Chapter Ten
Sometimes We Lead, Sometimes We Follow

- - 3000 years ago - -

Jou woke up in Seto’s arms with their faces only inches apart. He closed the distance between their lips.

Seto pulled Jou’s body closer as he responded to the kiss, sliding his tongue into Jou’s mouth. He pulled away to take a deep breath. “I want you.”

“I want you too,” said Jou stroking Seto’s hair.

“Can I have you?” Seto ground their hips together slightly.

“While I would like that very much, I’m not ready to do that yet. Please, wait for me,” whispered Jou.

“I will wait,” whispered Seto, “I have nothing but time at the moment.”

Jou kissed Seto again. “Thank you.”

“Are you still tired?” asked Seto caressing Jou’s back, “We could sleep some more.”

“I am still tired,” said Jou, “Could we just lie here together for a bit longer?”

“Of course,” said Seto, “I’m rather tired myself.” He tightened his embrace upon Jou and yawned. “Get some rest, puppy.”

“I’m not a puppy,” whispered Jou. He smiled and mumbled, “I’m your puppy.”

“Yes, my puppy,” whispered Seto as Jou snuggled into his chest.

With their heartbeats pounding in rhythm, the brunet and blond fell back into sleep still within each other’s warm embrace.

‘I really do hate to do this to you, Jou, but I want you to stay with me. This might be the best way to get you to do that,’ thought Seth sniffing the liquid after putting in the final herb, ‘This love potion will work quite well. So maybe the word love potion is a bit overrated. It’s more of an aphrodisiac than it is a love potion. It will aid the feelings that already exist, but it won’t create new ones. It should work well enough though. I know you love me.’ He dipped a small vial into the liquid to fill with the potion.

Seth corked the vial and poured up the rest of the potion into a small jug that he sealed and hid within the trunk where he stored his clothing. He tucked the vial into a fold of his clothes and headed off to find the blond puppy.

“Next is the formal ceremony to announce to the people I am the new Priestess of Osiris and Sephiroh is the new Priest of Seth,” came Shizuru’s voice from a room down the hall.

Seth stepped to the doorway and looked inside.

Mokuto looked at the floor sullenly. “I can’t believe it’s finally true. You’re a Priestess now.”

“Yes… a Priestess… my life will just get harder from now on…”

“I can’t believe what they made you do at the Trials!” exclaimed Mokuto. His cheeks flushed, either from anger or embarrassment.

Shizuru’s cheeks reddened from sheer embarrassment. “Maybe I shouldn’t have told you about that…”

“I’m glad you did!” exclaimed Mokuto looking Shizuru in the eye finally, “I have the right to know who the competition is!”

“Competition?”

Mokuto’s entire face brightened from embarrassment.

“You think Sephiroh is competition? For what? My friendship? I can be friends with you both at the same time without favoring one over the other,” said Shizuru.

“I don’t care one way or another if Sephiroh’s your friend or not,” said Mokuto determinedly, all traces of embarrassment now gone from his face, “I just don’t want to have him as competition for your heart!”

“…” Shizuru blinked several times.

“Did you want to? Did you want to let him into your body like that, Shizuru?” asked Mokuto, “I know you had to participate willingly, but that didn’t mean you had to want to do it. You had the choice to either do it and become Priestess or not do it and not become Priestess. It wasn’t much of a choice, but you didn’t have to want to mate with him! Did you want to?”

“No,” said Shizuru.

“Is that true?”

“I wouldn’t even let him kiss me.”

Mokuto moved closer to Shizuru. “Will you let me kiss you, Shizuru?”

Shizuru smiled.

“I’ve loved you for as long as I’ve known you, and I knew one day I would take you as my own,” said Mokuto, “Do you want that too?”

“Yes! Yes, Mokuto! Yes!” exclaimed Shizuru throwing her arms around Mokuto’s neck and kissing him on the cheek, “I love you! Claim me as your own!”

Mokuto kissed Shizuru on her lush pink lips.

Seth moved away from the doorway after silently closing the door. “I wish you the best of luck with your love, brother.”

Several long moments later, Seth found Jou in the most unexpected place he ever thought to find the other, in the Temple of Osiris.

“What are you doing here, Seth?” asked Jou getting up from his kneeling position, “Have you come to pay homage to a different God than your own?”

“Is that what you’re doing?” asked Seth, “Paying homage?”

Jou grabbed some of the herbs that had been in the box the merchant gave to him, and he tossed them into the fire before which he had been kneeling. “Yes.”

“Are you happy?”

“Happy? I miss my friends. I miss my real sister. What reasons have I to be happy?”

“Shizuru is now Priestess of Osiris,” said Seth.

“Yes. I am happy for her,” said Jou turning towards Seth and approaching him slowly.

“It would appear that my brother and Shizuru are greatly in love,” said Seth, “I suspect they will be married once they come of age.”

“And I am happy for them,” said Jou smiling.

“We should celebrate their happiness with a drink.”

Jou nodded and walked over to a chest along the wall. He opened it and pulled out a bottle of the finest drink and two cups.

“Here. Let me pour,” said Seth moving to Jou’s side, “Sit down and relax.”

“I am a bit tired,” said Jou, “It takes a lot of energy to be avatar to a deity for such a long time. I suspect Seto is still sleeping.” He sat down and closed his eyes.

Seth quickly pulled out the vial and emptied its contents into one of the cups. Then he filled both of them with the refreshing beverage. Being mindful of which cup contained the aphrodisiac, he sat beside Jou and passed the other a cup.

Jou opened his eyes and took the cup. “Let’s see… a toast… To Osiris!”

