Chapter 11<\/b><\/p>\n
They were back down in the main room. Cordelia was leaned up against the wall. God, she wanted to scream. Scream in fear, anger and frustrations.<\/p>\n
She wanted Angel. Cordelia looked up at the mocking smiling face of Angelus, she closed her eyes and her urge to scream became even more pronounced.<\/p>\n
The urge became a reality when the pain suddenly over took her, her brain erupting in fire, and the flashes of a vision parading through her mind. She fell to the floor screaming.<\/p>\n
Angelus moved, kneeling down and waited. Finally, Cordelia\u2019s yells decreased in volume, becoming small whimpers. \u201cI guess, the Powers hadn\u2019t heard the news, uh.\u201d He leaned towards her. She winced, moving away, her hands going to her head, pressing at her eyes, low moans continuing.<\/p>\n
\u201cUm, Cordy, this is where you are supposed to say you\u2019re fine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia shook her head; tears falling rapidly down her face. \u201cIt was never fine you bastard, it doesn\u2019t go away.\u201d She curled into a ball, holding her body close. Cordelia didn\u2019t care if Angelus saw her hurting, he wasn\u2019t Angel that would feel guilty, and he wasn\u2019t Angel that would care and brood about it. He couldn\u2019t make the pain lessen.<\/p>\n
Angelus knelt on his heels. \u201cWhat do you mean? You always told the wimp that you were fine.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, get this you idiot, I lied.\u201d She yelled, wincing at the sound of her own voice.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you keep moaning like that, I\u2019m going to have to knock you out, it\u2019s annoying. Well, it is when I\u2019m not causing it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019d be grateful,\u201d she gasped, rocking her body.<\/p>\n
Angelus leaned further back. He didn\u2019t like this. \u201cWhere are your pills?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia looked at him, her eyes red and filled with tears. \u201cYou\u2019re kidding, right?\u201d<\/p>\n
Angelus growled. Who would have thought to grab painkillers? It\u2019s not like he was planning to stop her pain, well at least the pain he caused, but this was just not fun to watch.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, you would have these little fits, Angel would hug and do oh are you okay bit, go fight the bad guys and come back and you would be fine. So, why aren\u2019t you fine?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd you call me and Angel stupid. How about, no hugging from Angel, no going to fight the evil in my vision, how about no relief from the pain, because the evil is still out there.\u201d She rubbed harshly at her temples. \u201cWeren\u2019t you going to knock me out?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, if I go kill the whatever in your vision, you\u2019ll stop wriggling around moaning like a dying fish.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI hate you.\u201d She gasped.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know, but answer the question.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFine, where and what.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re going to go?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not going to let the powers ruin my fun. You\u2019re useless like this. Tell me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia bit down her retort. All that mattered was that Angelus was going to go. He was going to save the helpless, it didn\u2019t matter what the reason. So she told.<\/p>\n
Angelus shook his head and yelled for Clyde.<\/p>\n
Clyde came running.<\/p>\n
\u201cWatch her, no one touch her, get her water or something.\u201d Angelus stormed out.<\/p>\n
Clyde looked at the frail human, moaning on the floor. He shrugged and went to get some water.<\/p>\n
Chapter 12<\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cLorne, are you sure it\u2019s safe here?\u201d Wesley asked again.<\/p>\n
Lorne came over from the bar and bottle of Scotch in his hand, placing it on the table before he sat. \u201cThis is just great, the big lug is the big evil lug and he has the princess, this is just great.\u201d He poured a drink.<\/p>\n
\u201cLorne?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes. The club is still closed to the public; the three flighty delights have fixed the spell. I also gave them the heads up in the Angelus direction, so they\u2019re taking a mini vacation, so he can\u2019t find them, if he wanted to. And they also rescinded the human ban on violence, temporarily,\u201d he added for Gunn\u2019s benefit.<\/p>\n
\u201cI apologized.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, you did.\u201d Lorne took another swallow. \u201cSo, leader what\u2019s the plan?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe go after Angelus, we dust him, and save Cordy, what else.\u201d Gunn said.<\/p>\n
