Surrender

by Cassandre Dayne

  Aleks said nothing, giving Jax time to decide. Breathing a swath of air across Jax’s neck, he licked up to his earlobe as he took a fingertip and feathered it lightly back and forth across the inside of Jax’s thigh. “Don’t you want to find the murderer, Jax? You know why he wants this. He knew that you would be my choice. Of course you had to be. I wonder why he wants to taunt you?” Easing his hand another inch across Jax’s leg, he inhaled and wrapped his hand around the base of Jax’s shaft, stroking gently. God, he wanted this man more than he had any others. “Tell me you want me.”

  “Oooohhh…Aleks…I…” Dropping his hand, Aleks groaned.

  Crack!

  “Aaahhh!” Jax jerked forward.

  “You answer me when I command you period. Tell me.”

  “I…I want you to…fuck me…”

  Encouraged, Aleks suckled Jax’s neck, drawing the flesh between his teeth. Stroking Jax’s cock, he pulsed his hand up and down the entire length, raking his nail over the sensitive slit. “You feel so good. I’m going to slide my dick inside your ass, filling you until you call out my name.”

  Jax reached back and wrapped his arm around Aleks’ shoulder, arching his back. His body shaking, a series of scattered moans pulsed back his lips. “Yes…I…”

  Taking his other hand, Aleks moved it between them, tracing a line up and down the crack of Jax’s ass. Pushing him forward slightly, he continued pumping his throbbing shaft in slow, languishing moves as he used his fingers to part Jax’s ass cheeks. “Yes…I’m sure you’re so tight.” Rimming his dark hole, Aleks pushed the tip of his finger inside.

  “Oooohhhh…I…” Jax jerked involuntarily and gripped Aleks’ leg.

  Aleks kicked Jax’s legs further apart and pushed him over at the waist. “Yes, that’s it.” Pushing his digit in further, he hit the tight ring of muscle. Smiling, he closed his eyes and drew his finger out adding a second. As he slid them both inside, pushing past the muscle, he flexed his fingers open and closed, barely able to contain his needs. “You’re tight. Imagine my cock buried inside of you.” Growling, he nipped and sucked the side of Jax’s neck as he stroked Jax’s shaft, going up and down the entire length. “Hear me, sweet Jax. I’m going to fuck you hard like you’ve always hungered for but were afraid to admit. You’re going to belong to me both body and soul and tonight your training begins.” It wasn’t a question but a blatant statement of truth and Aleks knew that Jax was ready to accept.

  “Uh…” Jax shivered and leaned forward slightly as if offering blatantly.

  In and out Aleks pushed his fingers, driving with long, hard strokes ready to take the man that would belong to him. “I’m going to take you now. The pictures can wait.”

  “No…I…yes…um…”

  Crack! Slap!

  “You deserve to be punished.”

  Hesitating, Jax shivered. “Yes…sir.”

  Surprised, Aleks guided him slowly toward the bed, pushing him over the edge and tossed the ring down beside him. “Remain still.” Pushing Jax’s head all the way to the bed, he glided to his collection of toys and grabbed a leather belt. As he gazed at Jax’s waiting form, he sighed. “Twenty lashes today. When you’re with me you will obey every command, every desire. Is that understood?”

  “Yes.”

  Whoosh! Crack!

  “Aaahhhh!” Jax jerked back as the lashes connected on his ass, wrapping around his thigh.

  “And the first order of obeying is you call me Sir or Master. Now, is that understood?”

  Jax panted and dropped his head. “Yes, sir.”

  “Better,” Aleks cooed.

  Pop! Slap! Crack!

  As Aleks drew the belt back and slammed it against Jax’s ass, he trembled in anticipation of thrusting his cock hard into the man. Peppering Jax’s ass with long hard strokes the sound of the belt connecting on Jax’s tender flesh crackled into the room, sending a shower of electric current dancing into the air. His hunger bursting, Aleks licked his lips in appreciation of the red welts on Jax’s ass.

  “Ah…ohoh….yyyyeeessss!”

  Crack!