“To Ra!” added Seth.

“To Seth and you!” exclaimed Jou.

“And you,” said Seth with a smile.

“To Shizuru and Sephiroh!”

“To the Pharaoh!”

Jou took a drink.

“To love,” whispered Seth. He took a drink. “The sun will set soon.”

“Yeah. Another day ending,” said Jou, “Another day away from home. At least I have good company!”

“Would you like to join me on the roof in our usual spot to witness the end of the sun’s journey?” asked Seth.

“Yeah. That would be nice,” said Jou, “Dinner too?” He drained his cup and set it down beside him.

“I’ll provide something for you to eat,” said Seth, “Are you hungry?”

“A bit.”

“Then I will make sure to have something delicious ready for you to eat,” said Seth giving the inside of his cup a lecherous grin as he finished the delicious liquid. “This is good. What is it?”

“Water purified by the lesser Priests, fruit juices extracted by the avatars, herbs tended and prepared by the neophytes,” said Jou, “It’s the closest thing we have here to Ambrosia, the drink of the Gods.”

“Delicious,” said Seth.

“Yeah… it’s very good. It’s only used for special occasions,” said Jou.

Seth leaned over and gave Jou a kiss. “I love you, Jou.”

Jou blushed.

“I’ll see you shortly upon the roof,” said Seth standing and putting their cups on the chest before heading out of the temple.

“Osiris! What am I getting myself into with that one?”

After a moment of silence when Jou received no response, not like he actually expected one he would understand anyway, he stood and headed back towards his room to fix his hair before meeting Seth on the roof. He entered his room and immediately heard soft singing coming from the balcony. He headed over to the balcony’s entrance to investigate.

“Is this really how you want your life to be? Scaring away anyone who tries to care about you? Living your days out just doing the work you do? Isn’t it time you learned by now… Cold and alone is all you’ll ever be,” sang Seto as he leaned against the balcony looking out across the sand. He sighed. “But you designed it that way you know. You are the product of your own design. You are your own reward. Only you can change the way you’re built. You are your own punishment.”

Jou smiled at the effect his song lyrics had on the untouchable heart of Kaiba Seto.

Seto hummed along to the tune before singing, “Do you really try to hide away your pain and happiness? You know you are your own reward!”

“You are your own reward!” sang Jou.

Seto spun around. “Jou!”

“Hi.”

“Hi.” Seto blushed. “I really do like that song. I was trying to remember the lyrics, but I can’t seem to remember them all.”

“Would you like me to sing it for you again?” asked Jou, “I have a little bit of time now.” He smiled. ‘Heck, the sunset will still be there tomorrow. Seth can wait!’

“Would you?” asked Seto returning the smile. “Sing for me, Jou… Please.”

“When the darkness surrounds you… And you have no place left to go… Stand tall, be strong! Let your inner light guide your way! You’ll find you are your own reward. When there’s nowhere left to run… Don’t stop! Stand your ground!” sang Jou slowly walking towards Seto, “You can fight to save what’s right. Just be true to yourself. And you are your own reward!”

Seto held out his hand for Jou.

“Will you sing the chorus line with me?” asked Jou taking Seto’s hand.

“I… think I remember it all,” said Seto with a nod.

Jou nodded and began to sing along with Seto, “You are your own reward! Your strength and your courage… Your fire to go on… You are your own reward! You’re not as dumb as you might think. You’re smarter than anyone knows. You are your own reward! Kindness is not a weakness. It might be your greatest strength. Just remember you are your own reward.”

Jou slid closer to Seto and blushed when the brunet wrapped two strong arms around his body.

“Let’s try something different on the next chorus,” whispered Seto.

“No one can be your inspiration… To be the very best you. It’s a decision you make yourself… Just to see what you can do… Cause you are your own reward. Don’t be another assimilation! You know what you want to do. You know who you want to be! Only you lead yourself to salvation… Cause you are your own reward.”

“You are your own reward! Your strength and your courage. Your fire to go on. You are your own reward!” sang Jou and Seto, but then Seto placed a finger over Jou’s lips to silence him while he alone continued to sing, “You’re not as dumb as you might think. You’re smarter than anyone knows. You are your own reward!”

“Kindness is not a weakness. It might be your greatest strength,” sang Jou once Seto removed the finger to allow him to sing again. He smiled as Seto added his voice to the last line of chorus, “Just remember you are your own reward.”

“Is this really how you want your life to be? Scaring away anyone who tries to care about you. Living your days out just doing the work you do. Isn’t it time you learned by now? Cold and alone is all you’ll ever be,” sang Jou. He felt a stirring in his lower body, and he blushed. He whispered into Seto’s ear, “But you designed it that way you know. You are the product of your own design. You are your own reward. Only you can change the way you’re built. You are your own punishment.”

Seto clenched his eyes tightly and pulled Jou closer to his chest. Tingles of pleasure raced down his side from where Jou whispered so enticingly into his ear.

“Do you see the people who could love you? Do you like making them feel worse than you?” sang Jou, “Do you know what you’re doing in the world? Do you really try to hide away your pain and happiness? You know you are your own reward!” He rubbed up against Seto, pressing his clothed erection into the other’s hip.

Seto moaned slightly in want when he realized how aroused Jou was at that moment. He didn’t try to suppress his body’s own response by reciprocating the act and pressing his newly formed erection against Jou’s hip.

“You are your own reward! Your strength and your courage. Your fire to go on. You are your own reward!” sang Jou and Seto.

“You’re not as dumb as you might think. You’re smarter than anyone knows. You are your own reward!”

