When he attends an anonymous killer and potential victim networking event, he expects to have a few drinks and watch other baser predators pick off the easy targets before returning to the hunt for The Next One. The last thing Jared is prepared for is Jensen. Written for SPN Kink Bingo 2017. Square filled: Cannibalism. Notes I could not possibly over-warn for this fic. If you don’t already know that you enjoy sexualized body horror, I can virtually guarantee that this isn’t a fic for you. This is a mutilation and gore fic and every bit of it is sexualized and/or romanticized. This includes past traumatic experiences and references to real life homicides, including the murder of a young child. This fic is disgusting and disturbing and is approached in a manner fully intended to elicit a sexual response. It is the definition of “graphic.” If you’re not enthusiastically on board with that, please choose other reading material. Also there are plenty of medical vagaries and probably inaccuracies—a fact that I’ve had to accept in order to enjoy writing this fic and that you may have to overlook in order to enjoy reading it. Special thanks to Violet for beta reading this on such short notice and for being the one person I could truly be certain would appreciate this for what it is <3 See the end of the work for more notes Jared’s not really expecting to encounter The Next One here. Most of the potential victims who show up to these matchmaking events are women and most of those women are hookers or junkies or both. Those women almost always find a man here because most of the men like Jared are looking for that specific flavor of vulnerability, that rotted femininity. Jared knows because all his father’s victims fit the same profile: young and aging poorly from turning tricks and getting high. Jared’s standards are both different and higher. But he was offered a free admission tonight and he has been in the market for an irritatingly long time. Tonight’s gathering is in a refurbished warehouse, falling into ruins on the outside and styled like a trendy New York loft on the inside. Jared settles in at the open bar, reasoning that he may as well have a couple drinks and people watch for an hour before taking the long way home so he can scout out potential Child Brides on the local college campus. Jared’s halfway through his second bourbon when he walks in and, Christ, whatever Jared expected to find here, it sure as shit wasn’t him. The boy is a battered angel with really truly green eyes shining bright through a mottled bruise that seems too big for his thin face. He’s got lips Jared would eat like candy, dusted with freckles like flecks of spun sugar. And he wants to be here, Jared can tell. The boy isn’t some desperate, suicidal addict begging to get out from under a debt or a pimp or a father. Jared has the wait staff pull him aside for an interview immediately. The interview rooms in the warehouse are comfortable, intimate. Jared settles into a plush armchair in front of a floor-to-ceiling one-way mirror. There are speakers on either side of the mirror to catch what’s said on the other side. It’s like speaking to the boy with a mask on, like something at the start of a fairy tale. One of those bloody, eerie, nightmare-imparting Old World fairy tales. There’s a mediator in the room with the boy, a bud in her ear so she can ask Jared’s questions without revealing his identity. Jared hates that the mediator is a woman, that this boy will first hear Jared’s thoughts in a woman’s voice, but the boy is the only factor that really matters. He’s lithe, tiny really. He doesn’t look any older than fifteen, but if he is fifteen, he’s small for his age like his growth was stunted somehow. He’s dressed in unremarkable clothes that were probably passed down from someone older since none of the worn out spots line up with the boy’s body lines. His eyes are positively luminous above his slightly gaunt cheeks. He’s looking right at the mirror even though he can’t see Jared like he’s imagining the person behind it. “Can I ask your name?” Jared doesn’t like the feminine echo of his own voice any more than he likes the idea of this boy knowing nothing else, but he ignores the mediatory, focused entirely on the boy before him. “Jensen,” the boy says, his voice accented with a charming sort of twang. “Jensen,” Jared says, tasting the name and finding it as sweet as the boy in front of him. “How old are you, Jensen?” “Seventeen.” So Jared was wrong about his age, but definitely not about something inhibiting Jensen’s growth, keeping him delicate and pubescent. “Tell me, Jensen, who’s the first person who hurt you?” Jensen shifts at that, sucks at his fat bottom lip. “My daddy.” Jared’s not exactly surprised. Most of his Child Brides are too pretty for their fathers’ likings. Considering Jensen’s accent, Jared can only imagine the trouble a good ol’ Southern boy would have trying to raise this beautiful, not- long-for-this-world waif. “What did he do to you?” The mediator repeats the question, but not nearly fast enough. Jared’s already frustrated with the barrier between them and itching to take Jensen as his own. The mediator is just a reminder that he hasn’t sealed the deal yet, that they’re courting each other, not engaged, and that someone else could take Jensen home still. But with the way that Jensen squirms like he’s chubbing up in his hand-me-down jeans as he answers, there’s no way Jared is letting this one go. “Smacked me around. He liked to use his belt on me bare, liked to aim for my balls.” “When was the first time?” “Four. Well, the first time I remember. I have hospital records from before then though. He broke my arm before I learned to walk.” “When was the last time he hurt you?” “Last week at Sunday dinner. Called me a faggot and ripped out a patch of my hair.” Jensen turns so Jared can see the scabbed over spot on his scalp. “Who gave you the shiner? Your daddy?” “My boyfriend. Well, my ex-boyfriend. He broke in so he could fuck me one last time. He told me he wanted to kill me while he was unloading inside me.” “Tell me how that felt.” Only the first of many husband-demands Jared wants to make of this boy. “Best sex we ever had.” Jared grins and wishes the boy could see his top-of-the-food-chain smile. Jensen’s his favorite wet dream cooked bloody and served on a fucking silver platter. “Are they the only