Chapter 38: "A Most Welcome Decision"

Master's stimulation of my prostate continues to excite me; my cock bucks
and bounces with each thrust of his finger. And this isn't lost on
Master. Once more he smiles at me and asks me.

"You like that Rafe?"

And truthfully, I answer.

"Oh! Yes Master!"

My emotions are in turmoil. Very publicly, Master is pleasuring me in front
of his head overseer and my personal trainer, Sir Conn. A few short months
ago, I would have been shamed by this but now I have no shame. I am a slave
and I have lost all my former inhibitions. Eagerly, I give myself over to
the moment and take my pleasure from my Master's attention.  For the past
six months, I have been denied sexual release and my only sexual activities
were the daily dalliances I'd enjoyed with Sir Conn in some secluded spot
hidden away from the prying eyes of both slaves and overseers.

Master has just whispered in my ear that he will fuck me just as soon as he
returns to the city with me.  My return to the city will be a most welcome
decision for two reasons.

Firstly, it means I will be permanently re-united with my beloved
Norge. How I have missed him for these past six months. It's true, I have
seen him whenever Master visited La Foret but we only observed each other
from a distance. We never spoke and we never touched. I hunger for his
warmth, his smell and the feel of his hard body pressed up against my own
eager one. I miss the sensation and the taste of his cock in my hungry
mouth but most of all I long to feel him moving inside of me.

Sometimes, as I knelt in front of Sir Conn, I fantasised it was Norge's
cock in my mouth and I worked enthusiastically to give him the maximum
pleasure. Of course, Sir Conn was the unwitting beneficiary of my over
active imagination.

Secondly, Master has declared his intention to take me into his bed and
claim what is legally his. He is to exercise his "jus primae noctis" rights
over me.  Enshrined in the slave laws that govern us is the "law of the
first night" which gives an owner the unchallenged right to be the first to
use a new slave sexually.

Of course, some masters never avail themselves of this right. However,
other slave-owners see it as a right and a duty and, as a master; I had
enthusiastically shared this view. But I'd never delayed as long as Master
has with me. My usual practice was to "initiate" a slave on the first night
of my ownership of him.

By fucking a new slave, I put my stamp on him. No doubt it shamed him to be
used so casually by his new master but the lesson was a powerful one. It
showed the slave that he was now owned property; a mere chattel to be used
by his owner as he wished. I'd always considered it kinder to the slave to
make him aware of his new status from the outset. To delay could confuse
the slave.

I have been a slave for nearly seven months now and Master has delayed
asserting his 'first night' rights over me. At first this had puzzled me
and I wondered why he hesitated. At the time I was enslaved, I was what the
slave dealers would suggestively describe as a "highly desirable property
well suited to provide pleasure to the most discerning master".

And I know this description of me to be accurate. When I say this I am not
boasting and there are no notions of being bigheaded on my part.

I was an attractive, highly desirable new slave and surely one that a new
master would want to take to his bed at the first opportunity.

As a Master, I had prided myself on my ability to appraise a slave. I was
after all a connoisseur of prime, young, male slaves and I was a frequent
visitor to the slave-pens. I'd always been attracted to the newly
enslaved. They possessed a vulnerability that had appealed to me. As I
viewed them through the bars of the holding pens, I noted their
bewilderment at their changed circumstances and their dread of their
uncertain futures. They were caught up in the maelstrom of their emotions
and their fear of the unknown. And I was attracted to that.

At the time of my own enslavement, I shared these emotions and I suppose I
too must have exhibited my vulnerability.  But my Master didn't exploit my
vulnerability. Instead, he chose to ignore it. He left me untouched.

Master had placed my ass out of bounds and had ordered that I be
quarantined from the predations of my fellow slaves.  And at first, in my
frustration, I had wondered why he did this. Then I realised that my Master
had adopted a very different approach to my own. He had his own unique way
of asserting his complete ownership of me.

Usually, I had established my right of ownership over a new slave by using
him on the first night but my Master chose to treat me differently. His
approach was the opposite of mine but it was far more
effective. Succinctly, by delaying his taking of my cherry, he was telling
me that every aspect of my being now belonged to him - even my
sexuality. By placing me in quarantine, he impressed upon me that I no
longer controlled that aspect of my life. It was a potent demonstration
that sexual release or pleasure for a slave is a gift to be bestowed or
withheld at the whim of his Master.

