------------------------------------------------------------------------

Colin didn\'t stir when the door opened. He was still slee hea heavily and peacefully.

Remus, on the other hand, hadn\'t taken his eyes from the door. When it slowly and Lucius Malfoy finally stepped into the room, his eyes locked onto the other man\'s. Not the wisest move, potential challenging, and he forced himself to look away. He wasn\'t fast enough.

Lucius walked into the room and shut the door, all done nearly silently. Colin didn\'t stir, and Remus stayed resolutely still as Malfoy approached with all the predatory grace of a large cat--or a particularity large and slow snake. He kept his eyes focused on Lucius but didn\'t meet his eyes again, focusing instead on his chin.

\"Did you like your new pet, Remus?\"

Remus looked up in surprise. The man never referred to him by name, it was always the werewolf, or lycan, or pet, or-- anything but his name. He surely hoped to hell the man hadn\'t felt compelled to acquire Colin for his benefit. Of course, if he had at least Colin wasn\'t killed but-- Hell.

\"Of course,\" Lucius continued without waiting for a response, \"I\'ll be enjoying him, but I thought a little responsibility might be good for you. You\'ve been -- restless lately.\"

The threat was clear, as was the malus aus amusement. Colin was as good as a hostage, designed to keep Remus in line, and, in turn, for Remus to keep in line. Lucius understood his protective instincts all too well and ,Slytherin that he was, had found a way to exploit them.

\"Aren\'t you going to thank me, Remus?\" The older man asked with beguiling and misleading civility.

\"Thank you.\" He said quietly; quietly to hide the underlying rage at the situation.

\"Thank you, what?\"

He had to grit his teeth. \"Thank you, Master.\"

\"Better. See that you don\'t forget it.\" The last was delivered as he paced closer to Colin and one pale hand fisted into Colin\'s hair and pulled his face up, roughly. Colin woke with a snarl and immediately dug both small hands into the wrist holding him.

\"Hm. Wild little thing aren\'t?\" ?\" Lucius said casually. He twisted his hand, and tightened his grip, and back handed him almost gently; gently for Lucius Malfoy at any rate. The force was still enough for a sickening **CRACK** to echo in the silence and for Remus to wince. \"Well, Wolf, are you going to do something,
or did you want me to? He is, after all, your responsibility.\"

Remus didn\'t wait to be told twice. He doubted he would be told twice. At this point he was more concerned with Colin not being harmed more than necessary, or killed, to be overly concerned with what was left of his pride. He didn\'t have a whole lot left anyway.

Colin was glaring definitely up at Lucius, Malfoy watching Remus expectantly. Remus wrapped both hands around Colin\'s wrists and leaned forward and said, very softly, \"Let go, Colin.\" Of course it accomplished nothing, but Remus was able to pry Colin\'s hands off Lucius.

\"Thank you.\" Lucius\'s tone and smile were disingenuine, but he did let go of Colin\'s hair before he utterly dismissed his presence. \"Do you think, Wolf, that you could conceivably tame the hell cat, or shall I simply put him down and save you the effort?\" His smirk was still firmly in place as he regarded Remus holding the clearly groggy and angry boy.

\"I\'m quite sure,\" Remus replied neutrally, \"that I can manage.\"

\"Of course you are.\" Lucius walked away from them, utterly confident of his dominance and control. More than ever, Remus thought, as Lucius now held not only his life, but Colin\'s. Lucius could have killed Remus and Remus wouldn\'t\' have protested--much, but Colin was an entirely different matter. Then again Lucius had always gotten off as much on mind games as sexual ones.

Lucius casually undressed, unfastening the high collared robe, letting it fall to his feet. He didn\'t pick it up, or show any awareness that it had fallen. A boy who had always been catered to, turned into a man who was still a spoiled brat, Remus thought derisively, as he watched Malfoy continue to undress.

