Chapter 2. First Blood.
Part 2.
He went around all of the boys on sale and checking each one over meticulously he humiliated them to ensure that they were properly broken. Finally he came to the last, a brown skinned youth with an attitude, the boy exhibited signs of rebelliousness, anger and incompliance and the captain said to his owner."What's with this little prick slave, he's not properly broken?" He grabbed the boy's testicles and pulled down sharply causing the boy to loose his footing and fall crashing to the flagstone floor.Â
The slaver was genuinely apologetic as he came running over, to appease the Captain he took a whip from his belt and laid into the squirming boy. The slaver was obviously humiliated that his slave had acted up and so he beat the boy severely; the beating was so intense that later in the day we heard that the boy had not survived. The captain on hearing this said only, "Well, if they won't comply, they die, it's that simple" The captain bought four of the boys, and when he had settled up his bill we left the opulent villa. I asked him why we weren't taking the slaves with us and he told me that they would be delivered directly to him aboard the Emperor.
That evening we didn't return to the ship, instead the captain took me to a secluded beach.
"This is one of my secret places Billy" he gently peeled off my shirt and said, "Billy-boy, you are far too beautiful to ware cloths" he smiled his handsome smile and accepting his compliment self-consciously as I lay down on the cool moonlit sand. The captain lay down beside me, he had undressed himself and I could smell his sweet, pungent aroma drifting on the still night air. It was perplexing to me how this man who was always so gentle and kind with me could be such a complete asshole to everyone else.
The captain had clasped his great hands under his head so that his hairy armpits were exposed in the moonlight, I breathed in his sent, conscious of the raw beauty and naked grace of this most perfect setting.
"Billy-boy I know I promised to release you when we landed, but I'm going back on that promise, you still have much to teach this old pirate" He was looking directly up, his glassy eyes sparkling in the starlight.
"I understand Sir" I said, "I'm happy to serve you Sir" I had almost forgotten my former life in just a week and collage was but a distant memory. I had become completely lost in the drama, fantasy and intrigue of my new adventure with Captain Abraham.
"That's good Billy, I'm not a violent man so I would not enjoy you as much as I do if I had to force you like I do the slaves, now how about a swim Billy my boy?"
I got up from the moonlit beach and ran into the calm onyx sea, he was right behind me and he grabbed me from behind as we entered the warm tropical water. He pulled me close to himself and then dumped me into black water, I came to the surface spluttering and coughing for air, he stooped and lifted me, "I'm sorry Billy-boy" he feigned concern as he laughed his hearty laugh at me then unexpectedly, he kissed me.
In the soft moonlight, waist deep in the warm tropical sea, his lips on mine, he kissed me deeply and with unconcealed passion. I was not prepared for this, I pulled away but he pulled me back close to him.
"Captain" I said "I don't understand" my head was swimming and in my confusion I slipped down into the dark water and swam away. I had no way to apply meaning to what had happened; I crawled up onto the beach and sat beside the dripping wet, rejected man. His head hanging he said.
Â
"I'm sorry Billy, it won't happen again" I felt a wave of relief as he spoke, I was now, in this place of great beauty and freedom feeling more his captive that ever. I was relieved to hear him release me from his further physical embrace.
"I wanted you from the first moment Billy, that is why I protected you, but I will not force you against your will" His muscular arm wrapped around my shoulder like a brother, he held me close, as together we stared out across the boundless sea. Soon we drifted into a balmy sleep and still resting my head on his powerful arm I remember he whispered to me just before I fell into unconsciousness, "I love you Billy my boy"
The next morning when I awoke; he was sitting next to me fully clothed.
"Come on Billy, we have a boat to catch my boy" I ran into the sea to refreshed myself then I quickly pulled on my tattered trousers. The captain had given me shirt to go with the ridiculously tight pants and if I didn't tuck it in it hung down far enough to protect my dwindling modesty. He took my hand and ran along the beach.
"We can get to the dingy faster following the coast than going over land" he said. He was right, soon we rounded a small bluff and there, at the other end of a short pristine beach, was the captain's dingy.
Once everyone was back aboard the Emperor and we had set sail the captain retired to his cabin. I was there thumbing through one of his many books when he said to me in a serious tone.
"Billy I am going to take another boy tonight" I was flawed, I responded with "Yes Sir"
"Billy-boy, you will be here with me, don't worry, you are my true pirates treasure" he laughed his hearty laugh. I was not sure what he meant or how to respond. I was becoming used to my perpetual state of bewilderment.
