Eras listened to his story and all that he admitted. He tried to keep his expression mild so as not to show the abject horror he was feeling. It wasn’t his place to tell other men how to rule their country. Not even his King could do such a thing, but he could be proud of the aspects in which his own country operated. Grateful he was born beneath the high Dusanian sun.<br/><br/>“It’s strange to me that my country treats their slaves better than your country treats their Khan.” Eras was perplexed. If they could do that to their elite he could not imagine how their slaves were treated. Sure, he’d heard the ghastly stories but he’d hoped that they were exaggerated. Taiga seemed as if his emotions were all over the place, a mixture of things but the desire to kiss Eras had won out. It was sweet, a little clumsy. Eras leaned against the lip of the bathing pool, Taiga sliding into his lap. Eras’s lips parted, tasting, inviting more.<br/><br/>“You do not need to<i>know</i>. It is not so complicated,” Eras said. Neither was he incompetent nor was he a brute, yet with such a violent history he was careful how he proceeded. “You do not need to take everything in at once either. You only just arrived. Still, you do not have to tell anyone what you do when doors close. You are in the land of my gods now and they do not condemn you.” Eras rarely spoke on behalf of his gods, but if he knew one thing, it was that.<br/><br/>“You may have all the pleasure that you seek.” And no one would fault him. Certainly not Eras who took pleasure for himself whenever opportunity presented, such as now, enjoying a dangerous representative in his lap. Sarhet would scold him until his ears fell off, he was sure of it. He felt the weight of his erection against his belly. His own cock was filling at the wet contact.<br/><br/>“I am yours to command or you can allow me to continue to guess.” Said so that Taiga could maintain some semblance of control. He was sure it was better to order a slave to perform a certain act than it was for that slave to take advantage of the situation. “If we take things my way, it will be slower.” Though something would have to be done at present. “I am not cruel though.” Eras reached between them to wrap long smooth fingers around Taiga’s erection, seeking his lips out again, this time more insistent on deepening the kiss.
