I had been staring at Toro for two weeks thinking he might be a tasty replacement for the meat we hadn't had in months. Raul and Tomas had gotten in a fist fight a few days earlier with Tomas ending up with a bloodied nose and Raul with a black eye. Joey had been paddling deuce almost every morning. Jude, Ace and I had secluded ourselves in the area I had designated a workshop and would avoid the others for almost the entire day, with either Jude or Ace bringing a mid-day meal to our area. The tension was high in the house, a fight could have started with just one wrong word.

None of us had been weighed but I would guess that we had lost at least ten to fifteen pounds. That is except Jude, he had gained some weight and grown at least five inches in height. Joey had been trying to keep us fed but the food we had gathered on the trip across Texas and New Mexico was beginning to run low. We were having almost the same food for weeks on end. Joey had gone with Raul to the trailer where he had been living for the last of any food stored there. When they returned Joey hinted that the weather might be changing, he seen a tree that he thought was turning green.

With as much snow as surrounded the area I was sure there would be wet roads and possible floods when the weather changed. We started to make preparations to leave. While most of us found having a goal to be positive, Deuce and Raul had to be separated every day, they had started going from taunting each other to attempting to trip and hit from behind. Joey couldn't seem to control Deuce, Raul was taking advantage of the fact he was smaller and less muscular: he had tried to start the same bullying with Tomas, I had put an end to that by having Ace and Tomas flip him over a crate where not only I fucked him but allowed Tomas the pleasure, too. Ace was still in his chastity cage and unable to join in.

A few days after Joey and Raul returned from the trailer we had Ace and Deuce bring in enough wood to last more than a week. The tunnel to the woodpile had started to drip, if we didn't get wood in we were likely to have the tunnels collapse or turn icy. Joey and I attempted to get the truck's engine to turn over but its seemed to be frozen solid. Every way either of us thought to defreeze it was dangerous and likely to leave us without a vehicle to push through the final leg of our journey. Raul and Deuce cleared away as much snow as they could from the top of the truck, there was at least a foot remaining over the engine compartment holding in the freezing temperature.

I could hardly believe how anxious I was to get back on the road. It wasn't just to find more food, I was so tired of snow and being cabin bound. If it hadn't been for Ton giving birth to a son a year earlier there wouldn't be anything of note to tell you about those years. Joey and I had slowed down our fucking, not only of each other but of the slaves and the boys. Deuce had been expressing his unhappiness to Ace but my slave told him that he was happy to be owned. I'm not certain what caused the blow up but I turned from the warmer I had been making for the truck engine to see Tomas and Ace trying to hold Joey and Deuce apart.

"No! You, can't paddle me!"

"You're my slave and if I think you need paddled I will." Joey was as out of control as Deuce. I tried to ignore them.

"Raul and Tomas, hold him down."

"Stay out of this. Hide behind those crates." I didn't want Ace involved. It wasn't that I was trying to stand in Joey's way in disciplining his slave, if he couldn't do it on his own then he shouldn't be owning the slave. I was surprised that Deuce had thought he had grown enough to take on Joey in a fight but we were getting older and should expect some resistance if not outright rebellion.

I had known for some time there would be the day that Deuce no longer would consider himself Joey's possession. I hadn't expected the physical fight but I guess I should have since so much of their life together was physical. For at least another ten minutes they yelled at each other, Raul had been successfully holding them apart but he was starting to fail and looked to me for help.

"Joey, I think you should sit down." I had finally walked over to where the two of them were swinging at each other. Every so often one of Joey's fist would hit Deuce, his arms were a bit longer giving him the advantage. I stepped between the pair just as they both hit Raul, knocking him to the floor. I gave Deuce a push.

"Sit. Joey, you sit over there." I had gotten them to take chairs at the end of the table which put them far enough apart that they couldn't have reached each other unless they jumped on it.

"Now, what is going on?" I had to stop them both three times in their fury they couldn't understand that I could only hear one at a time.

"Raul, keep Deuce quiet. Stuff a shirt in his mouth if you have to.

"Now, Joey, what is going on?" I had stayed out of the relationship since the first few times I had held Deuce for Joey while training him to serve.

"He has refused to do anything he's told today. He started out not drinking piss, refused to build up the fire, wouldn't help Raul with the repacking. I smacked him with my open hand and told him if he didn't get to work he was getting at least fifteen strokes with the paddle."

"Okay. So when he didn't do what you ordered him to do did you paddle him?" Raul was sitting back in his chair with his arms crossed against his chest. The adrenaline was pumping, I could see his biceps flexing while Joey spoke.

"I ordered him into position (both of the slaves knew where that was and how they needed to bend over) when he came at me with his fists flying. I hit him hard on the chest knocking him back a few steps, he started after me again but Raul stepped between us and you heard the rest of what happened." Joey hadn't calmed down in the least. What I was going to say wasn't going to go over well but I gave him some more time to calm down by questioning Deuce.

