    Summary

    Does it make him lesser, that these advances don’t ignite hunger and flattery but revulsion? That the heat curling in his belly isn’t desire but disgust? Or does it make him greater, that he does not stoop, does not prowl, does not take, like a less scrupulous man might?

    But what does it matter—lesser, greater—when the result is the same? When he is still here, nursing a drink in the dim fugue of a bar too loud, too young, too dizzying with its perfume of cheap liquor and cheaper thrills. When he is still a man past his prime, not the wolf but in fact seated among them, and though he does not salivate, does not sink his teeth into the softness offered up to him, the very fact of his presence damns him all the same.

    Because what else could a man like him be doing here, if not waiting to be fed?

    And then there's you.

    OR

    Desire, when denied, does not disappear. A chance meeting with a stranger becomes an unscratched itch, and Higuruma is nothing if not a man who will torture himself about it.

    Summary

    “You really love me,” you whisper when you pull back, eyes wide as if it still surprises you.

    There’s a beat where everything holds, and there’s no laughter, no flinch. It’s only you, looking at him like he’s something you chose, like you’d do it again.

    “More than anything,” he says simply, truth so heavy it sinks straight to the bottom of the tub. “More than I’ve ever loved anything. Ever.”

    He means that. Means it in the kind of way that terrifies him, quiet and vast and swallowing. And that’s because he’s had obsessions, addictions. Sure, there've been people he’d burn the world for, starve for, kill for without hesitation just to hear their praise. But this isn’t the same. You don’t demand things. You look at him, with those soft eyes and that stupid little smile, and he wants to be good. It isn’t even about redemption. It’s the fact that, for the first time in ages—maybe ever—he matters.

    * * * * * * * *

    Spike thought love was supposed to hurt. Then he fell for you, bubbles, blood and all. Now he’s a kept man with a shopping list and a soft spot a mile wide, and honestly? He likes it that way.
    (Set during a canon-divergent Season 6.)

    Summary

    Spike risks a glance at you, eyes flicking away when they meet yours.

    “Not much of a man now, am I? But the way you look at me... bugger me if it doesn’t make me feel like I could be.” He forces a chuckle, brittle around the edges. “Maybe it’s just my own foolishness talking. Wouldn’t be the first time.” He stops, swallowing hard. “But if this is the end, I need you to know that… that every stupid poem I scratched out, back when my heart was still beatin’—they were shadows of what I feel now. For you.”

    Spike's fingers reach out and touch, delicate across your cheekbone, down to cup your jaw. “You’ve gone and wrapped yourself ‘round me. Tighter than a noose, sweeter than blood, even. I can’t stop wantin’ more. Reckon I never will.”

    * * * * * * * *

    Returning to Sunnydale for the first time since Angel lost his soul, you're older, bitter and unprepared for the grief that awaits. You never expected to fall for Spike. Through the eyes of the Scoobies, it's obsession, danger, betrayal—but to you, it's the only thing left that still feels real.
    (Set post-ep S5E14.)

    Summary

    The scarlet serpent constricts around your arm, and Messmer’s hand squeezes your breast with no subtlety, your flesh bulging between his slender fingers.

    “Declare unto me thy love,” he exhales, his breath like hot flames against your skin.

    “I love thee, Messmer,” you say.

    “Once more.”

    “I love thee, my heart,” you say again.
