this is serious..." Giles admonished.

"It always is Giles. What's the what." Buffy asked twirling the phone cord in her fingers.

"It's about Angel." He said softly "I have recently discovered things that terrify me Buffy. Especially in light of your recent behavior in staying out all night without letting anyone know what was happening, Where you were." Giles said.

"What do you mean Giles?" She asked innocently.

"Buffy don't be coy. We can not afford it. Your...Your relationship with him may very well be putting you both in danger. He is cursed with his soul Buffy, if he experiences one moment of...of...of pure happiness...he will lose his soul." Giles said passionately Buffy could hear him polishing his glasses across the phone lines, She could practically see his cheeks flaming scarlet.

"Giles...trust me you have nothing to worry about where Angel is concerned. We ...we broke up...at least I think we did...I ...I think I broke up with him...well I won't be seeing him anymore, anyhow." Buffy said firmly.

"Well I do hope you know what you're talking about." Giles replied replacing his glasses atop his nose. "Your friends and I will patrol with you for the next few nights...just to be sure Angel...got the message...his history suggests he does not give up easy when he is determined about something." Giles said softly.

‘No...When am I gonna see Spike?’ She cringed. "Oh...uh yeah that would be ...great Giles...lots of help. As always." Buffy tried to sound happy. ‘Crap!!! Spike is not going to like this. No, not at all.’ Buffy thought to herself.

‘I hope she likes this place.’ Spike thought taking a look around. ‘Gotta furnish the place before I bring her here. Definitely need a bed first.’ He walked out the door and locked it behind himself.

‘Keys! I have sodden KEYS now because of that chit.’ Spike thought smiling to himself. He detoured from his original destination and ended up at Willy's. ‘Bloody hell. Maybe I should get a drink. Long as I'm here.’

"Come on Buffy! Giles and Xander have been waiting downstairs for over 20 minutes. It's not like you didn't know we were coming." Willow grumbled.

"I know Will, I just…there's stuff…major stuff that's been …that I've been…"

"Buff? Hey you ready or what?" Xander asked knocking lightly and throwing the door wide. "Hey…uh if I didn't know any better…I'd think you were talking about me…but I know…not gonna happen…did I interrupt something?" He jokingly asked.

"No Xan…I was just telling Willow…you know girly stuff…" Buffy looked away.

"Oh…Uh…I'll just…be downstairs…." Xander muttered and headed for the door.

"We'll be right down…" Buffy said smiling gratefully at him.

"No problem take your time." Xander said shutting the door behind him.

"Listen Will…we don't have time to talk now…after patrol I'll walk you home and we can talk ok?" Buffy asked.

Willow nodded and they joined the boys in the living room.

"Sodden bint. Need her? Don't bloody well need anybody." Spike muttered to himself as he nursed his drink.

"Spike? Hey Spike! Buddy how's it going?" Clem asked approaching his friend cautiously, judging his mood. ‘Spike can be cranky sometimes.’ He thought defensively.

"Clem, how's it hangin'?" Spike asked laughing at his own joke. He was feeling really good right now. Clear head. ‘Yeah. Away from her and I can think rationally.’ He pushed a stool towards his friend. "Hey Clem…feel like shopping?" Spike asked.

"Shopping? For what?" Clem asked

"Furniture, TV, a bed….I donno…." Spike shrugged.

"Yeah man…did you get a place?" Clem asked. "I mean away from that factory…"

"Yeah I've got a place. Bought myself a house. I just need to furnish it now." Spike shrugged again. "I just …I just want it to be livable…"

"Ok Man…let's go right now." Clem said getting to his feet.

They were walking through the second cemetery when Buffy felt the hair on the back of her neck raise. She stopped suddenly almost making Willow, who was following closely, crash into her.

"Buffy?" Willow whispered.

Buffy raised her hand signaling quiet. She closed her eyes and inhaled. ‘Vampires. Four of them. Not Spike.’ Buffy motioned her friends' back.

She walked slowly, stalking their scents. Their every step giving away their position. Buffy's friends watched from 25 feet away as the vampires came into the clearing. They all stared mouths agape at the viciousness the slayer displayed.

