Four Months Later

"Please Master" Tony writhed helpless against his bonds as he lay strapped down to the large bed.

"Come on Tony…it's alright…you can tell me" Gibbs crooned sweetly into Tony's ear.

Tony's eyes swept everywhere in the room except Gibbs face as he sweated and moaned.

"You know you're going to tell me…eventually ….so you might as well tell me now. And then …maybe I'll let you come"

Tim groaned as he thrust into Tony again. "Oh please Tony …just tell him….I can't keep this up…"

Gibbs turned from where he was lying next to Tony and grinning wickedly looked up at the young man with his hard cock currently buried in Tony.

"Oh come on now Pet….don't tell me you're not enjoying this"

Tim just panted, flushed from head to foot with the restrained exertion, a bead of sweat trailing down his face "I know…I know control…..Toy….please"

Gibbs leaned in and kissed Tony, softly sweetly destroying and breaking down his barriers with gentle searing passion. Unrelenting, unending desire. His steely fist tightened around Tony's hard cock and Tony bucked into the sensation of his Masters touch.

"No..I can't….I don't know"

"Oh you know the answer alright Tony….that's why your fighting so hard against us"

Gibbs looked deep into Tony's eyes and then dragging his hot steely gaze down his captive's sweaty bare chest, suckled gently on the moist tip of Tony's sensitive cock. Tony cried out as his Master ruthlessly milked him.

"Just tell me Toy…..I won't be mad…I promise……I just need to know" Gibbs' blue eyes pierced Tony's pain and Tony knew his desperate pleading was useless against his Masters iron will.

Tony groaned and finally looked at Gibbs, tears slipping from his eyes.

"I…loved her…..I didn't mean to Master….I really didn't but….I…"

"Shush my beautiful Toy…… It's alright" Gibbs kissed Tony and held him in his arms as Tim sweated and groaned trembling above them both as he continued to thrust.

"I understand…it's alright……because you weren't expecting to fall in love you weren't prepared for it. And it hurt to let her go…… I understand…its ok"

Tony released himself and wept, tears streaming down his face as he was surrounded by his lovers.

Gibbs had learnt that Tony responded far better to gentle caresses when confronting something that really scared him than any other form of discipline he could offer.

Pain Tony could handle, it was love that broke him.

And so this was Tony's Interrogation….and absolution.

At work everything had settled down after the terror of thinking Tony lost. The paperwork had been filed, explanations made and wounds were healing.

But here in the bedroom, between the three of them there were still things that needed to be said. Tony needed to be forgiven as much as they both needed to forgive Tony for what he had done. The trust they once had in each other was absolute and Tony had shattered it with his betrayal.

"Pet?"

"What?" Tim panted knowing Gibbs and consequently he wasn't finished.

"Do you have anything you want to say to Tony?"

There was a brief trembling pause before Tim's voice small and vulnerable floated into Tony's emotional haze.

"I……I thought you were dead. Dead Tony……I told Ziva no I didn't believe it…but …." Tim's voice disappeared into a whisper.

"The…the body……your body….was burned….charred. It was black and I…could smell it. Smell the burned flesh. I can still smell it when I close my eyes, feel the heat and smell the smoke and the fuel and the flesh….. .

It felt like a part of me had died too……and then when you came back….you just laughed it off. You laughed at me Tony." Tim's wounded eyes looked down at the man beneath him showing the wealth of hurt that ran through his mighty heart like quicksilver.

Gibbs turned to look at his youngest boy and reached for him. He had known Tim had been hurt by being excluded, they all had but he hadn't realized how much Tony personally had injured Tim's delicate ego.

"Oh Timmy………" Gibbs rubbed Tim's back as he lay across Tony's chest and sobbed out his terror and fear. Tony looked up at Gibbs with devastated eyes and Gibbs realized that Tim's confession had done more to bring down the barriers between them than Tony's own had.

The three men held each other and Gibbs kissed away each of their tears. Tim with a look up at Gibbs for permission, kissed Tony softly, tasting him, reminding himself that he was alive, that he was ok.

Tim started up a slow deep thrust again and Tony kissed Gibbs before holding Tim's head between his hands.

"I'm sorry Tim. I'm so sorry…I didn't realize….there was so much going on and I…..if I didn't laugh I thought I might drown from it all. But I shouldn't have hurt you like that and for that I'm sorry." Tony looked up to Gibbs "I'm sorry to both of you. For the secrets. The lying. Everything."

Gibbs smiled sadly back "I know Tony…I know"

Gibbs leaned forward and whispered his permission into Tim's ear and he groaned and quickened his pace until both men were panting and arching, clutching each other. They came with Gibbs' name on their lips and tears on their cheeks and afterwards he held his boys until they fell asleep in his arms.

