[My dreams are always surreal, but very rarely involve sex of any
kind. So, when the image that inspired this story cropped up for a few
seconds one night, it stood out in later recollection. I decided that
it just might be worth fleshing out... so to speak.]
A Perfect Fit
by Optimizer
As he carried in his carry-out dinner, he immediately noticed the glow
coming into the darkened kitchen from the living room of his
condominium. Many people would not have been sure if they had left a
light on, but his career demanded meticulous attention to detail. The
fact that the alarm showed no signs of tampering was another bad omen.
Silently placing the boxes of Chinese food on the counter, he glanced
at the phone. The line appeared to still be live; it hadn't been cut.
As expected, the message light wasn't blinking. He had little contact
with his family and the nature of his work discouraged socializing.
All this had taken scant seconds. He drew the gun from his shoulder
holster and advanced to the doorway. Flashy home ambushes were vastly
more common in fiction than reality, and any operative sent for
assassination would be unlikely to be clumsy enough to make his
presence so obvious... but that was no reason not to be careful. He
hadn't been in this kind of situation in years, but it was like riding
a bicycle. The muscles remembered.
He quickly peeked around the corner, and jerked back to review what
he'd glimpsed. One man, sitting casually in the recliner, a book held
open on his lap. No obvious weapons or backup.
"I am unarmed, Mr. Harper," came the voice from the living room.
"Please, come in. I am anxious to finally meet you." A rich, cultured
baritone with a faint accent; Portuguese, or maybe Spanish. Latin
American, certainly. But it had been close to a decade since he'd been
stationed in South America...
He stepped in cautiously, eyes roving, gun at the ready. After a rapid
survey of the room, he moved to a secure point with a view of all
entrances and adopted a classic two-handed Weaver stance, targeting
the intruder's chest. "All right, you have sixty seconds to explain
why you should live."
A slight Mona-Lisa smile had appeared on the man's face. He was
middle-aged; probably in his late forties but in excellent shape. Dark
hair, slim mustache, a Latin cast to the skin; the suit he wore was
impeccably styled. He seemed entirely at ease; either he was running
an impressive bluff or else he was supremely confident. "My business
will take rather longer than that, I fear."
"So far, you're not convincing me. Fifty seconds."
"I suppose introductions are in order. You, of course, are Stephen
William Harper, former field operative and current intelligence
analyst at the CIA. My name is Vinicius Filinto Henriques Ferreira.
Does the name remind you of anything?"
"Nothing in particular. Thirty seconds."
"Perhaps you recall my niece, Juilia Carmina Melo Ferreira?"
A split second to look up the name in his memory, then he squeezed the
trigger - the muscles never forgot. But nothing happened. It dawned on
him that his hands were empty. The gun was gone. No... he grabbed for
the weight at his shoulder, and found the gun back in its holster. The
handle felt cool as he yanked it out again, as if he hadn't been
holding it at all. Alarmed, he re-targeted the man one-handed and
tried to fire.
Again, his hand was empty. Thoroughly confused, he saw the gun,
holster and all, sitting on the end table next to Vinicius. He began
to feel actual nervousness. Whatever else was going on, Ferreira was
clearly an amateur; professionals avoided such drama. A frightened
operative was dangerous.
"I see you DO remember. Excellent reflexes, by the way." The smile was
full and condescending now. "They are, however, quite useless against
me, as you can see."
Steve was understandably unnerved, but a former Army Ranger didn't
give up easily, whatever the situation. He stalled for time. "What
exactly is your game here?" he asked as he shifted his weight.
"My 'game' is perfectly..." He stopped short as Steve made his move,
leaping forward and swinging the base of his hand in a short arc
calculated to snap the man's neck. It failed to connect and he
struggled to keep his balance. He numbly registered that he was back
on the other side of the room, and Ferreira was well out of reach.
There was a pause as the two men regarded each other, displaying
equally startled expressions. Then Ferreira burst out laughing.
Steve felt a flicker of panic this time, but he clamped down on the
emotion with long-practiced surety and maintained control. Clearly
there was something going on here he didn't understand. Until he could
sort things out, he'd allow Ferreira to think he was in charge.
Cooly, he bit out, "That's a neat trick. How's it work?"
Ferreira, too, had regained his composure - though his eyes still
twinkled. "Magic, of course," he stated matter-of-factly.
Hearing, out loud, the word that had been rattling in the back of his
mind was oddly calming. Now Steve was SURE it was an angle, a con. An
impressive effect, to be sure, and he was definitely in trouble... but
that would make it even more valuable after he'd turned the tables,
somehow. "Riiiiight..." he drawled.
"Your disbelief is quite understandable, even under the circumstances.
Most 'mystics' are fools or madmen or charlatans. Only a few, a VERY
few, know how to contact the... entities that lie beyond this plane,
and fewer still dare to face the terrible risks and costs of such
contact. I myself would not have attempted it..." he trailed off, and
favored Steve with an icy stare. Steve had been a ruthless handler for
over seven years, and a soldier and 'wet-work' field operative for
nine years before that. He still felt a thrill of anxiety at that
stare.
"...but you and your people... INSPIRED me."
Again, stalling for time was called for. "It was nothing personal. I
wasn't even..." Steve began.
"Spare me," Ferreira interrupted. "I know she meant nothing to you.
But I am here to MAKE it personal."
It had been a minor incident midway in Steve's career with the agency.
He doubted he'd even thought of the operation three times since then,
but now he wracked his brain for details. He'd been acting as station
chief in Brazil at the time; he'd assigned one of his operatives
seduce and turn a young secretary at the then-newly-formed ABIN
(Brazil's current intelligence service). They'd been able to intercept
and cut off a mole from an allied country with the information she'd
turned over. There had been no way to hide where the tip had come
from, however, so he'd transferred his agent to another country and
cut the secretary - Julia Ferreira - loose.
"Do you know what happened to her after you monsters played with her
heart? No, you never bothered to check. She fell into despair, still
pining for your snake of an agent. Then she took to drugs, and came
apart quickly. She was killed on the street by her pimp, less than a
year after your little triumph." The bitterness and venom in his voice
confirmed that Ferreira was definitely NOT going to be professional
about this.
He paused for a moment, reflecting, sadness and regret writ large on
his expressive face. "Julia had been very dear to me. I could not have
loved her more had she been my own. When I returned from my travels
she was gone, and my brother, her father, was a broken man."
His attention returned to the present, as he looked up at Steve. "I
swore vengeance that day. It has taken years to prepare, years full of
dark deeds and fearsome bargains. But I gained the power to find those
who had wronged my blood, and give to them my wrath."
"I know you're angry," Steve said, placatingly. "But as I said, I
wasn't personally involved. I never even met..."
Ferreira cut him off. "What is the phrase? 'The buck stops here?' You
approved it, oversaw it. YOU are responsible."
"I'd think you'd be a lot more pissed off at the guy who actually
carried out the..."