two who’ve hurt you like that?” Jensen honest-to-god laughs, genuine and so crystal clear that Jared feels it in his stomach. “Hell no. Seems like I’ve been hurting my whole life. When it wasn’t my daddy, it was my uncle or my best friend’s dad or my PE coach or the trophy wife next door. People see me and want to hurt me.” Jared understands the urge. “Is that why you’re here?” Jensen shrugs, fiddling with a hole near the hem of his shirt. “You running away from your old man? Your new man?” “No,” Jensen is adamant. “Running toward someone.” Jared gets a little thrill from that, a shiver that he feels at the back of his neck and the base of his cock. Jensen somehow looks right at Jared through the mirror and finishes his thought, “Maybe running toward you.” Jared swallows. He’s in love. He wants this boy as his Child Bride so much be can already taste those lips baked with care and served up hot. “What kind of arrangement are you looking for, Jensen? You need a settlement for someone? You just suicidal because your daddy bad touched you?” “I want to be a murder victim,” Jensen murmurs, eyes unwavering. “You dream of being a murder victim?” Jared asks, but it’s more of a declaration of adoration. “Always. It’s all I ever wanted. One of those murder victims who looks beautiful in their before picture and even prettier after.” “Who are your favorites?” Jared has to know. “Elizabeth Short,” Jensen says immediately, emphatically. Jared can picture Jensen’s cherry-on-top-dessert mouth split into a Glasgow smile, body cut right through the belly and spine to show all his lovely organs in their pelvic cradle. Jared smiles soft, speaks pillow-talk gentle. The mediator doesn’t get the tone right, but Jared thinks maybe Jensen can sense him even through the glass. “Ah, Betty. She’s one of my favorites too. Had a picture of her in my wallet in the clear wife pocket until I had pictures of my own Child Brides.” Jared literally bites at the tip of his tongue. He hadn’t meant to use the endearment, to give away so much of himself in this interview, but he can’t bring himself to regret it with the way Jensen visibly perks up and pinks up at the sound of it. “Really?” Jensen sounds thrilled, titillated at the idea that they share this. “I printed off her autopsy pictures at the library and kept them under my mattress. The first time I got off it was looking inside her and imagining what it feels like to be opened up like that.” “Fuck,” Jared breathes and part of him wishes he could tell the mediator not to repeat him and the other part wishes the mediator could fully represent the sound and the feeling of the expletive. “Who else? Anyone else?” Jared has to know what made baby Jensen wet and scared under his little boy sheets, everything that turned him into this vision in black and blue and green. “Carole Voyce,” Jensen admits, squirming and biting his lip, stiffy visible in his pants. “Tell me about her.” “She was just four in 1957 when a boy rode by on his bike and picked her up.” “What did he do to her?” Jensen gets quiet like he can’t believe he’s about to talk to someone about his darling idol, someone who might understand, especially in this context where he’s pushing down on his hard-on with the heel of his hand thinking that the man in front of him might do him just like Carole. “He took her out in the woods and put a tree branch up her so hard it ruptured organs. He’d already had two boys, but she was his only little girl.” “Did they catch him? The boy on the bike?” Jensen nods. “His name was Peter Woodcock.” “Woodcock?” The irony of the surname doesn’t escape Jared. “Yeah, but he doesn’t matter much. He got caught because people noticed it was weird he was riding a bike in January in Toronto.” “You like it better when we’re careful?” “Yes,” Jensen pauses, mouth open slightly like he’s trying to find the right words. “Otherwise people only remember y’all’s names—makes it too hard to find out more about the victims.” “You want people to remember you?” “Yes.” “Do you have any stipulations? Any requests? I need to know you’re . . . compatible with my process.” As if Jared could have any doubt of that while watching Jensen’s freckles become more and more pronounced as he flushes with arousal and self-consciousness. Innocent and so deliciously guilty. “I need . . . I want my body found. And identifiable. I want people to know my name and I want my mom not to keep looking for me.” Jared usually keeps his Child Brides to himself, but he can already picture Jensen laid out as a display of his finest work. Maybe in Jensen’s mama’s flower beds. “I can do that. Anything else? Anything you want me to do to you?” “I want you to fuck me like no one else who’s ever fucked me.” Jared chuckles. “Well that’s a given seeing as they had to stop short of killing you and I sure as shit don’t have that problem.” “I mean it,” Jensen takes a serious tone, gaze unwavering. “They just hurt me. I want you to . . .” “Change you? Remake you? Bend you to my will?” “Yes,” Jensen’s response is breathy, undeniably turned on. “Oh, Jens,” Jared purrs, surprised and delighted at how easily the nickname rolls off his tongue. “That’s my specialty.” “Yeah?” “I can make you mine down to your very soul. I’m very good at it, I’ve had a lot of practice.” Jared hears his own voice drop and again curses the distance created by the mediator, wanting his words to vibrate in Jensen’s bones. “And I’ve never made a mistake.” Jensen’s hips cant up like he’s already being fucked, like he can’t help it. “Does it make you excited knowing I’m so careful? That I’ve killed a dozen other boys like you, but that you’re my first Child Bride I’ll let anyone find? That everyone will remember you exactly the way I remake you?” “Yes,” comes out as a whine, desperate and wanting. Jensen’s practically panting, his hand twitching over his crotch. He definitely wants to go for it, wants to ask for it too, but he doesn’t know the rules yet because they haven’t set any rules yet. Jared takes pity on his tender sweetheart. “You can touch yourself as long as you tell me what you’re thinking about while you do it.” Jensen glances nervously at the mediator, hand frozen mid-action. “Ignore her. It’s just you and me here, Jens.” Jensen stays still for only a moment longer. Then he unzips and tucks the waistband of his boxer briefs under his balls. Jared’s first look at Jensen’s cock