Chapter 9: Planets and New Worlds

"W-w-why...? W-w-what is that?" Kurt intentionally defied the order Blaine had instructed him with. The silver chastity belt in the vampire's hands looked too scary and foreign for Kurt's simple mind to accept.

In the past being naked in front of Blaine did not bother Kurt. The vampire did, after all, bathe him and helped him get dressed. Yet, now, after the incidence where his sensitive appendage acted up, Kurt did not want Blaine to see him nude. What if his body did that again? He did not have control the last time it happened and he didn't even know his body was capable of doing that in the first place. According to Blaine, he said Daniel's name in his dream. Daniel is nice to him and the other human gives him funny feelings in his tummy, but what is wrong with that? He also dreams about Blaine and how nice the vampire treats him. Sometimes he has nightmares about Sebastian and Nick, but Blaine never seemed bothered by that. What was special about his last dream?

Ever since Blaine jerked Kurt out of his sleep, he stopped remembering what he was dreaming was about. What happened in his dream that was so bad?

"Excuse me?" Blaine growled. Kurt's blue eyes widen. Yes, he heard Blaine growl from time-to-time, but the snarl has never directed at him before. "When did you start questioning me or my authority? Don't make me become the bad person here. Now, be the good pet I raised and drop the blanket. Or are you no longermygood pet? Do I need to go and find myself a new pet - a new good boy who doesn't do nasty things in his dreams?" The vampire bluffed. He would lock Kurt in a cage before he gave his human up. "I'm sure it won't be difficult to replace you. There are many lost and lonely little boys on this planet who need a kind master to love and protect them."

"Y-y-you would replace me...?" The simple voice dripped in a confused combination of fear, sadness and jealousy.

"I want a good pet." Blaine repeated. "Are you my good pet?"

Kurt's grip on the blanket lessened to the point where gravity was able to take over. With a deep breath the fabric dispelled to the floor. Humility and embarrassment casted over the willowy body as the light originating from the ever-burning fire mantle highlighted his nudity. Shades of pink glazed over Kurt's pale cheeks, and his blue eyes stared at the floor in shame. In his line of vision Kurt was able to partially relax with the comfort and knowledge that his body was not betraying him again. Kurt did not know why his body did what it did, but he could not allow it to happen again - at least not without Blaine's permission.

Despite the vampire's anger and irritation, the traces of pink on Kurt's face, shoulders and chest were not missed. Blaine did not know where to place his opinion of his human's bashfulness. On one side, the blood within his sweet virgin human smelt almost too delicious to withstand. Sometime ago, Nick told Blaine that fear can enhance the flavor of blood. The same can be said about embarrassment. Whether it is fear or embarrassment, the additional flavor suited well within his human. In the opposite spectrum of Blaine's conflicted mind was irritation that Kurt gained knowledge. From now on his precious human understands that there is something special about nudity and that his body is able to behave in a particular way. How could that have happened? What could he have done differently?

"What are you thinking about?" Blaine kept his distance from his human. The decision was made. Kurt needed to be reminded that his body belonged to his master, and there is nothing more natural than for a master to admire his naked-diamond collared pet.

The warmth from the fire tickled Kurt's hairless body and continued to remind the human that he was completely exposed.

"I'm sorry," Kurt spoke out of reflex. "Please tell me how I can stop that from happening again. I want to be yourgoodandonly pet." Life beyond Blaine was unimaginable. Blaine is his constant in this confusing world.

Blaine steadily approached his human. The belt remained secured in his hands. "I'm going to ask you some questions. If you're my good pet, then you will tell me the truth and I'll solve your problems. Does that sound alright?"

The silver device mocked and teased something unknowing within Kurt. He understands the purpose of his collar. The collar protects him and tells everyone who he belongs to. The intentions of the belt were yet to be known.

"Yes Blaine, that sounds good."

"Dear pet," Blaine was close enough to cup Kurt's pink cheek with his cold hand. "Given the situation, I would prefer if you called me master." The vampire placed the belt on the bed. With his newly spare hand, Blaine secured his palm against Kurt's nude bottom. "Pet, has anyone ever touched you where I'm touching you right now?" The vampire lightly squeezed Kurt bottom to emphases his question."

Kurt gasped from the unexpected touch. "N-n-no, why would anyone touch me there?"

Satisfied by the answer, Blaine tantalizingly teased his long finger tips around Kurt's pelvis before slowly dipping forward. The vampire's well trained fingers barely avoid contacting the teenager's sex. A high pitch squeal resulted from the teasing. "Has anyone ever touched you here? Have you ever touched anyone like this?"

