 Chapter 14 – Leather

 

 

 

Buffy knew Spike was faking. She leaned over his prostrate form and moved the ice bag so she could see his eyes. He groaned, rubbed his forehead and moved it back.

 

“It still hurts, doesn’t it, baby?” Buffy cooed, her fingers drifting down his chest. “I’m so proud of you though. You’re my hero.” She kissed him on the cheek while her hand moved to cup him. “I think you deserve a special reward for what you did.”

 

Spike nodded. “Oww, shouldn’t have done that,” he muttered. His eyes opened and Buffy fluttered her eyelashes at him. “Would you lamb? I think it’d make me feel a whole lot better.”

 

“Are you sure it won’t hurt you more?” Buffy asked, undoing his belt buckle. “I don’t want to do anything to set the chip off again.”

 

“It won’t,” Spike promised, his hand resting on her shoulder.

 

Buffy slowly undid his zipper and straddled his thighs. “I just hope that my wittle Spikey is feeling better by tonight so you can go to Tara’s party with all our friends.” She caressed his hardening length, tilted her head and looked up at him. “No, no, we can’t do anything. The birthday girl will be so disappointed if you don’t show. You need to rest.” She crawled off of him and sat cross-legged beside him.

 

“Pet,” Spike whined. “Please…come on. I was a hero today. You said so.”

 

“Yes, yes, I did,” Buffy whispered, stroking his chest. “And I really should give you whatever you want.” She waited until he relaxed with a grin teasing the corner of his mouth. Take this faker. And she twisted his nipple.

 

“Bloody hell, woman,” Spike yelled, sitting up and rubbing his offended body part. “What did you do that for?”

 

Buffy giggled and scooted away from him. “You were faking to get sympathy and a blow job.” She wagged her finger back and forth. “That wasn’t nice.”

 

He wrapped his arm around her leg and pulled so she fell onto her back. Buffy kept giggling even as Spike switched to vampire guise and pretended to attack her. He deserved the praise he’d been hustling for; after all he’d proven that Tara wasn’t a demon and had set his chip off in the process. It was just after hours of him complaining about his head that Buffy decided enough was enough. This was more fun anyway, she decided as she fought back, and the ‘attack’ quickly became a wrestling match that was nothing more than an excuse for some groping and feeling as they rolled around.

 

“Hello,” Angel said, appearing at the end of the bed. He dropped his suitcase and a shopping bag as Buffy and Spike stopped to look up at him. “Is anyone going to say hi to me?”

 

“Angel’s home,” Spike said, grabbing Angel’s arm and pulled him onto the bed.

 

Their mate was covered in kisses as they welcomed him home. The Power’s That Be had given them a break while Joyce had undergone her surgery. But it seemed as soon as they’d receive the good news that Buffy’s mother was in the clear, Los Angeles had been overrun with problems. Angel had been gone for almost a week without any chance for visits.

 

Angel cuddled Buffy next to him, kissing her but Spike pulled him away for his own kisses. Buffy watched as Spike was rolled on top of their mate. Their kisses getting deeper and more passionate, laced with snarls as Angel vamped out to match the blondes still demon guise. It was apparent they had a need only for each other so she slipped out of the room and headed upstairs. It stung that she wasn’t included in the reunion but she was also aware of the increasing need of the vampires for violence in their sexual escapades.

 

Neither of them had ever invited her to join in their games. Even in the times when the sex between her mates and her hadn’t been gentle, it could still be called making love. The growls and sometimes screams that came from behind their closed door made her wonder what caused them. She had found a trunk with their toys in Angel’s closet and shivered at the thought of the pain they might cause.

 

Deciding not to let it bother her, she continued to her bathroom. She settled into a bath with her favorite scent letting the hot water ease away her tension. Tonight she and her mates were going to Tara’s birthday party at the Bronze and she wanted to look special. It was an unusual occurrence for her to be able to hang out with her friends and mates at the same time. Besides, this was something to look forward to after the last few weeks. Joyce had even given permission for Dawn to go with them while Giles and Jenny were going to keep her mother company.

 

Buffy had just picked up her razor when Angel stepped into the bathroom. He smiled as he slipped into the water with her. He held his hand out to her and she went to put the razor down but he took it from her.

