~Chapter 3: Culture Shock Part 1~
Sanctuary of Eros
Saturday Noon.
Ness woke up as the first few rays of sunshine crept across his face, the angelic sight of Noah peacefully sleeping next to him the first thing he saw when he woke up.
The tender feeling of his best friend's smooth skin reminded him that it hadn't been just a dream, everything that happened the day before; the choir, the school, his biological father, and... It all came back to Ness instantly, last night's introductions had left him so exhausted that both Eros and Noah had decided to leave him for the night, so he could rest.
***
Eros and Noah left to let the boy sleep, but after having such an eventful day, he felt too restless to sleep; so instead of doing that, he decided to explore his new surroundings.
Still feeling uneasy, Ness wrapped himself in red silk and wandered around the room; the scale of the room was rather big, about double than any house he had ever been to, perhaps a little less, the floor was a beautifully tiled mosaic in intricate geometric patterns. In and of itself, the room was easily three times as big as the one he shared with his cousin Noel back in Cambridge.
He soon discovered that he had a private and very modern (but no less luxurious) bathroom. There was a beautiful massive marble tub that had brass columns in the shape of beautiful naked boys on all corners who smiled without a hint of shame as they showed the world everything they had. Ness immediately blushed at the sight of the statues, they were so perfectly done that it was easy to forget they were, in fact, made of metal and not flesh; he wasn't quite sure he could get used to their naked bodies nor their mischievous smiles, but that would have to wait.
The boy continued his exploration to find double French doors made of wrought iron in a geometric design, they were framed by almost empty bookshelves embedded into the walls. The doors opened at his first touch and led him to a beautiful and spacious balcony, filled with roses creeping over the walls and hanging from the balcony.
Yet, it wasn't the balcony what took his breath away, but the view of the night sky.
Like many boys his age, Ness had done his fair share of camping. But no unpolluted night sky back in the English countryside of his childhood nor the rural fields of his late mother's birthplace could compare to what his eyes were seeing now. Were they really in Greece, or were they still even on earth for that matter?
Hanging in the night sky were a ridiculous number of stars, dwarfing the clearest of skies, paraded for him embedded in fantastic nebulas in a myriad of colours. The night sky was filled with all shades of blue, red, gold, and even pink and purple.
And then he noticed the constellations, all of them were there, telling him that, at the very least, he was no longer in Britain, but he knew for sure that he had never seen them like this before; at least not in the actual night sky!
Each constellation was outlined with the shape of what they represented; it looked like someone had painted them manually with such an exquisite technique that he could almost see them breathe. His zodiac sign was Pisces, and he was astounded that he could see it so clearly. He could see the fishes of the constellation, outlined by such a delicate and vaporous light blue line that he could actually see them swimming amidst the night sky. Not so far away, was the decidedly boyish form of Ganymede, presenting himself like when he had ascended to the heavens. He was clutched by the talons of the sacred Eagle of Zeus, all the while pouring his amphora from the dark heavens.
Ness would have happily stayed there forever, staring at that starry night sky in supernatural bliss. But even his amazement wasn't enough to distract him from one of his most primal needs that demanded his undivided attention. It wasn't as if the delicate touch of the silk on his skin and the beauty of the boyish figures in the night sky were helping either.
The boy blushed immediately; he knew in his heart that Noah and that man, his biological father, were right; his new-found senses confirmed their words but, what nobody had told him is if it was OK for someone like him to practice self-love?
Ness was no stranger to masturbation, like any other boy his age, he had been doing it for years now. Especially since that one time when the (thankfully?) male nurse had done that... thing. But it wasn't the nurse or his shame what he tried to recall, but the way he felt when the nurse did what he did with his fingers; a feeling that Ness had been trying to replicate during his most restless nights, trapped between feelings of pleasure and shame.
He could feel the head of his cock emerge from his foreskin, being caressed by the delicate silk. His body trembled in anticipation, his mind full of the images of what had happened today at King's College; the students, the professors, the other choristers, boys he knew and had become friends with, it all came together in an endless parade of exposed flesh and delicate moans...
With that last thought in mind, the boy finally gave in to the feelings that had been building inside him. He disrobed to enjoy the unabashed pleasure of his skin, and lost himself to a place without time, where only pleasure existed. It was exactly like that, with his hand roaming his hairless and engorged member, that Noah found him.
"Ness, you're here, mate? I brought you some clo-"
"Whaaaaaaugh," Ness cried out.
It would seem like Lady Luck was not on his side tonight, for not only had he been caught red-handed, but he had also been caught right at the moment of his climax! And to make it all worse, his seed had reached all the way to Noah's face, to land right on his lips! Of all the days to show off his remarkable marksmanship, life sure had a weird sense of humour. However, Ness didn't have time to wallow in self-pity or embarrassment. He could feel Noah's heart overrun with ecstasy and desire. As the brunet quickly shortened the distance between them and put a finger on his lips, wiped the traces of still warm seed, and then licked it clean.
"You've got no idea of how long I've been waiting to do something like this," Noah whispered, Ness could clearly feel that his friend had a hard on, was he in that state because of him?
"N-Noah?" the boy could barely speak as it was, his heart was happy to be with him and Noah reciprocated but, he was still scared, were they even allowed to have such feelings?
Noah, took the trembling boy in his hands and, erasing any doubt and fear from his troubled mind, held him close to him,
Ness felt their hearts savagely beating in unison as Noah's lips got closer to his own, was this to be his first kiss, bearing the beautiful night sky and the myriad of figures painted on it as their only witness?
But then Noah's lips skipped his lips and pressed themselves against the boy's forehead.
"N-Noah?" the youth inquired, feeling weirded out by his friend's gesture.
"This isn't right," Noah confessed, finally breaking the silence.
"What do you mean?" Ness asked, his heart sinking in his chest, "Is it forbidden?"
