Chapter 8

Sudou was pissed. He had made great progress with the King but all for it was ruined overnight by some omega whore. Seeing them together made him sick and having the King openly reject him in favor of the omega made his blood boil and even though he wanted the omega dead already, he had to play it smart or the King will have his head on a platter. Luckily for Sudou he knew the Kings biggest weak spot, betrayal, and with omegas being famous for being sex dolls, he felt that it would be easy for him to turn the King against the omega. He just had to wait for an opportunity to set the trap.

The King was thoroughly enjoying his time with Akihito. It was the omega's first time leaving the village, so all this was new to him and he held nothing back in letting his wonder known. Asami patiently answered his questions and would point things out from time to time, the King made it a point to point out the very busy brothel to the young omega and enjoyed the bright red blush that followed shortly after the explanation.

"Are you joking! That's disgusting, who would want to go to some filthy place to have sex with some stranger! How is this even legal!?" Akihito ask, finding his innocence amusing Asami couldn't help but to laugh.

"It is, if a women or man want to sell their bodies for some money who am I to judge. Besides the business does a lot of good for the town and brings in an enormous amount of money. Plus, it gives women some power over the men who look down upon them while also stroking the egos of the men who pay for the sex."

"How do you know all the people working there are doing it willingly? One of the missing omegas from my village could very well be working there?" the fierceness in Akihito's eyes were not lost to Asami. He knew this was a touchy subject, but he shared Akihito's view on this particular matter.

"Then that would be human trafficking and I have no tolerance for such things. If a person is willingly selling themselves then I don't care but once someone is force to I make it my personal business to get involved. I won't lie to you, most of the time I go unaware because of how large my kingdom is and how hard it is to catch them, but I do make a great effort to stop it." Looking Akihito dead in the eye, the King grabbed the omega's chin, so he couldn't look away. "What your Chief did was despicable, and it is something that I would never do. I am sorry for the people you have lost because of his selfish decision but I will make sure that nothing like that happens to you or your family."

All Akihito could do was stare at the King. He knew that he wasn't being lied to or played a fool here and that brought him great peace. He was a little worried that something like that might happen to him once the king grows bored of him but now his worries were brought to rest and was replace with some emotion that Akihito couldn't quite place, but he knew he was happy to hear that form the King.

Snapping out of it, Akihito softly slapped the Kings hand off him and looked away again. Choosing to stare out the window instead at the piercing gaze Asami was giving him. "It's not like I would go so easily anyways so you're just saving yourself the trouble." Akihito stubbornly replied making the King once again chuckle.

"No doubt about that." The rest of the ride was silent until they came to a three-story high building that seemed to hold a lot of rooms. It seemed to be busy but was no where near as busy as the brothel they had just passed.

Stepping out of the wagon Akihito fallowed the King closely, uncomfortable of the attention that they were getting. It seemed like every person was watching them, the eyes seemed to burn Akihito's back as he tried to move quickly away from them. They walked up the three flights of stairs with Kirishima and some other guy that Akihito didn't know. Kirishima opened a door and held it open for Asami and Akihito to enter.

"We will meet in an hour time in Suoh room. For now, see about some dinner for Akihito and have a guard outside his door." The two men bowed and left the room to follow out the orders.

"What about you? Aren't you going to eat something? And why is there a guard outside my door? Do you think I'm going to run away or something?" Akihito asked with his arms crossed in front of his chest, giving as much attitude as possible but Asami just found it cute and highly amusing.

Walking over to the young man, Asami stopped so he was right in front of him. "Well aren't we just full of questions today. I believed once we were out of the carriage that you would stop but it appears that I was wrong." Asami smirked at the boy as he turned bright red with embarrassment.

"Sorry, I didn't realize that I was bothering you, your majesty! If you find me so annoying, then maybe it wasn't the smartest idea to bring me with you then!" Akihito got angrier at hearing the older man laugh at his little rant.

"I never said you were annoying and if you think that you would get rid of me so easily then you are mistaken kitten. Now put your claws away for now, we have somethings that we need to discuss." Hearing that got Akihito's attention. It seemed curiosity did in fact get the cat.

"What is it?" tilting his head to the side a little.

"We are almost back to my castle and as such you need to be aware of some rules that you must follow."

"rules?" Akihito was a little offended but mostly he was still curios. What could be so important that Asami felt the need to have a chat about it.

"Yes, three to be exact. All are for your safety as well as mine. Any rule breaking will result in punishment given by yours truly." Pausing in the explanation to give the omega a serious look while bring one of his hands to Akihito's chin so he wouldn't look away. "The rules are; you must be with a guard at all times, all areas are open to you unless I tell you differently and in those cases you must avoid those areas during that time, and most importantly, to never betray me. Think you can handle that?"