stops his breath. It’s pretty as the rest of him, uncut, a little on the thin side just like its owner, and perfectly pink. Even though Jared can’t tell in this lighting, he’s somehow certain Jensen’s dick is as sugar dusted as the rest of him. Jensen wraps a hand around himself, dragging down. Jared can see the faint sheen on the head when Jensen pulls the foreskin back. Jensen’s dick fits in his hand with just the demure- blush tip poking out. Jared’s hand would engulf it completely. “Tell me what you picture when you imagine me fucking you, baby.” The endearment feels even more natural than the nickname in Jared’s mouth, almost worryingly so. “You putting things inside me.” “What kinds of things?” “Your tongue, your dick, your whole fucking hand-” “A tree branch?” Jensen whimpers, the rhythm of his hand faltering. “If-If you wanted to. I’d take anything you wanted me to even if it cut me up into ribbons inside.” “What else, Jens? What are your best dreams made of?” “You splitting my face—shit!—opening up my cheeks with Elizabeth Short’s smile as, as a template. Use the extra space to get more in my mouth.” Jensen’s squeezing both his eyes and his cock hard like he’s trying to make it hurt and Jared loves him, wants to pull out his own dick and mirror Jensen’s movement because it feels right for them to share this and everything from now on, but he stays abstinent. “And after you’re Betty’s twin?” “You cutting me open, maybe just a little, but deep,” Jensen babbles. “Putting your cock in a hole you made in me. Making them do a rape kit on every hole you leave in me because they can’t tell where your dick’s been. Planting seeds all over my body.” “Want me to fill your belly up?” “Please, fuck. Please?” Jensen whines, getting close if his frantic strokes and trembling hands are any indicator. “I promise, baby.” Jensen comes, head falling back and fist moving over the head of his dick so the load spreads messy all over his lap. While Jensen is still twitching, Jared flips the switch on the wall next to him and the one-way mirror slides into the wall like a pocket door, allowing the two of them to truly meet for the first time. Jensen lets go of his cock, but doesn’t bother to wipe up. He’s still half-hard and gaping open-mouthed at Jared. Jared stands and walks toward his Child Bride, stopping only briefly to let the mediator know she can get the fuck out. “Hi, Jensen. I’m Jared.” “You didn’t tell me you were gorgeous. Or so . . . tall.” Jared’s wolf smile is even broader now that he knows Jensen can see it. He bends down and pins his unique hunter number to Jensen’s shirt like he’s sliding an engagement ring onto his finger. He wouldn’t want his Bride to stray on the way out of the warehouse. “You’re not so bad yourself,” He teases in a whisper, loving the goose flesh that appears on Jensen’s skin at the touch of his breath. He can smell Jensen now, the salt of sex and unwashed boy. He drinks in the scent. It will have to tide him over at least until he can pay his dues and make arrangements for their honeymoon venue. Jared could touch Jensen now, but he won’t. He’s a firm believer in waiting until marriage. Jared leaves Jensen with instructions for his preparation and a hard-on. ===============================================================================   Jensen arrives at their Honeymoon Home thirteen minutes early. It seems appropriate, fortuitous even, to have his baker’s dozen boy be so prompt. Jared’s assistant greets him. Jared watches them at a distance, noting that the green shirt Jensen’s wearing pales in comparison to his eyes and that the jeans are the same ones Jensen wore when they met, right down to the come stains. Jared’s loath to have yet another woman speak for him, but Marilyn used to work with Jared’s father. She manages the unfulfilling parts of Jared’s every relationship, checking that his Child Brides come prepared and travel without the notice of family members or law enforcement. When the honeymoon ends, she even handles the cleanup. Jensen must have followed instructions because Marilyn administers his first dose of morphine right away before showing herself out of the Honeymoon Home. Jared would prefer to keep his Brides completely sober and alert, but he knows from experience that even their commitment ceremony comes with the risk of death by shock. Jared observes Jensen quietly for a moment when they’re left alone. He’s truly a vision too breathtaking for this world. When Jared comes out of the shadows, he doesn’t give Jensen a warning. Jensen wouldn’t want one anyway. Instead, Jared swoops in and takes Jensen in a searing, violent kiss. The morphine’s turned Jensen’s pupils to tiny dots, but he looks just as disarmingly aroused and arousing as he did in their interview. They don’t speak yet. There’s no need. Jared simply begins to undress his Child Bride. Jensen stays still and pliant, only the shudder in his breathing giving away any nervousness. Jared removes Jensen’s clothes as though Jensen is a sleepy child, gentle and methodical. Shirt, shoes and socks, jeans, then boxer briefs. Jensen’s chest heaves like he’s run a marathon to get here. Jared admires the curve of Jensen’s ass, the delicate lines of his childlike chest and arms, the half-hard jut of his cock. Jensen is truly beautiful, the prettiest he’s ever had. Despite Jensen’s heavy breathing, there’s no hesitation when Jared cups Jensen’s face in his hands and leans in for a deep, wet kiss. Jensen is perfectly submissive, more than Jared would’ve dared hope from the brash, bold boy he interviewed. He doesn’t even flinch when Jared chews on his bottom lip until it splits, just moans faintly and swallows the blood that Jared tongues into his mouth. When Jared feels Jensen fully hard against him, he pulls back, enjoying Jensen’s whine, and strokes down Jensen’s sides before leading him by the hand into their suite. The rooms are decorated in all-white, the better to illustrate the progression of their passion over the next few hours or days if Jared’s patient and lucky. He seats Jensen in a comfortable, upholstered accent chair that sits above a basin, not unlike a soaking tub in a nail salon. Jensen’s legs spread apart as far as the arms of the chair allows, tempting Jared to touch his thighs, scarred from years of belt welts and bruised from the last encounter with his ex. Inviting Jared to worship his tight, bare