Summary: Matt is a powerful angel; Tai is a human. Matt has kidnapped Tai from Earth and taken him to the angel-kingdom where he intended to rape Tai. But Matt felt guilt and couldn't rape Tai in the beginning. They're in a strange limbo in this chapter where Matt wants Tai – but feels guilty… But Tai is about to do something that changes the dynamics drastically : )
Hi guys! Here's another installment of Wouldn't It be Nice to Choose. I still haven't told Sierra that this RP is up as a fic on – given up pretending to have any shame. But she should get due credit because she wrote the uke character (Tai).
So Sierra wrote as Tai. Flame (me) wrote as Matt.
It was morning by the time Matt was unlocking his door and entering his home - he was rather exhausted from a very long night of brutal, animalistic rutting. Not that he didn't have stamina - but Karina had always been one of his most enthusiastic lovers and in his effort to make sure Tai knew what was happening next door, he had fucked her almost non-stop. He couldn't have gotten more than an hour's rest at best.
On the very positive side though, he was tired enough for once to not have an instant arousal at the mere hint of seeing Tai again. It was a small victory for his self-control as he let his spent body in - he didn't know whether the brunette would be awake now or what. And frankly, he didn't care much as he stumbled in and exhaustedly made his way over to his bed - groaning as he fell into the soft fur piles.
Tai didn't know what time he finally went to sleep, but it felt like along time after the angel had stopped tormenting him with the sound of his coupling next door. From the spill of sunlight underneath the angel's front door, it was morning and still early once he woke up and yawned. He stretched, bending his body and deciding to make a routine of exercising. For all he knew he would be stuck inside the entire time. He was on all fours now, counting down from two hundred as he did push up and then stretches to help blood flow that his oldest brother, Aktmeh taught their family.
He was the youngest of a family filled with two older brothers and three older sister. All of his sisters had at least one child and his brothers the same, his family was large and yet still close. The older generation taught the younger, while the younger generation helped the older. No one was too petty and everyone got along most of the time.
He was finishing a deep drink from the skin filled with water when the door opened and the pompous angel that he was forced to live with was now back home. He glared at him and turned his back before he watched what he would do. He had no words for him. Later, he would ask to bathe and also for food. Tai still had to reply on the angel for nourishment, but once he was here for a little longer, he would ask to get a job and do something with his life. If he could, he would make his own living and rely on himself the best he could.
When Matt awoke hours later, he was massively pleased (& very surprised) to find that while he still had that burning desire to fuck Tai until he had imprinted himself completely into that slender body, he was much more able to control that desire. Given the promise he had made to not touch the brunette, it came as a godsend. So... I guess all it takes is for me to almost kill myself through dehydration by fucking to not want to rape you, he thought sardonically as he stretched out of bed.
There was some left-over rabbit and a bit of bread from the night before - he motioned for Tai to eat as he had some of the food. He had hunting to do today - and he was slotted to train in the army barracks as well.
A short time later, he was once again leading Tai down the roads and to the army office. "Keep him safe," was the only thing he told Sora - not bothering to make conversation or say anything to his slave before he was out the door to carry on with his day.
Sora eyes were on Tai the second Matt was out of the office and making his way towards whatever it was that he wanted to do. She was staring so intently at him, that Tai shifted under her gaze and looked away. 'He still hasn't raped him.' She thought with a sigh and shook her head. She had no idea if that was a good thing or not but all she was sure of was Tai's feelings towards Matt. The younger human didn't hate the angel, which meant that there was hope for them yet.
"Let's continue with your lessons." She said and motioned for the boy to come and sit next to her at the desk. She taught him new sentences and went over what he was taught yesterday, smiling proudly at him.
For hours they worked on his speech until the door opened and an angel walked in. He was at least three or so inches taller than Tai, with emerald green eyes that the human couldn't help but stare into. His smile was soft, friendly and his hair a light drown that curled around the sharp edges of his face. His cheekbones were high and lips such a light pink that Tai just wanted to reach out and touch him to see if they were as soft as they looked. His wings, Ra, his wings were beautiful. They arched several inches high above his head and started in a soft gold that gradually turned into a light sandy brown once they reached the bottom feathers that nearly touched the ground.
