A few hours had passed, since the brunette slayer's path of destruction had begun, and since escaping from the warehouse. It was now engulfed in flames, but not before Faith had grabbed a small bag of her remaining possessions from inside. Pouring gasoline all throughout the warehouse, she grabbed a box of nearby matches, taking one last look at Angelo's lifeless body, smashing his skull with the sole of her biker boot. Lighting the entire box, she tossed it in and ran out.

At present Faith was sitting in a nearby field less than a mile away. Taking a deep inhale of the cigarette that rested on her bottom lip, chocolate brown eyes with a hint of orange and red as she watched the building burn to the ground eventually only leaving an empty shell of the interior. The dark slayer studied her surroundings focused on her next and only destination in mind however her full strength remained to be seen. She reached into the bag rested between her legs pulling out a small bag of pink tablets tilting her head as she studied the circular pills before placing one on the back of her tongue. As the tablet melted the slayer's mind focused easier as she listened to her surroundings, her eyes bolted towards the left of the warehouse where it seems vehicles were kept. However, the fire had further spread too rapidly to the surrounding area of the building she decided not to risk her life any further and made her way down an abandoned road that would soon lead her to the next town.

Hours later and the sun was soon beginning to set back in the beautiful district of San Polo. The blonde slayer's eyes were focused on the large plasma screen above her mantelpiece listening to the latest news channel as she poured herself another drink. As she took a sip of the Cristal her green eyes shot up towards the screen, grabbing at the remote and turning up the volume she listened more closely.

"The warehouse was burnt out and firefighters called to the scene found a number of male victims burnt to death, all unfortunately unrecognisable."

The blonde narrowed her eyes at the screen as the reporter continued broadcasting the story.

"It is thought the same suspect stole a vehicle from a local resident who was on his way home and was later beaten to death...

At the corner of her eye, Buffy noticed a dark shadow entering the apartment causing her to react a little too hasty as she grabbed a crossbow previously displayed on the wall pointing it towards the door fully loaded. The figure put his hands up and stepped closer.

"Now Now ...I thought we got over the whole killing each other thing years ago!"

Buffy breathed a sigh of relief as the thought to be instructor just turned out to be Spike. "Spike? What are you doing here ?" Buffy snapped.

He smirked slightly before handing her a small bag of shopping. "Thought you could do with a few essentials and ..." Spike paused nodding towards the TV. "...Ah..you heard already. Well, it seems all the men killed were working for the Italian Mafia so they must have royally pissed someone off huh?"

Buffy nodded softly before emptying the small bag her lover had kindly organised. A grin appeared on her face as she noticed cookie dough ice cream, a bottle of fine Cristal and a small black box containing a pair of 18-carat white gold studs. "Spike...baby...what is all this? These must have cost a fortune and I know... I know you're working for me and money isn't an issue but..."

She was soon cut off as Spike pulled her into his embrace his lips meeting hers. "Has anyone ever told you that you talk too much Summers?" The blonde slayer blushed slightly as she melted into his embrace, kitty bumping his chin as she inhaled the warm smell of aftershave he seemed to be coated in.

She looked back at the bag and then to the vampire's gaze. "And has anyone told you a woman knows when her man is trying to seduce her?" she raised her eyebrows towards him shaking her head slightly. "So cliché" she continued.

Spike grinned slightly as he took a firmer grip of her waist causing the slayer to gasp as his lips made contact once again making the slayer melt into his arms like pudding before picking her up, carrying her towards the bedroom and laying her on the bed. Buffy's breathing became laboured as the couple pulled away at the layers of clothing between them until they both lay bare. The blonde's legs wrapped around the soulful vampires back, one hand on his shoulder blade as the other gripped at the sheets beneath her as Spike thrust himself inside of her, she groaned out to the room as she submitted to the vampire's authority as he grabbed both of her wrists pinning them above her head while his teeth bared into her neck and breasts just enough so to not break her skin.

Eventually he allowed for her hands wrists to be freed in which she moved her grip to his shoulder blades digging her nails into his flesh, Spike growled and buried his head into the slayers neck as he continued to pound hard into the willing slayer, the blonde gripped harder to her lover lowering her touch to his hips pushing in sync as the thrusts became deeper and harder. "God yes...Buffy" he growled into the slayer's ear as the blonde turned the tables and pushed him back to the opposite side of the bed before baring her hip forward and forcing his hard cock deep of her inner walls rocking herself back and forth, her nails clawing at his chest as a large wave of ecstasy took over both of them.
Groans echoed around the four walls of the room and eventually the apartment with the current news still blurring out of the speakers now showing a sketch of what seemed to resemble the suspect, above it sat the words "Mafia Massacre".

Unknown to the loved up couple the news was not the only thing they had to worry about as standing across the other end of the street, behind a thick cloud of cigarette smoke a pair of dark brown eyes watched into Buffy's bedroom window.
