Running very late again so I’m going to just dive right into it. Kaleo is finally alone in Aneirin’s home and he’s cleaning up, trying to relax and failing. Content warning: mentions of physical and sexual abuse.

Kaleo liked the feel of the warm water whipping all over him. He’d never experienced anything like it. He lathered up and shampooed the hell out of his hair to get all the gunk out of it. He’d never been vain, and he had hated every single time the Toymakers had dressed him up like a doll to get him used to it. As he washed lower, his fingers trailed over the brand on his ass. Kaleo shook. He’d never forget that. They had lasered the mark into his flesh, the stench of his burning skin filling his nostrils. He could imagine he still smelled it.
