Ch. 8

The Relationship

The weekend ended before Sora wanted it to. Cloud made a program for him, and spent a full hour going over it with him in the gym. Sora was starting to feel confident in his ability and luckily, Riku promised that he would go to the gym with him. They did not talk about the vampire business, how Sora found how strange it was at how quickly he has gotten used to it. They did, however, focused on Sora's insecurities and what Riku can do to help.

It was a week after Cloud and Leon's visit, and the two boys were in Sora's room. "Baby, come here," Riku said, sitting on Sora's bed. Sora moved and relaxed in Riku's arms. "Kitten, I want to be serious about something," Riku said.

"What is it?" Sora asked, looking up at his boyfriend.

"Your body, your weight," Riku said, playing with Sora's hair to keep him calm. "I want to know what I can do to help…"

Sora frowned, he looked down at hist body. "I don't know," he whispered, "I feel so uncomfortable at times…"

"Can you explain, kitten?" Riku asked softly.

Sora frowned and looked down at his body. "I'm… I feel like I'm too small, restrictive but I'm afraid of going back to how I was at my lowest." Riku nodded and moved his hands so that they were on top of Sora's body.

"Kitten," he ordered in a calm voice, "take my hands and show me what would make you feel more comfortable." Sora nodded he placed his hands over Riku's and moved them first to his chest. "These… I feel restrictive, too light," Sora said, "like my body and heart are trapped inside." Riku nodded and silently urged Sora to continue. They moved down his body, "I look so unhealthy," Sora said sullenly. "Skin and bones and nothing more…"

A question came into Riku's mind. He thought for a second about it before asking cautiously, "Sora… do you feel uncomfortable… with your gender?"

"Huh? No," Sora said, "I'm a boy, I… I don't want to be a girl, I just want to be…" Sora frowned, "I mean I like my panties; I really do and… and I might want to wear more stuff like that but…"

"You're my boy," Riku said, "you can dress up in whatever you want kitten, but you'll always be my boy." Sora smiled and nodded in relief. Riku continued, "So you feel uncomfortably small?"

"I guess… it's hard to explain because I like being small and fitting in slim stuff, but it just doesn't feel me," Sora said.

"Okay," Riku nodded, "We can work on it." He moved his hands to Sora's chest and squeezed them in his hands, kneading the flesh through Sora's clothes as he bit Sora's ear, "We're going to make your chest as big as we can before you're comfortable with them," he whispered, "and we're going to get you bras to wear with them, would you like that kitten? More fem clothes to wear? Enough to be my pretty boy?"

Sora blushed but nodded. Riku bit his ear again, "I need words, boy," he said.

"Yes—"

"Yes who?" Riku asked, squeezing hard.

"Yes Master," Sora groaned. Riku smirked and softened his hold.

"Good boy," he said. He moved Sora so they could lay down comfortably with Sora in his arms. Sora looked up at Riku with a pensive look. "Hmm?"

"I was um… thank you," Sora blushed. Riku smiled. "But I was just… I couldn't help but wonder… you're over two hundred years old," Sora continued.

"I am," Riku nodded.

"Why are you still in college?" Sora asked.

Riku snickered, "Would you rather I still be in high school?"

"No, no, no," Sora said a bit too quickly. Riku laughed and shook his head.

"It's okay to be curious about it kitten," he said, playing with Sora's hair again. "You can ask anything you want."

"I can?"

"Yes kitten," Riku said, "you're my mate, we belong to each other."

Sora gave a relieved smile, "Then why are you still in college?" he asked.

"It's not like I'm still in college, but more like I chose to go back again," Riku said. "I… tend to forget things and I just have a natural thirst to learn. I could have gone down the road one of my thralls have and become a professor at the college, but that would be a bit too restrictive I think. So every now and again I decided to go back, try a new major and learn what I can. I have a whole bookcase of notebooks actually."

"But it's so expensive!" Sora gasped.

Riku nodded and turned a bit pink, "There's a reason baby why I'm called the Prince of Vampires here," he said. "I'm not at all related to Dracula or anything—though I heard his son is a very handsome man—but around here… my father used to rule this land, just as he ruled the vampires." Riku hesitated before saying vaguely, "It goes without saying that the title comes with money."

