Xander's Flat
About an Hour after the last chapter

The ride back to my place seemed to take forever, even though it was only about an hour, with all the sexual tension between Cordy and I, as well as between Cordy and my other three girls. I'm still surprised that we managed to all stay dressed while riding in the limo I'd hired for the trip. Cordy and I sat on one row of seats facing the others, and Harmony, Parvati and Tara sitting across from us. We spent the time with Cordy getting to know Parvati and Tara, and letting them get to know her.

I found it interesting that the other three automatically showed submission to Cordy, but I couldn't tell if she picked up on it or not. I suspect she did, based on some of the stories that Harmony had told us, but Cordy didn't act particularly dominant while we were in the car.

I also picked up on a couple of subtle hints that I probably would have missed if it weren't for Mike's memories, that Cordy would be willing to submit to me, especially the slight flush on her cheeks and the whiff or arousal I caught when Harmony was talking about our first time together. Very interesting...

I also knew that Cordy was more than ready to get naked with me, by the way her hand stayed in my lap, lightly stroking me through my pants. Needless to say Mister Happy was standing at attention the entire way home, and I couldn't wait to get her behind closed doors.

Eventually we got home, and, as soon as the doors closed behind us, my three submissives immediately stripped out of their clothing, leaving them stark naked in front of us. Cordy looked at me in surprise, but before she could say anything, I did what I had been wanting to do since our eyes first met in the Arrival Lounge. I pulled Cordy into my arms and started kissing her, putting everything I'd been feeling about her into it, until she melted against me, and allowed my tongue access to her mouth.

While we were kissing, and the three girls were watching quietly, I started to undress her, and wasn't surprised that to find her hands helping me as her jacket and blouse soon ended up on the floor, soon joined by her bra, letting me see those fabulous breasts that I had enjoyed so much in High School!

I moved my mouth down to suck on her nipples, making her gasp in pleasure, while my hands were working on the button of her skirt, which puddled around her legs, leaving her standing there in nothing but her soaking wet silk panties. Tugging on the ribbons holding her panties up, they quickly fell apart dropping to the floor and I slipped a finger inside her. It was obvious that she was on the verge of cumming, so I added two more fingers and pumped quickly, using my thumb to brush across her nub, and that was all she wrote!

Cordy moaned out my name as she collapsed against me, shaking as she rode out the climax. I had seen her in this state quite a few times when we were dating, and knew she was off to her happy place, and I smiled to myself. She was always a beautiful woman, but every woman is even more beautiful when in the middle of a massive orgasm!

By the time she had recovered, I had maneuvered her over to the couch and gotten her sat down. When her eyes cleared and she smiled up at me, she started to reach for my pants. I gently gripped her hands and said, "There will be time for that later, right now, it's all about you, and welcoming you to the family." She raised an eyebrow at me, only to grin when I stepped back and said, "Tara, Parvati, why don't you show Cordelia just how happy you are that she is with us?"

The two of them smiled happily and soon they were sitting on either side of her, each of them had one of her breasts in their mouth and their hands were fingering her again, driving Cordy out of her mind with pleasure.

While they were doing that, I pulled Harmony to me, and kissed her just as passionately, before I whispered "Thank you for bringing us back together. I think you deserve a special reward for that!'

Before she could even ask, I had Harmony on her back on the carpet, and I was stripping out of my clothes, leaving them in a pile next to us. Laying over her, I kissed Harmony again, before moving down her body. I toyed with the rings in her nipples for a bit, enjoying the way she squirmed under me, before I moved on, kissing down her belly until I got to her soaking core. I could hear the confusion in her voice, when she said, "Master?" because I had never gone down on her before.

"Hush, Harmony, I told you that you deserve a special reward, so lay back and enjoy it!"

I heard two gasps of surprise from the couch as my mouth touched Harmony's shaved pussy. Sliding my tongue out, I licked along her lips, making them swell even more, and tasted her juices for the first time. Harmony wriggled under me, moaning happily as I slipped my tongue inside her and started reciting the alphabet as I licked her.

It was very rare that I gave oral to my girls, at least since Mike's memories showed up after graduation. Only when they had done something that had pleased me greatly. It was a not very subtle way to demonstrate my dominance, and they all seemed to understand that. I had gone down on Tara a couple of times when we were together, once when she had managed to get Sylvia Saint, who was taking a break from movies and doing the club circuit to join us for a night of craziness, and another night when the two of us went to a bar and she picked up the female singer from the band. Those were special occasions though, and Tara knew it, which made her enjoy them all the more.

I still knew what to do, after all, I'd gotten plenty of practice pleasuring Cordy when we were dating, and my night with Buffy, so I had no problems driving Harmony up the wall, and, by the time I locked my lips around her clit and sucked gently while I slipped the tip of my finger into her ass, she lost her mind with the way she came!

Hearing moans from the couch, I looked over, and saw that Parvati was kneeling between Cordy's legs, licking her eagerly, while Cordy had her mouth on Tara's pussy, and, from Tara's moans, doing an amazing job!

Looking back at Harmony, she was staring at me with naked need on her face, and I moved back up her body, before putting my cock right at her entrance. She spread her legs even wider, and I slid inside, drawing another moan of pleasure from her throat, before she started kissing me, tasting her juices on my lips and tongue.

We had been together often enough that it didn't take any time before we fell into a rhythm, and she was soon cumming again. I held off long enough to let her enjoy the feelings, before I grunted out her name and let loose, flooding her pussy with my cum, which pushed her over into another orgasm. I rolled us over onto our sides and held her as she came back down from her peak, stroking her body and kissing her softly until she came back to herself.

When Harmony's eyes were clear again, she looked up at me with a wide smile, and said, "Wow! If that's your idea of a reward for going above and beyond, I can see wanting to be a very good girl!"

I chuckled and said, "And when you've earned your reward, I'll be more than happy to see you enjoy it. But, for now, let's watch as your sisters welcome Cordy to the family."

Harmony nodded happily, and turned around in my arms, so we were both facing the couch. They had switched positions, and now it was Parvati who was experiencing Cordy's tongue, while Tara was between Cordy's thighs. It was probably the most erotic thing I'd every seen. All of them were showing signs that they were on the verge of cumming, and I was looking forward to watching it.

