I know, both of my stories have the word Second in them lol sillies... well thanks to those who reviewed and faved and alerted! And if you are still with me even though I haven't updated in forever, I love you! Now on to the story!

WARNING! This story will be VERY dark. It will contain yaoi, both willing and unwilling.

I don't want people flaming me because they didn't read the warnings.

Chapter 3

Roxas groaned as he heard the sound of a carriage pulling up outside. It had been a month since Xemnas' first visit and he had been true to his word. He had been coming to visit twice a week, chatting with his parents, staying for dinner, and even trying to talk to Roxas. Though he wanted to avoid the man as much as possible, he had been forced into a few very short, awkward conversations that usually ended with Roxas excusing himself to go to his room.

"Roxas! Come down and greet Lord Xemnas, would you?" He sat up with a sigh and headed down the stairs where his mother was waiting. He stopped halfway down the stairs when he saw that his mother was holding a basket in her hand. "Now I know you won't like this but I'm begging you! Please be polite to Lord Xemnas! I'll be back in about an hour. Pence is still sick and I promised his mother that I would run a few errands for her while she took care of him. Your father should be back from his trip tonight so make sure everything is ready in the stables for his return or you'll be in big trouble later."

Roxas' eyes widened and he froze, realizing that he was going to be left alone with Xemnas. Just then there was a knock on the door that broke him out of his daze and made him race to stop his mother from answering it.

"Wait!" he said, grabbing onto her arm in a panic. "Don't leave!" Aerith sighed and turned around to hug her son.

"It will be okay," she said, chuckling. "I'll be back before you know it. And it's not like you'll be alone. Lord Xemnas will keep you company." Roxas shivered, making her frown and pull away. "Roxas, he really isn't that bad. You just need to let go of your prejudice and get to know him." She shook her head as he turned his pleading blue eyes up at her, trying to make her crack. She leaned down and kissed him on the forehead as another knock was heard on the door. "I love you. I'll be back soon."

Roxas watched as she turned around and opened the door, inviting the silver haired man inside. He didn't pay much attention to their conversation and before he knew it, it was just Xemnas and him, alone in the house. He glanced up at the man and almost turned and ran at the predatory glint in his eyes.

"Well, Roxas, this is a first," Xemnas said, stepping closer to the boy. Roxas just barely resisted the urge to take a step back and keep the distance between them. He knew that he had to try his best not to offend the Lord for the sake of his family. "I've never had you all to myself before."

The boy didn't say anything, just nodded once and kept a close watch on the man in front of him. Xemnas noticed this and stopped his advance, not wanting the boy to run away from him.

"You don't like me very much, do you?" he asked, studying the distrusting eyes that watched him like a hawk. "Would you mind explaining what I did to earn your hatred?" Roxas frowned, not having expected this question.

"You're always looking at me funny. And your kindness is just an act. You have so many people fooled, but I won't fall for it!" Roxas clamped a hand over his mouth and groaned. He was supposed to be polite and what does he do? He insults the man.

Xemnas paused for a moment before he burst out laughing. Not having expected that reaction either, Roxas took a quick step back and kept watching the man.

"You are really something, Roxas." He shook his head and motioned for the boy to follow as he made his way into the next room, taking a seat at the table. He pointed at the seat across from him and Roxas hesitated before sitting in it. "Roxas, I have an idea. When the 2 of us are alone, I see no point in keeping up pretences. So I'll stop my act and you'll stop forcing yourself to be polite to me, okay?" The boy looked skeptical.

"You won't get angry at me if I insult you again?" Xemnas just smiled and nodded. "Good. Now stop coming around here. I'm not going to be a page in your household! You're a creepy old man and I don't think you're doing this out of the kindness of your heart." The man's smile faded and turned into a fake pitying look.

"You poor boy. You seem to think that you actually have a choice in the matter." Roxas froze as Xemnas stood, walked around the table and put both of his hands on the boy's shoulders. "You see, Roxas, I have the power to do whatever I want to your family. Your father goes on hunting trips in the forest, doesn't he? You wouldn't want him to have an accident. Now that would be terrible!" Xemnas paused and smirked down at the boy as he turned to look at him in horror. "He sells his game to the butcher in town to make money to support you. It would also be horrible if someone else started selling his game to him for less. Then the butcher wouldn't buy from your father and you wouldn't have much money to live on. I'm sure your mother isn't making much with that little flower business she runs out of her own home. And then if your mother—"

"No!" Roxas yelled, jumping up and away from Xemnas. "No more! Please! I don't want anything to happen to them." Xemnas' smirk disappeared and he started walking towards Roxas, who started to back away until he hit a wall. He watched as the man leaned down towards him now that he had him trapped, putting his hands on the wall on either side of his head.

"Then you will listen to whatever I say and become a page in my household," he said softly. He looked into the frightened eyes of the boy in front of him and knew he had won when he saw the resignation in his eyes.

"Fine," Roxas mumbled, looking down. "Just... just don't do anything to my family." Xemnas let his hands drop and took a step back.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything. In fact, I'll even help them if they need it." He smirked and walked back over to the table, sitting down in his chair again. "Now when your mother gets back, we can begin talking about how soon I can have you."

"No!" Xemnas looked up sharply, frowning at him.

"What was that? 'No'? I thought we had come to an understanding, Roxas." He stood up again, advancing towards Roxas quickly.

"Wait, I'm sorry!" Roxas cowered, almost expecting Xemnas to hit him from the look on his face. "It's just that... my parents know I hate you. They'll think it's suspicious if I suddenly want to go with you. A-and it's too soon! They said that they wanted me to live at home for a few years longer! And I won't go quietly if you try to make me go sooner!" Xemnas stopped his approach and looked thoughtful.

"How long do you plan to make me wait?" he asked after a moment. Roxas shifted nervously, wishing that he would sit down again.

"I... I don't want to leave home until I'm 13." At that, Xemnas burst out laughing and sat down again.

"You think I will wait 5 years? I don't think so, Roxas. How about after your 10th birthday?" Roxas frowned, shaking his head.

"12, at least!"

"I will not wait 4 years! I'll give you until your 11th birthday then! No more!" His tone clearly stated that there was no more room for discussion. Roxas hated that he had had to haggle for his own freedom with his birthdays. Now he only had 3 left before he was taken away. "Well now that that is settled, I have things to attend to at home. Goodbye, Roxas. I'll be seeing you again soon." And with that, Xemnas was out the door and Roxas was left alone to think about everything that had just happened. He slid down against the wall he was leaning on until he felt the floor under him and kept thinking the same thing over and over.