“Kindness is not a weakness. It might be your greatest strength.”

“Just remember you are your own reward.” Seto and Jou looked deep into each other’s eyes.

“When the heartbreak is at your door… And the pain is just seconds away… Do the only thing you can do… Let it be a test of the heart. And you’ll be your own reward!” Jou shifted his position slightly so their bodies lined up flush against the other. He wrapped his arms around Seto’s neck as he slowly ground their hips and arousals together. In a slightly more seductive voice he said, “I know that I’m my only reward… But I hope you see it too.”

Seto nibbled on Jou’s ear while the blond sang, “Je m’aime. Je t’adore. Voulez-vous venir avec moi? Voulez-vous danser avec moi? Voulez-vous m’adorer? Voulez-vous être votre récompense?”

Jou pushed Seto away and started to make his way back towards his bedroom.

“You are your own reward! Your strength and your courage. Your fire to go on. You are your own reward!” sang Jou and Seto.

Seto followsed Jou into the bedroom as he sang, “You’re not as dumb as you might think. You’re smarter than anyone knows. You are your own reward!”

Jou glanced over his shoulder to make sure Seto’s blue eyes watched him before he rapidly shed his clothing. “Kindness is not a weakness. It might be your greatest strength.”

Seto blushed nearly as much as Jou as they sang together, “Just remember you are your own reward.”

Jou quickly discarded everything from his body so he stood in only his flesh. He sat down on the edge of the bed and reached one hand towards his straining member. “Seto? Do you want me, Seto? Do you want to be my lover? Do you want to move this relationship of ours past the borders of friendship?”

Seto watched Jou begin stroking himself. He licked his lips and swallowed. “Yes, Jou! Yes! I do want you! I want you so much!”

“Then start undressing, Seto,” whispered Jou. His lust-filled eyes stared at Seto while his hand worked to pleasure himself.

Seto wasted no time in doing as his lover demanded, and his clothing fell to the floor at his feet. The entire time he undressed, he watched Jou to see his reaction to the flesh revealed to the hungry honey-brown eyes.

Jou licked his lips when he saw the large penis sticking up between Seto’s legs. With a final stroke, he closed his eyes and moaned loudly in the midst of his release.

“You didn’t wait for me, puppy,” said Seto sauntering over to the other on the bed, “That was a naughty thing to do, puppy. You should have waited for your master. I would make sure you get all the pleasure you can handle.”

“Yes, master. Thank you, master,” whispered Jou opening his eyes to look at Seto, “Pleasure me, master.”

“Oh, I intend to, puppy,” said Seto smirking. He pulled Jou into a passionate kiss. “Now tell me, Jou, my precious puppy, how many times do you think you can handle tonight?”

“Many!” exclaimed Jou.

“We’ll see,” said Seto gripping Jou’s hardness and stroking it himself. He continued to kiss the blond while bringing him to completion.

“Please, master Seto! I need more!” exclaimed Jou humping his hips against the empty air above him.

Seto lubricated his fingers with Jou’s semen. “I don’t want you to regret this, Jou. Do you want me to take you tonight? You said you weren’t ready this morning. Are you ready now?”

“Yes! Yes! I’m ready! Take me! Take me now!” exclaimed Jou.

“Not yet. Your heart may be willing, but your body needs some help,” said Seto helping Jou to lift and spread his legs. He lowered his mouth over Jou’s quivering member as he slipped the first finger into the tight, puckered opening.

Jou clenched his eyes shut from the stinging of the entrance, but a second later, he moaned from the pleasure of the tongue caressing his need.

“Speak to me. Speak French to me,” said Seto after pulling away from the engorged flesh. He sucked the organ back into his mouth.

“Je m’aime. Je t’adore. Voulez-vous venir avec moi? Voulez-vous danser avec moi? Voulez-vous m’adorer? Voulez-vous être votre récompense?” whispered Jou.

“Oui. Je t’adore,” mumbled Seto while adding a second finger into Jou’s channel to stretch him even further.

“Damn, Seto,” whimpered Jou tossing his head from side to side.

“Relax.”

Jou focused solely on relaxing his muscles, allowing the tenseness he felt to leave his body. He screamed when Seto forcefully sucked on his cock. He lost himself completely in the pleasure upon his cock so he didn’t even feel the third finger enter.

Seto moved his fingers around until he finally hit the spot that made Jou thrash around and nearly choke him with the penis he suckled. He swallowed around the head to elicit the salty-sweet juices.

Jou stared at Seto with barely seeing eyes as the hand and mouth withdrew in a smooth motion. “Seto!”

“Jou…”

“Fuck me! Fuck me now! Fuck me hard!”

“Oh, I will… but not yet,” said Seto crawling up Jou’s body and straddling his head, “You’re ready for me, but I’m not ready for you. Suck me, puppy.”

“Yes, master!” Jou wasted no time in following the command. He started with a simple lick of his tongue all the way from the base of the pulsating cock in front of him to the slit in the top. He pulled as much of the flesh into his mouth as he could and sucked on it wantonly to lubricate it with his saliva.

Seto grabbed Jou’s hair and held the head still as he thrust in and out of the open mouth. He panted heavily as his climax approached. “Oh, Jou. Suck harder for me.”

Jou tightened his lips around Seto’s erection and sucked as hard as he could while Seto continued to thrust. He felt the liquid spurt in his mouth and down his throat, but he tried to hold as much as he could within his mouth to slick up the member even more.

Seto pulled out of Jou’s mouth and stayed above him as he moved down his lover’s body. He locked his lips with Jou’s. He used the kiss as a distraction when he pushed his erect penis into the still tight passage of Jou’s ass.