\u201cGunn, no. The research I\u2019ve done indicates that if find the Auferote within the next 72 hours and kill it, and then the effects of the black ooze will be negated. And Angel\u2019s soul will return.\u201d Wesley shook his head in self-incrimination.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe should have killed it then, the black ooze was only able to take hold because we left the demon alive. I should have listened to Cordelia\u2019s unease about not knowing the identification of the demon before we left. If we had only known then.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWesley, everyone agreed that getting to that couple was more important, even Cordy. You couldn\u2019t known.\u201d Fred said.<\/p>\n
\u201c72 hours? In 72 hours, the evil vamp could kill Cordy. She could already be dead. We have to kill Angelus.\u201d Gunn interrupted harshly.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo. Gunn. The Auferote was wounded fairly badly. It likes dark damp places and avoids the sunlight. It couldn\u2019t have gotten that far from where we fought it. It will be easier to find than to find Angelus in 72 hours. If we find it, kill it, we will be doing more for Cordelia and Angel than if we waste time looking for Angelus, 72 hours may pass and then the black ooze\u2019s effect will be permanent and Cordelia will definitely be dead. This way they both have a chance.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have to kill him now. Cordy is who needs to be saved not the vampire.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGunn, we have no idea where Angelus took her. He knows the sewers and the city better than we do. Angelus could be anywhere. We have an idea where the demon is, though- and the quicker we go find it, the better everyone will be. Once, the demon is dead, Angel will return and he will make sure that Cordelia is safe.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFine? Damn you\u2019re na\u00efve.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, I\u2019m not. I\u2019ve met Angelus, you haven\u2019t. Cordelia has experienced him before. I know what I\u2019m suggesting could do to her. But, I also know this is what she would want us to do. Angel, though, I\u2019m sure would agree with you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe will kill her.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wesley took off his glasses and rubbed his forehead. \u201cNot yet. Angelus likes to terrorize and torture. He\u2019ll keep her alive for a while. That\u2019s why we need to hurry and find the demon.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTorture?\u201d Fred squeaked. \u201cAngel wouldn\u2019t\u2026It\u2019s not Angel, right.\u201d Fred hid her head in her hands. \u201cI just left her with him.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFred, you couldn\u2019t know. If Cordy didn\u2019t then there was no way you could\u2019ve.\u201d Wesley patted the young girl on the shoulder, trying to reassure her as she had done for him.<\/p>\n
He got up. \u201cGunn, are you coming?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf he kills her, cured or not, he\u2019s dust.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wesley shook his head. \u201cIf Angelus kills her and Angel is cured, I don\u2019t think you will have to worry about that.\u201d Wesley turned to Fred. \u201cDo not leave here under any circumstances. If Angel calls you, do no believe that it is him, not until we have confirmed it, understood?\u201d<\/p>\n
Fred nodded.<\/p>\n
\u201cLorne?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll make sure the kitten is safe, now go. Save the Princess and the dark knight. The alternative is unpalatable.\u201d<\/p>\n
Chapter 13<\/b><\/p>\n
The pain began to lessen in Cordelia\u2019s head. Which could only mean that the danger in her vision had been stopped. She took a deep breath of relief.<\/p>\n
\u201cHey, here.\u201d Clyde shoved some water at her.<\/p>\n
\u201cGo away.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe master said to give you some water. So take it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI said go away, you vamp toady.\u201d She knocked the water out of his hand.<\/p>\n
\u201cListen bitch,\u201d Clyde stopped Cassandra from hitting Cordelia.<\/p>\n
\u201cCass, remember.\u201d He pointed to the various piles of dust still scattered on the floor. \u201cDon\u2019t. Just leave her alone, maybe she\u2019ll shut up then.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cassandra grumbled and flashed Cordelia her game face. \u201cWhen the master\u2019s tired of you, I will so kill you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen Angelus is tired of me, I\u2019m sure all already be dead, you stupid bitch.\u201d Cordelia rolled her eyes. She looked to the door as Angelus strode in. She got up and then slumped back down as she saw what he was carrying.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat have you done?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d Angelus said to Cordelia as he threw the victim of her vision to the other vampires. \u201cI killed the demon, saved Joe Blow, here. What? Did you think I would just let him go? Hell, this is food. Those visions of yours could come in handy.\u201d He smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m going to be sick.\u201d Cordelia swallowed her bile as she saw the other vampires feasting on the victim that was supposed to be alive and healthy after the demon in her vision was killed.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, I\u2019m not cleaning it up, so don\u2019t. Let\u2019s go and see what your room looks like.\u201d Angelus grabbed her and swung her up in his arms. \u201cOh, don\u2019t be sour, your headache is gone right? Can\u2019t use that excuse for what I\u2019ve got planned. Can you?\u201d He smirked.<\/p>\n
