Usual disclaimers apply, yadda yadda yadda. You know the drill.
Stephan Xander paced up and down his chamber restlessly. How could he have let something so dreadful happen to his newly acquired boy. He knew the emotional trauma that came along with a rape experience, first hand he knew that, and he had let it happen to someone else. Not just anyone else either, a traveler that had caught his eye, a boy that he wanted for himself.
Stephan had no idea if the boy liked men or not, but if he did, then Stephan had planned to have him all to himself. Now the boy had been deflowered by a guard, a common guard, A hired hand. The boy deserved more then that, he deserved Stephan, and all that Stephan could show and teach him.
Stephan raised his hand to the cord that rang a bell to summon his personal servant. Then stopped, It was too soon to see if Culvich had found the guard responsible for the monstrosity. He sighed and sat down on his bed. It was too late for anything else tonight. He had wasted an entire day waiting to hear from his Culvich, and so had done nothing. He was pent up and frustrated. He rang the bell, and waited. When the servant appeared, he instructed her to summon Master Culvich. This would serve him two purposes, he could get information on the guards progress, and he could also relieve some of his pent up anger.
Culvich left Duke Xander's room with a few more bruises on his hide, and on his pride. He would have his revenge on the insolent young noble. He had already started that revenge, taking from him what the duke wanted more, the boy's first experience. If Culvich had done his job right, then the boy would reject every attempt the Duke made to seduce him. Culvich quickly left the hallway that housed his master's chambers.
The boy was standing in his study, looking underfed, scared, and sullen. Stephan's heart went out to him, but right now there was nothing that he could do about it, with the guards standing there behind the boy.
"Do you know why you are here?" Stephan asked finally.
"Yes, I invaded your land, But you must understand, I had no knowledge of-"
"Silence! I asked you a yes or no question. I expected a yes or no answer. Now, follow those guidelines and we should get along fine. Do you understand?"
"Yes." The boy's down-cast look said it all. Stephan had been to hard on him, and he knew it. Stephan was torn between wanting to make all the boy's troubles go away, and saving face in front of the guards.
Finally he looked up at them and said softly, "You may go." They turned to leave, dragging the boy with them. "He stays!" Stephan instructed.
One of the guards turned to argue, but only had the chance to utter, "But M'Lord-" When Stephan cut him off.
"This man was brought to my castle nude, was he not?" At the guards nod he continued. "He was thrown in my dungeon nude, was he not." Another nod. "He was raped, was he not?" A final nod. "Then I see no way for him to be hiding a weapon, and trust me, he poses no threat to me in hand to hand combat. Leave!" The guards hurried out the door, and Stephan turned to the boy before him.
"I am sorry for your treatment so far. I left your care up to another, and I have learned that I cannot trust that man to take care of my valuable prisoners. Yes, you did trespass on my property, however, the punishment that you received is not the punishment that we usually give to trespassers. I hope that you accept my apology for that, and my assurance that we are doing everything that we can to find the man who has done this to you, and put him to justice. Normally under these conditions I would let a prisoner go, with a large sum of compensation. However I would like to offer you a choice instead. If you are headed somewhere where you are needed urgently, I will let you go, with an escort and 100 crowns." He watched as the boy reacted to the offer, and noticed that the boy seemed to be considering it, but looked at Stephan for the second option. "If you turn that down, I can offer you a place in my employment, with the chance to improve your situation."
"Why would you offer me the second choice, if you don't offer it to others."
"None of the others has attracted my attention as you have. I leave you the option."
"What is the catch?"
"You are a smart one. The catch is that while you remain in my service, I will do anything and everything that I can, short of forcing, to win you to my bed." He studies the boy waiting for his reaction to that statement. To his surprise, the boy took this revelation calmly.
"I chose to remain in your service, Duke, and I will help you with your mission. I require from you only one thing, and you will find me by your side, night after night until you tire of me. Find the man who raped me, and let me kill him."
Stephan stood, "I do not wish to buy your way into my bed."
"Then consider this, I would come willingly, as you are an attractive man. However you offered to do anything you could, and I am taking advantage of that offer." With that the boy took three steps forward, bringing him to Stephan. He reached out and pulled the Duke toward him until their lips met. "One more thing I require," the boy said, as his erection brushed the fabric of Stephan's clothes, "Is some clothing."
Culvich stood with his hands pulled above his head, and tired there, and his feet once again, strapped to the black box. Stephan approached with a leather thong, and knelt before him. Lifting the older man's cock, Stephan meant to tie the thong around his balls, but he fingers brushed against a wound that Stephan had not inflicted, and Culvich took a sharp breath inward. Looking at what appeared to be scabbed over teeth marks, Stephan asked Culvich:
"What's this?"
There it is -- part two. I am sorry that there is no sex in this one, but I put so much sex in the last one, I was not able to advance the plot-line. Hopefully next time I can find the right balance between sex and plot development. Until then, have fun.