"What? No!" Noah assured the boy with a smile, "It's simply that you're still too young, still figuring things out, especially after all of this, you must have many things on your mind. I've been where you are once, and I don't mean to take advantage of you when you are this vulnerable, it's not right," Noah consoled the boy with a sad smile, willing his lust into submission.
"But I love you too, Noah, you know that, don't you?" Ness hurried to say, he had to get it off his chest, it was now or never; how he wanted to stay in his arms forever!
"I know, and I love you too, Ness, I've always loved you since the day I met you." Having emptied the feelings weighing on his chest, Noah felt so much lighter; even if they could read each other like an open book, there still was no replacement for words.
"Is that not enough?" Ness asked, shaking and fighting back tears.
"When you've figured things out, maybe," Noah softly answered, still holding him. "You've barely just arrived here, and you still have so many things yet to see and experience, I feel it would be better not to limit or burden you."
Ness wanted to be angry for denying him, but the feelings from Noah's heart defused his selfishness. Ness could feel Noah's heart beating and the blood in his veins, he could feel the way his heart contracted, wishing to shower him and every inch of his skin in tender kisses and do much more. He would have gladly let Noah, so screw the rules! And screw morality and anything else that stood in the way of his, no, their heart's desire! The night was young and so were they, and for once in his pathetic excuse for a life, he could use that warmth, that love, be selfish, just this once... But... It wasn't up to him, wasn't it? Forcing his selfish feelings won't help at all; he of all people should know. "Are we still friends?" Ness asked with the smallest of voices, dreading the answer as much as the question.
"What sort of question is that?" Noah exclaimed in surprise, tightening his grip on him. "Of course, we'll always be friends, you hear me? Always." I promised your mother, Valentina, that I would always look after you, and I intend to keep that promise.
And with that final confession, silence reigned again, the tension broken by the boy's pure feelings for one another; with nothing but the warmth of their bodies against each other and the sound of their hearts beating in unison.
"It's getting late, Ness," Noah announced all of a sudden, breaking the spell.
"C-can you stay with me?" the boy asked, blushing, "I prefer not to be alone tonight."
"Just sleep?" Noah's lips drew a playful smile on his face.
"Just sleep," Ness returned the tender smile before leaving the comfort of the balcony.
***
"Morning..." Noah's lazy greeting brought back Ness to the present, to his beloved friend and the mystery of the unknown on the horizon.
"Morning," Ness greeted his friend back, still basking in the warmth of his bed and the boy next to him, the chaos and woes of yesterday practically forgotten; if this was a dream, then he wasn't sure if he wanted to wake up.
"Come, I'll draw you a bath!" the boy announced with a grin as he jumped out of bed and danced his way towards the bathroom, his wrinkled toga-thing threatening to fall at any given moment.
Ness, still wrapped in his bedsheets, was quick to follow his friend amidst a strange feeling of bliss; remembering the joys of a time long gone, merely two or three years ago when he was just another child, unaware of what fate had in store for him.
"Mate, I assure you I'm perfectly capable of..." Ness' protests died on his lips when he entered the bathroom, having found Noah's naked backside as he worked on the bath.
"What?" Noah asked, looking behind him at Ness, with an innocent expression on his face.
"Y-you're naked..."
"What about it?" Noah asked with that same innocent expression. "It's nothing you haven't seen before," the boy spoke with a cheeky smile on his face. "Or have you forgotten already?"
Ness returned the smile almost without thinking, blushing ever so slightly, for it had indeed been some time since the last time they had been together like this. At least since he had been comfortable being naked with his friends before things started changing, or rather, in his case, stopped.
"Come on, you can't keep on dragging that bedsheet everywhere!"
"Alright then, after you!" Ness yelled cheerfully, and threw the bedsheet at his friend's face before jumping in the bathtub.
"Oh? It's like that, is it?"
It was only then, as his friend struggled to get out of his silky red trap (that had left him completely exposed from the belly button to his feet) that Ness realized that the tub lacked a tap.
"Where's the fa-" Ness was unable to complete his question due to a tickle attack courtesy of Noah himself; the boy had freed himself and was already standing behind him, tickling him without mercy.
"Don't think I don't remember all of your sensitive spots, mate," Noah laughed with a manic smile.
"I yield!" Ness managed to gasp between bursts of laughter before being released from his torment. "W-where's the tap?" the boy asked, intrigued.
Noah's only answer was one cheeky smile. "Watch this," he said, as he proceeded to touch the statues one by one, a slight touch on their underbelly, just above their metallic penises and the water started flowing. This made the bathtub feel more like a public fountain than anything else with its four boys sculpted in what seemed to be brass (or perhaps bronze?) happily peeing their bath water, and were quickly filling the tub.
"What the hell?!" Ness felt his face blushing at the sight. "What kind of place is this?"
"You'll get used to it," Noah assured him. "Turn around."
Ness did as told and allowed the boy to apply a variety of scented oils, soaps, and shampoos as he massaged his hair, back and newfound wings.
"The sanctuary is a refuge for us minor erotes," Noah started to explain. "Our little piece of paradise away from the woes of the realm of men and the interference of the other gods."
The fond tone of Noah's voice wasn't lost on Ness, which only made him curiouser, the very idea of Gods and demigods existing still felt weird to him.
"Yeah, that doesn't explain the boy tap, fountain, things," Ness deadpanned, though, to be honest, and despite the weirdness of the bathtub the overall experience wasn't bad at all; feeling Noah's fingers all over his back was surprisingly pleasant, it made him feel like he could even get used to the wings. "Is it all like this?" he asked absent-mindedly.
"Why don't we find out?" was the brunet's answer.
The older boy must have done something, for before Ness realized it, he felt water fall on him as if it were raining. It rinsed all of the soaps and oils that Noah had placed on him, along with his worries. This place was weird, but maybe it wasn't that bad? The feeling was, once again, rather short-lived.
