Chapter 2

Darkness flooded all of Atem's senses, harsh ropes scratched at his wrists and ankles until they bled and became raw. His mouth was covered with some kind of gag but he couldn't tell what it was, he didn't really know anything!

' Where in the world am I?!' He thought as he again tried to release himself from the ropes, but failed again. Tears stained the cover over his eyes and his throat was tight in fear, he just wanted to go home! He tried to stay calm and focus on his surroundings, he smelled harsh overpowering incenses and the smell of hot candle wax was everywhere!

"Ah, you are awake I see" a man's voice chuckled warmly near the young boy's ear, how did he not know he was there?! Atem thrashed around wildly, fear leading him to move away from the man's voice, though he felt his body knocking over candles on the ground.

"No no, don't do that little one, you might hurt yourself" he whispered sweetly, grabbing the boy up in his arms and moved him back to the soft pillow-like thing he laid on first. His delicate fingers gently removed the mouth gag, and moved it to the side, then softly began to rub the young boy's cheeks.
"I want to go home!" Atem screamed, trying to move the man's hand away from him

"No no sweet one, you're mine now. We will be happy here together if you just listen to me, okay?" He stated happily, leaning in to quickly take those young lips with his in a passionate kiss. The kiss left Atem speechless, he had no idea what the man had just done but it felt sickening.

"I don't want to be with you! Please! I want to go home!" He cried, his whole body shying away from the cold hands that rubbed at his body.

"In time my sweet one you will learn to respect what I have done for you. I've saved you from that horrible place that marks children like animals! In time, you will learn to love me like I love you, my sweet Atem" he purred, rubbing his face against the boy's stomach, his hands quickly reaching underneath Atem's shirt to find his nipples and tweak them harshly. The man's face twisted into a horrifying smile as he listened to the young boy's cries, he quickly removed Atem's clothes and kissed him multiple times, loving the feeling of his lips quivering against his, his tears sliding down his cheeks to moisten his own. His hand firmly grabbed Atem's forearm, right where the orphanage had marked him with his name in hieroglyphics.

"Please... Let me go! What do you want from me?!" He cried again, his whole body convulsing in fear as he was touched in ways he didn't understand.

"Is that not obvious my sweet egyptian fruit? I love you, I want you" the man growled in a husky voice, kissing all of Atem's body, quickly pulling the young one's legs apart. Atem couldn't see what the older man was doing but he something click and something cold and slimy gently slide onto his inner thighs

"What.. what are you going to-" Atem didn't get to finish before something large was all of the sudden being thrusted into him, a pain he never thought he could feel before flooded through his body like fire. As his body moved up and down from being thrusted into at such a hard fast pace he screamed for it to end, but the man just grabbed his throat with so much force be could see spots..br /His screams rang off the stone walls for what seemed like an eternity, his innocence snatched from him by this evil man who constantly praised him and told him he loved him .. How can you say you love someone and hurt them like this? He didn't try to move anymore, his whole body hurt, he knew he had bruises everywhere from that man's teeth and hands, he could feel blood from places he didn't wanna think about.. His eyes were dry and itchy...

"How are you feeling my sweet darling?" The man asked from across the room, walking over to help Atem drink some water, his throat hurt so badly, he knew it was really bruised.

"Please.." He choked out, fresh tears escaping his eyes. The man just sighed softly, then moved his hands up to grab the blindfold. The boy flinched from being touched but let him move the blindfold. He blinked his amethyst eyes several times to try and adjust them, but all he could see was a large dark room with hundreds of lit candles all across the ground, a semi-soft mattress that he laid on was laying on the ground in the middle of all these candles.

"Do you feel better now that you can see my beauty?" The man chuckled, smiling warmly at the young boy in front of him.

"Who.. are you?" Atem whispered, his voice unable to get any higher. The man in front of him want unattractive, his hair was very long and a shade of blue, his facial features sharp and defined, his skin very pale, his build was kind of muscular but more lean.. His eyes were the most sticking though, one was a beautiful emerald green while the other a sharp piercing gold.

"My name is Dartz sweetheart, but you call me master" he replied with a small bow. Atem sighed softly and closed his eyes, flinching when he felt Dartz' hands run all across his bruised body

"Please Dartz... I wanna go home" he cried, his tears sliding down his face into his hair. Dartz sighed and wiped away the tears, kissing his face and neck.

"This is your home now my love. In time you will learn to love it and me, just give it time".

"But I don't want time! I want to go home with my brother!" Atem quickly screamed, wishing he didn't though from pain. A harsh slap sent the young boy's face to the other side if the mattress, then it was quickly grabbed and brought dangerously close to Dartz'

"Listen to me, you are mine! This is your home! I am your family now!" He yelled, flipping the crying boy over and gripped his hips. Before Atem could utter a word Dartz thrusted his hips forward to take the boy's body yet again, his hand coming around to choke him again

If this was going to be his life now he needed to accept it quickly...Or else he might not live to find a way out.. He will get out, he won't break without a fight..

' Yasamet... Save me...'
