Scents and Sensibility

Xander comes round slowly, conscious of the fact that things are different now but unsure of just what it is that has changed. And why.

Everything seems somehow more. Sounds are louder, sharper, clearer. Each thread, warp and weft, of the cotton sheets beneath his naked form are suddenly rough, distinct against his skin. And then he draws his first breath and is overwhelmed by a tidal wave of scent.

Blood. Stale sweat. Sex. Smoke and leather. And something else, something special, something he should recognise, would recognise if he could only focus for a moment...

"S'okay Xan. Calm down."




Extra Spicy

Nuzzling closer, Xander inhales deeply and purrs in satisfaction.

"Sire, you smell so good, so... different. Spicy and sharp, like lime, allspice, liquorice and brimstone. Smells so good, Spike. Delicious. I want another taste. Let me?"

"That's the demon in me, luv. Yours is in there too if you just concentrate. You're still chocolate and cheetos, but now with added cinnamon, copper, sulphur and sage. And no, no more tasting. You've had enough for now. I want you fresh and ready for the hunt tonight, okay? I think it's time you went out on your own. I want to watch."




Food Fight

The scent of fear was an amazingly effective aphrodisiac, he realised as he slowly stalked his prey. He'd let the idiot try to run to ground then penned him in. He liked it when his meals fought back; he had more fun that way. He knew that Sire - Spike - got off on watching him take them down. If he thought it odd that Xander still played the hero he never said, allowing him his choice of mugger, rapist, perv or pimp.

"Get on with it, eh, Xan? I can smell you're hard from here and I want a shag."




Hide and Seek

Spike checks the final knot before stepping back to admire his handiwork.

"It'll take you about an hour to wriggle free and by then I'll be safely hid away. All you have to do is follow your nose until you find me. If you make good time I'll even let you top."

~~~

It takes almost ninety minutes to escape, but once free Xander makes amazing time. He tracks the fading scents of Sire, smoke and aging leather, to an old deserted warehouse at the docks that smells of fish.

Spike is waiting, naked and slicked up.

"You took your time."

Spike believes in providing Xander with incentives to learn is all. *g*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

I like playing with vamp!Xander. He's so much fun!

Thanks, sweetie.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thank you! He hits a couple of my kinks too, not that you'd ever guess. ;o)

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Twice? A double thank you! *g*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :o)

I'm a wee bit partial to vampire-y stories myself. ;o)

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thank you darlin'. :o)

I could see Xander starting to panic in the first one. System overload...

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Hee! Thanks. I couldn't resist sending Xander hunting. And Hide and Seek is a wonderful way to teach Xander how to concentrate. *g*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Well, Xander's a baby demon so it works well. *g* Thanks!

Oh yeah, baby! *g* Thanks, sweetie.

[kitty-poker1.livejournal.com]

And she does it again! Wheeeeeeee!

Lovely stuff. Vamp!Xander is distinctly not a kink of mine but how can I resist your lovely take on him and his learning curve? Spike is so helpful. *g*

[nashmaveric.livejournal.com]

Awwwwww....I dunno if I should find this cute but Xander's a new vampire and he's getting trained! And Spike loves him! ::aw face::

[moimoietmoi.livejournal.com]

Lovely vampire love! Love your Vamp!Xander!
And why is it that "I want to watch" always makes me think bad smutty thoughts?

[werewindle.livejournal.com]

Wonderful nice! Xan is cute in this and I love Sire!Spike. ^__^

[cleeaz.livejournal.com]

Ahhh, Spike's the best sire ever.

[outsideth3box.livejournal.com]

Vamp!Xander makes my...mouth...water. Yeah.

This was very nice, love to see Spike teaching Xander the ropes. Watch Xander play with his food. Love love love it!

Thanks for these! ::Pets you and spanks you and calls you George::

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Yeah, there's just something about vamp!Xander that makes a girl shiver. *g*

Thanks!

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thanks. :o)

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Vamp!Xan is fun. I'm going to have to do a longer piece on him one day. *g*

Thanks.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, plenty of fun and games to be had with those two bad boys. *g* Thanks. :o)

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Hee! A convert! Yay! Thanks. :o)

Vamp!Xander is so sweet and cute and lethal. He's just a big, fluffy puppy with fangs, who wants to make his Sire happy. *g*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Of course it's cute! Xander is learning how to be a proper vampire and he's being trained using incentives instead of punishment. Hee! Thanks. :o)

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :o)

And why is it that "I want to watch" always makes me think bad smutty thoughts?

Cos that's the way it sounds when Spike says it. *g*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Sire!Spike is adorable. He learned at the feet of Angelus and Dru how not to raise his offspring. ;o)

Thanks!

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

He is, definitely. His training techniques are... unique. *g*

[umbralillium.livejournal.com]

*nods vigorously* I'm tempted to jump ahead to season three just so I can watch The Wish and see vamp!Xander. *grins*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :o)

Xander is eager to learn, especially when ropes are involved. *g*

::Pets you and spanks you and calls you George::

Woohoo!

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

He is so.damn.hot in that ep! ::contemplates sorting out the relevant dvd and watching again::

[umbralillium.livejournal.com]

I hear ya! Is it bad!dirty!wrong that I find Spike and Xander so friggin' hawt when they're in game face? *wicked grin*

*cough* yeah. I'm going to bed now before I embarrass myself further. ;-D
