Cillian is trapped in his small village by his step-uncle, who has usurped Cillian’s inheritance and squandered it on his own two sons. Cillian earns his own living, and does all the family's chores, whlie his step-cousins do nothing. Then Queen Beyta arrives, looking to have Cillian repair Princess Itha's broken glass slipper. A party celebrating the king’s arrival is in two days, and Cillian gets to work. But, the afternoon before the party, Cillian's family overpowers him and locks him in the dungeon so that they might receive the king--and any blessings he might bestow. The queen comes to his rescue, and introduces him at court to the King Malo, Princess Itha, and Prince Pari. The princess wants to show Cillian her "gratitude," but the prince intervenes and claims Cillian for himself. The prince's gratitude, however, isn't anything Cillian is interested in. King Malo intervenes and Cillian fears more punishment, so it comes as a pleasant surprise when he's led to the king's bed. Soon, though, Malo must return to the castle, and Cillian to his village. He once again finds himself at the mercy of his step-uncle and cousins again. Will he ever see Malo again? Was their interlude just a game to the king or something more?

The Glass Slipper

While he bathed, Cillian felt as if the worries, fear, and humiliation were being washed away with the grime and sweat from the previous few days. He stood in the shallows, the surface just below his hips. He leaned his head back and dumped water over his face, letting it run down his chest and abs. When he opened his eyes, he found Hamel staring at him.


“It’s been a long time, Cillian,” Hamel said with a leer.


“So you wanted to get me out here for your own desires, not to get me cleaned up?” Cillian asked with a matching expression.


“My intentions are entirely honest,” Hamel said, sounding hurt. “Yes, I honestly wanted to see you naked.”


Cillian laughed. He lifted Hamel off his feet and Hamel wrapped his legs around Cillian’s waist. They kissed while Cillian carried him to the edge of the pond and laid him on his back in the warm grass. Hamel gasped and moaned as Cillian thrust his cock inside of him.