During my time at La Foret, I have learned that as a slave, I am totally
dependent on my Master for everything. Firstly, my life and my body are
his; I belong to him. Through his overseers, he decrees when I can sleep
and when I must wake; and when I am to work or when I can rest. I am
dependent on him for the food I eat and the water I drink.  Everything I
have is the gift of my Master - even my sexuality - and I must be forever
grateful to him.

It was a hard lesson to learn but I have done so!

Now, my Master has whispered in my ear that when I'm returned to the city
he will fuck me.  Emotionally and physically I am ready for this and indeed
I look forward to submitting to him.  Perhaps when Master has subjected me
to the "law of the first night", he'll allow me to lie alongside my beloved
Norge and open up my body to him. I sincerely hope so - with every fibre of
my being.

Master's finger continues to excite me, but in my imagination, it is
Norge's cock moving inside of me and raising me to levels of feverish
expectations.

Master appears pleased with my response to his digital stimulation and,
withdrawing his finger from my ass, he uses it to tap my jaw as he
instructs me to...

"Open wide, Rafe!  Clean my finger."

I have long since lost my squeamishness. After all, I have learned to take
another man's cock into my mouth and to suckle it. So Master's finger isn't
all that different. Yet it is repulsive to take the finger, that just
moments ago was buried deep within my anus, into in my mouth and to suck it
clean. And it is also demeaning.

But I have no alternative other than to obey and I suck vigorously on
Master's finger until he is satisfied. And I must have pleased him. He
removes his finger from my mouth and once again, he tells me that I am
a......

"Good boy!"

My Master continues his examination of me. He cradles my cock in his hands
and fondly strokes it to maintain my erection. Suddenly, almost as though
he spies something amiss, Master leans forward to examine it more
closely. His finger moves around the circumference of the shaft tracing out
the almost invisible mark of my circumcision. As he peers intently at it,
my heart misses a beat. Has Master found some fault - a physical defect -
that will detract from my overall appearance and lessen my value to him?
But I am worrying needlessly and his comment to Claymore Jackson puts my
mind at ease.

"Claymore, I have to say the bloodless circumcision seems to work
well. Why, I can hardly see where Rafe's foreskin was attached to his
cock."

"Guy, I'm all for it! It's far preferable than the scalpel. Cutting with
the knife is messy and traumatic for the slave. It leaves him bleeding and
sore for days and puts him out of action. You lose his work output as he
recovers and there's always the risk of infection. The former owners
preferred to use the knife and I argued against it - unsuccessfully I'm
afraid."

"Why was that?"

"Tradition, I'm afraid, Guy. Old Monsieur Barrois was very traditional in
his outlook. He preferred to do things as they'd always been done.  And I'm
afraid there wasn't time for his heir to change much before he became a
slave. But I bet Rafe is glad you dispensed with tradition and opted for a
more humane method of skinning him. Isn't that so boy?"

Indeed I was very glad that Master had chosen to skin me
non-surgically. True, there was some pain as the veterinarian fitted the
rings trapping the foreskin between them and cutting off its blood
supply. And there was discomfort and irritation as the flesh slowly
atrophied before dropping off some nine days later. But this was preferable
- at least to my mind - to the sharp agony of the scalpel. And as I answer
the chief overseer's question, I am indeed glad that Master allowed the vet
to "humanely" skin me.

"Yes Sir!"

""Then show your gratitude to you Master, Rafe.  Thank him for his kindness
to you."

"Thank you Master!"

My gratitude to my Master is heartfelt but Claymore isn't satisfied and he
admonishes me.

"Come on slave! You can do better than that. Drop to your knees and thank
you Master properly, boy."

I obey instantly. I fall to my hands and knees and crawl to my Master to
express my gratitude to him by kissing his feet.

"Thank you, Master! Thank you for your goodness to me."

I remain crouching at his feet until he gives me permission to stand.

Master has finished his examination of my body and he orders me to stand at
display before him. He maintains his silence and as his eyes scrutinise me,
I wonder what he is thinking. Have I been weighed in the balance and found
wanting. My mind is a whirlpool of self-doubt. Have I failed the test and
will he decide to leave me at La Forˆt for a longer period of
training. My body visibly quakes at the thought of this.

As a slave, I have long ceased to believe in a higher being.  For slaves
there is no benevolent god who watches over them. We are abandoned to the
living hell of our servitude and our only redemption is a merciful
death. And yet I find myself praying - silently and earnestly - that Master
will take me back to the city with him.

