The world was awakening, the sun coming forth with brilliant rays that
chased away the silvery gaze of the moon. Creatures of the dark scurried
into their hiding places as their time was banished yet again in the
endless cycle of dark and light. The first songs of the day birds could be
heard through the stone walls of the crypt. Deep in her thoughts, the
redhead sat in a chair across from the bed where her lover and her
plaything lay curled together on silken sheets. Her eyes traced the
contours of their bodies, taking in the pale skin of her mate. Delicate
arms were wrapped around the flushed skin of the human pet, cradling her
from the harshness of the world; their minds deep in the realm of Morpheus,
Lord of the Dreaming.
Smiling possessively, Willow crossed her legs as she retreated back into her thoughts. Surprisingly, Dawn was starting to grow on her. Wickedly she grinned as images of the delights of the night filled her head. Flashes of skin, soft moans of pleasure and naughty whisperings. The girl had such potential in her for darkness, with the right training she would make a beautiful and powerful vampire. Drusilla was completely taken with the girl, so it stood to reason that there was something underneath the whiny brat exterior, and last night had proven it. The dynamics of their little group had changed, but it really didn't worry her too much. The witch was still the ruling part of the trio, Dawn may answer to her mistress, but Drusilla answered to Willow.
It was an endless source of amusement to the redheaded vampire, that she should rule over her sire. That was just the way of it however. Angelus had created a need in Drusilla that could only be sated by someone being dominate to her. There were occasions when sanity came back to the brunette, but they were rare and it was rather fun to fight for domination during those moments. Overall, it was still Willow who ruled and cared for her lover.
A lover who apparently wanted a family; which Willow was more than willing to give to her. She was completely devoted to her sire, and what her sire wanted her sire got. That want happened to center around Dawn, and there was the added benefit that it would truly tick off the Slayer.
The Slayer, now that was an issue. It would be all too easy to kill the blonde and all her friends off; she already had made plans for that. But what about after she had turned the annoying brat? Did she want to stay and rule over the Hellmouth or would she take her family and move on? Either way, she needed a better base of operations than a crypt in a cemetery. Musing to herself, she moved over to the bed and climbed onto it. A smile covered her face as she settled down between the silken sheets and surrendered herself to the dreaming, tomorrow would bring the dawn of new plans.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dawn woke slowly as her mind surfaced from the fog of dreams, yawning she stretched languidly and looked around her surroundings. Memories of the previous night flooded her mind and she let out a soft sigh as she snuggled into the cool body next to her. It was the best night of her young life, she could say that easily, and she had learned many things. Willow hadn't been kidding when she said it was lesson time. Giggling softly to herself, she turned over to look at the redheaded vampire that was cuddling into her back.
The jealousy she had felt at the relationship between Drusilla and Willow had abated somewhat now. She had been taken into their fold, and she was part of them now even if they didn't want her. The brunette girl was not going to let go of the power she now had, nor was she going to let go of the love. Her mistress loved her, of that she was sure, Willow probably didn't but that really did not matter. Things would come in time. Smiling, she shook her head as she began to untangle herself from the silk sheets only to find arms pulling her down again. Startled, she let out a squeak and found herself looking into laughing brown eyes.
"Little mouse is not allowed to leave."
Another pair of arms joined those of her mistress and she found herself being pulled onto her back and pinned to the mattress. Looking up, she found Willow smirking at her as talented hands began to stroke her body. She let out a soft moan as the seeking hands found her center and began to tease her. Wanting more, the brunette arched her hips only to find a pair of hands holding her down. Pouting, she looked over at Drusilla who held her down so she couldn't move as Willow teased her.
"Aww, is little mouse wanting more?"
Dawn let out a gasp as the redhead vamped out and gently scraped a fang over her sensitive nipple.
"What was that? I didn't quite hear you." Smirking to herself, Willow brushed a finger against the girl's throbbing clit as she continued to tease her. "Speak up little one."
"Please!"
"Please what?"
"Please, can I have some more?"
"Perhaps." Willow grinned at the distinctly pleading tone to Dawn's voice. Cooing softly, she let a fingertip brush over her center again and smiled sweetly down at her. With a swift sudden movement she leaned down and sank her fangs into the side of the girl's breast. Drinking deeply for a moment, she listen to the sweet sound of Dawn's scream before pulling back. "Now what is the lesson here?"
A soft whimper escaped Dawn's throat as she gazed up into amber eyes. "I don't know."
Laughing softly, the redhead slipped a finger into the girl's wet entrance and rubbed her thumb against the sensitive nub. "Think Dawn, think really hard." Shifting back to her human mask, she licked the blood from her lips. "It's really easy I promise."
Shocks of pleasure warred with the radiating pain from the bite and both emotions crashed through her body dulling her mind. Dawn let out a soft keening sound as Willow brushed against her clit again. Fighting through the fog of her thoughts, she tried to think what the vampiress was talking about when it suddenly occurred to her. Softly, she let out a hopeful whisper. "I don't leave without having permission?"
