Once upon a time they had been innocent victims of the darkness, but Angel had never thought of himself that way. Liam had been exactly what his father had thought he was and nothing more. A lazy, drunken, and quite often cruel layabout who was good for nothing. No...he'd never been an innocent victim. That's exactly why Darla had chose him out of all the young men of Galway to be her childe. She had saw the truth that lay beneath his skin---his potential to become exactly what he became. A blood thirsty bastard. But William on the other hand. William had been an innocent victim. Angel remembered the first time he had seen William. The night his sweet, insane china doll had scented his broken heart on the wind and begged her 'Daddy' to let her have him. He had been a work of art---oh, yes he had been perfect. Smooth youthful complexion, perfectly shaped cheekbones flushed with blood that spoke of his own embarrassment. A youthful, mythical Greek god with soft, thick golden brown curls and sharp sapphire eyes fringed with thick dark lashes. William was definitely innocent and perhaps if Drusilla hadn't begged so beautifully he would have changed that perfect gilded youth himself. But as always Drusilla had gotten what she had wanted. Of course her daddy wasn't upset about that in the least for he was getting what he desired as well. *** Liam had often thought of men and how it would be to fuck one, but he had decided he would save that one for when his father would be shocked the most. Of course Angelus had no such ulterior motives---he just wanted to have William. And have William he did much to Dru's childish demonic glee. Looking back now he knew that Angelus had seen William's true potential. He had decided to mark his territory early on to squelch any ideas William might get. So first he had made him furious by fucking Dru, taunted him, then he had waited. Like a vulture circling it's prey and William had never been the wiser to his plan. Until the night it happened. *** It had started out as most of their nights did when Darla and Drusilla decided to do their own thing. A seedy tavern in the poorest area of London, pints, and buxom whores vying for the attentions of the two most beautiful men in the room. Of course William in his zeal to out do Angelus hadn't noticed that for every four pints he had Angelus nursed one. Angelus was no one's fool, least of all sweet William's. Around one am they had made their selections and stumbled out into the fog shrouded streets. The whores were used and disposed of, then the two stumbled down the streets---arm in arm---Angelus singing bawdy Irish drinking songs and William laughing his drunken ass off. Of course Angelus was far from drunk. Halfway back to the flat they had taken over William passed out in Angelus' arms in a drunken stupor. Without even missing a beat he hefted William over his shoulder carrying him the rest of the way singing to himself. Oh, yes tonight he would be having what he'd been wanting. He had waited far longer than he had ever waited for any- thing other than Drusilla. He was tired of waiting. What Angelus wanted he took. It was as simple as that and William learned the hard way that night. *** "What no witty come back peaches?" Angel glanced up at Spike's bruised face shaking his head. "I was thinking." "Seems you do far to much of that for your own good." Spike paused, studying Angel with those sharp blue eyes. "Now don't go telling me you're mooning over Buffy again." Shaking his head Angel pulled up a chair next to Spike's bed. "No...not Buffy. That's obviously over." Now Spike was confused. Not just that he was a bloody bit fright- ened by the expression on Angel's face. He was used to anger, to broodiness, jealousy, but never regret---especially when it was aimed at him. *** William had woke still drunk on blood and bitters, but he sobered a bit when he realized he was chained---naked to Angelus's bed. "Wha...at the bloody hell?" His eyes widened as Angelus settled next to him on the mattress. His dark eyes flickered with golden slivers of demonic ice. "Oh, now don't be going all surprised on me Willie lad. Surely you knew some- where deep inside that this was to come about." William knew exactly what Angelus wanted and he began to shake in a mixture of fear and anger. His already pale face paled ever so slightly more and he swallowed hard. "You'd rape me then? Just like that?" He tugged at the chains weakly as he met Angelus' dark gaze. Angelus stood circling the bed clucking his tongue softly. "Ahhh...now don't be labeling our ways with human concepts. It's just a matter of determining the pecking order in our little family." "Pecking order?" William snorted. "Don't you mean ownership?!" His voice raised. "You want Drusilla and you think you can bloody well have her anytime you