MAKING OF A QUEEN

 

 

"Stop here," I tell the driver, grabbing Spike's hand when he tries to slide it under my skirt, yet *again.* Glares just don't seem to faze him, not that I mind but shopping requires concentration. At least the way *I* shop, it does. And besides, I'd rather not spend the next couple hours turned on.

 

All right fine, not *too* turned on, anyway.

 

I get out of the taxi first and of course his hand ends up on my ass as he follows me. I just sigh and turn to contemplate the options. When I asked Spike how much money we had to spend, he told me 'as much as you want.' I'm not sure if he realizes how dangerous a thing that is to say to Cordelia Chase.

 

But he's about to find out.

 

 

I squeeze her ass a bit and nip her throat, which is oh so more tempting now, since she knows something of mating and what it means.

 

I'm hoping to bury my fangs in some of my favorite parts later, when we get back home.

 

"So, Pet," I ask, pulling her against me. "Where to first? Perhaps to get you something less trashy to wear tonight? Or are you hungry?"

 

 

I've died and gone to heaven. But of course not, because vampire here. It just feels like it, though. It's been so long since I've had the opportunity to act like I had money.

 

"Huh?" I turn and look at him, because I knew he was talking. I wasn't listening though. Too busy planning. "Clothes first," I say because I'm sure he just asked me something like that. We walk down the sidewalk and the first clothing store we hit is the Wolford Boutique. *Very* high-priced, but hey, I've definitely got the money for it now.

 

We're not even inside, when we're descended on by a saleswoman. And the way she looks at me makes me remember what I'm wearing. "Are you lost?" she says, giving me the once over and looking down her nose at me all at once.

 

"No, I'm shopping," I reply. "So..."

 

I grab Spike by the hand and try to walk around her, but she heads me off again. "I'm really not sure we're your style, Dear."

 

 

I growl at the woman and say, "You *will* let us through, or *I'll* rip your throat out."

 

 

Okay, that worked to make her back up a few steps. But we didn't come here for a massacre, so -- "You need to back off, Lady and let me do some shopping," I tell her. "Unless you'd like me to take ... " I turn to Spike and hold out my hand. He hands me the wallet, and I pull out a wad of hundreds before I put them away again. "... all that money to another store?"

 

That's the language these people understand. I should know I used to be one of them. "Oh, no, I'm sorry, I just misjudged the situation," she says; stepping back and letting us pass. "Take your time, let me or any of the others know if you have any questions. I do apologize again; we've just had some trouble lately. "

 

"You can go away now, I'll call you if I want you," I say to her over my shoulder. I grin when she hurries off. Then I turn to Spike, who still looks mad. "Hey." I put my hand on his cheek and he looks at me. "Thank you for standing up for me," I say and kiss him quickly before turning to look at the clothes.

 

I start walking through the racks, and pick out some nice dresses. I notice Spike eyeing their lingerie section. Of course. But I don't let him pull me over there just *yet.*

 

 

She paws through the racks and the *least* I can do, is paw *her*.

 

So I do. I stand behind her and slide my hands around her waist to rest on her belly, just above her quim and just below her navel. I kiss her shoulders and neck while she flips through the dresses.

 

"That one is nice," I say. "Have a purpose in mind for 'em? 'Sides takin' 'em off, I mean."

 

 

I shrug. "Wishful thinking?" I say. "These are the fashions of the rich and famous, after all. And I *am* still planning on being an actress, so it doesn't hurt to have the clothes ready for all the parties and things we'll be invited to, when that happens."

 

Oh did I just say 'we'? I think I did. I walk over to contemplate a not-so-fancy but still very pricey red pantsuit. That would work, for my next audition. I find it in my size and then turn to him. "Okay. I think I'd better try on some of this stuff, so I can decide if it all looks as good on me as it does on the mannequins."

 

 

"I'll help!" I say with a wink. "C'mon."

 

I grab a few of the dresses from her and walk back to where the dressing rooms appear to be. Any excuse to get in front of a mirror with her...

 

She steps into the changing room and I follow her in. "I'll undress you, Luv," I suggest.

 

 

Shit. *So* tempting. And he knows it too, because he smiles and takes the clothes, hanging them on the rack on the wall behind me.

 

I turn to look at the mirror and blink a couple times. I'd forgotten about the reflection thing. I jump when his hands slide around my waist to pull my blouse out from the waist of my skirt. I feel him... pressed against me, wrapped around me, but I don't see him. And I'm not sure *why* it's such a turn-on, but it is.

 

I moan when I feel his cool hands slide up along my torso and brush over my breasts, as he pulls my blouse with him. "Be-behave yourself, or you can't stay," I say. I *am* here to try on clothes. Not fuck in the dressing room. Although we could do both...