"Exactly!" Smiling brightly, she kissed her lover deeply. "Do you promise never to try that stunt again?"
"Yes."
"Good girl." She purred softly as she nodded at Drusilla. "Now don't you deserve a treat?" Laughing at the girl's answering nod, she stopped teasing Dawn and between Dru's mouth and her hands they quickly brought the girl to a mind blowing orgasm.
Slowly, the Key's breathing returned to normal as she came down from her pleasure induced high. Sighing softly, she sat up slowly and grinned ruefully at Willow. "So I have to ask to do everything?"
"You're a pet, what do you think?"
"May I leave now?" She directed her question at Drusilla who smiled and nodded her ascent. "Buffy's going to flip when she realizes I'm not at home or at school."
"And we couldn't have the almighty slayer upset could we?" Willow smirked at the look of irritation on Dawn's face. She might start to like the girl and she'd sleep with her, but it was simply too much fun to wind the girl into a really good fight. Of course then there's always the punishment aspect to it. That was always fun.
"The stars sing lovey." Drusilla swayed in placed as a dreamy distant look came over her face. "The nasty slayer is searching for my little mouse." Rage welled up in her as visions of blonde coming and taking her little mouse away filled her head. She wouldn't stand for it! Little mouse was hers and the slayer couldn't have her! Shrieking angrily, her power swelled out of control and shattered the growing collection of vases Willow had perched around the area.
"Dru!" Swiftly gathering her lover up in her arms she smoothed the brunette's hair down. "What's wrong love?"
"The Slayer's going to take my little mouse away. She can't have her! Little mouse is mine!"
"We have to send her home, Dru. Otherwise the plan won't work if the Slayer suspects something."
"She's mine! I won't have it!"
Sighing softly, she shook her head and looked at Dawn's bewildered face for a moment before turning her attention back to the vampiress in her arms. "She'll stay love, don't worry, she'll stay."
Dawn watched her mistress with a look of concern on her face. Rising slowly, she crawled over the silken sheets and hesitantly touched Drusilla's shoulder. "Mistress?"
The brunette vampire looked at her pet for a moment before pulling herself from Willow's arms and enveloping the girl in a kiss. There was no way she was going to let the Slayer break apart her family just after she got it started again. Growling softly, she slipped into her game face as she moved from Dawn's lips to the smooth skin of her neck. Sinking her fangs into the delicate skin, she ignored the girl's cry of pain and drank deeply. Sliding her fangs gently out of her pet's neck, she licked at the wound until it stopped bleeding. "You belong to me."
"Yes Mistress. I belong to you."
Smirking to herself, the redhead gently pulled Dawn away from her vampire lover. "Dru, your pet and I have some things to do now that night has fallen. I won't let the Slayer get her, stay here and play with Spike. We'll be back in a little bit." She looked at the Key's pale face. "Besides, I think she could stand to eat."
Drusilla smiled brightly. "Yes, Spikey has been a bad boy. Mummy must teach him another lesson." Humming softly to herself, she made her way into the backroom. It was time to play.
"Come on, little rat, we've got some errands to run."
"I'm not a rat!"
"You are whatever I want you to be, Dawnie. Remember that." Grabbing the girl's arm, she pulled her off the bed. "Now get dressed."
After both of them were clothed, Willow slipped her arm around Dawn's waist and gave her a roguish grin. "Time to fetch your stuff."
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nightfall found the blonde slayer pacing back in forth in her living room ranting to Xander and Giles. Hysteria began to bubble up as images of all the horrible things that could have happened to her sister began to assault her mind. "She hasn't been home and she hasn't been at school. I've checked everywhere I could but I can't find her. Oh god, what if a demon got to her?"
"What demon?" Dawn strolled into the room and looked at them with an amused smile. It was definitely fun to play with their minds. "Did Buffy go and boff Angel again?"
"Dawn!"
"Where the hell have you been?"
"Hello Dawn."
Giggling softly to herself, she dropped into a free chair and smiled angelically. "Well, see there was this guy."
Relief was soon followed by anger and Buffy crossed her arms over her chest. "I don't care if it was the King of Siam, you are in so much trouble. How could you do this? We've been so worried about you!"
"Oh, don't get your knickers in a bunch." Rolling her eyes, she moved her attention to Giles and smiled brightly. "Hey Giles, bet you missed all the drama."
Giles gave her a stern look and pulled off his glasses absently to clean them. "Dawn, you should have called and told someone where you were. It's not proper to disappear."
Sighing, she tucked a lock of hair behind her hair and turned to Xander. "I suppose you're going to be a tight ass about this as well?"
"Dawn, don't swear." Sighing roughly, Xander gave her his best 'you don't writ, e you don't call and you're in so much trouble' look. "It's not cool to disappear like that, Dawn. It's too dangerous around here."
