Chapter 10: Eavesdropping and Coming Plans

"He lied to you. I'm your friend. Remember when we used to play with your dolls. You were pink doll and I was green doll. Blaine told you that green doll hated pink doll, but when we started playing pink doll learned that green doll didn't hate him. That's what is happening right now. You need to understand that I don't hate you." Daniel whispered from the third floor - north wing playroom. The words easily transpired down the stairs, through the walls and into Blaine's second floor study in the southern wing.

The main attraction in the study was not the rich cherry oak furniture or the leather bound books from past centuries. Instead it was the blue and white glow originating from the wall size glass window. Through the glass window was a shallow meadow valley illuminated by the bright white moonlight. On the other side of the valley where the earth plateaued, was the border of a neighboring forest. From within the forest, a lone wolf howled his majesty and resumed his hunt for either food or a mate. When Blaine was younger he spent many nights prowling the forest in sport, or using it as animalistic playground to seduce pretty boys into his bed.

Vampires are well trained to see in the dark and the additional lights shining in the study were unnecessarily. It was only out of etiquette and efforts to keep matters civilized that the moon and brooding fire from the mantle brightened the area. Within the grand study and separated from Blaine's desk and work files, were three soft chairs organized in a triangle and occupied by three eavesdropping vampires.

"You two need to get better grips on your humans." Nick spoke as he physically groped his human. Jeff was straddling his vampire's lap with his bare chest touching Nick's clothed body. The human's face rested uncomfortably on his vampire's left should. Other than Jeff's familiar cream color cloth that he wore when Kurt was not around, the human was completely nude. From Jeff's current position, Blaine and Sebastian could not see anything private beneath the cloth. However if Jeff were to move his hips a fraction of an inch in any direction, then there would be little leftover for the human to hide. "If my Jeff planned such treason against me, then I would concoct a personal torture chamber and give him more than a thorough punishment." The pale blonde flinched at the promise. "It's simple. If Jeff wanted to run away, then I'd break his legs."

Sebastian remained, more or less, silent and posed. He knew Daniel's heart well. The boy was too emotional, sensitive and caring for his own good. He is an idealist who always follows his moral compass. As emotional humans tend to be, Daniel does not plan ahead. Nor does he anticipate possible obstacles or understand the actuality of how the world works. After all, the poor human still believes that if he does the right thing, then good will win. Sebastian would be lying if he said that he never pounded or manipulated certain knowledge into his human. Despite of all the sexual advancements the two men shared, Sebastian always ensured Daniel's heart and conscience kept whole. A whole heart doesn't only pump the delicious sympathetic blood he craves, but it also offers a faint shade of hope and resilience. It's this little edge of fight that makes Daniel extra fun in bed and a worthy pet.

Blaine has never shared Sebastian taste in the makings of a worthy companion and pet. The dark haired vampire and master of the Anderson Estate did not want a pet who continued to challenge him. He wanted the opposite, a simple pet that lived for his approval and trailed in his shadows. For a while Blaine had been under the impression that he would model his and Kurt's relationship after Nick and Jeff. Nick and Jeff had a traditional relationship. Nick feed and pleasured himself on his human and Jeff soundlessly went along with each command he was given. To keep matters at bay, Nick would occasionally spice Jeff's blood with fear with harsh threats and random punishments.

When Blaine decided to conceive Kurt he went to Nick first. On that night almost fifteen years ago, Blaine can still remember the way the shadows from the flames teased against Jeff's pale skin. That, in combination with the way tears rolled down the human's warm cheeks was almost too much for Blaine to bear. The image was perfect and beautiful. Among all the observations Blaine made that night, the clearest detail within his memory was the image of Jeff trembling naked on Nick's lap. Similar to how Blaine needs blood for to survive, he needed a scared, tearful and naked human fidgeting on top of him. Had Blaine been younger and careless, he probably would have lost controlled and fought Nick for a quick taste and feel from Jeff.

Blaine cannot remember when he changed his mind, yet nonetheless his taste in a worthy pet has developed. While he still wants Kurt to rest naked on his lap and to follow every order he is given, he also wants Kurt to stare and admire him as if he was the light in his eyes.

