A/N: I'm sorry for the wait. I've had a little writer's block. I was looking for some Yami/Seto doujinshi and I haven't come up with any. It was supposed to help clear my writer's block. But a can of orange soda actually works just as well. Go figure…

General Jounouchi paced angrily in his chambers. There were no words that could describe the mood he was in. His brown eyes flared with fury as he knocked a gold chalice over and onto the floor.

" Damn Pharaoh and his higher powers! Damn him!"

He had been on his way to go see a certain High Priest earlier on that night; under the guise that he wanted to speak to him about the conditions of the dragons that were being consecrated in the morning. But when he went to the chambers of said priest, he was only to discover that he had been called away to the bedchambers of the Pharaoh.

The mere thought of what the Pharaoh might be doing to him sent the general into a rage. He started to throw more things and curse more and more gods the more he thought about it.

It was no secret that the High Priest was gorgeous. Everyone knew that. It was also no secret that if he got involved with the Pharaoh that he would be killed. It WAS a secret however, that the Pharaoh had A LOT of interest in the High Priest. Jounouchi would blow this secret wide open if it weren't for one small problem…

He was interested in the High Priest too.

And would be awfully hard to screw the High Priest if he was dead. He was highly attracted to Seth and he did not miss the heated looks that the Pharaoh gave him. He knew very well why Yami had yet to pick a female to marry. It was the same reason he didn't make use of the concubines that lived to sleep with him.

And that was why he sent a guard to lie and remove Seth from Yami's bedchambers. He didn't want those two to be anymore chummy than they absolutely had too. It was bad enough he had to watch Yami drool over him while Seth danced according to his rituals; he certainly didn't want them in the same room with a bed.

Besides, he liked watching the High Priest dance according to ritual rules too. He especially liked the ritual to call upon water monsters. The way Seth had to be dripping with water. And the way he had to roll his body and swing his hips while he chanted spells and words in many languages. And how the smokes and fire seemed to develop hands of their own and grope at High Priest.

Yea…A large, hentai grin appeared on his face at the memories, Gotta love those water summoning spells…

**********************

Seth made his way to the dragon barns; trying to steady his breathing from his little 'encounter' with the Pharaoh. Yami had not been exactly willing to let him go. He didn't want their little game to end so quickly.

Though Seth was glad for the interruption. He was at a disadvantage at the moment in this little game. Yami was winning and he almost had him had it not been for the guard. He was going to have to watch out for him. The Pharaoh was going to be out to get him.

And what was he saying about Jounouchi? He was after him too? That was absurd. Everyone knew the General and the High Priest didn't get along. General Jounouchi couldn't stand to be in the same space as him; how could he want to sleep with him?

He walked into the dragon barn and looked around. All the dragons raised their heads and acknowledged him with roars and growls. He was one of the few humans that all dragons respected. But he saw no dragon in distress.

" What is the meaning of this? None of these dragons are in danger? That guard lied."

" But he served his purpose."

Seth turned in surprise; resisting the urge to cry out. There in the doorway, was General Jounouchi; with an extremely smug expression on his face. He had his arms crossed and one foot was on the doorway. And those brown eyes were trained on him and him only.

" Jounouchi? What game are you playing?"

" No games here Seth," He sauntered over to him," I am just showing my concern for you."

" Concern?" He took a step back.

" Yes. I came to discuss a battle strategy with you. When I came to your chambers you were gone. Naturally, I assumed you were with the Pharaoh. It is not safe for you to be with him anymore."

Seth arched a brow in confusion. " Why is that?"

Jounouchi continued to advance. Seth had backed into an empty stable by now. And with every step Jou took forward, he took one back. Until he tripped on a dragon scale brush and fell down in a pile of hay.

********************

Jou looked down at the form in front of him. Seth's hair was disheveled. His blue eyes were clouded with confusion. His cheeks were flushed from the fall and the heat of the stuffy stable. His garment had torn when he fell. It ripped straight up the side and stopped at his hip; exposing quite a bit of ivory skin for all to see. Oh the dreams Jou had of those legs wrapped tightly around his waist while he thrust wildly into-

" Answer me General!"

Jou was pulled from his daydream when Seth yelled at him. It was such a nice daydream too. One of his favorites. Oh well. The delicious brunette on the ground in front of him was much more interesting than the many, many, many, many, many fantasies he had of him.

" You said it isn't safe for me to be around the Pharaoh anymore. Why is that?" Seth tried to stand up, but Jounouchi wouldn't have it. He pushed him back down and sat next to him.

" Answer me this, has he come on to you?"

Seth looked taken aback by this. He didn't know what to say. If he said yes, he'd be killed. If he said no, Jou would probably tell the council about it anyway just to have him killed. And if they found out that he was lying, he'd be killed.

Talk about damned if you do and damned if you don't.

" You might as well answer, Priest." Jou was totally calm about the situation. Of course, his life wasn't on the line here either.

" I don't have to answer that."

Jou smiled and got a little closer to him." Fine. Don't tell me. But if he has told you anything. It's all lies. Lies, lies, lies, lies."

" Lies? What are you talking about?"

Jou smiled even bigger and leaned over to whisper in Seth's ear." The Pharaoh only wishes to screw you and leave you screwed. He'd only get as much pleasure from you as he wanted, then just hand you over to the council for execution."

" Why should I believe anything you say? He says you're a threat to me too." Seth narrowed his eyes at him.

" Of course he would," Jou snorted," He doesn't want you to know. You're not in any danger with me. I can keep you safe."

As Jou spoke, his arms had snaked their way around his slim waist. He had jerked him closer in a domineering manner. He was holding him possessively, but he was also being gentle; as if Seth were so fragile.

Seth was trying to figure out what Jou was doing. This was a complete personality change in the General. Normally, he couldn't stand to be in the same room with him. Now he was holding onto him so he couldn't get away and as if to emphasis his point of keeping him safe.

" I can protect you Seth. I can keep you out of harm's way. I can pleasure you more than any Pharaoh could and you wouldn't be in danger," Jou ran his tongue along the rim of his ear to make his point. Then as he was pulling away, he bit his earlobe; causing the Priest to jump.

" J-Jou, maybe you should leave."

" Leave?" He laughed at this," You don't want me to leave. You want me to stay. Hell, you want me period."

" I do n-" Seth began to protest at his accusation. But it seemed that he was just baiting him. Because as soon as he opened his mouth, Jou captured his bottom lip in his teeth before kissing him passionately.

Seth tried to push him off, but he was too aroused to fight effectively. He didn't want to be attracted to the blond. He honestly didn't. But he didn't know if he could trust the Pharaoh either. Both were pointing accusing fingers at each other and he didn't know whom to believe. And right now, with the way Jou was sucking on the sensitive skin of his neck, he couldn't really think clearly.

" Jou…please…I…."

Jou chuckled. " Don't you like this Seth?"

Before he could answer, a bunch of foot soldiers ran past the stable. They seemed to be in a fluster about something. The Pharaoh must have sent them after him.

" General Jounouchi?! General Jounouchi?!"

Jou cursed and separated himself from Seth. He started to get away from the flushed High Priest. But not before turning to shoot him a devious smile.

" Don't think this is over Priest. This little game of pursuit is just starting to get exciting."
