Why this must be read:
Warning - dark fic: slavery, non-con, D/s, hurt/comfort, torture, bondage. Xander is captured by demons and spends six months being brutally trained to be a slave. Spike finds the seemingly broken man at an auction and buys him. Outwardly Xander gives every appearance of being broken, but his inner babbling shows that his spirit is still alive. Slowly Spike helps Xander realize he is not as broken as everyone, including himself, thinks. A well written fic that manages to keep both Xander and Spike in character as they try to deal with the new master/slave dynamic. Bonus: some amazing art work by Velvet Virago that is not work safe at all!
Instead Spike just stormed away without even a touch on Xander's shoulder or picking up the leash, leaving Xander motionless on the floor waiting. Xander could hear his trainer clucking disapprovingly, and he panicked that he had missed a command, but he couldn't remember a tap or a command to heel, so he stayed in place, quietly dying. That and quietly killing Spike for leaving him behind in this place with this demon. And quietly hoping that Spike would come back for him, and when he reached a point that he found himself praying for fangless to come get him, he knew that his suspicion about being broken was more fact that suspicion, but he couldn't really change that now.
