Very Bad Puppy
by Zzilly14


"Puppy has a visitor!" Willow smiled wickedly from outside the cage.

Angel could barely hold himself up as he glared into his captor's eyes. "I don't care, Red."

"But you should," said a soft familiar voice. His eyes widened as his sire walked into his cell.

She crouched down and stroked the wounds on his chest. "I can make the pain go away," she whispered. "We can be together again."

He stared into her eyes. "Darla..."

"Yes?" she smiled.

"I'd rather stake myself," he spat.

She got up angrily and turned to Willow. "It's my turn to play with Puppy."