Another brusque interruption: "He has already been dealt with. Simply
to get the attention of what are commonly called 'demons' requires...
certain sacrifices." He radiated grim satisfaction. Steve had always
been good at reading people; it was a vital part of his job, and
indeed a survival skill in his profession. Very few people, even pros,
could lie to his face. Ferreira was not a pro; obviously a passionate
man, he wore his heart on his sleeve.
Steve knew now that he wasn't lying. This man really believed what he
was saying. Given what had already happened in the past few minutes,
he couldn't be sure the stranger was actually insane. Of course, if he
weren't, it might be WORSE...
Ferreira was speaking. "I give to you now my curse. You shall know
what Julia knew, feel all she felt. You, too, shall betray your
country for love." He smiled. "And I shall be the instrument of your
downfall. The beings I have bargained with are far beyond the human.
They do not fit in our little categories of 'good' or 'evil', they are
truly incomprehensible. But I have met their price, and they are not
without a sense of humor. Together we determined a punishment exactly
tailored to your crime."
He gestured, and Steve felt a fleeting moment of dizziness; his vision
blurred for an instant, then resharpened. It was almost too short to
recognize. He stood for a few heartbeats, waiting for the other shoe
to drop, but nothing else happened. He exhaled, only then realizing
he'd been holding his breath.
"Fuck, you almost had me..." the rest of the words died in his throat
as he focused on Vinicius. The stranger with the jet-black hair and
fiery eyes suddenly seemed larger, more powerful, more threatening,
more compelling. He wanted to look away, and yet he found himself
staring, fascinated and frightened, as Vinicius laughed out loud. The
sound seemed undefinably different, confusing and absorbing in some
new way...
As Vinicius spoke, Steve was transfixed by stirring overtones in that
deep voice that he had missed before. "You do not even yet realize
your fate. Go, examine yourself. Your manhood." He chuckled again.
Steve turned away slightly, still furtively glancing at the
disturbingly striking intruder. His manhood? What did that... In a
flash, his hand was at the crotch of his trousers. For several seconds
he probed, terror mounting. Something was wrong. WHERE WAS IT? His
hand plunged under his waistband, reaching down. He didn't find what
should have been there... but further down, he found something else,
something his brain refused to process for what seemed a very long
time.
There was a pussy there. He had a PUSSY. The thought floated on the
surface of his mind, unmoored and alien, refusing to sink in. He fled
Vinicius's mocking laughter, racing to the bathroom. He knocked the
door closed and tore his pants down.
Sight did what touch alone could not, driving understanding home.
There in the mirror was a slit between his legs, partly concealed by
his bushy pubic hair... and nothing else. His form seemed otherwise
unchanged; the same clean-shaven, chiseled face, the same toned arms
and legs. But the one difference outweighed the others. He was a man
with a vagina. The world wobbled. He recognized the sensation from
when he'd been shot early in his career... he was going into shock.
After a while - he wasn't sure how long - he tentatively reached down
to feel it. His fingers reported the usual sensations he recognized
from countless sessions with women in the past. But the data coming
directly from his crotch was impossible to integrate, nonsensical at
first.
Vinicius pushed open the door, his cruel amusement unmistakable. Again
Steve was struck by something newly unsettling about his tormentor,
something gripping that further strained his already barely-held
composure. He mustered his courage and barked out, "What the fuck is
going on? What kind of bullshit trick is this?" But he couldn't keep
all the hysteria he felt out of his voice, spoiling the effect.
"It is all real, I assure you. All that and more. As I shall now
demonstrate." He stepped forward and stood behind Steve, so they were
both facing the mirror. He took hold of Steve's face, turning it
forward. Steve saw Vinicius's reflected eyes boring into his own, and
could not look away. Some part of himself wondered why he wasn't even
TRYING to attack Vinicius, but the idea was somehow... impossible. He
could no longer make himself believe he could EVER overpower the
commanding gentleman, even without the protective magic. Vinicius
reached around and began unbuttoning Steve's shirt, unhurried. He
slipped it off and dropped it onto the floor. Then he pulled the t-
shirt up and over Steve's head; he unthinkingly lifted his arms to
help. Resistance never even occurred to him.
Another change was apparent now; his nipples were larger, and the
areolas around them had greatly expanded. It was bizarre seeing those
erect feminine nipples on his hairy, muscled chest. Dread filled him
as Vinicius's hand reached up and approached one. He gasped
involuntarily as his strange tormentor began to gently stroke and
tweak the rapidly-stiffening nubs.
It felt incredible, amazing. He looked at Vinicius in the mirror and
was again captured by those striking, arresting eyes. He could not
even think of looking away, though the contempt he saw in them made
him feel small and helpless. His knees trembled. His breath came
faster now, and when Vinicius pinched a nipple it pushed a low moan
from deep in his throat.
Vinicius's other hand reached around at waist level, its target
unmistakable. A wild mix of terror and anticipation shot through
Steve's heart, which was hammering in his chest. The world slowed to a
crawl as Steve realized what was about to happen... and realized how
powerless he was to prevent it... and realized how darkly exciting he
found it to be so utterly at the mercy of this cruel, powerful man.
Then fingers grazed teasingly across his vulva, and he inhaled
sharply, hissing. He could sense how wet he was, how his newly-
traitorous body ached to be touched there, and much more forcefully.
His hips bucked forward slightly, involuntarily, but he couldn't bring
himself to move more than that. He wondered how he could feel so weak
and so frozen in place at the same time.
A digit glided along his moistened slit and he openly whimpered. He
wished he could push it away but he simply leaned back into the firm
arms of his captor, and allowed himself to be felt up. The well-
lubricated finger slid over his clit and he yelped with pleasure, his
head rocking back and his eyes closing unconsciously. His world
narrowed, centered on the new chasm at his groin. His nipples sent
random sparks of pleasure as he opened his legs as wide as they could
go, limited by the pants around his ankles.
He could hear himself moaning and whining like a bitch in heat, though
he was not truly conscious of anything but the ecstasy being forced on
him, growing exponentially. But then he felt a mustached face rub
against his ear and his eyes snapped open. He saw himself draped
across Vinicius, as his iron hands mercilessly roamed across Steve's
strangely mixed new flesh. He saw himself writhing, excited... WANTON.
The musk of an aroused female filled the air, and the understanding
that it came from HIM somehow added to the excitement. He felt so
naked, so exposed. But most of all, he saw Vinicius watching,
dominating him in every way, making him into his plaything. It was
Vinicius' proud face that triggered his orgasm.
It was far more intense than any he'd had before. It swept him away
utterly, carrying him in wave after irresistible wave until they
receded enough for him to be aware of his surroundings again. He
discovered himself collapsed, panting desperately, bent over the
counter in front of the mirror, legs wobbling, barely managing to
remain upright. His pussy (there could be no denying its reality now)
was still quivering in erratic little spasms, forcing hitching gasps
each time, as the fingers withdrew. They slid around his hips, leaving
a wet trail of his own juices.