“Thank you,” whispered Jou quietly as Seto settled himself deep inside. He wrapped his arms tight around the brunet and held him close as a few tears escaped his eyes.

Seto licked the tears away and kissed Jou’s forehead.

Jou’s eyes showed his love and lust as he gave Seto the go ahead and the brunet started to thrust in and out of his body.

Seto and Jou gazed into each other’s eyes as their bodies moved together as one. Their breath mingled even as they kissed and showed each other all the passion they possessed. Seto’s cock struck Jou’s pleasure center, forcing the honey brown eyes to roll back in pleasure and a scream to be ripped from Jou’s throat.

“There! Seto, there! Faster!” exclaimed Jou starting to counterthrust against Seto to force the penis against his prostate again and again.

Seto sped up his thrusts as fast as he could. He gripped Jou’s erection and stroked it fervently as he tried to satisfy them both.

Jou captured Seto’s lips in a heated kiss until he pulled out of it crying out Seto’s name in a moment of passion. His seed bathed Seto’s stomach and chest just moments before Seto’s own orgasm coated his insides.

With a final kiss, Seto pulled out of Jou’s tight channel.

Jou shifted beneath Seto as he once again felt the heat of arousal burning in his stomach as his otherwise exhausted cock slowly erected again. He whimpered.

Seto kissed Jou’s shoulder in an affectionate manner. “What’s the matter, puppy?”

“Please, Seto… Once more?”

Seto pushed himself off Jou. He smiled. “Okay… on your hands and knees, puppy…”

Jou blushed, but he still obeyed and rolled over so he got on his hands and knees like a dog. “Yes, master.”

Seto pumped himself a few times to get his body to erect once more before he pushed into Jou from behind.

“Yes, Seto! Fuck me like a dog! Fuck me like the dog I am, master!” exclaimed Jou, “I’m your puppy! Fuck me… like I’ll always belong to you!”

“You will! You will always belong to me!” exclaimed Seto pounding roughly into Jou’s ass.

Moments later, Jou spilled his release onto the bed, and a few thrusts later, Seto released inside him once again. Both teens collapsed onto the bed together, and Seto pulled Jou up against him.

“I’m tired now. Can we go to sleep?” asked Jou.

“In a minute,” said Seto before kissing Jou full on the lips. He smiled. “No regrets, right?”

Jou smiled. “Never with you.”

“Same here,” said Seto, “Now we can go to sleep.”

Jou snuggled into Seto’s arms and closed his eyes, falling asleep after only a few seconds.

Seto draped the thin blanket over them before settling down to sleep as well.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Seth paced around on the roof waiting for Jou. He sighed as he looked at the moon hanging high in the sky. “He’s not coming.”

With the darkness of night masking his presence, Seth headed down from the roof and straight towards Jou’s room thinking the aphrodisiac must have been stronger than he believed and Jou would be helplessly pleasing himself at that very moment. He stopped when he heard a sound coming from beyond the door. ‘That sounded like Jou… screaming!’

“There! Seto, there! Faster!” exclaimed Jou’s muffled voice from inside the room.

Seth silently opened the door a crack so he saw inside just in time to watch Seto grip Jou’s erection and stroke it. He glared at the other brunet, not only for daring to touch what should rightfully be his but also for getting a piece of the sweet ass first, and that’s not even mentioning the fact his blood boiled in the knowledge that it was his aphrodisiac causing Jou to be so desperately needy.

As Seth gazed on, Jou kissed Seto before pulling away enough to cry out “Seto” while his cock spurted out his cream onto Seto’s stomach and chest.

With a kiss, Seto pulled out of Jou.

Seth clenched his fists and turned his eyes away, only to hear Jou whimper. He snapped his eyes back onto the newly aroused blond once more.

Seto kissed Jou’s shoulder. “What’s the matter, puppy?”

“Please, Seto… Once more?”

‘No!’ screamed Seth’s mind, but he couldn’t manage to get his voice to work. ‘Jou is not a puppy! Don’t touch him, you bastard! He belongs to me!’

Seto pushed himself off Jou. “Okay… on your hands and knees, puppy…”

Jou quickly rolled over and got on his hands and knees like a dog. “Yes, master.”

‘Master? He’s calling Seto master now? Have I really lost all hope of love? And why in the names of the Gods does he have to be kneeling like that?’ Seth gazed at the scene for a moment more. ‘Come to think of it, Jou does sort of resemble a Pharaoh hound in that position. Maybe that’s why Seto’s calling him puppy. But it is no reason for Jou to act as if he were Seto’s slave!’

Seto pushed into Jou from behind.

“Yes, Seto! Fuck me like a dog! Fuck me like the dog I am, master!” exclaimed Jou, “I’m your puppy! Fuck me… like I’ll always belong to you!”

“You will! You will always belong to me!” exclaimed Seto pounding roughly into Jou’s ass.

Seth turned away, unwilling to watch the scene unfold any more, but he had yet to find the strength to leave.

“I’m tired now. Can we go to sleep?” asked Jou quietly from within the room.

“In a minute,” said Seto. “No regrets, right?”

“Never with you.”

Seth closed the door and hurried towards his own room. Jou’s last words kept echoing in his mind. ‘Never with you. Never with you. Never with you… Would he regret it if he ever slept with me?’

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Jou squirmed against the arms holding him tightly. His eyes snapped open as he realized he’s trapped by another being rather than the blankets and pillows his sleepy mind thought it was. He looked into Seto’s still sleeping face, and he smiled as the memories of what they did came back to him. He brushed a lock of brown hair away from the closed eyelids. “It wasn’t a dream.”