Cordelia closed her eyes. Her headache was gone, now only thing left was a sharp pain in her heart and nausea. How stupid could she be that she thought that Angelus would actually do the right thing? He wasn\u2019t Angel.<\/p>\n
Cordelia had to believe that Wesley had discovered the identity of the demon that affected Angel, understood the implications and their disappearance from the hotel and was at this minute working on a cure. She just had to believe.<\/p>\n
And she had to keep Angelus preoccupied so that he wouldn\u2019t go out and kill anyone else, and she had to keep his torturing of her to a minimum or Angel would never forgive himself when he returned. She just had no clue how to do that.<\/p>\n
Angelus liked to cause fear and pain. Well the fear was easy. Cordelia was scared. Pain, she didn\u2019t want. And Angel would be very broody, if Angelus really hurt her. So, she would just have to let him really scare her, maybe that would be enough for the time being.<\/p>\n
And like she said, being frightened of Angelus was easy.<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, what do you think? It turned out pretty good.\u201d Angelus threw her on the big bed.<\/p>\n
Cordelia glanced around at the formerly empty room. Heavy brocade curtains of a rich Burgundy were hanging on the dirty walls, a heavy ornate wardrobe was in the corner. She looked down on the bed, the very large four-post bed she was lying on. She blinked \u2013 sheets and a comforter? Cordelia stared at the vampire.<\/p>\n
He was seriously asking her what she thought. Angelus was crazy. Angel never mentioned that Angelus was crazy, just psychotic and evil.<\/p>\n
Angelus jumped on the bed beside her; he captured her as she tried to scoot away. \u201cI asked- what do you think?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI was thinking, you\u2019re nuts. Certifiably nuts. This is a dark, dirty warehouse that you have me trapped in, planning to do gods know what to me, and you think I give a shit about curtains.\u201d<\/p>\n
Angelus laughed and pulled her down on the bed, on arm clapping her to his side as the other waved about. \u201cYes, but isn\u2019t it homey.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia struggled against the vampire. Angelus tightened his hold and threw a heavy leg over her body, stilling her movement. \u201cSure it could use some more work, but for a start, it\u2019s not bad.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia closed her eyes. \u201cDon\u2019t you want to go suck the world into hell or something?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTried it, been there, wasn\u2019t fun. No, this time, I\u2019ll start with the little pleasures,\u201d He swung his body over hers. \u201cBut, you won\u2019t be only a little pleasurable will you?\u201d<\/p>\n
His mouth attacked her throat, not biting, just licking and tasting. Angelus leaned up and licked his lips. \u201cSweet, salty and spicy, very tasty.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cEww, I\u2019m all stinky and dirty.\u201d She pushed away at the vampire. \u201cAnd I have to go to the bathroom.\u201d<\/p>\n
Angelus looked up. \u201cUh.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBathroom, you idiot. Human- bathroom. Get the picture or do you want me to show you as I wet your nice new bed.\u201d She grumbled. God. Angelus was dense, stupid and crazy. And unfortunately still very dangerous.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh. Human\u2019s are a pain.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen let me go or just kill me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI told you I\u2019m not ready to kill you just yet, but if you keep annoying me, I just maybe.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t care.\u201d Cordelia took a deep breath. So much for her plan to stall Angelus from hurting her, why couldn\u2019t she keep her mouth shut and just whimper in terror?<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not like she wasn\u2019t scared. \u201cI have to go to the bathroom.\u201d Her mouth refused to listen to her brain.<\/p>\n
\u201cFine.\u201d Angelus pulled her up and dragged her to the other side of the room, pushing her into a small room. Cordelia looked around, she turned back to the vampire. \u201cI\u2019m not going in there its gross. Look.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was a bathroom; a bathroom that hadn\u2019t been used in what seemed like a hundred years, dirt, rust and rat droppings littered the floor. The tub was a broken nasty looking thing and the toilet. Cordelia didn\u2019t even want to look.<\/p>\n