"No...m-m-master..." the details from Kurt's dream may have been forgotten, but the teenager did remember a peculiar feeling his abdomen experienced before he got into trouble. It began with a strange and mildly addicting sensation that made his hormonal body crave something unfamiliar. The same feeling was happening again. "M-m-master, I don't want to be nasty."

"Shh-shh," Blaine's cold breathe iced over Kurt's right ear. "There is a difference between being a nasty pet or a good pet. Nasty pets desire someone other than his master. Good petscraveandyearnfor his master'sto touchtheir bareflesh." Blaine moaned and rocked his selected words into his pet's ear. The hand of Kurt's face slipped away and secured a gentle grip on the back of the pale neck. "Pet, I want you to close your eyes."

The thinning blue irises slipped behind nervous eyelids. Without the distraction of lust filling pupils, the vampire was able to narrow his concentration on the human's flush face and heavy breathing.

"Pet, who are you picturing in his mind?"

The answer was immediate and slightly desperate, "You."

Blaine smirked at Kurt's unknowing want, and his cold fingers continued to tease his human's sensitive skin. "Without opening your eyes, I want you to describe to me what I look like." Silence followed and the teenager bit his lower lip in confusion. "I want details," Blaine clarified in a low honey-coated whisper. His hot breath teased the depth of Kurt's ear. "What do my eyes look like? What does my hair, face, and body remind you of? Does it make you desire anything?"

"B-B-Blaine," Kurt called the older man by accident. "M-m-master, you...you have to stop. I don't want to be nasty again."

"Answer my question pet, or otherwise you are nasty." Blaine lowered his mouth away from Kurt's ear and journeyed his way towards the side of the long pale neck. "Who do you see in your mind? Who is making you feel good?"

Kurt wanted to ignore the way Blaine's hands felt against his skin. He wanted to pretend that Blaine's mouth on his neck did not make his toes curl with eagerness. The sensation was pleasurable, but he knew that the conscience of these feelings was a cold and dark shower. Any hope of denial was not strong enough to escape Blaine's sweet grinding words of encouragement.

"I can see my - everything." Kurt began with an uncommon huskiness in his voice. "I can the gentle hands that have nurtured and raised me. They are the same hands that hold and rock me to sleep and awake me in the morning. If it wasn't for you, then I'd be lost in my sleep." The hand on Kurt's neck loosened and dropped to the teenager's lower back. "I can hear my kind master's voice. This is the sound that guides me in the dark and sings to me in the light. Your voice is my favorite comfort." Kurt took a deep breath and kept his eyes closed. "I can see your rich black head of hair. It is soft and wavy. It reminds me of the turning of book pages and it makes me want to run my fingers through it."

Blaine removed his hand from Kurt's back and directed his human's delicate hand towards his product-free hair. "It's okay, you can touch me."

Hesitant soft fingers massaged the vampire's scalp and gently tugged on the thick hair. An unexpected purr left Blaine.

"I can see my master's eyes. Sometimes your eyes are red or black, but normally they are hazel. Red is the color of desire. I don't know what you crave, but I want to be the good pet that gives you want you want. Your eyes are black when you're angry. I never want to be the reason why your eyes turn black. Hazel is the color I see when you're happy and proud of me. It is the color of my true home."

"Very good pet," Blaine mumbled against Kurt's pale neck. The hand teasing the human's inner thigh recognized Kurt's teenage hormones starting to act up again. Satisfied by the response, Blaine lightly slithered his fingers up towards Kurt's flat abdomen. "Is there anything in particular that you want?"

The new touch caused Kurt to moan and his knees to tremble. "B-B-Blaine...m-m-master what is this feeling? It wants something, but I don't know what. It's scaring me."

"Shh-shh, you said my voice gives you comfort." Kurt motioned his head a confirmative. "Listen to what I have to say."

Kurt took a deep breath as Blaine continued to run his hand up and down his naked body.

"I know what your body is craving. Your body wants to please its master. It wants to give thanks for all the hard workI'vedone for you." The mouth returned to Kurt's right ear. "My body feels it too and it wants to reap the rewards your body has to offer." The mouth distance itself from Kurt. "Open your eyes pet."

Dilated pupils reopened and hungrily searched into the red eyes staring back at him. "I'm the only one allowed to collect those rewards. You willnotshare my prize with anyone else. You are not allowed towantto share my prize with anyone. Do you understand what I'm telling you?"

"What reward could I possibly give you?"

