Demyx's P.O.V
I wake up before Saix the next morning. He must have stayed the night after, I'm pretty sure, I passed out after the prior night's heated events. He's sleeping where Axel would sleep, using my pillows, my sheets, leaving his scent everywhere so I know my dominant. I slowly slide from the bed and he doesn't stir. He's out of it, probably dreaming of doing me in some other world or position by the hard on he has making a tent under the sheets.
I shake my head, pull on some pants and head to the bathroom. Might as well not shower, I'll need once he wakes up anyway. I haven't noticed how much I let the stress catch up with me. I look like some kind of ghoul what with the dark grey patches under my eyes, unkempt hair and stress lines. I splash water on to my face letting the cold water run down the brim of my nose to clink in the sink. "I just don't know how much more I can do this…" I quietly tell the sink.
Arms are suddenly around me; a hand slapped over my mouth and my arms pinned to my side. I panic instantly and struggle uselessly. I think it's Saix but it's not him who pins me on a bed under him.
Axel looks down at me, his eyes narrowed—serious.
He pulls back his hand and quickly replaces it with his hot, soft lips. I freeze, than melt. I kiss back in a beat with the longing for these lips since my enslavement. The longing for the heat they radiate through my core. The longing to be held by him. My arms wrap around his neck tightly as his own wind themselves around my waist. My body's too hot, but I love it. It's the heat of Axel's fire boiling my water in to a steaming romance.
Then I remember Saix.
"Nnn… Axel… I… boyfriend…" I murmur while barely parting my lips from his. I try to hang on to the lie even while clinging to him.
"I know." He mumbles through a catch for air. His tongue slips past my lips—I moan and hook a leg on his sharp hip. He pulls back finally and hugs me tight to him. "Demyx, I know it's Saix.
My eyes go wide. "H-H-how…?"
"I heard you last night. I saw you last night." He holds me tighter. "Demyx I saw you doing it with him last him. I can piece together that you've been trapped like this since you were kidnapped. I know you're suffering so please… stop lying to me…" He's shaking. I can't see the face pressed to my cheek but I can feel a light moisture that isn't sweat. He's missed me more than I ever imagined he would. And he saw Saix and I… but the bad timing is what I needed.
"I… I'm sorry…" I nuzzle him. "I…I'm scared… I'm scared to disobey him…"
"I'll help you get out of this."
"He'll shock me… he'll hurt me. He… he has too much power I-I have to do what he wants…" I feel my own eyes start to water.
"What do you mean shock?" Axel sounds worried.
"M-my choker… it's a shock collar. If I disobey him he shocks me. I was wrapped in an entire ribbon of this when he kidnapped me. He would shock me with real electricity till I gave in. Till I became his pet. Till I was only able to depend on him…" Tears roll down my cheeks. Axel wipes the tears with the sleeve of his stripped pj top.
"Can you take it off?"
"I'm scared…"
"Then I'll take it off for you." He reaches for my collar.
"No!" I panic. "S-Saix is asleep in my room… if he wakes up an sees me without it… he might do something worse than…"
"Than this?" Axel runs his fingertips over the "mine" on my stomach. "I can read what it says now."
"Y-yes… H-he might find a way to really turn me in to his pet… I…I've been fine the way things are…"
"No, you aren't." Axel looks stern at me.
"I… can't escape it… I have to follow my Master…"
I could have my escape right in front of me but I'm still terrified to disobey Saix. I thought Axel would yell at me but instead he kisses me again, gentle and tender, a kiss I could never get enough of.
"I'm going to get you out of this, Demyx. I didn't believe you in the alley, that's how you ended up in this situation to begin with. I couldn't find you, even when you were in this Castle and sent me a water blob. I couldn't piece together why you were acting the way you were until now. I've been the worst lover by not being able to protect you. But if I can find a way to rescue you now, maybe…" He rests his forehead on my shoulder. "You'll give me another chance to prove how much I really do love you." Steam rises from Axel. I'm not the only one who's been keeping emotions bottled deep inside me.
"How…?" I can only ask that.
"I'll find a way, Dem. I'll think of a way. I'll do anything in order to bring back those mornings when you wake me up just to comb my hair."
I nod slowly. "Think it through." I whisper and kiss his ear. If he challenges Saix I want him to have a plan, not go in blind and become a Dusk. "I love you."
"I love you more than I should." He replies.