Angelus kept a hold of her hand and turned the faucets. Brown water poured out. \u201cIt\u2019s got running water. See.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s gross. See,\u201d she pointed to the slime that pounded into the sink.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s clearing up. See.\u201d Angelus pointed to the water. Cordelia scrunched up her face. Sure enough the slime was turning yellow, then finally clear.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s probably no hot water. It looks like my first apartment when I got to LA.\u201d<\/p>\n
Angelus stared at the young woman. Angel had never seen her first apartment. Cordelia Chase, Queen C, lived in a place that had a bathroom like this. Angelus would have loved to have seen it. \u201cWell, then you should be comfortable in there then. \u201c He pushed her to the toilet.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s no toilet paper and your not watching.\u201d<\/p>\n
Angelus growled. If he didn\u2019t have such plans for her he would kill her right then and there. Angelus stormed out of the bathroom. He stopped at her next words. She was hungry.<\/p>\n
Angelus was going to kill her. He took a deep breath and continued out of the room. Yelling for Clyde.<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
\u201cI told you to get food.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe did,\u201d he started to point to the body on the floor and then stopped. \u201cOh, you mean for your pet. Dan.\u201d He called to the other male vampire.<\/p>\n
Dan hurried over with a brown bag.<\/p>\n
Angelus looked in the bag. It would do. Angelus looked at Clyde as he pulled out toilet paper and paper towels.<\/p>\n
\u201cUm, I got those, I\u2019ve only been a vampire for a little while, I figured she would want them. Human\u2019s like stuff like that.\u201d Dan shuffled at the older vampires\u2019 glares.<\/p>\n
Except for Angelus, Angelus wasn\u2019t glaring he was nodding. \u201cWell done, Dan.\u201d Now maybe Cordelia would stop bitching and he could get on with his plans for her.<\/p>\n
Angelus looked around at the room. \u201cIf this is to be home for awhile, it needs to be cleaned up a bit, made more comfortable. Do it and then we can sit down and I will tell you how we will grow and become more prosperous.\u201d<\/p>\n
The three vampires looked at each other and then at Angelus. They nodded and started to pick up the trash surrounding the floor.<\/p>\n
They all had eaten more in the last few hours in Angelus’ company than they had in the last week. Angelus wanted clean. Angelus would get clean.<\/p>\n
Chapter 14<\/b><\/p>\n
Cordelia was still standing in the bathroom when he returned. \u201cWell.\u201d She glared her hands on her hips.<\/p>\n
Angelus just stared. She was making him do things for her, she expected him to do it. He would do this, but then Angelus would remind her quite thoroughly he wasn\u2019t the souled wimp that she could order around. He threw the toilet paper at her.<\/p>\n
Cordelia caught it and then slammed the door.<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
\u201cCome out now.\u201d She was taking forever. Angelus was losing all patience.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m trying to get clean.\u201d Cordelia stood at the sink, running her hands under the water trying to wet her arms and face. She wasn\u2019t about to step foot in that tub.<\/p>\n
Angelus yanked the door from its hinges. Cordelia turned and glared her arms crossing over her naked torso. \u201cGet out.\u201d<\/p>\n
Angelus left, but came back immediately with a shirt taken from the wardrobe.<\/p>\n
\u201cI said\u2026\u201d Angelus shoved a torn bit of the shirt into her mouth, effectively gagging her and quickly tied her swinging hands together. \u201cIf you don\u2019t stop moving, I\u2019ll do more than tie you up.\u201d Cordelia glared but stilled. \u201cThat\u2019s better. You want to be clean. Fine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Angelus wet the remaining piece of material and roughly started to wash Cordelia\u2019s torso. The roughness changes to teasing as he realized that his plans could start. Cordelia was gagged, no more nagging and she was in front of him, almost nude. His hand went to her pants and yanked. Cordelia\u2019s body lurched forward as he ripped the pants down her hips.<\/p>\n
Angelus smiled as he knelt in front of her, one hand clenched tightly on her hips, squeezing painfully every time she moved. He kept squeezing until she finally stilled. With the cloth in the other hand, he rubbed around her stomach, the cloth drifting down between her thighs. A bruise was already starting to form where his fingers clenched tighter forcing her once again to remain still at the cloths movements. Low grunts of protest came from her gagged mouth.<\/p>\n
Angelus stood and smiled at the tears of anger and fear flowed from her eyes. He went to brush at the tears, he laughed as Cordelia jerked her head back.<\/p>\n
Angelus pulled at her bound wrists dragging her towards the wardrobe. Cordelia tripped and fell as her feet got tangled in the pants that were down around her legs.<\/p>\n
Angelus just laughed as she fell and groan of pain sounded through the gag as Cordelia scraped her thigh on the rough floor. Angelus took what he needed from the wardrobe and pulled her back up and hoisting her in his arms. He strode over to the bed and threw Cordelia on it.<\/p>\n