Slapping the hand away from his chin, Akihito replayed in an annoyed voice, "Ya ya ya, i got it. You know I'm not a child right."

"Good," smiling down in amusement at the obvious angry shown on the omegas face, "then we shouldn't have a problem. And if you run into any trouble or anything suspicious tell your guard or myself immediately."

"Don't you think your worrying over nothing? It's your castle, shouldn't I be fine there?" Akihito ask, crossing his arms over his chest as he gave Asami a skeptical look. For all Akihito knew this was a ploy to control him and make him worry over nothing.

"My enemies are not to be taken so lightly, follow the rules Akihito or it will be your ass that pays." Reaching around to give the omega a hard slap on his ass to give an example.

Yelping from the pain, Akihito was about to make a retort but there was a knock on the door to stop him. "Come in." Asami commanded as he laugh at Akihito for rubbing his butt. Kirishima walked in with a tray full of food which he sat down at the table, following him was Suoh with a cup and a pitcher that was filled with some alcohol. "Be good and eat your dinner Akihito, I will be back later." Asami said as he ruffled the omegas hair and headed out with his two trusted employees.

Shutting the door behind him, Asami made eye contact with the guard in charge of watching over Akihito while he was gone. "If anything happens to you, it will be your head. Understand?" Asami made his eyes cold as ice and a voice to match it. He wasn't going to take any chances with his new kitten.

"Yes, my King. I will guard him with my life." The guard said and gave a deep bow the King. Pleased, Asami walk away with Kirishima and Suoh.

Three hours had passed since Asami left and Akihito was sleeping pleasantly in the bed after he ate all the food and drank almost all the alcohol. Asami having gone through the maps to find the quickest way home, restock on what they needed to make it home and checked in on all the men and horses, was finally coming back to his room.

Entering the room, Asami smiled seeing the little omega sleeping in the bed. He certainly was a cute sight to be seen. Asami quickly undressed and got into bed and had Akihito lay on him instead of the pillow. Right when he was about to fall asleep there was a knock on the door, sighing softly to him he gave a "come in" with out moving.

Kirishima came in with a grave face. "I'm very sorry your highness but a fight broke out between one of our men and a villager." Sighing again, Asami gently moved Akihito off him and took the cloths Kirishima offered to him. Looking back at his omega sleeping in his bed one more time before he reached down and gave an affectionately rubbed the boys head before he left to deal with the situation.

Hiding in the dark corner of the hall was Sudou, he had heard Kirishima and smiled pleasingly to himself. Unknown to everyone, Sudou had told a drunk at a near by bar that his wife was with a soldier and he even went so far to point out a random guard.

"Alright Shin, he is right inside the room." Sudou said looking back at the guard. Sudou had notice the man looking at Akihito with lust in his eyes and knew that he could use it to his advantage. Shin is known for his rough sex life and had no problem taking it from an unwanted partner. Furthermore, Sudou knew Akihito wouldn't say no, seeing how he put a muscle relaxer in his drink from earlier. Everything in his plan was falling into place and soon he would be back to being Asami number one again.

"Good, I can't wait to get a taste of that sweet ass. Watch the hall and let me know if the King should come back early." After that Shin opened the door with a sinister smile at seeing the little omega still asleep in the bed. Sudou shared the smile as he went back to his own room on different floor, leaving Shin as the fall guy when Asami comes back.

Akihito was woken up from his deep sleep by a tickling sensation on his chest. Moaning in dissatisfaction, Akihito tried to swat whatever caused the tickling away, but he couldn't seem to move his arms. Blinking his eyes open, it took Akihito a second to make things out with his mind still clinging to sleep. Looking down at his now expose chest, he found an unfamiliar face giving his chest some kisses and licks.

"Wwwhat are you doing? What…. who are you?" Panic start to swell in his chest as he tried once again to move his arms but to finally notice them being tied to the bed above his head. "What the hell!"

Instead of answering, Shin stopped his actions and sat up on his knees and just spent a moment to admire the omega beneath him. The lovely kissable lips, bight blue eyes and hair that seem to shine silver, all very appealing features meant little to Shin as the unblemished white skin that seem to be begging to be touched. Reaching down he gave the frighten boy a gentle caress on his cheek before he gave a harsh slap, painting the cheek a lovely shade of red.

"Speak again and I'll gag you." Placing a hand over Akihito's throat, Shin gave it a good squeeze not enough to cut off air completely. "Now be a good little omega and spread those gorgeous legs for me."

