Silk Roads

Chapter 21

Marvolo had a dark smile (hidden by his fingers) the moment he heard the satisfying sound of wood smacking wood. The fact that they were finally free from prying eyes the second the doors of his bedchamber slammed shut was something he cherished every day.

Privacy was truly a hard thing to find these days - even in his own manor - when everything he did was keenly observed with awe/fear by his ever-growing band of followers.

The sound also indicated that this was high time for him to stop playing the part of giving the highest form of rewards in the form of pleasuring others.

Although... this was something hard to obtain since he hated the thought of touching someone unworthy of him, even for a short while.

His companion in bed for tonight, Abraxas, was looking at him with excitement that was borderline disturbing. It was revolting how eager these people were to have a taste of him - yet he also felt extremely dominating that his appearance alone was enough to intoxicate someone to lose control of themselves.

With a playful smirk that made the blonde's eyes dilate with desire, he tilted the Malfoy Lord's chin to forcefully establish eye contact, all the while his thumb moved in circles as if to relax his partner for the night.

It took no longer than a minute before the blond was put into his control. Abraxas became dazed, and as soon as Marvolo's fingers had left the man's chin, he fell onto the bed with a soft thump - similar to a puppet who had their strings cut.

A snap of his fingers later made a few adult toys appear beside of the blonde. They were all situated for males more than females.

"Pleasure yourself to exhaustion." Was all he said as he made his way to his secondary desk, clothes already on his person.

It was with practiced ease that he ignored his ex- classmate's wanton moaning in order to stare at the two photos of his... family members.

The one with the both of them in one frame was his current favorite. The two younger Gaunts were whispering to one another secretly, tiny smiles on their faces, before they turned to wave at him cutely.

Without being aware of his actions, he caressed their cheeks as he thought of them - mainly; how to meet them without scaring them off. He knew he was intimidating.

The younger of the two, Marchosias, wouldn't be much of a problem since he was still young (easily manipulated by sweets and smiles), so perhaps having an accidentalencounter would be best. A bump in the road would lead to many other pathways.

But time was also not on his side - like so many others.

He knew he had to act fast because of the latest call. Marcaunon was in a bad state when they had first met in that horrible yet realistic dream, and if he had unintentionally activated the call a second time with such broken and empty eyes...

Marvolo's eyebrows knitted as he stared unseeingly at the moving photo.

This dimension was truly interesting. Marcaunon pushed his rose-tinted glasses up (and made them glint menacingly when it reflected the lights at the right angle) as he hid a small smile with his fingers.

After they had gotten mixed and tangled up with their currently unknown company, the three of them were brought to a decent enough candy store – Urahara Shoten, the sign had read – but not before being thoroughly amused at the drama that had unfolded atop the magic flying blanket-carpet thing.

It seemed that one of the teenagers had been manipulated badly by the blonde haired man wearing a bucket hat and the latter had bowed his head low and apologized. He didn't quite catch what the topic was about, but he didn't really care to ask.
