Cordelia's New Obsession Book1: Chapter 2

I don't own them and never will. It's just not fair I tell you, not fair! Damn you Joss!

ymarti89- Wait no longer. Here is the next chapter for you; thanks again for the wonderful reviews it gave me a happy.

Harry2- You are like on of my biggest supporters. The suspense is going to kill you just a little bit more. I'm not going to make it that easy.

Jenny and Lindsey entered the Giles home. Lindsey was trying to keep her aunt occupied from any thoughts concerning Buffy. Drusilla should be joining them soon enough, and then the fun can begin. He didn't want to kill his mother, and he wasn't going to, but she couldn't stand in the way of Cordelia's plan for the blonde Wicca.

"When did Buffy say she was coming home?" The elder witch asked.

"She told me to tell you that she was going to crash with Cordelia tonight. They want to celebrate her winning Homecoming. You know how girls are?" He lied, he really couldn't tell her the truth.

Jenny walked upstairs to change her clothes. Lindsey sensed that Drusilla was near and he opened up the door. He gave her a passionate kiss on the lips, as long as they have been dating, they still couldn't get enough of each other.

"Did you take Buffy to her?" Lindsey asked.

Drusilla let out a huge smile, "Yep, our girl should be getting the awakening of our lifetime."

"Is she going to turn her before she takes her virginity or do it after?" The vampire questioned.

Drusilla was a little freaked, the way he was obsessing about his cousin's virginity. It made her wonder what kind of relationship they had growing up. She decided to shrug it off and worry about it later.

"I don't know, and frankly I don't care. Where is your mother?" She changed the subject.

"She went upstairs to change. I think tonight's festivities went pretty well."

"Did you see the other girls faces when Buffy won? That was priceless." Drusilla laughed.

Jenny made her way back downstairs and spotted Drusilla sitting on the chair.

"Hello Dru." She greeted the vampiress.

"Good evening Jenny. Did you enjoy tonight's festivities?" She asked the older woman.

"Yeah, I did. Buffy looked so beautiful up there, I took plenty of pictures to send her mother." She smiled.

Jenny was very proud of her niece and she was mad at her sister. Joyce has a very special and talented daughter, but she chose to leave her because of what she is. Right now she is missing out on some very important things in her life. If Buffy was her daughter then she would be there every step of the way. The High Priestess' always knew that she was going to defy all rules and do things her way.

"Yes, she did. I think the dress really made her stand out, after all she was the only one wearing white." Lindsey added.

"Buffy saw the dress and said she had to have it. I liked it because it made her look innocent and pure, plus it showed that she was on the side of good and not some vapid whore of evil."

'If you only knew.' Drusilla thought. Lindsey had to try and hide his smile, Buffy wasn't going to be so innocent in a little while.

"So what do you two have planned tonight?"

"We are going to crash here tonight. Cordelia has something special planned for Buffy and we don't want to intrude." Drusilla answered.

Jenny raised an eyebrow at this announcement. She wondered what the vampire had in mind.

"They are having a very romantic dinner, a little candle light, music, apple cider you know the usual couple things." Lindsey answered.

"It's like you read my mind. I just get overly concerned where Buffy is concerned. I'm going to leave you two alone. I am going to bed, its way past my bed time. Lindsey you know where everything is. Good night."

Jenny headed up the stairs and into her room. She decided to forgo the whole looking glass spell. She trusted Buffy and in a way she trusted Cordelia. With that thought out of her head she climbed in her bed and fell into a fitful sleep.

Cordelia's Mansion

Cordelia led Buffy to the other side of the room, where a table for two was set up. Buffy admired the beauty of the table, the fine china, and the crystal. The vampire moved behind the blonde and pulled out her chair.

"Go ahead and sit down. Dinner will be served in just a few minutes."

Buffy sat down and Cordelia pushed in her chair. Slowly she moved to the other side of the table and sat herself down. She filled the crystal flutes with some champagne and Buffy took a sip.

"I didn't get a chance to tell you, I really like your dress and the tiara fits it very well." She told her honestly.

"Thanks, I think so myself. How many rooms are in here?" Buffy asked in wonderment

"I think there is like eight, plus a few hidden rooms. I'm not sure."

The cook came out with a tray of food and began putting it on Buffy's plate. Buffy waited until she was finished before eating. She noticed Cordelia's plate was empty save a piece of rare steak.