"Hi Sora," his eyes trailed over Tai and for once the dark skinned human didn't flinch, "who is this?"
"His name is Tai, he doesn't know the language yet so he can't great you himself." Her voice lowered, "don't think about it Raeson," she warned. The angel shrugged and smiled again, "no harm. I just wanted to know. I've got some papers for you to sign, just thought I would drop them off now. I'll take my leave," he said and eyed the young human once again before leaving.
By the time the day was ending, Matt was more than a little exhausted. He had hunted today - not just for himself but also for one of the men in his unit who had been hurt in the raid on Mireu. On top of that, he had participated in weekly training required by the angel army to make sure that he stayed in shape. Combined with the lack of sleep from the night before, his tired body was justified.
He dropped by the army office at the end of the day to pick up Tai - once again, not bothering to attempt any pleasant conversation with Sora, he simply waited until Tai came forward to meet him. Then, he grabbed his hand and led him out the door - thankfully, it seemed like Jans wasn't around today and he was eternally grateful when they got back to his apartment with minimal trouble.
With tired fingers, he quickly made a stew using some potatoes, a few squirrels he had managed to spear and some bread. He swallowed his food mechanically before taking a swig of water. Then he was up again, walking out the door - "Sleep. See you tomorrow." He called over his shoulder at Tai before he disappeared into the night.
Karina had asked him not to come tonight - she was rather tired too from the night before it appeared. And so he made his way to another lover's house. A less enthusiastic one - but when he fell asleep, he was relieved to note that he had no desire to rape Tai left in him, atleast for that night.
The awe Tai felt just by looking at the other angel was caught by Sora and she tried telling him over and over not to even think about it. Matt would lose his temper and do something that he even he would regret, she had told him. Tai felt that he didn't care at all. Either that..or he just refused to believe that he cared even with the strange twinge of feelings he now felt. The blond angel was his captor and provider, nothing more.
With a soft "bye Sora," he was being led back to his forced home by a very tired looking angel. There was a small amount of worry he felt. If this man got sick he would have no one to take care of. All he knew of was this angel and Sora. And the other angels he knew the names of..one of them scared him to his core and the other mystified him. He had no one if something happened to Matt. Keeping the angel in good health was something that he needed to remember to do when he could.
He was left with food and told to sleep well before he could think of a proper sentence to ask if the angel needed help. Even if he did dislike Matt more than he could admit, he would help out around the house. This was his new home and he had no want to see it go to an unmanageable state. He could cook also. If Matt brought them food he could cook it while the angel occupied himself. The angel wouldn't always be there to cook for him, he would have to learn how to cook the food the angels ate. He could also ask Sora for help in that. Maybe he would tomorrow.
When Matt walked back into his apartment, the next morning - he was still tired but he had managed to get just enough sleep in between fucking to keep him going through the day. He was very startled to find though that his desire of Tai was even lower than it had been the previous morning. If he could've danced for joy at that moment, he would've done a complete jig by himself. He may be physically tired now; but it was even more mentally exhausting having to fight every instinct in his body that screamed for him to fuck Tai and be held back because he had given his word.
So once again - he shared a breakfast with the left-overs from the night before with Tai. Then he fell into the now routine task of dropping him off at the army offices to spend his day with Sora. His bleary eyes got a good look at the brunette as they walked along. He looked rather grimy - ahh... yes... his little prisoner would need a bath soon. Well, fortunately, that problem was solved easily enough. The army office was the one place in the entire Angel-city with its own bathing pond - the water was brought in every day by new recruits who carried it up from a lake down on the earth below.
"Sora, please ... make sure he has a chance to bathe today if he wants it," he said in the way of greeting and goodbye. He found he was too exhausted to come up with trying to say something to Tai - the brunette wouldn't understand him and they'd have to go through a whole pantomiming routine. So he simply waved goodbye before he was out the door, ready to face his own challenges.