 

No. We just had sex an hour ago. And several times in the shower, before that. And then *again* in the shower *after* that. So I really shouldn't be this hot for him, this soon. I can wait, and so can he.

 

 

"Why should I?" I whisper huskily into her ear, "when I'm so *bad*..." I take her ear lobe into my mouth and I cup her tits and watch her nipples peak in the mirror.

 

"Look between your legs, Pet... that's for me," I explain as I slide my hand down between those thighs and whisper, "All. for. me."

 

 

I open my eyes and moan when I see how wet I am. And getting wetter by the second, as he runs a finger between my outer lips, teasing me. And it's just... bizarre but still very erotic to be able to see him part me, but not see his fingers doing it. I whimper and bite my lip as he pushes two fingers inside, slowly. "Spike... ah... god... we can't... "

 

 

"Can't what? Can't *feel* this?" I shake my head, "What about *this*?" I press the fingers against the top of her channel.... right... *there*.

 

 

"FU--" He puts his other hand over my mouth to stifle my scream as I come. He holds me against him as his fingers continue working me, drawing out my orgasm. All I can do is whimper and moan and buck my hips against those fingers. And I watch the whole thing, which makes it even *more* intense.

 

Finally I slump against him, still trembling a little and panting for breath. And shit, I wasn't expecting him to be able to bring me to orgasm *that* fast. I guess I was more worked up than I realized.

 

Or he's just getting better at making me come whenever he wants to. Scary thought.

 

I turn my head so he can kiss me. When he pulls away, I say, "Now I'm all sticky," pouting. "How am I supposed to try on these clothes now?"

 

 

"I could offer a suggestion," I say as I sink to my knees in front of her, licking my way down her delectable body.

 

I clean off her thighs of the sticky mess before flicking my tongue against her sex. "You taste so bloody wonderful, Pet. I *wish* you could taste yourself like I do. You'd never wanna drink anything else."

 

 

I moan and pull his head away, gently. "The sooner you let me try on these clothes, the sooner we can go home, where we can taste each other all we want," I say.

 

That gets his attention. He stands up and hands me a dress and I grin at him as I slip it on. "Of course we could always go to another club first, to try that night out dancing plan again?

 

"But you still need to help me pick out some lingerie, before that. I'm sure they have some interesting stuff here. Or we could go to Fredricks, like you suggested."

 

 

"We find you some leather and you can give me a lap dance," I smile as I look her over in the dark green. "I like it- very sleek, sexy- of course you're only allowed to look sexy for me."

 

"What about the suit?" I ask, pointing to it. It's sharp. I bet she'd look great in it. She's got a great body- duh. But the shape is good too. She's got nice hips, nice arse, ample chest... nice belly and abs... she's just got a great body. And I bet that suit would make her look *hot*.

 

 

I try it on, with his help. Depending on your definition of help... but I finally get the suit on. I look at myself in the mirror and that suit is definitely me. "Oh yeah. I'm getting this one. When I go to an audition in *this*, the director won't assume I'm so desperate as to need to sleep with him to get the job." And that will be a nice change.

 

 

"Well- you don't *need* to think about it all. You don't have to work, Luv."

 

Damn, that fits her well- shows off her curves in all the right places... shit- I'm hard. Have I *not* been hard since I found her in the pool? I seem to recall even *sleeping* hard... hm. Must be *her*.

 

 

I turn to look at him as I take off the suit. "I know I don't *have* to, but I want to. If I'd ever *wanted* to work, do you think I would've chosen to try to get into acting? No, I chose that because I want it. I want to be... "

 

I shake my head and put the suit back on the hanger. I don't want to argue with him. I don't know how to explain, anyway, this need to pull myself back up to the status I was used to for eighteen years. How do I make him understand that I can't go through the rest of my life with people looking down at me, like the saleswoman in this store, the desk guy at his hotel, and everyone else in the last two months - other than Spike - have?

 

I just want to be *me* again, the girl who everyone looked *up* to.

 

 

"You want to be powerful," I say. "I understand that, Luv. Hell- I've been there myself." She slips another slinky dress on and I slide my hands from her waist to her shoulders, brushing over her nipples as well. The dress hugs her tightly.

 

"You want people to notice you and *know* you're better than them." I kiss her neck a bit and say, "You *have* that, you just don't know it, yet."

 

 

"I do? Is that why every man I've come into contact with assumes I'm desperate enough to sleep with him to get what I want? Or why people look at the way I dress and assume I must be a prostitute? When I was in Sunnydale, people didn't dare assume those things, because they *knew* who I was."

