[$] My Body is for Your Pleasure, What Ever it May Be

[VampuricWerewolf]

Leo looked down when the prince said lafe had been too cruel to him, the man didn't even know a persentage of what leo had been forced to live through over the past six years. the kisses drew him out of dark memories and he looked up into the silver eyes for a moment before smiling and dropping them. the prince's statement, however, was worrying. "master-i, forgive me for speaking so. i do not wish to-speak so freely..." but the master seemed to almost encourage it and had Leo not been traied to do whatever it took to please the master? maybe all this master wished, for now at least, was to be spoken to and with. "master, nothing would please me more than to remain at your side forever," a bold faced lie that none would see past, though it made his stomach clench to say it, "but you're kingdom needs must have an heir. it would cause much unrest if my master were to remain childless upon the throne. your wishes of my being an object of your desire are wods any bentien wishes to hear," another well hidden lie, "but surely there will be another some day who can provide you a child with whom you will share your true life."

"I have three younger sisters who will no doubt produce heirs. If I fail to produce one, the eldest of their children will take the throne, and the bloodline will continue regardless, because it will be their kingdom, not the husband's." he explained, but truth be told he'd hate to put his sister's through that. They already hated all the teaching and etiquette and not being able to wear pants. Elliot's heart would sink to hear them complain about being a queen, such were the decisions he had to make. Whatever else Lily said went ignored as he thought about the three growing up. True while he would be the heir, they still had appearances to keep up, and not only would they be compared to him but each other, rivalry was enough to tear anyone apart.

How would they react as young women, if he chose not to marry and said that whomever gave birth first would be the heir and ruler after his death? Would they submit to their fate, or put off having children? What if he died and no one was established after him? Well of course it would be the first born of the triplets, but still. He leaned back into the seat, concern and worry on his face as he looked out the window. To keep the girls out of his sort of lifestyle he would need to produce an heir, and that would mean marriage to a noble woman or another princess, but that would involve merging kingdoms and that never worked out quite well.

"Your words are true, it's quite a predicament, one I'd hate for the triplets to be in." He mumbled, the lantern emitting a teal color as he thought, crossing his leg and seeming to turn away from Lily. "I would have to produce an heir..."  

[VampuricWerewolf]

Leo watched the prince think from the corner of his eyes and knew better than to interupt the other's musings. instead he took this time to go over what he'd learned of the prince so far. the prince did not enjoy the company of women on a personal level but he had sisters for whom he cared. he didn't seem to keen on the idea of having a pleasure slave at first, but was seemingly warming up to it as time went by, something that leo sometimes found with those new to sex. and leo went over what he knew od the prince's kingdom. it was powerful but peaceful and slavery was no longer practised. however, leo wasn't called a 'slave', he was a bentien. it was the exact something, but worded differently and with different explinations added on top of that his role would be accepted. he'd snuck a book about the prince's kingdom when he'd learned he was to be given away to him. they had caught him and his beating had been severe indeed, but it had been worth it. at least leo wouldn't be in completel culture shock when they arrived. his master spoke, but it was only musings so leo didn't reply. instead he lay his head on hsi master's knee and simply sat there, waiting to see if the master would require anything more of him.  

[Your Missing Period]

Elliot was quiet for the next hour, the same thoughts circling in his head while new ones form and joined onto the spinning path. His siblings, an heir, Lily, his mother, where he had to go to next. He'd be resting back in the castle for a week before going to Loslith about a water shortage? He was sure they had nobles taking care of their districts, but this drought had been in affect all summer according to Noble Bastien, with barely an inch of rain. If it rained during his break it would save the heir a lot of trouble, and instead could go see the good health. If they had a hot summer no doubt they would have a frigid winter. he'd have to help them prepare.

And his thoughts kept twirling, stroking Leo's hair continuously, pausing and letting it twirl around his fingers until he couldn't twirl. Then he'd just shake his hand and free the hair, brushing his fingers through it to gently get rid of any knots before repeating the cycle. Judging by all the farming people outside the window they were going to hit a town soon, but the carriage stopped beforehand making the prince stare curiously out the window before the door was opened. "The guards must not be happy with you."

"Not at all." the footman admitted. "But we've hit small roadblock, no. Stay inside it's actually up ahead in Cathers. It appears that they're celebrating a festival or two today, and we can avoid it but once we enter our borders Harsgreaves will be celebrating a similar one. However theirs starts in the evening and lasts a week. It will begin around the same time we arrive, maybe a little beforehand."