Watching Cordy driving Tara up the wall, I held back a chuckle, because she'd obviously been paying attention to the stories that we told her. We watched as she moved her hand up to Tara's ass, and, with no warning, slid a finger inside her! Tara's shriek as she came made me glad that Parvati had put up silencing charms, otherwise the neighbors would have been pounding on the door to see if we were all right!

When she recovered, Tara climbed off of the couch and sat on the rug, a silly smile on her face, as she leaned back and closed her eyes. Soon she was dozing on the carpet, while Cordy moved so that she and Parvati were in a 69 position, and it was obvious they were try to make each other cum first.

It was very close, but Parvati managed to get Cordy off shortly before she hit her own peak, and the two of them were soon stretched out and dozing next to Tara.

It took quite a while for Harmony and I to be able to get the three of them into the shower and cleaned off before we stumbled into the bedroom and collapsed on the bed.

Of course, just because we were in bed didn't mean that we fell asleep right away. By unspoken agreement, Cordy took the spot next to me, while the others were on either side of us. Rolling onto my side, I said, "Now that the girls have welcomed you, I really hope you aren't ready to fall asleep yet, are you?"

She chuckled, "Hell no! The girls were wonderful, but I'm just getting warmed up!"

"Good to know," I said, as I rolled on top of her and kissed her, while she wrapped her legs around my waist. I don't know which of the girls it was, but, while we were kissing, I felt a soft hand around my cock guiding me inside Cordy's soaking pussy. Cordy broke the kiss and gasped as I slid into her, and it just felt right! I loved Tara and the others, but Cordy was my first, and always will be special to me, and I was determined to let her know just how much she meant to me, so I leaned down and kissed her again, before whispering how much I loved her in her ear. She tightened around me and kissed me back, her eyes shining with happiness as we moved together, finding our rhythm.

Of course, the other three girls weren't sitting idle while Cordy and I made love. Parvati and Tara each locked their mouths on one of Cordy's breasts, and I felt Harmony move behind us. I wasn't exactly sure what she was doing, until I felt her hair on my legs, and her tongue licked the two of us at the same time!

We went on like that for quite a while, and Cordy had hit her peak multiple times before I felt the tightening in my balls and and gasped out her name as I exploded inside her. That set Cordy off again, and she cried out my name, before falling back, panting.

Keeping my arms around her, I gently slid out and laid back next to her, only to watch, amused as Harmony locked her mouth on Cordy's pussy and started cleaning her up, sending Cordy back over the edge. I didn't get to enjoy the view for long, though, because Tara and Parvati decided to clean me up, and their two tongues and mouths were soon working on my cock.

It was another hour before we finally fell asleep, with satisfied smiles on our faces.

The Next Morning

I'll be honest, I'd gotten used to waking up with a mouth on my cock over the last few weeks, and it was certainly a lot more enjoyable than my old alarm clock. But this time was different, it was Cordelia who was using her mouth on me, and it didn't take much time at all for me to be flooding her mouth! She pulled away and turned to Harmony, kissing her and sharing what I'd given her, before doing the same thing with Tara and Parvati.

Of course, a sight like that had me hard again almost instantly, unfortunately the growl from my stomach, echoed by sounds from the others, meant that we had to take a break and get something to eat.

It was after I had finished cooking breakfast for all us and we were sitting at the table that Cordy said, with a grin, "So, Xander, where did Mister Dominant come from? You weren't like that when we were dating, that's for sure!"

With a chuckle, I explained about the memories from Halloween and getting away from the Hellmouth. Cordy's only comment was that she knew she should have gone on the road trip with me!

Growing serious, she said, "Okay, let's say I buy that for a dollar. After all, we've all experienced stranger things over the years. But, what about your eye? Didn't you lose your eye a few years ago?"

When I finished explaining, Cordy frowned and got up from the table. Grabbing her purse, she pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to me. I glanced at it, but didn't recognize the handwriting. Then I took a look at what the note said and I froze! Dammit! The Powers couldn't leave well enough alone, could they?

"Tell your White Knight that the gift from the Mohra is more than it seems, A champion needs an edge, after all!"

There was dead silence around the table until Tara said what we were all thinking. "Well, Fuck!"

Hearing Tara swear like that surprised a laugh out of me, and the others as well, but I nodded, "That about sums it up, Tare-Bear, I think that our lives just got even more interesting than they already are."

Looking over at Cordy, I remembered the conversation with Faith, and said, "This might be uncomfortable for you, Cor, but, when I mentioned to Faith that you were going to here, she asked me to tell you that she'd really like to talk to you, to try and apologize for what happened before."

Cordy froze, a frown on her face before she looked back at me. "Does she really think an apology is going to make up for what she did to me? To all of us back then?"

I shook my head, "No, she knows that she did horrible things to you, but she said she knows she has to make an effort to make amends, for her own mental health if nothing else. There's nothing that says you have to accept her apology, but it's up to you if you want to hear her out."

The frown dropped from her face, and she sat silently for a moment or two, obviously thinking, before she said. "Let her know that I'm willing to meet with her. I've run into a lot of people over the last couple of years who were in really bad situations, and they couldn't control what they did. I'm not promising to accept her apology, but I do owe it to her to at least listen. She was one of us, once, and apparently she's gotten her head straightened out, so maybe she can be one of us again."

Looking at the time, it was late enough that Faith would be awake, so I said, "If you like, I can call her now? Invite her over after dinner tonight so the two of you can talk privately? We'll all be here if you need us, but will give you the privacy you need."

Cordy nodded, and I went and grabbed my phone. A quick conversation later, and a very relieved Faith agreed to stop by this evening. Ending the call, I went back to the table, and we finished eating in silence.

After we had finished, and Parvati decided to show off by using magic to get the dishes cleaned and put away, we got dressed for the day. Harmony suggested that we spend the day getting me some suits made, and find some matching trench coats for all of them to wear when in the office.

Cordy looked curious, only to laugh and say she wanted one too when Harmony explained. Calling for a cab, we were soon on our way to Harrods for a day of shopping. Parvati and Tara had suggested Seville Row, but I explained that those suits were too upscale for a Private Investigator. I did say that I was open to the idea of getting a couple of tailor made suits done when we got back to California, so they didn't have to ship them overseas.

I could see Harmony and Cordy's eyes light up at the thought of a trip to Rodeo Drive, and just laughed.