  The last stroke of punishment given, he strode toward Jax realizing that he wouldn’t be denied. This moment was not mating but merely sex and hunger fusing together in a fantasy they both shared. Kicking Jax’s legs apart, Aleks grunted and unfastened his pants. Leaning over, he nipped Jax’s earlobe and wanted nothing more than to sink his fangs into his jugular but it wasn’t time yet. Sliding his finger down the crack of Jax’s ass, Aleks tipped his head back and growled into the humid air. This was well worth waiting for. Unfastening his pants, he freed his cock and stroked from the base to the tip as he gazed down at his lover.

  Jax trembled as he gripped the bedding and yet he arched his back as a blatant offering.

  Pressing the tip of his shaft to the entrance of Jax’s dark hole, the savage creature within him rose to the surface. Sliding his dick just inside, he held Jax’s hips and leaned to lick across the heat of Jax’s neck. “You’ll be mine in body and soul.”

  Jax moaned and dropped his head.

  Aleks snarled and thrust his cock inside in one long hard drive. “Yyyyeeeeesss!”

  “Aaaaahhhh!” Jax threw his head back and wailed yet he opened his legs wide.

  “That’s it. Take all of me.” Aleks withdrew his shaft until just the tip was inside and then drove into his ass in long deep drives as his fingers clawed into Jax’s tender flesh. “So tight.” Hissing, Aleks roared to the Gods of night around them. Soon they would mate. In and out he continued the savage motions as every stroke became a manic display of his famished beast.

  Jax grunted and thrust his hips back meeting every hard thrust. “Oh…ohohoh!”

  “Yes, that’s it. Relax.”

  “Mmmm….ohoh…” Jax thrashed his head back and forth as his legs quaked.

  “Yes…tasty boy.” Aleks knew he wouldn’t last long. As he hungered to slice his fangs into his lover, he resisted. Plunging in hard thrusts, his heart raced from a need he’d never felt before. Gripping Jax’s hips, he couldn’t hold back the raging tide. Driving into his ass until he could no longer focus as a series of vibrant flashes pulsed across his field of vision, he threw his head back and erupted inside. “Yyyyyeeeessss!”

  “Ooooohhhh…”

  Aleks continued driving into him until the last of his cum spewed into Jax’s ass. His eyes barely focusing, he tipped his head back and snarled. “You are mine now, Jax Steele.” Sliding his arm around Jax’s thigh, Aleks wrapped his hand around the base of Jax’s pulsing erection and squeezed. “Mmm…you need to cum?”

  “Yes,” Jax whispered, his body shaking.

  Aleks toyed with him, pumping Jax’s cock until beads of pre-cum flowed from his slit. “Not yet.” Raking his finger through the trickle of sperm, Aleks brought his finger to his mouth, savoring the flavor of the man. “You only cum when I allow you to and you haven’t been a good boy. Now we continue.” Licking Jax’s neck, he growled. “You do understand?”

  “Yes…no…I…” Tossing his head back and forth, Jax moaned.

  Aleks heard the confusion mix with need and as Jax grew rigid he removed his cock slowly and licked down the length of Jax’s neck. “You’ll understand your need soon enough.” He helped Jax off the edge of the bed and patted his ass. Fastening his own pants, Aleks brushed his hands through his hair and sniffed before grabbing the cock ring. “You respond well to pain and pleasure. Discipline Jax is vital and one I see you crave. We’ll share many more experiences.”

  Scuttling forward, Jax grabbed the cock ring out of Aleks’ hand and look a long stride forward. Fiddling, he inhaled deeply. “The pictures can’t wait.” His voice strangled, he shivered.

  “Fine. The pictures will show a dazzling glow of a man freshly fucked. Allow me to help you.” Desire remained burrowed inside Aleks. His need almost insatiable, he snarled and dragged his tongue across his canines.

  “I can do it myself.” Fumbling, Jax kept his back turned
as he studied the ring. His body swaying back and forth, he struggled to catch his breath.

  Shaking his head, Aleks sighed. “You’re exhausted and you need food.”

  “Hear me. I don’t know what just happened but I can’t…”

  “The pictures sweet lover.”

  “Yes…I…I haven’t slept much as you can imagine and I can’t…eat.”

  “We’ll get the remainder of the shots quickly.” Aleks sniffed. Durac had arrived. Gazing out the window he knew the vampire sensed the human.

  Jax turned slowly and wiped beads of sweat from his brow. “Fine. What do I do?”

  “Kneel, raise your hands out and lower your head.”

  As Jax lowered slowly onto his knees, he licked his lips before dropping his head. “No offense, Aleks but when this is over, I never want to see you again.”

