-
Salim stifled a yawn as he read another book from the castle’s extensive library. He stretched languidly on one of the many lavish chaise lounges around the castle, the dappled light of the room’s many candles and colourful hung fabrics dancing across his mostly bare skin.
This evening’s twilight was calm, peaceful, and suddenly broken by the familiar click of the Captain of the Guard’s heels approaching. Salim’s eyes stayed squarely eyes on the page, continuing his reading.
The steady click of footsteps continued like clockwork behind him, until they stopped.
Salim licked his finger, and turned the page,
“Must you…” Jason cleared his throat behind him, dropping his formal voice to speak more naturally. “...You really gotta dress like that all the time?”
Salim shrugged, incidentally slipping a translucent strap from his bare shoulder. “It is the harem uniform. It is important to always be ready for our king.”
He heard the guard cough before saying, voice rough, “Ready?”
“Yes.” Salim finally tore his gaze from his book to look over his shoulder. “Ready, warm, and waiting.”
“Waiting.”
“Mhm.”
As Salim took in the reddening of the tips of the other man’s ears, he turned back to his book nonchalantly, only to hear the guard scoff, and murmur under his breath.
“As if he would…”
“No?” Salim asked innocently, looking back to catch the Captain off-guard. “Do you think I’d be left unwanted? That I’m not desirable?”
“W-well, I…” Jason caught himself and glared, his accent thickening as he growled, “Don’t try n’ trick me with your seductive wiles, you harlot. I ain’t fallin’ for it, and last time was just-.”
“Last time?” Salim shrugged, unbothered, as he turned back to his book. “I assumed you were just following orders.”
Jason clicked his heels, and Salim could practically hear his posture straightening with loyal pride. “Of course!”
“I belong to the king, after all.”
The other’s voice faltered. “O-of course.”
“Mm,” Salim hummed in agreement, flipping a page. “Well, I won’t keep you from your duties. I bid you a pleasant evening, Captain.”
After a moment’s pause as Salim continued to read, he heard the clicks of the Captain’s shoes once more as he marched away.
...and then after another moment, he marched right back.
“I am loyal to my liege,” the Captain hissed from behind the chaise lounge, “I would never betray my king’s ownership.”
Salim nodded, flipping another page. “It’s very admirable.”
“It’s my responsibility as Captain to make sure you remain untouched by anyone but my king,” Jason continued, voice stern.
“Your royal duty, of course.”
“And I…” The Captain’s voice faltered, as he swallowed. His tone quieted, softened. “...If I were to stay... close to you...” He hesitated. “...it would ensure no man could touch you.”
Salim blinked. He finally slid his eyes away from the page, just slightly tilting his head back towards the other man, just enough to show he was listening.
“…True.”
“No man could…” The Captain murmured as Salim felt the his gloved finger trail ever so lightly up his thigh, brushing the fabric there just a touch higher. “…steal you away in the night...”
“Mmm.” Salim hummed, not moving away from his touch.
“No man could…” The Captain’s fingers dipped under the soft fabric to caress the bared skin. “...peel away your clothes.”
Salim’s breath caught, nodding.
“No man could…” Jason’s fingers trailed up his side to his bare shoulder, to stroke up his neck. “...could ravage you until you could not walk.”
Salim shivered, letting out a quivering breath. He turned to finally look at the Captain, his dark eyes looking up through his eyelashes as he whispered.
“No man… but you. Captain.”
Jason sucked in a breath, eyes dark and entranced, until they widened. He grimaced, clicked his heels, and promptly marched away.
Salim watched after him, before letting out a breath and turning back this his book... before the Captain’s heels quickly clicked back into the room until he was standing right in front of him.
“If it were to happen,” Jason spoke quickly, laboured, “it’d be best if he ain’t never found out, right?”
Salim tilted his head and quirked his eyebrow innocently.
“Found out what?” He asked as he let his legs fall open.
Jason panted, ripping open the clasps off of his chest armour as he stepped forward. “Fuckin’ right.”
-
The harem worker lay beneath him, legs spread wide as Jason sunk his cock into him, in and in.
Ready, warm, and waiting.
The Captain hiked up Salim’s leg higher, throwing it over his shoulder so he could fuck in deeper, make the man beneath him gasp breathlessly and claw at his back, fold him in half to bite into the crook of his neck, make him whine as he sucked at that dark soft skin that tasted of honey and oud.
“C-Captain...” Salim clutched to his neck, panting against his ear. He pressed his lips against him, and gave a low whisper.
“Do you think me desirable?”
Jason paused, feeling the smirk against his ear. He growled, “Your mouth’s prettier when it’s shut.”
But as the man beneath him laughed, delighted and warm, Jason couldn’t help but steal that mouth with his own in a kiss, quieting him properly until he could only whimper in pleasure.
Perhaps the Empress’ attention has been too diligently applied.
Kalani sighed as she wearily eyed the radius of thirty something guards that encircled them. They were all thankfully dressed in traveling leathers for the trek to more fertile hunting grounds, but the sheer amount of people was going to scare off any potential prey.
