Desert Rose
A young slave wearing a light red, silk skirt and a smiliar shirt hurried into the kitchens of an Egyptian palace. It had started raining. It rarely ever rained in Egypt. He was happy to be able to see it again ever since he was brought here. Once inside, he shook his head, trying to get rid of the wet droplets that had soaked his hair.
I dream of rain.
I dream of gardens in the desert sand.
I wake in pain.
I dream of love as time runs through my hand.
Pharaoh Atem sat in the throne room, barely managing to stay awake through another one of Isis' lectures about agriculture. He let a silent sigh escape past his lips. He missed his little slave, Yugi. 'Yugi'. Such a strange name. He can't blame the child though. He hadn't come from Egypt. At least, thats what Set had told him.
"Pharaoh!"
Atem jumped and
looked at Isis. "Yes?"
The woman sighed.
"Forgive me Isis. My mind is not with me at the moment. Perhaps we should finish this some other time when I'm not so distracted." The pharaoh stood from the throne, his blood red eyes not giving Isis any room to argue.
"As you wish, Sire." She bowed to the pharaoh as he walked past her.
Yugi stood in the pharaoh chambers, adding some last minute cleaning. The fire place was roaring warmly, causing shadows to play on the walls. His skin wasn't so pale anymore. He spent a lot of time outside in the garden, so now he had a nice tan. But his skin would never been as sexy as the pharaoh's skin.
I dream of fire.
Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire.
And in those flames.
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire.
'Hmm. I wonder where he could be.' The pharaoh thought, staring outside of a balcony in the gardens where his little slave usually was. He knew Yugi loved roses, but he didn't know why. Sure they're beautiful, but... they only resemble love and romance.
The pharaoh decided to go check his chambers, which was probably the only other place Yugi ever was. Thinking his slave might be asleep, he slowly and quietly opened the door and looked inside. Upon seeing the young boy putting roses in a vase, he blinked in surprise.
This desert rose.
Each of her veils a secret promise.
This desert flower.
No sweet perfume ever tortured me like this.
Suddenly, Atem felt... shy... and oddly... desirable. He stepped into the room and closed the door slowly, not wanting to disturb his slave's work. The pharaoh watched as Yugi walked over to the bed they slept in and made it, smoothing a hand along the cottton sheets and fluffing the many pillows.
Watching his little slave, Atem could feel lust building inside his core. Sure he'd felt lustful toward his little slave, but... it was never this strong. Yugi was beautiful, graceful and talented. He could clean, dance, sing even; but he was no sex slave. After hearing that Set had saved Yugi from his last master in Greece, the pharaoh vowed never to use his slave in that form of slavery.
"Oh! Pharaoh..."
The surprise in the sweet voice of Yugi snapped Atem out of his daze. He blinked and smiled at his slave.
"Hello Yugi."
"I-I... didn't know you were here."
"It's fine. Don't worry about it." Atem said and stepped forward more. "Did you get caught in the rain?"
Yugi smiled. "Yes. It's been a while since I've seen it. I've always loved the rain."
Atem tilted his head some.
And as she turns.
The way she moves in the logic of all of my dreams.
This fire burns.
I realize that nothing's as it seems.
The first time Atem had seen Yugi, he had been reminded of the dreams he'd had only a week before. It had rained a week before Yugi had arrived and Atem had dreamed of a small shadow coming into his life. Maybe it had been a vision of the future, but Isis never saw anything in her necklace about a boy coming to Egypt from Greece.
'I didn't even know they had slavery in Greece.' Atem had said to Set that night over dinner.
'I think... maybe he was kidnapped and kept there against his will. As they don't have slavery in Greece.' Set had replied.
"Rain always made me think of being washed clean of all our sins. It also reminds me of my mother." Yugi said softly.
Atem blinked. "Your mother?" Yugi was opening up to him again.
