CHAPTER 28
TWENTYFOURTH NIGHT
The Skilled Assistant

Lorenzo and Poletto dried each other, lingering with this pretext on the
other's body with long, soft caresses. Then they climbed on the bed,
between the freshly laundered sheets.

"What a good sensation, after we only just washed, to feel such fresh
sheets, don't you think, my Poletto?"

"Yes, it is almost like a caress."

"So now I don't need to caress you any more."

"Oh no, master, I prefer your caresses, of course! Why do you always
pull my leg so?"

"I'm only joking... only out of affection."

Poletto caressed the man's strong and wide  chest, then leaned over to
kiss it, lingering on the nipples already hard for pleasure. With a hand
he went down to caress his turgid member. Lorenzo closed his eyes,
enjoying those attentions.

"Master, you're not falling asleep, now?"

"There is no such danger - you are awakening all my senses, all my body.
Go on..."

"Yes, sure. But why don't you start telling me the continuation of your
story?"

"Little is left, at this point. We are approaching to when I had the
luck of discovering you. Just possibly a couple more interesting facts.

One happened when I was thirtythree. I was by then well known in Venice
and all the doors of the most important mansions were open to me. It so
happened that, when the Very Serene named the second count-captain of
the town of Spalato, the patrician sent to call me. He asked me how much
it would cost him to hire the most beautiful of my ships to carry him
and his retinue to Spalato for the official installation in office.

I answered him, "It will cost you nothing, if  you can just get from the
Very Serene the authorization for me to open a warehouse in Spalato and
to freely dock my ships there."

He said he was almost certain to get the concession for me, and so in
fact it happened. I then decked out my brig, making the sails with the
colors of the count-captain and hoisted his flags. When he embarked,
there was a very beautiful ceremony, then we sailed. I was accompanying
him to take possession of my new warehouse and leave my trustworty men
there to manage it.

When we reached Spalato, there was another ceremony to welcome the new
count-captain, who went in great pomp to the palace assigned to him. On
the following days there would be all the official ceremonies, the
handing over of the powers and a host of parties. Of course I was one of
those regularly invited.

The first nights I slept on my brig, but I bought an elegant mansion and
had it furnished. It had been the property of a Hungarian officer until
Spalato was given back to the Very Serene, and was uninhabitated.
Already on the fourth night I was able to sleep in my new mansion.

I was preparing my clothes for the party on the day after, when I saw
that something had been poured on the little trunk containing them,
penetrated inside and all my best clothes were irremediably stained. I
immediately sent one of my men to look for a tailor, asking him to come
with his most beautiful fabrics and to immediately make me new suits.

The tailor came with his assistant. I chose the fabrics I liked best and
while the tailor was going to his shop to fetch everything he needed, he
left his assistant to take my measurements. The boy, who seemed to be
around twenty-two, twenty-three, was rather nice, but I just made a
light thought about him, as I was already lost in my thoughts. But,
being touched all over my body while he was taking my measurements, soon
made me slightly aroused.

The boy was surely accustomed to that and seemed not to care. The tailor
came back with another assistant and they at once started to cut and to
sew, all three. We had decided they would work there, in my house, so
that they could do all the needed fittings without losing time and I
could meanwhile carry on the with my business. That was the best way to
be sure I got the first suit ready in time for the ceremonies of the
following morning. Once in a while the assistant came to the room I was
working in, to make me try a piece or another so that, to spare time, I
had undressed and was wearing only a kind of light silk dressing gown.

When he tried on me the breeches and the codpiece, the boy said, "We
don't need to stuff the codpiece, most 'lustrious, you already have
enough of your own. You are well equipped in this part, I see. Forgive
me if I have to touch you there also, but I have to be certain that the
little piece fits properly on your sundries."

"Yes, but if you continue to touch me so, boy, you will awake it."

"So much the better, sir, so we will be sure that the piece contains it
properly, without dangerous surprises."

No tailors ever had made me such speeches, but I thought that after all
the boy was not wrong. Thus I let him carry on.

>From time to time the boy was coming to test on me one piece of clothing
or another and each time, even though he touched me in a really
professional way, he had the effect of causing me a light, agreable
erection.

