*Benton Fraser straightened the tablecloth, then lit a kitchen candle jar
and placed it in the center. He checked his supply of gourmet coffee, then
took out a loaf of bread and a cutting board and a knife. Dief watched all
these ministrations and yawned from his place by the refrigerator door. 

Benny buttoned an undone button on his flannel shirt and tied his
sneaker's laces. He took a deep breath, glancing at the clock, then went
back to checking the coffee can. 

Ten minutes later he was sitting in a chair at the kitchen table,
alternating between glancing out the window and at the clock. His back
straightened as he heard a familiar motor purr down the street, the sound
cutting off close to the building, and he smiled. Seconds later he heard
equally-familiar footsteps coming up the stairs and down the hall. The
apartment door burst open and Ray Vecchio breezed in. 

"Hiya, Benny. Sorry I'm a little late, but Ma acted like I was going away
to summer camp or something and loaded me down with food." 

"That's perfectly fine, Ray." 

Ray smiled and gave his lover a quick kiss, then proceeded to whirl like
light and laughter around the small kitchen as he unloaded the goodies
from home. He put plastic bowls into the refrigerator and cupboards, then
grabbed the coffee can and emptied it into the pot. 

"So, Benny, how was it walking home today? Sorry I couldn't give you my
usual ride." 

"That's perfectly..." 

"...fine, I know." Ray grinned over his shoulder and Benny felt a flutter
in his chest. Ray returned his attention to the coffeepot. "Y'know, Benny,
you've got to stop saying everything's 'fine' and complain once in
awhile." 

"Yes, Ray." 

Benny was so happy that he thought he might burst from the joy of it all.
His heart thumped as he watched Ray move about the kitchen. Oh, how he
loved the man's grace and style! That Armani suited him well. 

Ray soon had dinner going while Benny helped, and they sat down to eat the
delicious meal that Rosa Vecchio had cooked. Ray talked animatedly about
his latest case, waving his fork around since he *had* to talk with his
hands. It was one of the many things that Benny loved about him. 

He frowned slightly as the flame from the candle jar wavered. The walls
seemed to fade in his peripheral vision, an odd state similar to
half-waking, half-sleeping, but he rubbed his eyes and felt better. He had
simply been staring at a computer screen too long all day. That probably
accounted for the soreness of his body as well. He was more accustomed to
strenous physical activity instead of sitting at a desk all day. 

They quickly cleaned up after dinner and Ray complained about going down
the hall to use the communal bathroom. Benny smiled to himself. He
stretched contentedly on the couch, pleasantly full and intoxicated with
Ray's scent. As he leaned back against the couch, he thought once again of
how lucky he was to be here in this time and place with this man. It was
nothing short of miraculous that he had come to Chicago to find his
father's murderer and find Ray Vecchio as well. 

He closed his eyes. He had been bound and determined to search for his
father's killer and had made that plain to Gerard while they toasted his
father in that bar after the funeral. He felt a little foolish as he
realized that he didn't remember much of the rest of the evening. He was
glad that Ray was nearly as much of a teetotaler as he was. The beer he
had drunk that night had been too much for him. His next clear memory was
his journey to Chicago on Air Canada, as surreal has that had seemed. 

The apartment lit up at his lover's return. Benny simply smiled while Ray
ranted. 

"Jeez, Benny, if you ever get outta this ratrap..." 

"...it'll be with you at my side, Ray." 

Ray quieted and looked at his lover. He suddenly smiled and took Benny's
face in his hands, gently kissing him. Benny happily reciprocated, and
they had a little make-out session. 

Benny sighed and laid his head on Ray's shoulder. It was a happy sigh, and
Ray stroked his hair. 

"I love you, Benny." 

"I love you, too, Ray." Benny could smell the unique scent of the man:
Armani cologne, a subtle musk that was purely natural, and clean soap. Ray
was fastidious, a city man's way that Benny liked. "You're a leader of
men, Ray." 

"Yeah?" Ray sounded amused. "Bet Welsh would have something to say about
that." 