balls and innocently freckled dick. Begging Jared to explore the peaks of his nipples and plains of his flat, too-thin stomach. Jared will claim every inch of Jensen, but he takes Jensen’s feet first. It’s an old habit, one born of his father’s insistence that Jared exercise every precaution when taking after his old man. The amputation started when he was still paranoid that his Child Brides would somehow find a way to leave him. Jensen never would, he knows, but after so many years, Jared loves the symbolism. Each Child Bride gives him their mobility, their only means of escape, and it’s more beautiful and binding than any vows they could recite, rings they could exchange, or legal documents they could sign. Once he makes that first alteration, a Child Bride belongs to him. Besides, Jared loves carrying his Child Bride over every threshold in their Honeymoon Home. He sends the feet to a friend in the death industry who preserves them for a niche market of fetishists and perverts. The income from his Child Brides' dowries alone means that Jared and his little wives never want for anything. The tourniquets are hospital grade but custom-covered in lace and blue ribbons, the perfect wedding garters. The garters suit Jensen’s pale legs and bird-bone delicate ankles. In addition to the garters, Jared secures straps around Jensen’s arms and legs to keep him still. Jared kneels before his Bride, evaluating for signs that the morphine’s completely kicked in—shallow breathing, pinprick pupils, glassy eyes. He hates to inhibit all the sensations Jensen will feel during their honeymoon, but he also knows from experience just how disappointing it is to lose a Bride to shock following the first amputation. He’ll save the blood that collects in the basin beneath the chair, have a glass after his time with Jensen ends, then use the rest to add richness and complexity to his cooking. Jensen moans when Jared tells him as much. The electric bone saw is quicker, less intimate than Jared would like, but he doesn’t want to risk Jensen losing too much blood during the removal itself. He wants his Bride conscious to enjoy every moment. Too many things happen at once when he starts cutting, a swath of blood spatter hitting him across the face, a stream of blood draining into the basic, the hum of the saw filling the entire suite. Jared expects Jensen to scream. After all, even with everything Jensen’s had done to him before, the boy has never surrendered a body part. But instead of a scream, Jensen gasps, an identical noise to his so-close-to- coming sounds that makes Jared’s cock jolt almost painfully. He doesn’t pause between severing one foot and beginning on the other. He likes bondage as much as the next man, but the tourniquets and straps are just perfunctory. Jared can’t wait to relish the fact that he doesn’t have to tie Jensen down for the rest of it. Jared notices as he reaches for the actual cautery to close the wounds that Jensen hasn’t gone fully soft in spite of the pain. Jared is a lucky man. The actual cautery is an outdated, but effective tool that’s perfect for Jared’s purposes. After all, he hardly needs to worry about potential tissue infection when his Child Bride may only live for a few hours or days more. Jensen may lose consciousness for a few moments when Jared seals the stumps of his ankles with a sizzle and unpleasant smell of burned flesh, but when his eyes flutter back open, Jensen smiles happily, dazedly. He sprawls as Jared unstraps him, runs his fingers down his own thighs like he’s feeling all the places the pain echoes in his legs. Like he likes it. When Jared surges up for a kiss, Jensen grins into it. “Am I yours now?” “Oh, Jens,” Jared purrs. “You’ve always been mine.” When he pictured taking Jensen to their marital bed in his head, Jared was carrying Jensen in traditional bridal style, but now that Jensen’s hard and wrapped around his waist, Jared can’t be bothered to conform to his own daydreams. They pale before reality anyway. Jared warned his Child Bride that any prep he wanted should be done before arriving at the Honeymoon Home. By the look and feel of Jensen’s body, he very intentionally didn’t do anything to make the consummation of their marriage any easier on himself except tuck a little lube into his hole. Jensen will probably bleed early, leaving popped-cherry stains all over their sheets. But Jensen’s also probably thought of just that and found the idea of appealing. It takes a couple tries to even get the head of Jared’s dick in Jensen, almost painfully tight once he does. The first time Jared pulls out, his dick is streaked a little pink already. Even though Jared knows Jensen’s been fucked plenty, he almost believes he’s taking Jensen’s virginity. That Jensen’s giving it to him, not his redneck daddy or his possessive ex. Without his feet, Jensen has no leverage, can’t lock his ankles around Jared’s back. He has to take everything Jared gives him like a good wife should. And Jared gives him plenty, tipping Jensen’s pelvis up so he can hammer in as deep as possible. Jared kisses and bites at Jensen’s neck, feeling almost like a normal couple for a moment. Like they fuck like this most Wednesday nights and every other Sunday afternoon. He imagines that Jensen feels it too somehow and realizes he’s never thought overmuch about how his Child Brides feel about him on their wedding night. Jensen chooses that moment to pull Jared away from his neck by the hair, so they can kiss and breathe together and gaze into each other’s eyes. Jensen looks up at him like Jared’s the world, dragging their foreheads together to just touch. “Where are you, baby?” Jensen’s voice is quiet but clearly a little hurt. Shit, Jared’s never been this pussy-whipped and he’s only just started to claim Jensen. “Right here, Jens. Right here.” Jared reaches down to touch where they’re connected. Jensen shivers. Jared feels a sudden urge to get deeper, force more of himself into Jensen’s body. He spits on his fingers, reasonably certain they won’t go in without some coaxing, then twists two in next to his cock. “I’m right here, baby, can’t you feel me?” “Yes, fuck.” Jensen ruts against Jared’s hand and pelvis. He’s at a disadvantage when it comes to controlling the situation, but that doesn’t seem to stop him. He needs and Jared delivers. When he comes, Jared uses his fingers to shove the load deeper inside, to catch and retrieve the drips that escape.  