Finally the tailors finished my first suit, the one I wanted to wear on
the following morning, therefore they went back to their shop to start
to prepare the other suits I had ordered.

The day after, with my new clothes, I went to the ceremony of the powers
handing-over and of the installation in office. Afterwards there was a
sumptuous reception. All of a sudden I noticed that one of the servants
who were passing with the wine jugs was the tailor's assistant.

Astounded, I stopped him and said, "But you are the tailor's assistant!
What are you doing here, now?"

"Sorry, your excellency, but I don't know you. I am just a servant, I
don't know what you are talking about."

"Come on! The voice is the same too, and the hair... yesterday afternoon
you were at my house with the tailor."

"I was here to prepare for today, your excellency."

Feeling confused, I didn't insist. Then I thought they could have been
twins, the likeness was so perfect.

That evening, when the tailor's assistant came to my place again for the
fitting of another suit, I asked him if by chance he had a twin brother.

"No sir. Why are you asking me, most 'lustrious?"

I explained him about my encounter.

He smiled and said, "It must have been just a coincidence, most
'lustrious. I am the only son in my family."

The day after there was a reception in the mansion of one of the
patricians of Spalato. There were several guests. When we sit down to
eat, an elegantly dressed young man sat near me. I looked at him - he
was the spitting image of the tailor's assistant! Totally bewildered, I
asked him who he was.

"My name is Pino of Margiàn, at your service." Also the voice was the
same!

I then asked him, "And, pray, what do you do for a living?"

"Nothing. My late father left me sufficient not to have to worry."

"Also the greatest riches, if not taken care of, sooner or later are
reduced to nothing. Don't you care about your future? And that of your
posterity?"

"No, I am enjoying my life. Anyway I don't want to beget children. Do
you think my choice is so wrong?"

"Well... each one makes the choices he think best..."

"Do you have children?"

"No. Are you of Spalato, sir Pino?"

"Yes. Will you stay for a long time here in the city?"

"Possibly a couple of weeks."

"Only?"

"The time needed to set up my new warehouse."

We continued to talk of this and that but, the more I was looking at
him, the more I felt confused and curious for that extraordinary
likeness. However I could surely not ask him if he was the tailor's
assistant - I would risk to make myself ridiculous. The young man's
company was agreable and I started to desire to get to know him better
and also, in case, to manage to make love with him. But every time I was
casting bait, he seemed to carefully avoid it.

In the afternoon the tailor's assistant came to my house with another
suit to try on me. Apart from his clothes, he was identical to the other
two boys.

Thus, all of a sudden, profiting of the fact we were alone, I seized his
wrists and told him, "You now tell me who you really are!"

"The tailor's assistant, most 'lustrious."

"Aren't you Pino of Margiàn?"

"Most 'lustrious, the Margiàn is Spalato mountain, and I am no pine, but
a human being. Why are you making fun of me?"

"It is not possible that in three days I met three identical people!
You, a servant and a rich young man! Who are you, and why all these
disguises? And in any case, what is your name?"

"I am Martino of Giorgio. Leave me, most 'lustrious, you are hurting me.
Please, leave me."

I was continuing to hold him vigorously by his wrists and had pushed him
against a wall of the room, keeping him immobilized with all the weight
of my body. Thus, at that point, I felt like a darting between his legs
- the boy was becoming aroused and was having a conspicuous erection!
The awareness of that made me too excited at once. I then pushed my body
further against his so that he too could feel my erection pushing
against him.

His eyes opened wide and looked at me with an astounded expression.
Keeping him always still with the weight of my body and with one hand, I
lowered the other between his thighs and fingered his firm turgidity. He
shuddered but didn't move away his eyes from mine. I again fingered him.

Then I said him, "What is your real name, handsome little male?"

"Martino..."

"But you were the servant at the ceremony the day before yesterday."

"Yes..."

"And the Pino of Margiàn of yesterday?"

"Also..."

"Why all these disguises, this game?"

"To be able to see you. I noticed you when you disembarked and I at once
desired to be near you, to know you... But I didn't know what to do to
be noticed by you. Then, you called my father for your new suits... and
I understood that luck was turning towards me, was giving me a hand... I
used some clothes we were preparing at my father's shop, and..."