He raised his head with effort. Vinicius was there in the mirror,
triumphant, gloating. Steve felt utterly humiliated, conquered.
Before, the few times he'd made a mistake or been outmaneuvered, it
had filled him with rage. Anger would not come, now; only despair, and
- doubly hateful - a strange and confusing acceptance, even
satisfaction.
All these emotions flashed through his mind in a whirl, before
Vinicius' had fully stood up. Steve watched his violator survey his
victim, clearly enjoying the helpless expression he could not suppress
on his face. He felt himself blushing - BLUSHING - but he could not
look away from those enthralling eyes.
Alarm filled him as Vinicius ran a hand down his ass and began
exploring his lips once more, now from behind. "No, please, no
more..." he pleaded, hating the submissive, supplicating tone in his
voice - but unable to sound, or even feel, more assertive.
A stern look from Vinicius and he no longer dared even beg. Firm
digits teased and probed anew; more swiftly than he would have
believed possible - faster than any man could ever recover - he was
groaning uncontrollably. He'd seen women have multiple orgasms before
(or, at least, he was as sure as a man can be that they weren't
faked), but experiencing one was entirely different. His second orgasm
was as devastating as the first. He wasn't able to remain upright this
time, and he fell to the floor on hands and knees.
As he knelt there, panting, he felt the tears come. He hadn't cried
since childhood but everything was racing out of control. He looked up
wildly at Vinicius and was no longer able to deny what was so
upsetting about him - he was GORGEOUS, breathtakingly handsome. Steve
was observing everything about the man in an entirely new light. The
proud, aristocratic features; broad shoulders; strong hands (his new
nether anatomy twitched at the sight, almost yearningly); trim waist
and belly without a hint of paunch; long legs...
He let out a sob, despair mixed with unwanted but undeniable longing.
Vinicius watched him cry for a time, an appreciative grin on his face.
"Now I think you see. At least, a little." His voice sent chills up
Steve's spine. It was beautiful, mesmerizing. SEXY.
"Ate amanha," Vinicius said, mockingly. He walked out of the room
without a backward glance, but Steve's eyes were riveted on his firm,
tight rear. Moments later, he heard the front door open and close.
Steve lay on the cold bathroom floor, weeping quietly, for a long
time.
Eventually he recovered enough self-possession to get up and pull on
his clothes; he didn't look in the mirror. He robotically checked the
house. Everything seemed secure - though he wondered if he'd ever feel
secure again. All that he'd ever believed about reality, about
HIMSELF, seemed to be crumbling. He found his dinner sitting in the
kitchen where he'd left it, a lifetime ago. He sat down heavily on a
stool and began mechanically eating the cold noodles, trying to think.
He'd gone through training to resist many forms of torture. He'd been
in combat several times, and he hadn't cracked then. Sure, he'd been
rattled and off-balance by the gun disappearing and... such, but he
would never have just SURRENDERED like that, not for anything.
Obviously the changes were more than physical.
The physical was bad enough. He didn't need to touch himself to notice
that things were... off. His shirt rubbed his new nipples in an odd
way. Even as he thought about it he could see points rising, visible
under the cloth. And his briefs were disturbingly loose. Just walking
around pointed out a conspicuous absence.
But when he thought about what had happened in the bathroom... the
shock was immediately mixed with a resurgence of excitement, of LUST.
Some new part of him had LIKED it, had FED on the delicious
helplessness. And thoughts of Vinicius himself sparked an even more
chaotic flurry of emotion.
As long as he thought in the abstract... if he thought about SOMEONE
stealing his dick, and toying with his mind, and FINGER-FUCKING him,
he could be properly indignant, even outraged. But if he thought
specifically that Vinicius had done so, his fury collapsed.
Remembering the man's hands, so surely and confidently reducing him to
jelly, caused his skin to flush and his breath to come more rapidly.
He was SCARED to be angry at Vinicius. (Steve finally, absently
noticed that he wasn't using the man's surname anymore, even in his
thoughts.) He was commanding, intimidating, and alluring... and each
fed into the others. He knew that it was wrong, but it didn't FEEL
wrong to be aroused by, and attracted to, his sheer animal power.
Steve finished eating and made his way to the living room, intending
to sit on the couch. Before he'd arrived there he'd changed his mind.
He had to understand his situation, figure out what was going on.
Unknowns were dangerous, and his own body was now a critical unknown.
He went upstairs, closed the blinds, and took off his clothes. There
was a mirror over the dresser.
Aside from the nipples and his crotch, things seemed the same. He was
a bizarre mix - a fit, lean man with women's genitals. He walked about
in a small circle and confirmed a suspicion he'd developed - his gait
had changed slightly, his hips were subtly reconfigured - not wider,
just shaped differently. A quick, experimental snap-kick revealed
unexpected flexibility, it reached inches higher than his previous
limit. He wasn't unusually hairy for a man, but his legs looked
strange beneath that clearly feminine groin.
Reluctantly he examined the... vagina between his legs. The task
proved to be more difficult than he'd anticipated; he ended up laying
on the bed with a hand mirror. Aside from its terrifying location, it
proved to be a disquietingly normal example of the type. Pert,
symmetrical lips; a cute clitoris demurely hiding beneath its hood. A
short distance within there was even what had to be a hymen. He would
have found it attractive, placed in other surroundings.
The attention of his hands, however, was causing it to stir
alarmingly. He bolted off the bed with alacrity and wiped off his
fingers. He moved to the mirror, shifting attention to his nipples.
Again, except for their placement, they were entirely typical out to
the edge of the areolas: at that point his normal chest hair
reappeared. They were by now erect and firm, and sensitive to his
exploratory contact. Somehow they seemed connected to the awakening
flesh below, bestirring his arousal further.
It felt SO good. In his imagination, Vinicius' magnetic eyes watched
him as one hand descended and began to rub his new lips and clit. His
back arched, almost involuntarily. He began to picture himself putting
on a show, displaying his submission, affirming what Vinicius had made
of him... his toy, his pet, his... his SLUT. Steve's sighs waxed into
moans and then shrieks as he came again, almost as violently as
before.
As the pleasure faded he came to a sick realization of how thoroughly
the hooks had sunk into his very being. Gathering the scraps of his
willpower, he pulled his hands away from his still-eager, throbbing
flesh and fought to calm down. It took time, much time, but eventually
he'd restored some sense of equilibrium.
As noted, Steve was not one for surrendering. He assailed the problem
from many angles as the evening wore on, but it was like there were
now trapdoors scattered across his mind. Considering certain aspects
or specifics of his situation would drop him down a slippery ramp
toward shuddering lust, and only immediate and frantic effort would
keep him from entertaining dangerous fantasies... and succumbing to
them. His pussy's appetite and aptitude for pleasure displayed no
apparent limits as the night wore on. It took a firm and careful rein
on his own thoughts, consideration of the issues only in the most
general terms, to retain his self-control.
