Title: The Emperor's Den - Chapter 1 - An afternoon drive (nosex, M, b) Description: The Emperor's Den; a secret Gentlemen's club whose existence is known only to some of the richest and most powerful men in the world. Even amongst the elite of the elite, membership is exclusive and by invitation only. The Den caters to a certain appetite that few men can truly understand much less appreciate. The Emperor's Den provides unlimited and unrestricted access to young boys of all ages, races, shapes, and sizes from all over the world. These young boys are handpicked, cream of the crop, and receive extensive ongoing training in sexual pleasure. Whatever the fetish, whatever the desire; not only will these boys perform beyond any expectations; they will do so gladly. Their sole and only purpose in life is to pleasure their masters. Prologue: Eight year old Nicholas (Nico) Hernandez was identified as candidate for the Den while playing by himself at a public water park. The recruiter described the boy as having a smooth natural medium tan skin complexion; short and skinny with a cute little bubble butt. The boy has girl-like physique with long wavy, shoulder length dark brown hair; which compliments his girlish appearance. The boy seems to be very shy and timid, although he also seems to have a natural curiosity of other children and adults. The recruiter noticed that the boy frequently was staring at the barefeet of other boys, while rubbing his own foot at the same time; he also appears to have an unconscious foot fetish. The Emperor's Den - Chapter 1: An afternoon drive Nico gradually awoke to the gentle vibrations and sounds of a moving car. He kept his eyes closed for a moment. He groaned in discomfort; his head hurt, he felt dizzy, and his throat was dry as a bone. He was still in his pajamas and he didn't remember getting into a car at all. The last thing he remembered was falling asleep in his own bed at night. "Mommy...?" he moaned as he slowly opened his eyes. His vision was blurry; the light hurt and blinded him. "Dad...?" he said to the male-like figure driving the car. Nico slowly sat up when the figure did not respond. He rubbed his eyes and his sight began to clear. It was then Nico realized that he was not in his parent's car; and the person driving was neither his mom or dad. "Where am I? Who are you? What am I doing here?" Nico asked in quick succession. "You're in my car." said the stranger. "My name is Dave, and I am a recruiter." he continued. "You are here because I am taking you to the Emperor's Den." he concluded with no further detail. Nico put his hands on his face and shook his head in confusion. "What's Umpire's den?" he asked feebly. Dave chuckled. "No, not Umpire. Emperor. You know, like a King, or a ruler?" he said looking back at Nico through the rear-view mirror. Nico was nervously twiddling his fingers through his long strands of hair. "Umm.. okay... What's Emperor's den?" Dave survived Nico's body language through the mirror. "It's a place where very rich and powerful men [play] with little boys like you." he said emphasizing on the word play. Nico frowned. "I don't wanna play with anyone!" Nico started to whine. "Take me home!" Dave silently ignored Nico's request. "I said I want to go home! I want my mom!" Nico said with panic in his voice. Dave tossed a small plastic bottle of water in the back seat. "You're not going home, and you'll never see your mom again.." he said in a firm tone. "Shut up and drink some water." Nico threw the bottle back at Dave, nearly hitting him in the head. Dave swerved into the other lane and had to swerve back to avoid oncoming traffic. During the confusion Nico darted to the driver's side backseat door; but the door and window handles had been removed. Nico slide to the passenger side backseat door, and the handles there had also been removed. "Listen you little fucker!" Dave said angrily turning his head turned back to look at Nico directly. "Sit the fuck down and shut your fucking mouth you little piece of shit.". Dave's eyes and face were full of rage. Nico started pounding on the windows screaming for help; hoping someone passing by would see and help. "The windows are tinted." Dave said turning his attention back to the road. "Nobody can see or hear you." his voice was returning to a neutral tone. Nico started to cry, and as he did he started to cough and gag. His throat was so dry it hurt. Dave tossed the bottle of water back again. "Drink, please." he said sounding genuine. "The drugs we gave you to keep you sleeping last night dehydrated you." Nico's face was red and burning, his eyes were puffy, and nose was running. He had forgotten about how much his head hurt too. He looked at the bottle then back at Dave. "Dehydrated means you're thirsty." Dave added. "I am REALLY thirsty." Nico thought to himself. Nico struggled with giving in, and drinking the water, or fighting more, but his thirst got the best of him. He unscrewed the bottle and took a little sip. The water was cool going down his throat, and it actually made him feel a little better. He took longer gulp and sighed with a little relief as the water started to hydrate his little body. "Slow down, don't drink too fast." Dave said cautiously. In an act of pure defiance, Nico drank the rest of the water all at once and threw the empty bottle up front. He sat with his arms crossed frowning at Dave. But behind the frown was terrified little boy who wanted to continue crying. "When we get to the Den, you're going to have to quickly learn to respect adults and obey their orders." Dave said warningly. "Otherwise you're going to be in a world of pain." "I thought you said we're going to play?" Nico said mockingly trying to hide his fear. "Oh!" he laughed in sinister tone. "You're definitely going to get played with." Dave said while smirking. "What...?" Nico began to say, but the car started spinning, he felt dizzy and fuzzy. "I told you not to drink so fast." Dave said; but his voice sounded echoey and distant. "Mm-mommy I-- I don't feel-- I don't feel good." Nico mumble was barely audible. "Lay down kid." Dave's disembodied voice said from a million miles away. "Mommy...." Nico muttered again. His head felt heavy, he could no longer keep his eyes open. His body which was no longer under his command flopped down on the seat. He tried to force his eyes open one last time with all force he could muster but it was futile. Everything grew dark, and he was asleep.