He lets his dick slide free, but doesn’t let up, adding a third and fourth finger. He’s going too fast but, clearly, Jensen isn’t the only one feeling a little desperate. Jensen comes the moment Jared’s hand slips into him. Before Jared’s first Child Bride, he’d tried to fulfill his needs with the men he dated. Plenty of them let him fuck them, let him fist them even. But there were too many limitations, even when playing with a masochistic partner who never safeworded. It was never enough. It’s different with his Brides. They can’t or simply don’t say “no,” regardless of how far Jared pushes them. And Jensen, Jensen seems eager to take anything Jared might want to give him. Jared slides his hand into Jensen, easy as pie with the way he’s been stretching Jensen’s hole out, only he just doesn’t stop pushing. Jensen takes the first half his forearm fairly easily, but he groans and wriggles like he might try to get away as Jared’s arm gets wider and goes impossibly deeper. Jensen’s asshole is stretched tight and thin, bloodless and white, like a rubberband ready to snap. There’s no room for more of Jared in Jensen’s body and as the reality sets in, his inner muscles start to frantically contract in an attempt to push Jared out, the muscles in his legs and arms twitch with the strain of not pulling away, his bladder empties in a hot, unexpected gush as though trying to give Jared even the smallest amount of extra space. Jared catches the head of Jensen’s dick in his mouth, savoring his Child Bride’s full-body shudder at the feeling and the knowledge that he’s experiencing the last time Jensen will ever take a piss. Jared’s not certain of the anatomy of this, where his hand goes, but he imagines that if he keeps on pushing long and hard enough, he’ll eventually hold Jensen’s heart in his hand. Jensen’s body fights him harder every inch deeper he gets. Jensen sobs as he’s being gutted, but he’s tiny and doped up and Jared doesn’t let up. Jared forces his entire arm, all the way up to his shoulder almost, into Jensen’s body. Jared gives his arm an experimental twist and Jensen squirms, tries to shy away and just ends up hyperventilating, smashed against the headboard with his stumps scrabbling for purchase in the ruined sheets. “‘s hurt, baby?” “M-more than anything, ever.” Jared hums and nuzzles against Jensen’s flaccid cock just to watch him flinch. On a whim, he grabs Jensen’s nearest hand with his free hand and lays it across Jensen’s belly. “Feel me inside you?” The bulge is too big to miss, distorting the entire shape of Jensen’s abdomen. When Jensen realizes, he gasps, pressing down to feel. Jared angles upward so they’re touching hands through Jensen’s belly. “Fuck.” Jensen’s hand follows the bulge as Jared finally draws back. When Jared withdraws his hand, Jensen’s guts inevitably follow with a deep, wet squelch. His rose is true red, striped white with Jared’s load. The darker shade of Jensen’s blood is only just visible on Jensen’s rose petals before it drips from his flesh onto the white sheets. Jensen slaps a hand over his mouth, blushing red as his insides. To Jared’s surprise, the rose withers almost as quickly as it bloomed, though Jensen’s ass stays gaped open. Jared thought the bloom would be more permanent. “Oh my god! I didn’t–I . . . Oh my god.” Jared almost laughs at Jensen’s shock and embarrassment. He hadn’t realized that there would be anything he could do to turn his self-admitted rape-slut Bride into a shy virgin. “You’ve never prolapsed before?” He guesses. “No, never.” Jensen probes at his own center with curious, tentative fingers. “Want to do it again?” Jared grins conspiratorially. Jensen nods and folds his hands preacher’s daughter proper on his stomach like he’s putting them out of Jared’s way. Jensen’s loose enough now that he can take Jared’s fist with just a little twisting and a moan. Jared shoves it in and pulls it out a couple times, real fast so that the motion starts to turn Jensen inside out. He digs his fingers in on either side of Jensen’s hole, the pressure keeping the sphincter from clenching back up and Jensen blooms so prettily. Before Jared can lean in for a taste, Jensen reaches down, fingers scrabbling between his own legs to touch his own guts. And when his fingertips find the fold between his petals that opens up and allows his fingers to sink in, Jensen moans. Jared laps around Jensen’s knuckles, indulging in the taste of blood and flesh that’s never seen the light of day. And when Jensen sticks his fingers right into Jared’s mouth, Jared enjoys the salt-sweat-ass taste of them too. While Jensen’s eyes are closed, in pain or bliss it doesn’t matter, Jared grabs a knife from the bedside table. When he catches sight of the blade, Jensen bites his lip. “Remember how you said you wanted me to put anything I wanted into you?” Jensen nods, eyes fixated on the knife. “This is going to hurt more than a tree branch.” Jensen swallows hard and Jared thinks he might finally balk, might finally require Jared to take what he wants by force. But then Jensen grabs his own thighs and pulls them wide. Jared kisses at the pale, freckled flesh Jensen put on display for him. “God, what did I ever do to deserve you?” He thrusts the knife right into the center of Jensen’s rose. Jensen howls, but doesn’t let go of his legs. Jared’s tempted to stab him a few times, to cut right through Jensen’s rim to ensure that his rose never vanishes, but he doesn’t want to push Jensen too far. Not yet. They have time. Instead, he pushes, shoving until the knife is sitting deep in Jensen’s guts. Then he leaves it there. The sheer permanence of it is intoxicating and Jared knows the thought has occurred to Jensen too. There is therapy for the kind of love they have and prosthetics to replace Jensen’s feet, but nothing that can repair what Jared does to Jensen’s insides. Taking away his Bride’s ability to walk is sweet, but ensuring that he’ll never eat or take a shit again feels like true love. Jensen trembles so violently even the parts of his insides that bulge out of his body quiver. “You want me inside you. Every way possible, right? Want me to fill your cock up too?” “Please. Please, baby.” These’s no hesitation, even as Jensen strokes at the slippery texture of his his ruined asshole. “Shh, I’ve got you.” Jared would usually start