We spent the day shopping, and it wasn't anywhere near as bad as I expected, especially when Cordy lead us to the woman's lingerie department, and all four of them decided to put on a private fashion show for me and each other. A couple of the younger sales ladies were watching, and I caught a few of them looking at me speculatively, but I didn't pay them any attention. The girls I am with are more than enough to keep me satisfied.

It was after we finished shopping, and Parvati managed to discreetly shrink all of our packages that we decided to talk a walk and pick up some take-away for dinner before meeting Faith back at my flat. We were walking down a street I didn't remember being on before, when Parvati froze, staring at a sign on a door ahead of us. I looked at the sign, it seemed to be an adult shop, with a neon sign reading "The Stag and The Doe" on the door. It didn't mean anything to me, and I could see Tara and the other two were just as confused, so I said, "What's going on, Parvati? What's so fascinating about that sign?"

She just grinned and said, "I'm not sure, yet. Give me a sec, I've got to make a call." Parvati pulled her cell phone from her jacket and pressed a couple of buttons, and, when it was answered, she said, "Luna? Great! Tell me, what was the name of that shop and club that Harry inherited from his parents?.... The Stag and the Doe? Excellent, thanks!.... Oh, we were out for a walk after shopping all day, and I saw the sign and wanted to be sure if this was the place. Anyway, got to go, tell Pad that I love her, and will call her tomorrow. Bye!"

When she put the phone away, she grinned, "I was right! Padma had mentioned that Harry had inherited a sex shop and strip club from his parents, and I thought that I remembered the name. It's too bad we have to hurry and meet Faith, because we could see what kind of paddles and handcuffs they have on sale!"

"Well, we still have a few days before we leave, so I'm sure we can find the time to come back, Parvati. But, you are right, we need to grab something to eat and get back." I pulled out my phone and entered the name and address of the shop for future reference, and the lot of us headed to the Indian place that Parvati recommended.

Xander's Flat
8:00 pm

We had finished dinner, and the containers were all in the trash, when I heard a hesitant knock on the door. Giving Cordy a look, she stood up and we walked to the door. I checked the peephole, and, as I figured, Faith was standing there, looking more nervous than I could ever remember seeing her look before. Opening the door, I stood back and let her walk in. She smiled at me, and then froze when she saw Cordy standing there watching her, an impassive look on her face.

Faith licked her lips before saying, "Thanks for agreeing to see me, C, I know that couldn't be easy for you, but, I really do appreciate it."

Cordy nodded, "You were one of us, once, before things went bad, and now that you've found your way back, I'm willing to hear you out." Turning toward the bedroom, she said, "Follow me. I figured you wanted a place to talk privately, and the bedroom is about as private as you're going to get here."

It was obvious how uncertain Faith was, when she didn't make any comment about being in a bedroom with Queen C. I just hoped that Cordy wasn't too hard on her. I know that Faith screwed up, badly, but hell, we all did at one point or another, and she had turned herself around and been a great help when the First Evil made its' play.

Going to the fridge, I asked if the others wanted a beer, and they all nodded, so I grabbed one for each of us before sitting down again. I guess my worry must have been showing on my face, because Harmony said, "Obviously there is something huge going on between Faith and Cordy that I'm not aware of. Can you clue us in?"

I opened my bottle and took a swallow before saying, "Yeah, you could say that. I don't know how much you were aware of Faith when we were in our Senior Year, Harm, but Faith was one of the Scoobies for a while, before things went bad...."

It took almost 20 minutes for me to tell them what had happened in Sunnydale, and, later, when Faith went on her rampage in Los Angeles before turning herself in. "And, on top of all that, Faith was the first girl I had sex with, and I'm sure that Cordy isn't real happy about that either!"

Harmony gave a low whistle, while Tara and Parvati were staring at me in shock. Harmony found her voice first, and said, "Well, damn! You're right, I had no idea all that was going on. I hate to say it, but it sounds like all of you needed your butts kicked for ignoring what was going on with Faith!"

I gave a bitter laugh, "Trust me, that's nothing that all of us haven't said to each other over the years. We all screwed up, and it's a miracle that Faith was strong enough to get through all the shit and come out the other side. I'll tell you this, I admire and respect Buffy, but if it came to an apocalyptic situation, I'd rather have Faith at my back than any of the other experienced slayers. Because I know that I can count on her, she's been through the fire and won't flake out on us!"

I heard a gasp from behind me, and I jerked around in my seat, only to drop my bottle in shock! Faith was standing there, her face wet with tears, but what was really shocking was that she was stark naked, except for one of my belts looped around her throat as an impromptu collar! Cordy was standing behind her, holding the belt, with a satisfied look on her face. I knew that something major had happened, but before I could say anything, Faith spoke,

"Do you really mean that, X? That you would trust me at your back more than B or any of the others?"

"Hell yes! You've proven yourself to me, and I'd take you at my back any time!"

That must have been the right thing to say, because Cordy smiled at me, and released the belt, and I found myself with a lap full of naked Slayer! Faith was clinging to me for dear life, and crying her heart out. I don't know what she and Cordy had discussed, but it must have been a doozy! I put my arms around her, and rubbed her back, comforting her. Glancing down, I saw that Faith's ass was bright red, and there were lines all over the skin, which gave me a major clue about what was going on.

Looking up at Cordy, I mouthed the word 'Crop?' and she nodded, before she said, "I've accepted Faith's apology, and we came to an understanding."

I kept comforting Faith until she fell asleep in my arms, all cried out. Standing, I carried her into the bedroom and loosened the belt from around her neck before I laid her face down on the bed, and covered her with a sheet.

Stepping back into the living room, I sat down on the couch and gestured for the girls to sit as well. Looking at Cordy, I just said, "Explain, please."

Cordy leaned back in the chair and said, "Well, what I said was true, I did accept Faith's apology, and the two of us managed to clear the air of quite a bit of bad blood between us. We also discussed the way she treated you, throwing you out of her room in your underwear that night. She said that she would apologize to you for that, but I told her she had to make amends to me first, because you were mine, even if we were broken up at the time. That's how she ended up naked and feeling the crop you had hanging in your closet!"

I nodded, "And the belt around her neck?"