Then, to my immense relief and overwhelming joy, he tells Claymore.

"Claymore, I'm returning to the city tomorrow morning and I'll take Rafe
back with me. He can run alongside Norge on the return trip. Would you see
he is made ready for me please?"

"Certainly, Guy! The slave's as ready as he'll ever be. I know you were
having a new, two pony conveyance made.  Is it ready?"

"It's ready and waiting, Claymore. I took delivery of it about a month ago
for when Rafe had finished his training. And I have had several sets of
matching harness especially made for Norge and Rafe.  Hopefully, they'll be
in harness and pulling my new trap the day after tomorrow."

"They should cut a fine sight, Guy. I wish I was there to see them."

"Oh, don't worry Claymore! You'll get to see them whenever I visit La
Forˆt."

"Good! I look forward to seeing them running together."

I am overjoyed and my wide smile conveys my happiness to Norge who is
standing quietly to one side alongside Jake. If it's possible, his smile is
broader than mine and shows his happiness at our Master's decision to take
me back to the city. But I see the sadness in Jake's face as he hears Norge
will be leaving in the morning. Still, they will have tonight together and
it would be selfish of me to deny them this last opportunity to make
love. The future is unknown to all three of us. When next we return to La
Forˆt, will Norge and I be stabled together or will we be housed in
separate stalls.  That decision won't be ours to make. It will depend on
Claymore Jackson's mood of the moment.

Norge isn't the only one to notice my happiness. Master notices it too.

"Claymore, I have to compliment you on Rafe's transformation. It is
astonishing. He surpasses all my expectations."

"Thank you Guy! But I can't take all the credit for him. Most of that is
due to young Conn here. He has worked assiduously with Rafe for the whole
six months he's been with us. The slave you see before you was shaped by
Conn. I think the credit should go to him."

"Then, thank you Conn. Rafe is a credit to you. But tell me; was he hard to
train?"

"No Sir! Really he was easy. He was a bit surly for a start but I soon
whipped him into shape. Right from the outset, I let him know who was in
charge. And a few strokes of my whip helped him understand his place. I've
got to say he is now a very docile, hardworking slave. In a way, I'm sorry
to see him go. He is a good-natured boy and does as he's told. I've grown
quite fond of him. I'm going to miss dumbass."

"Dumbass?"

"Sorry Sir! That was my pet name for him. I never called him Rafe. I called
him dumbass the first day he arrived here and I was driving him and the
other slave over to the forge for branding. It kinda stuck. Sorry Sir!"

"Don't apologise, Conn," my Master chuckles. "I like it ... dumbass
indeed. I'll have to remember it.  But tell me Conn; was he really stupid
enough to warrant you calling him dumbass?"

"No Sir! Rafe was no more stupid than any other of your white slaves.
Proper control and the whip helped him to learn. And to his credit, the boy
was a good student. He learned what was required of him easily and
quickly. "

Once I would've been embarrassed at this exchange between Master and Sir
Conn. Now I am indifferent to their sarcasm.

"Claymore! I'm very impressed with the great job that young Conn has done
with my slave. I would like to discuss Conn's future with you. I'm
recommending he be promoted and given a pay rise commensurate with his
promotion. Conn shows great enthusiasm and initiative. He is a young man
with a bright future. I'd like to see him work as your right-hand man. I've
had it in my mind to have some one assist you in duties which I know are
quite onerous.  I think Conn is the man for the job.  Would you agree? How
do you feel about that?"

"Guy! What can I say? I would welcome some assistance - and thank you for
your consideration. And I can think of no one I'd rather work with than
Conn. As you so rightly said, he shows enthusiasm and initiative. I would
add to that a dedication to his work. I know of no other overseer who works
as hard as he does to get the best out of your slaves. His control of them
is absolute. All the slaves fear him and work hard to impress him."

"Good, then it's settled. Conn will be promoted to your assistant and paid
a salary to reflect his new status. And Conn - there'll be a sizeable bonus
for you to express my thanks for the great work you have done with Rafe."

Sir Conn is taken by surprise. He'd not expected such fulsome praise from
Master and Claymore. Nor had he expected his sudden promotion, the salary
increase or the bonus for his supervision of me.  His elevation over the
heads of so many older supervisors is testimony to his considerable
talents. I am ideally placed to appreciate these talents. After all, I have
been instrumental in shaping the young supervisor. He'd had me to practise
on.

