Summary: For the sunday100 LJ community, the Caleb fic I've been wanting to read.

 

The familiar female face—the face of the Slayer—faded away. Caleb watched, determined to keep his eyes open.

He felt the heat—desire, greed, and power—the pure energy of the First flowing through him, and it felt good. Or, to be more accurate, it felt bad: huge, undivided, destructive, death filled bad. Evil.

As it came, it should have torn and bruised him, but he gave his soul to it for safety, and the scream he gave was silent, a thing of desire rather than pain—though, in the high of the ecstasy, the two merged to one.