Cordy flushed slightly, "Well, it seems that Faith had been hiding it, but she, like certain other girls in the room, really needs a firm hand to keep her in line, and she had heard about your experiences with Anya and Rona, and was trying to get the nerve up to approach you about it when you got back. Of course, seeing you with Harmony, Parvati and Tara surprised her, and she figured she'd lost her chance. I know you still care for her, and decided that, if you wanted her to join us, I wouldn't have a problem with it. The collar was just to reinforce her position."

I'll admit, that surprised the hell out of me, but I certainly didn't have a problem with the idea. Looking at the other three, Tara and Parvati both shrugged, and Harmony said, "I'd say go for it. I told you that you all should have had your butts kicked, but now you have another chance to help her and give her what she needs. And I think I'd feel more comfortable learning from Faith than from Buffy, because there is still some unpleasant history between Buffy and I from Sunnydale."

I nodded, "Okay, if that is what Faith truly wants, then I'll go see Giles tomorrow and ask that Faith come back with us. Besides, after Buffy and Willow stopped soaking their feet in the river, I don't imagine that they would want to be separated any time soon."

Harmony giggled, "Probably not, in fact I think Willow would probably create a spell to let her shoot lightning at you if you tried to take her Supergirl away!" She paused, "Although, to really be true to the characters, Buffy should probably dress up like Shrinking Violet, but she wouldn't appreciate the height comments!"

I couldn't help it, I laughed, knowing that she was right. Parvati and Cordy looked a little confused, until Tara chuckled and said, "There's been a long time rumor in Legion fandom that Lightning Lass and Shrinking Violet were lovers, and it was basically confirmed a few years ago if I remember correctly."

Parvati and Cordy grinned in understanding, and Parvati said, "Well, I guess the only question is, who is Faith going to be dressing up as?"

That led to a conversation that lasted almost an hour, before the bedroom door opened and Faith wandered out, looking at us in confusion. I held my arms opened, and she came over and curled up next to me on the couch as we continued our conversation.

We didn't reach any conclusions that night, because Faith wasn't familiar with the Legion, being more of an X-Men fan, and we didn't have the time to truly educate her before we went to bed, Parvati expanding the bed even further.

We were all tired, and Faith was still worn out from the conversation (and spanking) to be ready for playtime, so we just cuddled for a while before falling asleep, although Faith did comment that she was looking forward to getting to play with us all tomorrow. She did also agree to come to California with us, not just because of joining the family, but because things were still tense between her and Buffy and Willow.

The Next Morning

Faith was a lot more relaxed the next morning, and was already awake and having coffee while chatting with Harmony about different methods she used to train. Harmony was fascinated with some of the stories Faith was telling, and it seemed she was really looking forward to trying them for herself.

By the time I had gotten a shower and was dressed for the day, the others were awake and having their own cups coffee. It surprised me that Parvati had picked up the habit as well, instead of her usual breakfast tea. Our Indian beauty was dressed in her work clothes for a change, because she was going to the Ministry to complete her resignation paperwork and clean out her desk, while Harmony and Cordy were going to be searching for different locations for the Detective Agency office.

When I looked at Tara, she had her laptop open, and was typing furiously. When she got to a stopping point, she grinned and said, "I'm just writing up Tania's latest adventures, I have published anything this week, and my readers expect something from me on a regular basis. I don't mind, since they are happy to send me their money when I put a new story out!"

I grinned, "And I'm sure that you have lots of story ideas, just from the last few days, don't you?"

She gave a throaty chuckle, "Oh yeah! I expect that there will a lot of ladies with cramped fingers, and guys with sore wrists by the time they finish reading this one!"

Chuckling, I took Faith's hand, and we headed out the door.

Headquarters
The New Watchers Council
Shortly Afterward

Faith wanted to change clothes before meeting with Giles, which I understood, not needing the questions about showing up in the same clothes she left in the night before. I followed her up to her room and sat on a chair by the desk while she stripped down. She didn't hesitate at all, since she'd already been naked with me and the others last night, but I was glad to see that that marks Cordy had left on her ass had already faded by the time we got to her room.

As she was dressing, I said, "Just so there is no misunderstanding, Faith, if you decide to continue with us, with being our submissive, that your training will be harder than almost anything you've ever done? I know that you have been used to doing things on your own, and not trusting anybody to help you, and that is going to change. While you are being trained, you will be giving up control over almost all aspects of your life to Cordy and I, and I'm well aware that is going to be difficult for you. You have years of habits to unlearn. So I want you to think very seriously about whether this is something that you want to do before you make the final step."

She looked at me seriously, "I've been thinking about it quite a bit, ever since I got the 411 from Anya, and then Rona. Anya told me all about her training, and you're right, it's going to be tough, but doing it my way ended up with me in a cell and fighting off Big Bertha's attention, and there is no way I want to go through that again!"

I smiled at her, "Good, but, what I was leading up to was, even if you decide you don't want to take that step, you are still going to be part of the family, and we will love you and support you, you will always have someone to watch your back, just like we count on you to watch ours, okay?"

Faith smiled happily, and she gave me a hug before finishing getting dressed. When she was presentable, we left to go find Giles.

We were in luck, because Giles was in his office, and he was actually talking to Buffy when I knocked on the door. After the normal greetings, I said, "I just wanted to talk to the two of you for a minute. After talking with Faith and Cordy last night, as well as Harmony, I'm going to ask that Faith be the slayer to join us instead of Buffy."

Turning to Buffy I said, "This is nothing against you, Buff, it's just that Faith asked to join our family last night, and we've all agreed."

I wasn't surprised to see a look of relief cross Buffy's face, since I was sure she didn't want to leave Willow behind. Turning back to Giles, I added, "That means you won't have to worry about finding an apartment for Faith or a job, since she will be on the payroll of my Detective Agency when I get it up and running."

Buffy grinned, "Are you going to call them 'Xander's Angels, Xan?"

Faith choked on a laugh, and I smirked, "I don't know, do you think Dawn would be willing to change her name to Bosley?"

Buffy laughed as well, while Giles looked confused. The poor deprived Brit, not being aware of the wonder of Farrah, Kate and Jacklyn. I'm going to have to get him the series on DVD so he can see what he's missing.

Giles said "Yes, well, I don't have any objections to Faith taking the assignment, do you Buffy?"