want." With a roar Angelus was on his chest, crushing him into the mattress as he dug his fingers deep into William's face. "See that's the problem dear Willie...you can't seem to get it through that lovely little head of yours that Drusilla is mine and she has always been mine. I am her sire and that gives me privileges that you can only dream of. You are just her childe...I am her maker." He bent down his face changing and claimed William's mouth with a brutal kiss. His incisors digging into William's lower lip---drawing sweet blood---as William began to twist and growl beneath him. Pulling back he let out a deep laugh his long dark hair falling around his face as his features shifted back to human. "I should cut your hands off sweet Willie. That way you could never touch what is mine again." William's eyes widened with just a hint of fear. "Dru would never let you do that? I would be helpless...I wouldn't be able to feed or protect myself!" "Oh, my sweet twisted dolly would let me do it, but I think I'll settle for this," Angelus' reached back his long fingers curling around William's semierect cock. Whimpering William twisted his hips desperately trying to pull away. "Be still boy!" Angelus roared. "I could always change me mind and slice off your cock!" His eyes shifted to gold and back as he squeezed the now fully hard column of flesh. "Like that do you boyo? Or perhaps I'll rip it off as I bugger that sweet ass of yours?" *** Angel's eyes lowered to the thick white bandages that encased most of Spike's forearms. God he had been such a bastard. The image of Spike laying there on the filthy floor, chained to the pipes, and his hands gone had brought that night back in a bitter rush of guilt and horror. His hands sawed off above the wrist---the scent of blood thick in the air. "Forgive me Spike." Spike's gaze met his as he lifted his head. "For what you great pouf? Was my own bloody fault for being so cocky. Running off thinking I was indestructible and...," "For what I did to you that night in London." Pale faced Spike leaned back against the pillows taking a deep breath though he didn't need it. It was one of the few things he had never got used to---not breathing. He found himself breathing constantly maybe his way of clinging to his humanity. "I don't know what you're blathering about you silly sod." "Yes, you do William." Angel let the name glide over his tongue with a hint of his long ago abandoned brogue. *** William was screaming and cursing Angelus with every profanity he could muster. "You bloody bastard!" "Aye...that I am sweet Willie. And may I say damn proud of it as well." He knelt between William's outspread thighs. "I must say that I am surprised at the breadth of your vocabulary. Never thought you had it in you." Panting William squirmed as he felt the tip of his grandsire's cock brush his ass. "Dru will bloody well kill you for this!" He screamed as the blunt thickness pressed against his opening, teasing and terrifying in the same breath. Angelus clucked softly and smiled a feral grin---his incisors lowering. "Will you be killing me sweet dolly?" To William's horror Drusilla stepped from behind one of the heavy velvet drapes. Her dark eyes were twinkling as she nibbled on her lower lip. The swish of her heavy skirts made William's skin crawl. "Never kill my daddy...my beautiful...," she crawled up behind Angelus, "...sweet and precious daddy." Her gaze shifted to William. "You mustn't fight my darling William...daddy only wants to taste you. His kiss is so sweet William...sweet like freshly spilled blood." Her laughter echoed through the room---chimes dancing in a spring breeze---as she tangled her fingers in Angelus' dark hair. "You can't mean to let him have me Dru? I love you...," he swallowed hard. Sliding off the mattress Drusilla danced around the bed humming to herself as she smiled wide. With a soft laugh she settled on the mattress next to him the soft, crunch of satin and stiff linen filling his ears. She leaned close and brushed an icy kiss along his cheek. "When he enters you it's like meeting God my lovely William. So thick and hard...so exquisitely painful, but the stars sing and then he tastes you." She licked the curve of his ear. "Yes, they do don't they me childe. William must know that feeling...he must be taught who his superiors are mustn't he?" With those words Angelus brutally thrust into William's tight body. All William could do was scream. *** Spike's gaze lowered to the blanket as he let Angel's voice wash over him. So different, but still the same after all these years. "I've never been an innocent victim...," Angel whispered softly, "...Darla knew that." "Bugger Darla!" Spike snapped his eyes burn- ing like twin blue flames. "She made you what you were...just as Dru made me what I am. I won't sit here and listen