The figure pulled back his hood to reveal a mop of shaggy hair and an unshaven face. He was human and nothing more... and yet he had dominated the demon entirely. There was an air of power about him that was unmistakable. She stood staring straight ahead with a completely docile expression.<br/><br/>The figure paced around her, his eyes combing hungrily over her naked form. His fingers explored at will, touching her here and there, stroking and caressing as an artist might stroke a just-completed statue. He gave a dark, throaty chuckle when she gave no reaction. Leaning forward, he pressed his lips to her neck, then traced a line of hungry kisses down the line of her throat. He reached up with a hand to clasp a fist in her hair. Using his hold, he jerked on her hair to force her to tilt her head back. She gave no response still, standing still to allow him to continue.<br/><br/>He ignored the slayer completely when he rose, the threat falling on deaf ears. After a moment, he purred to the demon, "You were going to leave me, my love... I cannot allow that. I will have you. You..." he growled, clamping his free hand around her throat tightly, "You<span style="font-style: italic">belong to me!!!</span>IF YOU EVER TRY ANYTHING LIKE THIS AGAIN... I WILL END YOU!!!"<br/><br/>He released her, becoming perfectly calm once again, and she bowed, "Master."<br/><br/>"Now go and clean up your mess. You've wasted your chance to finish him. Finish it now and we can be on our way. I can't have you hungry for what I've planned. Go on."<br/><br/>He indicated the slayer and she fixed her empty gaze on him. Stepping forward, she nodded then suddenly leaped at him with a snarl, hands outstretched for the kill.