Buffy shook her head with a smile, "Not at all, Giles, especially when that was the reason I came to see you. Willow and I would rather stay together here, at least for the time being."

"Sounds good. Now, if you will excuse us, I'm going to help Faith with starting to pack, since we've only got a couple of days before we leave."

Giles nodded and Buffy said, "Oh! I just remembered, you won't need to find a place for Dawn to stay. She was emailing Janice, who is going to school at San Francisco State, and she has a spare bedroom that Dawn can use. I think Dawn was talking about checking out their language program while she was there."

I grinned, "That's good to know, and you won't need to worry about finding a job for her either, G-Man, since she'll be working at the agency as well." I ignored, with the ease of long practice, Giles request that I not call him that, besides, I was rather proud of my self control, especially after Dawn's comment about her weekend with Janice, in avoiding making a comment about her being a rather cunning linguist.

I could see that Faith was holding back her snickers as well, and the two of us left Giles office fairly soon, to head down to the office I had been using when I was in country. We made it inside, and the door closed behind us, barely, when Faith started laughing, "Dawnie is a cunning linguist, isn't she?"

I couldn't help it, my laughter came bubbling up, and soon we were leaning against the door, howling!

When we got our laughter under control, I realized that Faith was pressed up against me, and my body reacted. Faith felt me pressing against her thigh, and grinned wickedly, "Want me to help you out with that, 'master'?"

I smirked, "I've never actually christened this office, so why not?"

Pushing off from the door, I walked over to my desk and sat down in the chair, sliding it away from my desk. Faith got the idea immediately, and snickered, "I think you've been watching too many porn videos, Xan, but, since I'm here, I guess you want me to take some dick-tation?" She was already pulling her top off as she moved toward me, and by the time she was standing in front of me, her jeans and panties were on the floor as well.

I shook my head, "I'm not even going to attempt to keep going with the cheesy dialogue, but you've got the idea!"

Faith grinned and licked her lips, before kneeling down on the carpet in front of me. I spread my legs and she reached up and unzipped my pants, before fishing my hard cock out. Faith moved forward, and I said, "Finger yourself while you suck me, I want you to get yourself nice and wet for when I bend you over my desk, okay?"

"Gotta say, I'm loving the kink, X-man," she smirked, before opening her mouth and sucking on the head of my cock. I leaned back, enjoying the warmth of her mouth, and the way the tongue stud felt on the shaft. She was doing a wonderful job, and I could see her free hand between her legs, rubbing her pussy, and it just turned me on even more.

Faith was really getting into what she was doing, and I could tell it wouldn't be long, when we were interrupted by the phone on my desk ringing! With a curse, I sat up and reached for it, glancing at the caller ID, I wondered what the hell Harry was calling me for?

Picking up the receiver, I said, "Hey Harry, what's going on?"

I heard Harry chuckled, "Sorry to bother you, Xander, but I was curious about something. Luna told me about a phone call she got from Parvati last night, I wondered what it was all about?"

I froze for a second, trying to remember what the call was about, before I grinned, and started to answer, but, of course, my voice came out a bit strange, because Faith decided to show she knew how to deep throat me right at that moment!

"Oooooh! Ah, yeah, we were out walking around, looking for a place to have dinner.... Ah, damn! And we, we saw a sign on a door that said "The Stag and The Doe" and Parvati thought she recog – recognized it!" I pulled the phone away and glared down at Faith, "Damn it girl, you are going to get a spanking if you keep that up!"

Harry's voice came over the phone, "What was that? Who is going to be getting a spanking?"

'Shit! I can't believe he heard that!' Clearing my throat, I said, "Oh, nothing, nothing at all! Just somebody being a brat, and I'm going to have to remind her of her place."

Harry laughed, "She's giving you a knobber, isn't she? I know she is, because Luna did the exact same thing to me, but I was on the phone with the Prime Minister's office at the time! She couldn't sit down for hours afterward!"

I managed to keep my voice steady as I said, "She won't be, either, when I'm done with her!"

I could hear Harry's grin over the wires, and he said "Well, I'll let you get back to it, and I hope you'll stop by before you head back to the States, I'm sure Lavender would enjoy another chance to drool over you!"

I laughed and said I would do my best, and ended the call, just as I totally lost control and blasted into Faith's mouth. I reached down and held her in place, making sure she swallowed everything before I let her go. She pulled back, licking her lips to get the last of my cum off them, before smirking at me unrepentantly.

She wasn't smirking a couple of minutes later, when I had her bend over my desk and a pair of handcuffs around her wrists as I spanked her ass! I wasn't really angry with her, because it was funny, and if I had been angry I wouldn't have been spanking her, because it's too easy to get out of control, but her actions did deserve an appropriate reaction, and she enjoyed it as much as I did.

By the time her ass was nice and red, and Faith was squirming on my desk, I decided to really amp things up, and I reached into my private drawer and pulled out the training plug I had used on Rona, as well as some lubricant. "Have you ever taken a cock up your ass, Faith?" I asked while I was coating my fingers with the lube. She shook her head, and I grinned, "Well, you're going to before you leave this office!" Faith squealed when I slipped the first finger into her ass, and was moaning as I added the second, third and fourth fingers. I fingered her pussy while I was stretching her, and she started to relax and move against my hand before I was finished.

Pulling my fingers out of her ass, I wiped my fingers clean, before I slipped the plug into her. She jerked at the strange sensation, and I said, "It's just a training plug, to start getting your ass used to being filled. I fuck all my girls in the ass on a regular basis, and they've learned to love it. You will too, trust me!"

Faith ground out, "Big talk, X-man! Show me what you got!"

I grinned, knowing that if Faith really objected to what I was doing to her, she could easily snap the cuffs in two and get out, but from the way she was breathing, and her pussy clenching around my fingers, I could tell she was enjoying herself as much as I was.

Pulling my fingers from her pussy, I dropped my pants and stepped out of them as I moved closer. Reaching around her, I put my fingers, wet with her juices in front of her face, and rubbed them on her lips. She was soon sucking my fingers like she sucked my cock, only stopping to moan when I slipped my cock inside her.