***
After their relaxing bathroom session, (and another small session with all manner of perfumes and scented oils). Noah procured new clothes for them both to wear, or at least that's what his friend called them, but for Ness, they were nothing but more bedsheets.
Noah seemed surprisingly used to it, wrapping himself with ease on his set and working on tying an elaborate set of sandals that reached just below the knee. Another detail that wasn't lost on Ness was that, at no point, did the brunet wear anything that could be remotely interpreted as underwear.
"I know it may feel strange at first, but this is the standard of clothing among these parts, we call it a chiton," the boy explained to his friend. "The weather is always perfect here. There is no need for such things as heavy clothes in this place."
"Or underwear, apparently," Ness remarked, making the brunet laugh.
"Yeah, it's liberating, really." Noah smiled at him. "Let me help you."
The brunet then stood up and started wrapping Ness with the soft cloth, but unlike his own which was held together by a single strap on his shoulder, leaving half of his chest (and pink nipple) exposed. Ness had been made to wear two, effectively covering his chest and his small wings from sight.
"Great, now just put these on, and we're ready to go." Noah gave Ness a pair of sandals that ended below the knee, and much to his horror, nothing to wear underneath this bedsheet thing!
The whole get up was as comfortable as you could get without actually being naked. But the clothes had a rather embarrassing opening from his mid-thigh that left one of his legs completely uncovered. Which made it so that one false movement or gush of wind and all his intimacy would be on full display!
"Come on, we don't have all day!"
But there was no time to complain about the draft down there, for Noah took his hand and led him outside his room. It hadn't occurred to Ness until that very same moment that; from the second he woke up in that place, he had never tried to leave the room, so he had no idea of where he was until Noah led him out.
Ness found himself walking through a series of corridors and hallways decorated similarly to his room. The style of them certainly made his choice of clothes fit right in. It was apparent that they were in some sort of manor, big enough to be spacious and luxurious but still small enough to be cosy, intimate, and lived in. This wasn't exactly what he had in mind when he thought what the living space of a god would look like, but then again, what did he know of gods?
Before he knew it, they had left the manor and headed towards some docks on the shore of the tiny island the manor was located on. Ahead of them was nothing but a beautiful open sea, the colour of turquoise. How on earth had they arrived here in the first place?
"Come on!" Noah called Ness over, diverting his attention from the endless sea to his friend, who was happily seated in what could only be described as a metallic fish-like boat.
"Where are we going exactly?" Ness asked nervously while examining the contraption.
"Outside," was his only cryptic answer.
"Aren't we outside already?"
"Are you afraid, mate?" Noah teased the younger boy with a cheeky smile. "Just get in and let me take care of everything."
Ness silently decided to stop trying to make sense of anything and just go with the flow, at least for as long as Noah was with him and kept displaying that level of confidence.
Once they both were seated, Noah placed his hand over a strange crystal embedded at the front of the boat, and his hand started burning? No, it wasn't quite so, the flames were bright red and would revolve only around his hand as well as the crystal without ever extending to the rest of his body or the boat. Neither of them seemed to be affected by it. Whatever they were, they were gone after a couple of seconds, and the contraption was now moving at incredible speeds. They left the small manor and island out of view in what felt like an instant, with the sight of the endless sea, replaced by a massive white and gold structure that occupied the entire horizon.
"Welcome to the Temple of Eros," Noah spoke with a sly smile, breaking the silence as the boat slowly glided to the pearly white docks, where two figures robed in gold silently greeted them before taking over the boat.
"Who were they, mate?" Ness asked, realizing that they were the first adults he had seen since they arrived.
"Oh, they're priests," Noah explained casually as they walked on the white docks towards the inside of the massive temple. "They're mortal men who dedicate their lives to the upkeep of the sanctuary and take care of us."
"Oh," Ness spoke with a small voice, trying to attract as little attention to himself as possible. He silently admired the scale of the temple and the all too many statues delicately painted, colourful frescoes and paintings depicting the glories of Eros and hundreds, if not thousands, of naked winged boys in a wide array of poses. Many of them were perfectly innocent, shooting their arrows in dignified postures; but it didn't take him too long to notice that there were quite a few of them depicted in more mischievous ways, kissing each other, or even touching each other!
As the boys continued their way through the temple, Ness couldn't help but notice the large crowd of people present. There was an eclectic mix of adults, all of them dressed in the longer chitons like the golden priests, but in different colours. There also seemed to be a number of what looked like other kids who couldn't possibly be older than 13 at most, all going about their business.
"The Temple of Eros is the heart of our civilization and, for practical purposes, the centre of government." Noah must have noticed his clueless expression. "We'll be out soon," the brunet spoke, as if he knew of Ness' sudden predicament.
The main entrance turned out to be a massive atrium that left the Pantheon in Rome to shame. Two rows of gigantic columns supported it and a massive acropolis stood outside with a complex network of gardens and slightly smaller temples guarded by giant naked statues that overlooked the rest of the city.
Noah seemed quite pleased with Ness' marvelled expression at everything he saw. "Nice, isn't it?"
"I-it's huge," Ness managed to speak, still flabbergasted by the sheer scale and beauty laid before him, "what are those?"
The boy pointed towards massive crystalline pillars that were sprinkled all over the acropolis. Each pillar seemed to have a different type of stone, and gave the impression that they were not only floating but rotating on their axis, not unlike the Earth itself.
"Oh, the Aetherytes?" Noah asked, seemingly caught off guard. "Eh-"
But Noah wasn't able to explain before a boy suddenly appeared in front of the nearest one, who then made his way to one of the temples with the expression of someone who had just taken the bus.
"They serve as a link between the different realms," an unfamiliar but decidedly boyish voice explained. "We use them to travel between the realm of men and this one. It's been a while, Noah."
"Y-you're, Arkanthos!" Noah exclaimed in surprise when he noticed the newcomer, practically blushing in awe.