to you drudge up the bloody past luv." Angel's eyes widened as he heard that one word. "How can you say that Spike? How can you look me in the eye and believe that?" "Because it's true you great pouf! Christ, but you never understood...did you?" Lifting up from the chair Angel turned away from what he saw in Spike's eyes. It wasn't true---not after the cruelty he had visited on Spike. "Dru might have made me Angel, but you were always my sire. Your blood flows through me just as it flowed through her. Do you think that insane witch could have ever taught me what I needed to bloody well know to survive?" Angel closed his eyes refusing to look at Spike. "I took an innocent young man and allowed him to be twisted and if that wasn't enough I twisted him even more." Snorting Spike shifted against the stiff cotton beneath him. "Oh spare me the woe and guilt Captain Forehead!" His voice snapped. "I wasn't that bloody innocent. Do you have a clue what I was thinking the night Drusilla changed me?" With a sigh Angel turned back. "No...I don't." "I was thinking of revenge. Revenge on the high-class strumpet who had just torn my heart out and crushed it. I wanted to feel her blood...hot and thick on my hands. I wanted to murder the bloody bitch with my bare hands." *** William's curses had turned to cries of painful pleasure as Angelus rode him hard. The brutality was surprisingly erotic and it didn't help his control either that Drusilla was watching with those demonic eyes. Her tongue teased at his nipples drawing them up into tight peaks as he howled and writhed beneath Angelus. As her incisors pierced the sensitive nubs and drew blood her delicate fingers curled around his aching erection. A squeeze. A tug. Then Angelus hit that sweet spot just right and he was coming. As his body began to spasm Angelus bit into his convulsing throat and William discovered what a vampire called heaven. Impaled by his grandsire's pulsing cock and his razor sharp incisors. His body being drained of blood and semen all at the same time. This was something he had desired before he even had a name for it. Utopia. Convulsing one last time he collapsed beneath the weight of Angelus and let out a gasping cry of pain. Afterwards when he had recovered enough Drusilla had stripped and joined them. Painting her pale cold flesh with William's blood like some macabre version of war paint. And a war had begun that night, a war that amused Darla to no end. Sire and childe both vying for Drusilla's affections in any manner. Angelus had come close more than once to loping off William's long slender hands for touching what he thought of as his. Some nights they would end as they had that night. Angelus buried in William's tightness, Dru impaled on William's 'pretty pecker' as she called it, and William content to be covered in a cool silken pile of flesh stained scarlet with their own blood. *** "I miss you William...sometimes." Spike's gaze shifted from the blanket back to Angel's dark sorrowful eyes and he felt his body twitch with the need he had buried deep inside him long ago. It hadn't just been Darla who had mourned Angelus'loss over a century ago. "William died long ago Angel. He died in the arms of a deadly china doll with not a bloody bit of sanity in her head. He died in an alley filled with filth and broken dreams." Spike sighed leaning back into the pillows his eyes fluttering shut. He was shocked to feel a pair of soft, cool lips graze his own. Opening his eyes he met Angel's hungry gaze with a smug laugh. "Thought that wasn't your cup of tea any- more." Angel smiled and captured his lips again. This time in a brutal kiss that caused his cock to twitch and swell beneath the thin blanket. Pulling back Angel growled softly in the back of his throat---his hand easing down to grope the hardening flesh between Spike's trembling thighs. "Hey now...how is that fair pet?" "We have never played fair...William...," Angel squeezed Spike roughly as he licked the vein in his neck. "Why should we start now?" Spike choked back a moan as he leaned in kissing Angel hard and deep. "Like I said before...I'd give you the finger if I could move my bloody hands." Angel raised a brow. "And what exactly would you do with that finger Willie?" Laughing Spike grinned smugly. "Wouldn't you like to know luv." Straightening up Angel leered at Spike his eyes flickering to eerie gold and back again. "As a matter of fact I would." Before Spike could say a word he moved to the door. He paused for a moment as if considering something, then turned back flashing his game face. "When that finger starts working I'll be waiting." Then he was gone leaving Spike to contemplate his words. Shaking his head Spike laid back and closed his eyes again. "I was never innocent Angel luv, but I did love you...once upon a time." The End