Tai was starting to enjoy his time with Sora more and more. He looked forward to learning and being out of the house and able to see more. He also..wanted to see that too beautiful angel again. Before he took his now usual seat by Sora she looked at him and smiled. "Bath?" She asked and his eyes lit up. "Bath," he parroted with a nod of his head. She laughed lightly and he followed her out of the office and into the back. There was a walk way that led into what seemed to be a forest of deep green trees. After a few minutes of walking, they stopped at a pond covered by high tree tops and yet so much light was allowed in.
"Bathe here," she said and pointed to the lake. "When you're done, you walk back in. Yes?" She asked him pointing towards the way they had walked into the forest. Tai nodded and waited until he couldn't see her any longer to strip out of his clothing and walk into the pond. The water was warmer than he thought and he took several long minutes to simple stand chest deep in the water and himself relax. The human felt cleaner already.
====
Raeson watched the human in awe. There was now no doubt in his mind that the human was the most enthralling he had seen in his life. He had been raiding Earth for ten years now. He had been to numerous human cities and seen men and woman that made him stare for far too long and had his breath catching in his throat from their beauty, but this human...He still had to be young, early twenties and lithe. Skin a light brown and lips a wonderfully soft pink. His body was just on the side of more lean than muscular, just how Raeson liked his men.
The angel liked to believe that it was better if he could choose from either gender and only sought after what made something inside of him stir. Like the smaller human bathing before him. For now, he would continue to watch, this human would never sense that he was there and could continue to be carefree in his bathing and relaxing. Raeson would watch over him and keep him safe from other Alpha angels for now.

Tai took his time and relaxed in the water until his skin started to wrinkle. With a sigh he pulled himself from the pond and let droplets of water slid from his clean skin. Everything felt so much better now that he was clean. It almost made it ok that he was here. He let the sun dry him and dressed quickly, walking back up the path and to Sora to continue his lesson. Once he could ask her without feeling self conscience, he would see what it took for a human to get a job in this world.
It was getting to him each and every day. He tried so damn hard to stop the worry that was like a seed deeply planted in his heart. It grew each day until it was like a small but flourishing plant and it was driving him insane. He told himself that it wasn't because Matt wasn't forcing him into anything. It was never going to be because he liked being pushed down, forced against walls, or ordered into sexual favors from an all powerful angel ready to take what he wanted, when, and how he wanted it and with no remorse to who he felt. It was never because of that.
Matt was hurting himself.
He didn't care about the angel. Not on any level beside the selfish one that made him think that Matt was responsible for him and if he really screwed himself over Tai would suffer too. He could speak fluent sentences now, still mostly basic, but fluent. He could ask for what he wanted and needed and ask about the weather and how much something cost. Today he would use his new speech skills to his advantage, because he was getting so sick of this.
What made it worse, was that Matt had told him to have a good day, he was treating him like he was worth more than sex and it was more unwanted that he would have ever imagined. When Matt was forcing him down he was healthy and..normal. Now he was losing sleep and weakening himself.
Tai was done with the stupid angel and would confront him tonight.
"Tai?" Sora asked and he jerked towards her, eyes wild for a moment before he checked himself and took a breath. "Sorry, I was lost in my mind," the words were still heavily accented but now understandable. He handed her the papers in his hand and she shook her head at him. She was worried about his sudden moods and even more so about how unfocused he had been lately. It wasn't like him at all. Tai was usually so studious and helpful that she had let him help her around the office while he learned. He had even taken to trying to speak with the angels while he learned. Some of them took great pleasure in speaking with the younger human and she was sure that his pretty face was part of the reason.
She was worried though, Raeson was taking an interest in Tai which was dangerous. He belonged to Matt even if Matt hadn't claimed him sexually. Raeson..Raeson wouldn't hurt Tai. He was an Alpha, yes, but he wasn't overly aggressive and was well mannered. He took what he wanted and when he wanted it, but with Tai he took his time. He brought the human out of his shell and even brought him gifts. Usually food but today in was a necklace made of ocean blue shells from the Oreon Ocean on Earth. Tai was in shock and had even teared up a little from the present. Sora didn't know what to do with them. She could only hope that Matt didn't go into a rage once he saw the gift.