Ness turned around to see the newcomer: a boy of white hair, aquamarine eyes and dark skin greeted them. The boy wore similar clothes to them, but his had a blue tint and thigh high sandals, but what caught Ness' attention was the boy's small pristine white wings, not unlike his own.
"And this must be him, am I wrong?" The boy named Arkanthos spoke with a rather sweet tone, a bit reminiscent of a grandfather. "But where are my manners, allow me to introduce myself. I am Arkanthos, Son of Himeros, Aquarius of the Harem of Eros. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance," he said, with a slight bow.
Ness found the boy's manners to be rather old-fashioned, but no less impressive, and his accent indecipherable. At moments, it felt like the boy wanted to kiss his hand like one would do a prince, but he seemed to have restrained himself, afraid of scaring him, perhaps?
"A-Arkanthos, s-sir!" Noah stuttered, his face red as a tomato, speaking like a soldier yet again.
"It's good to have you back, Noah." Arkanthos smiled, placing a hand on Noah's naked shoulder and giving it a short squeeze before letting go. He then turned his attention on Ness, the boy's aquamarine eyes pierced into his very soul, making the boy feel more naked than he already was. "I'm glad you're finally here with us. I recognize that everything is new and scary at the moment, but everything will be alright, trust me," the boy spoke with a reassuring but enigmatic smile.
Ness couldn't help but mutely nod in response, this boy was reading him like an open book, and he had lived for so long; were all cupids like him?
"Oh, dear gods, look at the time!" Arkanthos exclaimed suddenly, having looked at his pocket watch. "I must take my leave; be safe, boys," the enigmatic boy spoke in a tone that was again very reminiscent of a grandfather, even going as far as to tousle the younger boys' hair before rushing inside the massive temple.
"Harem?" Ness couldn't help but blush at the mention of the word, had he really just said harem?
"It's not like that!" Noah was quick to clarify. "Not exactly anyway."
"Not exactly?" a bewildered Ness placed his entire attention on his friend, who just laughed at his expression.
"The Harem is a select elite group of warrior cupids who protects us and the gods from harm," Noah explained casually. "To be chosen to become part of the Harem is one of the greatest honours you can aspire to, but never mind that for now, come take a look at this!" Noah, eager to change the subject, took Ness by the hand and dragged him away from the temples and the bustle and towards the limit of the acropolis.
"This is the best view of the sanctuary," the brunet spoke with enthusiasm, showing him the very edge of the acropolis, marked by a beautiful stone railing.
Ness couldn't help but gasp at the scenery before him. Beyond the railing, the boy could see a luscious garden filled with trees in every colour of the rainbow. There were many of them, all beautifully distributed down the hill they were at, and beyond them, he could make what seemed to be a cosy town of red roofs surrounded by more turquoise waters.
"Told you it was paradise," Noah said with a smile. "Come, there's so much I want to show you."
Ness and Noah locked eyes for a moment as the brunet extended his hand towards his friend: to Ness, this whole thing still felt like a dream, so he allowed himself to be led by the older boy into the gardens downhill.
Upon closer inspection, the gardens were more labyrinthic than initially expected. They were filled with stone columns, arches, vases, fountains and more delicately painted statues of naked or barely naked cupids engaged in all sorts of mischievous situations. Though unlike the ones in the acropolis, the recurring theme of these stone cupids seemed to be water sports, for most of the statues presented the boys peeing into the fountains with varying degrees of decorum and mischief. There was even one doing what looked like a handstand while peeing into a fountain.
Another one made Ness blush quite a bit. He saw a fountain where one cupid was standing up, peeing into the mouth of a kneeling cupid, who was then peeing into the bowl of the fountain.
"Uh, Noah? What is that cupid over there doing?"
Noah turned to look at where Ness was indicating, and to his horror, he saw a fellow cupid with his lips around the stone cocklet of a fountain cupid, drinking the water directly! "Annnddd, we're gone." Grabbing Ness, he quickly turned him around and frog marched him out of that section of the garden.
"Uh, yeah, forgot to mention, the fountains aren't there just for decor, the water is fully drinkable" a very red-faced Noah explained with his eyes nailed on the ground, avoiding Ness' surprised expression. "Besides, that was completely unhygienic! Putting his lips directly on the cocklet? That cupid had no class at all."
"Uh...
so what is the right way to do it?"
"Everyone knows that you just open your mouth and let the statue pee
directly into it."
"So
that other fountain with the two cupids was actually instructions on how to
drink from the fountains properly?"
"Yeah pretty much."
Ness kept quiet for a bit, trying to process what he had just seen and heard, it kind of was a lot to take in to know that acting like a human urinal was considered proper around these parts. "But... you guys don't actually drink piss from each other, right?" Ness asked very hesitantly.
"..."
"Right?"
"Well..." Noah began, blushing slightly, but when he saw Ness' eyes start to go wide, he decided to change tack. "Only some cupids do that. Let's continue! There's still so much you haven't seen yet!" Noah exclaimed, pointing away from the drinking fountains. "Look! Rose trees!"
"Huh?" Ness looked in the direction Noah pointed out to find something that completely caught the boy's attention away from the beautiful but raunchy garden decor. Big massive trees filled to the brim with delicate roses, leaving no space for a single green leaf and no thorns in sight. Ness had never seen anything like that before.
Before the boy could even make an attempt at putting his impression into words, a strange faint noise caught his attention. "Do you hear that?" Ness questioned his friend in a mix of intrigue and plain old curiosity.
"Hear what?" Noah asked with genuine innocence.
"That noise," Ness responded, he could hear it closer now, it had a stable repetitive rhythm, like the sound of a soft object hitting something else, or maybe the sound a spanking makes?
"Oh yeah, that," Noah answered, finally picking on it. "Don't pay it attention, it's nothing important," the boy assured his friend but was unable to hide his blushing skin when a couple of childish moans were added to the rhythm along the words "Oh sweet Eros, harder!"