"What are the thralls you talked of?" Sora asked.

"They are the ones whom I have turned," Riku said. "So far… I've turned around twelve people myself into vampires, however there are a lot more in this city. Axel, actually, is one of them."

"He is?" Sora gasped.

"Mm hm, one of the first ones actually," Riku said. "You could say that he is sort of a bodyguard or sorts. He certainly dresses the part."

"Yeah," Sora nodded. "Umm is Roxas—"

"Roxas is human," Riku said, "but he knows about us. It is up to Axel to turn him if he wants to."

"How does it work?" Sora asked. "How… how will you turn me?"

"Kitten," Riku mewled, "Kitten, that is far, far away. I will not turn you, no. Not until you want it, not until you are comfortable in who you are."

"But I still want to know," Sora said. "Pleas Master," he mewled.

Riku looked down at Sora's pleading eyes and willed his cock to stay calm. "Okay," he nodded. "There are a couple ways, the normal way to turn and the way I'm going to turn you. First way, how I turned Axel, was sucking his blood, all of it. I brought him to a near death state, he barely had blood to live as I gave him my influence, something in my fangs, a poison that secretes into the veins every time I drink. With small drinks, like I did with you my love, there is barely enough to do anything. But when it is the only thing running in the veins, it has time to take root and foster. Axel was sick for weeks. I took care of him in that time, make sure the villagers didn't learn. This was back in a time where he was feared too, just because of his hair color and preference. He was my friend growing up and I didn't want to leave him. So, I took his blood, turned him into a vampire until my control, my thrall. When he got better, he was stronger, faster, healthier than he has ever been before. And ever since then we've been with each other, as best friends as well as a Prince and his bodyguard."

"Woah…" Sora said softly, "Will I… do I—"

"No my kitten, for you, your change will be more personal," Riku said. "I will drain your blood, yes, but I will also fill you with my seed. In doing both, my poison will hold you quickly, the shift will be faster, and you will be mine completely."

Sora couldn't help but smile at that, he looked up at Riku the best he could, their eyes meeting. "I want that," he whispered, "I want you to own me."

"And I will baby," Riku said, "but first, I want you to have a body you can be comfortable with." Sora nodded and closed his eyes, contend in his mate's arms. Enticed by Riku's hold and the soft movements of his chest as he breathed, Sora slowly drifted to sleep.

Sora's life soon fell into a comfortable routine. He was going to school, hanging out with friends, going to work and going to the gym with his boyfriend. He felt that for the first time he was actually living, actually experiencing what he was supposed to be, and it was all thanks to his love, his Riku. The months started to meld together as their first semester seemingly flew by, and before Sora knew it the days were growing shorter, the sun was barely a myth in the afternoons and as the temperature dropped, Sora could feel like Riku and Axel were getting stronger, or at least more active.

It was the beginning of December now. Snow was falling from the grey skies, groups of people were huddled together, bundled up with scarves and heavy jackets, and Roxas had a devilish idea. At the end of their shift for the week, Roxas took both his check and Sora's and wrapped an arm around his friend, "New blood," he cheered, "finals are near which only means one thing!"

"We're going to study?" Sora suggested.

"No! We're going to a bar to get drunk! Come on," Roxas cheered, "Axel is bringing us—and don't worry about the age crap, we got something to slip you pass that!"

Sora giggled and smiled at his friend, "Does Riku know?" he asked.

"No, he'll only sour our party," Roxas said, "Come on new blood, we deserve to get drunk and loose for one night before having to focus on actually studying for finals."

"Okay," Sora said, "Sounds like fun."

"Excellent! Get your best pair of panties, some leather and I'll pick you up tonight!" Roxas cheered, "See you Sora!" Sora watched Roxas run off excitedly, a phone already by his ear as the realization of what he agreed to hit him. However, he did not feel scared like he thought he would, instead, interestingly, he felt excited, really excited. Giggling to himself, Sora ran off to make his way home. After all, he had to find his best panties and leather to wear.