with a sound. He has a set—surgical steel and every bit as custom as the garters, albeit less pretty—waiting on the bedside table. But he can’t wait, feels like when he was a teenager jonesing for the next animal he could kill, the next time he could whack off. He feels out of control in the best, most world-changing way. Jared probes at Jensen’s rose, finding the opening where it’s hidden by blood and guts with his fingertips. When he forces his hand back inside, the sound is obscene, both Jensen’s gasp of a scream and the suck of his body. Even Jared’s entire hand and forearm can’t quite take the bloom off Jensen’s flower now. It’s not hard to find the knife handle, but it’s too slick to grab easily in such a tight space. Jared would ask Jensen to help, but he’s pretty sure that it’s not physically possible for Jensen to flex the muscles that deep inside him intentionally. Jared presses down just above the visible bulge of his hand in Jensen’s stomach, trying different levels of pressure in order to maneuver the knife into his waiting fingers. Jensen whimpers and Jared thinks he might try to shy away, but instead Jensen spreads his legs wider. The knife comes out slower than it went in, the handle snagging on Jensen’s insides and prompting a series of tremulous, pained sounds. Jared imagines that Jensen’s insides look like ribbons now, just like Jensen knew Jared would want them to. The knife comes free in a rush of blood and loose tissue, creating a new slick, hot puddle on their wedding sheets, deeper than any before. The logical part of Jared’s mind recognizes that Jensen is probably approaching the threshold of too much blood loss and that the internal bleeding will probably kill Jensen, but as he indulges for a moment, sucking and slurping the blood directly from the source, Jared can’t feel anything but turned on.   Jared slips his cock back into Jensen’s pulsing, bloody body and leans up to give Jensen a taste, letting his Bride kiss and lick at the mess dripping from his lips. Jared finds Jensen’s cock blind and places the tip of the knife right into his slit. Jensen screams and writhes when Jared splits the glans all the way down to the shaft, but he screams into Jared’s mouth, winds his hands tighter into Jared’s hair, and writhes up into Jared’s grip in a perfect, instinctual reaction that Jared couldn't’ve have predicted even after watching Jensen love every moment of pain. Jared tosses the knife aside and finds Jensen’s urethra by touch, forcing his finger into the cleft head, feeling the tear widen as he goes, and then pressing deeper, right down to the web between his fingers. Jensen’s soft and may never get hard again, but the way he begs for Jared to stay inside him says he’s every bit as turned on as Jared. Jared fingerfucks Jensen’s dick, in awe of the fact that he’s touched Jensen in so many virginal places and still found one more. He comes with his dick pressed against Jensen’s rose, his tongue in Jensen’s mouth, and his finger buried in Jensen’s body right where it belongs. ===============================================================================   Jared moves his Bride to a relatively dry spot on the bed, lets Jensen sleep. Jensen’s face is so relaxed and untroubled that Jared wants to lay right down next to him and doze off. But he has equipment to retrieve while Jensen’s resting. Jared empties the blood basin into a watertight container, leaving it in the Honeymoon Home’s fridge for later. He cleans Jensen’s disarticulated feet reverently, marveling at the few scattered freckles there, and begins the preservation process. The routine is familiar, comforting and somehow domestic with Jensen’s sleeping peacefully waiting for him. Most of his Brides pass on before Jared begins tidying up, but none of his other boys have been Jensen. Few of them have had specific requests and none except Jensen have accepted what Jared gives them with so much enthusiasm. Jared wants to make the next transformation special, even though Jensen must certainly already know it’s coming. He sets out two framed pictures of their shared inspiration—one of the rarer photographs of Betty wearing lipstick and a close-up of her manmade smile. He’ll use a scalpel to replicate Betty’s Glasgow as closely as possible. Jared wants to make this perfect for Jensen, he deserves it. Jensen wakes suddenly, with a pained groan. He touches his own body with shaking fingers and his brow furrowed as if he’s checking that what he remembers is real. He notices the framed portraits first, then the scalpel and Jared leaning patiently against the headboard. Jensen reaches out to touch Jared like he’s not sure that Jared’s real either. Jensen’s tiny, aimless circles on his thigh fill Jared with an overwhelming sense of affection. He could have loved this boy forever, he realizes. Jensen could’ve been The One. The thought is both alarming and comforting. He wishes he’d taken more time with Jensen. His Bride is already dying and some part of Jared is already mourning. “Is it time?” Jensen asks, sweet and quiet with a smile and Jared’s heart breaks a little for this fragile, tender, shattered boy of his. Jared nods. “Lie still, baby.” Jensen smiles and then seems to conscientiously check himself, relax his face into a more neutral expression to let Jared work. Jared sits astride him, ignoring his half-hard dick where it’s pressed against Jensen’s solar plexus. Jensen grips Jared’s hips, fingers digging in like Jared’s already fucking him instead of cutting him. Jensen’s breath picks up as Jared slides the scalpel into his mouth, letting it rest between his teeth for a moment so Jensen can touch his tongue to it if he wants. The cuts through Jensen’s cheeks are easy, but Jared still takes them slow to give Jensen as close to Betty’s look as possible. Jensen’s breath sounds like a burbling brook as the blood drips into his mouth. Jared holds his Bride’s face in one hand as he performs the final cuts to remove a portion of Jensen’s top lip. With the two of them breathing blood, it feels more intimate than any kiss Jared has ever given or received. “There,” Jared says when he’s finished, grinning and giving Jensen’s nose a quick kiss. “You could be her long-lost brother.” Jensen’s words come out mangled and wet, but Jared understands. “Am I as pretty?” “Pretty as Betty?” Jensen nods, tears welling though from pain or hope or