Without breaking eye contact Blaine retrieved the chastity belt off the bed. "I willshowyou the answer to that question on your sixteenth birthday. Until then, I want you to wear this?" Blue eyes widened at the foreign object. "This is a special device that someonegave me." Blaine carefully avoided the word 'mother' in his sentence. "It will prevent others from trying to deprive me of you. It won't, however, prevent you from deceiving me again. If you ever find yourself craving another person, then you - my good pet - shall come straight to me. I'll give you another reminder of who you belong to and I'll help redirect your confused intentions. Does that make sense?"

Nothing made sense to Kurt. What does he have to offer to his master or anyone else? He is not hiding a special treasure in his hands or behind his back. "Yes master. I understand."

"When you feel the way you're feel right now, you're only allowed to think ofme." Blaine secured a grip on Kurt's shoulders. "When you have...certain dreams...I want you to dream of me in the way you just described. The next time you're having these craving feelings and you chose someone other than me...then I will be forced to get a new pet." The vampire lied. "Neither of us wants that."

Kurt quickly shook his head in jealousy. "No-no-no...you'remymaster and no one else's."

"Pet," Blaine grabbed Kurt's chin when he noticed that his human was going to stare at his feet. The vampire did not want Kurt to see his hard problem between his legs. "Before I put this on you, I want to tell me about Kitty?"

The vampire recreated the old and painful memory to distract Kurt's body from its current level of excitement. Blaine did not imagine that it would be wise to put the chastity belt on someone in Kurt's current condition.

"Kitty," Kurt cried the simple word. He was not prepared or expecting to talk about the fluffy white critter that he used to take care of. The cat was taken away from him when he was not able to properly take care of her. "I loved Kitty. She used to allow me to comb her hair and she would sleep on my tummy." Kurt wiggled his hips and waved his hands in the telling of his story. "She was mycat andItook good care of her. I don't know what I could have done differently to take better care of her."

The vampire pretended that he did not force the cat out of Kurt's life. "Pets are a lot of work. Let's imagine that you took cared Kitty for a long time, and one day she decided that she liked Sebastian or Nick better than you. How would that make you feel?" Blaine did not care if he was being overly obvious with the parallelism between his spoken example and the current situation he was trying to correct. "Would it hurt your feelings?"

"Why would Kitty like Sebastian and Nick? They are mean."

"Fine, what if Kitty favoredDaniel," Blaine struggled to say the disgusting name. "Then how would you feel?"

"I wouldn't mind," Kurt honestly spoke and Blaine frowned. "Danielis really nice.Danielwould probably have taken better care of Kitty than I could have. When I still had Kitty,Danielwould dangle a string in front of her and she would roll on her back and play with it.Danielis a lot of fun to play with."

Unlike the time before Blaine did not miss the sweet way Kurt said the other human's name, nor did it escape his notice that Kurt preferred to say the name 'Daniel' versus 'he, him or his.' If that was not enough to irritate the vampire, then the content of Kurt's statement was. Daniel had no right to play with his human. Worst of all, Kurt was never supposed to want or share his pet with another person. Kitty was supposed to teach Kurt that pets can only have one master.

"Pet," Blaine tried to tame his growl. "How come you never told me that?" Kurt was not given a chance to answer the question. "All this time I thought you weren't able to take care of your pet. I understand now that you never loved your pet in the first place."

"No-no-no, IlovedKitty!" Kurt no longer cared that he was nude and his sex relaxed from all its previous excitement. "I took reallygood care of her."

The vampire kept his face straight and he tightened his hold on the belt. "No Kurt, you did not love your pet." Before the teenager could argue Blaine continued, "Help me put this on you. Step into it. You can lean on me." Kurt pressed his weight against Blaine's shoulder. The cold metal against Kurt's skin sent shivers up and down the slim body. "You never truly loved Kitty because a good master wouldnever-ever-everallow someone to take his pet away from him. I don't care if the other personpretendsto be nice likeDaniel.Only a true master can take care of his pet. Kitty must have known this and that is why she left you. She knew you didn't love her."

"No..." Kurt whimpered in defeat from a battle he did not know he was fighting.

"Yes, pets are destined for only one master. However, if a master is willing to share his pet, then the pet will run away and find a new master who will love him with his whole heart. That is what happened between Kitty and you. You didn't love Kitty enough and she ran away." Blaine paused when new tears started to form in Kurt's blue eyes. "Daniel may have pretended to be nice to Kitty, but when the day is done his true alliance is with Sebastian. He never would have been good to Kitty and he will never be good to you. Don't forget what I told you before. If you were to leave me and go with Daniel, then Daniel would get bored of you and he would abandon you someplace far away and scary. Sebastian's human doesn't care for you. Hehatesyou."

Worried, confused and terrified Kurt hugged his arms around his chest and watched as Blaine tight the belt around this thin pelvis.

