Laurent's POV

After Jacob passed out, James carefully lifted him off me. Then let his body fall unceremoniously onto the other side of the couch. I was already crossing the room, opening a small hidden compartment in the wall. Lighting two cigarettes for both of us, I sat on top of the giant cage to admire our handy work.

"He was pretty good." James commented, blowing a puff of smoke into the air. I nodded as he inhaled deeply.

"Too bad we have to kill him." I completed his train of thought quickly. James always had a hard time letting go of something he liked. I resisted the urge to sigh. He wanted to keep the boy already, but that's where I draw the lines for these sick games. It's bad enough that whenever he feels like it, we kidnap and rape any youth we want. But I refuse to leave a trail.

"Aww, come on, Laurent! Not even a few days?" He already resorted to begging. Stupid puppy eyes. Does he not realize that the puppy eyes make me want to kill the humans that much more? I shook my head, inhaling on my cigarette deeply.

"You know the rules James." All rules are to prevent human suspicions. And the only one I have to enforce is the one killing all of our victims.

"But don't you think-"

"No, James. Rules exist for a reason. And you know what that reason is." I told him harshly. I didn't need vampire senses to know that his heart sunk. This victim seems to mean more to him then most of the others. I felt bad for being mean. But I can't just let him have his way. Or else he'd want to stay an entire coven of vampires from the humans we rape.

"I'll take care of it, James. You can relax." I patted his shoulder, knowing he wouldn't want to dispose of a toy, so to speak. He gave a quiet cough of disgust. Great, now he's mad at me.

I will admit, yes this kid was worth a good time and everything. Is he a pretty decent candidate to keep? Yeah. Am I going to let it slide? Hell no.

I tossed what was left of my cigarette away and tossed Jacob's limp body over my shoulder. James watched me disdainfully as I dragged the boy toward the storm drain hidden in the corner. There I cut his neck open and began lapping at the blood slowly. The boy was too tired to notice a single thing. After a few moments of this, I heard James sigh and come to join me. I offered the boy's neck to him and allowed him to feed.

"You can't tell me you don't want him either." James mentioned to me when the boy was brought to the brink of death. A last chance. Feeling guilty for the way I behaved, I did admit to him,

"I do want him." With a sad childish look, James held out his arms, offering the boy to me.

Sometime vampires have special powers. I don't. But when I sired James several decades ago, I found that he had one of those special powers. His venom makes all things subjected to pleasure. That's what we didn't to Jacob earlier. But because of that power, James couldn't change anyone. Only I could. Which is why he offered Jacob to me. And I can't believe I submitted to the will of my overly sexual mate.

"You know this will be a one time only thing, right?" James nodded.

"It'll never happen again." Looking a little agitated, he nodded again.

"Even if you find someone else you want more then him, I won't change them." Now he just frowned. Not like he was considering the alternative. More like he was annoyed with my thinking.

"I just want you to know, you're picking him. Over every other opportunity you might get. You're picking him."

"I understand, Laurent. I won't ask this of you ever again." He sounded pretty sincere. It was right then that I realized, he didn't choose this victim because he was handsome or had an innocent looking face. He felt something for this boy that was hardly sexual. He honestly cared for the boy and didn't want him to die.

Softly, I cradled Jacobs head, balancing the rest of his body on my lap. James watched and waited. I listened to the boys heart beat as I carefully released my venom into his body stream. A quiet groan told me that it already took. James reached out and touched the boy's brow, never taking his eyes away.

"I want to move him someplace warm." I nodded to his request, lifting the human easily. It's plain to see that I am a bit of a slave to my mate. Jacob groaned again and whimpered. I automatically held him closer to my breast. I could already see how the next few weeks were going to be. It's all going to surround keeping Jacob safe. Even though he is going to end up as a second mate, in a sense, I couldn't stomach the fatherly sense I got when I thought of siring. I felt the same way about James for at least a month after his siring.

"I love you Laurent." James reminded me as I took the boy to our bed. It's a common misconception that vampires can't sleep, when in reality, we can sleep. We just don't have any need to. It's like breathing really. If we want to sleep, we can. But if we want to stop entirely, we can. (Did you know, that a normal human can go about 10 days without sleep or any sort of rest before their bodies just give out?)

"I love you too, James. More then you'll ever know."

The end! I wanted to stop at just five chapters but I couldn't. How did you like the ending? I realize that I'm not very good at sex scenes, especially the ones containing bondage, since I'm not that sadistic. But hey, practice makes perfect, right? Anyway, let me know what you think!

(and before some of you ask, there won't be any sequels. I considered it for a moment but I know that I wouldn't be able to do it. Look, it even took me four months just to get six chapters done. Image how terrible it would be if I tried to extend it to something more then kinky sex?)

Thank you very much for reading! I do sincerely hope you review!
