The Path of a Black Sheep in a Fantasy World (BL)

Chapter 64

Two men were speaking at a table not far from Adam's, whispering to each other. The warrior only had to strain his ears a little to hear their words, though, as he had quite the good hearing. They were in an inn in the middle of the city, one where gossip often led the discussion when tipsy enough, which was the two men's case.

"Have you heard? The Duke of the North is looking for people with ice magic." One man with a big nose and wide ears said, hiccuping between sentences. His friend, a bald man with a vicious face, shook his head.

"After his fiance ran away, it seems like it made his plan go awry. Suspicious things are happening in his territory, whispers of experiments are going around." Big Nose continued, wiggling his eyebrows mysteriously. Bald Head scoffed, seemingly not believing his friend's words.

"And pray tell where you heard such absurdities." He asked in a false gentleman tone, humouring his friend. Adam also wanted to know where he got his information, as it concerned him, the fiance, and maybe the strange phenomenon Evan and him had seen in monsters.

"I'm seeing one of the maids there, she is quite chatty and doesn't know how to keep secrets. She heard her master yelling that his plan was wasted now that his ice magician ran away. He started looking for more ice users, but it seems like it won't be the same deal, or so he said." Big Nose explained while struggling to speak, his tongue tripping in his mouth. Bald Head hummed, looking more shocked about the fact that his ugly friend had found himself a girlfriend than the fact that the Duke was being weird. Everyone knew for a while that the black-haired man was not right in the head. Bald Head then asked about the experiments to entertain his friend who was gulping down more beer. The man burped loudly before answering.

"She heard strange noises coming from underground like animals weeping and screaming. No one has access to the cells downstairs apart from the Duke, and he is often seen going down there with a maniacal smirk. That's where he brought his past wives and husbands, but now that he is celibate again, there should be no one there. There's also the fact that he has mysterious boxes delivered to his castle, and that more monsters have been spotted around his humble abode. There's something fishy there, man..." Big Nose slurred out before crumbling on the table, face first into his plate still half full of food. Bald Head made a disgusted face before rolling his eyes, standing up to help his friend up and then dragging him away after paying.

In the corner, Adam pulled his hood further down, making sure to hide his whole face as the two men walked past his table to head to the back door.

Once the coast was clear, the warrior paid and then hurried out of the inn. He needed to talk with Evan about the information he just got. He may not know about the Duke's goal, but knowing his taste, it couldn't bring any good.

Adam found his lover and their son sitting outside the inn, Blaze in his fox form. The shifter was lying on the giant's knee, his eyes closed as he enjoyed some scalp massage.

Evan raised his eyes to look at his master, only for his eyebrows to furrow as he felt the serious air surrounding his partner. Without a word, he took Blaze in his arms and went inside the inn, heading for their room. Adam followed after him and closed the door shut, putting down his hood to reveal a grave look. Blaze, seeing such expression on his master's face, immediately jumped down from the giant's arms and hurried in the bathroom. He had learnt his lesson from his father, in those times, he needed to leave the couple alone.

"What's wrong?" Evan asked, cupping his lover's face with tenderness, but also firmness. Rather than being gentle, the giant was much more used to forcing the answers he wanted out of others. Nonetheless, he knew that he needed to treat Adam with more love and care than others. He was his boyfriend, after all. Thus, he strained himself not to tie up Adam and instead let him speak when he wanted. It was hard to control his impatience, he was much more on edge with things concerning his master.

Adam thought about how to explain everything, but even as he racked his brain, he couldn't find the exact words to put on what he heard to make sure he was clear. Still, seeing the dark look forming in the depth of Evan's eyes, he knew he needed to speak, even if it wasn't clear.

Therefore, Adam vomited the words out of his mouth, waves of words forming a sea of incomprehension as Evan tried to understand and gather the pieces of the puzzle which was the message of his lover. Adam wasn't great with words, and it took some time for the giant to be able to understand the mess of syllables that the warrior was trying to say.

When he did complete the puzzle, however, the slave was livid.

Adam had spoken of his past, but it was when Evan wasn't in love with him. The giant had registered the notion of arranged marriage and then shut it out in the back of his mind. Now, it was a different matter. Just thinking of this sadist laying his hands on his sweet hedgehog made him see red.

Recognizing the deep fury growing in his lover, Adam hurried to wrap his arms around Evan's neck, bringing him down as he went on his tiptoes. The warrior clashed his lips on his lover's, sending them both into a passionate kiss. Fuelled by his anger, Evan was meaner than usual, biting Adam's plump lips until blood drew out, not caring of the pained moans escaping the warrior's mouth nor about the bruises he was surely leaving on his muscled thighs as he held them close. Tears of pain and pleasure marked Adam's cheeks as he tried to breath in between the incessant attacks.

Blaze peeked with one eye behind the bathroom's door, worried about the sound his dad was making, but the dark look that his father sent him from above Adam's head quickly made him stumble back and hide into the bathtub.

Evan finally let go of his partner's lips after one last peck, enjoying the flushed look on his lover's face, eyes teary and lips bruised. He licked the trail of saliva and blood flowing down Adam's luscious lips and then pecked them one last time.

"You are mine." The possessive giant said, a dangerous glint in his hazelnut eyes that made shivers of excitement and fear crawl up Adam's spine.

Hey dear readers, best not to poke the sleeping bear *wink*
