Part 1<\/b><\/p>\n

Cordelia sat on the beach under a sunshade watching the Groosalug frolicking in the surf with a group of teenagers. S<\/p>\n

he sighed, sometimes she felt like his mother not his supposed lover she felt so old. Still it had done her good this holiday paid for by Angel, it gave her a chance to recap and rethink her life. This year had been a hectic one so far what with Connor being born then her having such an almighty vision that she thought she had died, only to find that to live she had to become part demon.<\/p>\n

She still kept checking for horns or a tail! But so far the only manifestation had been the floating episode, which she hadn\u2019t been able to duplicate yet.<\/p>\n

She laid back and rested her eyes from the glare of the ocean, it was nice to have nothing to think about for a change, she wondered how the others were getting on without her. She had decided that when she returned she would make a real effort to tell Angel how she felt about him so that perhaps they could stop tiptoeing around each other as though they were walking on eggs. She had realised soon after she and Groo had arrived at the holiday resort that there was no way she was going to sleep with him, even though when she left she\u2019d had every intention of doing so, so much so that she\u2019d got a potion to take so that he didn\u2019t take her visions from her.<\/p>\n

When she had thought about it on the flight over, she realised that while she had fancied him it was only because she had unwittingly tried to turn him into Angel, cutting his hair the same style and giving him some of Angels clothes to wear. They were quite similar in build, but that\u2019s as far as it went, Groo had no conversation skills and was really just a big kid who could fight well. Angel was a no bone as far as she was concerned, so Groo had been convenient, as he seemed so devoted to her.<\/p>\n

She had been relieved when the room they occupied had twin beds and after a struggle the first night she had persuaded Groo to sleep on his own and apart from a few comments about \u2018Comshuk\u2019 he hadn\u2019t objected too much. She thought he got so much exercise during the day, as he was never still for more than about 5 minutes, that he was worn out at night and so didn\u2019t pester her at all.<\/p>\n

She was quite surprised that she hadn\u2019t had a vision about LA. She had one after the first week, about a demon from the sea coming on the beach to devour the swimmers, but Groo had been able to despatch it demon swiftly without involving any one else.<\/p>\n

Her thoughts kept returning to LA the more she thought about it the more worried she became. She had rung Fred when they arrived and given her the hotels telephone number just in case they needed to get in touch, she had been surprised that they hadn\u2019t rung at all in the last 10 days. She suddenly decided that she would give them a ring just to check on Connor if nothing else. She got up and went to there room and put a call through to the Hyperion.<\/p>\n

She was surprised that the answer phone picked up, she looked at her watch it was 4pm someone should have been there at this time of the day. She left a message saying she would call later and wandered back down to the beach. Groo was now involved in a game of volleyball, he was very competitive and had to be told the rules very clearly otherwise he tended to run off with whatever was being thrown and as he could run very fast the others had no chance of catching him. On more than one occasion she had had to intervene to stop an argument breaking out between them.<\/p>\n

She ordered a long cool drink from the waiter who\u2019d been trying to chat her up all week much to Groos disgust. He had said the waiter was unworthy to talk to her she had laughed at that thinking the waiter was actually very \u2018worthy\u2019, he was taking a year off after Yale to travel round the resorts before joining his Fathers stock broking firm later this year.<\/p>\n

They had chatted quite a bit about the merits of various Universities. She had been accepted at all the best ones but when her father had lost all his money she had to turn them down. Which is partly how she ended up with the job she did now.<\/p>\n

She sat back and tried to get back to the relaxed felling she\u2019d had earlier, but something wasn\u2019t right she felt a tingling in her head as though an alarm clock was ringing a long way away. It didn\u2019t feel like a vision but there was defiantly something odd going on. She waited another hour then went back to the room to call LA again. Someone should be there now it was Connor\u2019s teatime.<\/p>\n

The phone rang and rang until finally Fred, who sounded awful, picked it up. \u2018Angel Investigations\u2019 Fred mumbled.<\/p>\n

\u2018Hi Fred, it\u2019s Cordy you sound awful have you got a cold?\u2019 said Cordy.<\/p>\n

\u2018Oh Cordy am I glad to hear from you, he wouldn\u2019t let me ring you and then he hid the paper with the number on it and we couldn\u2019t remember which hotel you were in, it\u2019s so awful I \u2026..\u2019 she stopped.<\/p>\n

Cordy thought she was crying, but that was nothing new for Fred although she\u2019d been better lately.<\/p>\n

\u2018What\u2019s up?\u2019 asked Cordy \u2018is everything all right?\u2019 she was beginning to get a bit worried the pricking in her brain was getting worse.<\/p>\n

Fred took a deep breath and tried to talk \u2018it\u2019s Connor, he\u2019s been kidnapped, and Wesley nearly died and is in hospital and Angel has gone over the edge we don\u2019t know what to do with him\u2019 she gasped before breaking down in tears again.<\/p>\n