"This place isn't called the Garden of Delights just because, isn't it, Noah?" said a dark-skinned boy with long curly black hair. He was dressed in a one strapped chiton like Noah; but unlike Noah's, his was so thin that there was merely a strip of cloth that barely covered the left side of his chest and flew behind his back like a waterfall. Elaborate thigh high sandals and a particularly short "skirt" as he approached the two friends with a mischievous smile on his face.
"Jared!" Noah recognized the boy with no small amount of dread.
"Long time no see, you old cunt!" Jared causally kissed Noah on the cheek before turning to Ness. "And who's this cutie you got here? Don't tell me you're preying on the newbies."
"This is my friend Andres, Ness for short, he arrived last night," Noah explained in a guarded tone, as he stood closer to Ness as if to protect him. "I'm not preying on anyone, I'm merely showing him around. Besides, isn't that your self-appointed job?"
"Showing him the Garden of Delights?" Jared laughed incredulously, while also ignoring Noah's jab at him. "You can't deceive me, Noah. You should know better than anyone not to prey on our little brothers!" the boy said with a big grin on his face.
"Garden of Delights?" Ness inquired, preventing Noah from being able to defend himself from his old friend's playful accusations.
"And you dare deny it when you haven't even told him of this place," Jared pointed his finger in a playful accusatory tone. "It's the name of this beautiful garden you see here, it's where us cupids and the other citizens of the sanctuary like to come to unwind after a long day's work; think of it like New York's Central Park."
"Stop," Noah warned Jared. "He doesn't need to know!"
Ness had a questioning look on his face. "Know what?"
"It's also a perfect place for a quickie with the boys! You should probably avoid coming alone at night, though."
"Jared!"
"What? He's gonna find out eventually!" Jared tried to reason. "We wouldn't want to throw such a tender cutie like my little brother Ness into the dangers of the night so soon, would ya? They'd eat him alive! Figuratively, of course, but they would drink plenty from him."
"A q-quickie?" Ness asked, but the blood rushing to his face showed he needed no further explanation of the type of activities cupids considered unwinding, which made Jared to smile even further.
"What sort of education are mortals teaching these days?" Jared inquired in fake outrage. "Come let big brother Jared teach you all you must know about the marvellous cupid lifestyle," the boy announced as he casually wrapped his arms against Ness' waist, dangerously close to his unprotected behind.
Jared must have picked up on Ness' fright because he stopped for a moment.
"Don't you worry, little bro," Jared assured Ness with one of his charming smiles. "I don't bite, unless you want me to."
"Jared!" Noah said this time with more force.
"Gee, all that time in the world of men sure has made you quite stiff, Noah, you haven't even taught him how to greet his brothers!" Jared countered with a smile. "Now this may come as a bit of a shock to you cold European boys, but here, we greet each other with a kiss on the cheek."
"Ness..."
"Actually, I'm Mexican on my mother's side, so..." Ness explained shyly, and it felt like Jared's eyes just lit up upon hearing those words.
Shaking his head slowly, Noah tried to intervene, "You shouldn't have told him that, mate." Alas, it was too late.
"Oh hermanito, I love cute Mexican boys!" Jared pulled Ness closer and lifted his chin with his fingers, closing in for a kiss. "Dame un b- [1]"
Jared wasn't able to finish his request, for instead of Ness' tender lips he found Noah's hand pushing him back with quite some prejudice.
"Who's preying on the little brothers, again?" a very flustered Noah interrupted Jared's antics.
"Didn't you say that was my job? Relax man, I just wanted to greet my new baby brother, that's all." Jared laughed despite being denied by Noah, seeming to not letting it bother him in the slightest.
Ness on his part couldn't help but to be flustered by all of this. Jared was a beautiful boy, undoubtedly, but the sheer open display of raw lust from him had scared him a little; were all cupids like him? Would he grow up to be as lascivious as Jared? It felt like a scary prospect, and yet, he found himself longing for it; no, that was surely wrong, this type of thing couldn't be normal, could it?
"Yeah, forgive me if I don't believe you," was Noah's answer.
"I'm just following my nature, our nature," Jared countered with his same cheeky attitude as he wrapped his arms on Noah, this time, joining his crotch against his. "You haven't even told him about his own body, have you?"
"He'll learn it at the Novice academy."
"W-what about my body?" Ness asked with genuine curiosity, but no less sacred for it.
Noah kept silent, his heart torn between his desire to protect Ness, his Ness, from the dangers of this new world and the truth of their condition.
"Would you rather I do it?" Jared raised an eyebrow, prompting the brunet to speak.
"O-our bodies are different from that of the humans, mate," he started, his pale skin turning into a lovely shade of red. "I'm sure you've already figured this out, but we don't really physically age past 12 or 13."
"In other news, water is wet." Now it was Jared's turn to nag the brunet. "Tell him the real differences."
Truth be told, Ness had already figured that out, but still appreciated Noah saying it out loud.
"One of the things that makes us different from humans is our p-prostate." Noah swallowed audibly. "It's b-bigger than a human's and far more sensitive."
This wasn't quite the surprise it should have been to Ness, given the medical examinations he had gone through already. But he'd be lying if he said he didn't blush at the thought of Noah's prostate, or even Jared's.
"You're missing the best part," Jared seemed exasperated by Noah's attitude, so he quickly took over. "We cupids are built for pleasure, we are famous for having a naturally high libido and the stamina to match, as I'm sure you've already discovered."
"And so you use this place to..."
"Discharge some of that energy? Yup, allow me to demonstrate," Jared announced as he eyed a passer-by cupid. However, unlike the other people roaming through the garden, cupid and non-cupid alike; the newcomer was completely naked except for his sandals and a hood with a curious white mask that obscured the boy's face completely but had a conspicuously O shaped mouth and little slits where their eyes would be.
"Young cupids are always so shy," Jared said playfully as he approached the masked boy and spanked his exposed butt unprompted. It wasn't lost on Ness that the eldest of the cupids already had a tent in his only piece of clothing. "But not even they can deny their nature."