 

I shake my head and pull the dress off. I don't want to get into this. He doesn't *know* what I've been through. How when dad lost everything people either pitied us or mocked us. He doesn't know that I lost all my friends because I was stupid enough to ditch them for Xander, and then after we broke up I didn't even have who I *was* to make people want to be my friends. And I don't know why I came here, I wanted to start over I think.

 

I just don't think it occurred to me I'd be starting over from the bottom. But I'm sure as hell not going to stay there. I *will* fight to make my name matter again, and people like that bitch saleswoman out there will *beg* me to visit her store then.

 

 

"People *know* who you are, Luv. You're just lookin' in the wrong circles is all."

 

I look at the pile of clothes and say, "Gonna get 'em all?"

 

 

"Should I?" I ask with a sigh as I put on my original clothes again. Suddenly I feel like this is all just a waste of time. And money. Not that it's our money... but it's just not practical. I don't have fancy parties to go to anymore, like I did when I was at the Chase mansion. So other than the few pantsuits, those will work for auditions, there's no need for all this other stuff. I'll probably never wear any of those dresses anyway, like Spike said. "Maybe we should check out some of those other stores that are more my style, instead." I shrug.

 

 

"Your style?" I ask incredulously. "*Any*thing is *your* *style*, Pet. Hell, a plastic *bag* would be your style. If you want them, you'll have them. Anything you want is yours, Pet. *Any*thing."

 

She opens the doors and I follow her out. "I *do* like the suit and I liked the two dresses, although you'll need something a tad more elegant for next week..."

 

 

"I liked them all, I just won't ever wear--" I turn to look at him as I realize what else he said. "Next week?"

 

 

"Yeah- you'll need something *really* bloody elegant. I'm thinking something lined with diamonds or something. I bet you'd look gorgeous decked out in diamonds."

 

I take the three things from her and put them on the counter. "Ring it up," I tell the bitch. Note to self: come back and kill her. I will *not* tolerate that kind of attitude toward my Cordelia. And I made no special treatment for the desk clerk when I sliced his throat, I'll make no special treatment for this bint either.

 

 

"Spike?" I ignore the woman's roll of the eyes in reaction to his name and pull him away for a minute while she's ringing everything up. When we're far enough away that she's easier to ignore, I ask, "Why am I going to need diamonds?"

 

 

"Because you're you," I answer before kissing her cheek quickly.

 

I *know* I'm being patronizing. I give. "I'm going to Monte Carlo next Saturday for some gala or something- some high rollers type thing. I assumed you'd wanna accompany me- but if you don't-"

 

 

I grab him and kiss him, and yeah I can feel how hard he is. We'll do something about that *very* soon. I pull away after a few seconds and smile at him. "You assumed right. I would *love* to go with you."

 

 

"Well that's good since I already booked the tickets. You'll get to see the *other* half of immortal life," I tell her while resting my hand on her ass.

 

I walk back over the counter and throw some hundreds at the woman. I grab the bags and we head out. Of course now that I'm not by myself again, I'll need some employees.

 

"I think you'll need something a bit thinner for tomorrow night though, perhaps something sheer. I've still not decided. I thought I might leave it up to you," I tell her while pulling her hips against me.

 

I squeeze her ass and adjust my cock a bit. I need bigger jeans...

 

 

I notice him adjusting his jeans and smile at him. And he's going to hate - or love, if he enjoys getting even *more* turned on - our next stop. "We'll go to Christian Dior for the really fancy stuff... but they also have casual stuff too... so they'll do for pretty much everything else I need. Except--"

 

We stop in front of La Perla, an Italian lingerie store. I love this place, but I've *really* never had a reason to buy anything from here. Until now. And by the look on Spike's face, I think we're going to be spending a little more time in this store's dressing room.

 

We walk in and he pulls me back against him, grinding his cock against my ass. I moan softly and lean back to say, "So... see anything you like?"

 

 

"How about I kill the worker over there and you can try them *all* on?" I purr into her ear while grinding against her.

 

 

"Oh, she's not going to stop you from coming into the dressing room with me," I say. "If she does just growl at her and she'll go running." I walk over to one of the racks, which is kind of difficult since Spike is determined *not* to lose physical contact. But I know he's got to be hurting.

 

I pick out a few things, all very sheer and skimpy. He seems to approve, if the way he's nipping at my throat and grinding against me are any indication. "What color?" I ask as I pick out one more thing, a sheer lacy teddy, that has a V-... well, neck, except it dips all the way to the navel. "Black or red?"

 

 

"Black," I whisper and slide my hands up her waist to cup her tits. She's so beautiful... fuck, I'm *so* hard.