\u2018Right\u2019 said Cordy \u2018I\u2019ll get the next flight back\u2019 she had hardly absorbed what Fred has said except the bit about Connor. She knew if anything had happened to him, even though he wasn\u2019t her son he felt like it, she wouldn\u2019t forgive herself. She hung up and rang the tour reps pager then went down to the lobby to wait for her.<\/p>\n

Samantha, the tour rep. hurried towards Cordy \u2018what\u2019s up\u2019 she asked.<\/p>\n

\u2018I need to get home urgently\u2019 said Cordy \u2018can you arrange a flight today?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019ll see what I can do\u2019 Sam replied and went over to the main office. She poked her head out a while later and said \u2018there\u2019s a flight leaving in 2 hours but they only have one place will that be OK?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Yes anything\u2019 said Cordy pacing in the lobby. Sam came out of the office and said she had booked Cordy on it but what about Groo. Cordy realised she had forgotten all about him in her haste.<\/p>\n

\u2018Could you look after him, please?\u2019 Cordy asked Sam, she knew Sam had a soft spot for him.<\/p>\n

\u2018You know make sure he gets the flight home ok. I think he knows enough to manage for 10days on his own.\u2019 She had told them that Groo had had a very sheltered upbringing as a reason for his odd behaviour at times.<\/p>\n

\u2018Yes I\u2019d love to, your not romantically attached to him are you?\u2019 Sam asked.<\/p>\n

\u2018No I thought I was but being here has made me realise I can\u2019t love him\u2019 replied Cordy.<\/p>\n

\u2018Good, that means I\u2019m in with a chance\u2019 said Sam. Cordy laughed thinking if Sam knew where Groo came from she would run a mile.<\/p>\n

Cordy went back up to the room and quickly packed her few belongings, then she went to find Groo who was now running about helping to set up the barbeque that had been scheduled for that night. He understood this, roasting parts of beasts over an open fire to eat them. Cordy went over to him and told him she had to leave, as there was a problem at the hotel in LA.<\/p>\n

He immediately wanted to come with her but she gentle explained that the was only one seat on the plane, but that Sam would look after him until it was time to catch the correct flight back. Sam came over just then and said to Groo \u2018Come on Groo you can carry some of the food out\u2019 he went with her after a few backward glances at Cordy. \u2018Are you sure my princess?\u2019 he said. \u2018Yes, see you in 10 days\u2019 Cordy called.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

She managed to catch the flight with only a few minutes to spare. She thanked God that they hadn\u2019t gone to Jamaica where she had first thought of going; at least the Mexican resort wasn\u2019t too long a flight from LA. She landed at 11.30pm and got a cab to the Hyperion.<\/p>\n

When she got there the place looked trashed and deserted. She went into the foyer and looked around.<\/p>\n

\u2018Hello\u2019 she said \u2018anyone around?\u2019 Fred and Gunn came out of the kitchen. They looked wrecked.<\/p>\n

\u2018Come in here and we\u2019ll fill you in\u2019 said Gunn.<\/p>\n

She went in to the kitchen and they told he what had happened. Apparently Wesley had translated a prophecy to mean that after the fire and storm the father will kill the son and had got worried when Angel had said that Connor smelt like food. Then there had been the earthquake and the fire; it all seemed to add up to the wording.<\/p>\n

So he had taken Connor to try to get him to the watchers council for safety, but on the way he had been attacked and Connor kidnapped, what was worse Angel had had to watch as Holtz, the man who took Connor, disappeared with him through a portal into another dimension. When Angel tried to follow he couldn\u2019t get through and the portal closed.<\/p>\n

Cordy was crying by the time they\u2019d finished. \u2018How\u2019s Angel, he must be devastated?\u2019 she cried.<\/p>\n

\u2018Yes he is, his gone over the edge, he tried to kill Wes in hospital and when he came back he was smashing everything to pieces so we had to dart him\u2019 said Gunn \u2018he\u2019s in the basement chained up, but now he wont feed or speak to us at all, I\u2019m so glad your back perhaps he\u2019ll talk to you.\u2019<\/p>\n

Cordy stood up and wiped the tears from her face.<\/p>\n

\u2018Give me the keys I\u2019ll see if he\u2019ll talk to me\u2019 she said \u2018and you 2 go and get some rest you look shattered.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Are you sure?\u2019 said Fred \u2018he\u2019s awful wild at times I tried to get him to take some blood but he just knocked it out of my hand.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Yes, I\u2019ll be Ok, he usually listens to me if I go on long enough\u2019 replied Cordy as they quickly left eager to get away from it all for a while. Cordy felt sorry for them, they had only just started dating.<\/p>\n

