The Dream

((ATTENTION! This story and it\'s characters are the product of my own imagination. If they bear any resemblance to yours I am sorry.))

Okay…well my story hasn\'t been up long because of the transfers but my prologue finally came back. So I thought that I would go ahead and add the next chapter. I hope you people like it and please be gentle, I\'m still learning to make a great story.
Happy Reading!

Prince Ki was pacing around his room. His father wanted everything in the coronation to perfect and it was driving Ki crazy. First off, his father was building his a strong army to protect the castle during the coronation. Second, he was taxing people to death to pay for the food and decorations and all the other nonsense that would just wind up irritating the Prince. Third, and probably the most horrid thing of all, they were going to Lord Demos to find himself one of the many slaves Demos kept to have for himself. His father claimed that since Ki had a particular interest that was similar to Demos\' that as payment for a better position in the kingdom Demos would give Ki one of his best slaves to keep his son amused while he searched for a wife. However the furthest thing from Ki\'s mind was looking for a wife. He wanted a life partner, male or female, to share his heart with and to make him happy. But his father said that it would take far to long to find someone with the qualities that Ki was looking for and that just settling for one woman would pay off in the end. Ki had hit his father for that one. He decided, for the sake of his father\'s reputation, to accept the slave. However there was one condition he was going to insist upon, he chose who he would have.

Ki looked stopped pacing and turned in front of the oversized mirror his father insisted on giving to him for his sixteenth birthday five years ago. It looked like Ki had just rolled out of bed, which he did…sort of. That morning he had pushed the servants from his room and locked the door so he couldn\'t be bothered. He had woken up a little angry that morning. Ki\'s hair was a mess. The long, midnight tresses were tangled up into a ball at the base of his neck. His night clothes were wrinkled and twisted into knots at the bottom of the shirt where Ki had been twisting it around his fingers in frustration. He slipped the shirt off and threw it aside. He sighed miserably at the long, disfiguring scar that traveled from his right shoulder to his abdomen. The pale scar stood out horrendously against his bronzed skin and it made him sick to look at it. He quickly stepped out of his pants and stepped into his bath house. He let the steam that filled the room warm his skin before slowly stepping into the hot water. He hissed in shock as the near boiling water surrounded his legs and gritted his teeth as he lowered the rest of himself in. When the water was up to his neck he relaxed his body and let the warmth calm his nerves. He ducked his head under the water and lifted it up quickly. He grabbed a nearby brush and began de-tangling his hair. As he ran the brush through his hair he began remembering the dream he had the night before which caused him to wake in a foul mood.

***Ki ran his finger\'s down the boys pale skin, light scars from years of abuse glittered in the moonlight. Ki kissed his way down his body, pausing over each scar to seemingly kiss them all away. Ki felt a shudder beneath his fingers and knew that his partner was enjoying his ministrations. He looked up into the face of his lover and gasped at the radiant beauty before him. He had never seen such a beautiful face on a male and it made his heart swell with passion and caring for the fragile angel beneath him. He wrapped his arms around the boy protectively and pulled him into his chest. Just as he was about to make love to the boy he felt himself getting pulled away into the darkness.***

Ki awoke to one of the servants rousing him for the day and became infuriated. He slapped her and threw her from his room, chasing the others out as well. He slammed the door and began pacing in his room

Ki smiled at the vision of loveliness his mind had concocted. He knew there was a reason for that dream the night before he went to Demos\' manor so he decided to choose one of Demos\' slaves that looked as much like his dream love as he could possibly find. A smile graced Ki\'s face as he grabbed a wash cloth and began to scrub his toned body clean. Four years of military training had certainly paid off for Ki. He was more built than any of the other soldiers and was one of the strongest as well. He loved that his father had let him join the soldiers in battle without telling him that it was improper because he was a Prince. Although it had taken a long time to earn the trust of the soldiers he had made true friends that he knew would serve him well once he was king. Hearing a knock on the door he demanded that they go away but was startled to hear his father reply.

\"Don\'t tell me what to do son,\" Ki\'s fathers voice sounded. \"I\'m coming in anyway so please don\'t throw anything.\" The King slowly entered and walked over to his son who was still neck deep in bath water. \"I heard you were quite upset this morning. Mind telling me what is on your mind?\"

Ki looked up at his father and held out his hand to greet him. \"Nothing Father,\" Ki said politely. \"I was just upset that I had been roused out of a pleasant dream. What brings you to my room?\"

Ki\'s father knelt down and placed a hand on his son\'s shoulder. \"It\'s almost time to leave for Lord Demos\' manor. So hurry and get ready. I\'ll meet you in the courtyard in half an hour.\"

Ki nodded and returned to bathing.

Half an hour later Ki was dressed and heading down the stairs. He passed his father in the courtyard and headed for his carriage. Two years prior Ki had told his father that he was tired of riding in his father\'s old fashioned carriage and wanted one of his own. His father finally gave in and had a new carriage designed for his son. Ki chose his own stallions, black Arabians, for his carriage as a representation of his own taste which was very different from his fathers whose used only strong mares and all different colors and breed. As they made their way across the countryside to get to Demos\' manor Ki did nothing but stare out the window. He wished with all his heart that his dream wasn\'t misleading and that he would find such an exotic beauty where they were going. Ki began to drift off back into slumber and his dream lover soon was in front of him again and Ki smiled in his sleep. But soon the carriage jerked and Ki was brought back from his dreams and he snarled.

\"What the hell are you doing?!\" Ki yelled to his driver.

\"Forgive me Sire,\" the young man said quietly. \"But we have arrived at Lord Demos\' Manor.\" The man knew Ki was just upset. They had worked together in the military, in fact Ki had saved his life during the war a few years back. He smiled as he jumped down to let Ki out of the carriage. \"Ready to go?\" he asked with a smirk.

Ki stepped out and shoved his friend\'s shoulder. \"It isn\'t funny Darin. You woke me.\" Darin only grinned wider.

Ki sighed in defeat. \"Alright,\" Ki said. \"Let\'s go see Lord Demos.\"

\"Yes Sire,\" Darin said happily. Together the two joined Ki\'s father in the manor, who had arrived a few minutes before them.