"Deuce, Joey has said that you started out the day not drinking his piss. Is that correct?" I wondered if he had taken Raul's.

"I don't have to drink his piss. I'm not his slave."

"Did you refuse to help Ace with the fire?" That was not only a refusal to obey orders it was a way not to help the whole group and I would have to address that after this was completed.

"That asshole told me to help Ace. I'm not his slave." It was obvious to me where this was going.

"Did you refuse to help pack up the crates that we will need to load onto the truck?" Just like not helping with the fire this was more serious than just not obeying his master.

"I did." He stuck out his chin in pride.

"Joey. Do you remember taking Deuce as your slave?" I knew this was going to be complicated but I hoped for a good ending.

"I do."

"When we turned Deuce into your slave it was because we thought he would make a good slave and that you should have a slave if I did. Did Deuce ever agree to becoming your slave?" The master/slave relationship has to be a consensual relationship or this was one of the possible endings. Others were more friendly and some even turned into loving relationship, no longer having the original basis.

"Joey, Deuce no longer wants to be your slave. What happened here this morning makes it clear that you are not able to convince him that he should remain in servitude. That means you're free Deuce." I hadn't expected it, Deuce and Tomas kissed, passionately. How had I missed that?

"You make it sound like you think you're in charge." I could tell he was about to challenge me more harshly.

"Joey, I am not in charge but if you try to order Deuce around like your slave I will take his side and you will be the one on the outside. You need to understand that he was your slave willingly and now willingly he has taken his freedom. If Ace chose his freedom I would give it to him, too."

"Why do you get to keep a slave if I don't?"

"Ace was granted to me by the tribal leader of the Choctaws in the village after I went through months of learning about their history and mythology. He agreed to serve Junior and I for five years while waiting to be adopted into the tribe. After the first five years he asked to stay with me. Next year we will have a discussion about his future. I have offered him his freedom once and will probably do it again. His service is willing although there are things I make him do he doesn't like. There are no group leaders of any of the others that could give you anyone to serve as your slave, if you want one you are going to have to convince him on your own." He had done it other times when he knew I was right but hated it, he bundled up and went outside.

"Thank you, sir." Deuce came over to me and knelt so that he could kiss my feet.

"Deuce, you are going to have to start learning how to treat people as your equal. Greeting them by kissing their feet or calling them, sir the way you do is going to make people think you want to become their slave." He hadn't raised his head from my feet. I knew if I told him to do anything he would, even the actions he had refused Joey that morning but I wanted him to start acting normal.

"Sir, I would become your slave if you said yes."

"No. Ace is my slave, I have no desire to have another." That was the truth but had it been Tomas kissing my feet asking to be enslaved I would have taken him.

He really didn't look disappointed but I could see the fear in his eyes as he turned to Raul and Tomas. For the rest of the day Deuce and Joey stayed away from each other and Joey studiously stayed away from me. I saw that Joey wasn't going to make a dinner and asked Raul to do one of his Mexican meals.

During the day the rest of that week we started hearing snow and ice falling from the roof. One of the slides took the antenna down so it had to be reattached to the house before we where able to call the village. We let them know that we were going to get back on the road as soon as we were able to get the truck started.

For the rest of the week Deuce and Tomas slept at the bottom of the bed with their heads below Jude and Ace's feet. A few times during the night I kicked which ever one of them was closest but they didn't complain. I hadn't thought about the seating in the truck up until then, we had arrange it so there was five seats but we were going to be carrying seven people and a dog. Joey refused to talk about it.

There continued to be melting of the snow and ice but no sunlight. We spent more time taking radiation readings, I didn't want to have to get dressed in the suits to take the truck out of there but if it was going to be necessary we found suits for everyone. We wouldn't have one for Toro, I refused to mention to Raul what that might mean. I was already trying to find him a seat in the truck. It was taking us longer to repack the crates and therefore the truck than it had either when we left the village or when we unloaded the truck. The tunnels had turned into a frozen strip leading to the truck and woodpile due to the dripping from above. A couple times the roof caved in on someone catching them unaware, no one was hurt more than being bruised.

"Joey, there is only one crate Left to load. It has food for tonight and breakfast." I had dragged him to the bed after the mid-day meal, telling the rest of them to leave us alone until dinner. No matter what happened I wanted it to be between us not us and the other five. Jude had been spending some time with his father but not nearly as much as he had before Deuce had caused so much tension in the house.

"Don't you want me to fuck you any more?" I had two fingers in Joey's asshole but he was pulling away from me. I couldn't remember the last time he had done that other than for two weeks after the dog had fucked him. I hadn't heard anything about him doing that again but there had been a couple nights when he was the last one to get in bed. I moved with him to his side of the bed.

