Sorry for the late upload. I wanted to fully clean my car on a warm day and today just happened to be that day before the cold blew in the rest of this week.
If nobody had heard, I got a job three weeks ago. I am also off Tuesday tomorrow so I will be able to try writing another chapter.
Enjoy :)
Chapter 9: Change
That same night, while everyone was asleep, Atem, even though he said he was fine with having Yugi's child, he was still chained by the wrists as he slept, though his dreams were messing with him worse than a year ago.
/Dream/
Back in the past, where the Royals of Egypt wore gold and silver, while the slaves wore iron chains around each limb and tattered cloths made from rags.
In this case, it looked as if the slave's Master had been turned into a slave, shackled by the wrists and kneeling on the bed, arms high above his head, gag tied at his mouth. His stomach looked about two months pregnant.
At the wall to the left from entering the room at the door, sat a good six people, three women and three men. Chains at their necks while cuffs attached at their wrists.
The six were spaced out a few feet, needing room to sleep and other things.
At the moment Yugi was fucking one of the woman, finishing up with her before moving on to the one on the bed.
The man was angry, just before the cloth was removed from his mouth, coughing.
Crawling behind the man, lining himself up.
Panting "I swear when I get free, you will be the first one to go. I'll kill you with everything that I've got in me, you got that!" The man spat.
Chuckling "Sure, whatever you say, though I doubt that you will be able to get free in your condition. So say whatever you want while you can, cause in the next seven months you won't be doing anything but taking care of this child. You won't be thinking of anything but that." Yugi clarified, beginning to push into the man.
For many hours the room echoed loud cries, moans and pants for breath.
/Dream End/
Shooting up in bed, gasping and panting for breath. Cold sweat ran down his face as his shirt collar was drenched in sweat.
Calming down he placed a hand to his forehead, wiping the sweat from his face that was left there.
Minutes passed before Atem fully calmed down, laying back down and placed a hand to his stomach, blinking from time to time.
Taking in a large breath, closing his eyes 'Yugi is trying to tell me something. I am not the descendant of that Pharaoh so me having a dream of him during that time is impossible. So the only other possibility is Yugi sending his memory to me and nothing else.' Atem thought. Glancing to his side he saw the time, staying up for another hour encase Yugi decided to show him another memory of the past before going back to sleep, not knowing what would come of him in the next few weeks.
The next morning Atem woke, startled by his cousin and friends since they had been left in the room while Yugi and their Masters went out in search of something. The thing that Yugi was searching for was the book that the mortals stole from Hell in the past.
Since the seven were left alone they decided to just talk, nothing about the demons that were ruling over them. Just talk of the positive things if there were any, along with playing a few games here and there.
At noon Yugi and the others returned for lunch.
Joey, Malik, Ryo, Ishizu, Odion and Duke went to their rooms for lunch instead of the lounge today, most likely going to do something with their slaves afterward as they haven't done anything with them in a while. In fact they haven't done anything since they began looking for Yugi's book a few weeks ago, though unlike the last few mornings, Seto, Marik, Bakura, Mana, Mahad, and Tristan were left in their rooms to clean as well as anything else that their Masters ordered them to do while they were gone.
Once gone from the room, Yugi called for his slaves lunch to be brought to the room.
Letting out a loud sigh as he sat down in his chair, head resting in the palm of his hands since they have had no luck.
The book was made by God and placed in Hell so it wouldn't have been burned nor destroyed by the mortals. Yugi knew that they must have hidden it someplace on Earth or inside the Palace.
'Since I've been separated from it for quite some time I can't sense it anywhere around here. My touch has weakened quite a bit since that day.' He thought staying still, though Atem could feel that Yugi was troubled by something, taking a seat across from Yugi, asking "Is everything alright?"
Shocked by those words Yugi looked up, taking his head off his hands.
"You look troubled."
"You wouldn't understand." Yugi scoffed, jerking his head towards the fireplace.
Staring blankly over at Yugi, annoyed with his behavior already since two months ago "Then what were you saying about last night and wanting more questions answered. How are you going to do that if you don't ask them. Who knows, maybe whatever you are having trouble finding, I may know where it is." Atem answered.
Blinking in confusion "Is my face that obvious to tell what is wrong."
"Pretty much." Atem responded "I look like that when I can't find something I'm looking for. Everyone looks some way when they are troubled."
Leaning back nodding "All right then. I suppose you wouldn't know where that ancestor of yours hide my book, now would you?"
Blinking "I've never seen it with my own eyes, but I'm sure that the council members know something more on that subject."
"Of course, why hadn't I thought of them." Yugi mumbled, Atem raising a brow at that remark "Those ten are people who can keep a secret and lie through their teeth better than any person alive. The day we got out they lied that you seven were not the descendants in order to protect you, but I saw through them almost instantly, cause the language from that book is hard to read than most languages on Earth. In any case, I will look into these ten some other day. Right now I want to ask you some very important questions that is concerned with the other night." Yugi said.
Atem understood, getting comfortable in the chair he was sitting in until lunch arrived.
"Since we are alone now without any distractions interrupting every ten seconds, tell me this regarding yesterday. Were you or were you not telling me the truth, and this is about everything that I asked." Yugi asked, leg resting over the other.
Instantly answering without hesitating "All of it is true. I may have sounded odd to the others last night, but I was raised never to lie. I can with the other six, but never to anyone outside the group. This also means I can't lie to a demon."
"And yet I thought you were going to turn out like that guy in your dreams. I know you figured out that I placed that inside your head."