Bracing one of my hands on the desk top, I leaned down and said, "Do you like this Faith? Do you like being locked in place, knowing that your master can do anything to you that he wants? That I own your body and will be using you for my pleasure at any time? Just imagine, after I get through with you, I'm going to put a collar and a lead around your throat, and take you out of the office, stark naked with my cum dripping down your legs and your pussy juice on your lips. I think I'm going to need to go see Giles and Buffy again, can you picture what their reaction will be to seeing you, knowing that I just fucked you in all three of your holes? And then Willow will see you. I bet the witch will be so turned on seeing you that she'll start fingering her pussy right in the office! Did you know that Willow shaves her pussy? I made her shave it and keep it shaved when we were messing around back in high school! If she and Buffy are really good, I'll finger you again, and let them suck the mixture of my cum and your juices off my fingers, until they are begging to lick your juices from the source!"

That was all it took, as Faith started jerking against me, letting loose with a stream of profanity like I hadn't heard before, until she lapsed into babbling incoherently as her head exploded from the climax.

I held still inside her, letting her recover, before I started moving again. Faith started moving back against me, and crying out my name as she was hit by another burst of pleasure. Wanting to get her in the proper mindset, "And when we get home tonight, I'm going to have you on your knees, with your hands still cuffed behind your back, as you lick Cordy, Harmony, Tara and Parvati to orgasm, and I'm going to film it all, and put it out on the Slayer's network, so they can all see what a sexy bitch you are, and they're going to be fingering themselves raw, wishing that they were there!"

I had been moving the plug in her ass around as I fucked her, and, as she went over the edge again, I slid the plug out, and pulled my cock from her pussy. Shifting slightly, I pushed the head of my cock against her ring, and slid forward, the plug had her stretched out far enough that I went in easily, burying myself inside her virgin ass.

Putting the plug aside, I moved my hands to her tits and started playing with her nipple rings as I pumped into her. The heat and tightness was almost more than I could stand, and I kept quiet while she adjusted to the new feelings. Soon enough she was moving again, pushing backward to get me deeper inside her ass, and crying out in pleasure.

It didn't take long before both of us were cumming again, and I swear I almost blacked out when she clenched her ass around my cock as I was shooting my load inside her. By the time I had recovered, Faith was laying there, panting, and I could see a smile that a sandblaster couldn't remove on her face.

Grabbing the key to the handcuffs, I took them off, and helped her off the desk, and the two of us staggered to the shower that was in my private bathroom.

Faith was still smiling when the water hit us, and I don't think she even realized that she automatically reached for the liquid soap and washcloth and started washing me. She was still deep in her happy place, and I just let her enjoy the feelings.

Eventually, she got me clean, including my cock, which was hanging limp after the exercise, and started washing herself. When she was finished and we both rinsed off, she finally spoke, "Damn! I ain't never cum like that before! I should have jumped you right after I talked to Rona, hell, I should have jumped you back in Sunny-D, and never bothered with Robin. Anya had told me that you had a filthy imagination, but I thought she was exaggerating. She wasn't, and I bet, where ever she is, she's watching this with a big ol' tub of popcorn and cheering us on!"

I chuckled, and said, "Probably," it was funny, before Harmony and the others came into my life again, I probably would have gotten depressed at the mention of Anya, but now, I could only smile at the memories. Definitely an improvement, as far as I'm concerned!

By the time we were dressed, Faith went over to the desk and grabbed the handcuffs and key, as well as the plug and the lube, and tossed them in her purse. "They are way too much fun to leave behind when we go back to the states! Besides, Cordy said you hadn't taken her ass yet when we talked last night, so I figure you'll want to get the plug cleaned so you can get her stretched out too!"

With a smile on my face at that mental image, I checked my reflection in the mirror, and decided we both looked presentable. Opening my office door, I froze to see Rona, Vi and a couple of the other slayers, not Buffy, fortunately, and Dawn standing there with wide smiles on their faces, and one of them, I'm not sure who, started to clap and cheer before they broke out laughing at our expressions.

After a minute or so, all of them left, except for Rona and Dawn, and Rona just said, "Damn, I didn't think it was possible, but you've gotten even better since we were together." Shaking her head in amusement, she leaned in and gave Faith a kiss on the lips, and said, "Enjoy yourself, Xander will take good care of you, and give you what you need." With that, she gave me a wink and walked off down the hall.

Dawn was still snickering, but managed to say, "I think I'm glad that I'll be staying with Janice. If I was staying with you, and kept hearing you with all the others, I'd probably be tempted to strip down and join you, and I really don't like to share!"

With that, Dawn laughed again, and headed back toward her office.

I just looked at Faith, and she looked as stunned as I felt, so I just shrugged, and the two of us went back to her room to start packing things up.

The Stag and the Doe
Later that Afternoon

Faith was looking around curiously when I stopped the cab in front of the story, although the driver looked at me and smirked knowingly. When we got out of the cab, Faith said, "What's this place? I thought we were going back to your apartment."

"We will, but I wanted to check this place out first, maybe do a bit of shopping."

Faith looked dubious, and said, "I'm not real sure about that Xander, if it ain't leathers or weapons, I'm not a big fan of shopping."

I chuckled, "Trust me, Faith, this is a type of shopping you're going to enjoy." I didn't say any more, just walked toward the door, and I heard Faith walking behind me.

I stopped when we got through the second set of doors, and I heard Faith softly breathe, "Fuck me! This is awesome!"

I laughed, "Told you so! Now, let's go, there's a few things I want to pick up while we are here."

Guiding her over to the bondage gear, I took down a pair of padded leather wrist cuffs, that had clips to hold them together, as well as metal rings that can be used for cord or rope, and a matching set of ankle cuffs with the same attachments. Faith grinned when she saw them, and held out her wrists in front of her, and I put the cuffs on each wrist, as well as having her put the ankle cuffs around each ankle.

"How do they feel, Faith? Tight enough, too tight, or not tight enough?"

"I like 'em, they can adjust to fit, and I think they'll fit all of us just fine, even Parvati, coz she's the smallest of us."

"Good!" I said, with a nod, before pulling the price tag off the cuffs that Faith was wearing, and picking up three more sets and setting them in the basket. I lead her over to the chokers, and noticed that a sales girl was watching us curiously.

Looking over the chokers, I smiled when I saw the ones I wanted. They were made of silk and laced in the back, and on the front, there was a small golden heart hanging in the center. Picking up four of them, I looked over at the sales girl and waved her over.