  Aleks smiled. “Spread your legs and turn your hands over. You know what you need, Jax. Your body doesn’t lie.” In a matter of minutes he took the necessary shots. “You can get up now.” As he watched Jax struggle to get to his feet, he caught the look of haunted pain flash across the detective’s face. “Did the demons destroy you, Jax and which ones are you running from?”

  “The same ones we all have, Aleks.” Jax snarled and wiped his face. “Finish this bullshit.”

  “Some more than others I suppose, sweet man. You hide from yourself and what you need. Why? You just had your first experience with the dark fantasy you’ve searched for your entire life and you seemed to crave what we shared. Are you terrified of being a homosexual?”

  “No! No…I’m…not…”

  “Which is it, Jax? We just shared a wonderful moment so which is it?”

  Jax jerked his head up and hissed. “It was wrong…I…”

  “Wrong? Your cock remains hard. Will you do all I ask if I allow you to cum?” Seeing the question rattle Jax to the core, Aleks shook his head. “No need to answer. You’ve found the one man who can give you everything you’ve ever yearned for. Succumb to me and I’ll teach you many thing.”

  Jax opened and closed his mouth before rubbing his eyes. “What are you hiding, Aleks? You seem to want me to believe in your innocence yet every step of the way I’m faced with you being smack in the middle of the case.”

  As the insinuation flew from the detective’s mouth, Aleks could tell he was hinting at something. If only he could read the man’s mind. Damn Durac for taking the ability away. “What do you mean?”

  Placing his hands on his hips, Jax tipped his head and yet couldn’t keep his gaze locked on Aleks. “Who are you really?”

  “Meaning?”

  “Did you wipe off your fingerprints from your car or do you not have fingerprints?”

  The question caught Aleks completely off guard. Smiling wryly, he held up his hand showing the ridges. While the good detective had stumbled on his true identity accidentally, by all appearances he was completely human. While his heart didn’t beat per se, blood coursed through his body, keeping his skin tones warm and while cool to the touch, he could pass for being alive. “Would you like a closer examination?”

  “Then that means you wiped them off.”

  “Hardly detective. Your tests are wrong. Did you find any from the person who destroyed my car?” Hmmm… The detective was getting too close.

  Jax smiled. “Not yet but we will.”

  “Time for our final task, Jax Steele.” Nodding to the iron bar hanging from the ceiling, Aleks sensed a curious dread growing in the detective as Jax locked his gaze on the hanging noose. The two sets of chains dangled from the hard steel with a single box positioned in the middle. “Some say that the euphoric rapture just at the moment of dying is the most powerful aphrodisiac known. Tell me, sweet Jax, are you prepared to enter a moment of blackness?”

  Gulping, Jax wiped a trickle of sweat from his brow. “People do this shit?”

  “All the time. Come.” As Aleks guided Jax to the center, he pressed his hand over the man’s face. “You must trust me or you will get hurt. Do you understand?”

  “Yes.”

  “Step onto the box.” Raising first one of Jax’s wrists to the manacle and then the next, Aleks secured him carefully and stood back. Nikolay was testing his will powers. The choice of having a human’s life in his very hands in such a different manner was cunning. “We’ll do this very quickly. Do not struggle or you will lose your life.” Climbing on an adjacent stool, Aleks placed the heavy-duty robe around Jax’s neck and pulled it taut. Inhaling the intense scent of Jax’s fear, he emitted a single low growl and stepped off, grabbing his camera.

  “What can I anticipate?” Jax breathed, his body shaking.

  “For some it’s utter terror that drags their soul into a moment of hell. For others it’s nothing more than a taste of rapture and an eagerness for more.” Aleks gazed up at his lover and licked his lips, allowing his hand to travel down from Jax’s waist to his swelling cock. Grazing his finger down the length of Jax’s shaft, he smiled as his lover shivered at his touch. “I shall enjoy showing you all the joys of being with me.

  Swallowing hard, Jax opened and closed his eyes.” Let’s get this over with.”

  “Very well, detective.” Aleks hissed and kicked the box from under Jax’s feet, the force pushing Jax’s body into a swinging position.

  As the look of surprise turned into an utter moment of complete horror, Jax struggled with his bindings, pitching his body back and forth. “Aaaahhhhhh!”