"Why did you though. Were you hoping that I would become like him, wanting you dead. I do hate you to an extent but that is mostly from your attitude towards me, yet I don't want you to die once again, otherwise you would be even more of an asshole towards humans that nobody would be able to stop you."
Nodding "True, I would kill every mortal on Earth just so Demon's would be able to live peacefully before our deaths."
In silence for a few minutes "Yugi, may I ask you of your past."
Giving Atem a curious eye, leaning against his fist.
"I know that it is sudden and I have a sinking feeling that you don't want anyone to know of it or speak it, but you have asked of my life and any questions that you could think of for over the last year and two months. I have to know something about you other than a doctor of some sort."
Yugi was still silent, gazing at Atem in curiosity. Taking a breath in "I don't understand you. You say you hate me, yet you want to know more, in which I don't want to tell." Sighing "Tell you what, if and when this child inside you is born and stays alive for a couple months is when I will tell you some stuff about myself, but right now I can't. I need time to sort out my differences with my past. I hate my past from how it had to end."
A knock at the door stopped Yugi from talking, snapping his fingers together, causing the doors to open. A woman with a tray of food walked over, placing the tray down on the table before the two, bowing and then left. Snapping his fingers again the doors locked. Yugi stood up and went for his room while Atem began eating, making sure that Yugi didn't get mad at him for not eating, yet slow enough in order to not get sick from the food.
Finishing thirty minutes later, Yugi walked back out of his room and placed a few books back onto the bookshelf, not turning around "Do you want to leave the room?"
Atem widened his eyes "Can I. I haven't left since yesterday night."
Chuckling lightly "What I meant was go outside, not stay indoors. Now, what would you want to do."
Shocked "Even after what you said last year. You are asking me what I want to do. Of course I want to go outside. I have wanted to go back out since two months ago." Atem responded, leaning forwards.
Understanding "Alright, let's go out."
Standing up, questioning "Why are you being so nice to me all of a sudden?"
Reaching the door "I told you awhile back that I can be nice at times. Anyways, I have been through a person's pregnancy twice and I know when people become needy in things. It is best that you get what you want instead of being stressed out over it. In my mind it is a key thing to do in order for that baby in you to be healthy. That is the only thing that I will be looking out for as well as you eating. Aside from that, are you coming or not. I won't be coming back until later so if you don't come now you'll be stuck in this room by yourself, with nothing to do."
Defeated Atem followed Yugi out of the room where they went for the garden to walk around, sit and relax until late at night. They also talked to each other, even though they didn't say much, just enjoy the sun, heat and breeze that was offered at that time.
They then went to go eat dinner with a few of the others in the lounge who showed up, talking amongst themselves till they went back to their rooms for the night.
Walking back to their room, Atem followed close behind. When they made it to the room, Atem went for the shower since he hadn't taken one in a couple days.
Yugi, however, went into his room, changed and got ready for bed, though he planned on having someone else sleep with him from tonight onwards. Waiting some minutes until the shower water turned off and then some minutes till Atem dried off and changed into night clothes, he went out and stood by the bed, arms crossed over his chest while he looked out the window.
Half a minute later Atem opened the door, towel hanging from his head as he was still drying it.
Upon glancing over to the bed, spotting Yugi standing there, he blushed lightly, though hid it by the towel, not wanting Yugi to see it and changed the expression on his face without realizing it on his own. Once dried Atem dropped the towel into the basket of dirty clothes, going for his bed, though before he could get close, Yugi went for him, pulling his arm in making him follow.
Atem blinked in confusion as he was pulled towards Yugi's room, yet blushed deeper even more from before. Atem could not believe that after two months, that this was happening again.
Leading Atem into his room, lights in the other room shutting off while the door closed behind them. Yugi motioned Atem to the bed as he went for the other side.
Silently sighing, relieved that Yugi had not been thinking of doing that anytime tonight, slowly making his way onto the bed.
Shutting the lamp off Yugi rolled over onto his side "From tonight onward you will be sleeping in this bed and room."
Atem choked "But why, and don't say because you want to be nice to me."
Smirking "In truth, you are only being watched encase something goes wrong. In other words." Pulling Atem closer to himself "You might have urges that need to be taken care of some other time."
Atem blushed once more, making Yugi smirk even more "Don't try to hide it. I saw you blushing when you came out of the bathroom, and don't deny that you thought that I was going to take you tonight in my bed." Chuckling "Though I feel in the next few weeks or months that we might need to start doing that again once your sickness goes away. We don't want you getting sick in the middle of our actions in the middle of the day now do we." Yugi stated, earning a shiver from Atem. "Don't worry, this time I will go easy on you. I don't need you being stressed out over being taken like that time a year ago. Besides, we haven't done anything in a couple months so you've gone tight again. I'll treat you nice."
Rolling his eyes "I feel a lot better. Hopefully you don't make me bleed like that time, and that includes having other demons having me." Atem mumbled.
"I'll try not to. That would be the last thing that I want to happen to you, in a different sense than what you might be thinking. Also, I have already warned every demon not to touch you. You know, cause stress and all. Anyways, you should sleep. You will need it more than I will."
Atem nodded, rolling over and away from Yugi, though his arm was still around his waist.
Waiting until Atem was asleep, Yugi placed his other hand to his stomach, rubbing light circles around the small bump that had formed in that spot. A small content smile spread across his lips, slowly falling asleep minutes later, not realizing how tired he really was until he had actually laid down and closed his eyes, though he was not expecting to be woken up by Atem the next morning at seven.
And there you all have it. At this point everything will turn a one-eighty since the first chapter.