In comparison to other vampires, one could say that Blaine is 'nicer.' If Kurt did want he was asked and did not question his master's authority, then Blaine would not go out of his way to discipline his human. Blaine will, however, take all necessary evils to ensure that Kurt is completely and absolutely dependent on him. The vampire no longer wants to hear Kurt cry and panic from the fear of pain. He wants his human to become hysterical when he and Blaine are not in the same room or within eye sight of each other. As of now, pet and master are separated and Kurt is not upset. With that in mind, Kurt is not yet perfect.

"Nicholas, you mustn't forget who is in charge here." Blaine struggled to dismiss his friend. The steady drumming of his fingers against the arm rest was evidence that the host was restricting his natural urge to run upstairs, and mutter sweet and directing words into his precious human's ears. However, this was all a part of the plan. Ever since Kurt and Daniel formed their forbidden friendship Blaine knew he would have to take this great error, and turn it into a painful learning experience. Kurt needs to understand that only one person is truly his friend and honestly loves him - and that person is not Daniel. After this lesson Kurt would finally and wholeheartedly understand what Blaine has been trying to teach him all along. "Daniel may think he is planning a great escape, but we're the ones pulling the strings."

"We all knew this day was coming." Blaine paused. He hadn't eaten in a while and his fangs were starting to throb as a result. As if that was not enough, Kurt's intoxicating smell of virginity was becoming richer with each passing day. Making it harder and harder for the vampire to keep control. "I was originally planning to terminate Kurt and Daniel's friendship and cut Kurt's ties with you three prior to his sixteenth birthday - right before I claimed him." The host did not miss the way Jeff's back muscle tensed at the word 'claim.' Jeff used to be pretty enough to meet his standards for a bed companion. With time and Kurt's maturity, Jeff has lost his appeal to Blaine all together. The same can be said about Daniel. "Given recent events Sebastian has requested that we move the lesson sooner. After much thought, I've decided to agree with Sebastian's wish. The sooner Daniel's betrays Kurt, then the sooner the schoolboy crush will turn into schoolboy heartbreak." Blaine subtly fiddled with the small silver key to Kurt's chastity belt. The key was laced through a silver chain and fastened around his neck. "Besides, a year of just Kurt and I will allow me time to make necessary edits before I officially claim him on his sixteenth birthday."

Nick continued to stroke his cold fingers up and down Jeff's bare back. The tentative touches caused Sebastian to grind his teeth. He needed Daniel naked and on his lap immediately. The fact that he could still smell Daniel on his skin was enough to make Sebastian dizzy with lust.

"Trust me," Blaine continued, all the while trying to relax in his chair. The light reflecting off the moon beautifully emphasized the vampire's sharp teeth. "If Kurt is smart enough to avoid our trap, then he will be rewarded. If however, he allows himself to fall victim to this plan and he thinks he is truly running away from me, then he will be punished." Blaine paused. In all his planning he always assumed the best and expected Kurt to stay with him. If Kurt were to defy him, then the teenager would be more than punished. "If Kurt tries running away, then there will be consequences for his actions." Between Blaine's tapping and fidgeting fingers, Sebastian and Nick were having difficulty listening to their friend.

Nick smirked at the pleasing answer. "It is important that we never let our pets forget who the inferior species is. Blaine, do you ever intend to tell Kurt the story of how humans tried to eradicate us, but instead lost the war and became our lust and blood satisfying pets?" Between his words, Nick nibbled on Jeff's ears.

Sebastian tightened his fists. He should be caressing Daniel's bare body and licking his pet's ears.

"A history lesson is neither here or there. The rise of the vampires does not concern him. All Kurt needs to know is that I am his master and he is my pet. The fact that humans used to the dominate creature is insignificant."

"Blue doll is the master and pink doll is the pet." Blaine smirked and listened to his pet's reasoning. Kurt's mind was almost too easy to maneuver. Unfortunately for Blaine he was not the only one who had access to Kurt's thoughts - something that certainty would not last much longer. "Who is green doll? Why does pink doll need anyone else when he has blue doll?"

Blaine loved the sound the Kurt's voice. The sweet angelic voice was even more charming when it was reciting the vampire's own words. Judging by Kurt's volume and pronunciation the human was most likely lying on his back and trying to avoid conflict with his sitter.

