~A.N. So, I don't want to start at the way begining of this story. To sum up the beginning, Averriiyon was sold as an "undesirable" slave to a sorcerer named Luscient. The boy's considered undesirable because of the stones he has on his wrists, feet, forehead, and chest.~

What's in This World?
Luscient woke up Averriiyon, caressing the boy's round face to rouse him from his rest. "Come, my dear," he crooned, "I'm having guests tonight and I want to show you off." Averriiyon awoke, nodding to his master and changing into his servantry clothes that consisted of a black corsette and black pants.

They walked out into the greeting room, Luscient sitting in his chair while Averriiyon kneeled besides him. Yes, the boy was trained nicely. Luscient's hand massaged the poor child's head, making him close his eyes in pleasure. A knock on the door disrupted them.

"Come in, my friends," Luscient called, throwing his guests a dashing grin.

There was only two of them, both of them as tall but not as handsome as Luscient. But they were handsome. One of them had long, flowing brown hair with black streaks and red eyes. The other, less muscular and shorter, had cropped blonde hair with sky blue eyes. Both had a slight tan. They sat across from Luscient and Averriiyon, smiling at the two of them. Averriiyon wasn't allowed to make eye contact with any of them. He kept his head low.

After about an hour or so of meaningless havering, the brown-haired one, named Alexion, finally asked about Averriiyon.

"You said he was exotic," Alexion complained. "Yes, he is beautiful, but why did he cost so little? He's be at least 80, maybe 90 acrose, not the little 12 you got him for!"

Luscient smirked, asking Averriiyon politely to stand up infront of him. The slight boy did so, standing before his master with his head bowed. The sorcerer grabbed the boy roughly by the shoulders, tugging at the top strings of the corsette. He undid the top of the cothing, spinning the boy around to face their guests.

The blonde, Shea, gasped. "What a deformity!" He cried, standing up to touch the petruding crystal. "It's beautiful," he breathed, "absolutely errotic!"

"That's not all," Luscient purred, thrusting foreward Averriiyon's wrist. Both Shea and Alexion apraised the site.

"Where else are these gorgious stones?" Alexion asked, caressing the boy's wrists. Luscient pulled back the boy's bangs, exposing the crystal there.

Another hour of total humiliation and discomfort followed for Averriiyon. He'd always hated people to look at his crystals. They made him feel like he didn't belong... that he was a freak. Now, these three men were gawking over the very things that'd made him a sevant in the first place. He wanted to just crawl into a cave and die.

Finally, Alexion and Shea left, leaving a broken Averriiyon and a prideful Luscient. Once the guests were gone, the little boy stopped being to subserviant. He pushed his master away from him, glaring at him with misty eyes.

"How dare you," he tried to growl, though he was choking back tears. "You know I hate these... these... monstrosities, and yet you sell them off like candy! How much of a spectacle I'd already felt but now...," he trailed off, shaking his head as tears unwillingly slid down his face.

Luscient felt guilty. For the first time in his enlongated life, he felt guilty. To see this small boy break from his heartlessness... he wanted to just collect the boy into his arms and coddle him. And so he tried. But Averriiyon kept pushing him off, trying to distance himself from the master. Finally he gave up, falling into Luscient's arms.

"I'm so sorry," Luscient whispered, holding his servant close. "Please, my dear, I beg of you, forgive me. I was a self-centered fool. Please..."

And so, Averriiyon forgave him somehow, kissing his master's lips to show it. "You are forgiven, Master," he whispered, planting a longer kiss to Luscient. He gladdly complied, kissing Averriiyon back while holding him close. When they broke apart, Luscient smiled.

"My love, no one will ever hurt you again. I promise."