"Why does he hate me? He has always been nice to me before?" Kurt blindly followed Blaine's words into the dark.

"He is jealous of you. You are such a beautiful and wonderful pet." The vampire praised. "You are better than him, and Daniel knows that he will never be able to outshine you. So instead of outshining you, he wants to destroy and eliminate you. We mustn't allow that to happen."

Kurt leaned more of his weight onto the vampire. The belt was heavier than he expected it to be. "So...a good master does not want to share his pet, and a good pet only rewards his master."

"Correct. A good master claims what is his and he does every extreme necessary to secure what belongs to him, stays with him." With the turn of a silver key in a small keyhole, a soft clicking sound ensured. "And good pets only dream and desire the touch of his master."

Blaine removed his hands from the belt and slowly stepped back. The metal curved itself beautifully around the slender and untouched body. All at the same time, it perfectly protected the sweet smell of virginity radiating off his human.

Without the additional support to lean Kurt spread his legs in effort to maintain an upright balance. "M-m-master this is really heavy."

In rapid speed Blaine returned to his fragile human and lifted Kurt in a bridal style fashion. "You can call me Blaine again, your lesson and punishment is over." Long arms happily wrapped around the vampire's neck. "It is way passed your bedtime. You must be exhaustive, hmm?"

Kurt was in fact physically tried, but he was also emotionally drained. "Can you still read me a bedtime story? I feel didn't hear how tonight's story ended."

The delicate words spoken from the sweet weight in his arms warmed something within the vampire's cold interior. "Of course I'll retell you the story, 'How the Good Pet Pleased His Kind Master.' Let's get you settled in bed first."

Blaine did not bother and return to the bathroom for Kurt's sleepwear. The teenager would only be sleeping in his belt from now on.

As if Kurt weighed nothing more than a feather, Blaine laid his mostly-nude human against the cool silk sheets. The royal color contrasted wonderfully against Kurt's pale skin. The blue diamonds on the black collar made Kurt's blue irises appear brighter and his pupils appear dilated with lust and other sins. The previous smell of embarrassment was long passed gone, and the smell of unadulterated virginity happily filled Blaine's nostrils.

"Blaine, can I ask you a question."

"Of course, a good pet should always ask his kind master questions when he is confused." Plus this allowed Blaine better access to direct Kurt's humble mind.

"What is a planet?"

The simple word slightly knocked the wind out of the vampire. With little else to do Blaine hesitantly covered his human with a thick blanket as he searched for his voice. "Where did you learn that new word?"

"You said that word earlier." Kurt reminded, "You said that there are a lot of lost boys on this planet looking for kind masters. What does a planet look like? Where is that planet?"

More than one silent curse word raced and through Blaine's mind. How could he have said that word in front of Kurt? Didn't Kurt learn enough for one evening?

"A planet," Blaine began and settled into a comfortable position on the side of the bed. Maybe this 'lesson' could help prepare Kurt for lessons to come. "A planet is a place where lost things go." The vampire manipulated the definition to suit his needs. "It is the place where bad and abandoned pets go. It's scary and it's far away from me and this warm bed." Kurt innocently giggled when Blaine eagerly tickled him. "It's a place I never wanted you to learn about. As long as you stay with me, you will never have to go there. Do you understand?"

Kurt silently agreed.

"The planet that I'm referring to is a very peculiar place. The ceiling has strange and changing colors." Blaine avoided the word 'sky' for simplicity. "Lights don't come from fire mantles, but instead it comes from a burning ball of fire that looms over your head. This hot burning flame could easily tumble down on you if you do anything wrong." Kurt's mouth formed a circle. "The floor is not smooth and it doesn't have walls. It's a very confusing place and lonely pets often get lost within moments. I don't want you to ever go there. If you were to get lost, then I may never be able to find you again. The planet is a very scary place."

"I don't want to go there. It sounds scary and ugly" Kurt tried to wiggle against the silk sheets, but his belt was heavy and he was only able to move his arms and legs.

The vampire leaned forward and kissed the teenagers forehead. "I'm glad to hear that. Now, how about I tell you your bedtime story?"

...

Sebastian didn't like good-surprises and bad-surprises were completely inexcusable. Apart of him knew he should not be shocked by Kurt's little outburst. Daniel is, after all, too nice for his own good and he has always proven himself nurturing and loving. Sebastian is not a fool, however. He knows fully well that Daniel used to sneak around and visit the breeder who gave birth to Kurt. The vampire was also aware of Daniel budding friendship with Kurt long before Blaine. At the time he was only able to see his personal benefits from such behaviors.