There is some irony in all this for me. As Sir Conn's confidence grew by
the day, mine had diminished correspondingly. Ours was a complementary
relationship. We depended on one another and we each had something to give
the other.  For my part, I gave him the confidence and experience to become
a competent slave overseer. And he had trained me to be the slave that I
have become and gave me an understanding of what I really am.

Lucien Barrois had chosen well the day he'd agreed to employ Conn, the
young, inexperienced apprentice overseer. And he could never have foreseen
the consequences of that fateful decision.

Sir Conn's comments to my Master that he had grown fond of me and that he
would miss me are unexpected. But I am strangely moved by them. Ours had
been a one-on-one relationship and yet it has been an uneven one. After
all, he has been my de facto master for these past six months and I have
been his slave. And to his credit, Sir Conn had always kept me aware of the
gulf that existed between us. I was never allowed to forget that I was the
slave and he was the master. And if I ever did forget my proper place, Sir
Conn was always quick to remind me of my true status. His whip, applied
with youthful vigour, was quick to correct any errant behaviour on my part.

And there were moments of something akin to affection between us. Those
stolen moments when, in some secluded spot, I pleasured Sir Conn, did
connect us. Once I'd overcome my initial reluctance to take his cock in my
mouth, I enjoyed our clandestine encounters.  Eventually, they were to
become mutually enjoyable and in all honesty, I gave myself over completely
to pleasuring my young handler.

But perhaps the moments I valued most were those when, kneeling at his
feet, he would soothingly stroke my body or pat my head and declare his
satisfaction with me by telling me that I was a "good boy".

Were Sir Conn's actions patronising? For a free man the answer is yes. But
for a slave, stripped of his humanity and bereft of human kindness, Sir
Conn's touch and his words were balm to my troubled soul.

At this moment, as we separate to begin new chapters of our lives, I
realise that I too have a fondness for Sir Conn. And I rejoice in my
Master's recognition of him and within me, I wish him a silent farewell.

My Master's decision to take me back to the city lifts my spirits. Finally,
I am to bid farewell to La Foret and all its horrors. It is ironic, that
the place I'd once loved with such passion had become a place of suffering
for me.

Over the many years since its establishment, the plantation has grown and
matured into a place of great beauty and the casual observer would also see
it as a peaceful haven for its owners. And as Lucien Barrois I had always
seen it as such.

But La Foret's beauty obscures its true ugliness and its air of peace hides
the unspeakable horrors of slavery.  The calm of the mansion house and its
gardens mask the groans of the slaves toiling in the distant fields and the
melodic sounds of birdsong in the treetops drown out the sounds of the
overseers' whips.

And as the slave, Rafe I was exposed to the unimaginable pain and suffering
of La Foret's slave population. How glad I am to be leaving all this behind
me.


                                    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


Six months ago, I began work as a slave on the wheel which supplies water
to the gardens and fountains of the mansion's extensive grounds.

This water-wheel has been in existence ever since my de Barrois ancestor
first put down roots, built the original part of the house and established
its surrounding gardens. Today's water-wheel isn't the original one. That
has long disappeared and has been replaced several times over the
intervening years until this latest one which has been in existence for
nearly half a century.

This latest wheel was built by my grandfather long before my birth. My
grandfather had been a lifelong environmentalist and he deplored the use of
machinery when slaves could perform the tasks just as easily, cheaper and
with less impact on the environment.

He was also fascinated with older forms of technology and often used the
ideas behind them - modified to suit his requirements - rather than buy
costly, fuel guzzling and polluting machines. That is why, even under my
management, slaves replaced tractors to pull the ploughs, harrow the fields
and sow the crops at La Foret.

Grandfather had used teams of draft slaves to haul the wagons and pull his
trap rather than use horses. He always had a great fondness for horses and
he kept a stable of thoroughbreds on which he lavished his care and
attention. They were his pets and their sole purpose was to serve as living
ornaments for his pleasure.  He saw them as beautiful creatures whose
nobility precluded them from any forms of work that could be performed by a
slave.

As Lucien Barrois, I have seen my Grandfather's original plans for his new
water- wheel and I recall how as a young boy he took me to see it in
operation for the first time.  As we watched some wretched, unnamed slave
turn the wheel, Grandfather had told me of the water-wheel's history.

