Chapter I
Predator and Prey Play in the Lair
Axel stood in Commissioner Gordon's office listening to her orders. Her large black and red wings tight against her back, her back perfectly straight.
"Yes, Sir." she said just before she left to fulfill her orders. She walked briskly over to her desk and grabbed her backpack with her case file in it. She slung it over her bony shoulder making sure her raven hair was out of the way. "See you tomorrow Carson." She said to the geeky looking man across the desk.
"Later Loan." He said, too busy on the computer to even look up. She walked out of the building briskly trying to get home quickly. Once she was on the doorstep of the police station, she unfurled her wings and took to the sky in one brisk movement. She looked down at the city of Gotham. It always looked like it had a dark cloud hanging over it. As she flew to her apartment she watched the bat signal turn on. She knew The Bat and Gordon were probably hanging out on the roof talking. She landed on her apartment building's roof and took the fire escape to her floor and came in the window she had converted into a door. She tossed her backpack down and went for her phone.
Iorik scanned his bustling lounge. He recalled a news article he'd seen: 'The Lair declared best club in Gotham!' He spotted a commotion by the door.
"Signal's on," came Bjorn's voice in Iorik's earpiece. Iorik sat at the bar and ordered a cocktail, still scanning the crowd. His eyes were royal purple with metallic gold flecks and glittered like jewels.
Axel called her brother and put him on speaker as she went shopping in her closet.
"Hey Ax." Said the man on the other line.
"Hey Arrow. You wanna go to The Lair with me tonight?" She asked, finding a sleeveless little black dress for her hourglass figure.
"Yeah sure let me find something though..." He said, putting his own phone on speaker and staring at himself in the mirror. While Axel was getting dressed, Arrow was trying to find something that would fit over his wings and look good. "Hey, let's meet on the roof of our building." he said, seeing as he lived on the first floor and she lived on the fifth.
"Yeah sure." She hung up and put a bit of makeup on. Arrow finally picked something and met Axel on the roof. The both flew over to the club and walked up to the door. Bjorn looked at the two with his regular eye while his bionic one scanned them from under his eyepatch.
Wings. Huh. That's a new one. The bouncer thought as he held up his massive hand, stopping them. "You kids got some I.D. ?" His voice was deep and gruff. A tall, thin man brushed by the two and walked up to Bjorn, who bowed. "Dr. Valtiago. Welcome back." The thin man nodded and walked in as Bjorn turned back to Arrow and Axel. Both pulled out their Passports showing they were 23. Axel and Arrow noted Dr. Valtiago as he came by before turning back to Bjorn. The red in both their wings made them look much darker in the street lights.
"Go on in. And here." Bjorn handed them each a pair of drink tickets. "Have yourselves a couple drinks on the house." He turned to make a note on his list, the light revealing the blue and black Valknut tattoo on the left side of his neck.
Inside, Iorik's eyes lighted on Arrow. He smiled, revealing perfect, pearly teeth with slightly elongated canines. The two stools to his left were empty. Arrow walked in wearing a black button up that he was too lazy to button up and a pair of jeans. His hair was a mess but he at least brushed it. Axel gently pulled her brother to the bar. She sat him next to Iorik and ordered both of them a martini. Arrow was blissfully aware of Iorik upon walking into the bar.
"Hello there, cutie,". Iorik said. "First time in my Lair? You're a little different from the usual crowd.." He eyed Arrows wings with interest. Iorik wore a pair of side lace black leather pants and a low cut midnight purple silk shirt reminiscent of a salsa dancer's top, the neckline stopping just above his navel. He wore a pair of black leather italian boots. Arrow listened to Iorik talk and almost melted to the floor.
"Yeah it is my first time in here." He blushed a little taking a drink of his martini. "Axel read about the club in the newspaper and she never goes out to the club alone." She was watching everything and drinking her martini when Arrow made a blatant attack on her, "And apparently she has no friends of her own." He chuckled a little, his eyes lighting up a brighter cloud grey.
"Oh shut it you don't either so you can't complain." She remarked at him. He rolled his eyes and nodded his head to the right a bit noting that that was true.
"What is your name, handsome?" Iorik asked, his eyes glittering as he takes a sip of his own drink, his long black hair falling forward to frame his face.
"Arrow. And yours?" He asked Iorik setting his elbow on the bar propping his head up. His eyes drooping to half mast with a bit of flame behind them.
"Iorik ShadowBlade. I own the club." He leaned on the counter, the 3 carat flawless diamond on his platinum pinky ring glittering as the lights dimmed. A spotlight appeared on the piano. Lying on top was a voluptuous young woman with long auburn curls in a sparkling red dress and red patent pumps. She started singing some oldies in her second soprano.
"Ah, well nice to meet you Iorik." Arrow turned to look at the piano before noticing Axel was playing pool. He rolled his eyes and smiled.
"Are you new to Gotham?" Iorik asked quietly, not looking at the piano. Arrow turned back to Iorik.
"Actually we moved here a year ago. We used to live in Habitual." He said, remembering the small town.
"Your sister better be careful. That crowd doesn't take kindly to losing," Iorik commented, finishing his drink as the woman finished her song and the crowd applauded. "Do you want to sit by the stage? It would be nice to have someone attractive to sing to, for once." Iorik asked with a smile.
