Chapter Seven- Bonded
Toguro looked up as heard a key in the door as the sun started to rise. Yusuke entered, his eyes sparkling happily for some reason Toguro couldn't even begin to guess. He shut and locked the door before approaching Toguro, and going to one knew. "Master," he said.
"Yes?" Toguro raised an eyebrow.
"Thank you for turning me, Master. I like being a vampire now."
He smiled. "I'm pleased that you have reconsidered your view of your eternal life. Now, sleep until dusk and when you wake, you will feed and then bring me my victim."
"Yes, Master." Yusuke went to their room, stripped off his clothes, and got into the coffin, closing it. Toguro preferred Yusuke to be naked and that was why he took them off. He still didn't like being in service to Toguro, but had accepted that this was his eternal role in life and would rather follow orders than be tortured for disobeying.
Toguro yawned as he entered his room. Yusuke's coffin was closed, his clothes neatly folded beside it. He grinned at this. His slave was naked again. He laid on the bed and stared up at the ceiling where a few sunbeams crawled across it. He was starting to feel differently about his slave. He had intended to turn the boy and rape him, which went perfectly. He had expected to discipline Yusuke to teach him his place and to obey him. He succeeded with that, too. His eyes flicked to the coffin. I would love to be pleasurable with him again, perhaps even make actual love as we are still sexually functional. He doesn't know it, but I can make him act like the vampire I am: One see sees humans as prey to suck dry, not spare. All I have to do is share blood with him. I will insist on being pleasured and during that I will suck some of his blood and he will suck some of mine. His remaining humanity will vanish the following night and he will drain his victim. Yes, he will be a true vampire and sharing our blood will bond us as mates as well as insuring that he will be forever obedient and loyal. Toguro drifted off to sleep, a smile on his lips.
Yusuke opened the door and pulled an unconscious woman into the room. He closed the door, carried the woman to Toguro, put her down, and knelt on one knee. "Your victim, Master."
"Very good. Once I'm done, you will dispose of the corpse and return. I desire to be pleasurable with you."
"Yes, Master." He stood nearby as Toguro drank his victim dry. His fangs pricking her neck woke her and her eyes remained open as she died. Her blank stare was locked on Yusuke who felt awful that he had brought her to her death. But I had been ordered and my place is to obey. When Toguro rose and headed for their room, Yusuke carried the corpse out and dumped it in a dumpster, healed the marks, and went back to the penthouse. He had already fed and was ready to please his master.
He entered the bedroom, saw Toguro in bed naked, and immediately stripped. Toguro beckoned imperiously and Yusuke complied, climbing onto the bed. Toguro, on his side, pulled Yusuke toward him and planted a kiss on the lips. Yusuke melted at the kiss by a combination of being ordered and truly enjoying it. Toguro's earlier hint of having pleasure was the boy's order. He parted and said, "I am starting to feel differently about you, Yusuke. I would prefer to please you and be pleased by you, perhaps actually make love."
"Yes, Master. Whatever you want."
"Excellent." Toguro pushed his fangs into Yusuke's neck and started to suck some blood, the latter only gasping at the prick. He pulled out and the holes closed up. "Now, suck my blood, Yusuke. We will be bonded as mates by sharing blood."
"Yes, Master." He pushed his fangs into Toguro's neck and began to drink. It wasn't as satisfying as human blood, but he drank anyway. He felt something happening to him as he pulled back. He looked into Toguro's eyes and then he understood. His loyalty and obedience was now total. He would obey without question or hesitation.
"You are now both my loyal servant and loving mate, Yusuke." Toguro rolled Yusuke onto his back and got on top of him. He leaned down to lick the boy's pale neck and plant a trail of kisses along it. The moans that resulted from those moves made Toguro smile and suckled the wet skin. Yusuke moaned even louder. "Oh, Master," he breathed.
"Yusuke," he said softly as his fingers caressed the smooth firm chest beneath him. He found this lovemaking very nice and knew it could get intense if he so desired. And I do, he thought. He began to rub circles on the chest, eliciting soft moans. He continued to rub and hear Yusuke moan as he progressed to the legs. He saw the hard erection and lowered his head to run his tongue over it and gently nibble it with his fangs. Yusuke gasped at the feel of the fangs and then begged Toguro to thrust into him. He happily complied and the screams were music to his ears. He yelled in response as he pumped fast and hard. He reached his climax and the release was sweet and left both vampires satisfied. Toguro moved beside Yusuke and pulled the boy close so that the younger vampire's back was against his chest. "You will no longer sleep in a coffin," he whispered in his ear. "We are mates and will share a bed."
"Yes, Master," Yusuke murmured, feeling happy and safe in his mate's arms. He didn't know why Toguro felt more loving toward him and he didn't really care. All he wanted was to be treated well and loved. He knew the former required total obedience and he would give it. The latter would result from obeying Toguro or when the older vampire felt sexual. He smiled; his relationship with Toguro had changed and for the better. We will be together forever and I will serve him happily.
Toguro enjoyed the feel of Yusuke against his chest. He was already planning tomorrow night. Yusuke would drain his victim, they will discuss his feelings on it, and then he will insist that Yusuke make love to him instead of him making love. He will become the vampire he was meant to be. Together, we will feast on the city. No one will be spared and when we have killed everyone here, we will move on to feed elsewhere and fight with any demons we encounter. Our lives will be ones full of blood and love.
The room gradually darkened as a new night began. Yusuke opened his eyes and saw Toguro gazing gently at him. "Good evening, Master," he said; even though they were mates, Toguro was his master, first and foremost.
"Hello, Yusuke. What do you think about the two of us feeding together? It will be our first outing as mates."
"I would love that, Master." Yusuke hopped out of bed and dressed quickly. He looked forward to feeding with his master and mate. He still couldn't believe how quickly things between them had changed. They were still master and servant but they were also more than that.
Toguro got dressed and guided Yusuke out of their home, a hand on the small of his back. He guided his mage to the elevator, and out the front door. The pair strolled down the sidewalk, enjoying the clear starry night. Toguro's eyes swept the crowds, looking for a good place to feed while Yusuke savored Toguro's hand on his back.
Toguro then seized Yusuke's hand and yanked him between two stories, their walls forming an alley. "I just spotted two humans coming our way very soon," he explained, his voice so low that only Yusuke would hear him. Yusuke focused his hearing and heard two sets of footsteps coming closer and the sound of two heartbeats was also heard. He licked his lips in anticipation.
The humans came into view to show that they were young women. Toguro and Yusuke seized them, muffled their screams, and sank their fangs into them. Toguro drank automatically, his eyes fixed on his mate's actions. The woman in his grip was sinking to her knees, eyes fluttering closed. He focused on the woman's heart and heard the heart slowing to a stop. He has done it. Yusuke has killed as I planned. His humanity is gone.
Yusuke released the corpse and stared cold and unfeeling at it. It didn't bother or horrify him that he had killed. He needed blood to live, she had what he needed, and he knew that she wouldn't give it up willingly so he had to take it by force and not just some of it; he wanted all of it. It makes sense. I'm a vampire and humans are my prey. He flashed a contented smiled at Toguro who returned it.
"Draining them is better than sparing them, isn't it, Yusuke?"
"Yes, Master. Much better. I should have given in from the start. Vampires drink blood and we hunt for it."
"That's right. We are the hunters and humans are the prey. That is the natural order. Now, let's return home and make love again only this time you will be on top."
