Cupidity
Book I of the Yellow Brick Road series. An alternate version of Season 3’s Helpless, in which the Council locks a drugged and powerless Buffy in with a certain bleached-blond vampire who already has two Slayers under his belt.
A Love Like Ours
Buffy is broken, and Spike is determined to again make her whole by giving her what she needs most: an ear to bend, a shoulder to cry on, and, most importantly, someone who understands.
20 Months
Buffy and Spike share a drunken night then decide to marry after Buffy finds out she is pregnant. They don’t love each other. They barely know each other. But they marry under the agreement to divorce one year and one month after Buffy gives birth in order to keep Buffy and the child away from Buffy’s abusive parents.