“But it was still very good,” whispered Seto opening his eyes.

Jou blushed bright red. “You were awake?”

“Just arousing,” whispered Seto smiling.

Jou groaned at Seto’s choice of words and buried his burgundy face into the pillow.

“Would you like to go again?” whispered Seto into Jou’s ear.

“Sorry, a little too sore,” said Jou, “Besides, I need to pee too much now anyway.”

Seto rolled his eyes, but he released Jou from his arms. He sat up and climbed from bed. Then he noticed the filled bathing pool, and his cheeks flushed. “Oh, gods.”

“What’s the matter?” asked Jou sliding across the bed to rest right behind Seto.

“The tub is full,” said Seto walking over and kneeling to feel the warm water, “And it’s warm.”

“So?” asked Jou standing up and nearly collapsing from the pain in his ass.

“That means the slaves came in and filled the tub, and saw us lying in bed together naked, so they know we had sex last night!” exclaimed Seto blushing even more.

“Oh.” Jou blushed again. He wobbled over to the corner where his personal ‘toilet’ waited for him. “Are you embarrassed about having sex with me?”

“No! I’m embarrassed about being seen after having sex!” exclaimed Seto, “What if the blanket slipped in our sleep and they saw our…”

“If it’s any consolation to you,” said Jou while relieving his full bladder, “I think you have a wonderful cock and a great ass.”

Seto sunk into the water. He slid down until the water completely covered him.

Jou stumbled over to the small pool and slipped in beside Seto who came up for air still flushed from embarrassment. “So… do you think you might ever want to do this again?”

“Of course I might!” Seto smiled.

Jou smiled and grabbed the diminishing bar of herbal soap. He slid in front of Seto and started to wash the brunet’s chest. “Yeah… me too.”

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

It wasn’t until later that morning, after a quiet meal of fruit in his room, and after Seto left to talk to one of his spies hunting Dorobo Bakudan, that Jou finally realized the full weight of his actions with Seto the night before. He headed out of his room with as much speed as he could muster, and he made his way to the Temple of Bastet where he knew Mai would still be feeding her many cats.

“Mai!”

“Aw! Good day to you, Jou!” exclaimed Mai placing the last bowl of milk in front of Cerele. She turned to look at Jou and gasped when she saw his expression. “What’s wrong?”

Jou flung his arms around Mai’s waist and burst into cold tears.

“Jou! Cousin, speak to me! What’s wrong?”

“I can’t believe I let him… I mean that jerk… I couldn’t stop… I needed… I actually wanted… I can’t believe how foolish… It couldn’t have meant anything… It wasn’t supposed to be that way! My mother… Osiris, my father! Shit… I was supposed to be… The ritual… I swore…!”

“Hey, calm down there, Jou! Explain this to me slowly. What happened, cousin?”

Jou took a deep breath. “I slept with Seto last night. I let him take my body… my virginity, but it wasn’t supposed to be that way!”

“How was it supposed to be? Tell me your dreams. How were you supposed to consummate your love?” asked Mai smiling.

“Losing my virginity was supposed to have nothing to do with love,” said Jou sadly. “You see, back home, I was to become a religious leader. I think my parents actually wanted me to become a Priest, but I’m not sure. They had arranged a woman for me, for when I was to go through the ritual and become the leader. I swore to them I would be a virgin until then… that I would lose my virginity to that woman as she would lose her virginity to me. They haven’t explained all the intricacies of the ritual with me, so I’m afraid there isn’t more I could tell you, but apparently at the end of the ritual both she and I would be religious leaders, a Priest and Priestess you could say.”

“So you are intended to go through the Trials of Ptah’s Children and become a Priest of Osiris?” asked Mai.

“I guess…”

“Well, then don’t worry about your virginity,” said Mai, “Neither Lord Osiris or Lord Seth actually demand their avatars be virgins before entering into the Trials of Ptah’s Children. Those restrictions are placed upon mortals by mortals. It was your parents’ demand you remain a virgin, but Lord Osiris will not complain.”

“He won’t?” Jou looked at Mai hopefully and wiped his eyes against her chest.

Mai laughed. “No. Lord Osiris understands the sexual needs of his people.”

Jou sighed with relief.

“Now explain to me how you came to sleep with Seto… that seems to be troubling you still, cousin,” said Mai pulling Jou over to a cushioned bench where they both sat.

“I was singing a song for him, and it just sort of happened. I got so aroused I could barely see straight, and with him right there in front of me, and our attractions for each other now so apparent… I asked him to be with me…” Jou’s voice trailed off as he remembered in silence.

“Did he hurt you?”

“Just a little, but that’s normal I guess. He tried to prepare me as best he could, but we didn’t have anything for lubrication,” said Jou, “So he used some of my… stuff.”

“He used your what?” asked Mai raising an eyebrow curiously.

Jou blushed.

“It’s okay to be embarrassed, but you can talk to me about anything,” whispered Mai.

“He pleasured me with his hand so he could get me to release, and he used that as lubrication when he stretched my entrance,” said Jou in a quiet, shy voice, “And while he was stretching me, I learned what a talented mouth he has! He was sucking on me. Then he asked me to suck him to completion so we could use my saliva and his release to slick him up.”

“Perhaps you should try using massage oil,” suggested Mai, “It’s not as intimate, but the herbs Namu placed in them might help.”

“Massage oil? Dammit! Seth left some of that in my room and I totally forgot about it!”

Mai giggled.