He told me its origins were lost in the mists of a far distant past that
had belonged to the ancient Greeks. Grandfather attributed its invention to
the civilisation that had given us so much. I'm not sure if everything he
told me that day stayed with me. I vaguely remember him using words like
democracy, science, medicine, mathematics, poetry, drama, theatre, rational
thought and legitimised slavery. But these were all concepts way beyond my
boyish comprehension.

And anyway, my attention was focused on the naked slave as he strained and
sweated to keep the massive wheel turning at the required speed. Before
that day, I had seen our slaves labouring in the distance but this was the
first occasion I came close to a slave as he toiled and I was fascinated by
the spectacle of a naked, young man working as a beast of burden. I noted
the stress the wheel placed on his body and the stretching of his muscles
and sinews to almost breaking point.  I listened to his laboured breathing
and I watched as he was tormented by swarms of flying insects attracted to
his body by his smell and his sweat.  I watched the twitching and the
shaking of his body as vainly, he tried to dislodge them and find some
relief from their annoying bites and stings. And I flinched as the
overseer's whip cut across his striped back with the order to "settle
down".

That day, I became aware of the magnificence of the naked, male body in all
its stressed beauty. I was enthralled by the perfection of its form and
this enchantment has remained with me ever since.

Although distracted by the slave, I paid some attention to what Grandfather
had to say about his wheel. He told me how it had been invented by the
ancient Greeks and how it had been enthusiastically adopted and improved by
the Romans who had carried to all the arid parts of their vast empire. He
mentioned how even today its variations can be found in Spain, parts of
Mexico and the Middle East.

He told me that he'd looked at the different forms of water-wheels in use
and how he'd researched their suitability for use on the irrigation
channels at La Foret. Finally, he'd opted for the Middle Eastern
water-wheel known as the noria wheel.

In its purest form, the noria is a single, vertical wheel with buckets or
earthenware vessels fastened to its outer circumference for lifting water
from a river or stream and delivering it into an aqueduct or water
channel. In the Middle-East, the noria is a stand-alone wheel usually
installed in a fast flowing river the current of which provides the motive
power to keep the wheel turning.

But as was his habit, Grandfather adapted the noria to suit his special
needs.  He fitted a second horizontal wheel in the form of a capstan that
engaged with the noria's axle through a series of cogs causing it to turn
and lift the water from the irrigation channel and into the aqueduct that
fed the reservoir. And the motive power for the capstan would be supplied
by slaves.

He told me he incorporated the capstan because it gave him greater control
over the lifting of the water into the reservoir. He felt using a slave to
control the speed of the wheel was more efficient than relying on the
uncertainty of variable water flows. A slave's speed can be adjusted to
meet the current requirements and regulated with a whip.

So successful was this first wheel that it became the prototype for all
other water-wheels used on La Foret. And it remains so
today. Progressively, Grandfather replaced all the existing, obsolete
wheels with the new noria type and he even installed additional, new ones
to keep the precious life-giving water flowing constantly through the
intricate pattern of irrigation canals and channels.

If my memory is correct, I think there are some thirty plus wheels in
operation throughout the plantation. The larger wheel s have circumferences
that require twenty slaves to keep them turning.  These are the master
wheels that lift the water from the broad river flowing along La Foret's
northern boundary and deposit it into the canals. These wheels never stop;
they operate twenty- four hours a day for all 365 days of the year.

These are "punishment" wheels; the slaves who man them are the plantation's
troublemakers, the intransigent and the disobedient. Those slaves condemned
to the wheel live in situ - in strong metal cages- and they work in shifts
of six hours labour and six hours rest.  Once a slave is assigned to a
place on the wheel, there is no redemption for him.  He works until the
overseers' whip can no longer coax any further labour out of him. Once the
last vestige of strength has been wrung from him, the slave is discarded
and humanely disposed of.  Life on these massive wheels is short and brutal
and quite rightly they are greatly feared by La Foret's slaves.

The other wheels are smaller in circumference and strategically placed
along the canals to keep the water flowing. They vary in size; the smallest
require only one slave to operate them the others are manned by two, three
or four slaves depending on their water lifting capacity.

The one I was condemned to labour on is the original prototype - the one
adopted and modified by my Grandfather - and it requires the muscle-power
of only one slave.

That first morning, six long months ago, I was chained to the capstan and
it was a combination of my muscle power and Sir Conn's whip that kept the
wheel turning and the water flowing.