His mother warned him that the chastity belt tended to be significantly heavier to the person wearing it. The intention behind the design was to prevent the wearer from being able to move from point A to point B, let alone search and find the key to his freedom.

"How about we return to the main conversation?" Sebastian narrowed his jealous eyes at Nick. The shorter vampire was starting to motivate Jeff to rock his hips into him. Nick used both his hands to prevent Blaine and Sebastian from seeing Jeff's private parts. "I don't know about you - Nick - but I want to teach Kurt his last lesson that requires Daniel and my assistance. I want to go home and fuck my pet on every square surface of my estate without stumbling over kid toys. Now, how about you release your human, allow Jeff to get dressed and do the assignment he was given. Our goal date for the 'runaway plan' is Kurt's fifteen birthday. Maybe if Jeff stops giving you a lap dance, then we could push the date even sooner."

Jeff embarrassingly closed his tear burning eyes and continued to painfully grind into his master. The pain and shame from following Nick's orders was better than the alternative - no food and rougher intimacy.

Similar to how Nick was fondling his human, Blaine continued to caress the key around his neck. "Nick, if you hope to be released from your responsibilities, then you best allow Jeff to play his role in matters to come."

Nick protectively wrapped his arms around Jeff's naked body and frowned at his host. "Why must Jeff get involved? Need I remind you that I volunteered my services to help raise Kurt? If I wanted to, I could leave right now."

"You could, but you won't." Blaine stated. "If you leave because you want to fuck Jeff, then you're leaving because of Jeff. In other words, you're allowing a human to make your decisions for you. Is that correct?" The host manipulated his words. Blaine was aware that his reasoning made little sense, but he also knew it was enough nonsense to motivate Nick to stay. "If the answer is no, then you will allow Jeff to go along with the plan. Besides, some action and fresh air will do his blood some good."

"Right," Nick sarcastically rolled his eyes. "You know everything about pets and that explains why Kurt is being such a darling right now and following your clear orders. Allow me to reiterate, Kurt and Daniel have too much freedom."

Blaine licked his tongue over his fangs. His body and teeth were hungry and aching for human blood and flesh.

When Kurt was younger Blaine would hire, manipulate or seduce strangers to his bed who would satisfy his basic survival and physical needs. However the older Kurt became, there were few boys who found their way into his bed, and their bodies offered less fulfillment then in the past. To this day, it has been six months since the dark haired vampire bedded a human for either blood or pleasure. The simple truth of his half year long abstinence was enough to humiliate the vampire to new bounds. Little did Sebastian or Nick know that he has been drinking deer blood, and his tense shoulders were, in part due, to his lack of physical intimacy. The rewards of claiming night could not come fast enough for the vampire. Blaine thirst and body only wanted one person, and that person still had some maturing to do.

"Green doll wasn't lonely, he wanted to help pink doll. There is a woman, her name is Elizabeth. Pink doll has never met her, but she loves him very much. Pink doll belongs with her and green doll wants to return pink doll to hismother."

Nick motioned Jeff to return to his previous position with his hips still and his head rested on the vampire's shoulders. "Damn Bas, your human doesn't know when to shut his mouth. He just said the 'M' word in front of sweet Kutie-Pie." Sebastian narrowed his emerald eyes again. The shorter vampire ignored his friend and resumed to irritate his host. "Blaine, why aren't you rushing upstairs and defining the word 'mother' as the feminine equivalent to master or something to that nature?"

Blaine forced Nick's taunting aside. He knows what he is doing. He has known all along.

Kurt is so close, yet so far away from being complete. So far the pale teenager is the physical embodiment of Blaine's greatest desire and want. Kurt has the breeder's smooth and flawless skin that is perfectly soft to the touch. His human is tall with a willowy body that fits wonderfully next to his master; and Kurt's facial features and crystal blue eyes are almost too innocent for Blaine to look at.

Physical matters aside Kurt's mental development still needs adjusting. Sure, the teenager is ignorant on most issues, but he lacks the level of dependence that Blaine craves. It was not enough for Blaine to have Kurt's dependence for food, shelter, safety and bedtime stories. Blaine wants something more. What that is, he doesn't fully understand.