He went to bed, very late, demoralized and without even a vague idea
how he could proceed. Even that was disquieting; normally he slept
naked, but he found that he needed a shirt to protect his... chest
from unwanted stimulation. He feared what tomorrow would bring... but
the despised new parts of his psyche felt a cloudy anticipation, too.
Steve woke at the sound of his alarm and sat up. There was no
confusion about his circumstances; it had been a restless, fitful
night, and from the few snippets he could recall it was perhaps a
mercy that he didn't clearly remember his dreams. But the bed was wet
where his crotch had lain.
He showered, briefly and unthinkingly; he could not risk devoting too
much attention to his altered body... but he also couldn't go to work
smelling like he did. He pondered calling in sick but he didn't want
to stay home where it was clear he could be easily gotten to. He chose
a stiff, thick shirt, hoping it would hide the nubs on his chest if
they awoke. The rest of his morning ritual was comforting in a way,
but tension underlaid the whole proceedings. He wrestled with the
decision he had to make all along his drive to work. Presenting his
credentials as usual, he was admitted to the secured areas and he sat
down to go over his morning briefings and case reports.
In the end, he couldn't do it. He came close, several times, to
alerting his boss that he'd been compromised. But he never quite made
it to Edwards' office. It wasn't just that it was career suicide; he
had a strong sense of duty and patriotism, and was willing to put that
over his own ambitions... if only barely. But acknowledging what had
happened... exposing his complete humiliation to others... it was just
too much. Telling his superiors that he'd been magically castrated -
telling ANYONE - well, no man could face that without pause. He'd be
probed, studied, examined. Treated like a lab animal. And snickered
at...
Work, too, was reassuring. He was incredibly relieved to confirm that
he wasn't looking at other men in a sexual way. Thoughts of Vinicius'
appearance had to be quickly stifled for the shivers they brought, but
his co-workers were just other guys. Just as happily, he still found
women attractive... though if he went too far in that vein, he started
to feel his fantasies and desires warp in unfamiliar directions.
Still, he could function on a business level. In many ways his day
went entirely normally.
But he felt like an imposter going into the men's room, walking past
the urinals and sitting at a toilet to pee. Wiping was emotionally but
not physically excruciating.
He took a chance and did some digging on Vinicius, striving to adopt a
mindset of abstract research, though it was hard to maintain; his
interest was more than academic, after all. Still, there was little to
discover; mostly travel records. He'd apparently never attracted much
official attention. A Brazilian citizen from a well-off family.
Studied anthropology and history abroad in several countries. Well-
traveled since then, too - he'd been on every continent, including
Antarctica. It wasn't clear where his money came from, but Steve
didn't dare initiate a more thorough search that might be noticed. No
known ties to any organizations of interest.
He stayed later than usual, putting off the inevitable. Deviating from
routine too much might draw attention from the internal agency
watchdogs, however, which he could not afford in his current
predicament. He ate dinner out, dread and excitement mounting
simultaneously. When he pulled into his garage, his stomach was
churning with the volatile mix of desire and fear. He was mentally
rehearsing what he'd say and how he'd react if Vinicius was there...
but he had little confidence that he'd actually be able to follow
through.
He entered the kitchen gingerly, and when he saw that the living room
was dark he was pierced to the heart with relief... and
disappointment. He recognized that he was psyching himself out, but
the rigid grasp he'd always kept on his emotions was getting rather
frayed.
A quick tour showed that the ground floor was as he'd left it. He felt
more reassured still as he went up the stairs and saw that the lights
were off. Again, a survey cleared the area. He stood in the bedroom,
glad to be spared a confrontation... or mostly glad, at least.
He almost screamed when the voice came from behind. "Good evening, Mr.
Harper." Displaying the reflexes he'd been complimented on last night,
he whirled around in a flash.
Vinicius sat in the chair in the corner, casual and relaxed. Once
again Steve was transfixed by the man's handsome appearance, even as
his mind frantically tried to account for his sudden presence. The
Brazilian had NOT been there when he'd swept the room seconds ago.
"You... I don't... Please, leave me alone..." It was hard to talk, to
think; he just wanted to drink in that amazing face, that lean body.
He knew that he should be shouting, cursing, but he suddenly felt so
confused. All of the strong words he'd planned had dissolved,
vanished. His nipples were perking up, so hard and sharp that his
shirt couldn't conceal them. It was embarrassing, but part of him
WANTED Vinicius to know how turned on he was becoming.
"Hush." At the word Steve's feeble protests ended and he fell silent,
abashed. "I promised I would come today, and I am, as they say, a man
of my word." The white, even teeth flashed by his grin were
captivating. "Are you truly so sad to see me?"
Given leave to speak, he cried "Yes!", his voice breaking. He
remembered the root of the term 'hysteria' and almost despaired.
"You... changed me... attacked me..." He could feel himself flushing,
LUBRICATING, at the images in his mind.
A mock frown wrinkled his brow. "Indeed? I don't recall spirited
opposition." He almost leered then, but somehow even that was...
SOPHISTICATED, coming from him. "It must have been terrible."
The warmth he felt on his face... he must be bright red. "I didn't...
You... I wouldn't have..." He didn't know what to do with his hands.
"What did I do that was so upsetting?"
"You... touched me, held me... felt me..."
"That doesn't sound so fearsome." The feigned puzzlement gave way to a
serious expression. "Show me. What did I do that offended you so?"
"Please, don't make me..."
"Show me," he ordered, in a tone like steel.
Steve collapsed inside. He could not stand up to Vinicius, he was like
a physical force. Where had his willpower gone? Yesterday he had been
a cold-blooded killer. Now he was timid and bashful... and his blood
was anything but cold.
With trembling fingers he reached up to his chest and pinched his
nipples through the shirt. "First, you squeezed my... my chest..."
Sternly: "No."
It took him a second. He quailed within, but he felt his still-alien
clitoris swell when he understood what Vinicius meant. The holster
slipped off and was cast away; slowly, he began to unbutton his shirt.
"You... you took off my shirt, like this." It fell to the floor.
"And then?"
He looked away shyly. "You took off my undershirt." Slowly he pulled
it over his head and dropped it softly to the ground.
"Did I? What did I do after that?"
"You squeezed my nipples." He began to play with the strange, stiff
nubs on his chest, marveling at the sensations they evoked. It was
like an erection, but more concentrated, and there were two of them,
and they seemed to be connected to EVERYWHERE. His pussy was flushed,
straining...
Vinicius allowed this to go on for some time. Steve was moaning
softly; he'd never made much noise during sex before, but the feelings
swamping him demanded expression. Eventually, his audience queried,
"You find this unpleasant, then?"
Lying was out of the question. "No," he whispered.
"What was that?"
Compelled, he spoke in a loud, husky voice. "No."
"How does it feel?"
The delay was brief, barely perceptible. "Good, oh God, so good," he
panted. "I LIKE it." Why had he added that? It was true, but it felt
so... NAUGHTY to admit it.
Vinicius' frown had returned. "We must explore further, then, and find
what upset you so." He seemed so casual, and yet Steve couldn't
imagine refusing him. "What happened next?"