We share another deep tender kiss before I have to force myself away and back to Saix. I decide to take a quick shower first. If Saix were to catch Axel's scent so deeply melded with my own then there won't be a need for a rescue plan. But I was right about Saix once I returned to my room. Once he saw me I was pinned under him and thrust in to roughly for a morning session. I really wish I was able to keep my voice down better, for Axel's sake…
We're in the Training Room, I'm propped up on a ledge, my pants hanging off one leg, legs wide open as Saix sucks me rough. I don't know how we ended up here, just the sensation of his hot mouth and sharp canines rubbing against my inflamed organ. Saix would never kneel in front of me, so I have to be elevated to his eye level. I really don't care. I just want to wrap my own mouth around him.
"Nn… Ma-Master… I want… yours… hah…" I jerk when he bites the soft sensitive head.
"What's that, my pet?" He curls his tongue around my tip as he speaks. "You're drooling. Are you hungry too?" I nod, unable to form words. He grins and pulls me from the ledge down to my knees in front of him. I work quickly to open his cloak and free his hard shaft from its confines. I couldn't get it in my mouth faster. "Yes, that's it." He grabs my hair, which encourages me to suck harder and with greater greed. "You're turning faster and faster each day." He grunts, moving his hips back and forth, doing my mouth as I suck and bite till I feel his salty seed creep down my throat.
I stand and press my hands to the wall, jut my rear out back at him and moan. "Master please… fill me…" I didn't have to ask him twice. As he pounds away in me the sliver remnants of my good judgement questions me, accusing me, telling me off, then cries as it shrinks the more and more my sexual drive consumes it. I want the pleasure only my Master can give me. "I love you, Master!" I start to recite my lines before he asks. "I only want you and your cock! It's all I want! I'll never speak out of line! Please! Don't stop!"
That sets him off on some rapid thrusts. All I hear is gun slapping skin on skin until I scream out my hot release and feel myself fill again with his seed which has settled in the pit of my stomach from before. I pant heavily. I want to taste his tongue now. I lean my head back and just as he's about to claim my moist lips…
"Saix!"
A voice interrupts us. Usually I'd be worried, but my mind is so lust filled right now I could care less if we were doing it in the middle of the street. Master looks back an grins.
"Well well well. Looks like the cat's out of the bag." Master seems more amused than worried.
"Get away from him, now!" I think I recognize that voice.
"So sorry." Master teases. "But if he isn't properly satisfied he'll be a grumpy boo all day." He's mocking the other who interrupted us.
"Don't talk to me like that! He doesn't want to be with you and you know it!" the other voice yells.
"Then we'll let him decide." Master pulls out of me, making me shudder, and turns me around to face the other, a fiery red head who seems ready to kill.
"Nine, this is Axel, number Eight of our Organization. He believes you love him. But we both know who you really love, right? Now pick."
I look up at my Master than back to Axel. He looks familiar, but Master's shaft hanging in front of him is more familiar to me. I drop to my knees and begin cleaning the soft organ, not caring of the other watching. Master doesn't seem to care.
"Demyx!" The red head's eyes are wide, surprised.
"You see, Lea? I'm who he wants. Isn't that right, my pet?"
I finish cleaning and turn around doggie style and whimper. "Master, please…"
"Demyx!"
"You have your answer. Now why don't you leave and let me finish with him before he goes jerking himself off in desperation?" Master turns to me.
"No!" Axel raises his arms to summon two flaming chakrams. "I promised Demyx this morning I was going to save him. I am going to save him."
"So, a secret meeting?" Master fixes his clothes, hiding his spear I'm craving deeply back in its hideaway than summons his own weapon, a large spiked claymore. "Fix yourself, pet. You and I are going to have a long chat about this once you come to your senses. I'll make sure to convince you never to talk to anyone ever again."
I jolt. Master is angry with me but for why, I don't remember. I fix myself quickly and sit pressed against the wall keeping my head down submissively.
"You." He looks to Axel. "I thought I'd be generous and only torture you with seeing what you couldn't have, but now I see it wasn't the right choice. Now I know the only thing for you is to never see him at all!"
He rushes to Axel, claymore raised and brings it down over the red haired other. Axel easily blocks with his twin chakrams, pushing back with his own strength. Their weapons clink and clang against each other as both try to out match their opponent. Both follow each others movements equally to overpower the opposing strikes swiftly. Axel spins one chakram and shoots a radiating fireball towards Master, but with an easy swing of his claymore Master slices the fireball in half, burning it out.
"Is this it?" Master taunts. "I thought you'd have more fire in you after seeing me screw him."