"Oh, because you're afraid that Willow is going to show up and take revenge upon us all?" Shrugging she stood and made her way out of the room. "This I don't need to take. I'm old enough to do what I want."
"Dawn, get back here! You are so grounded!"
"Sure, whatever, Buffy." Arching an eyebrow at her sister, she smiled sweetly. "And what are you going to do if I try and leave? You know you can't touch me, child abuse and all. What would Daddy say?"
"Dad doesn't give a shit about us."
"And whose fault is that?"
Horror struck Buffy just stood and watched her sister disappear up the stairs before wrapping her arms around herself. "That isn't my fault."
"Buffy?"
The blonde turned to find Xander looking at her sadly and holding his arms out. Stifling a sob, she let herself be pulled into a hug. They stood there until they heard the sound of Dawn coming down the stairs. Looking up, she found that her sister was carrying a duffle bag with her. "Dawn what are you doing?"
"I'm leaving what does it look like?"
"You can't leave!"
"Try me."
Wrenching herself from Xander's arms, Buffy grabbed onto her sister's arm and shook her gently. "You are not leaving! I don't know what happened to you in the past few days but I won't allow it."
Dawn looked down at her arm and then up at her sister's face. "Don't touch me."
"Get your bag and go back upstairs. You're grounded."
"I said don't touch me!"
"Now, Dawn."
Angrily, she dropped her bag and spun out of Buffy's arms; with a strength born of being really pissed off, she pulled back and punched her sister in the stomach. Bending down to pick up her bag, she gave everyone a cold glare and walked out of the door.
Buffy stood rooted to the spot, shock spread over her features as she whispered softly. "She hit me."
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Willow stepped out of the bushes and grinned at the girl before her. "Impressive, I didn't think you'd really hit her."
"I don't think it really hurt, mostly she's probably shocked." Shrugging, Dawn grinned impishly and adjusted the duffle bag on her shoulder. "Come on, we need to go before she breaks out of the shock."
"Telling me what to do now?"
Wincing at the dangerous sound of the vampire's voice, Dawn smiled weakly. She really didn't want to piss of Willow at the moment even if it did annoy the hell out of her that she had to act submissive. "No, just a suggestion."
"Yes, I'm sure it was." Smirking to herself, Willow turned and walked off. It really was a lot of fun to play with Dawn. "Come on."
~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You want me to what?" Dawn stared at the redheaded vampire in disbelief. It had been a month of living with the two vampires and due to Willow putting up a masking spell, Buffy hadn't found her. Her lessons had continued, which really just meant lots of sex and getting accustomed to the more hedonistic side of life. In the meantime, Willow had apparently decided that she was tired of living in the crypt and had been a busy girl. "You bought a club and you want me to sing in it?"
"Did you completely forget Sweet? I know you can sing and besides you'd be a temptation to all the naughty little demons in the audience."
Casting a pleading glance at Drusilla, Dawn shook her head. "I can't! What if Buffy finds the club? She'd take me away and kill you both. Much of the not good."
"She won't find the club, I've made sure of it. Now don't worry your pretty little head about it." Casting a glance around the building she had bought and then paid a lot of money to have renovated in only a month's time, she sighed. Dawn was being difficult. She needed an act and it wasn't as if Willow could appear in front of the demons of the club. Word would get back to the Slayer and then she'd have to inflict lots of pain upon the demon population in general and that just took too much time. "I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. You are going to sing."
"What am I going to sing?"
"Whatever I tell you to sing." Picking up a stack of papers, she handed them to Dawn and smiled sweetly. "For the opening, I want something primal that pulls to the audience. Something pagan and hedonistic, you know what demons like."
"You keep saying demons, what kind of club is this anyways?"
"Specifically for creatures of the night only. Demons, witches, warlocks and so on." Willow grinned wickedly. "Did you really expect me to have a club for mortal teenagers?"
Rolling her eyes, Dawn sighed and looked at the papers which turned out to be a stack of musical scores. "I have to learn all of these?"
"The first three actually, you don't have to perform all the time. I've got a DJ lined up for the rest of the time. Oh, and the first one you have to sing because it's what the club is named after."
Glancing at the title of the song, Dawn read over the words and grinned. "Kiss of Hades? Well I do suppose it suits you." Gathering up the papers, she handed them to the redhead. "I'm going to go find Dru. I'll grab these later."
Willow watched Dawn walk off and turned her attention to the musical score lying on her lap. Tracing the words, she smiled happily. Things were going quite well, she had a family and she now had a home. Humming the tune to herself, she sang the first few verses as she stood and went off to finds her lovers.
The night is cold and filled with pain And a cruel wind drives home a bitter rain But underneath this neon lights A dream away is Paradise Come and take the kiss of Hades
Smiling possessively, Willow crossed her legs as she retreated back into her thoughts. Surprisingly, Dawn was starting to grow on her. Wickedly she grinned as images of the delights of the night filled her head. Flashes of skin, soft moans of pleasure and naughty whisperings.