"You... you touched me. Down there."
"Where?" Like a schoolteacher, eliciting the proper answer.
"On my... my PUSSY." Oh, God, why did it feel so good to say it?
"How could I?" The accent was so charming... "You are still wearing
pants."
He was suffused with embarrassment; he hadn't been reenacting things
properly... and then, as he became aware of that thought, he was
embarrassed by how thoroughly involved he'd become in Vinicius' game.
But it couldn't shake him loose of the control; indeed, his breath
came faster as he began to unbuckle his belt. "I'm sorry, sir." The
honorific just slipped out, naturally, without a conscious decision.
He kicked off his shoes, one by one, and eased the pants down; slowly,
flirtatiously. He realized he was doing a STRIPTEASE for the man who'd
stolen his maleness. Where resentment, where RAGE should have been,
there was only shame... and a growing, dazed wonder at how erotic it
all was.
He stepped out of the pants and turned slightly as he began to slide
off his briefs, gradually. It was indescribably exciting, so sexy. His
reservations meant nothing anymore, they hardly registered; he was in
another world now, where other rules applied. The only anxiety he felt
was fear that Vinicius wouldn't find him attractive.
His audience simply regarded him, infinitely superior, a lord
surveying a peasant. Steve kicked the briefs away with a flair and ran
a hand down his belly toward his...his snatch, his twat. It was on
fire, HE was on fire. It didn't feel alien now; it was too powerful,
too deeply rooted to be anything but part of his being.
He fell to his knees, legs spread. He plumbed the strange and
wonderful new convolutions of his crotch, feeling the delicious
slippery friction, hearing the slurping wetness, smelling his own new
musk. All for Vinicius, who had ignited this glorious conflagration
within him. He gave voice to passionate moans and whines; he had no
control, it was was if his pussy was crying out directly.
It was so much like his fantasy of the night before that he wondered
if Vinicius could read his mind. As he raised his head and gazed into
those oh-so-compelling eyes, he felt as if they were peering into his
very soul, that every secret within him was laid bare before this
irresistible presence. He felt tiny and humble... and unbelievably
hot.
A hint of a smile on that face; he knew, he MUST know. "Oh, oh God, oh
please, oh my Gooood!" Again his climax was intense and cataclysmic
and unmanned him, completely and literally.
As a man an orgasm had been a final thing; once he had come, arousal
dropped precipitously, and didn't return for a time. His new parts
didn't have that limitation; arousal receded somewhat, but came
nowhere near zero. He was still hungry, STARVING for more.
It was enough for him to remember how degrading this all was,
though... or at least, how degrading it should have felt. There was
barely a flicker of resentment, however. He was ashamed... but eager.
Vinicius was smiling broadly. "That didn't appear so upsetting. Tell
me, how do you feel?"
He didn't even WANT to lie. "Hot," he panted. "Sexy."
"You enjoyed that, did you?"
"Yes," he admitted coquettishly. He was FLIRTING!
"Do you wish me to leave now?"
"No!" he anxiously and unthinkingly exclaimed.
"Well, then, I appear to have done you a favor. It is only right that
you repay my kindness," Vinicius admonished sternly.
Steve suffered a thrill of terror. He thought he knew where this was
headed, but he realized that he was too worked up, too far gone, to
refuse Vinicius now. He'd do practically ANYTHING... and understanding
that, he felt himself become even wetter.
The man stood up from his chair. "Come, approach me."
Steve began to stand, but the words came sharply. "On your KNEES."
He crawled forward, face burning, but whimpering with lust. To Steve,
Vinicius looked... magnificent from down on the floor. His submission
was total. He reached Vinicius' feet and stopped, trembling. Unbidden,
he bowed his head. He could feel juices running into his pubic hair,
onto his belly...
The moment stretched... and then he called down. "Remove my shoes."
He reached forward. "Yes..."
Viciously: "Yes, WHAT?" Steve paused. It was appalling how little
resistance he could mount, how the words were squeezed out of him.
"Yes, Master." He shivered. The cool air running over his naked skin,
perking his nipples... it did nothing, he was still so HOT...
The shoes came off, one by one. The pungent smell should have been
off-putting... but it was arousing instead. It was his Master's smell.
"Now, the pants."
He reached up, fumbling for a moment, unhooking the belt, pulling it
free. His hands grew surer. The pants had a single button, easily
undone. The sound of the zipper descending made him shiver again. He
WANTED this. It didn't feel like the desires were being imposed from
without. It was like he was awakening to parts of himself that had
always been there, latent, waiting for the proper time to stir and
bloom. It felt natural, right, and wonderful.
He pulled the pants down. Vinicius wore boxers. That struck Steve as
more manly than briefs... and that was somehow more sexy. He was
gratified to see that, despite Vinicius' affected detachment, he was
sporting a prominent erection, stretching the sleek fabric. Steve
wanted desperately to please him.
There was something else he wanted desperately, too. He leaned forward
and took hold of the boxers with his teeth. The smell was
intoxicating, the feel of the smooth cloth against his cheek was
delicious. It had to be real silk. Slowly he descended, slipping the
undergarment to Vinicius' ankles to join the pants. He sat up again
and regarded his Master's cock.
Intellectually, he knew he should have been disgusted, repulsed; that
awareness was purely abstract, however. In reality, it was concretely
fascinating. It was somehow more immediate, more impressive, more REAL
than any he'd seen before. He'd never inspected any prick so closely
or intently in his life, not even his own. It was... not beautiful,
exactly, but... enticing. Stimulating. Suggestive. It was
uncircumcised and the head glistened slightly, extending out past the
retracted foreskin. Master's pubic hair reminded him of nothing so
much as the mane of a proud lion. The balls hung low in the scrotum,
too masculine for words.
"Touch it." Was Vinicius' voice just a bit throaty, a fraction
strained? Steve hoped so. He needed no further encouragement, and
gently took hold of the member. It felt amazing, strong, powerful. It
might as well have been electrified for the tingling that ranged
through his whole body at the contact. He stroked it gently for a
time, marveling at the feeling, and at his own enthusiasm. Admiring
the naked lower half before him, he wondered what an ENTIRELY
unclothed Vinicius would look like, and hoped to find out soon. He was
ready to do more, much more, but despite his straining anticipation,
he could not dream of proceeding without permission.
Permission was not long in coming. "Suck it," Vinicius instructed.
There was no doubt the voice was husky now, despite the authority in
the inflection. Quickly but deferentially, Steve took the head into
his mouth and began to gently suck and lick. He wracked his brains for
tricks that women had used on him before. Odd, he hadn't thought of
his own erstwhile member until now... it seemed absurd, silly, to miss
it when he had THIS spectacular penis to play with now.
The tastes and smells were delightful, ambrosial. The feel as he took
in more and more was... FULFILLING, in a way he'd never imagined
before. No tongue had ever reached so deeply, had ever stimulated so
many senses at once. Everything simply... fit. CLICKED. He wondered
why he'd never wanted to do this before. It was sexy, and FUN!
