Chapter 2

( Kazahaya's P.O.V )

I knew he was watching me. He always did and I always took extra long to clean his room and always bent over more then I needed to. On occasion, when I knew he wasn't watching I smelt the garments I was supposed to be hanging in his closet. Why did I have to fall for the prince? Why not a nice cook or gardener? Someone in my social standing?

Perhaps I wouldn't have minded the prince's attentions if I had been able to return some of it, but I was an onyx in the brotherhood. I apologize; I seem to have gotten ahead of myself. There are three levels in the Amancle Brotherhood. While we are all virgins until marriage, there are different intensities of our commitment to the brotherhood. Rubies are the first level. They keep only their virginity till marriage. Then there are sapphires who save their virginity and their first kiss for their spouse. I am on the last level: onyx. We are not permitted to have sex, kiss anyone or even speak before marriage and even then if my wife/husband does not wish me to speak, I can't. So now you see my problem. I cannot even tell the prince of my affection to get rejected, let alone accepted.

Yesterday I watched him from my window after I finished work. He likes to sit in the garden and read. I know that he knows I watch him because he always leaves the book on the bench for me to collect when I pick herbs for meals. This day he got hot and shed his cloak and tunic and I watched the sweat drip down his chest and roll over his erect nipples. I felt myself go hard and retreated from the window and into the sanctuary of my covered bed. I thought of the beautiful prince sitting out in the garden and what it might feel like to have him touch me as I started to stroke myself. I imagine being able to kiss those lips, to be able to scream his name as he brought me to the brink and past it. My lips parted in a silent cry of climatic release as I imagined it was Prince Rikuo coaxing the pleasure from my burning centre. Streams of thick, pearly white cum shot out of me, across my sheets, some landing on the floor. Then it was over, and I fell back into my pillows in time to hear the cook yell at me to get my ass down there to collect herbs for dinner.

Today I finished cleaning the prince's room faster then I usually did. I felt him watching me again today and I liked it, but then I felt someone else watching me. I ignored it though, I knew who it was. It was the younger prince. He sometimes got me sent up to wash the floors when they weren't dirty, just so he could look at my ass. It was demeaning! I knew it wasn't about that today, though. He brought his friends from court and whenever he did that they spent their time ridiculing me. I ignored them hoping they would go away. I knew something was different when they moved around me enclosing me in a circle. One of them stepped forward and examined my necklace. It was a simple little thing, a thin leather thong with my medallion and six tiny, perfect pearls strung on it. The medallion was a tiny gold thing containing a small chip of onyx to represent my level and I was really starting to get uncomfortable with the way the young man was looking at it.

"We got ourselves a member of the brotherhood here boys." He said softly. "This should be interesting"

Someone grabbed me from behind and covered my mouth. It was then I realized what they intended to do. The young man holding my necklace laughed and showed it to the man holding on to me.

"Don't bother," he said still laughing. "What's he gonna do? Scream?"
