Asher awoke from his coffin, entering the bedroom he'd had when last he'd lived at the Maddox family's San Diego Estate to find Devil was curled up on the bed, his golden hair shining in the moonlight. He leaned down, kissing him gently before exiting the room in search of no doubt his once pomme. After he'd fed, he went straight to Sebastian's bedroom entering quietly to find the pale blonde awake, sitting against a mound of pillows and an IV in his arm.
Asher was a little stunned to see how frail his friend appeared, having lost a great deal of weight, his once beautifully tanned skin pale with illness. "I wondered how long it would take you to come." Sebastian sighed heavily.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Asher went and sat beside him on the bed.
"I did not want you to make this offer under duress." Sebastian coughed up blood.
"I would have offered anyway, I did offer but you did not wish to do so because the Council threatened us." the golden blonde cupped his cheek.
"Do not make this offer because you feel indebted, Asher."
"I do not feel indebted, I would not do this to repay the debt I owe. You are my friend and Zoe needs you."
"I will not be a wedge between you and your kitten. I have already made arrangements for Zoe."
"Quit stalling Sebastian, you know you are going to say yes. Now your excuses sound like mine." the golden blonde chuckled.
"First two tonight, I don't think I'd have the energy for more." Sebastian sighed.
Asher reached out, caressed his face his golden eyes glowed with power reaching out to Sebastian's sealing the first mark before he leaned in kissing him tenderly pushing more of his power between them to seal the second mark. Asher parted first looking at his friend with concern. "I'm alright Asher, tired but I feel better."
"Well enough for the last two?" the golden blonde asked.
"Not by ourselves, we talked about this last time you made this offer." Sebastian raised his hands, cupping Asher's face, pushing back his hair, "I already feel your power reaching for my other nature. If we did this without a third party we could hurt each other." Sebastian laid his forehead against Asher's.
"I could call Holly and Ricardo" they heard, looking up to see Arianna in the doorway.
"You would be enough, fetch Devil and Sawyer, the three of you should be enough." Asher shook his head.
"You are playing with fire,Tovarish."
"I don't mind the burn." Asher chuckled.
They heard two more sets of footfalls signaling the arrival of the Devil and Sawyer. Sebastian waved them in, patting the bed allowing them to sit. "Arianna said you needed our help." Devil sounded concerned.
"We need a safety net." Sebastian coughed hard, flecks of blood covered his hand, "it's not so bad now." he commented.
"Why do you need a safety net? I've never heard of a situation needing a safety net to create a servant-master bond." Sawyer asked.
"I'm part incubus, Asher come from a bloodline of vampires who's powers simulate the incubi." Sebastian explained, "My power runs through my blood, it could cause a power surge between us that could do harm to one or both of us. I've never heard of a case like this before, I'd rather be safe than sorry."
"You're powers have collided before," Devil looked surprised, "haven't they?"
"They have" Asher nodded.
"What happened?"
"We fed on each other, blood and magic. Needless to say we haven't done it since."
"So what can we expect?" Sawyer asked.
"To bind me as his servant, both our powers will have to connect. We know how to avoid the mess we made last time but if it gets out of control we have to be separated. Arianna will know."
Asher leaned in closer, inhaling his former lover's scent, laying a gently kiss on his throat. Sebastian breathed slowly, wincing as he felt the golden blonde's fangs pierce the skin, feeding only a little but enough that their powers flared. The three watched as Asher's eyes bled to crystal blue fire as Sebastian's mint green eyes turn golden, feeling a flood of power pour through the room. The golden blonde pulled away, running his tongue over the wound to seal it before sinking his fangs into his own wrist holding it up to Sebastian who drank willing as he recited the words that would bind them.
"Holy shit" Sawyer sounded shocked.
"That's one way of putting it." the hunter chuckled, coughing up, "I'm okay, a week or two and I'll be ship shape."
"I've never felt anything like that." Devil sat watching.
"It is the raw form of a true incubus' greatest power." Sebastian started itching at the needle in his arm.
"Leave it alone" Asher chastised, "our power may purge this cancer but the medicine will help you recover faster without burning so much of our power."
"I don't need it." Sebastian continued to itch, until they smelled blood, Asher grabbing his hand, "Oops"
"Did you forget about your claws?"
"Either remove the needle or bind my hands. I hate the feel after a feed, all the ultra sensitivity."
"Not without the good doctor's permission" Asher took a gauze wrap to cover the wound, using the rest to bind Sebastian's hands.
"Did someone call a doctor?" an older woman stood in the doorway.
"Dr. Benita, thank the gods, please tell them the needle can come out." Sebastian whined.
"You look to be making the miraculous Ricardo spoke of." she approached the bed, Asher moving away to give her room.
"They've raised quite a bit of power, Sebastian's powers make him extremely sensitive to touch. The needle is causing serious itch, he nearly ripped the skin off his arm if Asher hadn't stopped him." Arianna spoke.
"I see that." the older woman removed the bandage, the wound already beginning to heal rapidly, "I want to be sure this plan of his has really worked."
"If I promise to spend the next two days in bed and let you monitor my every move can I please take it out?" the pale blonde groaned.
"Three days and you do exactly as I say when I say, no fuss." the doctor countered.
Sebastian whined, "Fine, just take it out."
Dr. Benita removed the IV needle noticing the visible change in her patient from having seen him that morning. He had regained quite a bit of color and had the energy to act like the whiny child she'd always encountered him as. "Now, regardless of all the power or magic or whatever you all did, he needs to rest so out." the older woman shooed them out.
"Doc" Sebastian went to protest.
"Don't you 'doc' me, get some rest. No doubt that niece of yours will be thrilled to see you getting better after the scare you've given everyone."
Asher led Devil back to their room, walking out onto the balcony. The golden tiger stopped at the bed, watching him carefully. "Are you upset with me Devil?" Asher inquired softly.
"Why would I be upset with you?" Devil looked surprised.
"He and I have history." the blonde vampire replied.
"You saved his life, it's not like you had sex with him." the tiger approached.
"And if that had been necessary, to seal our bond, would you be angry with me?" Asher sighed.
"That depends" Devil wrapped his arms around him.
"On"
"Do I get to join in?" the tiger pulled back golden curls to kiss his fiancee's jaw.
"I’m most certain that could've been arranged." Asher chuckled
"Then no, I would not have been upset."
"He is getting better, will be going home with us at the end of the week and everything will be fine."
"You are saying this to make me feel better aren't you?"
"Is it working?"
"A little"
"Then yes"
