"Do you want a pair of shorts, Tommy?" he asked. Almost jumping around in his excitement, his genitals swelling slightly, the youth responded, "I want what you want, Master. If it be your wish, I will gladly remain naked as do the other slaves. It's warm. I'm comfortable and proud that I'm the slave of such a Master." Shaking his head, Eli surrendered to the force that couldn't be resisted and moved towards the driver's door. Noticing that the lad continued to stand at attention by the car trunk, he asked if anything were wrong. "No, Master," Tommy responded. "It's just that I was told that slaves generally travel in the trunks of cars when they are not being transported in vans. Do you wish me to travel somewhere else, Master?" Noticing that Eli was pointing directly at the front passenger door, the boy grinned, leapt excitedly into the automobile, and was soon headed towards his new life. (Continuing Our Story - The Call of the Big Mac) As they drove out of the Port District and into the City Center, Tommy's head appeared to be on a swivel. Everything was of interest. Had he not been trying...with all of his power...to maintain the demeanor of a proper slave, he would have been bouncing around in the seat like a ping-pong ball! "Not quite eighteen and, one suspects, rather naive," Eli thought, "but, oh, so delightful." Suddenly, the boy spotted the Golden Arches ahead on the right. Gasping, his valiant battle for self-control flew out the window! The words "May this slave ask a question, Master?" forced their way from his clenched teeth. "I think you just did, slave, but yes, proceed," replied the Master, enjoying the game as only an American could. "Sire, I am somewhat weaker than I had thought. Perhaps, it is because I haven't been eating as well at the Center as I promised you I would. For that I apologize. Still, is it at all possible that we might stop..." (Pause.) In a worried tone, he added, "...if they have Big Macs in this country?" Glancing over at him, Reynolds could see that he was literally drooling! Oh, well, after all he had been through, that was surely understandable. "Yes, slave, though it will cost you HOURS of extra work to pay for that collection of fat and carbohydrates! Do you understand?" The boy was so overcome that his hand came down squarely on the good doctor's thigh as he simultaneously went hard as a rock! "Spectacular!" his new owner thought. "He's not only thick, but he's a grower! Damn! That's one hunk of meat!" (Reynolds quickly got off that track when his mind asked him sarcastically if he were a "closet queer".) Not able to resist another quick glance in Tommy's direction, Reynolds could see that he had turned beet red. "Nice one," chortled Eli. "Let's get you some food before you die - or explode!" His eyes glued on the small building as they turned off the boulevard and into the parking lot, Tommy softly whispered, "Yes-s-s-s-s-s...followed by a hasty, "Thank you, Master!" Setting the parking brake, Eli gently suggested that his charge relax...and recover. "Would you like to don a pair of shorts?" he asked kindly. The youth's breathing told the doctor that he was gradually deflating, as well as regaining his composure after a serious "Big Mac Attack." After a few moments, a somewhat embarrassed teen turned to the good doctor. "Sorry, Master, that was pretty childish. If it's all the same to you, I think I'll pass on the shorts. Look. I see five, no six, slaves. Every one of them is naked. I can handle being a slave...as long as it's with you and I can be a really top one. To tell the truth, I think I might want to be your slave even if we were back home!" Hastily, he changed direction and added, "Let's play it by the rules, ok?" "Ok, Tommy, out with you," the doctor said quietly, ruffling the boy's hair and pushing him out of the car. In truth, the stop at the Golden Arches was rather uneventful. Two of the slaves and several foreigners ogled him unmercifully. They didn't speak, but their eyes and their lips said it all. When Tommy saw his tray that held two Big Macs, a large French Fries, a vanilla milkshake, and an apple pie, however, he paid little further attention to his surroundings. It wasn't too long before a very grateful - and a very satisfied - young man was back on the road with his mentor. (Settling In) After passing the University Hospital, they soon entered a gated community of substantial homes and pulled into the driveway of an impressive town house. Gathering his Master's attache case and a small, dirty sack containing his few personal possessions, Tommy trudged up the stairs and followed Dr. Reynolds into the house. He looked around approvingly, but, remembering his lessons at the Center, said nothing. "Well, what do you think, Big Mac?" Grinning and affectionately playing with the boy's earlobe, Eli finally asked, "Will this do as your home?" The youngster smiled and whispered something unintelligible. "Ok, Tommy," Eli continued, "you're free to wander around while I get a shower. Then I'll show you more of the place." Heading up the stairs, he wasn't aware that the boy was following him closely. Completely caught up in his thoughts, he walked into his bedroom and began stripping. He didn't really snap out of it until he heard the shower water splashing in his bathroom. Hurrying into the adjoining room, he started in surprise as he saw Tommy standing by the open door to the shower. "You didn't have to do that, Big Stuff," he grunted. "It's my pleasure, sir," the boy responded. "I owe you so much! Come... The water's hot." Tweaking the youngster's nose, Eli moved into the shower - again unaware that Tommy was still right behind him. Actually, It was only when he felt the boy's hands on his back, rubbing it with soap and allowing the spray to wash away the suds, that he started with surprise. Instinctively, he moaned and raised his arms. Oh, God, the kid was lightly massaging his muscles as he washed them. So good...so good... He stiffened slightly as Tommy's fingers dug into his glutes and again when he worked soap deep into