"I'm going to allow Kurt to make his own decision. If he wants me to define the term 'mother' I will. Otherwise, it will be incorporated into his lesson. In either case, Kurt won't like the definition, nor will he want to go and search for her afterwards." Blaine stood up and walked to the study room door where a sting was hanging with a bell at the end. With a gentle tug Blaine signaled a housekeeper that he was ready for his meal. He was thirsty and he knew he would need to drink deer blood before he saw his pet again. "Everything," Blaine said mainly to comfort himself. "Everything will be okay. Kurt may get a little emotionally burnt in this plan, but it will bring him close to my perfection; and it will push all of you out of his life."

"The only reason Daniel wants to rescue Kurt is because I planted the idea in his head." Sebastian joined in to clarify his pet's actions. "I know what kind of person Daniel is. I told him that Blaine is mad at Kurt, and that Blaine intends to claim Kurt on his fifteen birthday. Spare Kurt isn't killed in the process. While I was talking I could practically see the wheeling in Daniel's brain starting to roll. Daniel isn't going against me. He is following my hints and my orders." The tallest vampire smirked. "Having said that, don't worry, once this is all said and done. Daniel will be punished for believing that he tried to defy me."

Almost as if someone was waiting for Blaine to request his dinner a nameless female maid in a simple black dress rushed to the study with a skull filled with blood. The girl did not look her employer in the eye nor did she stay and offer her assistance. The unimportant girl knew better than to speak without permission or stay unneeded.

"Fine," Nick frowned. He did not want to get Jeff involved, but at least once the lesson was over he would be free to leave without ridicule. "Repeat the plan to me?"

"Go away!" Kurt screamed from the playroom. "You're going to leave me!"

Jeff jumped when he heard Kurt's little outburst. Nick laughed and patted Jeff's back. "I don't remember the entire plan, but doesn't Kurt need to get along with Daniel for it to happen?"

The cool skull in Blaine's hand and the aroma of blood calmed the host's demeanor. Of course, cold deer blood is a far cry from warm human blood. However, it was the only blood available that was both remotely appealing and mature enough to drink. Before speaking Blaine took a sip. The first drink of the thick liquid always disagreed with his taste buds. Normally it was not until the goblet was half empty before Blaine was able to pretend he was drinking something better.

"Just let me show you something. It won't hurt you. Afterwards I'll return you to your play mat unharmed." Daniel whispered in vain. The words were perfectly clear to the vampires.

Blaine returned to his seat. "The plan, Nicholas's, and you best pay attention this time, is rather simple. Daniel is going to 'rescue' Kurt in the belief that it is his idea, and that he is doing the right thing. At the same time Kurt, in his all too gullible state of mind, will be easily tricked into going along with the plan. However, in order for the humans to 'escape' Jeff is going to offer his assistance."

"Kurt, have you ever wondered what's on the other side of this curtain?"

Unlike Nick, Jeff paid better attention in these little meetings. He already knew what the plan was and what his responsibilities included. It was one thing to be degraded in skimpy clothes for a lustful vampire. It was an entirely different form of abuse to assist in such cruel scheming. Jeff did not like or approve of the deception he was expected to contribute. Although what other plausible option did he have?

"Jeff's role in the plan," Blaine frowned as he took another sip. The quality of the deer blood seemed to be getting worse instead of better.

The vampire knew he would not claim Kurt until the human turned sixteen. However an idea was stirring.

There are two components a vampire must do in order to properly claim a human. The first being sex. The second and more critical component is the exchange of blood from the vampire to the human. Without the combination of these two things a vampire is perfectly capable of drinking human's blood without committing a formal claim on a given human.

Blaine struggled to swallow another drink of the bitter and sour liquid.

Kurt is getting older, what is wrong with him enjoying unclaimed virgin blood in the meantime? Maybe fifteen would be a good age for Kurt to begin sharing his blood with his master. If Blaine's plan goes accordingly, then Kurt would be more than willing to share his blood. In fact, Kurt would probably never allow Blaine to leave his sight.

"Jeff's role is to bridge the gap of what we have and what Daniel will need. In doing so, the humans will trust Jeff and allow him to 'escape' with them. Once the human's plan is broken into a million pieces," Blaine pointed towards Nick, "You will take Jeff and leave my property. I will later tell Kurt that you replaced Jeff with a new and better pet. This will teach Kurt that vampires do in fact replace their naughty pets." In truth, this statement was a bluff.