And that would be the beginning of the mountains, so going around it would be dangerous. "Well then we can go around Cathers, but once we hit Harsgreaves we will spend the night there and depart early in the morning before the festivities begin." He ordered, a small nod from the man before the door closed, leaving the two alone again. Looking down at Leo he traced the shape of the other's ear. "You've got cute ears. They're so tiny." he was truly entertained by them. Sure he'd seen all sorts of people and species, but these had to be the smallest he'd seen. It was cute.  

[VampuricWerewolf]

Leo had been half dozing as they traveled. the continuous soft strokes and silenced had lulled him to rest, something any experienced bentien took at any opportunity. it didn't matter if you were exhausted, if the master still desired you, you continued to go until he'd had enough. so get a little sleep whenever you could was the rule. Leo had perfected sleeping with his eyes half open so it looked as if he mearly had his eyes downcast as he slept. when the carriage stopped he woke, but made no indication of any change to him demeanor. he listened carefully to the footman as he said what was going on, but once the door shut again he glanced up to his master, only to have his ears teased. he shivered slightly and let his eyes half close. "it pleases me that they are agreeable to you, master." he siad softly. the way the other was stroking them was new to Leo. no one had really taken notice of his ear lest it was to box them or to bite them during sex. the one with facinating ears here was his master, but he didn't dare bring them up or even look at them for long. they looked as if they would be soft-maybe he could 'accedentally' touch them sometime to see if they were as soft as they looked.  

[Your Missing Period]

"Everything I say seems to please you. Makes me wonder if it really does." But he caught the other's eyes flick upwards to his own raised ears. Did she like them? Elliot didn't think they were unusual, but that's because he was raised with them. Thinking about this he began to massage the other's ear unconsciously. Then again, many people did like his ears, as a child they had been touched and petted and rubbed so frequently by any women that walked through the kingdom. He used to hate it, but he was older and no one really did it except his sisters.

Lifting her head from his lap he sat again on the floor, re-thinking his half-planned scheme, silver eyes looking at the bentien. "Miss Lily, would you be so kind as to pet me? It's an odd request but it's a little nostalgic sometimes." And bowed his head toward her, expectant. She couldn't really say no, could she? It was an order of sorts, a gently worded one. Hm, but he did wonder, she seemed pleased about everything, what words were truths and which were lies? How curious indeed. "Miss Lily, I would like to buy you a gift to welcome you to the Nalenyr Kingdom, once we cross the borders. Is there anything you would like?" Would she avoid it or begin crying? Perhaps she'd be shocked, it seemed she had little other emotions aside from those three.  

[VampuricWerewolf]

Leo was surprised when the prince returned tot he floor once more, but he was even more surprised to hear the prince wanted to be 'pet'. "Like this master?" he asked softly as he tentatively reached up and touched just the tip of his fingers to the side of the prince's ear. when he didn't receive any reprimand he became a little more bold and began to stroke the silky ear, a tiny smile on his lips at the texture. "it's so soft, master-" a gift? his hnd flinched back for a moment, but he had been told to pet the master so he continued to stroke the other's ears with long, slow movements. he needed to think about this one. it could very easily be a trick, a test set up by the prince to trick Leo. he was all to familiar with such traps and he didn't think he could stomach another beating on top of his already aching back. there was one thing he desired more than anything else, one thing he'd do anything to obtain, but he didn't dare even think of the word for he knew the longing for it would show in his face. but maybe-there was something else he could ask for. something he just might not be punished for, "Master? could-may i have a book?" he asked softly, keeping his eyes down, but careful to continue petting until ordered to stop. "i-know it is forbidden for bentein to read, and i beg you indulge me in this one thing...it can even be a children's book if it would please you." but to have one book, no matter how childish, that he could read without fear of punishment, without having to hide and pray no one came looking, it would mean a great deal to this once avid reader. "if i ask to much, i am sorry, my master. i shall never bring such a thing up again."  

[Your Missing Period]

The ear flinched back at the touch before perking forward again. It had been so long it felt a little alien to the man, but he continued to sit, silver eyes looking up as she questioned the gift, but her hands were back and his eyes closed, leaning into the stroking before the smallest of purrs passed his lips. He was a happy cat, nuzzling and shifting his head into her hand, the other perking as she started to speak. A book? He felt bad for the poor thing, it would be so hard to break her from her shell. "You may have a book. I don't understand why it's forbidden. How can I have an intellectual conversation if you cannot read on what I am talking about?" And removed his ears from her hand, sitting up again.

"Will that be tolerable? You will have to read books that I tell you to read, but on occasion I shall give you book purely for your entertainment, Miss Lily. Think of it as a long term order." His ears were tingling, Elliot quickly moving his hands to rub away the tingles in his furry appendages. "When we his Harsgreaves I shall have the footman find you a book since I am now allowed to leave my quarters. Anything specific?" he asked, letting go of his ears, them flicking forward and back before swiveling a few moments, finally deciding to rest on the top of his head, perked forward at the slave.  