Buffy growled deep in her throat and lunged at the closest vamp dusting him quickly. The second she punched in the face sending him flying into the third. A carefully aimed stake through the fourth ones heart had him exploding to dust in seconds.

Buffy felt the adrenaline coursing through her veins, making ever kick and punch stronger. Her muscles were screaming to be used, exercised. Slamming her fist into a vamp she sent him flying through the air. The other one lunged at her and Buffy let out an inhuman growl. She grabbed his arm and pulled him toward her connecting punch. Buffy felt a shudder of satisfaction rush through her as he screamed in pain.

"Wh…wh…what are you?" The vampire asked her blood pouring from his mouth.

"I am the Slayer" She growled thrusting her stake through his heart. Buffy smiled in satisfaction and turned to where the other vampire lay still. She stalked over to him and growled punching him viciously in the face. She drew her arm back and plunged the stake in his heart.

"…uffy…are you ok? …Buffy?" Willow asked as they all ran up to join her.

Willow's eyes nearly fell from their sockets when Buffy turned to face her best friend.

"How soon can you deliver it Luv?" Spike asked the sales girl seductively.

"Uh…yeah…it could be there tomorrow afternoon…would that be ok?" She asked blushing desperately.

"Yeah…that would be fine Pet." He smiled winningly. "I'd like to take the drapes and blankets now though…that be ok?"

"Sure…anything else?" She asked softly.

"Some candles?" Spike asked "Big pillar ones…you know three wicks …scented…What kind of scent do you find sexy pet?" Spike inquired.

"Oh…I…uh…I like cinnamon." She replied blushing all the way to her roots.

"Yeah…cinnamon and Vanilla too." Spike replied picking out 10 of them from the pile she showed him.

"Thanks Pet." Spike smiled winningly taking the packages he had just purchased.
Spike carried his parcels all the way home and hung his curtains. He made a nice soft bed on the living room floor. He cuddled up and fell into a deep sleep. Spike dreamt of Buffy.

"Buffy what's wrong with you today?" Willow asked her friend. "You went after those vamps so viciously…and violently."

"Oh…I …well see here's the thing Will…that's never happened before…I just …I donno…I think it may be connected with the other stuff."

"What other stuff Buffy? What's …"

"Willow…I …"

"Willow…bedtime." Her mom said knocking quietly on the door.

"I'll talk to you tomorrow…" Buff whispered as she took off out of Willow's window.

‘Crap. Willow and her strict mom. I wanted to talk to her. I need to tell someone what's going on with Spike.’ Buffy thought to herself miserably.

Willow hid under her covers and waited for him to pick up. She held the receiver to her ear and counted the rings.

"Hello?" He picked up on the fifth ring.

"Yeah she just left. Did you see it Giles? Did you see her eyes? What the hell was that?" She whispered.

"I don't know Willow but believe me I will find out." Giles said softly. "Listen you get some sleep Willow…I'll talk to you tomorrow."

"Ok Night Giles." Willow murmured softly.

Buffy quickly finished her shower and got into bed. She lay quietly for a few minutes and drifted off to sleep. Buffy didn't realize as she slept her body called out to him. His mark burned for his touch. Buffy unconsciously rubbed his mark and sighed softly in her sleep.

'Spike. I need you.' He heard her say it. Right next to him. Her hot breath tickling his ear. Spike felt a sexual thrill rip up and down his spine. He shuddered involuntarily.

‘Buffy.’ Spike thought suddenly wide-awake. He had a raging hard on. ‘I'm coming for you baby.’

Buffy quickly finished her shower and got into bed. She lay quietly for a few minutes and drifted off to sleep. She didn't realize as she slept her body called out to him. The mark he had left on her neck burned for his touch. Buffy unconsciously rubbed it and sighed softly in her sleep.

'Spike. I need you.' He heard her say it. Her hot breath tickling his ear. Spike felt a sexual thrill rip up and down his spine. He shuddered involuntarily.

‘Buffy.’ Spike thought suddenly wide-awake. He had a raging hard on. ‘I'm coming for you baby.’ Spike quickly dressed and left his new digs in search of his woman.

‘No! Oh no. Buffy…I'm going to KILL Angel for doing this to her.’ Giles thought wildly. He closed the book he had been reading and rubbed a weary hand over his tired eyes.