"Now you are near me... it was not what you wanted?"

"But you are hurting me so... and yet I like feeling how your body is
shuddering, searching for mine." He said in a low voice.

"What do you want me to do with you now, boy?"

"Take me. Make me yours. This is my dream since I first saw you. If you
liked how I was touching you all along during the fittings, you will
like even more how I touch you, if you let me do..."

"Do you want to make love with me?"

"If the most 'lustrious wants to bestow me this grace..."

"But would it not have been simpler to let me understand it in another
way?"

"When I was touching you during the fittings, even though it was clear
that it didn't annoy you, you never encouraged me. I was afraid not to
interest you... therefore I tried to arouse your curiosity in the way
you know."

"And you succeeded. Undress, now, boy."

"My father is waiting me back at the shop for this suit. I would like
having more time, to do everything at ease... Would you like to come
with me, tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow? Where?"

"Tomorrow it is Sunday and we don't work. After the morning ceremonies
at the church... On the mount Margiàn, amongst the olive trees and
cypresses, there is the small house of my forefathers. It is small, but
there nobody will disturb us. In the house enclosure, amongst trees and
bushes, I can spread an old but soft bear fur... and there I can give
myself to you."

"You always take your conquests there?"

"I was going there with my lover, up to three years ago..."

"And why don't you take him there any more?"

"He was the Hungarian captain. He had to go away when Spalato was given
back to the Very Serene,"

"And why didn't you follow him?"

"He was married... he didn't want me to..."

"I will let you go now, Martino, but we will meet tomorrow. After the
mass there is the lunch at the count-captain palace, but I willingly
forgo it... But now, before you leave, I would like a little
anticipation of what you are going to give me tomorrow."

The boy smiled, nodded, then kissed me straight in the mouth while with
both hands he untied my breeches. When he had freed my pole, already
very hard and erect, he knelt down and, while lightly massaging it, he
started to tease it with skilled tongue strokes and sucks. Then he
caressed it again and stood up.

With a sweet smile he told me, "Are you contented with this small
sample?"

"Yes, Martino, but now I am longing for tomorrow."

"I will not miss the opportunity, be sure. And I will take something to
eat together, when we are there..."

The day after he was waiting for me in front of the cathedral. He lead
me out of the city walls and we climbed the Margiàn. We soon reached a
small house hidden amongst the trees. He took from one room the bear fur
and unrolled it in the little neglected garden, under the sun rays.

Then he said, with a kind of happy sigh, "Here we are. I am yours. Do
anything you want with me."

"Undress then, Martino."

He complied, slowly, with languid moves, and the sight of his handsome
body gradually unveiling before me, aroused me very much.

I asked him, "What did you do, with your Hungarian?"

"He liked sucking me until he made it erect and slippery, then he asked
me to ride him with all my strength, until I emptied inside his soft
ass. Then he made me suck it until he flooded my mouth with all his
abundant and tasty cream."

"And you, nobody rode you?"

"When I was I boy, yes. But he was not interested in riding my ass."

"I, on the contrary, would really like putting all my rod inside you..."

"As I told you, you can do anything you want with me."

Meanwhile I had undressed. I started to tour around him touching and
teasing him and the boy soon was all quivering  with pleasure. I pulled
him down with me on the soft fur.

"Prepare my shaft, Martino, while I will carefully prepare your little
hole, so that I can then slip into you and duly ride you..."

We laid on our sides and while he was devoting himself to my member, I
had him spread his legs and pushed my head between them so to reach his
little hole with my tongue. I could feel his pole shivering against my
chest. I licked and teased it for a long time until I felt him quiver
all over his body. Then, slipping out my tool from his mouth, I turned
around, made him fold his legs against his chest and sank between his
spread little buttocks, inside his throbbing and slippery little hole,
sinking down, down to the bottom.

He emitted a long moan of  pleasure and decidedly pushed himself against
me to be penetrated even more deeply. Keeping his legs well spread and
pointing upwards, I started to piston inside him, at first slowly, then
with growing vigour. Martino was accompanying each of my strokes with
moans of  enjoyment and tossed his head left and right, his eyes shut,
seized by pleasure, with a blissful expression on his youthful and
handsome face. I was gently pinching his nipples that I had discovered
to be particularly sensitive, and enjoyed that fast and strong ride,
feeling the warm and agreeable caresses of the sun on my back.