self-doubt Jared can’t be sure. “You’re even prettier, baby. You always were.” Kissing him is like drinking blood from a flesh goblet and Jared drinks greedily. Without Jensen’s cheeks in the way, Jared can force most of his face into his Bride’s mouth, putting his entire tongue into Jensen’s throat. Jensen struggles to breathe, but makes no move to push Jared away. Jared drinks his fill, grinding against Jensen until he’s aching and hard. Jensen looks confused when Jared begins to position him, but once his head is hanging over the edge of the bed, his eyes light up with understanding. Jensen relaxes and opens up. He opens his mouth unnaturally, almost preternaturally, wide like a snake unhinging its jaw, heedless of the blood that streams into his nose and eyes before dripping to the floor. Jared uses his fingers first, fitting his entire hand into Jensen’s mouth just the way it fit into his ass, fingers getting acquainted with the smoothness of Jensen’s throat. So different from his ass and yet somehow the same. To Jared’s delight, his Bride appears to have virtually no gag reflex, blinking contently through blood while Jared fingerfucks his throat. Jensen does gasp for air when Jared removes his fingers only to replace them with his cock, but he seems entirely, wholeheartedly willing to let Jared shove anything that fits down his throat. Jensen’s composure breaks finally with his air completely cut off, but he doesn’t tap out, just swallows and swallows like he’s trying to acclimate to not breathing, holding onto Jared’s thighs with every ounce of strength he has left. It’s a struggle, but Jared manages to fit his dick down Jensen’s throat and both his balls into Jensen’s mouth, pressed painfully tight against teeth. They fit together in ways not even his or Jensen’s sick minds had dreamt up before this, too seamlessly for Jared to deny it, not now and not in any future he can foresee. ===============================================================================   They’re laying together with Jensen’s mutilated face resting on Jared’s chest when he finally lets Jensen in on his final wedding present, the real surprise. “I’m going to take your cock, Jens.” Jensen looks up at him, eyes widening, pupils dilating in spite of the morphine coursing through him. Jared pillow talks, stroking the raw edges of Jensen’s new smile. “I’m going to eat it. Your balls too, probably. You’d never imagine how satisfying phallus is when prepared correctly. The question is: am I taking it now or waiting until after our honeymoon?” Jensen’s definitely feeling pain and the dope, eyes unfocused. Jared gives him all the time he needs. “Will I survive our honeymoon?” The words are misshapen but unmistakable. “No, baby. It ends when you do.” “Then take it now. I wouldn’t want to miss it.” No Child Bride has ever asked so much of Jared and he’s never been so happy to keep his Bride happy. Amputating a phallus is so much simpler than feet, no bones or ligaments or major arteries to deal with. Once Jared decides to do it, all he has to do is take Jensen’s junk in one hand and slide the knife through the place where it all connects. Jensen’s cock and balls are surprisingly light in his hand. Jared sets them aside to be taken to the kitchen. Later, though, because he can’t miss the mesmerizing writhing of Jensen’s almost-finished-masterpiece of a body. The gash left between his legs is a startlingly violent red, pulsing and bleeding above his flexing, irreparable asshole. Jensen’s gasp seems to call on every muscle in his body, leaving him tensed and twitching. Jared worries that he might have a seizure like some of the other Child Brides have when their morphine levels climbed too high, but Jensen just sighs, the twitching turning into something resembling aftershocks from a bone- deep orgasm. Jared watches for a moment with fascination. He’s turned most of his Child Brides into cherry-popped little girls, but never while one was alive. The only other time he’s tried, the Bride died of shock almost immediately. Jensen is different. His eyes are already open and back on Jared, clearer now and almost frighteningly focused. He reaches for Jared with weak, trembling hands. “Eat me out?” Jared would never dream of saying no. The inside of Jensen’s groin is smoother, hotter, wetter than anything in the world. Jared’s tongue glides so easily over Jensen’s bloody cunt that he has almost no control of the motion so instead of attempting finesse, Jared fits his mouth over as much raw flesh as he can and sucks. Jensen screams, then sobs, tearing into Jared’s hair with his fingers. Jared expects to be pushed away, to have to fight for this meal after all, but Jensen pulls instead, using what little leverage he has to grind his newborn-tender pussy against Jared’s face. Jared yanks at Jensen’s hips, helping pull until he’s all but drowning in Jensen’s slick. It pours down his throat and face, irony and hot. Jared can’t believe his new Bride is a squirter. When Jensen’s grip fails, Jared flattens out his tongue, moving his head up and down to cover as much of Jensen’s cunt as possible. Jensen’s hyperventilating in front of Jared’s eyes, eternally smiling and spattered with his own menstrual blood. Jared pulls back just enough to lick his lips and kiss at Jensen’s thigh. “What does it feel like?” He hasto know. Jensen pets his hair, looking blissful, chest still heaving. “It’s like losing my virginity.” Jared groans for that and buries his face back in the bloody flesh of Jensen’s brand new gash. He’s dying to know if Jensen can come with no cock. ===============================================================================   Jared knows their honeymoon is ending. Jensen needs more morphine now to stay conscious through the agony, but the injections make him itchy and irritable. Jensen’s breathing too shallowly and turning too blue around his nail beds to make it much longer. Before he lets Jensen go, Jared knows he needs to fulfill one last promise. He doesn’t ask, doesn’t warn Jensen, just leans over him in their blood-soaked marital bed and slits his belly. Jensen looks up at him wide-eyed at the sudden pain and then seems to comprehend what Jared’s doing. Jensen toys with the new wound absently, pulling it wider with just fingertips as Jared strokes himself to hardness. This hole takes Jared easier than any of Jensen’s others, congenital