A Bird Among Serpants

1.10

The door opens quickly, the emperor walking in without warning, "How are you?"

"As well as I can be."

"Yeah, that's reasonable." He speaks in a monotone voice before doubling back on what I just said, "Wait what? No.. no calling me master?"

"I haven't been doing that in every sentence for awhile now.." I smirk, guess no one told him that Tyria's saving grace spell worked, "Heard you yelled at your mage after seeing me broken. You know, if you care for me you can really just say it. You don't have to be all distant and terrifying."

He looks down and walks away, waving for someone else to come in as my fear skyrockets. I thought he was going to say more. Did I hit a nerve I wonder? Shit, he thought I was broken, what if he just waved in guards to bring me to a hores house. Fuck, wait.

I almost call out to the emperor, the only thing stopping me being the face of one of my closest, Tel. Without thinking, I immediately run up to and hug him, my entire body getting ready to collapse just upon being near him. I know that it would be better to stay distant and act as if I have a problem that way the emperor will notice and think that's the case. Well, I guess I wouldn't exactly be acting. We have been having problems. Either way, I just can't bring myself to. Being around someone who I can trust not to torcher me or report me for making one misstep feels amazing. I miss my friends and family so much.

His hands reach around my back as I feel tears begin to slide down my cheeks. I don't care if that little guard is in the room, I don't care if the emperor can hear this, I just missed him so much. I don't want it to only be any hour, I want to go back home and be with him constantly. I can't stand to be apart from him any longer.

"Verett, Verett are you okay?" Tel quietly whispers in my ear while sitting myself and him both on the bed, "What have they done to you, it isn't anything permanent is it? I swear, every moment I am working on a way to get you out, okay? The country isn't willing to go to war to get you back, but we are talking about trading land for you. I'm going to be a lord soon and I'll trade anything to be with you-"

"N-no, no, Tel." I manage to calm myself down and pull away, realizing that me breaking down is doing nothing but adding to his fears, "I'm fine, I've been doing fine."

He tilts up my head quickly against my will, revealing the bruising that I have on my throat, "He strangled you? Verett, what else has he done? I know you don't want to tell me because you don't want me to worry, but please just tell me what he's done."

"N-no, I can't let you ruin your family just for the chance of getting me out of here. Even if you do, there's no guarantee that the emperor will hold up his end of the bargain."

"But I have to try, Verett. I have to try-"

"No, Tel, no. Don't. Please, just don't. I can take care of myself, I have been taking care of myself, you need to trust in me. Okay, trust in me."

Tears begin to speed down his face, "Tell me what he did then. Tell me, please, I just need the truth. I need to know what's been happening, to know how serious it is. Please, Verett, I.." He pauses, myself using the time to look around my surroundings. Shit, Percy is in here, isn't he?

I speak loud enough for the youngster to hear, "Percy, could you give us some privacy?"

The child runs out of the room as quickly as he can as he can causing Tiel to smirk, "What a protector?"

"He's just a kid and I've locked him in there for a day now." I lean in and kiss him before he can respond further, pinning his body against the bed at a desperate attempt to be closer to him. After a few seconds I pull away, both of us panting quietly, "I missed this..."

"I can tell." He flips us over and kisses me again, myself wrapping my arms around him tightly. It feels good, it feels so much better. My body isn't exactly reacting differently, but it more just feels so good to consent. To have this happen when I want it to happen.

He gets up quietly and smiles, his hands dipping into my pants to harden me. It feels good to lean into it and want it as I quietly grip the bedsheets, "Tel.."

"Yeah?"

"I'm yours. Forever and always, no matter what I say or what happens, I'm with you. Okay?"

"Alright." He smiles and kisses me once again, "Forever and always."

He begins at my tip, lightly circling until my precum starts flowing and then working down my length. It's good that he seems to understand that we can't do it like we normally do, that would take too much time. Time that someone could use to walk in.

I go to reach my hand down, but he stop it and puts it against the bedding, "If you're not in the mood then we don't have to-" I cut myself off with a muted moan, him kissing my neck quietly.

"I just want to make you feel good today, when I feel good I always end up as the bottom. It's fine, just enjoy it."

I smile quietly and rub my fingers along his back, "Okay, I love you."

He kisses my neck a final time then kisses himself down my torso, eventually making his way to my cock and putting my tip in his mouth. I feel my cheeks flushing it feels so good. Tel's always so gentle, so caring of what I'm feeling. Even when he's pounding into me if I ever show a slight sign of not enjoying it he'll stop. It's as if he's healing me from all of the rape I've just experienced with every moment I'm near him.

I glance at the clock anxiously, realizing that I'm about to cum far to early. It just feels so good. I've gotten so used to fighting anything even remotely simular to this, I can't hold it.

He seems a bit surprised with me cumming quicker than usual and swallows it, pulling off my now tired phrame and kissing my tip softly and stroking a hand on my leg.

"Sorry, you just feel so good."

"It's fine, I'll make you feel even better. Cum as much as you want."