When the pretty blonde came up to me, I did a double take, because she looked familiar, but I couldn't quite place her. I glanced at her name tag and said, "Hi Katie, got a quick question. Can you engrave names on each of these hearts here, or would I have to get it done somewhere else?"

Katie smiled, "Oh, we can engrave them here, it only takes a few minutes. What names are you wanting to have engraved? We can ring these up first, and have them being worked on while you continue shopping."

I grinned at her, "I like that idea, because the next items we need are going to take a pick of consideration. Let's go take care of the cuffs and the chokers now."

Faith was still looking around in amazement as we walked toward the counter. Finally she said, "Shit, Xander, where did you hear about this place, it's friggin awesome!"

I gave her a look, and said, "Remember that phone call from Harry, the one where you tried to 'distract me'? Well, he wanted to know why Parvati was asking about this shop, because we found it last night before you came over. It turns out that Harry owns this place, he inherited it from his parents."

Faith snickered, but shook her head, "I still can't believe that you know Harry Freaking Potter! I mean, we've seen enough strangeness to accept that he is a real person, but it still blows my mind that you know him."

Katie was looking at us with a strange expression on her face, and said, "Excuse me, but how do you know Harry?"

I took another look at her, and a memory clicked. "Holy shit! You're Katie Bell! I remember you now! I was part of the team that helped train Harry, Hermione and Ron for the final throw down with Riddle and his thugs. I remember seeing you practicing with Ron's brothers and a few others before the battle."

Katie's eyes widened, "Xander? Xander Harris? Oh this is too funny! I didn't recognize you at first, because I mainly remembered the eye patch. Good to see you don't need it anymore, by the way." She turned toward the counter, carrying the basket, before she turned back and said, "It's none of my business, so you can tell me it's none of my business, but the Parvati you mentioned, would that be Parvati Patil?"

I nodded, "I take it you know her? I don't remember her being part of the group being trained."

Katie smiled, "You could say I know her, she and I were in the same house as Harry all through school. And she and Padma were both being trained as healers, neither of them felt comfortable being offensive fighters. They could defend themselves, no problem, but their religion holds that all life is sacred and they didn't think they could force themselves to kill."

"I can understand that, we never really talked much about what she did during the battle, just like Faith and I don't like to talk much about the fights we've been in."

She nodded, "Okay, now I'm really going to be nosy, how did you end up getting close enough to Parvati that you are getting her a choker?"

I laughed, "It's a really long story, but, a few weeks ago my co-workers decided I needed a vacation, and booked me on a cruise...."

She and Faith were laughing by the end of the story, Faith had heard parts of it before, but this was the first time she'd heard the whole thing, and Katie was just amazed at the coincidence that Harmony and I ended up at the same table as Harry and the others. I didn't say anything, but, after the note that Cordy showed us, I was fairly certain that it was a manipulation by the Powers and not a coincidence. The fact that I am extremely happy about the results doesn't mean I don't still resent the manipulation, damn it!

By this time, we were up at the counter, and Katie was writing up the engraving slips for Faith, Parvati, Harmony and Tara and giving them to the person who did the work. As we we were walking back toward the toy section, Faith said, "I noticed you didn't get one for C, isn't she going to be pissed?"

I shook my head, "No, I don't think so, for a couple of reasons. One, she isn't anywhere near as submissive as you and the others, and, two, I'm planning on talking to her tonight about giving her something else to show that we are together. You can't say anything to her, because I don't want to spoil the surprise, but once I knew that Cordy was willing to start over and she was coming here, I stopped at a jewelry store and picked out an engagement ring."

Faith surprised me then, she actually squealed happily and hugged me! I had never seen her react like that, and I was taken aback, at least a little. When she released me, I smiled and said, "I guess you like the idea?"

She looked a little embarrassed, putting her mask back into place, and she said, "Yeah, I think it's cool, ya know? And I'm sure that C will really be happy about it. Probably been planning her wedding since she was a little girl, and now she can dig out her plans and get them updated."

I just looked at her, but didn't say anything. Faith lets her mask slip so rarely that I wasn't going to tease her about it. Hopefully being fully part of the family will help her realize she doesn't have to hide part of herself any longer. But that's a long term thing, right now we have more shopping to do.

It was almost an hour later that Katie finished packing up our purchases, after showing me the engraving and getting my okay. She even went ahead and called a cab for us, laughing that the commission she made on what I'd bought more than covered the cost of a phone call.

Xander's Flat
Later that Afternoon

I could pick up the sound of women's laughter as I put my key in the door and braced myself, because that was usually not a good sign. Opening the door, I walked in with Faith following me, only to blink when I saw that all the girls were naked, and shaved! Including Cordy! They all looked over at the two of us, and started laughing again.

I just stared for a second, before turning around and closing the door so the neighbors didn't get an eyeful, and said, "Does anybody want to tell me what is so funny? Because Faith and I would probably enjoy a good laugh too."

The others all looked at Tara, who stuck her tongue out at them, before giggling. "Well, I just got a phone call a little while ago, from Dawn. It seems that she and a few of the slayers got quite an education in your personal lives while they were outside your office!" She had tried to keep a straight face, but lost her composure and started laughing again, setting off the others.

Once I understood exactly what she was talking about, I started laughing as well, as did Faith, and soon we were all holding each other as we tried to catch our breaths.

When we were back in control, I glanced over at Faith, who was still carrying the bag, and held out my hand. She gave me the bag and, without being prompted, stripped down to her skin as well. When I noticed the thatch of dark hair covering her, I said, "I need to talk to Cordelia in private for a few minutes, before I show you what we bought for you today. But, while I'm doing that, Parvati, can you please demonstrate the grooming spell on Faith? I don't want her to stand out among you lovely ladies?"

Parvati nodded, "Of course, Sir. It won't take a minute." She went to grab her wand, while I took Cordy's hand and lead her into our bedroom.

Cordy didn't say anything, even when I sat her down on the edge of the bed, but when I got down on one knee and pulled the ring box out of my pocket she started smiling, and I could see the start of tears in her eyes.

I'll admit it, I was nervous, even though I'd rehearsed this multiple times over the past few days, and I almost fumbled the box getting it opened. "Cordy, I know this may seem sudden, but it's not, not really. You and I both know that we were heading that way before those demon bitches interfered back when we were teenagers. But, we have a fresh start, and I love you, I never really stopped, and would love nothing more than to make you as happy as you have made me, for the rest of my life." Pulling the ring out and reaching for her left hand, I said, "Will you marry me?"