"Yes. She... loved roses and rain. Anytime it rained, she would sit out in the garden and watch the rain come down on our rose bush. In fact... my father once told me... that I was born on a rainy day. My mother said if she had a girl, she would name her 'Rain', but... instead she had me."
Atem sat on the edge of the bed and listened intently.
I dream of rain.
I dream of gardens in the desert sand.
I wake in pain.
I dream of love as time runs through my hand.
Atem looked down as Yugi told him how his mother had died. 'A illness that had been given to her by a murderer. Set was right. Yugi was kidnapped, his father killed and his mother was injected with a virus that was incurable.'
Yugi gasped softly as he was suddenly pulled into his master's lap and held close. He felt secure and warm in the arms of the pharaoh, and so he smiled and closed his eyes, laying his head on the strong shoulder infront of him. His small hands gripped the tunic on the pharaoh's chest.
"I'm so sorry, aibou." The pharaoh whispered. "You were so happy... and then those jerks took that happiness from you."
"I'm happy now, my pharaoh. You've treated me so kindly and never once raised a hand to me or your voice." The youth whispered back.
Pharaoh Atem smiled lightly, tightening his arms around the slim waist of his little slave. He let out a soft sigh, nuzzling his face into the soft skin of the little slave's neck. "I'm glade you're hear Yugi. You have no idea how calm and relaxed you make me in tough situations."
Yugi blushed softly and looked at the pharaoh daringly in the eyes. Atem stared back.
I dream of rain.
I lift my gaze to empty skies above.
I close my eyes, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of her love.
Slowly, Yugi leaned up and kissed the pharaoh. Atem's eyes widened slightly, his lips parting slightly upon the touch of petal soft lips upon his chapped ones. Immediately, Yugi pulled away, blushing and eyes fearful as if he thought he was going to be punished, but the pharaoh held him tight to his body.
"Yugi..."
"Y-yes, my lord?"
"You stole a kiss... from the pharaoh."
"I-I'm sorry!"
"You know... I'm going to want that kiss back."
Yugi blinked blankly. "O-oh..." He yelped as he was suddenly rolled over and pinned to the bed. "Ph-pharaoh?!"
"It's alright Yugi. I won't hurt you." Atem whispered lovingly. He lifted a hand and stroked the lightly tanned cheek of the little slave and smiled as said slave relaxed under him.
The amethyst depths slowly closed as the pharaoh leaned down, his heart beating rapdily. The same lightly tanned cheeks flushed a light pink as their lips brushed softly over each other.
I dream of rain.
I dream of gardens in the desert sand.
I wake in pain.
I dream of love as time runs through my hand.
After a moment, the kiss deepened. Their lips moved together, pushing and pressing against each other. Yugi's hands were by his head, a beautiful pink blush covering his cheeks as the spicey scent of the pharaoh consumed his senses. He jumped when he felt a tongue enter his mouth and rub against his and he couldn't help but moan softly, one of his hands twitching slightly.
The pharaoh leaned up, panting as the kiss broke. Yugi panted softly, opening his eyes to look up at his master.
"Yugi..." The pharaoh whispered huskily. "Say... say my name."
Yugi blushed deeper. "... Atem."
Said pharaoh shivered, his eyes closing. They kissed again, both kissing the other with passion and desire. Yugi's hands lifted from the bed, one going to the back of the pharaoh's neck and the other daringly slipping under Atem's tunic to his thigh. Said pharaoh jumped slightly and pulled away from the kiss, looking down at Yugi with wide, surprised eyes.
"I... I had no idea... you were so daring Yugi."
Said slave blushed. "Uh... well... um..."
The pharaoh chuckled. "Its kind of nice."
"Eep!" Yugi yelped, eyes wide as he felt his skirt being lowered down his hips.
Sweet desert rose.
Each of her veils a secret promise.
This desert flower.
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this.
"Mmn!"