Nick nodded his head in understanding. The plan did not sound too bad. "How far will the humans go before I get my Jeff back? What is Daniel's part in this controlled escape?"

"Do you ever pay attention?" Sebastian growled. Nick and Jeff's public displays were pushing him over the edge. He desperately needed his human.

"Daniel! Look! It's so pretty!"

"Shh-shh,"

"Look it's a big bathtub. I want to go in there. Let's go and find Blaine and see if we can go down there."

The Nick and Sebastian laughed at Kurt's poor understanding. The outdoors would be a rude awaking for the simple minded teenager. He would never want to go back outside or be tempted look behind curtains again.

The reference of the outdoors motivated Blaine to leave his seat and stand next out the large window. Blue-white moon light emphasized the vampire's dark features and serious expression. Sebastian and Nick did not say anything as Blaine's bright hazel eyes silently surveyed the plants and wild life in the neighboring valley. Down below Blaine could see a tiny white rabbit snooping behind a small boulder. The memory of the hunting wolf left the vampire wondering if the helpless creature would soon be someone else's dinner.

Still thirsty Blaine took another sip of deer blood. Again the drink did not settle well with him. Something would have to change with his future meals.

"I've warned Kurt time and time again. Daniel will abandon him. Once Daniel does, then Kurt will understand that I told him the truth: I'm the only person he can trust. At the point all four of you," Blaine referred to his three listens plus Daniel. "Will be dismissed from your duties, and you will leave my property. From then on Kurt will only have me, and he wouldn't want it any other way. He will despise Daniel and love me."

"No Kurt, you can't tell Blaine about this. Do you believe me? Blaine has kept so much from you. Why wouldn't he want you to see all the beauty out there? I want to save you and return you to your mother. Will you let me?"

Too disgusted with the content in his goblet, Blaine lowered the drink from his blood stained lips. He was tired of planning and organizing. He was ready for actions, and more importantly, he was ready for his rewards.

"I believe that was my cue to get Kurt." Blaine had not forgotten Nick's warning that depriving Kurt from using a toilet could cause the teenager to develop a bladder infection. "I'm going to go and check on Kurt." Blaine then added, "Sebastian, why don't you go and... evaluate your human. Go see what he is thinking."

Blaine did not care how Sebastian interpreted the word 'evaluated.' He only wanted to touch and hold his pet.

...

"I'm sorry Sebastian and Daniel wouldn't let you us the toilet," Blaine rubbed small circles on Kurt's lower back while the teenager relieved himself. The human's hair was shuffled and messy from squirming back and forth on the playroom rug. "I gave them keys so they could help you with your human needs. They probably didn't help you because they both hate you." The older man casually whispered the lie into his pet's ear. There was only one key to Kurt's chastity belt and that key was safety with him.

Kurt was too busy relieving himself to fully listen to his vampire. Sebastian tricked him into drinking multiple glasses of lemonade and did not warn him that all the liquid would make him need to urinate. The moment Blaine undid his pants and unlocked the belt around him Kurt didn't waste time. The teenager has never demonstrated to have a shy bladder in front of Blaine, but even if he did, today would have been the exception.

"My poor boy," Blaine sympathetically kissed the back of his pet's neck. There was absolutely nothing odd about his behaviors, or at least Kurt was not able to recognize anything as strange. "Too bad I didn't get here a little sooner. Your pants are a little spotty."

"Blaine," Kurt finished. "I didn't mean to make a mess. I tried really hard to hold it, but I got excited."

"It's okay. I'll help you change into something clean and dry." To finish his statement Blaine resecured the belt around the teenager. Thanks to better timing and the chance to calm down, Blaine was able to admire the craftsmanship on the belt made just for Kurt. In the center of the metal device was the Anderson family crest: a large 'A' with a snake slithering up the letter. On the side of the belt were untouched flowers. Blaine rested his hand on top of the letter 'A' and reminded himself that beneath the belt was a hairless body halfway through puberty and almost a full adult. "What got you so excited?"