"Roger you made it clear that you are going to side with the others against me. Why should I allow you to fuck me?" Although he was arguing I could tell it wasn't wholeheartedly that he was objecting.

"Because you enjoy it." He was face down on the bed so I crawled over and laid down on top of him, still holding on to him with two fingers inside of him. I had started to move them around so that not only was his asshole getting greased but he was getting teased into being ready for a cock in his ass. He didn't complain about it hurting so I assumed the dog hadn't been mounting him, he was tight enough that I was also assuming that no one in the house had been fucking him for a while either.

As I worked my fingers around he slowly started to push up off the mattress. I would have reached down to see if his cock was getting hard but I had been pinching his nipple and pulling at the hair in his arm pit. I was ready to fuck him but he wasn't ready, for years he had been ready as soon as he felt my cock.

"Joey, are you going to grease my cock?" I pushed it hard against his leg. "Or are you ready to take me with just a gob of spit?"

Grease in his asshole and spit on my cock would have been a tight fuck but possible. I would have had to pin him to the bed and keep my weight on him to make him take me that way. I was hoping he would show his willingness to having me fuck him by greasing my cock so I waited while I enjoyed feeling him press back against my hand more. Just as I was letting a gob of saliva drip onto his asshole he grabbed for the lube and coated my cock from head to balls. For a moment I fucked his hand and then raised up just enough that he had the head of my cock lined up with his asshole.

I rubbed up and down on his asshole for a few minutes. He had always been anxious enough to get fucked that I would only need to rub the head of my cock on his asshole two or three times before he would start to try grab at me with his ass lips opening wide enough for me to slide the head of my cock in. This was like the first time all over again and I had to force my way into Joey inch by inch, opening his asshole moving side to side and up and down.

I had at least seven or eight inches of my cock into him when he began loosening up and relaxing his ass muscles enough for me to slide in or out more than a few inches at a time. I went with him as he loosened his asshole and a few strokes later was able to slide all eleven inches in and out without him trying to stop me. Minutes later he was fucking and bucking as hard as he ever had working my cock while I worked his asshole. We were matched up, every time I pulled back he squeezed down on me and when I pushed back he opened up to allow me a sweet, sweet friction.

I was glad we had been exercising daily. He and I were sweating heavily within fifteen or so minutes, another five minutes and I was swelling inside of his ass feeling him tightening around me and the tender ridge around the head of my cock couldn't stand pushing through his asshole any longer and I drove my cock as deep as I could go and held still while the cum splattered inside him for at least two minutes. I collapsed on top of him. A few seconds later I felt him contracting while shooting his own load into the sheets under him. I didn't pull out even though I was half-way soft, I lay there waiting for Joey to let me know what he wanted next.

It may have been ten minutes later that I felt my cock responding to the tightening and loosening of his muscles. Getting older is telling, when we met I would have never gone even half-way soft between the two fucks. Part of the time he fucked his ass on my cock while the rest of the time I fucked him, it is good to know that we were both wanting the same feelings and results. I wasn't watching the nonexistent clock but I thought he must have been filled with my cock another half-hour.

As soon as I shot a second load he pulled away and knelt at my side stroking his cock until he was shooting his second load onto my cock and balls. I lay back with my head propped on a pillow to watch as Joey licked up his cum, what was coating my cock of my cum and the juices his ass produced. He had me totally clean and dry before he crawled up to my side to lay with his head in my armpit. Lazily he licked at the sweat that had accumulated there while we fucked. With one pit clean he moved to the other side to finish searching for the sweet tasting sweat.

"It's been too long, that was good. I need to get up and take a leak."

"Roger, don't. Let me drink it." He fell to the side of the bed and waited on his knees with his mouth wide open. It had been ever since he had taken Deuce as a slave that he had knelt that way for me. I thought about denying him my full bladder of piss but maybe now Joey was trying to return to the man he was before Deuce had corrupted his outlook on life. I had drank extra coffee that morning and at the mid-day meal so once I started pissing Joey had a stream of hot, dark yellow urine flowing into his mouth and down his throat for at least two minutes.

When I had first dragged him to the bed I had been thinking that I would fuck him and with luck I would get him to fuck me. Having shot a load twice I knew there was no way I was going to get Joey to fuck me. My look must have let him know that I was not totally satisfied with all that we had done. Like with Junior, Joey and it had been me fucking him twice and him fucking me once but age was catching up and twice was enough for a few hours. He stayed on his knees licking at my cock, squeezing the shaft and pressing my taint trying to get the last of any piss I might be holding back. I flopped back onto the bed, worn out from our activity.

Joey must have thought I was giving him a hint or an opportunity. I don't know which he thought, but he didn't waste any time getting my legs in the air. As soon as my asshole was exposed he dipped his head between my legs and started to lick circles around my asshole getting closer and more intense with every swipe of his tongue until he was swirling his tongue with the very tip lodged inside me. As I relaxed he pushed the tip of his tongue deeper, giving me what I wanted and after two hard fucks needed. I would have liked to have a cock and a few loads of cum in my asshole but Joey's tongue was enough to make me feel good enough to fall to sleep.