[VampuricWerewolf]

Leo let his hand return to his lap when it was pulled away from the master's ears, but he missed the feeling of the other's hair a little. he nodded when Elliot said he would have to read what was given to him, but he didn't care. he was allowed to read! and more-it sounded like the master was going to let him read more than one book! was it possible? could this really be true? he smiled and leaned over, once more placing his hand on the master's chest, but instead of laying his head on the prince's shoulder, Leo gently kissed him. even though it was just the touch of lips to lips, leo was still fairly skilled in even just a simple act and he knew his 'light' kiss had great effects on even the toughest to please masters. he pulled away and smiled warmly, "thank you master. it is more than i could have ever dreamed of. you truely are a kind master. i do not care what kind of book, master. anything you deem fit for me to read i will gladly accept." he lay his head on the other's chest near hsi hand and closed his eyes, hiding the tiny ray of true happiness that forced it's way into him. but that happiness brought great fear. for his hopes to be this high, only for them to be brought crashing down when the master's trap set-that was worse than a dozen beatings. Leo was afraid of that fall-but he couldn't stop tht tiny little hope. right now it was all he had.  

[Your Missing Period]

The lantern turned a bright red, Elliot's own face turning pink, ears flattening directly against his skull as the other just barely grazed his lips with their own. "You're quite welcome, Miss Lily. It's the very least I could do." Could the bentien hear the prince's heart trying to pull out of his chest, hammering away at his rib cage? He could tone down the emotion expressed on his face, but he couldn't hide what the lantern nor his own physical body showed, and that made it all the more embarrassing. He was a man, of course he'd been kissed, but just that small one out of happiness, it made him shudder.

But, but the heir had a breakthrough, Lily liked to read. Putting any physical reactions aside, the teen enjoyed reading. He may not have opened him up, in a manner of speaking, but he had cracked him. But it was curious though, when born into slavery one was generally not educated. Did they train their bentien's in the basics, or had he lived a live previous to his current occupation? Elliot had no idea, but it was worth looking into some more. True, some women had gone from healthy lifestyles to prostitution to make money, but slaves wouldn't see any of it. How curious indeed.

With the lantern now tinted pink and heart calming down, an arm wrapped around the male and hugged him, the other being used to maintain balance at the added weight on him. "Just don't read too much. You can get a headache and your eyes never forgive you. I'll have a book pulled out when we stop in Harsgreaves, all right?"  

[VampuricWerewolf]

Leo could hear the master's heart trying to jump out of his chest and held back a tiny little smile. he defiantly would take a little time to get used to having a pleasure slave, but in that time Leo'd get a tiny break at least. he noticed that one of the prince's arms were behind him and most likely propping the two of them up so he adjusted his weight, taking the majority of it onto his legs so he wouldn't force the prince to bare it. it was a trick of balance and something Leo almost did naturally. the light from the lantern, though, had not gone unnoticed tot he bentein. when in his position, you learned to take everything around you in. often times it was your ability to read that master that was the only thing that stood between you and a beating.

the lantern's light seemed to correlate with the master's mood and it this observation was true, it would be a great ally to Leo. if he learned to read the colors of the lantern as well as his master he would be able to see if the master had a hidden anger or was displeased with something Leo did. could things really be that easy? perhaps. "Master, do you wish to sit upon the bench, surely the floor is not comforatble for you." he pulled away to allow the prince to move once more to the bench and it's cushions. he nodded at the warning, "yes, master. i promise to be careful. my reading will not hamper my ability to pleasure you in any way." he nodded and smiled when the prince said that he'd have a book brought upon their arrival to the next town.

the master had said to not read too much. did that mean he was only allowed to read for a few moments each day or was he just to be careful to not strain himself? it was something that would have to be a trail and error. before-and it hurt to think of such times, he would read for hours. staying up until the early mornings, with naught but some lumos moss to light the pages, just to finish the book. his happiest moments had books and stories telling involved. "master? do you like poetry or stories? i have been trained in reciting such things if it would please you."  

[Your Missing Period]

"do you not like me sitting on the floor because you're taller?' Elliot asked back, eyes glancing upward while a small smile was on his lips. You got used to be short, the Reta King had taken pride in having to look down at the prince. You got used to it, he could accept Lily being taller, despite the fact he was still growing and would no doubt be six foot, then he'd have an issue or two, or four inches of an issue, but he could ignore it. "What? That's not what I meant, reading doesn't hamper your ability in your occupation. I was just trying to say that you need to keep yourself healthy." But with that he did move up again on the seat, lantern back to its generic white color.