Knowing that he was here for Colin, and not himself, brought a part of him to life that he\'d thought long dead. A desire to protect and shelter, a desire to fight and a hatred of Malfoy and his \'Lord\'. No doubt that was what Lucius had intended when he brought a young Gryffindor in. Bored Remus\'s complacence, he\'d done something about it.

Remus continued to hold Colin\'s wrists in a gentle, but unbreakable grip. \"You need to calm down,\" he said quietly. He was relieved when Colin, at least, stopped struggling actively. He was, however, breathing hard, pulse racing under Remus\'s fingers, tfiedfied again.

Lucius still hadn\'t turned back to face them when he began to speak again. He sounded friendly, even conversational. \"You\'re quite sure you can manage him? Make sure he behaves himself?\"

\"Yes.\" No other answer was possible. Remus honestly had no idea if Colin would do anything but fight Lucius like a wild thing. He could only hope this conversation would make it clear to Colin that if he wanted to live it was a Very Bad Idea.

\"I\'m less certain of my own... abilities. He seems rather violent. Perhaps you should.... remain to make sure he cooperates.\"

\"Remain,\" he echoed.

\"Yes, Wolf. Even you, surely are capable of understanding basic human speech. Though perhaps you need it simplified. Stay. \"

\"I understood.\"

\"Good boy,\" Lucius said with a saccharine sweet tone that made Lupin\'s metaphorical hackles raise.

At least, it seemed the exchange had calmed Colin a bit. He\'d become utterly passive and closed his eyes during some point. Stay? Remus didn\'t want to stay and watch this child get raped by Lucius Malfoy. Then if he couldn\'t stop it, and he knew he couldn\'t, perhaps it was the better alternative. Colin just might stay relaxed enough to live through the experience if Remus stayed.

That didn\'t mean Remus liked it.

Remus started to get out of the bed but was stopped by a very cold, very firm. \"Where do you think you\'re going?\"

He opened his mouth to reply but shut it again. \"No where.\" Lucius quirked his eyebrow and he added what he hoped was a convincing, \"Master.\" The arrogant blonde seemed satisfied as he walked over to the bed and Remus carefully didn\'t look at him, at least directly, or tense.

He showed nothing but sheer submission, bothboth their survival.

Lucius smirked, and Remus pretended not to notice. When Malfoy told him to pick Colin up and hold him he had to quirk an eyebrow. He just didn\'t understand the instructions--they weren\'t that clear. In response Lucius reached over Colin and fisted a hand in Remus\' hair and hauled him up to his knees so he could slap him--hard. He tasted copper and his vision dimmed for a moment. If he hadn\'t been Lycan he would have passed out. As it was, he was able to simply swallow the blood down and wait for his vision to clear.

Unfortunately, Colin wasn\'t aware of that fact. Remus heard the gasp and soft growl and immediately pushed Colin down to the bed with one hand and held him there hard, glancing up briefly at Lucius. \"I apologize, master. I didn\'t understand your wishes. \"

Lucius nodded slowly and released him. Remus could all but feel Colin\'s absolute confusion and anger but didn\'t release him. \"Thank you,\" he said softly, eyes down to focus on Creevy, trying with all his might to telepathically convey that he needed to stop if he wanted to live, and that he was okay.

It seemed partially successful at best, but at least Colin settled for lying back and glaring just to the left of Lucius. It seemed he was instinctively avoiding Malfoy\'s eyes. Not out of the submission Lucius would read into the act, but sheer distaste and anger. Remus didn\'t care why. That he waing ing it at all was good enough for him.

\"Good. Now. Let us try again, with smaller words, perhaps. You will kneel with your back against the headboard.\" He paused and waited for Remus to comply before making a two fingered gesture for Remus to pull Colin up and waited while that was carried out. Remus was relieved Colin wasn\'t actively fighting him.

Remus could tell the boy was angry and afraid, as well as resented being talked about as though he weren\reseresent. The scent of emotion rolling off him was cloudy with drugs and complex, but Remus had had a life time to analyze such things.