I woke to the smell of dinner that pervaded the entire house. Joey had covered me with a blanket when he went to work. Everyone had Left me alone. I think they understood that there was a problem that needed to be worked out and sex might be the only way that Joey and I knew how to work it out between us. Or I could be giving everyone too much credit and they just weren't interested in sex that afternoon. Jude was sitting on the chair beside the bed waiting for Joey to give him the okay to wake me.

"What are you doing, Jude?"

"Waiting on you."

"Why? Couldn't you find anything to do?"

"Sure. We all took the exams that you said we had to have with the bot before we could get in the truck. Then Raul and I took Toro outside for a run.

"What did you do to Joey? He's smiling and whistling while cooking dinner?" Jude was careful to keep his voice low enough that Joey couldn't hear him.

"Just regular Dad stuff."

"You fucked him. I told Deuce you would." He had a huge smile almost as if he had won a bet on the deal.

"If you knew that why didn't you tell Joey to get his ass in the bed with me?"

"Because Ace and Tomas said they wanted you to fuck them."

"Do you always talk with them about who I'm fucking?" I didn't think that was such a good idea but as long as it had been his father it was okay.

"Ace has always talked to me about what you make him do. Tomas caught us talking about you pissing in Ace's mouth and started talking with us about what they liked having you do."

"So does Ace tell you what he likes?"

"He likes anything you make him do that is between he and you. He doesn't like it too much when you make him do things with the other guys." I decided I better not press my son on the subject, I didn't want to know what he knew about sex at ten years old although if he was talking to Ace he probably knew everything we did. How couldn't he, he slept in the same bed.

Having been forced to live on the food that had been in the truck we had a huge empty spot Left when repacking. I hoped that Raul would be able to get Toro to stay in the back of the truck without us having to do much more than find something for him to lay on while we drove. Still having the other seven of us in the front was going to be crowded. Jude had grown a lot during the time we were in the Moab so having him share a front seat was not going to be comfortable. Even having him sit on our laps wouldn't work well.

Joey and I were at least fifty pounds larger than the others so we would have the two front seats, switching off driving. I hoped that Jude would be able to sit in the passenger seat with one of us but if that didn't work he was going to have to crowd into the back with the other four that were already going to be crowded in the back seats. If that plan didn't work I thought I might make Ace ride on the floor board in front of the passenger seat and bury his head in my crotch while Joey was driving.

Raul had been having second thoughts about leaving his home area with us but then third thoughts that he didn't want to live there alone. He and Tomas went outside to bring in enough firewood for the last night. They came running back, in the distance they had seen a pack of wolves that they thought might be headed our way.

"Joey, I know you wanted to give the ground another day to dry but if the wolves are headed this way maybe we should leave now.

"I slept for a couple hours so I can be the first to drive. There is nothing to hold us here tonight other than taking the turbine off the window and reinstalling the ham radio in the truck. Those two things shouldn't take more than an hour and a half. Let's take a look to see how far the wolves are." I had no idea how fast they could cover the distance from where the boys saw them to the house but if we were to stay we would have to unpack some food and get in more firewood. Either way we would be working for the next hour.

"They aren't that far away. We can install the radio the first time we have to stop. Can we take the turbine off quickly? I can get the antenna down in ten minutes."

"If we have to we can just tear the frame out. Let's get working.

"Jude. Get on top of the truck and watch out for the wolves. When they get to the bottom of that hill let us know it's time to go." Joey and Deuce went to get the antenna, the others went with me to get the turbine out of the window, we had removed the mattress the previous day to get prepared so there was less work to do. What had taken two afternoons to install took a half hour to remove and unhook from the breaker box. We were all in the truck and making our way down the road that ran past the house before the wolves were close enough to bother us.

"Roger, what do you think about forgetting the rest of the sight seeing? It caused us to be stuck here for what, almost four years? If the roads aren't too bad we can make it to California in a couple days."

"I agree. I am beyond ready to get to the ocean. San Diego here we come!"

There didn't seem to be any disagreement among the four in the back. Jude said as long as we were together he didn't care. We would let the village know our plans when we found a good place to pull the truck in for a rest. I headed the truck south and with headlights on high beam worked our way past fully blocked roads using icy shoulders. We weren't making very good time but there was only a twelve hour trip to traverse if we were able to get up to the marked speed limit, how we were moving would take us perhaps two days.

We spotted a big discount store off to the side of the road after driving for about six hours. No one had fallen asleep so I pulled up to the front doors of the store and told everyone that we needed to replenish our foods supplies. Joey headed off with the others following him, each with their own cart. Jude and I went to the clothing department to get something for everyone, there were many parts of the store that were little more than ash but after the amount of time that had passed there was very little smell of fire Left. We then proceeded to the sporting goods section to see if they carried any weapons that would be better protection than the hand guns we were carrying.