“I doubt we will be successful now.” Kalani petted Bhulat who had refused to walk alongside the horses. Instead he decided to drape on the horses neck looking like a secured kill instead of a vigilant predator.
Aurdis nudged her horse forward, keeping pace with Kalani’s Tinker Cob. “It’ll become more wooded as we head up, I’m sure we can persuade some to stay behind and watch our mounts.”
Kalani tilted her head in consideration. “Unless we can convince all of them to stay behind, I can’t imagine we’ll be having game meat for dinner.”
There was a quickening of hooves and an anguished neigh from Aurdis’ Friesian as Elena’s beige Appaloosa rammed its chest into the dark horse’ rump.
The Friesian had half a mind to kick, but Aurdis tug sharply on the reins and bought her mount to the right to allow Elena to ride between herself and Kalani.
“Ah, I’m sorry, I just… the guards were so silent and just marching behind me and it was… It was making me uncomfortable, but I didn't know how to stop in time.”
“Think nothing of it, sister,” Aurdis smiled, “if I had known you were unaccustomed to riding I would’ve offered a lesson.”
Elena blushed, averting her eyes, unsure if Aurdis had meant it as an innuendo. Her mare was much happier now that its rider had loosened the bit, heels were no longer clenching into their stomach. Sorelle weaved around the horses legs sprinting about to sample all the new scents.
Kalani seemed a million miles away, fixated on the rustle and crunch of the thirty something guards and the fact that her hunting trip felt ruined by over vigilance.
They spent the rest of the ride in relative silence. Aurdis was clearly amused by how Ouroboros kept nosing at her Friesian's flickering ears; trying to encourage their mount to a canter.
The thicket of trees began to cluster as they neared the mountain range. It forced the horses to walk in pairs then in singles. The guards still busied themselves, shadows in the flickering canopy. Their horses were well trained and had experienced the guard’s actions numerous times before and barely paid them any attention.
Even before Kalani had dismounted she was already speaking to their minders. “We’ll need guards to stay with our horses.”
“Three of my troop can remain with the mounts.” The head guard stepped forward, his eyes cast respectfully to the ground.
“Three?!” Kalani near growled and approached the guard, who was a good head taller and very much so bigger than all the wives.
“Milady?”
Aurdis placed her hand on Kalani’s elbow and another on the small her waist to calm the other woman. “These were wedding presents from the Empress, she said they were prized beyond coin value.”
The guard’s eyebrows knitted together, his consternation growing at what could potentially be trouble for him.
“These animals were the first present our wife gave us, they require more than a mere handful of guards to watch over them.” Aurdis’ Friesian stepped forward, lazily letting it's cheeks sit heavily onto her shoulder. She petted it’s ebony face absentmindedly. “I think we can manage on our own for the rest of the hunt, perhaps the entire troop can remain here until we return?”
“That’s unthinkable, however prized they may be, you are the Empress’ consorts!” He crossed his arms. “At least a quarter has to remain with the three of you, this is non-negotiable!”
Aurdis gave Kalani a nudge, making the other woman immediately step up and take the guard’s hand in hers, shaking it firmly. “Deal.”
The guard’s smile turned to a frown, but with a shake of his head he started to laugh deep from his belly. “I can envision the Empress having her hands full with the three of you.”
yo can we pleaseget a harem sex fic 👀👀 Nadia giving them the strap or just being an amazing top in any way would be fire
OooOooooOooooooooh myyyyy cooooooodddd. I am so excited that you've asked for thisssssssss. I promise you there will be so much content coming out for the harem!au, and I will definitely write one for the strap scenario, there's kinda one already in the making.
On the flip side, think about XL’s harem lol everyone would genuinely try to fight for his love and HC is like the top concubine you see in dramas that is actively trying to kill off everyone else
OKAY WHERE I THOUGHT OF HUA CHENG’S HAREM AS AN UNHOLY TORTURE HOLE XIE LIAN’S HAREM WOULD BE ACTUAL PARADISE!!! uwu
I just imagine it being v beautiful and it’s just full of love and support (except for jealous Fafa of course lmao)
Tbh I can’t really imagine XL having a harem, but like if he did I feel like it would just be like him swooping in and saving people from bad situations and keeping them as wives/husbands but never actually touching them so it’s just a harem in title uwu
IDK I CAN’T IMAGINE XL WITH ANYONE BUT HUA CHENG??? (okay maybe Jun Wu but ajfsafj;flf it’s a guilty ship) but like I want him to be with a good, non-trash person and??? That describes like three characters???
Alright maybe Feng Xin because he’s the god of big dick energy and that has to mean something :)))))) and FX never stopped being loyal okay fight me and he deserves to be happy in XL’s Happy Harem
I’d toss Pei Ming in there just for chaos honestly I need him to hit on Xie Lian a lot and Hua Cheng just breaks all of his fingers or something idk
Okay the more I’ve thought about this I really agree Anon, everyone would be fighting to be with Xie Lian and there’s only one way to remedy this which is big orgies
