It was 1842 and Richard Askew suddenly found himself as the 10th earl, a family whose history went back 200 years in their service to the crown. His older brother had been killed in one of the many battles in India fighting a rebel rajah who wanted to expel the English from India. Young Richard was only 22 when his father died of a heart attack. Some say he died in one of the notorious Cleveland Street brothels in the arms of a lover. Richard was left with his widowed mother and 2 younger sisters all of whom had to be taken care of. His mother was a flighty woman whose only interests were cloths and London gossip. His sisters followed their mother's example. But they must be married off with a suitable dowery. Richard also inherited a large estate as well as a fine London town house.
Richard himself had shunned a university education in favor apparently fully living the life of a London bachelor. His coterie of friends was much like himself. They could be seen at the most elegant of balls dressed in the latest fashion. But unlike his friends, Richard avoided the pitfalls of gambling. His interests lay elsewhere. He pursued the new age of inventions for industry. He was a generous supporter of men who helped to push England's march into the new, industrial age.
But Richard did share one interest with other men of the time. He was a keen seducer of many of the members of the various guard regiments in London. He and his small circle of wealthy, titled men would often host parties, male only parties, attended by poorly paid young officers of the regiments. Here behind discreetly sealed doors, they found pleasure in the muscled arms of the soldiers. Some of these parties were held in private homes. While others were held in one of the many private men's clubs that were around the city. Most often the local constables were paid to ignore the goings on. Afterall, titles and wealth brought a certain amount of secret leisure of a kind not shared by common men.
Richard would sometimes host a small group at his father's London home. His valet, Jackson, being the only servant there. Maids and cooks were replaced by trusty men who were discrete and well paid. Jackson also would recruit worthy young men to entertain Richard's guests. Very often he would quietly send Richard's bedmates of the night home with a payment for their time. Jackson, himself, could usually be found with one of the drunken soldiers warming his own bed at the end of the evening. They were mere crumbs from his table.
Richard searched the social register to find a groom for his increasingly expensive sisters. He had some luck with a Scottish laird for his older sister, Claire. The man was disparate to be linked with a titled English family. His main qualification was that he owned a prosperous coal mining property. His younger sister presented a larger problem. But through his circle he was introduced to a man who was under pressure from his family to marry to avoid scandal. Suitable arrangements were made. Richard had personally tested the young man's qualifications in the bedroom to assure that children would soon be produced.
Now Richard had only his widowed mother to deal with. He decided that for her health she needed to travel to Italy and the south of France. He soon discovered that his mother's bed had not been empty. A handsome, vigorous stable boy had been entertained nightly in her rooms. Jackson reported that the boy was well endowed according to the below stairs gossip. Richard appreciated his mother's taste. It was so close to his own. He knew that with a single word to Jackson he too might share the boy's endowment. It was decided to avoid any scandal that the boy would accompany his mother on her travels as a well paid butler. So now Richard had the estate and the London house to himself. Jackson was promoted to manage both places. Richard dully took his seat in the House of Lords and hosted many parties with the high society members as well as his old chums. His new position in the House also meant that he was exposed to other like minded men who shared his tastes in bed mates. This expanded circle opened his eyes to the possibility of even more improvised young officers. Some of these were younger sons of other members of the House. They had few prospects of inheriting titles but shared the sexual needs that all men had. They were willing to discard their uniforms for a good night of shagging and free drinking at the earl's table. Afterall, Richard was now a respected member of the House. Slowly Jackson replaced the servants with men who understood the needs of other men's bodies.
The old king had no legal hairs except for the 16 year daughter of his late brother. She was kept under tight control of her widowed mother. London was ripe with any news of the king's health. He was the last of King George's brothers. All of these had sat on the throne for only brief times. The prospects of a young girl on the throne excited everyone including Richard and his circle. The girl's uncle had been sent back to Germany to rule the small kingdom of Hanover and was next in line after his niece for the English throne. He was not a popular figure in London or in his small kingdom. His politics were considered too reactionary by most in London.
Richard's life was good. He had disposed of his sisters and mother. His bedroom was occupied by a string of handsome young officers willing to share their bodies for nights of shagging and free drinking at the earl's table. For his 25th birthday he hosted two parties. The London party was attended by the high society of the city and the royal court. The estate party, which lasted for a week, was attended by his coterie of men and young soldiers. Jackson had secured a wide range of handsome young men as servants. Many of these were thrilled to share themselves with the earl and his high placed friends. Some of these new boys were mere lads from local families. For a few coins and the promise of a good time they flocked to the well-guarded estate.
The all male house staff provided additional entertainment for the guests. Richard was a proud host. Even his young brother-in-law managed to get away from his young wife and baby. He was the first to be entertained in a bedroom orgy hosted by Richard. The host demonstrated ways in which his brother-in-law might be used by the other guests. The room was silent as Richard defiled his brother-in-law with progressively larger dildos. Around the room men stood with their hard members in their hands waiting their turns with the young groom. The man himself whimpered displaying his need for the treatments Richard administered. In the end, the whimpering man was turned over to one after the other of the guests to be used as they desired. His treatment would remain in his troubled mind as one of the best days of his life.
But the earl was not a cruel man. He offered up himself to one after another of the well endowed men. His need to be used by stronger men ran deep. He was not the seducer all the time. He craved to taken as a common slut. Some of the larger endowed men took turns filling his body with their seed. Most mornings during the party exhausted men lay around the room, their sacs empty of their seed. But then Richard woke with a burning need for more. He'd race down to the stables to find a working man to slack his thirst for seed. None ever denied him. His smooth unblemished skin and fine blond hair was not easily resisted by any man whose tool was stiff with need for release. Richard would enter an empty stall and position himself as a mare in heat. His moans were an irresistible song for a hard working man. One or more would gladly attempt to satisfy their master's inner most desires.
Jackson, knowing his master well, would often go to the servants' quarters in search of the wanton man. He'd find Richard under a muscled brut snoring as the brut dropped another load into the overstuffed but welcoming hole. Jackson would drop a few coins next to the pair and lift the young earl up returning him to his bed.
His mother knew of her son's taste. She didn't curtail him even from the young age when his urges should have been controlled. She well knew that many young men went through similar stages. Her only worry was of the possible gossip. She hoped that he'd find a suitable man to be his one, true friend. She imagined the 2 men settling into an almost domestic routine. It was not to be.
Richard's taste had expanded to even younger men, barely into puberty. There were many such around the city. Every street corner in some places in the city might have a dozen such waiting to be asked "the time of day?" It was the code, well known to many for an invitation for an encounter. Subtle references would convey the details of the desired encounter to the interested parties.
But many men, those with positions, knew of men who trafficked in these youths. A trusted servant could be sent with a coded message to find the desired one. It was well known that there were very few virgins in the ranks of the regiments. Most had been well used by their tutors or school teachers before enlisting for the king's shilling. Once in the service they were at the command of older officers to be used as they wished with no recourse for any kind of justice.
At an early age Richard found that his good looks attracted many a tutor or teacher. He even managed to seduce a few of the city's many clergy into his bed. These latter were very appreciative of his offering of his young body to slack their lust.