A bullet whizzing through the air above my son's head off to my side made me drop to the floor of the store. Standing behind the counter where they would normally have had hand guns stood a tub of a man. He was shouting something I was unable to understand. I can't even tell you the language he was speaking, I am sure it wasn't English, Spanish or Italian but that is as good as I am at identifying languages. Jude had crawled in behind me, I waved him back and the two of us crawled away until we were completely hidden. I guess it was lucky that we had left the cart with clothing behind a set of shelves.

We made our way across the store without anything else happening. When we found Joey I explained what had happened. Safe like we thought we were we choose to exit with what we had already gathered and not to try approaching the man again. The rest of the guys had managed to fill their carts so I felt like if it took us any extra time to get to San Diego we should be fine. We need to find a place to sleep, most of the buildings we had seen were either burned or collapsed due to the snow. It was close to an hour later that we found a house sticking out over the desert that looked like it had been built from the same plans as the one I had rented in Maine.

As we walked through the front door we were greeted by two small piles of ash with a band connecting them. I thought it was the first time I had seen that but it was easy for me to tell that the pair had either had a hand on a shoulder or were holding hands. At least they went with the one they wanted to be with, or so I hoped. I could think of scenario that were less pleasant but I preferred the positive.

There were two bedrooms with two beds. Joey managed to fight with the sofa enough to get it to open out so we had a third bed. I had found linens to make up the two beds that were without.

"Jude you are going to sleep with Ace and I"

"I thought maybe we would get to sleep together." Joey looked very disappointed when he whispered that to me. I wouldn't have minded sleeping with him but even if we slept together Jude was going to be in our bed. I could tell he was ready to be put to bed. When I mentioned that Joey perked up and hugged Raul. I decided that I wasn't going to worry about where the rest of them slept or how they figured it out. Ace followed me to the bedroom and quickly got under the blankets. There was heat available in the house but it had been cold when we started it so it would take time to warm up.

When I woke the next morning no one else was awake. I managed to get out of bed without waking either Jude or Ace which is difficult. I didn't bother dressing before I walked into the front room. There was a slight light glimmering over the desert, that was all we had for the last four years, a slight light. I had let the others explore the house the previous night, it was time for me to see what there was that would help us survive.

The other room that was fronted by glass was used as an artist's studio. Haphazardly lying around the room were desert landscapes and a few portrait paintings of native Americans, some in full dress regalia and a couple with no clothing. I didn't recognize the artist's signature but it was work that I would have loved when I was trying to find paintings for the house back in Maine. The paint that was sitting by an easel was dried out as was a jar with different brushes. We had stayed away from taking any art from any of the place we had stopped or museums we had visited as we had driven from Maine to Texas and then across the state and again when Joey and I set out from East Texas through New Mexico and now into Arizona.

I didn't know if they were of any value but I decided that since we would not be gathering any more food before we hit our final destination I would take three of the paintings. Walking around naked in a warm house was surprisingly pleasant once more. I was checking out the kitchen when Joey woke and joined me. Nearly everything in the pantry was the type of food that Raul liked to use to cook, we decided that we would let him decide what he wanted to take with us.

"I didn't hear the toilet flush. Doesn't it work?"

"I heard some of you all using it last night. I've just been walking around with a hard on waiting for it to go down before I piss."

"Ace isn't up yet. May I have your morning piss?" Joey had normally stayed away from having the stronger morning piss even when he or Tiffan were the ones to greet me the first thing in the morning. He had taken a mild load the previous afternoon, had he forgotten how strong the first piss of the day can be?

"Go for it." I was standing by the back door so if he wasn't able to swallow it I could push it open. On his knees he used his tongue and blew warm air on my cock to get the first stream flowing before wrapping his lips around my shaft. I find it hard to control the speed of that first piss but Joey was having no difficulty in swallowing as his mouth filled. Watching his cheeks blow out and then his Adam's apple bob had my cock starting to stand. I pushed towards the back of his mouth and soon I was pissing straight down the tube leading to his stomach. He couldn't smile with his mouth but his eyes lit up with a sure fire smile.

When I looked up from the top of his head I saw our son watching us. I thought about trying to chase him off but he knew enough about us that seeing his father with his mouth around my cock was not going to shock him. Even as Joey started sucking and then bobbing the full length of my cock I didn't say anything to Jude. I had closed my eyes due to the pleasure and when I opened them again Raul, Tomas, Ace and Deuce had joined Jude in the entry to the kitchen Every dick I could see was hard even the one in a chastity cage.