Nick may prefer to taste fear in Jeff's blood, but Sebastian prefers his lust-flavored blood to be spiced with sympathy. Daniel was sympathetic towards the childless mother; now he is remorseful for the pitiful teenager who will never know what a mother is or understand the concept of freedom or freewill. All of this surmounted to one thing for Sebastian - delicious blood he could gorge himself on.

Sebastian may have known more than he let on, but he will never take responsibility for the turn of events. Everyone is responsible for their own actions. Kurt allowed himself to develop a schoolboy crush, and Daniel chose to go against the rules and he befriend Blaine's pet.

All of that is over. The human's had their fun. Now it is time for him to intervene and correct yesterday's procrastination. Then, once his debt with Blaine is paid and over, then he and Daniel could leave the Anderson Manor with good riddance. Once they were free of the responsibility of Kurt, he would find a new object for his human to sympathize over. Whatever that object ended up being, it would not involve Kurt or the memory of the weak teenager.

Thanks to quick speed and determination Sebastian rounded his way back towards his bedchamber in ultrafast timing.

With a gentle turn of the door handle and a soft push, the door soundless swung open. The room was pitch-dark. There was no warm fire nightlight brooding in the background and the natural lights of day were completely shielded with heavy curtains. The darkness did not yield any complications to the vampire - a true hunter of the night.

In careless ease Sebastian undressed himself from his inside-out sleepwear, and returned to his preferred state of bedroom nudity. His worn and tired human laid rested peacefully asleep on the bed unmade by energetic lovers. Despite the mess Daniel's lower nudity was partially covered with a thin silk sheet. His bare back and shoulders were nicely display for Sebastian to admire - Sebastian and no one else.

The vampire slowly lifted the sheet off of Daniel and casted it aside. He was more than thirsty and his body was not interested in mere intimacy. Sebastian needed to reclaim his human and stake his property with primal instincts and raw emotions. Blaine can sugar coat his feeling towards Kurt all his wants, but not Sebastian. He prefers to break Daniel just so he could fix him back up and fuck him down again.

Daniel did not stir when Sebastian settled his weight to over the mattress. His arms trapped the human in and his knees nudged Daniel's legs in separate directions. The vampire didn't consider waking his human up for what would follow next. With great and unexpected force the vampire thrust his sex into the human.

"Ah!" Daniel broke from his dream and forcefully returned to the state of pain that puts him to sleep most nights.

"There's my good boy," Sebastian grunted into his human's ear. "My good pet, you're always ready and eager to please me."

"Sebastian," the younger boy cried from the unanticipated invasion and pressed his forehead against his pillow. It was not every night that his vampire would wake him up for a few more rounds of bedroom 'fun.'

After many years of captivity Daniel knew the pattern well. Sebastian would enter him and he would moan and scream with an intensity that matched the vampire's thrusts. Tonight, however, the pattern was off key. Sebastian was inside him, but he wasn't moving. "Sebastian..."

"Don't worry pet. I have every intention of fucking you raw on all fours. First we need to have a little lesson. I know Blaine likes to craft his lessons in little cute bedtime stories, but not me." The vampire lowered his chest against the human's back and Sebastian covered his hands on top of Daniel's. "Here is the unedited stripped down version of some breaking news." The older man pushed his sex deeper into the younger body beneath him. "Sweet-little-innocent-Kurt just had his first wet dream." Sebastian growled against Daniel's skin. "You can only image Blaine's devastation and heartbreak when his precious little jewel moaned and whimpered out your name instead of his."

A drip of sweat rolled down the human's forehead.

Sebastian smirked when his favorite smell of sympathy scented the room. "Indeed my pet. Blaine was not the least bit pleased with little Kurt. As a result there has been a change to Blaine's plans. Our kind host has decided to claim Kurt on his fifteen instead of his sixteenth birthday." The vampire lied. Blaine still had every intention to claim his human on the original date of Kurt's sixteenth celebration. "I tried to talk Blaine about of it, but he wouldn't hear of it. He was so angry with Kurt. For a moment I thought Blaine was going to kill Kurt this very evening."

The sweat on Daniel's forehead continued and tears began to shed.

"Do you remember when I first took you? You cried the whole time and afterwards I was afraid your little body wouldn't survive the claiming process."

Daniel does not have a complete memory of the night Sebastian is referring to. He can only remember certain bits and pieces. When he closes his eyes he can sometimes remember the pressure of rocks and dirt beneath him; and he has the memory a cold set of hands pinning him to the earth and another set of hands greedily undressing him. The red in his attacker's eyes is the clearest detail he can recall from that night. The red in Sebastian's eyes only emphasized the vampire's pale skin and blood stained lips. The very lips that currently loom above him in the form of a sinister smile.