Her shouted "Yes!" and the sound of her jumping me and kissing me senseless drew everybody to the bedroom, and I could hear them all cheering as I did my best to kiss her back.

Once she broke the kiss, and I got the ring on her finger, we climbed up off the floor and I took her hand again, before grabbing the bag from the Stag and Doe.

When we were all in the living room, and the others had a chance to ooh and aah over Cordy's ring, I said, "Okay girls, you've all had a chance to admire your Mistress's ring, and, yes, she and I will be getting married when your Mistress decides what kind of ceremony she wants to have. But, for now, I want you in Position One so I can give you your gifts." I saw that Faith looked a little confused and said, "Just copy what the others do, Faith, I will be training you in the positions when we get back to California."

Faith nodded, and was soon on her knees with her legs spread apart, and I nodded to see that she was shaved just as clean as the others. When she had her hands behind her head, pushing her breasts out, I gave them a satisfied smile and reached into the bag and pulled out the smaller box that held the chokers.

Before I started putting them on each of the girls, I said, "I don't want you to feel that, because I asked Cordelia to marry me, that I don't love each one of you. If the laws of the non-magical world allowed it, I would be asking each of you to marry the two of us as well. Unfortunately that isn't possible, at least for now, so I wanted to find a way to show you that you belong to your Mistress and I, and to show that world that you are loved and members of this family."

I glanced over at Cordy to see how she was taking things, and she just smiled happily at me, and nodded. Pulling the first choker out, I checked to make sure it was the right one, and moved in front of Tara. Showing it to her, Tara's smile was blinding, and her eyes were suspiciously wet. Crouching down, I looked her in the eyes and said, "Tara, you were my first love after Cordy and I were torn apart, and it was with you that summer that I learned more about who I truly am, and I love you for that. It broke my heart when I thought we had lost you, and it didn't truly heal until you were back in my arms again. I give you this choker to show that I love you, and that you are part of us, and we are part of you. Will you accept it?"

She nodded, whispering, "Of course, Master, gladly!"

I put the silk around her throat, and laced it shut, before kissing her softly and moving to Harmony.

I hadn't really planned on what I was going to say to each of them, and hoped I didn't screw up too badly.

Looking Harmony in the eyes, I showed her the choker with her name on it, and got the same bright smile and shining eyes as I said, "Harmony, it's because of you that we are all together, and I don't know if even Shakespeare would have the words to express how much that means to me. You have changed so much since we first met, and I've grown to love the woman you've become, and thank you for your courage in expressing your true feelings to me that day. Will you accept this choker as a sign of our love for you, and your love for us?"

She smiled and nodded, and I put the choker around her throat and kissed her before moving to Parvati.

"Parvati, I've known you the shortest time of any of my ladies, but you have become just as large a part of me as the others, and it was because of you that a lost part of my heart was restored. I don't know if you can appreciate just how much that means to me, because I don't have the words to say it clearly. Just know that you are part of us, and we are part of you, now and forever. Will you accept this choker to show yourself, and the world that you are truly loved for the wonderful woman you truly are?"

Getting a huge smile, even through the tears shining in her eyes, she nodded, and I laced the choker on her and kissed her as well.

Looking directly at Faith, I said, "Faith, I know that you are probably a little nervous about this, since you are just joining us, but, as I said to you earlier, you are one of us, now and forever. We love and trust you, and, if you feel yourself falling, we are here to catch you until you can stand on your feet again. Will you let us love you, and will you let yourself love us? I offer you this choker as a sign that you are home, and will never be alone again. Will you accept it?"

There were tears rolling down Faiths' cheeks, but she gave me a trembling smile and nodded. Once I had the choker laced around her throat, and kissed her, she threw her arms around me and started sobbing as I held her. I could somehow feel that it wasn't tears of pain that she was crying, but cleansing tears, as something hard inside her finally broke, and she let it all out!

When Faith started crying, the other girls moved as well, and soon we had her in the center of a group hug, stroking her and soothing her, until she finally got herself under control, and she smiled, before kissing each of us in turn.

When the emotional storm passed, I stood up, and helped Faith to her feet, before doing the same for the others. "Well, I was going to suggest spending our last night here by ordering pizza, but, honestly I feel like showing you beautiful ladies off. What would you say to getting dressed up and going out to dinner, and maybe some dancing afterward?"

All of them eagerly nodded, and hurried off to get cleaned up and dressed, while I smiled and went to shave and grab a quick shower. I still don't understand why the Powers decided to focus on me, but if I could help somebody else like I helped Faith, I wasn't going to complain.

Elsewhere
The same time

Whistler smiled at the scene in the scrying mirror. The dark slayer taking steps to heal wasn't exactly part of the plan, but it was a nice bonus. The kid was already starting to develop his gifts, and the ladies would certainly be a big help. "But the depths of the connection was a bit strange, why were they so strong already? The Seer and the Demon Girl, I can understand, they already had the emotional connection, but the other three?"

He whirled around when another figure appeared before him, dropping to his knees when he recognized the beautiful, by human standards, blonde woman in the toga. "My Lady Aphrodite! How may I serve you?"

Aphrodite smiled, "You can stand up to start with, I'm just here for a moment. I wanted to let you know, so you can tell your bosses, that the love bonds between them are nothing to worry about. They were already forming, and, because I'm rather fond of the mortal you've chosen as champion, I just deepened the bonds and allowed them to grow together, so they will truly love each other, and not just all being connected to the Champion. My brother's seers informed me that the connection between them will be very helpful in the coming days and years."

Whistler nodded, a smile on his face. "Thank you Lady. I'll be sure to pass that on to my bosses, anything that will help the Champion in his mission is greatly appreciated. We learned our lesson with Rat-breath about the cryptic nonsense."

Before he could say anything else, the goddess had faded away, leaving him alone once again.

The End

Don't worry, there will be more stories down the line, these characters and this world is just too much fun to leave here! But going forward, I'm probably going to be going back to 3^rd Person, so I can really get into the other characters heads, and not just Xanders.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this little excursion that grew far beyond anything I had initially planned.

See you next time