He could feel it get harder as he worked, and he heard Master
breathing deeply. He opened his eyes and was presented with a view of
a blowjob he'd never expected to see, but which was profoundly erotic.
He realized he was gasping and moaning himself as he slurped with
unabashed pleasure. He ran his hands up Master's legs and placed his
hands on the ass he found, pulling himself as close as he could,
trying to get that majestic prick as deep in his throat as possible.
Master let out a gasp, and then he began to come.
Steve had heard that some women could orgasm without direct
stimulation, by emotion and fantasy alone. Tasting Vinicius' cum,
feeling his cock pulse in his mouth, knowing that he had succeeded,
drove Steve wild. He drew as much joy from the knowledge that he had
made his Master come as he did from the waves of heat and pleasure
radiating across his body as he wriggled his hips. He greedily
swallowed every last drop, and for the longest time felt nothing but a
glow of satisfaction and perverse pride.
Vinicius, for his part, was silent - apart from heavy breathing - for
almost a minute. He watched mutely as Steve tenderly licked and milked
his wilting penis, ensuring that not a drop of semen spilled. Steve
couldn't tell what he might be thinking. His normal sensitivity was
overwhelmed by his powerful emotions, his ardor to please and to
submit. He took the lack of countermanding orders as tacit permission
to keep kissing and enjoying his Master's delightful cock.
Unexpectedly, without warning, Vinicius shoved him down. Steve, taken
by surprise, fell onto his side. He looked up, shocked. He'd been
trying so hard to make Master happy...
Vinicius glared for a moment, then turned away, reaching down to pull
on his clothes. He didn't look at his victim for what seemed a long
time. Steve simply lay where he had fallen, unsure. Eventually
Vinicius sat back in the chair and regarded him coldly.
The game was over, clearly. Steve was disappointed - he was still very
aroused - and confused. But he was far too intimidated to do more than
collect himself off the floor and wait - kneeling, head bowed - for
Vinicius to say something.
Finally, he spoke. "How does it feel? To be so humiliated? To be a
COCKSUCKER?" The word could have been wickedly sexy, but the tone
robbed it of any pleasure. His voice was spiteful, poisonous. He
glared; hateful, furious. Steve quailed inside.
"Please, I'm sorry, I don't... I didn't mean to..." He felt the tears
welling up in his eyes. He was so frightened; what could he have done
to upset Vinicius so?
"Enough!" his tormentor barked. He was silent a few seconds more, and
then he took a deep breath, letting it out slowly. Having regained his
composure somewhat, he spoke again. His voice was more controlled, but
still cold. "It would appear your reluctance was more feigned than
real."
With his lust dwindling, Steve found himself able to think a bit more
like his usual self. He had recovered a tiny amount of indignation.
"It's magic making me do this. What's YOUR excuse?" He wished he could
sound accusatory instead of merely petulant.
Vinicius smiled indulgently, his good humor apparently restored for
the present. "True, those of us driven to explore the limits of
reality often go beyond conventional strictures in other areas. I
freely admit that my sexual tastes ARE unusual, but the beings I...
'contracted with' care nothing for what humans consider 'normal'. They
took my proclivities into account when crafting my revenge."
He reached forward and ran his fingernails up Steve's chest. The
former man arched into the caress, letting out a soft "mmmmmm," almost
a purr. "I see your own objections are fading," Vinicius teased.
"No!" Steve cried. "I don't want this!" But even as he said that he
could feel his nipples crinkle anew. "What do you WANT from me?" he
cried out, frustrated and confused by the man's whipsawing moods and
his own helpless reactions to them.
Vinicius was positively beaming now as he stroked Steve gently. "I
want exactly what I said. I want you to betray your country. I made
certain contacts when I was searching for particular texts and sites
in China: they were necessary if I wanted to secure permissions for my
journeys there." He smiled vindictively as he pulled on his shoes. "I
care nothing for the affairs of nations, but it will amuse me when you
select the most damaging nuggets of information for me to relay to the
PLA's Second Department."
Steve was horrified. He'd NEVER hand over state secrets! But then,
he'd done so many things in the past few minutes he'd never imagined
doing...
"That is enough for tonight." He stood and nodded his satisfaction at
Steve and the gaping expression on his face. "Adieu, for now." Steve
looked away, but couldn't help listening intently as Vinicius strode
from the room and down the stairs.
For the second time in as many days, Steve wept uncontrollably.
The next morning was much as the previous one had been, only filled
with even more despair. He tried to lose himself in his work during
the day, and mostly succeeded. But leaving his office that night, he
impulsively decided to at least TRY to do something about his
situation. It was Friday; he always kept a small 'escape kit' in the
trunk with cash, a change of clothes, and other useful items. Instead
of going home, he went to a random hotel and checked in. He had dinner
in the hotel restaurant and went back up to his simple twin-bed room.
He was almost surprised that Vinicius wasn't waiting for him. He
ignored the flash of disappointment and sat down at the desk to think.
He forced himself to remember what had happened last night, to
consider everything as dispassionately as he could. He told himself it
was a problem to solve. Steve was very good at puzzles, at finding
answers with incomplete information. At determining the why from the
what. At understanding people's weaknesses...
A few pieces clicked into place, all at once. Vinicius had been
furious immediately after the blowjob. (Steve wrenched his thoughts
from dwelling too fondly on that subject.) He had been enjoying things
up until then... as he should, since the situation was designed to
appeal to his 'proclivities'. Steve had been doing everything to
please him...
It had GOTTEN to Vinicius! He had forgotten his drive for vengeance
for a moment, because of Steve's sincere enthusiasm. Vinicius was not
truly ruthless, not professional. He was sophisticated and
intelligent, but also firey, passionate - he let his emotions get in
the way. Revenge ITSELF was unprofessional. Steve didn't think
Vinicius was instinctively cruel. He had become angry because he had -
if only for a moment - stopped thinking of Steve as a victim and had
thought of him as... not a lover, perhaps, but at least a person.
Vinicius might enjoy DOMINATION during sex, but that was not the same
thing as CRUELTY.
It was an interesting theory. He THOUGHT it held together, but he was
also aware of how little objectivity he possessed regarding the man.
He was OBSESSIVELY attracted to the dashing Latin adventurer. He
WANTED it to be true, he wanted Vinicius to care for him. It also
pointed out, to his agent side, a way that Steve might gain some power
over Vinicius... but only by becoming a more perfect sex slave. He
blushed at how tempting that prospect was.
No further revelations came that night. He ended up watching the cable
news shows for a few hours, half-expecting Vinicius to appear each
time he turned around. (He always kept up on current events; sometimes
the most surprising connections could be made.) Eventually, around
eleven, he decided to sleep on it. He was both relieved and somehow
vaguely saddened that the warlock had been evaded so easily.
Unfortunately, slumber proved difficult to capture. Tossing and
turning in the dark, he finally admitted to himself that he was quite
horny. Here away from home, though, perhaps he would be safe in
exploring himself a little...
