Memoirs of a slave ch.11

Serenity POV

I had no idea what he went to go do I just know he ran out like a bat out of hell and left Rei and myself in his proverbial dust. We kind of gave him a look of confusion then looked to one another before going back inside to notify everyone of what he asked. They were confused as we were but complied none the less. That night I had just hoped he'd be home before the morning's sun rose for the day.

Alas he wasn't. I woke up to an empty bed the next morning and sighed. Getting dressed in a simple dress I left out had breakfast before falling into my previous maid duties until one pm rolled around. I didn't know what he had planned but I felt the odd need to bath before he came home. I smiled. I have a home again. A real home. Granted it was much bigger than the last but size matters not to me. It's not the size that makes a home but the people in it.

Endymion, the girls, they were my family now. This was our home now and we would defend it if necessary. I just hoped Endymion didn't go seek his father by himself, I didn't trust the man at all. Diamond reminded me of a loose cannon that dealt with consequences later on and if he associated with the elder Chiba it had me worried. I couldn't categorize Endymion like that as he was estranged from his father. Endymion was clearly his mother's son. He cared about people, and people like me didn't get that to often.

Getting out I put my hair up in odangoes before braiding them half way and letting the rest of my hair flow freely. I frowned to myself. Why was I getting extra primped right now? I feel as if I'm getting ready to begin a courting date of sorts. I couldn't get why but I knew I had to. At two pm on the dot everyone was in the estate. That was when Endymion came back. Once the carriage stopped he got out with two big boxes in his hands.

I frowned in confusion as he walked to me. He handed it to me along with another smaller box on top of it, "Get dressed in that and meet me in the gardens." I was still confused as I looked at the beautifully decorated box. I almost didn't want to open it, "What is this?" the box itself was sealed closed. I'd have to break it open to reveal its contents, "Just get dressed and be ready Serenity." He said evasively.

He smiled and kissing the top of my head he left off for the back as one of the butlers escorts me to our shared room. "I'm confused. What's this all about?" I asked the man. He looked just as befuddled as he shrugged then looked in Endymion's direction, "I can't tell you what even I'm not aware of miss Serenity. I just do as ordered." I accepted that and once escorted inside the estate house I leave for our bedroom.

I put the boxes on the now made bed. Delicately I open the smaller one first I saw that it was a beautiful pair of white shoes. Small heels. Just the right size to. Then I opened the big box and found a glorious wedding dress inside. I gasped in shock at it before looking to the door. As if he was right there waiting for my reaction. I almost wish he was there for it. I near wept at seeing something so beautiful.

The dress was a fine silky material. It had a long train and form fitting bodice. The shoulders were of a material I couldn't describe made into flowers that formed a strap over my shoulder and at the sides. A little peekaboo of skin in between while the second straps had a see through gauze that went down my arm cutting off at the elbow and letting the rest of the material hang loosely in a divine manner down the rest of my arm. There was a small gathering in the back that ended in the form of a bow. I fell in love.

I heard my door opening to find Rei and Makoto there. Minako standing behind her with Ami following suit, "We heard the news. Congratulations!" Minako was thrilled, "I'm honestly shocked." I tell them, "Obviously. Apparently Endymion decided to get married to you today of all days." Rei said. "He's invited only close friends and family to the event." Ami chimed in, "He wanted it to be a close gathering so only them." Makoto stated. "So let's get you dressed we have a wedding to get to." Minako had the final say as they got to work on me.

Endymion POV

I put the whole estate, the portion that is that wasn't in the room with Serenity helping her get ready, to work on the event. I say I never saw my staff so joyous than to do such a thing. Not even when I married Ann. Then again she did order and bustle people around like they were there to serve only her. Large tables were set up to serve all the guests. Even one for the servants that worked hard to make the event happen.

Party decorations were put up with flowers to emphasis the wonderful moment that was about to happen. I don't even remember being even a bit close to happy when I married Ann. I tried. I tried to focus on everything but who I was getting married to. Now all I can think of is my sweet loving Serenity and the wonderful night well be having together. I intended to start our new family tonight no matter what.

That's why by three pm the final touches were being made. I was excited to see the look on my loves face when she came out and saw what had been done to transform the garden area. I wanted it to be the marker for everything that started. This is where I first realized my feelings for her, where I knew something magical would happen between us. I had a butler call out for Serenity so she could come down here. Normally this would be done completely differently as tradition would dictate but we are hardly a traditional couple.

Those closest to me arrived already. Scolded me for having a wedding without giving them for warning to go get gifts. I simply told them that their presence was enough of a gift. At nearly four on the dot I watched Serenity come down with her four friends and my goddess was she a sight. She looked like an ethereal being. Long blonde locks, form fitting white dress and a several foot long train going down the back. She carried with her flowers from the vase on the first floor.