She pocketed the keys Gunn had left and made her way cautiously down to the basement. When she got to the bottom of the steps she was shocked by what she saw Angel was manacled to the wall his left hand close but the right with a bit more freedom, his head hung down and he seemed to have lost a lot of weight since she\u2019d seen him last.<\/p>\n

He looked a mess his hair was sticking out even more than usual he had blood all over him and his clothes and running sores where he\u2019d tried to break the manacles off his wrists. He was barefoot and barely conscious. The floor around him was dark red with spilt blood, or Cordy hoped it was spilt and not his anyway.<\/p>\n

She approached him with caution knowing how fast he could move if he wanted.<\/p>\n

\u2018Angel\u2019 she said, \u2018I came as soon as I heard, why didn\u2019t you let them phone me?\u2019<\/p>\n

He straightened up at the sound of her voice. \u2018Cordy\u2026\u2019 he gasped \u2018you came back, I didn\u2019t think you would.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Of course I would you should know that I love you both, how could you not tell me\u2019 she cried tears falling down her face. \u2018I\u2019m so sorry I wasn\u2019t here \u2026.\u2019 she stopped unable to go on. He looked at her so sorrowfully that she was sure she felt her heart break.<\/p>\n

\u2018Cor, they took our baby\u2019 he whispered.<\/p>\n

She went over to him and kissed him gently, when he didn\u2019t pull away she put her arms round him and hugged him tightly. He shifted around as she felt his ribs sticking out it obviously hurt him.<\/p>\n

\u2018You must have some blood you’re just skin and bone\u2019 she said \u2018if I get you some will you drink it\u2019<\/p>\n

He looked at her \u2018Wolfram & Hart put Connor\u2019s blood in my supply did you know? I cant face it any more\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

She looked at him with sorrow. Then she had an idea \u2018come on lets get you cleaned up\u2019 she said undoing the manacles and chains.<\/p>\n

\u2018How do you know I wont hurt you?\u2019 he asked.<\/p>\n

\u2018The way I feel now you couldn\u2019t make me feel worse whatever you do\u2019 she replied.<\/p>\n

She helped him away from the wall and up the stairs to the suite she had used when she had spent the night, she didn\u2019t think it would be a good idea to be in his suite. When she shut the door she pushed him towards the bathroom.<\/p>\n

\u2018Go on have a shower then we\u2019ll talk\u2019 she said as she left him to go and get him some clean clothes.<\/p>\n

She was shocked when she saw the state of his suite what with the earthquake and the fire there wasn\u2019t much left. She gulped when she saw Connor\u2019s cot in the corner with a few forlorn toys in it. She shook herself Angel needed her to be strong; there would be time for grieving later.<\/p>\n

She went to his closet luckily the fire hadn\u2019t got that far. She got him a set of clean clothes and returned to her suite with them. She was surprised he hadn\u2019t moved from where she\u2019d left him near the bathroom door.<\/p>\n

\u2018I can\u2019t be bothered\u2019 he said, \u2018I just want it to end.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Come on stop thinking like that\u2019 she said \u2018that\u2019s not the way to get him back is it?\u2019<\/p>\n

She pushed him into the bathroom but he still didn\u2019t want to do anything so taking a deep breath she started to undress him. She took his shirt off then undid his pants relieved that he had boxers on underneath; she\u2019d never been quite sure. She made him step out of his pants then pushed him over to the shower and in it. She turned the water on and waited for him to do something, he just stood under the spray as if he didn\u2019t know what to do.<\/p>\n

\u2018Oh well\u2019 she thought to herself \u2018here goes\u2019 as she quickly stripped off her dress and jewellery.<\/p>\n

She had a respectable black bra and briefs set on underneath and after all he\u2019d seen her in that brief bikini at her last audition. She kicked off her high-healed sandals and stepped into the shower with him, got a sponge and some shower gel and started washing him.<\/p>\n

At first he just stood then slowly as though he was coming round from a deep sleep he turned to look at her. He put his arms round her as she reached up to lather his hair.<\/p>\n

\u2018Are you going to leave me as well\u2019 he asked.<\/p>\n

\u2018No why should I?\u2019 she replied.<\/p>\n

\u2018Groo?\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019ve left him having fun in the sun\u2019 she said smiling \u2018that was just not going to be, I realised it\u2019s you I want\u2019 she stopped, \u201cnow I\u2019ve said it\u201d she thought \u201cI wonder what he\u2019ll do\u201d<\/p>\n

He looked at her and then pulled her close to him and kissed her, gently at first then when he felt her mouth opening he deepened it hugging her with a quiet desperation. She felt her head swimming she\u2019d never been kissed like this before. It evoked all the dreams she\u2019d had of him in the past.<\/p>\n

When they finally pulled apart he said \u2018are you going to finish the job then?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018What job\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n