Akihito, not one to be easily controlled, gave Shin a defiant look and shook his head as much as he could. "No? Hmm, we'll have to fix that now won't we." A painful scream left Akihito's mouth when Shin gave a harsh bit to his shoulder. "Now for that gag." Was the only warning Akihito got before some cloth was shoved into Akihito's mouth muffling any attempt the boy tried to make.

Pleased with the sight of the abused shoulder, Shin decided to make more of those beautiful bit marks. Striking again, Shin went to Akihito chest to deliver more of those ferocious bits.

Unable to move or scream for help, all Akihito could do was close his eyes and try hard not to cry. The lower Shin's teeth went the more and more Akihito struggled. When he felt a hand play with the hem of his pants did Akihito have enough. With a new wave of energy Akihito fought with all his might to get Shin off, but unfortunately for the little omega he was no match for the well-trained soldier and all he ended up doing was tiring himself out and getting Shin angry.

During this struggle both had miss the door opening and Asami walking in with a very surprise Kirishima behind him. A dark aura surrounded the King as he took quick steps forward to get this traitor off Akihito.

Still unaware of the doom looming over him, Shin said, "You still haven't learned." Bringing his hand back to give a hard blow to the omegas face but the hit never came. Opening his eyes to see what the was going on, Akihito saw a very furious Asama standing close to his bed. Looking around for Shin, he found him on the floor a couple feet away from him with blood trickling down his head and standing over him was Kirishima holding both his hands behind Shin's back.

"Your orders sir?" ignoring him Asami instead walked closer to Akihito, he reached down and pulled the cloth from his mouth. Even with his mouth freed Akihito didn't speak in fear that he might anger the King more.

Asami anger seem to skyrocket as he looked over all the injuries that Akihito now had. "He is now to be treated as a traitor. No food, no clothes and he is to be kept tied up. Once we get back to the castle I will give out a punishment he deserves. Now leave."

Still not looking at the two as they left the room, Asami reached down and undid the binds on Akihito's wrist noticing the blood and bruises on his wrist as well from the struggle. "Stay here while I get something to treat your wounds." Before he could move however a knock came from the door, "What."

Suoh entered with some warmed water, bandages and some medicine. "Excuse the interruption but Kirishima said you would be needing this." Giving a deep bow, Suoh made his exited quickly after putting the items on the table near the King.

Looking over at the items Asami was pleased with Kirishima foresight. Picking up the rag that was in the water he began to clean the wounds, starting with the wrist. "You going to tell me what happened here?"

"You speak like I should know. Last thing I remember was falling asleep in bed alone and then the next I was woken up by a stranger on top of me and my wrist tied up. Besides where were you during all this?!" Akihito moved his head slightly to the right so Asami would have more access to the bit on his left shoulder.

Smirking to himself Asami said, "Did my little omega want me to come and save him from the big bad wolf? Had I known that you wanted my attention so badly I wouldn't have left you for so long. Next time just say something instead of going through such extent." Having finish cleaning the boy off, Asami grabbed the medicine and started applying it.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING?! Of course I didn't want this! That man wouldn't even let me speak and every time I tried he would just hit me! Damn you, don't act like I had wanted this!" furious, Akihito slapped Asami hands away from him and covered his whole body with a blanket as he curled up in a ball to get away from the King.

"If you keep hiding like that I won't be able to be able to complete your treatment." Trying to softly pull the blanket away from the younger boy but he wasn't budging. Sighing to himself Asami tried a different approach. "Relax kitten, it was only a little teasing. If I thought you were a willing participant I wouldn't be taking care of you now." That seemed to do the trick as Akihito moved the blanket off him and allowed Asami to continue his work.

Asami worked on taking care of the boy in silence, once finished he put the blanket back on the boy and pushed him down so he was laying down. "Now that's done you need to get some sleep, tomorrow we will be back on the road again and aren't stopping till we reach the castle." Moving so he was laying down next to the boy he gave him a kiss on the forehead. "Goodnight kitten."

"Ya ya ya… Goodnight." Blushing slightly at the treatment Akihito curled onto Asami chest. Though he was embarrassed by the obvious show of weakness he didn't move away. After what he just went through he wanted to make sure he was safe before he closed his eyes. Asami sensing what the boy needed put his arm around the boy's shoulder and had it rest there as he closed his eye and start to fall asleep.

Both soon fell asleep quickly after in the comfort the other provided them unaware of the angered intruder standing there looking at them with a deep frown. This plan might not have worked but Sudou wasn't about to give up so easily.