((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

Gibbs lay back in his large comfortable bed as the Boys slept and thought about Tim's own interrogation some weeks prior. The cases had been coming in thick and fast and they hadn't been able to see each other as lovers for some weeks.

Then Tim had been pushed into a freezing cold river and had to slog through mud for miles following the elusive trail. By the time the case had wrapped Tim was shivering through a growing fever and Gibbs sent him home for a few days rest.

By the time the next free weekend had come around Gibbs was more than anxious for a session with his pretty boys and eagerly waited for them to arrive on his doorstep Friday night after work.

Tony was first, bringing steaming pizza and cold beer along with a grin that nearly split his face. A few minutes later when Gibbs answered the door he couldn't help but notice that Tim seemed less excited about joining them.

Gibbs leaned in to kiss him and Tim almost turned his head away.

Gibbs looked at his youngest boy "What's wrong?"

Tim shrugged "Nothing"

Gibbs watched as Tim sat next to Tony and quietly started eating some pizza. Tony was all joyful grins and waving hands and seemed to be supplying enough energy for all three of them. Gibbs played along but kept on eye on Tim's downcast eyes.

Nothing wrong? Yeah right.

Soon Tony was pounding up the stairs shedding his clothes in his wake and littering the stairs with socks and a belt and flinging his shirt enthusiastically over the balustrade. Tim watched his enthusiasm with sad eyes and reluctantly followed behind him.

Gibbs slipped down to the basement and opened his chest gathering up several items along with his boys collars before returning to his bedroom.

"Pet?" Gibbs handed Tim his collar which he normally accepted with enthusiasm.

"Uh thanks……do you think …I might not wear it tonight?"

Right that's it. Gibbs glared at his Pet and Tony stopped his bouncing in surprise as he kneeled on the bed waiting for his own collar.

"What's wrong? Tell me what's wrong and I might not insist you wear it"

Tim's eyes slid back to the floor and he shifted awkwardly.

"I just don't feel like wearing it tonight…."

Tony stared fascinated as the battle of wills developing between Master and Pet.

"Since you haven't told me why, then you must wear it" Gibbs was firm

"No" Tim looked up at him from where he sat on the edge of the bed with steel in his expressive eyes. But underneath that Gibbs could see…hurt?

Who had hurt his little one?

"You have refused me…with no explanation. Stand against the wall to accept punishment" Gibbs' voice would take no disagreement and Tony watched, his eyes growing round and his cock hardening in excitement as Tim stood naked and leaned against the wall of the bedroom.

Gibbs stood for a minute and considered his Pet, anger and hurt written through every tense line of his increasingly toned body. He had never had to really punish Tim before, but something was up and he needed to find out what it was. He was too important a cog in their strange wheel to simply let him go. Gibbs needed to get this right.

Interrogation for Tony was allowing him to release his insecurities by showing him he was loved and that he was safe in telling them anything. Tim was different and tended to get lost in the sensation of pleasure. He would be fine up until a point but if Gibbs pushed him he simply wouldn't even hear Gibbs' questions, and Gibbs had a feeling that tonight he was going to have to really push him to get an answer.

But to push him with pain alone, knowing that Tim was already hurting from something wasn't right either. He might just walk out and refuse to submit to Gibbs' will and avoid answering that way. And that would be fatal.

Gibbs considered and then he reached for one of the items he had brought up from the basement and quickly lubed it up.

Gibbs leaned in and whispered in to his Pets ear "Last chance Tim, tell me what's wrong"

Tim simply shook his head and hung his head down onto his chest and Gibbs could feel the despair as Tim's face nearly crumpled.

"Alright then Pet…..but all you have to do to stop this is to tell me what's wrong"

Gibbs stood close and ran his hands over Tim's naked body, claiming his ownership of him and was pleased when Tim shivered but didn't move from his spot. Gibbs spread his buttocks and slowly pushed in the large butt plug deep inside Tim and smirked as he heard him moan and try to stifle it.

Gibbs turned and picked up the thin bamboo cane and suddenly without warning lashed it hard across Tim's bare buttocks.

Crack

Tim bucked at the pain and cried out sharply and then moaned as he instinctively clenched his muscles pleasurably around the plug deep inside of him.

Gibbs smirked. The pain would keep him focused on answering his questions and the pleasure would stop him resenting it too much. Gibbs softened his blow this time as he could already see the bright red stripe clearly across Tim's pale firm buttocks.