or Jared- made. He bottoms out too-fast, pelvis flush with Jensen’s side. Jensen seems unable to speak, but he makes little noises, begging, thanking, showering Jared with love. The whimpers are more than enough. The angle is wrong for Jared to pull out more than a little so he just ruts in deeper with brutal snaps of his hips, half-straddling Jensen with one leg folded up underneath him and the other leg stretched out with his foot braced against the bed. Jensen’s mouth stays open, and not just because of his Glasgow, like he’s surprised by each new sensation as Jared’s cock rearranges his abdominal cavity. He looks at Jared with wonder, with awe. With a honeymoon kind of love Jared’s dreamed he saw in his other Child Bride’s eyes but never actually had before. “Baby,” Jensen breathes and Jared comes. Jensen’s brought him off so many times that the climax hurts in Jared’s stomach and balls, and the come that dribbles out of Jensen’s wound after his soft cock is runny and virtually clear. Pink where it mingles with blood. Maybe it’ll still be enough to give them a honeymoon baby. After all, he’s filled Jensen’s belly right to bursting. Their honeymoon is ending, but they still have some time together just the two of them. Jared wastes a little of it pressing feathery kisses to Jensen’s stomach, smelling the familiar heady scent of the inside of a body, and enjoying the near-to-dead weight of Jensen’s hand resting in his hair. ===============================================================================   Jared often misses the exact moment that death parts him from his Child Brides. He has no qualms about lying with them after and so has no need to capture their last breaths. In this, as in everything, Jensen seems to be the exception. Jensen is close and Jared loves how much close to death looks like close to climax on Jensen’s pale, split open, bloodied face. They’re kissing, Jared spooned around Jensen’s broken body to tease his finger around the wound in his side and tongue into his mouth. When Jared pulls back to look, Jensen is smiling easily, gently like Jared has just woken him from a restful night’s sleep. “You ready, baby?” Jensen’s head lolls forward lightly and then back in what Jared accepts as a nod. Jared slips between his Bride’s legs, half-hard and tender-hearted at the sight of his sweet, sleepy love leaking come or blood or both from every natural orifice and a few new ones besides. Jared ruts against Jensen’s rose and gash, hips moving tight and fast, fingers plunging as deep as they are long into Jensen’s abdomen. Jared kisses at Jensen’s smile, tongue sliding into his throat and the edges of the wounds. Jensen last breaths are shaky, but his fingers clench with every bit of strength they have left to hold Jared to him. Like true love, Jensen doesn’t die until Jared comes. Like any good husband, Jared keeps kissing Jensen until he begins to cool. When Jensen is resting peacefully, Jared uses a grapefruit spoon to take both eyes from their sockets. He severs the optic nerve with the knife he’d let sit in Jensen’s guts just hours before. He pops the right eye into his mouth, rolling it like a fine chocolate. The first time he’d taken a Child Bride’s eyes, he expected the Eating Eye to be much like a peeled grape. To his delight, however, the organ mostly melted away like butter on the tongue with a little sucking and pressing against his teeth. Though eyes have very little flavor, Jensen’s green ones are the sweetest, most succulent Jared has ever tasted. Jared considers sticking the tip of his dick into Jensen’s Keeping Eye socket and seeing how far it’ll go, but he’s too rubbed raw and spent yet. Instead, he leaves the small amount of muscle and gristle left over, as well as the inedible lens, in Jensen’s empty eye socket so the investigating detectives will know precisely why Jared claimed his Bride’s eyes. He carefully prepares and preserves the left eye for display. Jensen’s Keeping Eye is truly spectacular, unique in color. Jared gives the jar a place of honor on his bedside table to keep his Child Bride close. Jared retrieves and saves Jensen’s dick like a piece of their wedding cake, to be eaten when the missing of him really sets in. ===============================================================================   Jensen’s mama doesn’t have any flower beds, Jared checked. It seemed only appropriate to leave Jensen to be found among the flowers. A wedding bouquet and funeral arrangement all in one. But the Ackle's yard is a tasteful, drought-resistant patch of dirt, gravel, and cactus, no place for Jared’s Bride. Jared takes Jensen to an overlook in the nearby nature preserve instead. The area is secluded enough that Jared’s flower arranging is uninterrupted, but not remote. Wild flowers grow thick by the side of the road and beyond the safety rail stretches a spectacular view of the valley below. If they were the average couple, Jared might have taken Jensen here on a date and parked with him and made it to third base. Jared poses his Child Bride exactly the way he knows Jensen wants to be found, empty eyes open to see the stars above them and the sun when it rises, legs open to the overlook visiting area so that it’s impossible to see him without seeing the goriest details of what Jared made him. In a fit of sentimentality, Jared plucks a handful of flowers and leaves them on Jensen’s chest, held in place by one powdered-sugar-freckles-dusted hand. Jared takes wedding pictures for his album since he won’t be back to visit Jensen unlike his ex–Child Brides and brings some of the same flowers home with him to keep until they die. Like a faint, pale echo of Jensen. ===============================================================================   The newspapers call him “The Flower Boy” until detectives identify his body. It’s appropriate, even if it demotes Jensen from bride to wedding party. Jensen must love how reporters take his story and run. One columnist dubs him the Black Dahlia’s brother and speculates some relation between her never-caught killer and Jensen’s. The columnist publishes pictures of Betty and Jensen side-by-side, pointing out the similarities in their smiles, both before and after. Jared takes his ex–Child Bride pictures out of his wallet and tucks them into a wedding album. The only picture that belongs in his wife pocket of his wallet is Jensen’s.