 

“Let me,” Angel said, positioning her foot on his shoulder. He proceeded to shave her legs in careful strokes. “You’re so beautiful, Buffy, you know that don’t you?”

 

“Thank you,” Buffy said, unsure of what he wanted from her.

 

His hand drifted over her leg to make sure it was smooth before his eyes met hers. “I know so.”

 

“Hey,” Spike said, stepping into the room carrying bottles of beer. “Brought one for everyone.” He handed one to Angel and stepped into the tub indicating Buffy to scoot forward so he could settle behind her.

 

Buffy accepted a bottle with a small thanks and her eyes dropped to the bubbles that still floated as Angel became absorbed in his task again. When Spike had entered, she’d seen the fresh scratches and bruises marring Spike’s body. She wondered how there could be pleasure from something that hurt. The biting she understood but the other was mystifying to her. Anya and Xander played games but nothing that left marks like Angel did. Spike had said it was the need in vampires for violence but how could you do something like that in love?

 

Spike wrapped his arm around her, pulling her back against him. She let her head fall back on his shoulder so that he could nuzzle her neck while one hand fondled a breast. It was a wave of sensuality to have him touching her and Angel shaving her legs. Their attention was pulling her into a haze of need. Her arm curled around behind Spike’s neck pulling him closer to her throat. He complied by nipping and sucking along her flesh to her shoulder. She opened her eyes when her leg was returned to the water.

 

Angel was staring at them with hunger in his eyes.

 

“Let me watch,” Angel whispered, leaning back with his arms along the sides.

 

Buffy was confused by his request but let Spike move her to her knees as he slid further down. She went to turn around but he brought her down with her still facing Angel. She swallowed as Spike was enveloped inside her and her eyes fluttered closed.

 

“Keep your eyes on me,” Angel said, his foot caressing her leg. “I want to see the passion in your eyes.”

 

Her hands clung to the sides of the tub to give her leverage as she began to move on Spike. They had never made love in this position before and she let his hands guide her. Angel’s gaze continued to rake over her as she moved in the water making her uncomfortable. She was used to there being someone that watched when she made love to the other but this felt more like a performance. Her eyes locked with Angel’s as she rode Spike, clenching and unclenching her muscles to bring him to his climax faster. It was relief when she felt him shudder behind her and she dropped her head as she faked her own orgasm.

 

Spike cradled her against him as he stroked her back. When she dared to look over at Angel, she realized he knew that she hadn’t cum. His eyes narrowed for a moment but then he relaxed again. Shame flooded her and she tried to climb from the tub but Spike slid his arm around her waist.

 

“Don’t leave, Luv, let’s just relax for a few,” Spike whispered, his hand slipped between her legs. “And we still have more to shave, don’t we?”

 

Buffy tried to calm down but trepidation was making it almost impossible. Every time she glanced at Angel he was staring at her making her guilt even more. She tried to rationalize her deceit but couldn’t find any reason except for the unease she felt around Angel. When he left for Los Angeles it seemed they were finding their way back to each other and now that he was back she was on her guard again. She wasn’t sure if it was really him or if it was her. Her gaze returned to his face and for the first time in four years asked herself if she was still in love with him.

