Sorry this took so long to get up! My updates should be somewhat more regular now that my schedule has calmed down- thanks for sticking by me.
As always this series contains gay sex, incest, vampires, BDSM, abuse and blood. This chapter does have a little more blood and abuse than other chapters, so if that offends you, please don't read on.

"Did my father send you out here to babysit me?" I asked, leaning back in the lavish arm chair. Marcus gave me a small smile.
"Are you going to kill me if I say yes?" Marcus asked, crossing his left leg over his knee.
"I'm not going to kill
you
." I said. Marcus barked out a short laugh. He rose and started pacing around the library.
"You can't kill your father." Marcus replied, leaning against a bookshelf.
"Not yet." I muttered. Marcus snickered.
"I know you hate him, but he makes a lot of sense." Marcus said, taking a book off the shelf and flipping through it casually.
"Stop. Defend him and I really will kill you." I stood to face him. He was an inch shorter than me, but his dark hair and devilish eyes would've been intimidating if I was anyone other than myself.
"I'm just saying, the man is a good vampire. I mean, you are too, but he's powerful. You could be like that one day. If you actually had ambition to expand. Imagine, Alexander Fairfield, King of North America and Europe. One day, the entire world!" Marcus said.
"Right," I murmured sarcastically, "I'm not interested in world conquest."
"Well, that doesn't really matter. Your father has arranged a ball." He said with a shrug.
I groaned, sinking back onto the chair. A ball? I'd attended far too many to count over the 24 years that I'd been alive. They were simply detestable. The people were stuffy and arrogant. The dancing was robotic and uninteresting. The expectations were too high.
And this one would be worse, because I'd have to find at least one woman (with a good amount of land) tolerable. It was hard to find anyone at these things that I wanted to dance with for five minutes, never mind live with and fuck for an eternity.
"It may not be that bad." Marcus said. He was grinning though, because he knew he was the one being unrealistic. Marcus didn't understand, he would never have to get married.
"Fuck you." I said simply. Marcus laughed, shaking his head.
We were interrupted by a quiet knock on the door.
"Come in." I said, and the door creaked open. Jacob stepped inside the library with an anxious grin.
"Hello brother." I said, eyeing him up and down. He looked delicious. His blonde hair was perfectly combed. He was wearing a fresh white shirt and black pants, but he didn't have a vest or a jacket on. He was also wearing a collar, my favourite collar. It was the one with the gold tag that read:
Alexander's
I was glad he was wearing it more regularly now. We had decided (or rather, I had decided and then informed him) that he would keep in on most of the time. It was a training collar. We haven't talked about it much, but I know that he really wants me to collar him -
really
collar him. I don't know if I'll ever have the option to, though I would like nothing more.
"May I come in?" He asked shyly. Marcus' eyes were fixed on Jacob, but Jacob kept his eyes on me.
"Of course, we'd be glad of the company." Marcus said. Jacob didn't come further in, and kept his eyes on me, waiting for my approval.
"Come in, pet."
Jacob grinned and walked into the library, shutting the door behind him.
"It's nice to see you Jacob." Marcus said, pulling my pet in for a hug. Jacob hugged him back and mumbled a greeting into his chest.
When Jacob pulled away I motioned for him to come to me. I rose to meet him, but instead of hugging him, I pulled his face to mine and kissed him. He moaned with surprise and pleasure into the kiss. I surprised myself with how tender I was being, especially in front of Marcus. My lips moved gently against his and my tongue licked at his lips, but I didn't force it past. My hands travelled in his hair, running through the light blonde locks. It was thirty seconds before I released him.
Marcus looked at me with one eyebrow raised.
"I feel like watching my best friend and his little brother kiss should make me uncomfortable, but it really doesn't." He said, sitting in his chair. "It's actually kind of hot."
I felt Jacob's cheeks flush in my hands and he buried his nose against my chest. He was being very physically needy, but I didn't mind. His desperation turned me on, he was more willing to take harsher punishments.
"I can't imagine how hot it was the other night- with all those vampires using him." Marcus said, meeting my eyes. I smirked.
Jacob's grip on me tightened and I knew he was embarrassed. Perhaps he was even a little nervous.
"Don't be ashamed Jacob." I said, running my hand down his back. It was wonderful watching him be so submissive. It was even more wonderful knowing that he had given himself completely over to me, allowed me to use him, allowed my friends to use him-under my supervision of course.
I own him.
I released him and sat down in my chair again. Jacob stood staring at me for a few seconds. He looked so nervous, he was caving in on himself, his eyes were downcast.
"May I sit on your lap?" He asked quietly. I could tell he was nervous to be saying this in front of Marcus. He could hardly handle humiliation in front of only me, in front of others...
"Of course. But I need you to do something for me first." I said. Jacob's eyebrows raised and he licked his lips.
"What do you want me to do, Master?" He asked quietly. I smiled, he
is
catching on.
