Dorian couldn't believe this was happening. He had to stop and think logically. The other wouldn't possibly kill him. What was he going to do then? It didn't make any sense, not when the other wanted him to clear his employee's name. He grunted and glared at him when he was spun around. His mind was in a whirlwind of disbelief. Kade hadn't budged in the slightest despite his efforts. He held Dorian flawlessly and without strain. All attempts at a comeback or argument were, however, silenced swiftly. He made a strangled sound when the other grabbed him by the throat.<br/><br/>God the other was truly insane. Garden? Who had he let free over a trampled<i>garden?! </i>Dorian's eyes filled with confusion when the other stepped in close. This couldn't be happening. It couldn't be real. What was going on? Yet none of those questions were uttered because of the hand choking him. It wasn't enough to make breathing impossible, but he couldn't get any words out. Dorian's body trembled, feeling his mouth at his neck. He didn't know what the other was going to do. Rape him? His stomach churned at the idea until he felt something sharp pierce his throat. It was quick, the pain, and the euphoria that followed has his knees giving out.<br/><br/>Yet Kade held him up and brought him close, like a lover. He had never felt anything like this. His head tilted to give the other more access, his heart beating in fear for his life but also in pleasure from whatever was pumped through his body. He knew what was happening to him, but he couldn't wrap his head around it. The speed in which he moved. His strength. And now his teeth were in his neck and he could recognize the unmistakable sucking sounds. Was he drinking his blood? Was he really a vampire? Dorian swallowed and closed his eyes. Maybe he was going to die. Maybe he'd just been toyed with and the other wouldn't show him any mercy. In all honesty Dorian didn't really deserve it. He hadn't given victims' families any reprieve from the nightmares they had endured. And now a victim was out seeking vengeance for his selfish greed.<br/><br/>Though it wasn't really selfish, at the end of things. Dorian hated the criminals just as much and hope they were all killed by other means and sent to whatever hell existed. He just hid his hatred well under his facade. Despite the success rate, crime had lessened considerably in San Diego because the criminals usually took a deal that sent them out of state. There were no cases of double jeopardy. That was the one thing he made sure of was that they didn't stay. If they did and committed another crime he refused to take them a second time. They had a choice, just as much as he'd had a choice. Though that choice was apparently biting him in the ass. His eyes fluttered closed and he groaned as the pleasurable sensation that was coursing through him. He was completely lax in Kade's arms. He didn't want this to stop, even if he died. It wasn't an unpleasant way to go.
