I Scored Myself A Mate

"Fuck, yes" Ares moaned as he felt Vines finish inside him. He relaxed his body and fell in his embrace, feeling the warm water of the bathtub surround him. 

"You are so pretty Ares." Vines complimented him as he washed gently his back. Th elf prince smiled lazily, feeling his hands roam on his body. He had been there for quite a while now, was it one month? Maybe two? He had lost count but honestly he didn't care. Vines was simply his everything by now since he had the power to soothe the pain he felt in his heart, he made him forget it even existed. "You know, they say demons cannot feel love, my brother did though and now he is paying for it because his lover betrayed him. Demons hate of love, maybe because that was one of god's teachings? To love everyone. Love is thought of something we should avoid so we indulge in those feelings of lust until we become completely insane. You know, all demons are insane, except the ones who have learned to love." He told him. 

"So you're insane too." Ares joked. 

"Am I? I don't know, maybe. I think I love you though" He said and felt Ares' body get tense. The elf looked back, meeting his eyes, searching for some kind of evidence that he was lying. Ares smiled.

"You don't love me Vines. You simply love the idea of me. My appearance, the fact that I look so pure but at the same time I moan under you. You love the fact that I suck you off every morning that's for sure and you love when I do everything you ask but you don't love me" he said as he stood up. 

"I don't get it." Vines said making him giggle. 

"It's alright. Come on now, get out. The water is getting cold anyways and I need to wash off your…remains. You said you will take me out for dinner tonight." He told him and the demon stood up and got off the big bathtub. Ares sat back inside and grabbed the soap, beginning to wash himself more carefully. "Won't you leave?" he asked as he realized that Vines had no intention of moving. He had sat down on the couch observing him, watching how he washed himself with an excited look. 

"I like the view." He said. 

"Well good for you but I am not doing it again. My back is sore." He told him. The demon chuckled, hearing him talk so blatantly and he stood up, approaching the bathtub again. Ares looked at him wearily but didn't try to avoid him. Vines stood in front of him and undid his robe without taking it fully off showing him how hard he was. The elf looked up at him and felt his hand caress his chin.

"Your back is sore and we definitely don't want that so why not use that pretty mouth of yours?" he asked him, his voice low and seductive. Ares smirked as he brought his lips closer and licked him slowly. The demon closed his eyes, his head falling back while his hand traveled on his hair. "Good" he moaned as he felt Ares' warm tongue. 

"I bet it was" The elf said with a cocky smirk when he was done and stood up. "Now you will take me for food because I am starving."

"You just had something to eat though" Vines said and Ares frowned. 

"I didn't bite it so it doesn't count." 

"Oh, please do not do that. I will give you food." The demon told him. 

After their little fun they got dressed and headed into town. There were many demons that looked at them. By now Ares knew who Vines was. He was one of the kings of this place and everyone seemed to be scared of him. Having an elf on his side might have seemed even more intriguing. That was the reason why Ares preferred to stay in. He didn't like people looking at him. Their eyes showed that he wasn't supposed to be there and that instantly made him think of home. Home was a banned thought the last few months. 

"Pay them no mind. They're all busybodies with nothing better to do with their lives." He said and Ares scoffed. 

"It's not like we are doing much with ours" he said and Vines stopped walking. He shook his head as he looked at his lover with a disappointed expression. 

"There you go again with all that duty and negative thinking. Have you not been having fun?" he asked him. 

"Do I look bored to you?" Ares asked him back and the man exhaled dramatically as a sign of relief. 

"Being boring is one of my worst nightmares you know."

"Oh my, you do fear some scary things" Ares teased him. They had resumed walking and right now they were passing by a very narrow alley. The elf prince could hear many different sounds, from the galloping of horses to the laughter of women to the…screams of children. When that sound reached his ears he stopped and looked around confused. 

"What's wrong?" Vines asked him noticing his concerned expression. 

"That sound, is that children screaming?" he asked as he tried to locate the source of the sound. 

"Oh, that. Yes. A new brothel started in this area. It's for the ones with special tastes. They are human. Not really children, some of them but not all." He told him and Ares eyes widened. 

"Humans? Children? Wait. Did you guys abduct them and sell their bodies?" He asked surprised. 

"Yes, why?"

"Vines how can you ask me why? That's horrible. We need to do something we can't just…"

"Oh, come on. Where would there be fun in that?" he asked him and approached him. Vines wrapped his hands around him and kissed him. For a second Ares resisted, he couldn't just let this go. He had to do something but as Vines kept kissing him his body relaxed, feeling comfort with the familiar sensation. "We said no duty and stuff. This does not concern you. Right?" Vines asked him and his tone was similar to the one someone would talk to a child. Ares already forgetting slightly why he was upset he nodded, making the demon smile. 

"Enough!" Another voice was suddenly heard. One that did not fit into this memory, one that did not belong there. At the sound Ares was woken up, thrown out from this endless play of memories and found Ea right in front of him, staring at him disgusted. "You're despicable." He told him. 

That was what he was scared of.