His fingers ranged along the unfamiliar geography of his loins. He
tried to distance himself, pretend he was feeling up some woman and
not his own anatomy, but it was no use. The idea just didn't have the
charge it should. He knew what WOULD get him off, and in a
mortifyingly short time he was applying that knowledge.
Picturing Vinicius' face and form brought immediate results. In his
fantasy, Vinicius was there, naked and glorious, running his hands
along skin that ached for his caress. Moisture gathered swiftly
between his lips, and he could feel blood rushing there, swelling his
pussy and making it ready... for HIM, for that gorgeous, irresistible
man.
"Oh, Vinicius... oh please... mmmmm... oh, god..." He could not remain
silent. The tension climbed by degrees. What would it feel like, to
kiss him with that moustache? Would it taste as good as his cock? He
drew forth and pictured every moment of last night's oral service, now
wishing to do it again, all that and more. His nipples were so hard,
his pussy so wet...
"Oh god, oh Master, oh... oh fuck me, please, oh god Vinicius, fuck
me! Oh fuck oooooohhhhhhh!" Picturing that superb prick inside his
eager vagina was the last straw. He screamed, heedless that others in
nearby rooms might hear. His hips bucked as he climaxed triumphantly.
It lasted much longer than any he'd had as a man, fading gradually,
leaving him panting but almost at peace. Perhaps he could actually
sleep now.
"THAT sounded rewarding." The voice was unmistakable, the tone was
playful. For several seconds Steve fumbled clumsily for the light
switch, and finally got it. He and Vinicius blinked at each other,
eyes adjusting. In his dazed state, halfway between excited and
befuddled, Steve wondered if he was dreaming. He was very quickly
coming to not care, however.
Vinicius was nude and semi-erect; he sat casually at the near edge of
the other bed. No discarded clothes presented themselves to Steve's
quick inspection of the room. Part of the reason that inspection was
quick was that he was an experienced operative whose life had depended
on rapidly sizing up a situation. Mostly, however, Steve's eyes were
magnetically drawn to Vinicius' stunning body.
He was, as Steve had already concluded in an entirely different
context, in excellent shape. Not fat-free like a bodybuilder, not
polished and artificial like a model, just... fit, healthy. His body
looked LIVED-IN, with several interesting scars here and there, adding
character like beauty marks. Steve's heart was pounding as he drank in
his shoulders, his chest, his stomach, his legs, his arms...
everything he saw was thoroughly sexy. He'd believed he was wet and
excited before, but he was reaching new peaks in just the few moments
since the light had come on.
He could not speak, he was dumbfounded. The surprise, the embarassment
of being caught masturbating like that, the sudden rush of lust... it
was too much. He could only stare, helpless. Vinicius' lazy smile told
Steve that his confusion was obvious. He realized with some corner of
his mind that he'd instinctively pulled up the sheets to cover his
chest.
"I would apologize for intruding, but it seems I am invited," he
drawled. Steve blushed and looked down, but he could not deny it.
Longing filled his soul. It wasn't fair, him appearing now, when he
was so worked up... Vinicius continued, "Please, don't stop. Now that
the light is on, I'm curious to see."
Steve had thought he'd been mortified earlier... "Yes, Master."
Tentatively yet ineluctably he pushed the covers away, exposing his
nakedness. He'd never been exhibitionistic before, but now the idea of
playing with himself under Master's supervision was irresistably sexy.
Despite himself, he still felt flattered to see Vinicius' erection
rising. He moved, changing position, making sure that Master would
have a good view.
His new hips were indeed more flexible than the old. He was grateful
the changes had been so thorough; his legs would never have been able
to spread so wide before. He snaked a hand down to the exceedingly
moist flesh below while the other gently rubbed and pulled his
nipples. It seemed natural and obvious to pleasure himself that way,
as if he'd always done so.
Having Master watch was indeed electric, exciting. It was unspeakably
hot, being so naughty, and him seeing it all. He was so wet now, so
inflamed, as he moaned deep in his throat, animal, bestial. He WAS an
animal - but tamed, desperate to please his Master. Vinicius' erection
was at full mast now; the image was sexy by itself, but the fact that
he was the reason for it stirred the new blazes within Steve that much
higher. It was like he could FEEL Master's eyes on him.
He was rubbing his clit with his middle and index fingers, hard and
fast; it was smaller than a penis but so CONCENTRATED, purified; it
was for nothing but pleasure and it was VERY good at its job. He
wriggled and writhed, muscles tensing, until at last he looked into
his Master's eyes and release arrived. As ever now, he was
uncontrollably vocal, screaming his ecstasy. It was as if the pleasure
was coming straight from Vinicius' beautiful brown eyes.
As he lay there panting, Vinicius stretched out on the bed and
gestured, beckoning Steve forward. Eagerly he leapt up and settled
over his Master. He knelt on the edge of the bed, to Vinicius' right,
and bent forward, taking the inviting hardness into his mouth and
beginning earnest worship. In seconds he was deep-throating, and idly
reflecting that he'd never enjoyed pubic hair in his face quite so
much. For that matter, the hair on Master's legs was somehow exciting
to touch...
He jerked with surprise when he felt the hand begin probing the folds
of his pussy, but he caught himself quickly and resumed fellatio with
scarcely a pause. As time passed he found it increasingly difficult to
focus, however; his attention kept switching between the delights in
front and behind. It was a wonderful dilemma to have, though; and it
was touching that Master should devote some attention to Steve's
pleasure, too.
Perhaps it was the magic, or Vinicius' skill, but his next orgasm
arrived simultaneously with his Master's. It was a remarkable
experience, climaxing while so many senses were being stimulated at
once. He'd never been religious, but his novel submissive impulses and
emotional state made swallowing cum almost like a communion.
It was in that frame of mind that Steve turned and laid himself next
to a panting Vinicius, wanting nothing more than to be close to him.
Tentatively, timidly, he leaned forward but no rejection was
forthcoming. Kissing him was at least as good as he'd fantasized. The
strong, agressive tongue explored the inside of his mouth, driving him
wild. He reached forward, pulling his Master close, losing himself in
the wonderful intimate contact, the smell and taste and feel. He
groaned and squeezed, needy, surrendering completely to the moment.
Just humping Vinicius' leg, he came one more time. Then they lay next
to each other, Steve running his hand up and down Vinicius' returning
erection. After a time, Vinicius reared up and laid Steve out on his
back, and deliberately parted Steve's legs with his knee. He moved his
prick close to the opening there, and gave a meaningful look in
Steve's eyes.
Steve qualied inside. If Vinicius pushed, even a little, he would
acquiesce. He knew it, and Vinicius knew it - Steve could see it in
his eyes. It scared him how much he WANTED it. He stared at that cock,
and knew it would split him open, take him over. He would ride it to
his ruin, but oh God, it would feel so good...