Kurt leaned his weight against Blaine's shoulders and stepped out of his wet pants. "I...I..." Similar to a fish out of water, Kurt struggled over what to say. "Blaine, I'm confused." The vampire tossed the wet pants aside and straightened his posture. "What does the good pet do when... one person...," Kurt was about to say 'master' but cleverly replaced the word. He did not want to appear too obvious and replacing 'master' with 'person' seemed like a stealthy idea. Of course, the disguise was as clear as the whispers were loud in the study room. "What does the good pet do when one person tells him to do one thing, but another...person tells pet to do the opposite thing? The good pet is supposed to follow orders, but how can he follow opposite orders at the same time? What is he supposed to do?"

"Hmm, that's a good question. Could you give me an example?" Blaine pretended that he fell prey to Kurt's poor attempt of deception. "Please lift your arms up."

Without question Kurt raised his arms and allowed Blaine to undress him of his shirt. The shirt was perfectly clean and there was not a real need to remove the clothing.

Unfazed by his near state of nudity and comforted by the fact that the belt would not allow his body to betray him, Kurt was able to concentrate on his story. Unfortunately the human is a poor liar and an even worse storyteller.

"An example...?" Acting if he was five years old again and denying himself to be the bedtime cookie thief, the teenager pressed his chin to his chest. "What if...one person told good pet that there is...something bad behind a...blanket?" Kurt's weakening shrewdness replaced the word 'curtain' for 'blanket.' They are after all, two entirely different things. "But someone else told the good pet that there is something good behind the blanket. Then he showed the good pet what was on the other side of the... blanket. Who is right? Or can something be good and bad? Whatever it was, it was pretty."

The teenager weighed his confusing words before meeting the vampire's eyes.

"Oh that's not a tough question," Blaine praised Kurt's question as uncomplicated. "It's much simpler than that. Everything is either good or bad. Something cannot be both. In your story, only one person is telling the truth and the other person is telling a lie. If the good pet listens to the liar then he is now a bad pet." Kurt's eyes widen with obvious concern. "Come," Blaine grabbed Kurt's hand. The soft skin contrasted wonderfully against Blaine's callous fingers. "We need to go back to your room to get you new clothes to wear."

"Blaine," Kurt pulled his hand out of Blaine's grip. The vampire loosened his hold on the hand to give Kurt the false impression that the two men were of equal strength. "I'm not wearing any clothes."

The vampire genuinely smiled. Kurt was not embarrassed to be naked in front of him, but he did not want anyone else to see him nude. What a good pet.

"It's okay, pet. Your bedroom isn't far away, and no one is over here. They won't see you. Have I ever lied to you before?" Instead of answering the question Kurt accepted Blaine's hand again. "Good boy, good pets can recognize who is telling them the truth. If anyone disagrees with me, then they are not telling you the truth."

The two men left the restroom and journeyed towards the bedroom. Kurt clung to the vampire for support and security, and Blaine kept a strong hold around Kurt's waist. It was a strange feeling for Kurt to be nude in a public place. The way the cool air touched his sensitive skin reminded him of forbidden and naughty feelings.

"Blaine...you said you don't lie. So if...someone were to call you a liar." Kurt unnecessarily preserved Daniel's name. "Are you telling me that that person lied to me?" The teenager gasped at the idea.

Blaine remembered hearing Sebastian's pet refer to him as a liar. The carelessly pet was in for a world of future hurt. Based on Sebastian's eagerness to see Daniel again, the human was probably currently naked the waist down and pressed against a brick wall. As far as Blaine cared, he hoped Sebastian was being extra rough.

"Yes, Daniel is a bad pet who hates you. Don't let him fool or hurt you. Give him the chance and he will hurt you."

The conversation came to a halt once they arrived to the bedroom. True to Blaine's word they did not walk passed anyone else. Once inside the vampire sat his pet on the bed and went to the wardrobe for a new matching outfit. Moments later he came back with a pair of shorts and a plain white shirt.

"Sweetie, I need you to lie down so I can dress you."

Similar a toddler needing to get dressed, Kurt laid his back against the bed and his legs dangled down the side. "Do good pets keep secrets from their master?"