"Yeah. Sure." Arrow blushed and finished off his drink. He was starting to hope Axel didn't blow this for him.
"Hey, that was a cheap shot!" one of the mobsters Axel was shooting pool with said after the winged young woman sunk three balls with one shot. Arrow closed his eyes and inwardly groaned as he heard the confrontation. Iorik looked over, then turned to Arrow with a mischievous grin.
"You want to see something cool?"
"Yeah, sure." Arrow said, remembering a hunk was standing next to him. Iorik made a complicated hand gesture and the mobster hassling Axel yelped as the the seat of his pants burst into flame. Arrow started laughing clutching his sides. Axel instantly raised her hands and looked at Arrow shaking her head mouthing I didn't do it. Arrow laughed harder at his sister before mentioning to Iorik to calm her down. Iorik winked at Axel and the mobster's pants went out. He led her and Arrow to the VIP table near the stage and signalled a cocktail waitress.
"The usual, sir?" the girl said, pulling out a notepad. Iorik nodded, then turned to Arrow.
"What'll ya have, cutie?"
"A bloody Mary please." Arrow said to the waitress, then looked at Iorik.
"Martini please." Axel said to the girl.
"Put 'em on my tab," Iorik said. The waitress smiled and left, returning a moment later with a martini for Axel, the bloody mary for Arrow and a bubbling, smoking crimson drink in a crystal goblet, which she placed in front of Iorik, who tossed a $100 bill onto her tray. Arrow looked around and took a drink of his bloody mary. Axel looked at Iorik weird, wondering why he left a $100 tip.
"Sorry, boys. My voice needs to rest," the singer on the piano said to the audience as she walked over to Iorik, swaying her hips. She winked at Axel. "But I'm sure your host wouldn't mind singing something for us," she handed the mic to Iorik as the crowd whistled. He stood and slowly turned around as the band struck up a slow tune. Axel watched the female singer walk over and wink, and she looked the girl up and down. Iorik began to sing to Arrow in a smooth, perfect tenor.
"Your fingers in my hair, that sly come hither stare, that strips my conscience bare, it's witchcraft." His eyes glittered as he continued, and he finished the song seated on Arrow's lap, stroking the other man's wings gently, with a coy smile. For Arrow, when Iorik started singing, the world started to melt away. When Iorik finished the song Arrow was red as a tomato with a rager in his pants. About now Arrow was cursing his wings for being an erogenous zone. The crowd applauded. It was about three a.m., and the patrons began to disperse. Iorik continued to sit on Arrow's lap, stroking his wings. "You drive here, cutie?" Iorik asked with a charming smile.
"Flew." Arrow said the blush starting to disappear from his face and his eyes going half mast. The embarrassment had run off and was now replaced with lust.
"We'll I'm going to head home Arrow." Axel said, finishing her drink and getting up to leave.
"No rush, sweetie. Stay awhile." The woman in red said, sitting down in Iorik's chair. "I don't think either of you should fly home after drinking."
"Axel, this is my sister, Lillian." Iorik said, shifting slightly on Arrows lap, the movement causing him to bump against the other man's erection. Arrow sucked in a breath and held it. Iorik looked at Arrow in surprise, then gave a smile and leaned in so his hip was pressing against Arrow's hardened member, winking. The action caused Arrow to let the breath go slowly, trying not to groan in pleasure. Axel looked at Lillian.
"Hello Lillian." She smiled, being courteous.
"I think they should spend the night," Iorik said without looking away from his prey, the look in his eyes indicating that Arrow wasn't going to get much sleep.
"Yeah, Ax, maybe we should just stay." Arrow purred out, looking into Iorik's eyes.
"Fine, we'll stay, but if I hear any of that I will have your hide." She said looking at Arrow then Lillian. Iorik chuckled.
"I have no idea what you're referring to." he said innocently, standing and scooping Arrow up bridal style as if he weighed nothing, careful not to harm his wings. Axel faked a gag then laughed. She really wasn't bothered by it at all. "Lilian will show you to your room when you wish," Iorik said before carrying Arrow into the elevator. Arrow flipped Axel off on the way out and held onto Iorik's neck. As soon as the doors closed, Iorik kissed him on the lips passionately. The winged man kissed back, his hands making their way into Iorik's hair. He momentarily broke the kiss to catch a breath before going back to making out with the beautiful man holding him.
Back in the bar, Axel stood up.
"Can I please be shown to my room I need some sleep." She asked Lillian.
"You'll be bunking with me, toots,". Lillian said with a smirk, downing the rest of Iorik's abandoned drink. "C'mon. This way." She led Axel to the other elevator, and Bjorn and the black suited piano player joined them, the large elevator providing ample room. The piano player bowed regally, taking off his black fedora.
"Hello, m'lady."Axel nodded to the Piano player.
"Hello." She smiled. She looked at all the people in the elevator and started to get a little anxious.
The elevator carrying Iorik and Arrow opened to reveal a lavish penthouse lit by the soft light of ivory coloured candles that floated in midair. Iorik carried his prize to the bedroom where a huge round bed was waiting, clad in black silk sheets. A black marble vase was on the nightstand, filled with blood red orchids. The candles floated here, too. Arrow looked around the room and smiled. Iorik grinned at the man in his arms.
"You up for some fun, gorgeous?"