"You are mine." All those years ago Sebastian didn't formally introduce himself or acknowledge the life beneath him. "All mine."

The words did not take meaning in Daniel's confused and young mind until an invasive and unwelcoming pain ripped into his virgin body. The in and out jerking lasted between several different states of consciences. Somewhere along the way Daniel can remember being force-fed a thick liquid gushing from Sebastian's bleeding wrists. Immediately after the vampire's blood traveled down his throat and absorbed into his circulation, Daniel passed out. Whether it was an hour or week later, he woke up naked and chained to an unfamiliar bed in an unfamiliar house. He did not realizing he was crying and screaming until Sebastian gagged him and proceeded to claim his body with animalistic force.

"There-there," Sebastian returned Daniel back to the conversation at hand. "There is no use in crying over thingsyoucan't change. Allwecan do if mull over the current situation and hope all our hard efforts don't go to waste."

Daniel did not try and ask Sebastian to explain himself. From past experience Daniel learned to focus on his breathing and listen during times like this. Talking took too much energy and Sebastian decided how much knowledge he would be given.

"Dear Pet, I'm not sure you understand just how close to death you were when I claimed you." The vampire did his classic smirk and licked one of the other boy's ears. This was more or less a lie. Daniel almost didn't survive his claiming, but it was not a result to Sebastian's sheer force. Yet rather it was due to the fact that the Sebastian forgot to feed Daniel his blood earlier in the process. The truth did not matter anymore. "I was tamer in my youth and you were a strong nineteen year old who worked many hours on his father's plantation. Even with all that in your favor, you still barely managed to survive." Sebastian paused in hopes that Daniel would predict where the story was heading. "How in the world do you think a fifteen year old boy could survive the powerful force of an angry vampire? This is not just any boy were talking about. Kurt has never worked manual labor. He is weak. I'm not even sure his little body will be able to support the weight of his new chastity belt." The vampire pushed himself deeper into his human and Daniel's heart skipped a beat.

"Oh, I sorry, did I forget to include that detail? That's right. Blaine has further imprisoned his human. The key to get out of the belt is safely chained around Blaine's neck." Sebastian replied with false sincerity. "I am curious to see if Kurt will be able to survive Blaine's claim over him. Otherwise all these years we've spent training Kurt's would have been in vain. Wouldn't that be a true shame of ourtime?" The vampire did not display any remorse on behalf of Kurt - there was no remorse to give.

Additional silence continued and sweet layers of sympathy steadily scented the room.

The flavor in the room, and the warmth beneath the vampire was becoming harder-and-harder to ignore. With tremendous will power Sebastian growled one more detail in his deception.

"In a couple of months Blaine is going to show unyielding mercy on his little human. There is nothingyoucan do to save Kurt. Here is the positive side of things: if Kurt dies, then you and I will be free to leave this place." With the closing of these words, Sebastian pulled himself out of his pet and roughly down again. Daniel would certainly be left limping afterwards.

...

"Sebastian I have to use the toilet." Kurt cried for the fifth time in twenty minutes. The teenager was dressed in his usual clothing and his newly acquired belt was completely hidden from view. Similar to an upside-down turtle, Kurt was laying with his back against the floor. If it wasn't for Kurt's slower and less frequent movements, then no unobserving person would suspect the presence of a chastity belt.

"I told you, Blaine is the only one who can take you to the toilet from now on." The vampire growled. He was long passed tired of Blaine's pet and he was ready to leave the Anderson Manor once and for all. "You shouldn't have guzzled all the lemonade I gave you. You practically asked for this to happen."

"What does lemonade have to do me needing to use the toilet?" Kurt asked with wide panicked eyes. "You kept bring me more and more lemonade. I thought it was okay for me to drink it."

Sebastian smirked at the spoiled human and returned to his favorite past time - admiring his human. In the far corner of the playroom sat Daniel. The other human was carefully perched on a hard wooden stool and he was staring at the backside of closed window curtains. Even though Sebastian didn't want Kurt to see Daniel, the vampire would rather that happen than for his human to be out of his sight. Claiming or reclaiming a human has the tendency to make a vampire additionally protective and clingy.

"Sebastian! Please!" Kurt screamed to the vampire. The teenager was too afraid to look and ask Daniel. "I have togo! I don't want to wet my pants!"

"Any I don't want to watch you, but you don't hear me screaming about it." Sebastian spoke with ice in his voice. "Blaine isn't here to protect you. Don't drive my patience. You should bedamnhappy that your even here. If you were my pet I would have replaced you a long time ago."