I waved Deuce over to my side. I wanted Joey to see the cock that was next. With an arm raised Deuce dove into my armpit and licked at me hard. As I pulled my shooting cock out of Joey's throat and shoot on his face I pulled Deuce over so that Joey's mouth was resting on the boy's dick. It only took him a few seconds to start sucking and what was maybe two minutes for Deuce to start shooting rope after rope of the creamiest white cum on his cheeks and nose. Raul and Tomas stepped up to get sucked. When Joey had pleasured us all I looked down to my son and said, "that's your father."

"Ace, help him clean his face." If it had been me Ace would have been on me licking. Being Joey I didn't know what he would do. When Ace wiped up some cum with his cage and put it on Joey's lips I wasn't surprised, I had seen him spurting cum out the end of the cage so I knew he too was into what was happening. After that he used his fingers to feed Joey more of the cum and when there didn't seem to be much Left went to his knees to lick what remained off.

"Thanks, Joey. I think we all are going to start the day feeling better." I knew he felt better, I had seen him shoot two loads of cum on the floor while sucking our dicks. If it had been Deuce sucking our dicks Joey would have made him lick the floor clean, I thought about it but there was too much dirt and grim accumulated over the years while there had been nobody living there.

"This road by-passes Phoenix. Should we go in closer to see about getting more food before we arrive in San Diego?" Joey had been driving since we first loaded ourselves in the truck that morning. Jude had been sitting on the front right corner of my seat, it wasn't the most comfortable I'd been in the truck but he hadn't been moving around too much so I wasn't going to complain.

"There's a big store. Isn't it a grocery store we stopped at before?"

Jude was right it was another Albertson's. We had taken goods from one of them the day we left Santa Fe. I thought there would be plenty of food in San Diego but who knew if there would be other people there looking for food, too? Or stores with people shooting at anyone looking for food?

"Joey, let's stop. We're going to need to leave some room for Toro and the bot but if we load up we might have a better chance of survival along the ocean." I had seen photos of some of the huge ocean front houses north of San Diego. Once we set up a base we planned on making San Diego's beach our play ground. I hoped there might be some Navy personnel that had been in submarines but I hadn't been given any reason to believe there would be from the Nasa satellite images.

Getting to the store was simpler than most of our side trips. Most of the cars were headed in the opposite direction so we were able to push our way through in minutes.

"The desert is trying to take the area around here back." The parking lot was covered in sand deep enough that most of the cars were only visible from their hoods up. Here was no asphalt visible once we exited the major highway. The few buildings remaining were half buried in sand or filled where we could see through windows and doors. We had to dig our way into the grocery store but once we were twenty or so feet inside the sand was barely covering the floor.

We had learned from other stores that the best thing we could do was go into the warehouse first and gather together whatever boxes full of goods that we wanted. If we still had room after that we would go through the store looking for individual packages or cans that would be useful. We or should I say Raul lucked out, just inside the warehouse was a pallet full of the dog food that he fed Toro.

"That's going to take up a lot of room we could use for our food." I think it might have been part of Joey's resentment at losing his slave to Raul and Tomas but I had to agree.

"Raul, look around, if you can find enough rope we might be able to load most of that on the back of the truck laying it on the top." We hadn't used the top Noel and I had made for the truck other than to protect goods from rain and snow but it the weather was going to be clear for the next couple days there was no reason we couldn't load those 50 pound sacks on top.

"Roger, if he does that, we could take a few extra sacks of flour and rice." Three hours later we were all ready to eat.

I got the joy of driving the next stretch. For ten miles or so we had to ride half off the road because of the abandoned vehicles. Gradually the road cleared, after the first hour we were back on the road making good time. A few times when we were passing a small town or city there would be congestion from the abandoned cars and trucks but we had started to see rusted road signs indicating San Diego was getting closer. We were coming out of the mountains when the surroundings went from its daily gray to black.

"Should we wait until the morning and drive the last hour when its lighter?" I hoped everyone agreed, I wanted to pull into San Diego when we could see what was around us. We had found a map of the city at a truck stop but it is always easier to find your way in a new place by sight. I had stopped the truck overlooking an Indian Casino, there were enough RV's parked in the lot I was sure we could find a place to spend the night without having to do much more than pry open a door or two. I was happy to see that there was still electricity to run the parking lot lights and some lights inside the casino although not the big sign at the end of the drive or the one on the roof.

Driving through the parking lot I saw that a good two thirds of the lights were not working. Time takes a toll on human built objects. At least half of the parking lot had been covered in sand and tumbleweeds. Pulling up to the line of RV's I saw that we should be able to spend the night in what had amounted to luxury at some point in time.

"Roger, we're not the only ones here. I saw a shadow move but I can't tell you what it was. It may have been a human or a wolf. Back up a few RV's and let's make a fast choice on where to stay."

