It occurred to Spock that his body may not have been changing for no reason. That, by some surprise, there was some purpose for all of this, and that his erratic sleep schedule and diet were not coincidental or unrelated in any way. The internal demands to organize his new-found home should not have been taken as an independent event, either. Taken

Spock had never felt more Vulcan in his life, though he probably wouldn’t recall this in the future.
Out in the hall, on the second floor landing, he shouldered a wall as he fumbled with the communicator, trembling fingers prying open the case. Why? They were both asleep and why did he still burn, a tangible ache in his thoughts-
“Leonard.” He kept the growl from his voice-wouldn’t do to scare the prey from the nest. “Leonard. It is Jim, at my ha-kel.” The perfect lure, so easy to choose. “He needs you. I need you.”
The communicator dropped from his hand to the floor, unworthy of his attention now that he could picture the prize on the horizon. He slunk down the staircase, all quiet footsteps and movements.

He was thinking too much, too fast, and now he was fucked 'cause Spock had his shirt again, fuck, this is why he was a doctor and not a soldier. Spock was pulling him and Bones could feel the fabric tearing in Spock's fingers. Feigning a step to the left, he turned and moved right, trying to get out of there.

From this vantage point Bones could get a knee up and he kicked as hard as he could in Spock's direction and scrambled backwards on the island countertop.

The kick sent him back against the cabinets, bouncing a little off of their oh-so-comfortable face. It twisted his balance, so he had to stop first before going after Leonard again, swiping for an ankle, a limb, or if he was lucky, a pant leg. Achieving nudity appeared to be half the battle.

But Spock had him again, pants this time, and Bones kicked at him again, laying on his back and trying to free his leg from that grip, feeling like he was starting to lose his breath now. Harder to breath... Fuck.

"Leonard." His hands darted forward, grasping both sides of his face in a vice-tight grip. "Kroika." He commanded him to stop, words and telepathy and the sheer force of his presence all committed to this one purpose.

Kroika. He could feel the words, Spock's command loud inside his head but his connection to someone else, someone he needed to find and protect, was stronger. Stop it.

Right now, it was inconvenient. It nearly sent him off the countertop, saved only by a hasty grab at the sink faucet that may or may not have to be replaced later. Again, his body lurched forward, this time grabbing for Leonard's wrists, something to pin down. If he could get close enough, then he wouldn't have to worry about being kicked off, either, and he could simply wait until Leonard was tired and pliable, like Jim.

He stilled a moment, gathering his energy for one more try. One foot caught the edge of a cabinet, and Bones pushed backward, sending them both off the island. The crash hurt like fuck, Bones hitting the floor and feeling it all over, his head swimming and Spock sprawled on top of him, but he couldn't stop, not now.
Bones scrambled backwards on the floor as fast as he could.

Again, he ignored it in favour of what he yearned for, what he didn't have yet. Spock let him scramble as he readied for the pounce, waiting for Leonard get to the optimal distance before he leapt forward, tackling him into the ground.

Where is Jim? He looked up at Spock, not recognizing the person looking back at him. Why are you doing this?

Then he felt his pants being pulled down and panic set it, all of a sudden this shit was real and happening and no one had done that to him, just Jim, only Jim, and fuck he had to get out of this place now.
So when Spock brought his mouth up to his, Bones breathed in once, then closed his eyes and bit down hard on Spock's lip, hard as he could, tasting blood - his or Spock's, he didn't know. Using the split second of distraction he'd gained, Bones rolled out from under him, scooting back as fast as he could.

Don't be afraid. He hissed in mind, perhaps aloud, too, one hand around his throat holding his head up. The fire poured into Leonard's mind, filling his senses until it burned on his skin like it did for Spock, a quiet roar like a distant ocean. Yet it all remained at the surface, nothing hazy or questionable about Spock standing right up against him with dark green blood trailing down his chin, staring at him with wide black eyes, something uncomfortably hard pressed to his hip.