his crack, but finally he simply relaxed and let the continuing waves of sensation wash over him. In due course, the boy moved on to work his thighs and calves. He again snapped out of his daydreams when the realized that the youngster had worked his way around to the front of his body and was quietly washing his torso. Seemingly only a moment later, he looked down and found the boy holding his soapy genitals in the palms of both hands and softly manipulating them. "You are so beautiful," Tommy moaned as he slowly slipped to his knees. He was hard erect; his mouth, wide open. Though nearly mesmerized by the sharp spray of the water, the steam, the heat, and the youthful beauty of the lad kneeling expectantly at his feet, Reynolds managed to bend down and get his hands under the arm pits of the muscular lad. Lifting him to his feet, he embraced the boy and whispered, "You ok, Tiger?" "Yes, sir. Sorry..." he said rapidly, recovering his poise quickly. "I guess I was just a little more played out than I thought I was. Real dizzy... I'll be ok in just a minute." Holding onto Tommy with one muscular arm, Eli managed to turn the water off, open the shower door, and help him out onto the tile floor. Sitting on the throne, he gently dried the boy who stood rather unsteadily in front of him. When most of the water was gone, he picked the boy up in his arms and carried him into his bedroom. Pulling the bedcovers back with a jerk, he lay the lad down and climbed in behind him. For a brief moment, knowing that he had to do his duty and rouse himself, Tommy slightly resisted the heavy arm that was resting across his back. Just as he sensed that his damp hair, neck, and muscular shoulders were being lightly kissed, however, everything went dark. The boy awoke somewhat later...alone...aware that much of the daylight was gone. He looked across the dimly lit room to see Eli standing at a curtained window...nude... looking down at the street. He sensed rejection. Too far...too fast... Would he never learn? Somewhat noisily he tumbled out of bed. From his knees he called out: "Master, I am so very sorry. Will you forgive your slave? Everything that I am is in debt to you. I shall endeavor to do better...to be stronger." "There is nothing to forgive, Tommy. I, too, had an 'off moment'. Go on downstairs and find yourself a soft drink in the fridge," Eli responded. "I'll be down in a few minutes and show you around the house." His heart breaking, the boy scurried out of the room and down the stairs. In the darkened kitchen, he sat on the floor, his back against the wall, clutching his Coke. He stood when Eli came downstairs and turned on the light. Following a brief tour, his Master fixed him a nice sandwich. While he was eating, Eli went back into his office and sat at the word processor. Tommy could see that he checked his e-mail and, apparently, even tried to work on a manuscript. Finally, appearing to be frustrated, he went into the den, turned on the TV, and slumped down on a long couch. After a while, the boy asked him if he would like something to drink, but the man waved him away. As he had been instructed at the slave center, he knelt quietly on the floor out of the way until he heard Eli's voice, calling him. In accord with Eli's gestures, he lay down on the couch, his head in his Master's lap. As the evening progressed, his Master's fingers occasionally toyed with his hair, stroked his shoulders and back, and even reached down to touch the heavy balls that were visible between his legs. He said nothing beyond mouthing a few grunts. Finally, he stood and said that he was going to bed. The boy could stay up as long as he wished and, after turning off all lights and appliances, might sleep wherever he desired. It had been a long day, a day that had been...trying for both of them. In the morning, he would ask the boy to prepare coffee and after breakfast, give him further instructions. Saying good night, he strode up the stairs. "Why was it that the Master had resisted his sexual overtures?" the disconsolate boy asked himself. "They were but gestures of love and respect." Suddenly awakening, Tommy was simultaneously aware of the first signs of dawn showing through the window, of movement in the Master's bed, and of his shivering. During the night, he had obviously thrown off the thin robe with which he had covered himself. Then he heard light coughing and suddenly felt heavy pressure on two parts of his body, the small of his back and the back of a thigh. With a wild curse, a naked figure pitched off the bed and crashed onto the floor near him. Emitting a shrill keening wail, the boy backed off, pressing hard into the side of the bed. "You!" the voice snapped. "Stay right here until I return!" Scrambling to his feet, the figure did a fast limp into the next room, slamming the door behind him. Within a very short time, the man returned and knelt beside him. "You slept here on the floor all night?" Eli asked. "Yes, Master," the boy replied, fear creeping into his voice. "Why?" his Master almost barked. "I wanted to be as close to you as you would allow, sire" the boy whispered, tears beginning to make their way down his cheeks. Without uttering another word, Eli leapt back into bed, lifted the covers on the boy's side, and grunted, "In!" Feeling the warmth of the man's heavy arm holding him close and lips upon the back of his neck, Tommy fell back to sleep almost as quickly as he had awakened. Morning light filled the room when Tommy awoke a second time...warm, secure, feeling Eli's morning hard-on pushing against his buttocks. Snickering, he wiggled his hips until the erection began to push into his crack. "You gotta be awake, Big Stuff!" Eli chortled. "Yeah," giggled the boy, turning over, laying his head against his Master's chest, and pressing close as he felt pure joy spreading throughout his body. He had so many ideas that he waned to try out! "Slow it down," his mind counseled. "Anyone can make a mistake. Just don't make the same mistake twice!" His Master's gentle voice continued. "Let's