Some small part of him that was still Steve held back. Somehow he
intuited that THAT, at least, was still his choice... but if he freely
gave himself in that way, it would seal Vinicius' ultimate victory.
He was not willing to concede that defeat... yet. Gazing at that
lordly shaft, however, he was not sure he could hold out forever. He
was seriously wondering if he'd last the night. He wasn't quite able
to say "no"... but he didn't say "yes." Vinicius hovered there a
moment longer, then smiled and laid back down on the bed. "Not
tonight? Well, all in good time." His confidence was frustrating,
maddening... but totally sexy, too.
"Still, what shall we do with this?" he mused, indicating his prick.
Steve, with a mix of relief and regret and returning arousal, rose to
the task and brought his hands forward, intending something different
this time. Somehow he felt guilty about not letting Vinicius fuck him,
and he wanted to try to make it up to him. He began to massage and
stroke the beautiful member, only occasionally using his mouth for
brief licks and kisses. It took time, but Steve was in no hurry. He
watched at close range, with unabashed fascination, as the cum emerged
from the meatus; everything about sex with Vinicius was compelling. By
now he felt no trace of reluctance as he licked up the spilled semen.
They lay together again in the afterglow, still in contact but without
quite the same urgency. Eventually Steve whispered, "I hoped you'd
come." It just slipped out. Part of him was ashamed that he'd admitted
it, ashamed it was true. But there it was.
Vinicius smiled complacently. "And so I did. There is nowhere you can
hide from me." It should have sounded terrible, threatening, but it
was somehow... comforting, and heartwarming, and thrilling all at
once. A new feeling, one he couldn't think of the word for...
Vinicius continued, smiling. "Still, this place is amply suited for an
assignation. I commend your choice." Steve looked away shyly; he knew
he was being teased, and he'd never liked that before, but from
Vinicius it was cute.
"How do you do that? How did you get in here?" He wanted to deflect
conversation from himself, both in defense of what little self-respect
he maintained and out of curiosity about Vinicius - professional and
personal.
"With the power I have purchased, it was trivial." A bit of Latin
machismo showed, then, as he hastened to add, "Not that I haven't made
my way into some difficult places on my own, of course."
"Like where?" Steve asked coyly, his turn to tease a little.
"Well, I do recall a wealthy collector who was churlishly unwilling to
grant access to certain stone tablets..."
Fortunately, the Brazilian seemed to be in a talkative mood. Steve was
glad, partly for the gratification of his curiosity... but more
importantly, he never wanted him to leave, he wanted only to lay next
to this amazing man and bask in his presence. Steve had been a good
interrogator once, and he applied that skill adeptly to keep Vinicius
rambling. He was a charming storyteller, full of anecdotes and tales
from his many and varied adventures.
"...so I worked my way around behind them until I was literally a foot
behind their mounts."
"But what did you do? You didn't have a gun or anything!" He felt like
one of the adoring girls in Indiana Jones' classes. But then, the word
'dreamy' applied to Vinicius on so many levels...
"It was no trouble. I shouted and struck both horses on their flanks.
The beasts startled, threw their riders, and galloped off. Once I'd
snatched their rifles away they were much more polite."
Steve listened, entranced, until it was quite late. When Vinicius
discreetly yawned, Steve immediately moved to lay him back and make
him comfortable. The bed should have felt crowded but Steve relished
the closeness as they drifted off to sleep.
Waking the next morning, Steve was confused for a moment. It was the
first time he'd slept so deeply since Vinicius had appeared in his
life. The man was gone. He knew what had happened last night should
have bothered him deeply, and yet he could not but remember it with
fondness.
His incongruous happiness did not fade for quite a while. He showered
and packed, then went down to the restaurant for a hearty breakfast.
It was only when he arrived at home that his normal personality
managed to start reasserting itself.
It was a bit like waking from a dream. Actions and circumstances that
had seemed perfectly reasonable and rational were suddenly, obviously
bizarre. He had been an exhibitionistic cocksucker and had drawn
nothing but pleasure from it! His previous contentment melted into a
queasy horror.
He needed to clear his head, to feel like a MAN again. His first
attempt failed badly, however. He didn't make it to the end of the
street before turning his motorcycle around and fleeing back to his
garage. His new anatomy responded very differently to the thrumming
bike between his legs.
Instead he got in his car, drove to the firing range, and ran a couple
hundred rounds through his pistol. Cleaning the gun afterward at his
kitchen table was familiar and reassuring. Then, he went down to his
basement and got his old free weights out of storage (he knew he
wasn't going to be using the agency gym for a while). He fired up the
'workout' playlist on his iPod and wore himself out exercising to the
metal and grunge. He went for a jog as the sun set.
By the time he returned home, he was feeling more like himself than he
had in days. The whole situation was just a problem to work out. He'd
been in tough scrapes before and pulled through, he'd managed to
salvage some botched operations when others would have given up.
Admittedly, this was a VERY tough problem, but there was always a way.
All these thoughts were running through his mind as he walked in
through his front door. They all vanished instantly as he caught sight
of the flowers in the living room.
He scampered over at once to see. A dozen long-stemmed red roses in a
beautiful crystal vase. Leaning against the base was a small envelope.
He opened it excitedly and found a brief handwitten note:
I enjoyed last night very much. Thank you, V.
The script was elegant and sophisticated, as he'd known it would be.
He felt the goofy grin spreading across his face and didn't care in
the slightest. It was so sweet of Vinicius to do this! Last night had
been wonderful indeed; not just the sex - though that alone had been
mind-blowing. It was laying in bed afterward with him, talking; the
cuddling, the intimacy...
The intelligence analyst inside him finally made a another connection,
one he should have made days ago. He wasn't just reacting to Vinicius
like a girl, physically and emotionally. He was reacting like a
specific TYPE of girl; a young woman, shy and perhaps who'd been a
little sheltered, but with a flowering sexual curiosity and a romantic
streak. Such women were prime candidates for subversion in the proper
circumstances. Julia had been one...
He tried several times that evening to throw the flowers away, but
every time he got near them, he fell under their spell anew. No matter
how strong his initial resolve, he'd end up admiring the blooms, and
smelling them, and thinking how thoughtful and endearing it was of
Vinicius to bring them. He couldn't bear the thought of parting with
them! Each time he'd find himself deciding to dry and preserve the
roses once they started to wilt.
He started avoiding the living room, and sat in his bed upstairs,
despondent and fearful of every noise in the house... and at the same
time eager, avid. His earlier confidence was gone.
He awoke, bleary and not at all rested, early the next morning. It
took a few moments for him to realize that he had not been visited -
at least in person - at all the day before. He tried to ignore the
part of him that was unhappy about that and worried about what it
might mean all through breakfast. He came to no conclusions, however.
He just didn't have enough data.
He noted, not without significant distress, that his psychological
changes were ongoing. Any time he thought of Vinicius, or got even a
little bit horny, he turned into a giddy, swooning teenage girl. He
was falling in LOVE with him! In truth Vinicius was a remarkable, even
admirable,