The masked cupid turned around to face Jared, and he seemed to have approved of him, for he was instantly wrapped around him. His hands lifted Jared's tunic to expose his beautiful shaped behind as the older boy kissed the newcomer's nipples with abandon.
Jared quickly discarded his clothes, and softly asked the masked boy to turn around and bend over. Which the boy did without a second thought, giving Noah and Ness a privileged view of all his boyish charms, meanwhile Jared slapped his soft ass with his hardened member.
The masked boy was practically trembling in anticipation, his light skin making a nice contrast against Jared's own darker skin.
Ness couldn't avert his eyes, nor could he keep his boner down; were they going to do it right here? Out in the open? Right in front of them?
"Not on the shrubbery, boys. I just fixed that!!" an older voice nagged the two would be lovers, making both turn around to find the owner. A handsome teenage boy of about 16 years old stood there with his long robes and a thick leather belt filled with what seemed to be brass gardening equipment, meanwhile a rather big tent stemmed from underneath his waist.
Jared and the masked boy locked eyes before turning to the teen priest apprentice and then to the tent in his tunic before locking eyes again.
"Oh, we're sorry," Jared spoke in a very sweet tone. "Say, why don't we help you as a way to make it up to you?" Jared asked with a lewd smile, at the same time he fingered his own erection.
The priest just smiled and immediately dropped his gardening tools, allowing both boys to hug him, one on each side, leaving the priest's hands free to explore each boy's behinds before he led them into the labyrinthic corridors.
Before they disappeared, Jared turned to Ness and Noah one last time. "Before I forget, you two must come to my birthday party, you hear me? And stop trying to keep that cutie in a bubble, Noah!"
Needless to say, both Noah and Ness were not only heavily blushing, but both were sporting hard ones of their own. Having skipped the undies had been a huge mistake.
"Is this a common thing?" Ness broke the silence with a small voice. Still not sure if he could believe his eyes.
"There's always two or three boys like that one at any given time," Noah answered. "Jared can tell you more about it, I wouldn't..."
"I-is everyone like Jared?" Ness asked, still blushing, his heart beating hard against his chest in a mix of fright and anticipation.
"There's no reason to be afraid, Ness," Noah told his friend, reaching for his hand. "Jared has the right of it; this is part of our nature; in this world, sexuality is not repressed in any way. I was hoping to ease you into our culture more slowly, I wanted to avoid upsetting or scare you even more."
Ness was at a loss for words, but he could feel his friend's honesty, so his answer came in a small gesture, squeezing Noah's hand. Ness assured his friend in a way words couldn't. Being a cupid sounded a bit strange and scary, but he wasn't alone this time.

Like any other Religious-Military organization, the Harem of Eros occupied an important portion of the Temple of Eros. The whole front portion of the temple was dedicated to them, making it easier for the warrior erotes to respond to any sort of hostilities against their kind or against their fathers and gods from outside forces. It also gave them a specially privileged view of the acropolis and everything around it.
"So, what do you think?" Eros asked absent-mindedly as the erote who held the sign of Aquarius entered the Harem's chambers.
"My Lord," Arkanthos immediately nailed a knee to the floor, acknowledging the god.
"You can skip the formalities, Ark," the God spoke with a smile. "It's just the two of us right now."
Arkanthos broke his posture and approached the god like one would do an old friend, but kept silent for a moment, formulating his answer with care.
"Noah has proved himself beyond any possible doubt, he went beyond duty in this last mission," the boy answered, his eyes stuck in the floor. "I cannot think of anyone who deserves it more."
"You're still worried about Niko," Eros announced rather than ask, and silence took over the room.
"How couldn't I?" Arkanthos confessed after a while. "Unlike the rest of us who only share a father, besides Gemini; they shared both father and mother, they were true brothers."
Eros allowed himself a moment of silence for the memory of the boy fallen in the line of duty.
"What you say is true, my friend," the God confessed. "Yet the truth remains that we cannot keep the position of Sagittarius vacant forever."
"So it's decided then?" Arkanthos asked.
"Not yet," Eros said. "I want to see what your brothers think about it first; it's been 15 years already, a couple more days won't hurt anyone."
"Shall I summon them?"
"I got another task for you first." Eros' eyes pointed to a certain part of his anatomy.
Arkanthos just smiled lewdly. "Yes, my Lord!"

Glossary:
[1] "Dame un b-": what Jared was trying to say before he got so rudely interrupted was "give me a kiss".
~Extra Scene: Jared's Reverse Oreo~
The Garden of Delights had always been a favourite spot for the hard-working cupids after a busy day, and few between them knew this better than Jared.
Except perhaps for the hunky 16-year-old, whose hand was firmly caressing his naked behind; slowly exploring between his soft buns in search for his most intimate spot as he led him and the mysterious boy in a full face mask through the labyrinthine corridors of the garden.
The lusty trio quickly reached a small clearing amidst the green walls. It had a stone bed and a small fountain with a naked cupid perched on top, the statue had a mischievous smile on its face as it peed with its erect stone prick.
The boy's fingers abandoned their exploration for a brief moment only to gently instruct the eager cupids to stand upon the stone bed, which they did without skipping a beat; their young erections now at face level with the gardening apprentice who took the initiative, not without dedicating a moment to admire the beauty before him.
The gardening boy buried his face between both cupids, basking in their scent and beauty, from the sheer niveous skin of the masked cupid to Jared's dark caramel skin; his fingers soon returned to their rightful place, gently poking at the boy's entrances as he proceeded to worship the two cocklets presented to him.
He started with a quick kiss on each glistening head as a way of greeting them, before finally engulfing Jared's whole erection in one go as his fingers started to enter both boys.
Jared quickly placed his hand on the boy's raven hair as he continued to savour his erection, meanwhile the masked cupid rubbed his on the boy's cheek, leaving a trail of precum in his wake.