go downstairs and get some breakfast. Then we can talk. Before we do, however, can we agree that yesterday just didn't work out like either of us hoped it would, but we're just going to start over? I think both of us were just too tired...too keyed up. No fault either way, ok?" "Yeppers," Tommy repeated, "No fault either way." With that he hugged Eli as hard as his young muscled arms would allow and jumped out of bed into the relatively cool air. "Yikes!" he squeaked and headed quickly for the bathroom. The remainder of the day went well. The boy came to know the town house and its contents like the back of his hand. (He also knew that there was a country home out at the shore and had been promised a weekend on the beach in the near future.) Tommy had let it be known that he wanted to continue with his exercises and delighted in the suggestion that an extra room be turned into a gym. Phone calls assured them that a few necessary changes and equipment would be available within the week. Another phone call established that the instructor at the slave center would be made available to him, at home, as soon as the gym had been completed. During the early afternoon, Dr. Reynolds announced that he had to stop by his office. The Assistant Chair could not long handle all the extra duties that had been coming his way since the boy arrived. Tommy was on his best behavior. Although he fervently hoped the good doctor would invite him to accompany him, he remained silent until Eli looked inquiringly in his direction. (Then there was an enthusiastic teenaged reaction!) Following a quick shower, the boy was again riding beside his hero back in the direction of the hospital. For his part, Eli saw no need to delay introducing the young man to his immediate staff. He realized that word would have gotten around that the Sheikh had given him the gift of a young, attractive slave who was now ensconced in his home. Behaving "normally" would go far to minimize unwanted gossip, although in a university setting he realized fully that it could never be completely eliminated. Fortunately, he wasn't worried about the question of nudity, for the boy was his protege, and slaves were always present throughout the institution. Indeed, many (if not most) of the hospital's functions could not be continued without them! Dr. Reynolds needn't have worried about anything! Tommy absolutely charmed the socks off of everyone he met - from colleagues, to interns and other professional staff, to secretaries, to the few students whom they came across, to custodians. Obviously, Reynolds thought, the boy must be completely comfortable in formal adult settings. Haley Mills, the Assistant Chair, actually took him aside, stood close, and gasped, "For God's sake, Eli, I've been in countless museums throughout the world, I'm given to the statuary of every age, and I KNOW I've never seen anything as beautiful as THAT! The Sheikh has honored you in a very special way." Reynolds smiled, agreeing that the honor was a wondrous surprise. He went no further, for Doctor Mills could be just a little fey and it just didn't do to give him much of an opening. A personable young intern and one of the most comely secretaries volunteered to give the boy short tours of the hospital while the Chief caught up on some of his work. Evidently, it was a most successful afternoon - or so it seemed from the lad's galloping comments on the way home. According to him, absolutely no one had treated him like a "thing." (After the way he had been treated in the slave center during his first stay, he found that almost unbelievable. ("Why did he have to remember THAT?" the physician thought. Reynolds did suggest that he consider WHOSE slave he was, which brought a wry grin to the youth's lips.) He was also taken with the fact that no citizen of the Sheikhdom went without the finest medical care available. We could learn something from these people, the lad mused. His parents had been of the "lower upper" class, and he had relatives who had been less well treated in both public and private hospitals in the States. "Did you enjoy a little close contact in the record vaults?" the good doctor grinned. "Oh, yeah!" replied Tommy, his golden hair blowing in the open convertible, though you might be surprised with whom!" "I doubt that," replied his mentor with a downright lecherous leer. "I doubt that strongly." When he had stopped laughing, Tommy added that "this nudity thing" wasn't ALL bad. "Yeah!" Reynolds responded, glorying in the warmth of the lad's body as he lightly stroked his muscled thigh. The early dinner at a Thai restaurant rather cleared out Tommy's sinuses, but he was still in great form by the time they returned to the town house. As the boy handed the Master a cup of fine Turkish coffee, he commented that he had done some "erotic dancing" in his "former life" and wondered if his Master would enjoy a little entertainment. What followed was probably the most erotic event in Reynolds' experience. The young man drove him mad as he worked his way in and out of a scrap of white cloth borrowed from the kitchen; he showed off his muscles in a series of martial arts moves; his body expressed the gamut of movements and expressions experienced in sex; he artistically brought himself to a crashing orgasm that spewed cum in every direction. At its close, Reynolds tore off his clothes and danced in the nude with Tommy for the better part of two hours. When they finished, Eli held the boy tightly in his arms, sniffing and licking his body until the lad came again...spontaneously. What an evening! Tommy had learned that morning that he had a "bedroom of record" or "official bedroom" that was his to do as he pleased. The youth's mentor left no doubt, however, as to where he hoped he slept! When it was time for bed this second night, for instance, Eli simply lifted the boy onto his shoulders and carried him upstairs in a fireman's carry. The unique youngster never slept anywhere else - even though he and his hero did not make love for two more months. To Be Continued