 

~~~~~~~~~

 

Buffy was a beautiful woman.

 

Angel stood behind her as she preened in front of the mirror wearing the gift he’d brought her from Los Angeles. And even though she hadn’t said, he could tell she was wavering on whether she liked it or not. It was a sheer black lace body suit with a floral design and a pair of black leather hipster pants with a silver chain belt.

 

He ran his fingers along her thighs. “You’re exquisite. It makes me feel good to buy things that only enhance your beauty.” His hands cupped her bottom before sliding over hips. “Walking into a room with you on my arm makes me feel like the luckiest man in the world.” He wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her back against him. “I know that it’s not your usual style but I saw it and thought of you.” He kissed her shoulder. “If you’re not comfortable, don’t feel like you have to wear it.”

 

Spike’s eyes were boring a hole into his back in disapproval over his manipulations. Angel glanced over his shoulder at his mate and smiled before returning to watch Buffy as the doubt in her eyes faded to acceptance.  Seduction wasn’t hard when you knew your subject. Buffy was craving his love and approval and all he had to do was exploit that need to get her to acquiesce to his desires. The outfit gave an edge to her looks that hinted at the darkness hidden in her nature. He had seen it when Buffy had been hanging out with Faith. And Angelus wanted a mate that his equal and not a child that needed to be pampered.

 

It was a compromise. It was hard to deal with the urges that Angelus taunted him with and it took everything his soul had to keep from giving in. That was one of the reason’s he’d needed to be with Spike when he came home. The other vampire not only understood his needs but echoed them as well. Spike was bound by his chip and his love for his mates while Angel was bound by his soul but the aggression never disappeared; it constantly simmered below the surface. In each other’s arms they found an outlet that was only a small fix to a larger problem but as long as they had that, it made the dealing a little easier.

 

Hurting Buffy was the last thing Angel wanted. It was a tight line between introducing her to the dark side and letting her go too far over the edge. He knew that she’d been almost lost when Faith had tempted her with a flagrant disregard for the rules that Buffy lived by. He just wanted to broaden her horizons not break the fence down completely. It was something that would satisfy his Angelus side and not take away from what Angel needed from the girl.

 

Angel stepped back as Buffy turned around.

 

“I’ll wear it,” she said, smiling up at him. “Thank you.”

 

It was victory and Angel smiled before he pulled her to him for a kiss that left them both yearning for later.

 

~~~~~~~~

 

You always make me smile when I'm feeling down
You give me such a vibe, I is totally bonafide, mmm
It's not the way you walk, and it ain't the way you talk
It ain't the job you got, that keeps me satisfied

 

His demon was in a state of rapture. The music took Spike over as he circled his prey. Her arousal was the sweetest scent as it teased at him. He knew it was an elixir of the gods that he’d been fortunate to have tasted as it flowed from her fountain. Buffy was ethereal as she moved to the beat; a mischievous sprite leading him to his downfall. He wouldn’t fight her knowing that there would be only pleasure at her hands even when she destroyed all that he’d once been.

 

Your love it feels so good, and that’s what takes me high
Higher than I've been before and your love, it keeps me alive
Thought I should let you know, that your touch it means so much

 

The surprise was Angel as he slipped behind Spike with his arms encompassing them both and it took only a beat before they moved as one. So, many times had they moved like this but never as people watched. It was intoxicating to be liberated by their mate as Angel was let the world know they belonged to him. Spike’s demon rejoiced at the claim of his mates. There were a few looks that were cast their way but they didn’t care. Buffy slipped from the front to move between and Spike turned around so he could mold himself to her back. His and Angel’s hand interlaced over her hips cherishing the tiny woman that loved them.

 

Oh won't you understand how I feel yeah deep inside
Uh huh, you made feel all I need to feel
Yes, in my heart

 

Spike looked up into Angel’s eyes and saw only love to give the final touch to make their world right again. The family was celebrating together and his mates were finding the magic they’d thought was lost between them. Angel’s fingers caressed Buffy’s face and she could only stare at him in adoration. His Sire bent to kiss her and Spike wrapped his arms around them both as their ardor escalated. They’d never make it home and when Angel backed up taking Buffy by the hand neither shied from his invitation. Good-byes were quickly given to the others as they made their exit. Willow promised to get Dawn home leaving them free to concentrate on each other.

 

Angel slid into the passenger side of his car putting Buffy in the middle while Spike started the car.  By the time they pulled out of the parking lot her pants were on the floor and the body suit was around her waist. When they turned the first corner Angel was inside of her. Spike was happy they hadn’t slipped into the back so he could be a part of their reunion. His fingers slid through her hair as it flowed over his lap. He took the car out to the coastal highway so they could take their time.

 

“I love you, Buffy,” Angel whispered, holding her tight against him. “You’re my everything and I can’t live without you beside me.” His hand curled over Spike’s knee, stroking it as he kissed Buffy. “I will never let you go. Say you’ll always be mine.”

 

And a chill ran down Spike’s spine as Buffy promised everything she was to their mate.