\u2018Washing me\u2019 he almost grinned at her embarrassment as she noticed his obvious arousal.<\/p>\n

\u2018I think you can manage the rest yourself\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n

\u2018Chicken\u2019 he whispered huskily.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m not\u2019 she said and before she could change her mind she ripped his boxers down and started to sponge him down. She\u2019d got used to Groo running around the room in the resort naked when he came out of the shower, but she had to stifle a gasp when she looked at Angel, he seemed rather well endowed to her. She felt herself becoming aroused at her thoughts.<\/p>\n

He pulled her to him again and began to kiss her thrusting his tongue deep into her mouth. The next thing she realised was he\u2019d undone her bra and was removing it then he pushed her briefs down her legs and then held her close, naked flesh touching the whole length of her body. She gasped as she felt his erection against her and then again as his hand parted her legs and his fingers slipped into her. She knew she wouldn\u2019t last long she\u2019d thought about this moment for too long. He sensed she was about to come so he stopped what he was doing and lifted her up to sink into her warmth as she wrapped her legs round his body. She gasped as she got used to him inside her and he groaned knowing he couldn\u2019t last long as he felt her muscles contracting round him. He pushed a few times and that was all it took for him to climax with such a force he nearly collapsed on the floor.<\/p>\n

They pulled apart and kissed under the spray then Cordy turned off the shower and reached for some towels to dry them with. She led him out of the shower and was amazed how thin he was.<\/p>\n

\u2018When did you last eat?\u2019 she asked as she dried them both.<\/p>\n

\u2018Can\u2019t remember\u2019 he mumbled.<\/p>\n

She pushed him on to the bed and lay down beside him. She put her arms round him and kissed him tenderly, she felt him begin to respond to her as he gathered her into his arms. She felt his erection on her hip and moved over to take him in her mouth. He hissed when he felt her mouth on him and shuddered as she licked and sucked him cupping his balls with her hand. He dragged her away from his cock, as he knew it would finish him if she carried on. He turned her onto her back and parted her legs and moved to lick and nibble at her as his fingers pushed into her. She was soon writhing under him as he did exquisite things to her.<\/p>\n

\u2018Angel\u2019 she moaned \u2018I need you now.\u2019<\/p>\n

He moved over her body and positioned himself at her entrance, then impaled her with one thrust. She gasped as she tried to accommodate him in one go. He stayed still to let her get accustomed to his size, then she was urging him on wrapping her legs round his hips, stroking his back and nipping at his neck as he thrust into her with long slow strokes nearly pulling out before sinking in again. She wanted to rake his back with her nails but figured he\u2019d lost enough blood already.<\/p>\n

\u2018Mmmm Angel\u2019 she sighed as she shuddered beneath him feeling her orgasm starting.<\/p>\n

She now knew what the transending furies had been on about. He could feel her muscles tightening round his cock and knew he would soon follow her. Then she nipped his neck; it was all he needed to plunge his fangs into her neck and suck her blood, as the first taste flooded into his mouth he sucked harder as he climaxed into her, his warm semen filling her. He took more of her blood than he meant to, but it was intoxicating for him. He was so hungry and she tasted so good. She sighed against him as she came down to earth. She felt light headed she didn\u2019t know whether from the wonderful sex or the blood loss. She was surprised that he felt warm inside her she was sure he hadn\u2019t the first time.<\/p>\n

\u2018Enough\u2019 she whispered in his ear and felt his fangs retract as he gently licked the wounds to stop the bleeding. \u2018Now sleep\u2019 she added \u2018we\u2019ll talk in the morning\u2019, as he rolled off her but still kept her in his arms.<\/p>\n

To his surprise he fell asleep immediately, she lay awake for a while thinking about what had happened \u2018did he love her or was it just a release for him?\u2019 she wondered. She\u2019d try and find out in the morning.<\/p>\n

When Angel woke up he felt much better. She rolled over as she felt his hands on her and his mouth on her neck.<\/p>\n

\u2018Morning\u2019 she said \u2018you look a lot better than yesterday.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m good\u2019 he said. They talked about what had happened since she went away and Connor\u2019s disappearance. Angel had gone to the Oracles but as usual they had been no help. He had decided he was going to Wolfram & Hart when Gunn & Fred had tackled him and chained him up.<\/p>\n

\u2018Now you\u2019re back I feel able to go on\u2019 he said. She looked at him with love in her eyes as she kissed him. He made love to her again and when they both got the release they needed they fell asleep in each other\u2019s arms.<\/p>\n

Later that morning Angel woke up he felt odd all of a sudden he had an awful pain in his chest.<\/p>\n

\u2018Oh No, Cordy get out now!!\u2019 he gasped as he recognised the feeling as he felt his soul leaving him.<\/p>\n