"Do good pets keep secrets from their master?" Blaine repeated the question and sat the clothing on the bed, yet he remained standing up. His eyes were becoming more and more skilled in separating the child and adult-like features in his human. It was the adult characteristics in Kurt that motivated Blaine to keep talking. "A good master or even a good friend would never ask the good pet to keep a secret. Secrets can take the good pet and turn him into something bad. The longer the pet hold onto a secret, then the worst off he will be. Secrets can make nasty pet's teeth and hair to fall out."

Without further words or motivation, Blaine resumed his uncharacteristic role as the ignorant master. However, the vampire did delay himself from dressing his human. Kurt was too pretty to cover up right away, and then there was the matter of the oh-so-sweet-blood pumping in the fragile body. The wonderfully rich and delicious flavor generously scented the room and silk bed sheets. Blaine wasn't ready to mask scent with clothes just yet.

From his vantage point, Blaine was able to see the beating pulse on the teenager's neck.

"Why do you ask?" The vampire attentively lowered his cold fingers and rested them on top of Kurt's pulse. The proof of life below Blaine's fingers represented all his wants and the blood that was specially designed to meet his cravings and fulfil all his nutritional needs. The cold deer blood would be nothing in comparison to the rich warm and virgin blood before him. "These are very serious questions for such a good pet to be asking."

Kurt shivered at the simple, yet non-invasive touch against his skin.

The unintentional quiver yet again forced Blaine to resist his natural urge to take the teenager. He would drink from Kurt when the time was right. His fangs would have to keep throbbing until then, having said that the vampire did not remove his lingering finger tips off of Kurt's neck.

Without complete understanding or respect to Daniel's wish, Kurt spoke. "Somebody told me a secret. He said not to tell anyone." Kurt unknowingly stated public knowledge. "I should probably tell you what he told...and what he showed me..."

Blaine said nothing and his cold finger tips continued to tease his pet's warm neck.

"Do you remember the example I just told you? I told you a story where two people were saying opposite things, and then one person revealed something behind a blanket?" Kurt hesitantly asked. Blaine nodded his head with the memory. "You and Daniel are those people, and it wasn't a blanket it was a curtain." The teenager confessed his simple lie. Kurt's wide eyes proved that he believed his statement to be absolutely deceiving. "On the other side of the curtain there was something amazing! I can't even describe it!" Kurt sat up from the bed and joyfully screamed. "Daniel told me not to ask you, but Blaine I really want to go out there! Will you let me?"

"Shh-shh," Blaine whispered in efforts to calm his pet. "Lay back down." Kurt immediately followed the order. Indeed, what a good pet, Blaine thought to himself. "This place Daniel showed you. Was their light and colors on the... ceiling? Did you wonder how they were staying up there? Was the floor rough and uneven?"

Kurt did not see the connection his master was about to make. "Yes."

"Did you see a..." Blaine remembered the exact words Kurt said in the playroom. "Did you see a big bathtub?"

"Yes!" Kurt smiled like a child. "It was a big bathtub. Can I bath in there next time?"

"Sweetie, when you take a bath. Where do you think the water goes when it leaves the tub? It goes to the place where all lost things go." Kurt raised his eyebrows and Blaine smirked. "What you saw was all your old bath water. Yesterday before bedtime, I told you about the planet - the place were all lost and abandoned pets... or unwanted things go." Kurt turned white at the memory and piece by piece his understanding came together. "Daniel showed you the planet. He hates you. He wants to take you out there and then lose you. If that happens than you will be all alone and with nowhere to go and no one to help you."

Confused and scared, Kurt shuttered at the memory and looked away from his master.

"Nothing," Blaine gently gripped his pets chin and restored eye contact with Kurt. "Nothing good can come from out there. I want you to understand that. I don't know what Daniel has planned, but I hope you're smart enough to make the right decision. I would hate for you to run into... Elizabeth." Blaine hated to mention the name, but it was easier to say when he intended to smear the word.

The sweet and gentle name caught Kurt by surprise. He forgot all about the mysterious name that Daniel referred to earlier. The teenager would have confused that secret also, but there were too many secrets for him to keep track of right now.

"Is she..." Something told Kurt not to say her name. "Is she nice? Daniel told me that I'm supposed to be with her...."

The vampire never cared to learn the woman's personality. Do breeders even have feelings? None of that mattered. All that mattered what that Kurt didn't like her.