Martino started to beat his meat rapidly, and his anus began to
palpitate around my rod, like, but better than, his skillful lips. When
I felt we were both at one step from orgasm, I stopped and slowly
slipped away from him. Martino looked at me with wide eyes, glossy with
lust.

In a sorrowful tone, he just asked, "Why?"

"Let's now calm down a little, boy. I will start again in a short time,
but I don't want to make this most pleasurable encounter finish too
soon. In a while it will be you to fuck me, but we have to not yet come.
Then I will take you again and we will alternate so, until we will have
no more force to hold back."

"I like your program very much, Lorenzo. You are a fantastic lover. Do
you have a steady boy, in Venice?"

"No, I have nobody, in this moment."

"It is a pity you have to go away..."

"We can meet again, in these days."

"Any time you want. I madly like how you fuck..."

"Yes, I am aware of it. But now, prepare yourself to take me. I want to
feel all your nice stake inside me. Ride me how you were doing with your
Hungarian."

"Then go on all fours. Do you know that you really have a beautiful ass,
Lorenzo?"

"You like it?"

"I like everything of you, you are a delightful male." He said with a
sigh.

He thrusted it in my hole and pushed it slowly inside, then seized my
shoulders and started to vigorously ride me. I closed my eyes to better
enjoy his fiery assaults. His stake, not very big but long and strong,
was slipping in and out of me in a delightful rhythm. He was withdrawing
slowly and plunging back into me strongly. When we were again at one
step from the supreme enjoyement, he stopped and parted from me.

"Do you like me, Lorenzo?"

"Yes, very much. When did you make love with a male for the first time?"

"I was fourteen. I was already working at the shop with my father. And I
was already feeling attracted by men, but I didn't know that it was
possible to make love, and even less how to do it. During the fittings I
had simply become aware that by touching a client in a certain way, I
could give him an erection and this gave me pleasure. Thus, once, while
I was doing the fittings to a Hungarian nobleman passing through the
city, I provoked an erection in him. He then simply pulled it out and
told me to touch it.

"He asked me if I liked it. I nodded, thrilled. He then made me kneel in
front of him, aimed straight at my lips and made me open the mouth then,
seizing my head with both hands, he slipped all of it inside and started
to fuck my mouth. I liked that very much. Then he ordered me to drink. I
didn't understand what he meant, until from that pole his cream gushed
copiously out. That first time I found the taste odd, but not
unpleasant. Later I got used to it and even became fond of it.

"That noble man, after two or three times he contented himself with
fucking my mouth, once asked me to go to his room, made me undress and
there, on his bed, he took my virginity. I was more and more
enthusiastic about those discoveries and wanted even more of them. But
he had to leave so he introduced me to one of his friends, a Hungarian
official of the governor. This man also had a friend, so that often we
were doing threesomes. While his friend was penetrating my back, the
official sucked me - it was really pleasurable. Then it was the official
to take me, and I sucked his friend.

"Then, one day, when I was seventeen, always while doing the fitting of
clothes, I met the Hungarian captain and so I became his lover. For the
first time it was for me to penetrate a man's ass. I enjoyed that very
much too. But then the Hungarians had to leave and the Venitians came
here again.

"Once I managed to do it with a ship captain who took me on board. He
called two of his sailors and shut all four of us in his cabin. That
time I had to give satisfaction to all three of them. They alternated,
one in my little ass, the other in my mouth, the third to suck me or to
be penetrated by me... They kept me with them all afternoon long and
when at evening I went back home, I almost wasn't able to stand up...
but I was really satisfied.

"I then had some adventures with one of the copyists of the former
count-captain, then with a young magistrate of the Very Serene, then
also with the brother of monsignor archbishop, who was passing here in
Spalato, and also with the son of the surgeon, each time he comes home
from the university, as he now studies in Bologna. And now also with
you, Lorenzo. As you can see, I don't lack esperience."

