Prompt: Lindsey/Spike, Spike drinking some of Lindsey's blood (established relationship).


Spike doesn't ever really ask permission anymore. He'll just throw himself next to or on Lindsey and nuzzle his neck, letting his teeth slip in for a moment, and then he'll lick up the trickle of blood. It's like a kiss.

And sometimes, he'll latch on whenever they fuck, and it's an explosion of pleasure, with just a hint of pain—the best thing Lindsey's ever felt.

The greatest thing of all, though, is when Lindsey whispers a spell into Spike's skin, when he draws a certain pattern of runes onto Spike's back, and then he pulls Spike into the sunlight and Spike drinks him in the heat.
