CHAPTER 23
.
.
The horse kept trotting in the mud, Rivaille whipped him to run faster but it was impossible with the extra weight of two bodies mounted on it.
The rain pounded to the point that they almost could not see the slippery slope in front of them.
Dead tree trunks corroded by animals and bodies half buried in mud thronged halfway, like dead like sentinels waiting to catch its prey.
Pained groans mingled with chaos, were muffled by lightning that extended the horizon, omnipotent.
They continued advancing, Eren Rivaille felt Eren trembling in his arms and decided to run, no matter what happens from now on, the worst was over.
"Do not look back, stay here with me."
He knew he was covered with blood and the water washed all the dirt from his body, still see his immaculate lover holding a bloody knife and staring desperately was too much for him. Eren was not a person who was born to kill anyone, all the dirty work has always been done by him, why this young man had to go through all this?
Rivaille galloped faster, trotting across the gravel until cross a wooden bridge with dead trees dry branches swayed violently, like giant arms with various lurking to grab their victims.
.
Eren closed his eyes tightly, as if in a trance. The only thing that left him are the noble's hands, holding the reins tightly, the same hot breath next to his ear conveyed safely.
After they crossed the canal, the bridge was destroyed and all that was left behind was now carried off by the flow.
The animal reduced the trot and approached a large fortress with high and fortified walls. Several sentinels pyres lit incendiary that extended the entire length of the fort to announce the arrival of the chief guest.
A large wooden gate was extended to the ground. Several guards were lookouts outside, property and standing at attention, holding their flags and guns, as if they were prepared for an attack.
The wind roared desperately as some torches went out with the force of the rain. Gunmen shouted orders to each other but the noise of thunder prevented Eren trying to understand what they were talking about.
The gate returned to its upright position and the young man found himself in a strange place surrounded by soldiers. They both looked frightened as Rivaille did not stop to greet them.
They galloped through a tunnel that connected to a smaller fortress, with a tower serving as a lighthouse. The horse has already showed signs of fatigue but still galloping firm.
.
Rivaille dismounted the animal first, his face was covered with fury, his black hair was pasted on his face along with the luxurious clothes ripped around his body showed clearly that he had trouble.
The servants who were waiting bowed to the ground to appease his wrath.
"We need to call a doctor, my lord?"
"Useless!" He spoke to them with his low voice, rain to fall on the tiles making a small song. "Strengthen the entry, if someone approaches the fortress, whoever it is mate. Am I clear?"
They fell silent.
"Do not make me repeat my orders! I will have your head hanging on a stake."
Everyone looked with fear when they actually remembered what this man was capable of doing.
For a few seconds his eyes when he placated the wrath when he helped Eren to dismount the animal, kissing his head and smiling as his arms tightened around his neck.
The servants came over in a panic to see him deal with this strange boy in a totally different way.
"Thanks for saving me, I do not know how many debts I still have accumulated with you." He smiled when the noble traced his lips with his fingers, his eyes glazed with lust.
"Pay one of them now." He pushed him into a nearby wall, setting him on a table decorated with a large map. A tube of paint fell on the floor and blurred the map that was torn in half when Eren sat upon it.
.
Rivaille pulled his hair back and licked his neck, devouring Eren's mouth in a rough kiss. One hand dropped to his back a few inches from touching his butt.
He was interrupted by a boy who said that the doctor was ready to serve them. All the servants looked on in horror at the boy spoke with his lord without being ordained.
Eren disentangled from Rivaille, his mouth was swollen and bleeding, his eyes blinked, as if coming back to reality.
"Oh..." That was the only thing he said. The torches lit his half nacked body, which he quickly tried to hide. He felt a twinge in his abdomen when cloths brushed it, his face was redder more than normal.
Rivaille ignored the boy who looked surprised at them, he had never seen his Lord bring someone to this place since it was bought from the slave market with his mother. Many said to him that that person was his fiancée but what he saw was a guy... the boy looked confused.
The noble approached Eren who retreated to the map table, watching surprised to realize that all those people kneeling before them were watching his every move. His hand trapped him on the wall while the other rested on his thigh slowly, their faces approached again until he licked the corner of his bloodied mouth, biting the ear of lightweight, making him sigh with pleasure.
.
Soft hands landed inside his abdomen, Eren screamed, he smashed what was left of the map and let out a sigh, with his face contorted in pain.
"He is bleeding."
The boy's voice again that pointed to the wound on the Eren's body.
Rivaille abruptly stopped his advances to the body and looked down at his hands stained red.
His lover had tears running down his eyes.
A peasant woman covered the mouth of his son that he would stop talking. Eren's forehead was covered with sweat, his body trembled and he let out a hiss of pain when looking at the wound oozed blood without stopping.
"Where is the doctor?"
All servants moved away to make room for a masked man entering through a door of iron. His steps were light and he was dressed all in black, holding a staff in his left hand.
With a slight movement Rivaille carried Eren, the young man had a glimpse of several men dressed in armor holding weapons and shields in both hands, their faces capped by helmets, hiding theirs eyes.
.
"Nobody is allowed to enter, just him." With a nod he dismissed all around.
"My lord... everything is already prepared as you had coordinated to consummate your wedd..."
"I told everyone to leave."
"Yes, my lord."
Both paid salute to the nobleman who surpassed the doctor when climbing the stairs. He no longer cared about the rain or the servants, all he wanted was to feel the heat of Eren in his arms again.
The fortress was a less scary than castle, even with the rain and howling winds he felt safe.
Rivaille carried him down a flight of stairs that seemed to never end.
The courtyard wall was covered in giant tapestries adorned with drawings of animals, only serving the purpose to hide the bones and skulls of enemies that were used as a foundation to build that wall.
Arrangements of white flowers were hung on all windows, curtains - originally red - were replaced by pure white, lit by torches that reflected their shadows to ceiling mirrored rounded. Both stopped in front of a large room. There was no one there and it disturbed Eren.
.
The door was open, it was a big door made of wood. The handle was carved in gold in the form of a wild animal. Woodcarvings showing millimetric details of abstract designs of lovers kissing in explicit poses, whoever was the artist who managed to dig into the wood he must have had too much work.
His body was shivering, he looked at Rivaille and realized he was soaked with blood, he wore less clothing he and the clothes were all torn.
Eren noticed that the decor of the fortress was different, as are the frames and crystal chandelier around the room. His eyes rested directly on the bed, the only furniture with sheets of red, highlighting the decoration.
"I sent the servants away so we can have more privacy."
As if reading his mind Rivaille responded immediately, setting him on the bed and holding the young man next to a large vase made with porcelain.
"Let...let me go!"
"I'm checking your wound." He undid the buttons slowly, avoiding touching the wound. Eren felt like he was taking shocks all over his body "I need you alive."
Eren turned his face to the side, quietly. His hands were shaking and he sighed with every touch. It was not right. His body spasmed in pain and he almost fell on the floor next to the glass, until Rivaille grabbed him forcefully back to the sheets.
.
His hands were more Rivaille bloodstained, Eren felt the temperature drop and stumbled again.
"Why you have not told me that you are hurt?"
"When did I hurt myself..." He blinked, his mind began to spin and lost consciousness for a few seconds.
"Eren... Eren..." Rivaille gave him little slaps on his face. "Wake up that's an order! Say anything!"
He closed his eyes and sighed, his voice became more and more distant until he lost total control of his body.
"Don'you dare pass out from this wound you idiot!"
He supported his head in his lap, the younger was still unconscious.
"I love you." The noble whispered in his ear. "Look at me again, please... one more time."
The doctor was leaning against the wall, just waiting for a command to start the operation.