"You need more energy than I do. What I have planned for you will take a lot out of you." She told her cryptically.

That sent chills down Buffy's spine and she began eating. The vampire was engaging her in all types of conversation until she had finished eating. Cordelia got up and reached for Buffy's hand. She put her hand in the vampires and was led back to the bed.

"You said earlier that you want to take the next step, are you sure about that?" She asked with a little bit of mischief.

Buffy suddenly became nervous, "Yeah, I'm ready. I've never been so ready in my life."

Cordelia tried to hide her happiness, but found it hard. Tonight was definitely the night, but before they could take that step, she needed to complete the ritual.

"I know you're ready, but there is a ritual I want for us to perform. It's called a bonding ritual; I want you to be mine completely. Once this is done, you will not want anyone but me. You will be mine and I will be yours for eternity, we will be married until one of us dies." She told her under no uncertain terms.

Buffy took all of this in; right now she really didn't care. She loved Cordelia and nothing or no one else mattered anymore. It went against everything she was taught, but her father told her to listen to her heart. At the moment her heart was telling her that this was right.

"Let's do it. I love you and I want to be with you forever. What exactly do we have to do?"

The vampiress had a smile the size of the Nile on her face. She had no doubts that Buffy would go along with this. She pulled out a jewel encrusted dagger and a chalice. It was just like the one Buffy saw in her dream.

"We are going to use this dagger to cut a little slit into our hands. A little bit of our blood will drip into the chalice, we will join hands while I chant the incantation, then we will both drink our combined blood. We will be bonded, but we won't be completely bonded until we consummated our marriage. You can back out of this at anytime, but it's not what you really want is it?" She wanted to make sure that the Wicca was behind this all the way.

"Let's do it, I love you and I want you and only you. I need you, without you I feel empty and incomplete. I've never tasted blood before; at least I don't think so." She said a little confused.

"You have my love. I've been giving it to you little by little, so you would be used to it when we did this. I wanted you to enjoy the blood as much as I did, and you my dear have a taste for it." She grinned wickedly.

Cordelia drug the knife along the palm of her hand and did the same to Buffy's. She let out a little yelp of pain and had to keep herself for licking it off. The vampire smiled when she saw this. They put both of their hands over the chalice and watched the blood drip into it and mix with whatever else is in there. Cordelia moved their hands away and they clasped them together and she began to chant.

Heart to thee
Body to thee
Always and forever
So mote it be.

Buffy could feel the exchange going through her. It surrounded her with a kind of peace and warmth. Like she knew that she would be loved as long as she should live. Cordelia broke their hands and handed Buffy the chalice.

"Drink my darling girl and we will be one."

Buffy put it up to her mouth and began to drink. She handed it to Cordelia and she did the same once it was empty she set it aside and moved closer to Buffy. They shared a chaste kiss which spun out of control to something more.

"All in due time sweetheart, but right now you and I are going to take a bath. I want to enjoy your warmth just a little while longer."

The vampiress began removing Buffy's dress strap by strap until it pooled at her feet. It took all of her will power not to cover herself. As many times as they have seen each other naked, she was still nervous.

"There is nothing to be nervous about. We've done this before it's nothing different." She reassured the girl.

"Now I would like for you to undress me as I have undressed you." The vampire instructed her.

Buffy looked at her incredulously. 'I know she did not just say undress her', she thought. Cordelia saw her hesitation and decided to explain what it is that she's supposed to do.

"I know it seems weird, but in the way of vampires it's the consort's job to do things for their lover. You will learn all of this in due time, now undress me or I would have to punish you. That is something I really don't want to do."

This caused Buffy to get her butt in gear. She remembered the last time she was punished; she couldn't sit down properly for a week. Not to mention all of the other things that happened. After she undressed her lover, Cordelia led her to the bathroom that was off of the room they just exited. The décor was totally different from the bedroom, the bathroom was blue and silver, the tub was white porcelain with claw legs to hold it into place. Buffy saw that there was already water inside with rose petals, and little tea light floating candles on top of the water. Cordelia got into the bathtub first and held out her hand for the blonde to join her. Without hesitation she got into the tub and sat down between her lovers legs.