I laughed at that. I suddenly felt embarrassed that I was in this little tuxedo and here she was a thing of beauty walking towards me. Looking at me with love and happiness. Getting a priest wasn't that hard when there's a chapel at the hospital where I work at. He was more than happy to come out here and wed us. Once she arrived had a hard time controlling myself. All I wanted to do was unwrap her and bed my wife to be.

The priest saw this and smiled but not before motioning to stay put until he was done. I had to bow my head down for a moment on that one. "Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to witness the joining of Endymion Chiba and Serenity Tsukino in holy matrimony." I looked over to her blushing face as he kept reading his lines. She was so red, like a tomato that I had to say something to her.

"You're stunning." I whispered to her. She smiles, "I thought you wanted a bigger wedding?" she asked in a timid voice, "What I want is you." I replied. She turns another shade of tomato red before the priest asks for doubt in the audience. I could see a few of her friends looking around to ensure no one would say anything. It actually looked a bit comical as each of them were wordlessly telling people NOT to say anything. No one responded.

I see her friends reserve themselves once more, acting completely calm and cool. I had to smile, she had already gained so many friends and given me a new family. "Now if there is nothing else left to be said - " Serenity stops him. Panic begins to set in. Was springing this on her was too much? Is she not ready for this now? I felt cold dreed seeping up my spin like a cancer. Please say something Serenity!

I see her looking up and see nothing but love and trust in her eyes. I'm confused now. "May I speak?" she asked. The priest gestured for her to go on ahead. She looked so confident in her next words I was left breathless and in near tears, "Endymion, I am so grateful for everything that has happened despite what's happened along the way, it has brought me to you in the end." I felt the tears begin.

I yearned to touch her face, to hold her closer to me, but I felt she had more to say. "Before I met you I was nothing more than a simple girl. I was a woman facing nothing but emptiness in a small desolate village. You transformed me into a woman who is now facing a future with the most wonderful man on earth. The day I met you was oddly enough the best day of my life. If I had to do it all over again I would. As long as it meant that it would bring me closer to you." I couldn't help it, I felt the tears coming down.

"Serenity, you are my light. Everything about you makes me want to be a better man. I don't want to face a future without you in my life. The day I met you was the day my life got turned upside down, and I wouldn't change a minute of it. I feel like we'll be seeing each other again for several more lifetimes. I refuse to miss a moment of that." She started to tear up to. "We and our children when we have them will never want for anything but one another. I love you Serenity." I told her.

Serenity POV

The wedding went off without a hitch. We kissed as blissfully as anything and I couldn't have been happier. Yes I wish my mother was here to see it but I know she would have been happy for me. The rest of the evening went on by fairly quickly. Endymion I could tell couldn't wait for tonight as his hands seemed to always be showing up on me. I giggled at the notion but felt the same way.

Around nine pm Endymion started to end the party but there were many party goers that were a bit to sloshed to leave so he gave them room for the night in the other section of our home. Our home…I still smiled at that thought. I left for our room while he was still talking with old friends, nothing like the likes of Diamond. He gave me a wicked glint before accepting my leave from his side.

Once inside our room I took my heels off and undid the back corset portion of the dress to let it come off without a hitch. It took the girls five minutes to string it up and took me just as long if not longer to loosen it up. I gently stepped out of it to reveal the under corset I had on. It barely covered my breasts, leaving all but the areola exposed on top. They honestly felt ready to pop out but in the confines of our room I felt safe to not cover up right away.

I walked over to the bathing area to fill up the tub once more to enjoy a long hot bath. Maybe Endymion would find me in here and… "Dirty girl." I muttered to myself. Not that I couldn't think that way but I was still a bit shy to do so. I felt a gently breeze enter the room and snapped my head towards the bedroom door. However it wasn't whom I had expected to find. My blood ran cold at the sight of Diamond.

He closed the door quietly and locked it securely. I was stunned and angered that on this day Diamond would choose to do something so foul as to come in here at the most inopportune time for me. "What in heavens name is wrong with you?" I demanded. I was also feeling a bit disgruntled that I had to deal with him again. didn't he get his lesson the first time. I grasped the nearest clothing object, the bathrobe, to cover my nearly nude body from his penetrating gaze upon me.

"Chiba promised me once he had you for himself he'd give you to me for a night. Sort of like a payment for my services to bring you back to his place. It may not have been the elder Chiba but a Chiba has had you, now it's my turn." I grabbed a perfume bottle nearby and threw it at his head. He dodged it but the glass container smashed into thousands of little shards by the door, its contents leaking out and making the wood smell flowery.