“Yeah, so we had sex and it hurt a bit at first because my body wasn’t used to it, but then it was all good!” exclaimed Jou blushing, “And when we were done… I still wanted more, so I let him… I even asked him to… take me like a dog. He always calls me a dog, and last night I proved to him I am a dog just like he said. Dammit! I can’t believe I let him fuck me like a damn dog! He’ll never let me live this down!”

“Jou… Jou… Jou!” exclaimed Mai trying to get the attention of the fuming blond beside her.

“What?” snapped Jou.

“Did you enjoy it?”

Jou nodded.

“Did you enjoy having sex with Seto?”

“Yes.”

“Did you like it even when he took you as a dog?”

Jou closed his eyes and sighed. “It was wonderful. It put him in the perfect position to hit my pleasure point every single time. Of course I enjoyed it. If there’s one thing Kaiba Seto is sure to know how to do, it’s fuck people over!”

“Now, Jou. Tell me honestly. Do you regret having slept with him?” asked Mai running her hand through Jou’s hair.

“Would you believe me if I said I didn’t? I don’t regret it. It’s funny that I don’t regret it because I always thought I would if it ever came to that, but how can I? Honestly, how can I regret something that feels that right? That pure and good? It felt perfect you know, like I was always meant to have his dick inside me,” said Jou, “This sounds confusing, doesn’t it? I don’t know what I’m trying to say, but I don’t regret having slept with him. It felt wonderful, in more than a bodily sense.”

“I think I know what you mean. I feel the same way every time I kiss Isis, and the feeling of completeness only grows when we lie in bed together,” said Mai.

Jou curled up beside Mai and wrapped his arms tightly around the blonde haired woman. “Thanks, cousin. You’ve made sense out of all this for me. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome, Jou.” Mai embraced Jou and held him tightly. “Now tell me honestly, what is it that really bothers you about sleeping with Seto?”

“I let him have it so easily. I was acting like a wanton whore. And I know it couldn’t have meant anything to him,” said Jou with a sigh, “It couldn’t have meant anything to him, but it meant the world to me!”

“What did it mean to you?”

“I think I’m in love with him, Mai…”

Mokuto rolled over in the bed and felt around in the air beside him. He opened his eyes and sat up sleepily. “Shizuru?”

“Sleep well, Mokuto?” Shizuru’s amber eyes turned to gaze upon the sleepy boy in her bed. She smiled as she finished affixing her new clothes onto her delicate frame.

“It could have been better. I could have woken with you still beside me,” said Mokuto. “Why aren’t you in bed?”

“I’m sorry, but I need to go into the temple. I have much work to do now. There is a festival approaching, and none of the arrangements have been made,” said Shizuru, “I didn’t wish to leave your arms. You make me feel so safe, but I have my duty to Lord Osiris.” She walked back over to the bed and slid into Mokuto’s arms.

Mokuto kissed Shizuru. “You look beautiful as a Priestess, Shizuru. Very beautiful.”

Shizuru smiled.

“If only everyone could be as happy as I am with you,” said Mokuto.

“Are you thinking of Seth?”

“Without Jono around, who has he truly to love?”

“What about Jou?”

Mokuto’s eyes sparkled mischievously. “Should we ensure they get together then?”

A malicious grin spread across Shizuru’s lips. “What did you have in mind?”

“Can you grab Seth and bring him up to the balcony that faces the rise of day and night? You know the one, where I took you to celebrate your birthday?” asked Mokuto, “I will find Jou and bring him there as well, in time so they can watch the journey of Thoth’s orb as it rises and traverses the sky.”

“I bet Jou would look simply divine by the glow of the moon,” said Shizuru, “I’ll see that it is done tonight!”

“And you and I will slip away to leave them in the romantic atmosphere! It will be the perfect opportunity for those two idiots to get their act together and admit they are madly in love with one another!” exclaimed Mokuto. He pushed Shizuru away from him. “Now go on! Run to your temple before I drag you back into this bed and waste all that time you used putting on those clothes!”

Shizuru giggled as she headed out of the room with a quiet, “I’ll see you tonight.”

“It’s been so long since we could sneak in a moment like this,” whispered Hiroto pressing Otogi against a wall.

“Can’t you even stand to be away from me for five minutes?” asked Otogi as his brown haired lover kissed a trail upon his neck, “We made love just last night! We spent the whole of our morning meal together locked at the lips!”

“Are you upset that my appetite for you is so insatiable?” asked Hiroto before kissing Otogi’s lips.

- - Modern Day - -

Honda pushed Otogi up against a wall and hissed into his ear, “Leave her alone!”

“Why should I leave Shizuka alone?” asked Otogi glaring at Honda, “She’s really emotional right now! She needs a shoulder to cry on! You just want it to be yours!”

“Shut up!”

“I bet it’s really eating you how she’s spending so much time hanging off Mokuba’s neck!” exclaimed Otogi pushing Honda away, “You’re so jealous!”

“Shut up!” exclaimed Honda. He forced his body up against Otogi’s, pinning the black-haired teen against the wall.

“Why should I?” asked Otogi, “You’re jealous of Mokuba because he’s getting all of Shizuka’s attention! You’re jealous of me because I had a long talk with her that resulted in me holding her while she cried over her missing brother!” He pushed against Honda. “I’m not trying to take advantage of her! That would be low, even for me! I’m just trying to help…!”

Honda forced his lips to Otogi’s to silence him.

Otogi’s body tensed for a moment before he slumped against Honda and threw his arms around the other’s neck to kiss him in return.

- - 3000 years ago - -

“Yeah, well, it’s your fault!” exclaimed Hiroto removing his lips from Otogi’s.