The boy quickly abandoned Jared's erection to taste the other cupid with the same eagerness as his fingers buried themselves deeper inside them. Jared allowed himself to enjoy the double assault on his body as the gardening boy started to quickly switch between him and the masked cupid in quick succession. Before then trying to take both at the same time, making the cupids stand as closely as possible while his tongue ravaged their cock heads and played with their foreskins while his fingers invaded and stretched their holes without mercy. Soon, both boys found themselves quickly filing his throat with their milky seed as they moaned in unison.
The gardening boy took both loads without spilling a drop and swallowed them with glee.
"W-what was your name, again?" A mischievous smile appeared on Jared's lips. As usual, the apprentice's performance was a testament of the impeccable education they received in the academy, as well as undeniable proof of their vocation to serve the erotes and their cause, in both body and soul. This boy had definitely earned a reward.
"Min-Jun, at your service." The gardening boy nailed a knee on the grown as he bowed down to the winded Erotes.
"Take off your chiton, Min-Jun." Jared bit his lower lip, there was something so intoxicating about having an older boy like him eager to follow his every whim and fulfil even his darkest desires, and Jared was always eager to use that power. "Show me what you have."
Min-Jun smiled at the but blushed all the same as he quickly undid his belt as well as the golden clasp that kept his chiton in place. The cloth flew down with ease, but ended up perched over the boy's erection. Jared was practically purring at the sight; the boy had a lean but well toned body and barely a hint of pubic hair.
With a playful smile, Min-Jun made a quick hip movement and the cloth finally dropped to the floor, revealing the teenager's good 5.8" erection dripping with precum. The apprentice stood there awaiting instructions from the two cupids, who had their eyes stuck on his erection.
"Come, Min-Jun," Jared instructed as he sat on the stone bed, his own erection already fully awoken. "It's time to give you your reward."
The teen did as told and silently stood in front of the two boys who wasted no time in rewarding his loyalty and services, starting with Jared who gleefully licked his erection as if it was a lollipop.
As an erote, Jared had the power to do anything he pleased with the priests, including using them for his own selfish pleasure. If he wanted, he could have had this teenager on all fours begging to be penetrated by him, or even gang banged; or otherwise completely dominated in any way he could think of for his own entertainment without being required to reciprocate in any way. But truth be told, not only did his cock look really appetizing, but his butt was aching to be filled just as much.
Jared took his time with the teen's cock, paying special attention to the glistening head, meanwhile the masked cupid focused on the boy's smooth balls. He knew he had to go slowly lest Min-Jun finished in his throat, and as good as that sounded, he had bigger plans for that load. For the dark-skinned cupid, the Asian teen was a special delicacy, even at that age, his body odour was still rather sweet and light, not to mention the taste of his skin.
Jared and the masked cupid silently decided to change places, leaving the teen's balls and taint at his mercy. Jared didn't waste time and started to work on them, meanwhile his hand mimicked what the teen had done to him earlier, as he quickly explored his hole. His small fingers met little to no resistance, which would have made him smile if it wasn't for the fact that he had his balls in his mouth.
Min-Jun on his part couldn't help but to moan and spread his legs further as the masked cupid seemed determined to deep throat him while Jared fingered his prostate. The teenager was being ravaged in three different ways at the same time and was as close to Elysium as he could get without actually dying; if things continued this way, it wouldn't be long before he spilled his seed.
Alas, that was something Jared wasn't going to allow, not so soon at least; with a couple of swift movements, Jared dislodged his fingers and mouth from the boy and instructed the masked cupid to do the same, much to the teen's disappointment.
"Now, don't fret, Min-Jun," the dark-skinned cupid smiled lewdly. "I still require your services."
Jared made the masked cupid kneel onto the stone bed, his cheeks wide open, showing his exposed pink hole, taint, and balls before laying next to him in the same position.
The gardening teen felt his cock grow bigger at such a sight, if that was even physically possible; however, when he tried to place his dick over Jared's inviting hole the cupid moved, denying him access.
"Easy there, speedy," Jared practically purred at the feel of that engorged cock between his buns, but he had to persevere. "Your tongue first," he instructed as he wiggled his round butt, tempting the apprentice.
It took all of Min-Jun's willpower to withdraw his pulsating cock and replace it with his tongue as he tried to remember his training and oath.
The teen's mind was immediately invaded by the musky taste of Jared's hole, and he was hooked. He buried his tongue deeper still, trying to get more of the intoxicating scent, making the cupid erupt in moans as his knees grew weak.
It was Jared who had to gather all his willpower this time to ask the eager teen to stop slurping on his hole and move on to the even more eager boy next to him.
The teen took his time savouring the dark-skinned boy for one last time before moving to the trembling boy of niveous skin and rosy asshole and digging his tongue again with gusto. If Jared's taste was powerful, rich, and sweet, like a fine chocolate, this boy's rosy hole had a delicate and almost floral taste, like vanilla. Both boys had surprisingly different flavours to their smooth and soft skin but for Min-Jun, such combination went surprisingly well together, and it was something he could get addicted to.
Unlike the older and more seasoned Jared, the masked cupid went rigid rapidly and was unable to hold his melodic moans; not that moaning was frowned upon in any way, but if the mask wasn't enough proof of the boy's inexperience, his sweet voice sure was. Jared was quick to silence the boy, more out of impatience than annoyment, by sealing his lips in a kiss and invading his mouth with his tongue.
When the boy broke the kiss to breathe, it was very apparent that the masked cupid was ready, so Jared proceeded to gently remove Min-Jun's tongue away from the boy's ass.
"That's enough of that; I'll be taking your place now," Jared spoke gently as he placed his aching erection over the boy's loosened hole. "As for you, I need your attention right here, and I'm afraid your tongue won't cut it this time around," the boy said as he separated his own ass cheeks to reveal his own loosened hole that glistened with saliva."