Atem's eyes glanced at from between Yugi's spread thighs and to his face. He shivered and sat up, staring down at the little slave, his chest moving up and down with his panting and his face flushed pink. His little slave was so beautiful, naked and spread out before him... and all his. He would protect this youth with all his power.
"Pharaoh...?"
Atem smirked. "Yugi... did I not tell you to call me by my name?"
"Urk! Er... s-sorry."
"Don't worry about it, little one." Atem whispered, nuzzling said boy's stomach.
Yugi shivered, gently weaving his fingers through the soft hair of his pharaoh and master. He slowly closed his eyes, feeling a warm wet object sliding up along his stomach and to his chest, circling a nipple and then nipping it, causing him to let out a gasp. The tips of coarse fingers brushed up along his inner thigh, teasing and flirting.
"Atem..." The little slave moaned softly, arching slightly as the pharaoh teased his erection. A soft whimper followed the moan when said pharaoh stopped completly.
"Roll over, little one."
Yugi blinked blankly before following his pharaoh's orders and rolling over onto his stomach. Soon he felt the pharaoh leaning over him, one hand stroking his side and back and the other holding up Atem's body by his head. The little slave lifted his hand and began caressing and stroking his master's arm and hand dazedly. He closed his eyes as kisses were peppered along his back.
"Ah!" The little slave threw his head back as a tongue slid down the small of his back. He gripped the sheets, trembling massively as that warm, wet organ slide along his cleft. "Atem..."
The pharaoh sat up, smirking and licking his lips. "And now... my sweet little one..." He leaned down, licking across his neck. "I will make you mine." He whispered lovingly.
Sweet desert rose.
This memory of Eden haunts us all.
This desert flower, this rare perfume.
Is the sweet intoxiacation of the fall.
"A-ah!" Yugi arched as the pharaoh pushed into him, pulling him up to his hands and knees and holding his stomach. Behind him, he could feel the pharaoh trying to restrain himself from just pounding into him ruthlessly.
Slowly, the young king pulled out and pushed back in. Underneath his hand, the little slave's muscle clenched and relaxed repeatedly before slowly relaxing as the muscles around the large erection began to loosen up. As the young king began to thrust faster, Yugi began rocking with him. As they both began to moan and pant, the king sat back on his bum, pulling his slave into his lap. Yugi gasped, a hand going to the back of his master's head as he used his knees to move himself on top of him.
"Oh! Atem!" The little slave gasped, spreading his legs further apart as the pharaoh's hand stroked his neglected member.
They moved together in sync. One thrusting down and the other thrusting up. The pharaoh's free hand turned Yugi's head, stilling their movements for a moment as they kissed deeply, lovingly. Slowly, Atem pulled from the kiss and gently pushed Yugi back onto his hands and knees. He then pulled out, frowning when Yugi cried out softly.
"Atem?" Yugi sat up and looked over his shoulder at the pharaoh. "D-did I...?"
"Shh." Atem whispered, pushing Yugi onto his back. "I want to see you when you come."
The little slave blushed and welcomed his pharaoh back between his legs. Both of them moaned blissfully as Atem pushed back into him. He started right where he left off, kissing along Yugi's neck and holding his hips. Yugi's hands slid through the young king's hair and along his back.
"Ahhh!" Yugi arched suddenly, screaming out in bliss.
Atem smirked against his shoulder, thrusting against his little one's special spot again.
"Hnn!" The little slave panted heavily, rocking against the king impulsively. "Atem! Atem! I-I -"
"Shh. It's alright. I'm almost... there too." The young pharaoh panted, kissing his slave passionately.
Yugi clung to his pharaoh's shoulders as he threw his head back, screaming the king's name as he released.
"Yugi!" The pharaoh arched, thrusting deeply into Yugi as he released.
Just as they were about to relax, the two guards who guarded the pharaoh's chamber door rushed in, swords drawn. They stopped immediately, and cupped their noses as they bled from the intimate site. Yugi and Atem looked at each other and snickered.