"Just you wait." Axel's eyes narrow to a sharper line. He spins his chakrams incredibly fast, barely holding on to their handles. I'm amazed he doesn't drop them or they go flying. As they spin they start to accumulate flames that grow with each twist. The crackling of flames sounds louder and louder till it sounds like an invisible forest is being consumed by the spinning flames, which have now coated the chakrams entirely, even made their size seem to grow with the accumulated flames. He snaps the chakrams together over his head causing the entire room to fill with spiraling fire walls. I yelp, but none of the fire walls aim at me, they're all surrounding Master, trying to keep him from moving.
"I see." Master says calmly as he looks around the flame filled room. "You're trying to single me out in a trap I'm not supposed to be able to escape."
"This is my best defensive attack." Axel replies, still holding his spinning flaming chakrams over his head. "My flames are too hot for even your cold soul to pass through. And the more oxygen it takes from you, the weaker you get."
"Your determination is amusing, but there are faults with your attack. One, your patience towards the flames consuming the oxygen I need till I faint."
"I can wait out as long as it takes." Axel pushes out more flames to the walls.
"Two, this attack is more for doubles. You can't move from that stance, otherwise the flame walls fall. So you needed someone else to attack me."
"I don't care if I stay like this till me shoulders lock. And you're my fight. I'll wait till you knock out like I said." Axel stands straighter.
"And three, I may not be able to pass safely, but my weapon can." Master launches his claymore through the flames right at Axel's open chest.
The flame walls fall with the clatter of Axel's chakrams. Master leaps forward like an animal freed from its cage. He grabs his claymore and starts swinging the blunt end against Axel's defenseless body. Axel has no choice but to take the blows one after the other. He's pushed back with each blow, one solid one to his stomach forces out blood to paint his pale lips.
"I've always wanted to see you writhe under me." Master growls, his teeth sharp, and hits Axel's stomach again. Axel gags on the blood dripping from his mouth that splashes on to the glimmering claymore he's hunched over. Master grabs the spiky fiery red locks of his live punching bag, threatening to tear them from his scalp, just like when he punished me. "Is this what you imagined would happen when you challenged me?" Master asks as he roughly pulls back Axel's head. "Because it sure met my expectations."
"G-go to hell…" Axel chokes out before hacking up more blood.
"You'll be going somewhere worse." Master growls, digging his clawed nails in to the back of Axel's neck. Axel grits his bloody teeth, refusing to show any reaction to Master.
I don't like this…
Shrugging, Master sinks his sharp canines right in to Axel's throat.
"Gah!" Axel reacts that time as Saix bites deeper with enough pressure to steadily draw blood down Axel's neck.
Saix smirks, throwing another hard hit with his claymore to Axel's stomach before letting the wounded body fall at his feet. Axel doesn't move. He doesn't know pain like this; the feeling of blood forced from your throat, that bitter iron taste that never leaves your tongue, the thudding pain from hit after hit that feels like constant shocks, and especially not the pain of being bitten so hard in such a sensitive place. Axel's never suffered like this.. except now… for me…
"Well, you sure have made a mess. It's going to take a lot of cleaning to get your sour blood off my weapon and the taste away from my tongue." Saix holds up his claymore. "Oh well, I have a little something I can use to get rid of the taste easily after this. You should have been happy with my gift of seeing him. Had I gone with my real plan, he would have been chained to my bed the rest of his life, dependent on me for every single thing. Such a pity," The claymore is over his head. "when love turns in to your greatest demise. Relax, I'll make the pain go away, forever." He brings down the claymore.
"Axel!"
Axel's P.O.V
I'm so stupid. I should have thought this through, like Demyx told me, not just run in blindly when I saw them. But he wasn't acting himself, I had to save him then and now. But everything hurts. I feel like my bones are made of cement and my body is sparking with anger from me letting it get abused this way. I hate tasting my own blood and feeling it run down my neck from the disgusting bite that blue animal gave me. I couldn't save Demyx, even when fighting for him.
"I'll make the pain go away, forever."
I close my eyes so I don't see the claymore slice through me. I only regret never being able to protect Demyx the way I should have.
"Axel!" I hear his voice. At least… his will be the last that I hear…
I wait for the slice, for my body to start to fade to hide my tears, but it doesn't happen. Is Saix toying with me? Does he want to see my expression as I die?