And speaking of health, he hadn't eaten breakfast, and it would take quite a while before reaching Harsgreaves. Hopefully there was a smaller village in between so everyone, including the horses, could rest. Maybe a small afternoon nap, since they were reaching the border the day wouldn't be so hot, they were climbing uphill anyway into the mountains. "I do enjoy stories and poetry, but I never quite have the time to read them, despite being able to squeeze out twenty-five hours from a twenty-four hour day." He joked, chuckling. "If you would like to recite some you may. it would be enjoyable if you did, actually." and she'd stop talking about pleasuring him. Until Lily admitted to being of the male species, he was not going anywhere past that earlier kiss. Elliot would make sure of it, and his sisters, not that they would know they were stopping Lily.  

[VampuricWerewolf]

Leo smiled when the prince granted him permision to recite a poem. "if i may, i shall recite for you, master, 'The Eagle and the Raven'. he closed his eyes and took a breath before he started to speak, his voice flowing with the rhyme and making it almost a song.

Eagle’s eye watches as swords crash,
Far below lies Evernight.
Wights dash,
As Faeran might,
Dispels night.

Raven’s eye watches as grim-faced mortals,
March iron-shod through endless dark,
And into a portal
That leads to Evernight.

One whose true identity was hidden,
Sheds his mask as he was bidden.
No longer does he hide in the night,
True powers brought out into the light.

Older brother, high king,
Unknown fate, seal ring.
As an eagle he bides,
As the Raven Prince hides.

Two masked royals,
Fighting against the other,
Brother against brother.
One, the younger,
Filled with hate and jealousy.
The other, the older,
Fair in the eye of the beholder.
Both are perilous, unknown.
But to one girl, of one fact she is sure,
That the Crown Prince, the younger is corroded,
And that the high king is stern but fair.
But now she is not so sure,
Now she thinks that both are cold-hearted monsters.
Not to be trusted.
But are they?
Could one be… good?

An army of mortal men,
Have marched to Evernight.
Now they are locked in battle,
Fighting against the Raven Prince’s wights.
Eagles’ eye watches high,
Where no one else can hear,
The High King’s warriors,
The Faeran knights,
Whose hearts are clear,
Are on the side of the mortals,
But it is wise to keep to yourself,
In the presence of the creatures of eldritch.

he opened his eyes when he finished, a far away look in them. the poem held special meaning for him, one that was a secret that only he and the poem's creature knew. he blinked it away and looked up at the prince, smiling. "would you care for another? forgive me, i recited quite the sad poem. a happier maybe?"  

[Your Missing Period]

Elliot listened closely, silver eyes watching the bentien as she spoke, watching as her face seem to fill with emotion during each transition, of pain, sadness, confusion. Her voice rang with it, her emotions seeping through his skin, the lantern turning a deep blue as he listened, intrigued. The story was nerve-wracking, depressing, it made him want to know more, practically hanging onto her every word until she finished, bending over and hugging his knees to look at her. "I enjoyed the poem despite the melancholy. Reward." And kissed her cheek twice. "One is for the songs you sang earlier. Perhaps I should use books as a reward, they'd last longer." And sat up, smiling down at her before stroking her hair again.

"If you would like to continue with melancholy, then so be it. If you would like to rest, you may go ahead and rest on the opposing seat. We've still got a long ways to travel, Miss Lily."  

[VampuricWerewolf]

Leo blushed prettily, the light pink making his pale cheeks almost glow, at the kisses. "i enjoy this reward as well, master." he said softly, smiling as he almost purred at the strokes of his hair. he rested his head on Elliot's knees once more and closed his eyes. "i am content at your feet, master." he said in reply to the offer of sitting on the other side. it was seem strange to do so. t face the master in sich a way. besides-it was as Elliot had pointed out before. he was taller than his master by a little ways and to sit on the chair would make it noticable. he didn't want to chance offending or annoying the master by doing so. besides, he was far more used to sitting at his master's feet than he was to sitting on proper chairs.

"Hmm, this poem is called 'The Exile' and might follow the same thread, master..." once more he took a small breath and began to recite.

Full many leagues of foreign soil I’ve trod.
At last, I would reclaim my native sod.
Alas it seems I cannot find my way.
Exiled, my heart grows heavy, day by day.
And wondrous as these hills and vales may be,
They’re not the majestic realms I crave to see-
The dream’d-of world in childhood’s state of bliss-
My land of birth; that is the place I miss.
So am I doomed to seek, forever banned?
A stranger wandering in this strange land?
The strongest measures cannot ease the pain.
Oh, will I ever see my home again?

another poem by the same creator that Leo had been forced to remember and given explicite orders to always rcite them before any other poem to every master.
