Slave to Love Part 15
The Grand Ball

It was hell. The two months that followed Duo's submission to Dekim, Relena's life turned from bad to worst. She refused to sleep with Dekim and the king wasn't happy at all.

Duo was also having a rough time, although to everyone he was Death, ready to kill Dekim when he got the chance, inside ever so slowly he was dying.

His living moments were spent being used by the guards, his evenings were spent warming Dekim's bed, and his sleeping moments were filled with the sight of Heero's head and Treize and Zech's last moments alive. His hatred for Dekim grew with every moment they spent together. And none more so then the night when Duo returned to the chambers, which were once his and Heero's and now belonged to Dekim, to find Relena curled up naked on the bed crying.

"RELENA!"

She raised her tear streaked face to him and he raced to the bed and pulled her tightly to his chest.

"I c-c-c-ould-d-d-d-n't-t s-s-top h-him-m." She sobbed out and Duo looked down at the bed sheets, blood covered them and Relena's thighs.

Just then the door opened and Dekim walked in. His mouth curled into a cruel smile to see his wife and slave on his bed.

Duo ignored the man that was the cause of all this pain and continued to smooth Relena down as she started to mutter Dorothy's name over and over.

Dekim walked to the bed and leaned down, his lips touched Duo's shoulder.

"You have never looked so sexy." He purred into Duo's ear before licking it. Duo shivered and pushed the man away and helped Relena from the bed. Duo wrapped the covers around Relena and picked her up, cradling her in his arms, he exited the room and headed towards Sally's office.

Dekim growled as his slave walked out and turned and stalked after Duo.

"What happened?!" Sally cried as she spotted the blood covered Queen.

"Look after her. Get Dorothy from the kitchens to comfort her." Duo ordered Sally, placing Relena on a bed and kissed her forehead.

"Rape." Sally whispered as Relena rocked herself back and forth.

"When the time comes, he will pay dearly for everything he has done."

Duo hated himself, hated the thing he had become. He tried to protect everyone, to be the way Heero had been but he seemed to be failing every time he did.

Dekim walked into the medical room and hissed at Duo.

"What do you think you are doing?"

"Relena needs medical care." Duo said covering Relena in clean blankets that Sally had just passed him.

Dekim wasn't happy with that answer. He grabbed Duo and pressed him against a wall.

The girls screamed but Dekim didn't care. His hands pinned Duo's hands above his head and Duo cursed himself for being so weak.

"Never walk away from me!!!" Dekim growled before seizing Duo's lips in a painful kiss. Duo bite down on the tongue invading his mouth and Dekim dropped him from the floor and slapped him.

"Bitch." Dekim hissed again before strolling out of the room.

Duo rolled his tongue in his mouth and tasted blood. He winced.

"Are you alright Duo?" Sally asked.

Duo raised his face to her and nodded. "Look after Relena."

A week later, Relena had become a permanent visitor to Dekim's bed. When Dekim wasn't there Duo showed Relena the pleasure of sex with a man. Dekim wanted a child; Relena didn't wish to bare his.

"How can I bring HIS child into the world!? He's a monster." She yelled pacing the room, Duo looked at her, his violet eyes soft and compassionate.

"Relena this may be a bad idea but... if he wishes for you to bare a child, who says it has to be his?"

Relena stopped moving and looked at Duo. "You mean?"

Duo nodded.

"He would kill us if he found out."

"Who said he will? It will save you the pain." Duo moved to her and took her hands. "I'll be gentle. I promise." He whispered before taking her lips so softly in a kiss.

*3 months later*

"There will be a ball tomorrow to celebrate me and my wife's first child!!!"

Relena smiled across at Duo who was kneeing beside the throne like the good slave he should be. Relena had asked Sally the ways to prevent pregnancy and had been told that after sleeping with Dekim she should wash herself out straight away. The baby was Duo's, she and him slept with each other everyday to make sure it would be. Duo smiled back.

*   *   *

The next evening Relena was dressing in her chambers when Quatre quickly hurried in.

"What's wrong?"

"Duo is on the war path."

"Why?"

"Dekim."

"He is always the problem but... we have to live with him."

"He plans on killing him tonight."

Relena gasped and looked round quickly.

"What?"

"Duo is going to kill Dekim tonight. When the clock strikes 12."

*   *   *

Duo was growling to himself. Being Dekim's slave meant he had to dress like a sex slave. He was wearing a pair of tight black leather pants and that was it! His long hair was loose, flowing down his back reaching mid thigh length. The pants he wore came to knee length showing off Duo's perfect slender legs. There was a thin black collar around his neck telling everyone he belonged to Dekim. He was also being made to serve everyone else in the ball, and he wasn't serving food.

Dekim wanted to share Duo with his guests.

Nearly time.

Duo hurried back towards where Dekim was drinking. Relena was beside him, her long golden hair loose and her dress was a light blue matching her eyes.

"Duo."

Duo stopped and looked around. He could have sworn someone has just whispered his name but there was only one person near enough to him to say that and that was an old beggar.

"Wait!"

Duo hurried after the man that was bent double, a cloak covering his face.

"Ladies and Gentlemen it is time!" Quatre's voice rang out across the Throne Room and Duo walked towards his place and knelt beside Dekim. Relena sat on Dekim's right while Duo was kneeling on the floor by Dekim's left. Dekim's hand moved to rest on Duo's head, his hand carelessly stroking the silk strands.

"Thank you all. It has been a magical evening." Dekim smiled at his guests.

Then...

"SIR! There's an unwanted guest here." Two guards came forward dragging the old beggar Duo had just seen forward.

Dekim's face lost its smile. "Who is he?"

The beggar gave a yell and with amazing strength threw the guards off him. But no one can fight over 100 people at once. With in seconds the not so old beggar was being held again.

"Remove that cloak!" Dekim ordered standing up and walking forward a little.

One of the guards reached over the man and tugged the cloak off.

The man defiantly wasn't old. He was about Duo's age with messy dark brown hair wearing baggy peasant clothes. His face was bowed and no one could see it.

"Who are you?" Dekim snapped at the youth.

The face rose slowly, a smile forming on the beautiful face before them. Dark prussian eyes narrowed at Dekim.

"You don't remember me?" A deep smooth voice asked.

Dekim turned pale and took a shaken step back.

"No, you... you should be dead."

"Dead men walk the Earth avenging their loved ones."

Dekim took other step back.

Duo was shocked.

"I've come to take back what is rightfully mine." His dark eyes flickered to where Duo was kneeing and their eyes met.

"Heero."