Joey seemed spooked. I didn't want to face off with the wolves again and the idea of finding another crazy man like we had seen in Arizona wasn't any better. There were two RV's that looked like some that I had seen that had cost over a million dollars a few years before the attack, I thought we should go for them until I remembered that they were both the kind that had half of the RV compressed into the other half making them only usable when fully extended. I found one that looked good.

"Should I check it out or will you?" Joey had been handed a rifle from the back of the truck by Ace. We both had been wearing hand guns.

"You cover me and I'll try to get in this RV." Nobody would have left their RV unlocked so I pulled a hammer and a wedge out from under the seat. I was ready to step down off the truck when I saw the shadow of a man go between two of the big RV's part way down the line.

"Did any one see any houses or motels nearby?"

No one had. I didn't want to sleep in the truck so I gave Joey a quick look before stepping down from the truck. I went to the first door I saw and using my tools had the door open in seconds. I switched from carrying the hammer to the gun and moved into the RV. There wasn't much light from the parking lot to see by but I went through the trailer not finding anyone.

I was heading out the door to let everyone know to come in when I ran into a younger black man, knocking us both back a few feet. He was dressed in clothing that obviously wasn't meant to be his. He looked like he was starving and afraid of anything that moved. I thought back to the defenses I had been taught the first year in the village. It only took a few quick moves to take him to the ground. I hollered for Joey. He was beside me with his rifle pointed at the man's head in moments. What should we do?

"Get everyone in the trailer. No, let Toro out of the back and have Raul get down." I kept my weight on the man as I waited for the man and his dog.

"Toro, hold!" Raul had Toro standing over the man growling in his ear. I helped the rest of the guys get into the trailer.

"What should we do with him? I don't want to hurt him but he doesn't look like he would join us willingly." I'm not sure what I was meaning other than he looked like he might think guys with guys was sick. Plus he seemed afraid of us.

"Are you being racist, Roger? I would never have expected it. Look at that bubble butt, he may really enjoy us fucking him." I had to admit that his butt did look extremely fuckable, I hoped Joey and I would get the chance.

"Raul, get him to undress." The other guys were inside trying to get the RV ready for guests. I didn't want to rape the guy, partially because he wasn't that clean and partially because I don't think rape is right. I must admit, if Lionel hadn't turned out the way he did I might have taken him against his will.

Toro had to back off the man so he could move. As soon as Toro did as told the man was throwing his clothes under the RV to his other side. I think it was more from fear of Toro than any desire to get naked in front of strange men, but I wasn't sure. It could have been that he wasn't used to wearing clothes but I didn't know. I suppose it could have been that he was afraid of Toro, he is scary.

"What's your name?"

"Lionel. Who are you and why are you here?" I would have bet that was the first time he had to speak in years, his voice was raw and rough, the words came out as if he was unsure he was saying the right thing.

"I'm Roger, that's Joey and the man with the dog is Raul. We just drove in here to find a place to sleep for the night. Do you stay in one of the trailers?" I wanted to be sure we weren't going to be taking what he thought of as his.

"Too cold."

"So do you sleep with someone?" It was the easiest way I could think of finding out whether there were other people around.

"Everyone gone." That came out a little smoother.

The temperature was dropping fast. When we arrived it must have been close to forty five, in the half hour we had been there it had dropped below freezing. Lionel was shivering. I guess making him strip to learn if he was afraid to be naked in front of men was cruel. I pulled a self adjusting blanket from the rear of the truck where we had stacked the ones we had been using for the last few years when we Left Moab.

I handed the blanket to Lionel. I hoped there would be room in the trailer for eight of us and a dog. I motioned to Lionel that he should go up the steps of the trailer we had broken into to.

"Dad, can I have my own bed?" It had been since we left the village that he had slept alone, that was only part-time. He was rattling on about the bunk beds they had found at the end of the trailer.

"You get the top bunk." He didn't even take a look at our captive before running off. I was sure he would be back soon looking for something to eat.

"Joey do you think you can make us something to eat. Our last meal didn't really stick to my ribs, I'm hungry and sure everyone else is too."

"What are you going to do with him?" He directly pointed at Lionel.

"I don't know. For now Toro can keep him under control." Lionel had learned that once he was told to stay that the dog would start growling louder if he attempted moving. I thought back to the day I had met Toro, I wondered if the man thought about Toro fucking him. Raul and Joey might want to watch that but I really didn't.

"Yeah, if he tries anything that dog will have a bitch for the night." The look on Lionel's face made me wonder if he wouldn't like that. But then did he have any understanding of what Raul was saying. As a preteen would I have understood what being a bitch for the dog meant? Not too likely.

"Ace, come here. On your knees, I need to piss." It wasn't often that he had gone most of a day without drinking my piss. Joey had taken my first load and second that day. Ace was glad to get on his knees and unfasten my pants and pull them down until he could pull my cock out. Lionel was watching every move Ace made, I thought I saw a tremble run through his prick and as Ace took the head of my cock in his mouth I moved his head back so he sat there with his mouth open waiting.

