Chapter 3 "Absence Of Fear"
Eclipse raised a delicate eyebrow as he entered the library of his castle. His master's castle. On the couch in front of the fire, his master, Lord Raenef V, was asleep, buried under a pile of books. This was what he was stuck with. And yet, he couldn't complain. Maybe this is what he needed. Not to constantly watch his back. And relax a bit. Let go of some of the rage he had within him. Some of the confusion. Maybe Raenef, in his own way, could succeed in helping him do just that. The demon walked over to his lord and started quietly putting the books away on the right shelves.
"'Etiquette of Demons', '100 Ways To Threaten A Person', 'Death By A Demon Lord', 'Kama Sutra'........Kama Sutra?" Eclipse asked the air in bewilderment. He looked back at the innocent teen before filing the book away. The fire was dying down and Eclipse went to the couch, staring at Raenef. The younger demon's skin was perfectly flawless and his hair was loosened in sleep. Eclipse gazed at Raenef and his stomach tightened.
Inside my skin
There is this space
It twists and turns
It bleeds and aches
Inside my heart
There's an empty room
It's waiting for lightning
It's waiting for you
Gently, as to not wake the boy, Eclipse reached out and touched one rosy cheek. At the touch, Raenef was startled awake. Sleepy sea-green eyes stared into the distant scarlet ones.
"Eclipse...I was reading...and I fell asleep—"
"It's okay, sire. I'll go now." Eclipse stood back and was about to say 'go'.
"No! Erm, that is...I command you to stay," Raenef said with as much lordliness as he could muster. Eclipse nodded his head in submission and stood before the disheveled boy. "Sit." Eclipse sat down tensely on the couch and tensed up even more when Raenef slid over to him and lay his arms around his neck, laying his head on his shoulder. "Relax, Eclipse. Don't be afraid," Raenef said softly.
"I know your biggest fear is sharing yourself with people. Because they won't take you seriously, because they won't understand, because they will betray you. They won't appreciate you." Raenef blushed under the cover of the darkness in the room and continued, his voice soft and scared. "There's a lot I'm afraid of too. I'm afraid of telling you how I feel about you because you might cast me away but...I'll take the chance. Eclipse, I want to know about you. I want to know what you're thinking, about your dreams, anything that hurts you...makes you sad. You always seem so sad. And distant. And angry. And I also sense fear. The fear which you cover with haughtiness or arrogance...I want to take it away."
I am wanting and
I am needing you
To be here
Inside the absence
Of fear
Eclipse drew a shuddering breath. Something inside his chest was hurting like it hadn't hurt since he was young and alone. The fire in the fireplace flickered, dying slowly. His head felt light and high, drunk on Raenef's words, and Eclipse's body suddenly grew hot all over. He turned his head towards his young lord and a single gold-tinted tear shined in the corner of his eye. His hands moved on their own accord and the next thing he knew, Raenef's slim body was pinned underneath his on the couch. Eclipse's lips pressed against Raenef's and the teen readily accepted. A lonely tear dropped on Raenef's cheek.
Muscle and sinew
Velvet and stone
This vessel is haunted
It creaks and moans
My bones call to you
In a separate skin
I'll make myself translucent
To let you in
Warm hands caressed Eclipse's chest as his robe was pulled off and discarded. Raenef's robe was long gone. Eclipse kissed Raenef hotly, their breaths hitching and hearts thudding. Their tongues danced together, sliding against each other in need and in passion. Eclipse moved down to the boy's chest, kissing, licking, nipping, and biting him all over, leaving small wet marks. A need rose up in Eclipse. A need to free himself. To lay out his innermost secrets and desires. To share with someone. To be accepted. He pressed against Raenef, wanting his acceptance, his understanding. Wanting to lose himself in Raenef, to plunge into his world, to go so deep that nothing could ever break their connection. Break his salvation.
I am wanting and
I am needing you
To be here
Inside the absence
Of fear
Heavy moans filled the room and the fire still flickered, casting dancing figures on the walls. Eclipse reached down to slide off Raenef's pants and Raenef lifted his torso to help him along. Eclipse quickly slipped his off too, their bodies sweaty and warm. Eclipse stole a look into Raenef's eyes and suddenly, he was shaking so hard he couldn't hold himself up. He lowered himself so he could lay next to Raenef, holding him tightly. He was afraid of Raenef's thoughts, his possible rejection. No one could reduce Eclipse to weakness like this and he was scared. For the first time in his long life, someone had control over him with a word, a touch. He didn't think he was ready to face this. Yet Raenef knew this, and knew Eclipse had to face his fear. Their naked bodies pressed together, tangled. With a shaking Eclipse still in Raenef's arms, he forced Eclipse to look into his eyes.
There is the splendor of this
Secret inside of me
And it knows that you're no stranger
You're my gravity
My hands will adore you through all darkness
And they will lay you out in moonlight
And reinvent your name
"You're beautiful, Eclipse," he whispered, knowing Eclipse was conscious about the flaws only he could see. "You're so strong, and wise. And everything about you is so magical and new and exciting. Your eyes, they're like your soul, beautiful and ethereal and precious," Raenef said and saw tear gently depart Eclipse's eyes. He kissed him softly before straddling Eclipse's thighs. His hands trailed down Eclipse's toned chest and stomach before sliding over the pale column of Eclipse's hardness. Then Raenef raised himself over Eclipse's body.
"No!" Eclipse whispered, but Raenef only shook his head. "Trust me," Raenef said and eased himself slowly onto Eclipse's waiting member. They held each other's gazes, as Eclipse instinctively thrust his hips up to meet Raenef. Formerly-repressed pleasure spread through his body, making the delight only stronger. The concept of time and reality was lost. At some point, Raenef threw his head back and Eclipse grabbed Raenef's hips, both moving in a wild, frenzied dance that was reaching a climax. Eclipse gave one final thrust, a soul kiss© so deep that the cries of the demon and his lord echoed through out the stone hallways of the castle. Silence then filled the library, as the two friends, two lovers, shared a common promise of starting their lives over. The fire finally died as they reminisced upon their past lives. Together.
I am wanting and
I am needing you
To be here
I need you near
Inside the absence