"Gh-hh-gt…"
That doesn't sound normal. I still think it's a trick, but I'm also curious. Slowly, I open one eye an than the other in shock. Saix's claymore is just over me, shaking like its wielder. Saix's head is down, odd noises seeping from him from the back of his throat. He suddenly stands straight, head pointed straight up, eyes dead wide and pupils small. He looks like he's the one being tortured. He drops his claymore next to him, almost like he was forced to.
"Gt-guh-ghuh…"
His jaw drops, foam starting to develop from his throat to dribble out his mouth as his body shakes worse. He tries to raise his arm, but it won't listen. It shakes violently and snaps back to his side. I sit up, transfixed in this frightening display. I've seen this before, only once.
I look back at Demyx. He has his arms raised towards Saix, eyes dark, glaring with hate. He clenches his hand and Saix snaps backwards in half like a snapped twig, his breath chocking with more of the foam coming up. I drag myself over to Demyx quickly before this could get worse.
"Demyx stop!" I shake him, trying to snap him out of his trance. "Demyx!"
Demyx turns one wrist and bends down the other arm, forcing Saix to his knees and arms behind his back, still bent in his painful pose. I can't let Demyx go any further with this. I mean, I hate Saix with a fiery passion but death by your own blood is not how anyone should die, especially at the hands of Demyx. Demyx bends his other arms so that they match; there's already blood starting to drip out of Saix's nose mixing with the foam. I really have no idea what to do other than to force my lips over Demyx's. I kiss him with all my love and passion for him, hoping to reach his subconscious before it's too late.
I watch him as I kiss. His hands start to unclench and lower, his eyelids lowering as well. I kiss deeper, licking his lips with a need for him to come back. I feel him start to kiss back as he finally goes limp against the wall. Saix falls over in a heap of unconscious wolf when his body returns to his control. I sigh. I might have saved the monster, but I saved Demyx from suffering the results of a power he wishes he never discovered he had. I pull back and look at my Nocturne.
"Demyx? Are you back?" I ask him.
He blinks slowly, his eyes back to the sea green they should be instead of the hollow black.
"Axel? Axel!" He hugs me, his body shaking as he cries in to my shoulder. "Axel I'm sorry! It's my fault you-you…"
"Demyx, it's more my fault." I hug him and rub his back to try and calm him. "I just ran in here without a plan."
"B-but I was… with Saix… I was begging him to… in front of you… Where's Saix?" He remembers that he might not be alone with me.
"Over there." I nod to the heap.
"Did you…?" He asks.
"No…" I didn't want to tell Demyx it was him and the power he hates that had done it, but if I keep it from him it wouldn't do any good either. "You used that power…"
His eyes widen in panic. "No… No! No! No! No! No!"
"Demyx relax!" I hug him tight. "I stopped you before you could do anything too bad to him. He's just out. Which I think is the least deadly thing you could have done."
"But… but why would I…?"
"You were trying to protect me, I'm assuming. Saix almost killed me but you stopped him. if I hadn't kissed you though you would have killed him, and maybe gone on some rampage." I say. He whimpers. "But you're fine now. And… you're free…" I reach for the black collar around his neck, pull it off and toss it across the room next to Saix. Demyx touches his neck. It's a lighter colour from the rest of his neck and it looks burned, probably from the electricity he was telling me about.
"I…it's gone…" He smiles and laughs with relief. "No more Master…" He looks up at me, than his smile drops. His hand touches my neck lightly. "I'm sorry."
"I told you, Dem. I'm the one that's sorry. Besides, I can heal. You…"
"I don't know if I can…" He curls up to hide his face in my chest.
"I'll help you, Demyx." I nuzzle him, ignoring the gnawing pain of my body. "I can't erase your memories or turn back time, but I can help you with new memories. I can help you by really protecting you this time." I kiss the top of his head. "I love you, my Nocturne. More than I can explain with words."
He looks up at me, fresh tears falling from those sweet caring eyes I can stare at all day. He kisses me, desperatly, like he was making sure everything was real and not some dream.
"Wh-what about Saix?" He asks, obviously worried something like this might happen again.
"Don't worry." I reassure my reunited lover. "I'm going to make sure he won't ever come near you again." I feel my head get lighter. "Ah.."
"Axel?" He holds my face.
"Sorry… Dem…could you… get Vexen for me…?" I pass out from both blood loss and the abuse my bod took. But I held out long enough so Demyx and I could finally reunite.
AN: And so the long awaited reuniting chapter has come. I hope it was to everyone's expectations, and maybe have even been a surprise. Only one more chapter to go in one of the fics I've had so much fun writing. I hope you've all had fun reading it as well. Much love to my readers!