When he saw the first of my piss stream hitting Ace's tongue Lionel's prick stood straight out from his body. I really hadn't needed to piss that badly so I was only able to give my slave about thirty seconds worth before pulling his mouth onto my cock and telling him to suck it. Still watching, Lionel had let his mouth hang slack with his bright pink tongue over his lower lip. His prick was beginning to drool pre-cum that I could see the dog was eyeing, I wondered if Raul would give Toro the order to lick it up.

I had to think about the man sitting there for a few minutes. He didn't look like he could be much older than his mid twenties. If I was right he had been in his preteens when the attack happened. It would be easily possible for him to be a virgin. Would he know whether he wanted to be with a man or a woman? It was possible that he had been thinking about one or the other ever since the day he was Left on his own. Would it matter to him, being alone for so long he might be ready for sex with anyone or thing that came along, I'm sure I would have been at that age.

"Do you like what you're watching Lionel?"

"Yeah!" Although enthusiastic I didn't know whether he wanted to suck cock, be sucked or to piss in someone's mouth.

"Raul, I think Lionel would like to suck your cock, why don't you drop your pants for him?" He had been standing behind Toro so the dog was able to show his teeth to the boy but as Raul stepped in front of the dog he stepped back. Raul wasn't hard, I don't know why but it may have been he wasn't sure of the young man any more than I was. I really didn't know if what I had said to Raul was true or not.

It was warming up in the trailer, between eight people, one dog and a stove going full blast most of us were removing our coats. Lionel had dropped the blanket that he had been holding over his shoulders so once again he was naked in front of us. He watched Raul as the man stripped out of his shirt and let his pants drop around his knees. The way Lionel had his eyes on Raul's dick I had no more doubts that he wanted to suck cock.

Raul didn't tell him what to do. He grabbed Lionel by the shoulder and pulled him from his seat to his knees in front of him. For a few minutes Raul teased Lionel running his soft dick across his lips and tongue. Raul was getting hard fast so Lionel could see what he was going to have in his mouth long before Raul pushed the swollen head over his lips and held it there. I watched closely, I wanted to see if Lionel would show any sign of rejecting the dick as Raul fed it to him. The look on Lionel's face changed from hunger and desire to uncertainty and confusion. Raul wasn't giving him any piss and I would have guessed that Lionel was wondering why he wasn't doing like I had, although it could just been having six inches of cock in his mouth for the first time.

"Lionel, just do what you see Ace doing." His eyes stopped looking at me and moved to where they were seeing Ace moving his mouth up and down on my cock. He wanted to do what Ace was doing and within seconds had his lips wrapped around Raul's dick and had it deep in his mouth.

"Ace, lick my balls." I told him to do that not only because I enjoy having him lick my balls but because I wanted Lionel to follow what he was doing and lick Raul's balls. Watching his wide pink tongue licking those balls was a joy. I didn't have them lick our balls too long, it was going to be time to eat and I wanted to give us both time to shoot a load in our cocksucker's mouth or throat.

"Man, he sucks hard."

"Start fucking his face, Raul. We need to hurry up or dinner will be ready and we won't be." I had put my hands on both sides of Ace's head although I really wouldn't have needed to do that to fuck him without knocking him over. I wanted Lionel not to feel different when Raul did it to him and started fucking his mouth.

"Shit! I'm cumming!" It wasn't a scream so much as a howl. I think Raul would have fallen had I not been able to prop him up as he shot. Lionel look startled but as the cum spread across his tongue he started to swallow and smile. I pumped a load into Ace to reward my slave for showing Lionel what to do and let him take his time draining my balls and shaft with his hand and mouth.

"Did you like that, Lionel?" I wouldn't have asked but I guess Joey had only gotten a glance at him licking cum from his lips.

"Yeah. Are you going to let me suck you, too?"

"After we eat., You can mine for desert." Joey was like me in that regard, h enjoys variety whenever he can get it.

Lionel didn't talk much during dinner. He confirmed there was still food in the casino and in two trucks parked at the loading dock. He didn't think there was much Left in any of the RV's, that is where he had gotten much of what he ate the first year he was there.

I was tired, driving the snow plow is tiring. Plus not having much light to see your way made your eyes tired quicker than normal. Having Ace drain me before dinner I just wanted to hit a bed when I finished eating. I told Ace and Deuce to help Lionel to get washed up, I talked to Joey about leaving in the morning and went to the rear of the RV beyond the room with bunk beds and took over a fancy room. It felt great to strip and crawl under crisp sheets. I wasn't there long enough to get comfortable when Tomas came to the room and asked if he could join me. He is a wonderful crotch warmer so I said yes expecting him to crawl in the bed with his long-johns still on, for the first time he completely undressed and joined me. I thought about fucking him but decided that sleeping sounded better. With Tomas hugged up close I fell asleep.