Otogi blushed as he panted. “Huh? What’s my fault?”

“You are so delicious you make me insatiable for you.” Hiroto leaned in for another kiss.

Atemu walked into the room with Shada and Mahaado on either side of him. He stopped in his tracks.

Otogi’s eyes widened as he spotted Atemu and the two other Priests. He shoved Hiroto away from himself and bowed to the Pharaoh. “Forgive us, Pharaoh, for our indiscretion.”

“Nothing to forgive, Otogi, but I would like to regain the use of this room for my briefing with the other Priests,” said Atemu smiling. “I’m sure that whatever duties you have could wait for a short time while you have a lie-in in your bedroom.”

Hiroto grabbed Otogi’s hand and said a hasty and grateful “thank you” as he dragged his lover out into the hallway.

- - Modern Day - -

Honda pulled out of the kiss. “What was that?”

Otogi blinked at Honda in confusion and blushed. “What do you mean? What was that? You kiss me and you don’t even realize it?”

“I was just trying to shut you up.” Honda blushed.

Otogi leaned back against the wall and turned his head so he faced away from Honda. He kept his mouth firmly closed.

“So why did you kiss me back?”

Otogi didn’t answer.

“What’s wrong? Why won’t you talk to me now?” asked Honda.

“You wanted me to shut up, remember? I thought I was just giving you what you wanted!” snapped Otogi.

Honda kissed Otogi quickly on the cheek.

Otogi blushed.

“So… should we continue this little conversation?” asked Honda before kissing Otogi’s lips again, “What does it mean if I enjoy kissing you?”

“It means we’re bisexual because I enjoy kissing you too,” said Otogi.

“Hey, would you like to go out with me later? After we get Jou back?” asked Honda.

Otogi wrapped his arms around Honda and smiled. “I think I’d like that.”

Mokuto knocked gently on the door to Jou’s room.

“Come in…”

Mokuto pushed the door open and entered. He saw Jou on the center of the bed with his notebook and a pen. “What are you doing, Jou? Studying?”

“No. Not really,” said Jou, “I wrote the lyrics to a song, and now I’m trying to add in the music notes, but it’s hard since I don’t have an instrument to work from.”

“An instrument? What kind of instrument do you need?”

“I’ve already asked around, Moku,” said Jou, “and you guys don’t have anything here that I know how to play.”

“Sorry.” Mokuto looked sad for a moment. His eyes suddenly perked up and he smiled mischievously. “Hey, I have an idea! It won’t help with your music problem, but maybe it will give you some inspiration!”

Jou sets his notebook and pen down on the trunk at the foot of the bed. “Okay, Moku, what’s this great idea then?”

“A change of scenery!” exclaimed Mokuto, “I know of a place within the castle that will give you the most inspiring view of the countryside at night! It’s really quite beautiful!”

“Beautiful, huh?”

“Yeah. I took Shizuru there on her birthday,” said Mokuto blushing slightly.

“Did she like it?” asked Jou skeptically.

Mokuto nodded.

Jou sighed. “Fine. Let’s go.”

Mokuto’s lips curled into a mischievous smirk. He guided Jou out of the bedroom and quickly up the stairs to the selected balcony. “Very few people come here, but it really is one of the most breath-taking views.”

“Yeah, it really is,” whispered Jou as his eyes rested on the sight before him.

Lightly tanned flesh glowed in the moonlight as the chestnut brown locks waved in the delicate breeze. A floor-length, sleeveless robe hid most of the body from view with its burgundy colored fabric, but the appreciative gaze of the honey colored eyes remained fixed upon the form they knew all too well, clothed and bare.

Jou took a step towards the figure with his back to the staircase. His sandals barely made a sound upon the stone. He pulled his sapphire blue cape around his arms to ward off the slight chill from the breeze and his fingers entwined themselves into the ruby red border.

“Seth! You’re here!” exclaimed Mokuto as soon as he saw the brunet. His voice broke the serene spell within the night air.

Seto turned around to look at Mokuto and his eyes rested directly on Jou and the way the moonlight reflected off golden hair, sun-kissed skin, and the beautiful eyes. He smiled. “Good evening, Mokuto, Jou. It is a pleasant night to enjoy the wonders of the world.”

Jou smiled and blushed slightly. “Yes, it is.”

“It really is a lovely night, huh, Seth?” said Mokuto, “I think I’ll go spend it with Shizuru. Have you seen her, big brother?”

Seto turned his eyes to Mokuto. His confusion barely showed through his cerulean eyes. “Shizuru? No… I haven’t seen her for quite some time.”

The sound of quiet voices attracted their attention to the forgotten staircase as Shizuru pulled Seth by the hand up the last of the stairs. Shizuru smiled when she saw Jou and Mokuto standing close together, but her smile faded slightly as she looked beyond them to where Seto stood.

Mokuto’s eyes widened as he realized his mistake. “Seto? Seth!”

“Good evening, Mokuto,” said Seth, “I see you had the same idea as Shizuru.”

“What?” Mokuto blushed.

“To come gaze out upon our mother land in the moonlight,” said Seth.

“Oh, yeah! I thought Jou would appreciate the view from here!” exclaimed Mokuto quickly.

“It would appear he does,” said Seth looking at the way Jou’s eyes moved across Seto’s body.

“Perhaps it would be best if we all retired for the night,” said Shizuru, “I’m sure we all have important tasks to do in the morning.”

“Yeah,” said Mokuto moving to Shizuru’s side and taking her hand from Seth’s, “I’ll escort you to your room, Shizuru.” He quickly pulled her down the staircase.