"No, you really don't. That is why you are so good at making love, then.
But now I want to take you again. How do you want to have it, this time,
Martino? Which is the position you like best?"

"Any postion, as long as you put all of it inside me. I like feeling it
well inside, tossing like a laddle in a cauldron. I like opening wide to
receive you."

I willingly contented him. We alternated thus, I don't know how many
times, always without coming, until we both were so excited that we felt
it would have been impossible to still control ourselves. Then, at his
suggestion, we took it in each other mouths and finally discharged our
rushing seed stream that we gulped down in long intoxicating droughts.

As long as I remained in Spalato, we met almost every day, in his little
house or in my mansion. It was really good."

"And later, you never saw him again, master?"

"Just once. In fact, the third time I went to Spalto, I heard he was
gone with the surgeon's son to work in Apulia... Surely they are
lovers..."

"Was he very beautiful, the tailor's young son?"

"No, not very beautiful, but certainly pleasant."

"And was he very skillful at making love, master?"

"Skillful enough, but not as much as you are. I know that this is what
you want to hear from me, am I right?"

Poletto blushed but nodded. Lorenzo embraced him and started to kiss
him. The boy pushed himself against him and started to brush his
erection against that of his master. Lorenzo then sat astride the boy's
chest and presented him his hard rod, raising Poletto's head with a
hand.

The boy opened his mouth and received all of it while with one hand he
caressed the chest and the belly of the man and with the other his back
and buns. Lorenzo reacheded back his hand, between the boy's buttocks
and started to tease his little hole. He liked looking at Poletto's face
expressing the intensity of pleasure, he liked feeling and seeing his
rod slipping in and out of those willing lips, from that warm,
welcoming, well opened mouth. He liked looking the adoring and grateful
eyes of the boy who was smiling at him, filled with pleasure.

He gently pulled it out from that greedy mouth, slipped with his butt
along the boy's body, knelt between his legs and folded them against his
chest, making his feet lean on his shoulders. Poletto seized the man's
rod with a hand and guided its turgid tip on his hole filled with yen.
When he felt it was starting to dilate his hole, to penetrate it, he
moved his hands on the man's chest, caressing it. Their faces were one
span apart, and each was spying the pleasure glitter in the other's
eyes. Their bodies were trembing, while Lorenzo was slowly sinking in
that tender flesh, pushing with continuous and determined gentleness.

"Ah, my dear master, how much I like feeling you inside me!"

"And I like feeling being desired so much by you, my dear Poletto. I
love sinking inside your sweet butter-like little ass. I like how you
express your desire and pleasure with your big eyes like those of a
pricket in heat."

"Master, while you fuck me, can you also kiss me, please?"

"Sure, my sweet boy, sure!"

When he was all inside him, he leaned on his body holding him tight at
his sides and kissed him. Then, moving only his pelvis, he started to
thrust in and out inside him in a mix of gentleness and passion. Poletto
was caressing the nape of his neck and his back, enjoying the weight of
the man on his body. Both were intent on giving and receiving pleasure.
The boy could feel his hard member pressed and massaged between their
bellies. Then felt Lorenzo leaning more against him, embracing him more
strongly, penetrating him deeper, until the man discharged inside him
with a long moan, trembling for the intensity of the delight. Lorenzo
abandoned himself on top of the boy, panting.

Then Poletto slipped away from under him, licked for a long time his
back then went lower to lick between his buttocks. Lorenzo spread his
legs to give him an easier access. Poletto knelt between them, directed
his straight and quivering pole between the man's buttocks and when he
felt he was starting to enter him, let himself go bodily, sinking
completely inside him. Lorenzo pushed up with his rump to make him enter
more. The boy slipped his hands under the man's body, reached his
nipples that started to titillate, while biting and teasing his earlobe
with his tongue. Then, vigorously embracing that beloved body, he
started to move his pelvis up and down. In that position Lorenzo
buttocks were held tight and this increased the boy's pleasure.

"Oh, dear master, how good it is!"

"For me too, Poletto. Go stronger, come on!"

When finally Poletto also reached the pleasure climax, Lorenzo sweetly
whispered him, "Now it's my turn again... I am still full of desire for
you, do you know?" and soon they started to make love again with
unchanged passion and desire.