"I've been waiting for this for so long. I've traveled across the world in search of you. The first time I actually laid eyes on you, you were nine years old. I think you were outside playing with Xander, Willow, and Faith I believe and sitting on the porch was Lindsey. He was watching you as always, ever the protector."

"Lindsey wouldn't let us out of his sight for anything. He called me the most precious gift to the world. I didn't know he meant literally." She smiled.

"I watched you play, such a picture of innocence. Not aware of all the Big Bads who were after you. I felt the power on you, only you weren't aware of your potential." She whispered.

"How come you didn't introduce yourself then?" Buffy asked out of curiosity.

"You were too young, as vampire law has it, you can't turn a child because they wouldn't be able to defend themselves. Besides I wanted you to enjoy the world the way a child should. I came back from time to time just to check on you, and you just continued to get more beautiful by the day. You were your father's world and for a minute I wanted you to be mine, but then again you were too young."

Cordelia picked up the bathing sponge and put some body wash on it. She lathered it up and began to wash Buffy slowly, while still talking to her. Buffy was getting lost in the sensations her lover was causing.

"I saw one particular moment it was your tenth birthday, and you were upset because you didn't get the Bratz dolls that you wanted, instead you got my scene Barbie's."

"I remember I went up to my room and saw a package on my window ledge, I opened it and there was all four Bratz Dolls with accessories. She smiled at the memory.

"Even then I wanted to keep you happy. I want to make you happy now; will you allow me to do that?"

Instead of an answer she received a moan. (Insert imagination right about here. After all I have to keep it readable for everyone. I have a much steamier version on my computer hard drive.)

The vampire finished washing her from head to toe and then handed it to the younger girl. Buffy took the sponge and put some body wash on it and began to wash Cordelia off the same way that she had washed her. It was driving her crazy the way she would purr in contentment. She washed her a few more times until she was told to stop.

"Very good lover, you will get the hang of it. Bathing can be a very sensual thing." She got out of the bathtub.

Buffy got out behind her on shaky legs; she couldn't trust herself to walk. Cordelia grabbed them both a towel and dried Buffy off. She handed the other towel to the girl and Buffy began to dry the vampire off.

"Very good, you are going to be easy to teach. Let out the bath water and come back into the room. No towel, I want nothing between me and that beautiful body of yours."

She turned and walked out of the room, leaving Buffy to her duties. Without hesitation she let the water out of the tub, and cleaned up the water that splashed on the floor. She put the towels in the hamper and went into the bedroom. The lights were off, and the only thing bathing the room in light was candles. Cordelia was lying in the middle of the bed with nothing, but herself.

"I told you tonight is just for you. It's the wedding night that you won't be able to experience. I want us to enjoy ourselves, for later I have plans huge plans."

Buffy made her way over to the bed, and Cordelia handed her a glass of champagne. She took the proffered glass and held it up. They intertwined their arms and drank from each other's glasses.

Giles House

Drusilla and Lindsey were making out like two hormonally challenged teenagers. It's been a while since they were able to touch each other like they wanted to. Tonight there would be no interruptions, so they thought. A knock on the door separated them, Drusilla let out a disappointed sigh as Lindsey got up to answer the door.

"Faith, what are you doing here? You're supposed to be dead." He said in surprise.

At hearing the girls name Drusilla got up and almost fainted when she did see the brunette slayer standing there.

"I know, but I need to speak to Buffy. Where is she?" She asked.

Lindsey and Drusilla exchanged glances, "We're not sure. She's supposed to be partying the night away after her win. You didn't answer my question, why are you alive and here?" He asked again.

"I was sent here, by the powers and the elders. I'm Buffy's guardian I watch over her, but technically I'm not Faith. My name is Gabrielle Marquez, don't ask. I need to talk to Buffy; Willow is missing from the institution." She blurted out.

Lindsey and Drusilla exchanged glances again and turned back to the girl.

"Missing? That's not possible; Buffy went to see her yesterday." Lindsey answered.

"Between yesterday and today, she has gone missing. When you see her tell her to meet me here." She handed Lindsey a card with and address on it.

Without so much as a good bye she left the house. Lindsey put the card in his pocket, the conversation forgot about.

"You think she will figure it out will you?" Drusilla asked.

"No, they are sent her to watch witches, not regular humans. Now where were we?"

They began to kiss passionately. All thoughts of the night out of the window.