Buffy awoke suddenly. His mark tingled. She felt the tingles and butterflies that signaled her Vampire's approach. Buffy felt a sexual thrill race through her.

‘He's here. Spike. He came for me.’ She thought grinning like a Cheshire cat.

Spike climbed up the tree to Buffy's window. He could feel Buffy. She was calling to him. Her body, her blood, her essence, she wanted him. NOW.

He peered in the window and she was there. At the window pulling it open. She growled softly, her desire evident. Spike could see the hunger and anticipation burning in her eyes.

He climbed over the windowsill and took a deep unneeded breath. He inhaled sharply and her scent coated his nostrils. Grunting he grabbed Buffy crushing her mouth with his. He pulled her flush against him, grinding his pelvis into hers.

"Buffy…" Spike whispered reverently stroking her back with one hand while running his fingers through her hair with the other. Spike pulled her in for another searing kiss. "I…Buffy…I…can't stay away from you…I know how wrong it is but I don't care." Spike whispered desperately. "I want you all the bloody time…" Buffy closed her eyes listening to the rhythm of his words, softly whispered to her.

‘This is what it feels like to be worshiped.’

"Look at me! I ... love you. You're all I bloody think about. Dream about. You're in my gut ... my throat ... I'm drowning in you, Summers, I'm drowning in you." Spike whispered looking into her eyes.

Buffy felt tears rush to her eyes. "I love you so much Spike…I never thought I …I've never felt this way before…I need you…I can't imagine life without you…" Buffy whispered leaning her forehead on his.

Spike slowly pulled her nightshirt over her head, realizing she was completely naked underneath. "You're bloody perfect!" He moaned stroking his fingers over her stomach. "So bloody perfect." Spike fell to his knees and worshiped her cleft with his tongue.

"Oh Spike…. Yeah…" Buffy moaned softly thrusting her fingers into Spike's already unruly hair. She pulled him closer and tilted her hips towards him. Spike grabbed her by the hips and slowly pushed her to walk backwards. Buffy's legs brushed against the bed and Spike gently pushed her down on the bed so she was lying across it. He spread her legs gently and placed his tongue at her core. He licked gently stroking her slit with his tongue.

Spike gently placed two fingers inside her and quickly found her sweet spot. He slowly suckled her clit into his mouth and sucked softly. Buffy arched her hips and came hard screaming his name.

Spike gently removed his fingers and licked them clean. "Your taste is exquisite Luv." He murmured.

"Spike…I want you inside me…" She panted softly. Buffy moved lengthwise on the bed. She looked directly into his eyes and spread her legs invitingly.

Spike looked at her glistening core and quickly divested himself of his clothing. Buffy watched him undress lustfully.

Spike tentatively kissed her knee. He moved upward placing a chaste kiss on her mound. Spike licked softly at her belly and Buffy arched into him. "Yeah…" He wasted no more time when she moaned that one simple word. He placed himself at her entrance. Spike pushed in slowly.

They arched together and moved into perfect synch. Buffy turned her head invitingly, exposing Spike's mark. Spike sank his fangs into her soft flesh moaning in pleasure. Buffy came instantly as his fangs entered her neck, her milky folds engulfing and squeezing Spikes hardness.

Spike cried out in pleasure. "Mine." He growled as he quickly licked her wounds clean. "Love you so much Buffy…" He whispered.

Buffy felt elated and aroused again instantly at his words. She flipped him so she was on top and ground herself into him. She was desperate. Ravenous for him. Savage. She kissed him aggressively on the lips and languidly trailed her lips to the place where she marked him.

Buffy's eyes flashed yellow and she broke Spike's neck open with her blunt teeth. "Mine." She growled while licking the blood from his neck. Spike couldn't contain himself and his seed shot deep within her. Spike's cold seed causing her womb to contract making her come again.

Buffy pulled back a little and looked into his eyes, with hers still yellow. Spike grew instantly hard and flipped her over. He moaned gutturally grunting and thrusting desperately. Their animalistic coupling was quickly pushing Buffy over the edge again.

"AAHhh Spike yeah…" She growled softly in his ear. " Spike. I need you." The words from his dream causing his sac to tighten and his seed to spill into her again.