"You know someone heard that! Someone will be back here!" I snapped. Grabbing another object for defense. "How did you get in?" I demanded. I was already backed up towards the window. I just needed to get into the bathroom before he got there so I could lock it. "Not to hard when the staff prepping for a wedding. Something I wasn't invited to." he acted offended. "Yeah well you're the one that hurt your friendship with him, not me."

My words didn't have the desired effect, "The fact that he chose a whore over his long-time friend speaks a lot about him. I just happen to try and sneak back in during this lovely celebration. I would have loved to object but those friends of yours looked ready to kill if any stepped out of line." He was right on that one. "As for your tantrum, the party is still going on enough to cover these sounds. Trust me on this though…" he looked at me like a piece of meat he wanted to eat.

"I will get even with that delectable bottom of yours…and you will be screaming my name. pain or pleasure would be your choice." He grinned at his words. Panic settled in my gut, "I will not let you lay a finger on me." I didn't want to go through this again. the shed was one thing but this, "Seriously enough is enough. This isn't going to happen. Endymion will be back soon enough." I try.

I took off for the door and got nearly all the way inside before he slammed his body into it forcing me back and nearly into the water. I grunted from the force of the impact. My side colliding with the porcelain tub. I cried out in pain before trying to crawl away. Diamond grabbed for my feet. I kicked out but he caught them and pulled me back with ease. My lungs let out a shriek that I hope someone heard.

The water still ran within the tub. Covering any sounds I knew that were low enough. I had to make them loud to be heard. Diamond grabbed at my corset and tried to rip it from me. I looked around for anything to use against him. I wasn't physically stronger than him nor was I trained in anything for defense. What I did know was that anything sharp could be used as a weapon. I looked around while trying to delay him in getting access to my person.

I saw a wooden brush nearby. I didn't know how or why I just reached for it. To far and up high, so I banged on the countertops drawer till the vibrations knocked it down. I slamming the brush end into the tub. Diamond heard it and went to restrict me. I used his own momentum to slam the brush end off. Left with a jagged handle I scratched his wrist with it. He cried out in pain, "You bitch!" he yelped. He was off for five seconds. Fir five seconds I had an opening to stab him in the neck.

It was clear as day. All I had to do was lunge as he did me and he'd be dead. Gone from the world. Tears came to my eyes. I didn't want to take a human life. Not if that life was save-able, even if that life tried to take me out or harm me. "Diamond!" I snapped. He looked down to me, "You leave now and I won't tell Endymion. You leave now and I won't act against you. Please don't make me hurt you."

He began to laugh but my next words had him thinking on it, "If I have to I will end you." He just laughed harder. "My dear lovely Serenity…" he caressed the side of my face. "Once I have you, you will be the end. Not me." I fought against him and went to stab. Out of reflex if anything. However nothing was there. I looked up to find Endymion standing in there with Diamond pinned to the nearby wall.

"You dare harm my wife?" he demanded. "Your father bought her like a piece of meat at the auction, she's his property." Diamond spat. Endymion inched the blade in his hand closer to his jugular. "I bought her from him, therefore if I had chosen to call her as such she would be my property. But she's not, she's my wife! You will reap the consequences of tonight's events." He slammed the blunt end into Diamond's head, effectively knocking him out.

Diamond fell in a heap to the floor. Endymion looked torn between beating on him out of rage or soothing me. he looked over and saw my disheveled state. Settling down he made his decision, "I'll call for the constable." He looked to me and pulled me up into his waiting arms. Holding me close as I held onto him securely. "Not the wedding night I planned for us." I told him. He merely petted my hair.

That night Diamond was taken into the jail on a count of attempted rape of a noble wife by marriage. We were finally able to settle in for the evening, Endymion was pacing back and forth like a panther on the prowl. As bad as I felt about tonight's ending events it still didn't deter how I felt. "Endymion." I called to him. He was by the window, in his pants and his white wedding shirt. The top few buttons undone. I was in a simple one piece night gown. He looked to me as I got out of the bed.

With nothing on underneath I unbuttoned the back and slipped the gown off of my shoulders. It fell to the floor in a heap. His eyes suddenly found one and only focus…me. I walked up to him, "Make love to me. Don't let him take this night away from us." He bit his lip then finally accepted and agreed. Kissing me softly I unbutton the rest of his shirt. It fell to the floor with ease as he gently eased me back to the bed.

I opened my legs wide for him, "They are only open for you." I tell him, "I know. They will only ever be open for me." his words bordering on possessive in their form. Or perhaps they were…I merely nodded, "They were only ever open for you." He smiled, a Cheshire grin as he undid his pants and let them drop, undergarments to. He eased himself partially over me before ducking his head between my legs.