"She is a very nasty and mean woman." The image of the witch Santana entered Blaine's memory. "She is a tall foul temper woman with long black hair. She likes to wear tight and revealing clothing with sapphire diamond earrings. She is a witch who practices dark magic." The pulse on Kurt's neck speed up with the story Blaine was telling him. "She prefers to play with girls over boys. Did Daniel tell you know what she does to the little boys she catches?" Kurt shook his head a negative. "When she catches boys, good little pets just like you." Blaine pointed at Kurt. "She casts a wicked spell and turns her prey into a white rabbit. After that, she feeds the boy to a wolf."

Terrified and virgin blood temporary robbed Blaine of his words.

"Oh sweetie, don't cry. You're safe here." Blaine sat on the side of the bed and lifted his pet onto his lap. "Just stay with me and you can avoid all these bad things. Stay with me and you'll be reward."

The vampire has yet to kiss Kurt on his lips, but he sees nothing wrong with kissing the tears off of his teenager's warm cheeks. Tear by tear, Blaine kissed away all of Kurt's superficial worries and fears.

...

"Shh-shh," Sebastian growled and pushed himself further into his pet. After Nick and Jeff's public display of affection, Sebastian did not waste time finding, isolating, and stripping Daniel. With Daniel still partly dressed and setting on a billiard table Sebastian ravaged himself deep into his pet. "We'll be going home soon. Once we do, then you can scream as loud as you want." The vampire push Daniel's back against the table and lifted the human's hips to a more satisfying position.

The sound of table legs scratching against the marble floor did not yield or relax the vampire's energy or desire. For too long Sebastian has wanted to consummate his and Daniel's relationship in the dark and cigar smelling gentlemen's room. Whenever he would lean against the table and take his turn in a game of pool, he always wished he was scoring into Daniel. Next time he plays with the boys, he would have to tell about his latest win.

Daniel bit his tongue and tried to force his body to stretch wider for his master. As far as he knows Sebastian did not hear him talking to Kurt earlier.

"We're definitely going home soon." Sebastian grunted. His hands were firmly planted against Daniel's waist, preventing the boy from rebounding away with his harsh and deep thrusts. "Blaine is still beyond pissed at his pet. While you were playing babysitter, Blaine was asking Nick and I if it was wrong of him to claim Kurt earlier than fifteen. Nick and I don't give a damn about Kurt. We only want to go home. We told Blaine to take risk and claim the minor. It's not like anyone would enforce the law on him."

The brunette was only able to concentrate on a fraction of what Sebastian was saying. Sebastian was not kissing or sucking his lips or neck like he normally did when he was pleasuring himself. The greater distance between the Sebastian's lips and Daniel's ears made it harder for the pet to listen.

"We told him that a minor can be killed in the claiming process." Unrelenting thrusting persisted. "Blaine is too angry... to make a reasonable decision... right now." Additional grunts and heavy pants drowned Sebastian's dialogue. "Blaine decided... that he'll take his chances... and claim Kurt sooner, than wait...."

The tall vampire continued to chronically lie. The goal date for the 'escape' was Kurt's fifteen birthday. However, nothing in the rules said he could not speed up the process. Speaking of speeding up...

"Bas!" Daniel tried to roll from his master, but the movement was restricted. "Slow down!"

Daniel could barely focus against the vampire's strength.

"There is nothing you can do...." Sebastian challenged his stubborn pet. "I can take and... fuck you as much... and as rough... as I want, and you have to take it. You have no power in saving Kurt.... How in the world could you save him from this lifestyle when you're always on your knees for me... or filled with me?"

The vampire removed his hands off of Daniel's hips and lifted the human's legs higher. If Daniel's upper back and head weren't resting against the table, then the human would have been lifted upside down.

Sebastian looked down at his pet and smelled the sweet sympathy radiating off his human.

"Daniel, look at me...." The vampire huffed. His unforgiving thrusts had yet to slow down. "I wonder if Kurt will survive when Blaine takes him in this position.... I don't think he will last two minutes like this. What do you think?"

Sebastian's infamous smirk crept onto his face when he noticed something new in his pet's eyes. Daniel plan to 'escape' had just advanced.