"No, I mean it. You will be a fine Lieutenaut yourself someday." 

Ray sighed. "Sometimes, Benny, me making Lieutenaut seems about as likely
as me taking Frankie Zuko's place on the South Side." 

Benny gently kissed him. "You will be successful, Ray. You always are." He
looked adoringly at his lover. "You will command men with the force of
your personality." 

Ray chuckled. "You've got quite an imagination, Benny." 

"Me?" He blinked. "I don't have much imagination, Ray." 

"Sure you do. You probably spun all kinds of interesting scenarios when
you were up in the frozen North during those assignments when you were
alone." 

"I...I suppose..." 

"I know so." 

Benny considered, then his eyes twinkled. "This I do know. I'm yours." 

"Well, of course," Ray said in a tone that indicated that it was a given.
"My possession, Bennyluv." 

A little thrill went through the Mountie. Yes, yes! Possessed by this man
with the incredible grace and the beautiful emerald eyes. It was a dream
come true. 

"Ray?" 

"Yeah, Benny?" 

"Make love to me?" 

Amused affection tinged Ray's voice. "Sure, Benny." 

They started the gentle kisses again, then Ray stroked his lover's bare
forearms, unbuttoning his shirt and lightly tonguing his nipples. Benny
felt the tingles skitter through his body. He stroked Ray's satin skin and
shivered as Ray nipped his neck. The Italian rained kisses upon his face
and throat, then lavished attention to his chest. Benny was utterly
captivated, his head thrown back and his eyes closed. He absorbed the
aroused scent of his lover and whimpered as he was kissed on the lips,
gentle and loving. 

"Bedroom," Ray whispered in his ear, and he obeyed, trembling as Ray led
him to the cot. He was gently pushed down onto his back and watched as Ray
removed his own shirt and pants, his arousal evident in his shorts. Benny
swallowed as the underwear was removed, revealing the lightly bobbing
cock. He was mesmerized by it as Ray came closer, a snake charmer with the
magic of possession ready to eat Benny alive. 

Or to have him eat. Ray's cock slid easily into his mouth, Benny moaning
as he sucked, his body shaking with desire. Ray thrust harder, filling him
with his passion. Benny grasped slender thighs and sucked with all the
hungry need of his body. He looked up and saw the green eyes glowing, and
he was rewarded with healthy cream. 

But Ray was not finished. He kissed his lover from head-to-toe after
divesting him of the rest of his clothes, worshipping every part of his
body. Ray flicked out his tongue, tasting Benny's cock. Benny groaned and
shifted his hips, jerking as his cock was swallowed. He watched Ray's head
bob as he sucked, and it wasn't long before he was giving Ray his seed. 

They lay in each other's arms in the afterglow, and Benny said, "Ray?" 

"Yeah, Benny?" 

"You're so gentle and loving with me." 

"It's easy to be gentle and loving with you, Benny." 

"But...I have never felt so treasured." 

"You should. You're a possession worth treasuring." 

Benny felt a twinge of unease. He shook it off. Why shouldn't Ray consider
him a possession? He was Ray's, body and soul. Owned and treasured. He
fell asleep, feeling safe...

He awoke slowly, the familiar scent of the body beside him filling him
with joy. He opened his eyes with a smile. 

The smile faded as his eyes took in the room: flocked wallpaper, heavy
draperies, and a big, luxurious bed. Reality flooded in on him with
dawning horror. The body beside him stirred and turned to face him. 

"Well, you're up." A laugh. "So am I." A insistent cock twitched against
Benny's thigh. 

Tears began to trickle down his cheeks as he looked into the cold, jade
eyes of the man who had held him captive for months since his father's
murder. Wrists raw from restraints hurt as his aching and bruised body was
casually turned over and savagely taken by his captor. 

He used the body of Armando Langostini, aka the Bookman, but the man he
had created and named Ray Vecchio in his dreams was just a fantasy. 

And Armando Langostini used his body as often as he wanted in reality.*