Seth moved towards Jou and brushed a blond hair away from his face.

“Maybe we should go to bed too, huh, guys?” asked Jou stepping away from Seth’s hand after hearing the possessive growl come from Seto’s throat.

“Yes. It is late at night,” said Seto, “I trust you will sleep well tonight, Jou.”

Seth glared daggers at the other brunet, and Seto merely smirked at Seth, not bothering to glare back. The tension in the air around them grew tense and treacherous.

“Let’s walk together, Seto,” said Jou, “since our rooms are right beside each other. Besides, I don’t remember the way back down!”

“I’ll take you back to your room,” said Seto turning his softening gaze to Jou before following the blond down the stairs.

Jou quickly pulled Seto towards their rooms. “For a second there, I thought Seth was going to try to kill you!”

“He could try. He wouldn’t succeed,” said Seto.

“I’d rather he not get the chance to,” said Jou as they reached Seto’s room and stopped before the door. His cheeks blushed as Seto opened the door. “Seto…”

Seto raised an eyebrow. “Would you like to come in, puppy?”

Jou pushed Seto in and kissed his lips quickly.

Seto closed the door before wrapping his arms around Jou’s waist. He guided them both over to the bed and pulled Jou down to its surface with him.

“Will you let me be in control now? Just for awhile… and then I’ll submit to you,” whispered Jou blushing, “Will you allow that?”

Seto swallowed hard, but as he looked at Jou, he saw the nervousness filling the other’s boy’s eyes. “You can have your way, for now.”

Jou kissed Seto fiercely as he removed the brunet’s clothing from his body. He dropped the adornments to the floor beside the bed. He started kissing his way down the lean neck and torso as he pushed the clothing away and helped Seto out of it. He took a deep breath as he discarded the clothes onto the floor. “You’re… perfect.”

Seto blushed slightly under the intense scrutiny of the other.

Jou pulled off his own clothing slowly, blushing the entire time. He took a moment’s pause once he dropped his wardrobe on the floor with Seto’s.

Seto ran his hands across the span of Jou’s chest. “Soft… smooth… I love the feel of your skin, Jou.”

Jou hung his head. “Do we… um… do you have anything in here that might… make this union easier? Lube or something?”

“I’m sorry. I don’t,” whispered Seto.

“Don’t move. I’ll be just a moment,” said Jou climbing from the bed quickly. He kissed Seto’s lips once before rushing out onto the balcony and entering his room. He grabbed the bottle of massage oil left in his room from when Seth helped his hurt back. He hurried back into Seto’s room and placed the bottle on the table beside the bed.

“Where did you get that?” asked Seto eyeing up the bottle.

“It’s a massage oil. Shizu got it for me after I hurt my back helping her,” said Jou crawling back into the bed, “It may not be the best thing to use, but it has to be better than nothing at all.”

“I’ll make sure to use it well,” said Seto.

Jou kissed Seto and slid down his body with a quiet, “Less talk.”

Seto moaned as Jou’s hot mouth closed around his erection. “Puppy…”

Jou sucked and massaged the other’s cock, trying to satisfy his sexual need with rudimentary skills.

“Jou!” cried Seto when he released into his lover’s mouth.

Jou swallowed what he could and wiped the rest from his mouth with the back of his hand. He lay down on top of Seto and listened to the heart beating excitedly within the firm chest beneath his head.

Seto took a moment to simply hold Jou before he rolled them over and poured some of the massage oil into his hand. “Spread your legs for me, precious puppy. Let me pleasure you now.”

Jou blushed even as his body obeyed the command to spread his legs. “Take me, Seto…”

“Oh, I intend to,” said Seto with a smirk as he slipped one finger into Jou’s opening.

Jou squirmed slightly as he tried to get used to the feeling of the foreign digit within him. He took a deep breath and relaxed his body.

Seto used a fiery, passionate kiss to distract Jou from the movement of his finger and the subsequent adding of a second finger.

Jou’s hands gripped Seto’s shoulders tightly and he moaned into the kiss. He felt the fingers inside him brush against a bundle of sensitive nerves and he bucked his hips uncontrollably to try to force the scissoring fingers to repeat the process. He pulled out of the kiss to moan wantonly when a third finger slipped inside to continue stretching him. “Seto! I can’t wait! Take me already!”

“Okay, Jou, but I’m going to go slow. I don’t want to hurt you.” With one last scissoring action, Seto removed his fingers. He smiled at Jou as he positioned himself in front of the blond’s entrance. He slowly pushed himself into the tight heat.

“Do you love me?” whispered Jou very quietly, “On second thought… don’t answer that now. If you do, I certainly don’t want this to be how you tell me the first time.”

Seto acted as if he didn’t hear the hushed tone and he merely kissed Jou full on the lips to silence his rambling. He slowly began a rhythm of moving in and out.

Jou wrapped his legs around Seto’s waist and crooned softly at the feeling of the large hand wrapping around his straining cock. “Oh, Seto.”

Seto moaned loudly and placed a sloppy kiss half on Jou’s mouth as he spread his seed inside Jou’s tight channel.

Jou’s own orgasm rushed up to greet him and he spilled everything within him onto Seto’s chest.

Seto pulled out and lay beside Jou to cuddle up against his lover.

Jou snuggled into Seto’s arms and nearly tried to bury himself within their offered warmth. He wrapped his own arms around the brunet’s waist and thought these words, ‘Love you…’

“Sleep well, Jou,” whispered Seto.

“You too,” responded Jou in a whisper to match.

Seto and Jou both closed their eyes and allowed sleep to draw them in.