He landed on top of her his weight holding her down as he untied her hands and retied each to a bedpost. Angelus got up and removed her shoes and her pants, tying each foot to a bedpost. Angelus got up. \u201cNow, it begins.\u201d He laughed, pulling his clothes off.<\/p>\n
Cordelia struggled tugging at the restraints, her tears falling. Angelus leaned over her, taking the gag out of her mouth. \u201cYou can scream all you want now. In fact, I insist.\u201d Angelus bit down on her breast and drank.<\/p>\n
Cordelia choked on her scream, she would not give him the satisfaction.<\/p>\n
Angelus looked up. \u201cSo brave, so silly to think you can fight me. You will scream in pain and pleasure when I\u2019m done with you. You will be begging me to take you and then to kill you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve been begging you to kill me since I got here, stupid bastard.\u201d She spit.<\/p>\n
Angelus rested his chin on her bloody wound. \u201cTrue, but this time you\u2019ll mean it.\u201d He returned his mouth to her wound, licking the surrounding blood, moving to the expanse of her waist and stomach. His hand alternating between harsh groping and tender caresses.<\/p>\n
Cordelia closed her eyes trying to block out what was happening to her. She wouldn\u2019t break; she wouldn\u2019t let this destroy her or her love for Angel. This was not Angel. She bit her lips, focusing on the pain she was inflicting upon herself, attempting to ignore the pain and pleasure that Angelus lips and hands were afflicting on her body.<\/p>\n
She gasped as she felt the heavy cold weight shift over her body. Her eyes flew open into Angelus mocking ones. \u201cTrying to remind yourself that I\u2019m not Angel. That I\u2019m the evil twin, the one you hate, not the one you love. You are stupid, Cordelia Chase. You who think you know Angel so well. I\u2019m Angel, just not with a soul.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m only doing what he wants to do to you, but won\u2019t allow himself because of the soul thing. I\u2019m him. He’s me. I just do what I want, when I want.\u201d Angelus laughed flashing his game face.<\/p>\n
\u201cCordy, love, let me introduce you to the real Angel, not the wimp the soul and you have made him become.\u201d He plunged his fangs into her neck as his hand thrust her thighs wider apart.<\/p>\n
Chapter 15<\/b><\/p>\n
\u201cNow what?\u2019 Gunn said over the dead body of the Auferote.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe go back and wait for Angel to bring Cordelia home.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou better be right.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wesley looked at Gunn, his eyes unreadable. \u201cI am, I just hope that we were in time to prevent Angelus from doing too much damage.\u201d<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
Cordelia gasped, her body tense waiting for Angelus to forcefully enter her. She waited but it never came.<\/p>\n
She felt his body lift off hers; she felt her hands being untied. Cordelia sat up her eyes opened looking questioningly at Angelus. The vampire just sat at the end of the bed, his body slumped.<\/p>\n
She moved slightly. The vampire\u2019s head shot up. She stilled waiting for whatever game he was playing now. Cordelia\u2019s eyes widened, she wasn\u2019t looking at the mocking eyes of Angelus.<\/p>\n
Angelus never looked guilty, never looked heartbroken.<\/p>\n
She closed her eyes as a surge of relief went through her body; she shot towards the vampire, her arms wrapping around him. \u201cAngel.\u201d She murmured, smiling and crying at the same time, holding him tight. The vampire didn\u2019t respond.<\/p>\n
\u201cAngel?\u201d Cordelia leaned back.<\/p>\n
Angel nodded, but wouldn\u2019t look at her. He got off the bed untying her feet.<\/p>\n
\u201cAngel. Look at me.\u201d She ran to him, her hands going to his face.<\/p>\n
Angel moved her hands away, still not looking at her. \u201cGet dressed. I have to take you home.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia stepped back. \u201cOkay,\u201d she stammered. She leaned down to pick up her torn pants. \u201cUm. \u201c She held the ruined clothes.<\/p>\n
Angel saw and turned away. He pointed to the wardrobe. Cordelia shrugged and went to cabinet. Cordelia opened the doors and stared. There were tons of clothes, nice clothes. All women\u2019s clothes. She turned to Angel, but Angel wasn\u2019t looking at her.<\/p>\n
He was finishing dressing, pulling on his black duster. \u201cStay here, until I come back.\u201d He said never turning, going to the door.<\/p>\n
Yeah right.<\/em> Cordelia hurried and pulled out some clothes. She ran to the door, stopping by the brown bag resting there. Curiosity killed the cat, but Cordelia had just avoided rape and death, so she felt brave.<\/p>\n She looked in and pulled out food, tons of human food. Food that she liked. When had Angelus gone shopping, she didn\u2019t remember seeing him ever come in with a bag of food. Or did he give a list to one of those stupid vampires down stairs. She dropped the bag and went for the door.<\/p>\n Angel was going to fight those vampires. Cordelia needed to help.<\/p>\n Okay, maybe she didn\u2019t. Cordelia watched from the bottom of the stairs as Angel dusted all of the vampires, quickly and easily without a word.
