in the bedroom

Maxim stood there waiting for this nobleman's death sentence. And he could feel his master's hold on him tighten. 

< don't glare at me like that .. I am not going to make a complaint or anything .. just give me a chance to talk ok?> The yang nobleman stood there smiling affectionately at his master. 

But he would glance at him with a murderous glare. 

This man was bad news .. maxim knew that this man would try to get rid of him in the future.

< tomorrow .. > The master's soft voice came as a whisper as he leaned all his weight on Maxim.

Gilbert glared at the audacity of this man, first he begged for forgiveness then tried to assault him, and now threatened him with Maxim's life ..

Fine .. 

You asked for it ..

All the darkness was drained from Gilbert with anger. He leaned completely onto Maxim using his chess as a pillow and gave Leopold the look of a drunk and tired man < I am tired .. > he whined < are you going to make me do this now ?>

Gilbert stared at Leopold swallowing his words back and with a forced smile the man answered < no .. no tomorrow ..> 

Gilbert knew what effect his acting coy had on this man. 

He hummed softly and blinked his eyes slowly. He silently squeezed his attendant hand, and Maxim got the message. 

Slowly the bigger man guided him into the estate < get a room ready for lord Alpine, > he continued to use a soft voice. 

Gilbert was not a fool. He knew that many lusts after his appearance. He hated it, but he was not above using this lust to his advantage.

Sight .. 

Maxim was biting the inside of his mouth, and standing so stiff by the bathroom door as the other man was enjoying his bath.

Why must he stand Gard? 

The older master was not here but he was yet ordered to stand guard. 

He listened to the sound of the water splash and the soft content sight. 

Maxim swallowed, he did not like this new job ..

Finally after what felt like hours the yang master walked out wrapped in a soft bathrobe. Maxim could see the water droplet on his neck and averted his eyes as he followed him out grabbing a new towel on the way out of the connected room and into the bedroom.

< the fuck ?> 

Maxim froze behind his master staring at the intruder. 

Leopold, his name, was sitting by the couch in the bedroom. And stood smiling as Maxim and his master walked in..

The man took a glance at Maxim standing behind the lord and the smile disappeared. 

Fuck …

Maxim swore 

Now he has a new enemy when he didn't even do a thing .. 

Gilbert stared at the older man in astonishment.

How can a person be this charmless!

< what the fuck are you doing in my bedroom Leopold? > he asked frowning 

< you bath with your servant present? > he heard the man demand in an unpleasant tone 

Hah .. Gilbert wanted to laugh 

Was this what Richard was after? 

< what the fuck is this commoner doing in your bedroom? > the other man asked, in anger, as if he had caught a cheating wife.

Gilbert stared, was this man for real? 

He took a deep breath, remembering that a complaint from this asshole may get Maxim in trouble.

He walked to his bed, sat down, and waved to Maxim to follow. 

The ever-so-obedient maxim followed and sat beside him starting to work on drying his long wet hair.

< you don't need him for that, I can help you,and you!> glaring at the servant < Get out !>

Maxim's hand stopped 

And Gilbert was royally ennoyed < maxim .. did I say to stop? > he said glancing at the servant with cold eyes.

The boy bowed his head and continued his work.

Leopold's fists were shaking with anger < Gilbert! Are you provoking me on purpose? >

Gilbert's eyes slide on the man who is standing not far. < Maxim is mine .. > he said in a cold tone < if you lay a hand on him, I will never forgive you ..> 

< you .. > Leopold's voice was shaking to Gilbert's pleasure .< yours? You .. hah .!! You haven't forgiven me anyway! > 

Gilbert softened his gaze and said in a small voice < I am still talking to you aren't I ?> 

< Gilbert ..> The other took a step closer and Gilbert snapped < stop !> 

He did.

< I ..> fuck, Gilbert still needs this fool .. and he doesn't want to risk Maxim's life < what do you want Leopold ?> 

He stared as the other man's frown deepened and he watched him take a deep breath walk back to the couch and sit down with his elbow resting on his knees.< I need ta talk to you about .. > he glanced at maxim in anger < the citation .. >