Crack

Tim yelped and moaned and tried to hold back the tears already threatening to spill down his cheeks. He could do this. He needed to do it. It was for the best. He shivered in pleasure around the object deep inside him as the initial pain washed away. Oh God. Master. Please…….

"Tell me what's wrong Tim"

Gibbs ran his hand gently down Tim's back trying to convince him through his touch to trust him as Tim shuddered beneath him. Tim bit back a sob and shook his head firmly before resolutely standing straighter to take his punishment. He almost wished for restraints to hold him in place, instead of choosing to stand and accept the pain and pleasure of his Master will.

Crack.

"Who hurt you Pet?" Gibbs voice was insistent and relentless. He would not go away.

Tony yelped instinctively at his lovers searing pain and then retreated across the bed at Gibbs' fierce glare. Tim wildly shook his head and clenched his hands against the wall as he struggled to take his punishment. He couldn't….he couldn't…..he was stronger than that. Gibbs had shown him how strong he could be and he owed it to him now to draw on that strength.

Crack

The slim cane bent as it flew through the air with a whoosh to make contact with bare flesh. Tim jumped and threw his head back in a deep moan as the pain and pleasure centered on his ass trembled through him. He panted as he tried to remain in position against the wall, while his cock strained hard and his flesh screamed its sensitivity. Tim could feel himself break out into a sweat as he trembled vulnerable against the wall. A surge of emotions washed over him, regret, desire, pain, sorrow and finally anger. Anger would help him survive and do what he must, even though he was loath to do it.

Tony watched in amazement as Gibbs tenderly whipped his young lover. Tony didn't know if he should be alarmed at himself as to how much it was turning him on to watch another receive punishment in this way. To see Tim fight against Masters will..…and be punished for it. Tony licked his lips and hoped Gibbs would allow him to touch himself as his cock strained hard, bobbing against his stomach as he knelt knees wide, naked in the centre of the bed, the gold chain on his collar glinting in the soft light of the bedroom.

"You just have to tell me and I will stop, Pet"

Gibbs paused hoping Tim would break, already secretly impressed that he had lasted this long. Tim's sensitive pale flesh would wear Gibbs' marks for some time as the thin stripes ran red and swollen across the curves of his muscular buttocks. Gibbs reached around and fondled Tim's aching cock, smearing the pre come from its tip over the sensitive flesh until it was wet and ready. Tim moaned as Gibbs leaned up and whispered.

"There are better things we could be doing with this right now….Just tell me Pet"

Tim screwed his eyes shut and grimaced as Gibbs stroked his hard cock with one hand and played the tip of the hated cane against his hot body with his other hand. Gibbs released him and moved away. Tim tensed as he knew what was coming and shuddered around the large plug deep inside him, his strong thighs quivering from the effort of staying in position.

Crack

Tears started to slip down Tim's cheeks as he clenched around the fire and desire racing through him. Oh God all he wanted was to whirl around and snap that cane across his knee…and then fuck someone stupid.

Crack

Use the anger, use it to give you the strength to do what you must. Tim thumped his fists against the wall as he fought himself. No, no, no. He couldn't do it. He was weak. He hated Gibbs. Hated what he was doing to him. Oh God Please more!

Crack

Tim wailed as he struggled through the pleasure as the pain was now almost constant as his flesh burned from the touch of his Masters will. Gibbs watched Tim's angry struggles as he writhed against the wall and knew he had reached some sort of breaking point with himself. He leaned over and whispered to Tim

"Remember Tim…. Nice people tell you what you want to hear. But I'm a Bastard. I give you what you need"

Tim hung his head at the truth in his words and wept and Gibbs stepped up and held him tenderly in his strong arms.

"Who hurt you Timmy?" Gibbs voice whispered into his ear

Tim's voice was quiet

"You did Master"

Gibbs stilled "What do you mean?"

Tim sighed and trembled in Gibbs arms "When I was sick…all I could see was you and Tony together at last….there was no me to get in the way….. I wanted to leave….so you could both just be together… but I can't do it. I just can't…….I wanted to end it between us so it could just be you and Tony. But I love you both too much. I am too weak… You have changed who I am and I don't think I can go back now….back to the way I was before."

"Oh Pet" Gibbs sighed out against Tim shoulder as he shook his head.

"There was no me and Tony while you were sick. Sure he came over…but it wasn't the same without you. We talked about work, Tony watched some crappy video and I worked on my boat. He didn't even stay the night. This….." Gibbs indicated the three of them by including Tony still kneeling aroused on the bed "this only works when there is the three of us. It may not always have been like that. But it is now. "

Tim finally turned from the wall his long eyelashes spiked with tears "Really?"