The vampire would have continued scolding the human, but he held back when his well-trained hearing recognized the sound of Nick's footsteps leaving Blaine's study. A smug grin crossed his face and his eyes glanced back at Daniel. The tension in Daniel's shoulders left little room for question that the human was scheming. Sebastian could only image what Daniel was planning, but his personal plan was working out well.

The playroom door opened and Nick stepped in. The average height vampire with strong shoulders first analyzed Kurt's misery and then frowned at Sebastian.

"From what I could hear you've been teaching Kurt some colorful words, d-a-m-n."

Taller vampire laughed.

"Nick," Kurt grabbed for the opportunity. "I have to use the toilet. Please let mego. It really hurts."

Nick was already aware of Kurt's problem. Similar to all the vampires in the manor, he heard each complaint the boy made. After Kurt made his second request to relieve himself, Nick scolded Blaine in the study and explained that denying Kurt access to use the toilet could cause the teenager to develop a bladder infection. The other vampire weighted his risks before deciding to allow Kurt to struggle for thirty minutes. Twenty minutes later and Nick was sent down to direct the situation.

"Sebastian, Blaine wants to have a word with us in his study." Nick ordered.

"And he sent you to be his messenger-boy. Oh isn't that nice of him." The taller vampire stood up and stretched his arms over his head. Without his normal compliant or protest Sebastian stormed out of the room, regrettably leaving Daniel behind.

Kurt continued to wiggle his arms and legs while moaning on the floor. His waist and pelvis remained the location of his center of gravity.

"It's okay Kurt. Blaine will be here in a little while to help you out." Nick assured. "Daniel, you're to watch him while we're gone."

Similar to Sebastian, Nick quickly marched out of the room.

Daniel shyly turned around on his stool. He did not except to be left alone with Kurt given recent events, not that he was complaining. He needed to be alone with the teenager to clear the air. In all his planning he always expected getting Kurt alone would be the hardest part, now he realized that communicating would be the challenge. Vampires have fantastic hearing so he could not simply talk to Kurt. At the same time he could not write a message to Kurt, as the teenager is illiterate.

As quietly as possible, Daniel slowly stood up from the stool. He body felt broken and his nerves were sending painful message up and down his spine and legs.

"Kurt," Daniel breathed in a whispered. Maybe if he kept his voice low and the vampires stayed busy, then Blaine and the others wouldn't hear him. "Kurt."

The teenager nervously stared at his friend, and then quickly looked away in fear. The previous bedtime story repeated in his mind. Blaine warned Kurt that Daniel hated him and wanted to destroy him.

"Kurt, please..." Daniel remanding standing upright, the thought of bending over and kneeling on the floor felt like a herculean task.

"Go away," Kurt spoke with numb words. If he could, then he would have rolled onto his side and away from Daniel. Unfortunately the belt was heavy and too resisting. "I'mBlaine'sgood pet. You're mean and you want to hurt me."

For the truth to be told, Daniel didn't want to know the explanation of Kurt's newly found behaviors. Whatever the back story was, it could not have been pleasant.

"When have I ever been mean to you? I've never hurt you and I never will." Daniel whispered. The pain Sebastian put him through was horrible. However, Kurt's fear towards him was worse. "He lied to you. I'm your friend. Remember when we used to play with your dolls. You were pink doll and I was green doll. Blaine told you that green doll hated pink doll, but when we started playing pink doll learned that green doll didn't hate him. That's what is happening right now. You need to understand that I don't hate you."

Without saying anything Kurt fiddled with his fingers. Daniel has always been nice to him and he played with him when Blaine was gone and everyone else ignored him. At the same time Blaine has never been wrong before.

"Blue doll is the master and pink doll is the pet." Kurt repeated. "Who is green doll? Why does pink doll need anyone else when he has blue doll?"

"Kurt..." Daniel echoed the name in horror. How could he save Kurt from the life he is living when the teenager was talking in such a way? "Green doll is very important. Remember you once told me that green doll was lonely?"

Blue eyes remained distance. Kurt did remember saying that, but he did not say the words of conformation.

"Green doll was lonely and he wanted to help pink doll." Daniel tried to kneel. "There is a woman, her name is Elizabeth. Pink doll has never met her, but she loves him very much. Pink doll belongs with her and green doll wants to return pink doll to hismother." Daniel carefully said the word that has always spelt in front of Kurt.

Ever since Kurt was a baby Daniel knew that one day he would teach Kurt about Elizabeth and share his hopes to reunite them. During these times Kurt was too young and incapable of keeping a secret, even at the age of fourteen the same concern still applied. However, Daniel no longer has time to wait. Kurt's fifteenth birthday was only a two months away. He could not chance Kurt's life.

