"Broken Shards"

I need to taste the blood
Go on, draw another line
We can cross this time."

[ Essek Thelyss: Shadowhand to the Dynasty.

One who reached further then the Luxon would allow, who would do absolutely anything for knowledge. Oh no, the man did not care for power, not really. He wanted to cast himself into the portal of knowing, he wanted to surrender himself to books and learning without having to deal with the mundanities of socio-politics that all of the Kryn engaged in. It was tedious and it filled him with sickness even as he plastered on an urbane smile for all and sundry to see.

Within the Dynasty, it was customary to take pets of the Empire; they were brought in across the border of Asarius, across the mountains and into the Dynasty. There were Dynasty born pets on the other side, both lost to the ravages of the other's civilization, generally never to be seen again.

Essek had never really had an interest to begin with when it came to pets; at the market he carefully avoided the slave blocks where those not of the Dynasty were paraded around. However, it had come to this-- it had come to his trading of the Beacon, and in return he recieved a Volstrucker to serve him. And yet, for all of that, Essek Thelyss had not thought he would receive a broken Volstrucker.

In fair trade, he and recieved a dossier on the man in question and had perused it with only a small semblance of annoyance while Trent Ikithon had assured him that a man like him could be rebuilt, the honeyed words of a silken snake which Essek recognized.

After all did not a predator recognize another predator? So now he held in his household a man whom had to be guarded carefully, though Essek was not cruel despite how he imagined Dynasty pets were treated, the cage that he had placed this Volstrucker named Bren within, well it was comfortable-- he'd seen pictures of Vergossen so he supposed it must be far better than that place. But he had not precisely interacted with him-- most of his unseen servants were given the walking of him, the care and maintenance of him.

Perhaps because he did not precisely know what to do with him, or what use he had for something broken. Though he arguably did not know what manner of broken the Volstrucker was, but after a week-- he decided perhaps it was time to summon him and see for himself; acertain what sort of work was cut out for him.

If this man was worth putting back together again.

So it was one evening, he had the Empire man summoned to his chambers. ]

[ despite the fact that they had just had completely nasty and disrespectful sex, it did not take from the moment thay there was the vibe of something else just underneath the surface layers that wound tightly around each other-- they had managed to peel each other like onion skins and then wonder at they state they were in.

Essek lingered there with Bren's seed dripping through his fingers, he could even hear the audible sound of it as it hit the carpetted floor-- and one could blame it on a drow's keen hearing.

He did not dare taste though he was curious about it, about all acts now.

There would ne time for that.. later, they would hopefully have more than enough time to explore each other thoroughly. Although Essek did do a favor to Bren in the cast another bout of prestidigitate, so that he could assist in cleaning up his pet-- he did not think Bren would have a problem sleeping this night. ]

Thank you, Pet... for the gift, it is comforting to know that I am not broken. [ as he had been told over and over again ]

[Bren had lost his ability for higher thought as yet another orgasm was wrung out of his body by his master. He heard himself whimpering in the aftermath, just barely holding himself up on shaky arms and shakier legs. He would not complain though. It could not have been more perfect, having his Master inside him, even now knowing he was full to near on overflowing with the other man's seed.

Slowly his heart remembered how to best in some approximation of rhythm, his lungs found proper breath and his scattered thoughts returned from the war.]

You are not broken, Master. Nothing of you is broken.

[And Bren should know. He himself was incredibly broken, and therefore something of a subject matter expert on it.]

I should be thanking you. So... thank you, Master.

[ There was only a little bit of chagrin at having taken his Pet like some sort of wild animal there in the middle of the floor when there had been a perfectly servicable bed within the room, he continued to prestidigitate as many times as needed-- a soft smile appearing on his lips. ]

One can perhaps be a little bit broken on the inside, there is much you do not know about me Chathtiu. [ He leaned forward them to run his fingers through Bren's hair in a manner that was affectionate, a proper petting for a very good boy. ] Things that I only know about myself, but you are very sweet to say so.

[ He started to gather up their cast aside clothing and then handed some garments for Bren to take hold of. ] Now, it is time for sleep for real as I do have a long day ahead--

[ And Bren could laze around the quarters and read and nap to his hearts content, tomorrow would be a pampered housepet sort of day for him ]
