What the hell had he gotten himself into. Taking on the burden of the man kneeling at his feet, it was the other side of insane.<br>
<br>And yet he could no sooner have sent this fragile man clinging to his leg as if it were an anchor away if he'd been offered his dearest dream.<br><br>"Will you talk with me, Alex?" Skinner asked, feeling the shudder that ran through Krycek at the question. <br>
<br>"As you wish, sir." Krycek murmured.<br><br>Skinner sighed, running his fingers hrough the other man's hair. "I get the feeling you are afraid of me." He felt the man stiffen against his leg and smiled as the lie left Alex' lips<br>
<br>"Oh, no, master." His protest held the brittle quality of terror. "Master has all rights over this one, body and soul."<br><br>"Don't call yourself this one." Walter commanded. "Use I or me. You are not a piece of property."<br>
<br>Alex clung tighter, yet somehow managed to cringe away at the same time. "This one...I...But....Master, I am property. I am thrall. Your thrall."<br><br>"And if you were free?"<br><br>Krycek cried out a desperate protest, as if he'd been struck a killing blow, curling in on himself and whimpering from the depths of his soul.<br>
<br>Skinner bolted out of his chair, wrapping his arms around the tramatized young man, stroking slow circles against the trembling back and murmuring gentle nonsense words until Krycek quieted.<br><br>"Hey, what was that all about, boy?" Skinner coaxed.<br>
<br>Krycek shuddered, shaking his head against Skinner's chest. "Don't send me away, master. I...Know I'm not trained for private use but ...my other masters said I'm smart...a fast learner. I'll be good. Do you proud. Just please..please.. don't put me out."<br>
<br>"Alright. It's alright, Alex." he cupped Krycek's chin, tipping his head so their eyes met. "Trust me, Alex. Whatever I do, it will be in your best interest. After we discuss it, okay?" <br>
<br>A shadow crossed Krycek's lean features. He drew a ragged breath and lowered his eyes, his emotions shutting down...stuffed brutally down by a calm that sent a shiver down Skinner's spine. If Walter had wondered where the man on the DVD had gone, he now knew that man was back.....with a vengence<br>