Min-Jun's heart beat inside his chest like a powerful drum as it tried to command yet more blood to his erection. The sight of Jared's behind with his own cocklet just circling the masked cupid's hole was almost too much to bear.
The gardening boy didn't have to be told twice and immediately placed his engorged cock on Jared's hungry hole and pushed, making him penetrate the masked cupid in turn as they all moaned in unison.
"Keep at it, Min-Jun, I need all of you inside." Jared, as always, was rather quick to fall to his instincts and was unable to hold on any longer; he needed it, and he needed it hard!
The gardener was all too happy to oblige and gleefully rammed his whole length in a single go, which of course made Jared do the same to the masked cupid as well. Which resulted in a melodic song composed of moans and pleasure as both boys couldn't help but to be overwhelmed by the feeling emanating from their smooth bodies.
Jared suddenly found himself sandwiched between two hot bodies and locked in position as the teen drilled his ass and he himself was made to drill the younger boy's behind. The resulting sensation was quite overwhelming, and it was only growing as Min-Jun continued to hit his prostate with every movement.
Jared could feel his penis melt inside the tight hole of his fellow cupid as the gardening boy kept going in and out of him at a fast pace. The cupid could feel how even his mind and any sense of rationality melted away to be replaced by pure, unabashed lust. At that moment, nothing else mattered any more or even existed. Nothing but the raw and primitive pursuit of pleasure.
It didn't take long for the boys to finally reach the limits of their resistance and were embraced by a powerful orgasm. It could only be described as a religious experience as they filled their creamy loads inside each other.
For Jared and the masked cupid, the orgasm was twofold, for not only could they experience their own but each other's as well. This proved to be a little too much for the masked cupid, whose knees were unable to withstand his own weight. He fell into the soft grass, which dislodged him from Jared's pulsating prick in the process; which was still pumping some of his own creamy seed into him. Which resulted in the spilled seed falling all over his lower back, buns and taint as the rest of it oozed freely from his hole.
Jared on the other hand was still firmly in place, riding every last wave of the orgasm as the teen priest's cock pulsated and filled his insides with his seed.
However, as good as that had been, he wasn't completely satisfied, not just yet. But such are the ways of the erotes; they could not achieve complete satisfaction from a single sexual encounter like this one.
Jared just let himself carefully fall next to his mysterious young lover, dislodging himself from the teenager's cock. The boy had to suppress the urge to ride the gardener's cock again; as this was meant to be a light snack, after all.
Yet, he suddenly felt so famished? How was he going to make it without going crazy with what little they had done? Perhaps a bit of overindulgence wouldn't hurt, would it?
Jared rolled over to face his masked brother, their shared nature allowed him to know that he was of the same mind. His smooth body trembled with uncontrollable desire, still barely able to contain the milky seed inside him and already begging for more.
Jared moved to a kneeling position in front of the cupid. "Come, brother," Jared spoke to his fellow cupid with desire building up again. "There's more where that came from," the boy spoke as he slowly fingered his own erection back to life.
With wobbly legs, the masked cupid got on all fours and latched on to Jared's erection like a baby to his mother's breast, covering it with sloppy kisses and wet licks before engulfing it whole.
"I hope there's still some life in you, Min-Jun," Jared spoke between moans as his hands opened up the masked cupid's ass cheeks to reveal his overflowing hole. "They do give you the proper sustenance back at the academy, do they not?"
The gardening boy smiled wickedly and wasted no time in words. Kneeling before that beautifully used behind, he slipped his erection in without major problems, though not without making the receiving cupid moan in delight at the sensation stretching his insides. Jared smiled upon hearing the melodious voice of his fellow cupid fill the air as the gardener filled him. These young cupids were always quite something, despite their lack of knowledge or technique, there was something so erotic about seeing them experience sexual pleasure for the first few times while they still had some shyness left.
Jared knew he couldn't stretch this out forever and that this second time would go faster, but he had more than sex and pleasure in his mind. Working through the pleasure given to him by the masked boy, he slowly moved his hands towards the boy's head, right between where the hood that covered his hair met the mask.
Like many other cupids, Jared knew a good deal of spells for all manner of occasions, including his favourite and most used spell. It was a risky spell to use and one whose usage had resulted in controversy. But Jared had enough experience to know when to use it, when to give that tiny little push in the right direction to help a young cupid emerge from his mask. He had to time it just right; which wasn't easy, feeling how the boy clumsily slurped his cock with greed and ran his tongue all over his cock head, while he couldn't help but moan at the bigger cock ploughing his insides. He could feel the pressure building up within him already, almost there now.
"K-keep going, I'm going to c-" Jared couldn't finish the sentence as he started to come, but not before activating his spell and making the cupid's mask fall off his face. Which revealed the cupid's angelical features: blond curls and blue eyes, before getting showered with his warm spunk.
The unmasked cupid blushed fiercely at having his identity revealed, and his skin became red as a tomato, but couldn't do anything, for he soon felt Min-Jun's cock pulsating inside him and feeling him with more spunk. Jared, on the other hand, didn't waste any time at all, and kissed his brother cupid on his cherry lips, tasting his own seed in the process.
"Someone as beautiful as you, shouldn't hide behind a mask," Jared said after he broke the kiss. " You look even more beautiful with my seed on your face," he added as he liked some more cum of his trembling face.
Jared smiled at the veritable storm of feelings inside his brother, cupid. Shame and satisfaction fought against each other in a swirl of adrenaline, boys like him were so good, it was best to pick them young. "Tell you what, cutie." Jared drew closer to him and embraced him with tenderness, which the cupid quickly reciprocated. "You must come to my birthday party, you too, Min-Jun! We'll have lots of great food and sing and dance and have lots of fun, and everyone will appreciate your beauty."
The cupids kissed again as they rested on the ground; the trick had worked, it always did. After this and his party, the boy would never use a mask ever again...
