Deleted scene from DARK LOVER. **WARNING: mild plot spoilers ahead.
This scene was altered from this, its original form, during DARK LOVER's revision process. The concern was that it went just a little too far. If you're so inclined, let me know if anda think it did.
This takes place about three quarters of the way through the novel...
***
Mr. X watched Billy Riddle walk into the office. Riddle was dressed in a dark blue polo baju and a pair of khaki shorts, looking tanned, healthy, strong.
Strapping, to use an old fashioned word from Mr. X’s youth.
“Sensei.” Billy bowed his head.
“How are anda doing, son?”
“I’ve thought it over.”
Mr. X waited for the answer, surprised sejak how much he cared about what it was going to be.
“I want to work for you.”
Mr. X smiled. “That’s good, son. That’s real good.”
“So what do I have to do? Are there papers I have to fill out for the Academy?”
“It’s a bit lebih involved than that. And the Academy isn’t really going to be your employer.”
“But I thought anda said-”
“Billy, there are a few lebih things you’re going to have to understand. And there’s the little detail of an initiation.”
“You mean hazing? Because that’s no problem. I’ve been through a couple already. For football.”
“It’s a little lebih hard core than that, I’m afraid. But don’t worry, I got through it and I know you’ll do fine. I’ll tell anda what anda have to bring with anda and I’ll be sejak your side. The whole time.”
After all, watching the Omega go to work was not something to be missed.
“Sensei, I, ah...” Riddle cleared his throat. “I just want anda to know, I’m not going to let anda down.”
Mr. X smiled slowly, thinking this was the very best part of his job.
He stood up and approached Billy. Putting a hand on Riddle’s shoulder, he squeezed the Bones and stared into the wide, blue eyes that met his.
Billy slipped nicely into a trance.
Mr. X leaned ke hadapan and carefully removed Riddle’s hoop earring. Then he took the soft lobe between his thumb and forefinger, massaging it.
His voice was low and quiet.
“I want anda to call and tell your father that anda are moving out effective immediately. Tell him that you’ve found a job and that anda are going into an intensive training program.”
Mr. X took off Riddle’s stainless steel Rolex and then pulled the kolar of the guy’s baju open. He reached inside, following the platinum chain Billy wore around to the back. He released the necklace, sliding the pautan free until he captured them in his palm. The metal was warm from laying against skin.
“When anda speak with your father, anda will remain calm no matter what he says to you. anda will reassure him that your future is a promising one and that anda have been chosen out of many applicants for a very important role. anda will tell him that he may always reach anda on your cell phone, but that it will be impossible for him to see anda as anda will be traveling.”
Mr. X ran his hand over Billy’s chest, feeling the pads of muscle, the warmth of life, the hum of youth. Such power in this body, he thought. Such marvelous force. Though it would fade soon enough, now the strength was peaking.
He paused to bulatan one of the nipples he encountered.
Billy jerked in response and Mr. X looked down, repeating the caress, watching the front of Riddle’s shorts grow tight. Mr. X measured the reaction for a moment and then took his hand further south, until he got to the hardening flesh. He moved his hand over Billy’s length, envying the response. Missing the feel of that heat.
“You will not mention the Academy. anda will not reveal my identity. And anda will not tell him that anda are coming to live with me.”
Moving around so he stood behind Billy, he slipped his hand into Riddle’s shorts. Billy’s breath broke as his flesh was gripped and Mr. X remembered what that felt like, that first magical touch of a new lover. The anticipation. The thick power concentrated between the legs, the urge to come warring with the delicious pain of delay.
God, he missed being with women. Missed the feel of softness under him, all that pleasure, that release.
Mr. X spoke right into Billy’s ear. “You will tell your father that anda are sorry for all the evil things anda did. anda will tell him that anda Cinta him. And then I will pick anda up and take anda away.”
He eased Billy back, so that he was supporting Riddle’s weight on his chest. He held on to Billy, stroking him, cradling him, until Riddle’s last orgasm came in for a landing. Mr. X felt the rushing pulses as his own, remembering what it had been like to be in a lover’s embrace, remembering that wonderful closeness, yearning for it in a way he hadn’t when he’d been a man.
As Billy breathed heavily, sagging in peaceful surrender, Mr. X remembered his own induction ceremony. And for a brief, passing instant, he wished that he’d thought lebih carefully about the offer he’d accepted decades ago.
He’d be an old man now. An old man with grandchildren, maybe, if he’d ever found a woman he could have stood to be around for any length of time. And he would have had an average life, maybe worked at one of the paper mills atau at a gas station. He would have been one of a hundred million other anonymous men who were bitched at sejak their wives and who drank with their buddies and who passed their precious days in a haze of ambient dissatisfaction because they were nothing special.
But he would have been alive.
As he felt Riddle soften in his palm, he wondered whether he had in fact come out on the money side of the exchange. Because he was no longer his own man. He was a servant of the Omega’s whims. The bahagian, atas servant, as it were, but a servant none the less.
And he would never be mourned.
Either because he never stopped breathing. atau because no one would miss him after he took his last lungful.
Mr. X frowned.
Not that any of that mattered, however. Because there was no going back. Which was something Riddle was going to learn first hand tonight.
Mr. X released Riddle’s mind and body.
“So are we clear?” he berkata softly.
Billy nodded, dazed. He looked down at himself as if wondering what had happened.
“Good, now give me your cell phone.” After Billy had handed the thing over, Mr. X smiled.
“What do anda say to me, son?”
“Yes, sensei.”
“No. Not this time, Billy. This time anda say thank you.”
