I am struggling to find time in my weekends. Hell I don’t even know how we’re more than halfway through this hellscape of a year.
Ah well back into the SF story. Aneirin and Kaleo are getting to know each other. Aneirin has just explained part of his job as a geneticist and his charity work, surprising Kaleo.
Content Warning: references to sexual abuse
“Wow…I don’t know what to say to that. I guess I didn’t think that my master would be like this but you didn’t exactly buy me.” Kaleo wasn’t sure he could mesh his preconceived ideas with this reality. If any of this was true, Shyroth was a better man than any Kaleo had ever known. He hadn’t been prepared for that. Hell, he didn’t know how to handle that.
“I’m not sure I want to know what you were expecting.”
Kaleo gripped the top of Shyroth’s chair until his knuckles went white. “They trained us to take more humiliations than I imagined could have existed. I never considered myself naïve, not being a slum mutt but I didn’t know there were that many sexual fetishes. I was expecting a cruel man. I didn’t know what else my master would be, but I knew he’d enjoy hurting me.”