Matt quietly let himself into himself into his house. He had nearly worked himself to the point of collapsing today, training in the army barracks for hours before hunting and cleaning a deer. Fairly big game to bring down by himself when he hadn't slept in days. But the exhaustion came with the added bonus of not being overwhelmed with his lust for Tai when he saw him.
He quietly stared at the brunette walking ahead of him. There was something… different… about Tai. He didn't know what exactly. Hell – he could barely keep his bleary eyes open, tired and hungry as he was. Sora was acting strange too… he decided absently as he clumsily began to cook dinner. Something about the way she was staring at him – fear… apprehension… nervous tension… as if she just expected him to fly off the handle.
An hour later, he was seated in front of the fire-place. Hunger was the only thing on his mind as he ravenously ripped into the deer meat on his plate. He glanced up at Tai only momentarily and was dismayed to find his body beginning to spark with interest at the sight of the slender figure digging into his own plate of food.
-
What's it going to take? Am I going to have to die just to not rape you…?He silently asked Tai. He let his eyes wander over that beautiful face before catching a glimpse of a blue neck-lace at that brown throat. That was new. How could he have not noticed it before? It must've been hidden under Tai's outer clothing.
"Where's that from?" He asked, grunting – expecting to hear it came from Sora.
Tai's eyes fell to the gleaming necklace that rested on his chest. To himself, he smiled, reaching a hand up to stroke the smooth stone and look back at the tired angel. "Raeson, present for me." He replied in the angel's language, his words still broken. He remembered the smile the older angel wore when he gave the necklace to him. The human was sure that his smile mirrored the angel's. "Pretty, yes?"
By now, he was sitting on his pellet, relaxing the best he could while innocently thinking of the sweet angel who loved to give him presents. Why couldn't Matt be like that? The angel was nothing like his elder. He was careless about Tai's feelings and, even if he didn't take advantage of him, it was like he would forever keep his own wants over the human's. Unfortunately, Tai knew why, the angel knew what he had been told his entire life-Sora made sure to tell him that...so he would never forget.
Humans were slaves to angels..that was all that Matt knew. Tai just had to live with the knowledge that he would never be treated equally by the angel, not if the angel was Matt. With Raseon, he would be loved and cherished. That was something that he could look forward to, the thought of being with Raeson and knowing that he would never have to be worried about being raped by him.
Matt was surprised by how fast the icy rage spread through his entire body; even more unexpected was the burst of new energy as his exhaustion faded away. That trinket was given to Tai by another angel. An alpha male. Raeson. Matt had heard all the rumors about him – his mother was a human captive. After a while, Raeson's father had returned her to her village, without knowing that she was carrying an angel-child. Raeson was born and spent a good portion of his youth with humans. And it showed in his behavior. He just didn't … fit… with the other angels. He didn't fit in their world at all. And Tai was talking about him with that enamoured little smile on his face… Tai. His captive. HIS.
White hot rage was flowing through him now. It brought a slow smirk to his face as he pinned his glowing bright eyes on Tai. "Yes, very pretty," he said, rising out of his chair and starting a slow stalk towards the brunette. "Ofcourse… it would've been useful to know that your favor was so easily bought by some pretty jewelry. Here I was, trying to make you happy by respecting your wishes even though you're MY prisoner – never mind that it cost me half my savings to give you your own bed so you would have some semblance of freedom. Never mind that I've been working myself to death just so that I wouldn't have the energy to touch you." He kept a pleasant smile on his face even though his blue eyes glowed in angry lust. "I could've saved myself all that trouble and bought you a necklace as well. Perhaps then you'd be looking at me with that pretty smile on your face…," The anger was obvious in his voice by then as he stopped just short of Tai.
"But I'm really glad you showed me this – I realized my mistake." In one fluid motion, he flung Tai from his small bed to Matt's own large one. The brunette landed in the soft fur on his back – Matt met those huge brown eyes with his own livid electric blue – he swiftly pulled off his own tunic, revealing lean muscled arms and chest. "Since you obviously don't have the intelligence or the empathy to appreciate how hard I've been trying, I'm not going to bother anymore." He smiled as he started to undo the string that held his pants up. "Tonight, you're going to be mine."