Gibbs smiled sorrowfully at him and kissed him "You were trying to leave us? Silly Pet…you know I would never allow that"

Tim laughed and hiccupped through his tears.

Gibbs sighed again "What am I going to do with you?"

"Fuck me" Tim's eyes were wild and his emotions were stripped to breaking point as he fluctuated between rage and despair, love and desire.

Gibbs slammed Tim into the wall back first and kissed him hard. Tim moaned in pain and pleasure as his bare ass hit the wall and then returned the kiss desperate and hungry, grinding into Gibbs and clawing at his back, raking his flesh with his trim nails. Gibbs pulled back panting and realized that Tim had already been pushed to far to be satisfied with being a passive partner.

He turned to see Tony panting and literally twitching with the need to relieve himself of his own rampant desire. He asked Tony a silent question with tilt of his head and was answered with a Tony grin. Gibbs stepped back but held Tim to the wall with his hand on his bare chest. He reached for his Pets collar and slowly agonizingly re claimed Tim as his own by buckling up the leather collar studded with silver around his neck while staring deep into his eyes.

Gibbs leaned in and whispered rough into Tim's ear "Never forget your mine. No one can give you what you need like I can"

Gibbs kissed Tim hard, rough, dragging the beginning of his whiskers over his jaw and down his neck before suddenly releasing him and whirling him to face Tony on the bed. Gibbs leaned in and whispered his permission before slapping Tim hard on the ass with his bare hand.

Tim pounced on Tony like he was starving and Tony was made of sweet rich Italian chocolate. Tony found himself pinned and bitten and squeezed and scratched….and loved every second of Tim's desperation to be nearer to him. To be inside him. Quickly.

Tim roughly tossed Tony over onto his front and he scrambled trying to comply. The next second he could feel Tim's hands, fingers on him, in him and then…….

Tony moaned as Tim with little preparation and the only lubricant being his own slickness drove deep into Tony. Tim grabbed Tony's slim hips and kneeling pulled him onto himself at a depth and speed which had Tony gasping in delight.

There was no other way to put it. Tim fucked Tony, hard and desperate. Every time he drove deep into Tony, Tim would feel the large object deep inside of him and it drove him almost insane with pleasure. He fucked with a panic and a terror of loss and wild desire.

Gibbs's watched, his own fierce hunger rampant with desire as he saw polite society and years of careful moral training ripped away from Tim leaving only the savage desire and primal urges of a strong young man driven to his limits.

Within minutes Tim could stand the pleasure no longer as his body already at the limit of his physical and emotional endurance shattered into hot molten glass.

Tim literally screamed his anguished release, throwing his head back, clawing at Tony's hips and Gibbs was suddenly very glad that his house was large and some distance away from his neighbors.

Shuddering overcome with a tremendous exhaustion Tim collapsed across Tony's back, gasping for breath as Tony shuddered through his own wild orgasm.

I'm sorry Tony…I'm so sorry I didn't mean to hurt you…" Tim mumbled through his exhaustion, horror struck that he had hurt his lover. Tony just smiled and kissed him hard and deep and wild.

"Any time Timmy….you can do that anytime…"

Tim sagged onto the bed, trembling and the last thing he saw before he collapsed was Gibbs as he smiled and helped lay his tangled limbs out on the bed.

Tim slept, his face looking so young as he submitted to the physical and emotional exhaustion of the evening. Gibbs gently ran his hand down Tim's back, and then slipped his fingers between the cheeks of his ass. Tim moaned as it was released but did not wake. Tony gasped as Gibbs pulled free the large butt plug he had placed there earlier.

"You mean he was wearing that the whole time? Jesus"

Gibbs looked at Tony with hungry eyes and walked around to the other side of the bed, leaving Tim to sleep. Tony smiled "Please Master..may I suck your magnificent cock?"

Gibbs pulled Tony's head closer to his own now aching erection "You may"

Gibbs bit back a groan as Tony expertly sucked and deep throated his sensitive flesh. It wouldn't be enough after watching the two of them, he would have to fuck Tony himself but it would take the edge off.

Gibbs lay back in his bed and considered his two boys. Gentle sweet Timothy and that fire he had in his soul.

Would he one day have replaced the collar at his throat with leather cuffs at his wrists and have his own boys kneeling at his feet?

Gibbs remembered the desire in Tony's eyes as he lashed Tim for his disobedience. Watched as Tony hungered for the cane on another's flesh. Perhaps Tony might just develop a taste for command in the bedroom on occasion?

Oh so many things he still had to learn about his Boys.

(Please let me know what you think about this. Phew the wildest chapter I think I have done. I think this might be the end? Angst AND slash. Precious)