His tongue began to do wicked things to my nether lips. It left me panting and begging for more of what he had to offer. When he sucked my lower lips into his mouth I gasped and clenching my legs around his head. "Oh kami!" I squeaked out. Biting my lip to avoid being to loud. He chuckled before going in for the kill. He licked at my core delicately before I whimpered in need, then he gently bite at the folds and I felt like screaming.

So I turned my head into the comforter before reaching up to grab onto a pillow. Grabbing the pillow I muffle my cries of pleasure. "Serenity you taste amazing. I could eat you out all day long and never tire of it." I moaned at his words as he sucked my lower lips once more as more of my honey flowed out and into his mouth. I gripped his head with my thighs only to have them pulled to back.

Endymion spread me wide like an eagle as he climbed up my body. With his body poised and ready he slipped himself within me. I gasped for breath. His thrusts turning a page and giving in to deeper more powerful hits that took my breath away. I clenched my legs around his hips as he grunted in need. "I love you my sweet Serenity." At those words he ground his length into my core and sent me headlong into an orgasm. My toes curled, my legs tightened and my muscles pulled from him a cry of pleasure as well.

I couldn't believe this. It was beautiful. He kept going as if one orgasm for me wasn't enough, "Oh Endymion…" I nearly wailed. His hits coming in faster and harder. I felt myself climbing up that cliff again. It was like we were a perfect fit together. Two halves of the same whole and we had the rest of our lives together. When I felt him growing larger I clenched harder. He growled and sunk his mouth into my neck.

Feeling him dig in with his teeth I cried out but held him in place. The mark he left behind I knew would be covered up by dresses but I cared not. I wanted his mark on me. I wanted the world to know I was his and he was mine. So when his teeth released me and I felt my orgasm coming on I sunk mine into his. He grunted but held on. I felt nothing but a white hot pleasure and was unable to move a muscle.

"My goddess Serenity you are a stunning vision." He told me, caressing my face when I came back down. He had still yet to come. I clenched around him to show that I was ready again. Only this time I turned the tables on him and flip us around to straddle him. I felt empowered yet embarrassed. His hands clutched the sides of my hips, "Ride me my love." he encouraged. I began to do as he asked and felt myself galloping towards that goal with him now. He began to thrust up within me, his length reaching deeper.

I moaned in need as I felt the next one for the night come upon me. "I want to fill you up with my seed, make you come harder than you have before." I looked down at him at his words. The fierce look of love and possessiveness rendered me helpless to do anything but follow his lead. I rode him harder. Feeling him expand within me. His hands moving me over him faster, pulling me onto his length with a speed that I wasn't used to.

He began to grind my hips into his thrusts. Once more he was in control and I didn't care. I just wanted to feel this magnificent culmination. I wanted us both to remember this moment for the rest of our lives. Then as if he felt my orgasm coming on his own hips began to lose control. I felt the rhythm stutter as his length widened further within me. It was the twist of his fingers on my spongy clit that sent me over the moon. He slammed himself deeper than before, reaching a spot that only he had ever touched.

His head slammed back, hitting the comforter as his roar of ecstasy equated my cry of pleasure as we came together, shaking and sweating as I fell on top of him. He held me on top of him as we calmed down from the pleasurable heights we'd been on. "I've never felt better in my whole life as I do right now." He told me. "Me neither." I answered. I curled up into him. I looked over to the window and saw the moon. Smiling I thought of everything that had happened. Without asking about it I gained more than I could have ever dreamed of.

In my previous position you couldn't ask for much. You wouldn't gain much. In my current position I've gained so much. I could have been nothing more than a mistress to Endymion, he could have stayed faithful to the upper class society on how they think and act. But he didn't, he stayed true to his heart. For that I will never love another. I will never accept another into my keep…even in death I am his.

As I make love to him I think on my life. To face a world of harsh grit and near death and to go from that to his kind loving arms…to grasp that a young woman with more courage and stubbornness than she felt she had could gain this life. I found that my wishes while weren't answered in the way I thought they would be gave me a new life amidst the tragedy. New friends. A new family. My newfound happiness. I will live this life of love and warmth to the fullest. I will make my mother happy in the afterlife.

After all these are not the memoirs of a noblewoman, nor of a grand Queen…these memoirs are my own. And when our children read these they will know of sacrifice and hardship from us both. They will know that life can be cruel but can also be kind and loving. They will be loved and treasured and they will raise their children the same way as we will raise them. And when Endymion and I are ready to leave this earth we will find one another again…in a new lifetime…always…and forever…

The end…