Giles awoke at 6:30 AM and called Willow immediately. "Willow?" He almost screamed into the phone. She had picked up after the fifth ring.

"Giles? What is it? I don't have to be up for…." She glanced at her alarm clock and groaned softly. "Another hour and a half!!" Willow admonished groggily still trying to wake up.

"Oh…yes well…I thought you ….it's Buffy…" Giles said

"What? What is it?" She asked coming instantly awake.

"Angel must have claimed her, and had her claim him as well." Giles said poignantly.

"No! Giles she wouldn't let him…do that…" Willow said.

"But Willow…it explains why she was so…vicious…and her eyes…the yellow vampire eyes…She'd have to have claimed him too …the blood transference thing. It…it gives her some vampire abilities. And it's the only explanation. We have to talk to her."

"Giles she was saying weird stuff was going on …but we didn't have time to talk…we're supposed to get together and talk today. I should…talk to her see if she tells me anything. You know what she's like if we confront her she'll…"

"Well yes I agree Willow, it's an excellent plan. Talk to her and let me know. I'm going to research some more." Giles said polishing his glasses.

"It's going to happen soon." Dru whispered sadly, tears falling unbidden on her dress. It was already soaked through with her tears.

"What is Dru?" Angel asked his constant companion.

"My Spike will be gone and hers will replace him." She whispered.

"What?" Angel asked.

"I'm hungry Daddy…" She said looking into Angel's eyes. He knew he couldn't get her to talk if she didn't want to.

"Minions!" He yelled, "Dru is hungry. Bring her someone."

"Oh thank you Daddy!!" She squealed clapping her hands as a young football player was tossed at her feet.

Dru vamped and sank her fangs into his young neck. She drained him and carelessly tossed his body to the floor. "Clean that up!" She growled at the closest minion.

He rushed to do her bidding. "Daddy…?" Dru asked looking at Angel through her lashes.

"Yes Dru?" He asked. Angel closed his eyes and sighed softly.

"Will you sit by my bed tonight? Help me keep the nasty nightmares away?" She begged.

"Me?" He asked incredulously. "Why would you want me?"

"Yes you silly Daddy…you are the cause of them, you hold the key." She said simply.

"I caused them?" He asked quietly.

"Angel. You murdered my family in front of me. As if that wasn't enough, you turned me into a monster." Dru sobbed quietly. "You hurt me Daddy."

"I'm sorry Dru." Angel said softly. "Come?" He asked holding out his arms.

Dru crawled into his lap. She rested her head on his shoulder and quieted. Angel gently wiped her tears. "I am so sorry I did that Dru. I truly didn't know better at the time." He whispered stroking her shining black hair.

"Sometimes the pain was delicious Angel." She whispered rubbing her bottom against him.

"Dru…Dru please…we can't…you're not well" Angel groaned. He tiled her head up so he could see into her eyes.

"Soon…soon I will be well again." She whispered closing her eyes. Dru rested her head on his shoulder again and sighed softly.

Angel stroked her back gently thinking of all the ways he had destroyed this beautiful girl. ‘Yeah...if I owe anyone, it's her.’ Angel thought closing his eyes and inhaling her scent.

Buffy awoke draped around Spike. The phone was ringing and she grabbed it quickly. "Hello?"

"Hey Buffy…we still meeting for brunch?" Willow asked brightly.

"Oh…uh yeah…I'll be there in half an hour." She replied quickly. "See you then." She said quickly as she slammed down the receiver. ‘Shit.’ "Spike…Spike…I've got to go meet Willow…"

"I'll be here when you get back." He murmured barley opening one eye. "I'll miss you." He whispered when she leaned down to kiss him softly on the cheek.

"I'll miss you too." She said softly already halfway off the bed. She dressed quickly and was off to meet her best friend.

Buffy twirled her curly fry in the air as she told Willow what had been happening with Spike. She left out most of the details and only told her what she needed to know. – She was in love with Spike and he was in love with her. They had made love. They were drawn to each other sexually. And it was strong. Really strong.–

"Buffy…have you claimed each other?" Willow asked.

"Oh my god Will…how did you know?" Buffy asked her eyes as wide as saucers.