Get used to it

They wound up with Colin kneeling and facing him, looking up him with wide, angry and bewildered, blue eyes. All Remus could do was meet his gaze. He wouldn\'t allow himself to flinch away. He did take some satisfaction in the fact that his grip on Colin was loose. Colin wasn\'t trying to get away from him. He wasn\'t exactly holding on to him either, but he seemed resigned--and disappointed-- than anything else. Resigned to what was about to happen to him, disappointed that someone he had trusted was just going to let it.

The loose grip tightened on Remus when the mattress dipped. Remus avoided looking at Lucius when he crawled onto the bed behind Colin. He wasn\'t looking when Lucius pulled Colin\'s knees further back, but the change in position and the sudden necessity to support all of Colin\'s weight made it very apparent.

Colin slid his hands down Remus\'s torso, and Remus accommodated him, forearms flat and palms turned up to grip just below Colin\'s elbows before he heard the light slap and glanced up. Lucius arched an eyebrow and smirked when Colin flinched, and repeated the motion, smacking the inside of his thigh.

Remus looked away and turned his attention to Colin. The boy\'s grip had tightened down on him, his breathing fast an irregular. All of his muscles were strung tight with the unease of the positioning, and the utter vulnerability.

\"Try to relax,\" he murmured very softly.

He heard Lucius snort in reply, but fortunately he didn\'t seem overly concerned with much of anything. In fact he was rather pleased with himself, if the smug smirk and self satisfied scent of arousal were accurate. No doubt getting off on Remus\' distress and discomfort at being so helpless as much as Colin\'s fear. Raping Colin physically and, since Remus had become so hardened to the physical act, hurting him in the way he knew would cause him pain.

\"Hm.\"

Remus glanced up at the soft sound and saw the blow land directly on Colin\'s bottom, on top of what was visible of that awful-- thing and shove it further into him. Colin lurched forward and rested his forehead against Remus\' shoulder and went still Rem Remus continued to watch unobtrusively through the fall of his hair as Lucius gripped the base of the plug and with a twist pulled it abruptly free, smirking at Colin\'s startled, strangled, yelp of surprise When Lucius abruptly positioned himself and thrust forward the soft sound of surprise turned sharp and pained. The smirk turned into a malicious grin at the sound.

Remus could feel tears trickling into the fabric of his shirt, soaking it. The force ofius\ius\'s thrusts started out fairly mild, at least for him, but quickly grew in force and intensity. Colin tried, and failed, to stay silent, but as the onslaught became more and more brutal he was whimpering almost constantly. His nails broke through the skin of Remus\' forearms.

All Remus could do was brace him as best he could, hold on and wait for it to be over. Lucius\'s heavy breathing, and Colin\'s strangled sobs seemed deafening. He thought it was never going to end.
Bu
But of course it did. Thankfully, blessedly and mercifully, it did end.

Lucius snarled as the strokes became harder and more erratic and he finally froze into place, eyes locked not on Colin but on Remus. His eyes seemed almost demoas has he looked at Remus. His hands holding Colin back against him with enough force that Remus could already see purple bruises spreading under his fingertips. That Colin wasn\'t struggling or fighting him made seem all the more sadistic.

Finally he pulled out of Colin\'s body with a mocking smile, still watching Remus and ignoring Colin utterly. Remus held his gaze for a moment then pulled Colin a bit closer, unconsciously protective. Lucius moved around the room getting dressed. Colin nuzzled into him, shaking hard and breathing harder.

Remus knew he\'d do anything to make it better for Colin. Anything to keep him alive, to keep him sane, to protect him.

Which of course was why he was here at all.

One more chain, one more leash, one more way to control and torture him.

\"Aren\'t you going to thank me, Remus?\" Lucius asked. The infuriating smile still firmly in place.

Remus was silent until he saw Lucius shift, the slightest tightening of muscles that warned that he was preparing to strike.

\"Thank you, Master.\"