  Aleks took shot over shot in rapid succession only allowing the damning event to continue briefly. Setting the camera down, he quickly grabbed the box and placed it under Jax’s legs. As the man coughed and sputtered, he growled seeing Jax’s real turmoil. “We’re done. No more.” He swore in the language of his people and wished nothing but blackness and death for Nikolay.

  Choking, Jax sputtered and coughed as Aleks removed his shackles. His entire body shaking, he panted and wrapped his arms around Aleks’ neck. “I…uh…”

  “That’s it. I have you. Don’t talk yet.” His touch gentle, Aleks eased him down and held the shaking man, caressing his back until Jax’s breathing returned to normal. “You did well.”

  “How…can…people do…that kind of…shit?” Jax breathed.

  “There are many aspects of fetish play that humans enjoy. I for one am not into this method of dying.”

  Jax lifted his head. “You say…that as if…you’re not a sadomasochist.” Easing back from Aleks, he wiped his mouth.

  “I’m in to domination of man and my lover, not sadism.” Leaning forward, Aleks cupped Jax’s chin, holding it tightly. “One day you’ll beg for more and until then, I’ll be your lover.” Capturing Jax’s mouth, Aleks pressed his tongue past Jax’s lips, relishing in the taste of the man that forced his cock against the tight confines of his pants. Grunting, he slid his hand down Jax’s back to his ass, kneading the carved flesh.

  Jax pushed against him hard, clawing and gripping his arm until he slowly succumbed, sliding his arm around Aleks’ neck and dragging him tightly into the heat of his body. The kiss became a manic roar of need as their tongues entwined, exploring the dark reaches. Grinding his shaft into Aleks’ groin, he moaned into the kiss.

  Aleks gripped him tightly as he squeezed Jax’s ass before sliding his finger up and down the length of Jax’s crack. Every part of his body sizzled, hungry to take the man and while he was normally the receiver, the Master, tonight he longed to taste Jax in every way. Breaking the kiss, he nipped Jax’s lower lip before dropping slowly to his knees.

  “What are…” Unable to finish, Jax sucked in his breath and closed his eyes as he gripped Aleks’ shoulder.

  Aleks took Jax’s throbbing erection into his hands and grazed his finger up and down the length. Squeezing Jax’s balls, he was rewarded with a single whimper as Jax pushed his groin forward. His hunger too great, he engulfed Jax’s cock, taking his cock all the way to the base.

  “Sweet Jesus!” Jax moaned, his legs shaki
ng.

  Licking and sucking, using his strong jaw muscles, Aleks savored the intense tang of his lover as he continued squeezing his balls to the point of pain.

  “Oh…I…ohohoh!” Tossing his head back, Jax exhaled as he grabbed Aleks’ head. His legs shaking, Jax fucked Aleks’ mouth, going in and out in long hard drives.

  Aleks growled as his fangs pushed against his gums, the anguish building. As the first beads of pre-cum slid down his throat, Jax’s temperature dropped. Withdrawing Jax’s cock, Aleks held his hips as he glanced up at Jax. His body was shutting down.

  “What?” Jax whispered as his body wavered.

  “You’re growing too ill. I must help you,” Aleks rose to his feet. He eased back and groaned.

  “What do you mean?” As Jax took a step forward, he gasped and grabbed his heart. “What…”

  “Shit!” Rushing toward him, Aleks growled as he grabbed Jax’s body before it fell to the floor. “Fuck. Stay with me, Jax.” Lifting him into his arms, he cradled Jax’s trembling body.

  “What’s…happening to…me?” Jax breathed, his voice barely audible.

  “Your body is shutting down bodily functions. Without blood you’ll die. I’ll try and reverse what’s been done to you but I can’t promise without a blood transfusion.”

  “Even with a transfusion, he could die and that was not my intent,” Durac said as he walked further into the room.

  “I could kill you for your impetuous behavior!” Laying Jax down on the bed, Aleks pressed strands of sweaty hair from his face. “How long have you been standing there?”

  “Long enough to know that you’ve begun the mating process.” Durac closed the distance to the bed.

  “I couldn’t resist,” Aleks hissed as he gazed down at Jax. It was too soon to turn him. The one aspect of their mating that was vital to the continuation of the race was producing children. If Jax could give them a child to keep then they could in a sense, continue their race.