 

"I *need* to be in you, Luv. *Now*," I tell her.

 

 

I whimper and nod. "They've got some really nice dresses here, if you don't mind me grabbing a few? I promise I'll be fast."

 

 

I hang tightly to her waist, "Unacceptable, Pet. I *will* be inside you *now*," I inform her as I push her toward the dressing rooms.

 

 

Okay, I guess he really *is* in pain. Not that I don't want him too, so I don't argue. As we walk to the dressing room, he slides his hand down under my skirt and pushes *three* fingers inside me. I gasp and would have lost my ability to stand, but for the fact that his arm is around my waist. And "shit..." he feels so good and I didn't realize I was *that* ready for him.

 

I push open the nearest door and we stumble inside. I have enough time to throw the lingerie on the floor before he pins me to the wall. He kisses me and I unfasten his jeans quickly, pushing them down just enough. And his fingers are still inside me but I don't need any more preparation. "In me now," I whisper in his ear as I jump up and wrap my legs around his hips.

 

 

I thrust her into the wall and I'm completely inside her in a matter of a second- less even.

 

She flexes around me and I groan as I start to move my hips slowly- so slowly. I wanna torture her just a bit *too*.

 

 

I whimper and squeeze his cock, making him rub that wonderful spot inside me. "Spike..." I moan. "Fuckme."

 

 

"Fuck yourself," I groan, flipping us around so *I'm* leaning against the wall. "Let's see how strong you are, Pet. Make us come."

 

 

I brace my hands on his shoulders and raise myself, slowly, then drop back down onto him. He groans, and I do it again, except this time, I squeeze him on my way down. And shit that feels good to *me*, and by the way he's reacting I think it's good for him, too.

 

He keeps his hands on my ass, just in case I need help - but I don't. I was a cheerleader, and I still keep in shape. I speed up a little and he growls. I moan as the vibrations go through my body. I lean in to kiss him, and he thrusts his tongue inside my mouth as he responds, so passionately.

 

I love how hungry he is for me, all the time. And I love how he doesn't mind how hungry *I* am for him. I never found anyone who I could just be myself with, and not worry what he would think, until Spike.

 

He breaks away from the kiss and suckles one of my breasts. I bite my tongue to keep from screaming. He bites the nipple, hard, making me moan and get *so* much wetter. I move faster, trying to distract him from that little bit of information from my body, telling him that I like it when he bites--

 

Oh. Well... yeah. I do. And why shouldn't he know that? Now that he's made it clear he isn't going to drain me. We're... we're mates. And he likes having me around. So...

 

I just realized, too, he hasn't fed, yet. He has to be hungry. I should've realized when he made that crack about the salesgirl, but I just forgot. But I'm more than willing to let him take care of a little of that hunger, too. "Spike..." I lean down to whisper in his ear. "Are you hungry?"

 

 

Ohshit- I can't stifle *that* groan.

 

"Yesssssssss..." I hiss into her hair. I love smelling her hair- it's so bloody sweet- like all of her parts, really. "God yes," I repeat again while thrusting up into her. Shit. "Fuck, Cordelia..."

 

I need a pet name for her, I think, because in *these* times, she's not *just* Cordelia, she's "Goddess... *please*..."

 

 

I grin and turn my head to kiss him quick before saying, "Drink, then... I... I want you to."

 

 

Huh?

 

"What?"

 

 

Okay, don't pick NOW to be dense. I whimper and squeeze him again. I look him in the eyes and say, "If you want to... drink a little... from me... I ..." And I'm starting to tire so he'd better come soon and make *me* come, too. "You have to know, already, I... I like it when you... bite me. So ... if you want... I want."

 

 

Oh my god.

 

Bloody *HELL* yes!

 

I shift and she bares her neck to me. Shit, it's *so* beautiful. I inhale the scent deeply before flicking my tongue over her skin. "Do you *know* that I can taste your pleasure right here?" I ask her. "I can feel it pulsing underneath your skin... crying to me."

 

"Come with me, Cordelia," I purr before sinking my fangs into her flesh.

 

 

Oh GOD! I bite my lip, hard enough to make it bleed as I climax, the instant his fangs puncture my skin. I squeeze his cock, as hard as I can, and whimper when he spills his seed inside me. I wrap my arms around his neck and just hold on as I ride out my orgasm, shaking and convulsing around him.

 

He withdraws his fangs after a few seconds, and I'm almost sad about that. He licks at the wound for a little while, and I finally slump against him, resting my forehead on his shoulder, completely satisfied. I can't help laughing before I say, "I was planning on just sucking you off. But this was a *much* better plan."

 

 

"You could do that *too*, Luv. See how you taste on me," I say with a smirk.