"Return me where?"

The older boy didn't know whether to be relief or scared that Kurt easily associated himself as the pink doll. "Some place far away from here. I know it sounds scary, but trust me. This is for the best. I want to help you."

Kurt stopped listening to Daniel when the other human said 'far away.' The place the brunette was describing sounded too familiar to the planet Blaine taught him about.

"If you were to leave me and go with Daniel, then Daniel would get bored of you and he would abandon you someplace far away and scary. Sebastian's human doesn't care for you. Hehatesyou."

"Go away!" Kurt screamed. "You're going to leave me!"

"Shh-shh."

Blaine's study was too far away for Daniel to hear if new vampire's footsteps were marching in their direction. He needed to act fast. With no other option Daniel covered Kurt's mouth with his hand. "Just let me show you something. It won't hurt you. Afterwards I'll return you to your play mat unharmed."

Once the teenager stopped resisting, Daniel removed his hand and hoisted Kurt onto his feet. The teenager wasn't nearly heavy as Daniel anticipated him to be, which led to the question of whether or not the belt was charmed to feel heavier t the person wearing it. Together the two human's hobbled towards the window curtains that Daniel was previously staring at.

The older boy was too consumed with Kurt's weight and his personal pain to notice the vampire's unexpected absence following Kurt's outburst.

"Where are you taking me?"

"Just a few more steps." The few steps felt like a lot more. "Kurt, have you ever wondered what's on the other side of this curtains?"

Kurt nibbled on his bottom lip and shook his head a negative. A curtains is just a curtain.

"I'm going to open this curtains and you're going to see an amazing world. It's a world Blaine doesn't want you to see. Once I show you this, then you're going to realize that Blaine kept a lot of things from you, including a woman named Elizabeth." Kurt resecured his hold around Daniel as the other human freed his hands to open the curtains. "Are you ready?"

Kurt did not know what he was ready for, but he agreed nonetheless. With great theatrical presentation Daniel parted the curtains down the middle and the concealing fabrics dispensed in opposite directions. On the other side of the thick fabric was a great body size glass window. The grand window from the third floor playroom overlooked a still moonlit lake and a meadow of wild flowers that led into a dark forest. At the curve of the horizon and above the forest tree tops was the faint outline of mountain peaks.

"Daniel!" Kurt screamed. His previous need to relieve himself was forgotten. "Look!" The older boy carefully held the teenager when Kurt pointed towards the full moon. "It's so pretty!"

"Shh-shh," Daniel whispered. He didn't understand why the vampires have not returned for him yet.

Soft sparkles of hope and amazement shined within Kurt's blue eyes as he turned his head up, down, left and right to all the new wonders. "Look it's a big bathtub." The younger boy pointed towards the cold lake. "I want to go in there." Kurt placed both his hands on the glass and sadly stared down. "Let's go and find Blaine and see if we can go down there."

"No Kurt, you can't tell Blaine about this." Daniel grabbed the curtains and covered the window once more. "Do you believe me? Blaine has kept so much from you. Why doesn't he want you to see all the beauty out there?" The older boy pulled the younger away from the window and back towards the play mat. "I want to save you and return you to your mother. Will you let me?"

Kurt sadly lied back down on the rug and stared at the closed curtains. He desperately wanted to stare out the window again. His answer to the question was forced aside when the playroom door opened and Blaine returned.

"Does my good pet need to use the toilet?" The older vampire charmingly smiled at Kurt and picked his human off the floor.

Daniel nervously sat on his stool and closed his eyes. How could he have been so stupid? He should have known Kurt wouldn't have been able to keep his voice low and out of vampire hearing. There's a good chance Jeff, even with his modest human hearing, heard Kurt gasp as he saw the moon for the first time.

Maybe it was wrong of him to show Kurt the night sky, but a punishment from Blaine or Sebastian was worth the joy that it brought Kurt. Even if his plan doesn't work out, it was a nice gift for Kurt to remember him by.

"I have togoto the toilet." Kurt repeated like he did with Nick and Sebastian.

Blaine laughed. "Then off we go."

The playroom became quiet after Blaine and Kurt left. Sebastian didn't stomp into the room and demand an explanation. Blaine didn't appear to be the least bit mad and no one was punishing him at length. How could the vampires not have heard? Kurt was practically shouting with excitement.

The mild temperature in the playroom didn't settle well for its lone occupant. For better or for worse, he would do his best to rescue Kurt from the horrors awaiting him. Kurt needed to run away.
