After he had spoken Nino fainted again his breath coming out in short soft pain filled gasps. Jun watched the boy sleeping beside him, still shocked that in spite of everything he had seen pity in those smouldering eyes. If he was a witch why would he pity him? He would expect triumph, delight but not pity. If the boy wasn’t a witch though, and he hadn’t placed a curse on him why hadn’t he been able to stop the longing… The desire he had for the boy like he had been able to before. No there had to be a curse, he couldn’t be a freak, a sin against the church… But there was no denying the genuine pity that he had seen. Jun covered the boy’s body with a cover and then found himself stroking his pretty face with trembling fingertips. Nino let out a muffled sob that sounded a lot like ‘Please no’ and Jun moved away from him feeling like he had been scolded. He lay at the edge of the bed his body needing sleep after its ‘exercise’ but his mind and his heart refused to allow him. He got out of the bed and went to the small wash area. He looked at his face in the mirror and felt sick at the person that was looking back at him. He was the one that had been cursed, he was the one that was being tortured so why… Why was he feeling all this guilt?

He splashed his face with cold water trying to shake what he was feeling, he shivered as the water splashed on his skin. He scrubbed himself roughly with a brush, until his skin was flushed pink and sore. When he realised that cold water alone wasn’t going to help he took out his cane and whipped himself repeatedly, unaware that the boy had woken, until he heard a whimper, turning he saw Nino staring at him, his eyes wide with fear and pain. Jun dropped the cane, actually fearful that Nino would think that he was going to use it on him.

“You’re awake” He stated needlessly pulling his shirt letting himself relax when he felt of the stinging in the wounds on his back as the rough fabric hit them. The gypsy nodded slowly and Jun noticed him shifting around in the bed, his face wincing with pain.

“I… Can I… Go?” He asked and Jun shook his head, his heart stopping at the thought of letting his gypsy go now, he still wasn’t… cured…how could he let him go?

“No” he answered shortly

“Bu-t… But I… You prom-ised…” Nino gasped and Jun tensed, it was true that he had given his word but he couldn’t and wouldn’t let him go until he could stop the want he felt in his heart,

“I promised that I would free you when the curse had broken, I still want you so you will stay…” he said calmly and coldly as he straightened his hair looking away from the boy

“But… You lied… You said…” The boy stammered and Jun could tell that he was starting to cry with fear. There would be no pity in his eyes now, Jun thought and gave a small sigh before his eyes narrowed and he clenched his fists

 “I didn’t lie… When I am free of you I will let you go… After all of the crimes you have committed, you should be thankful that I am een considering letting you go…” He snapped angrily, having the pain on his back helped calm him a little, reminding him that none of this was his fault it also served as constant reminder that he was in the right, the gypsy needed to be punished for putting him through this. Those fake claims against the gypsy would come in useful yet again it seemed.

“I-I h-av-en’t do-ne an-ythin-g!” Nino sobbed and when Jun looked at the bed he saw that the small boy was shaking wildly. A wave of guilt clawed its way into his heart, he touched his back adding to the pain he was feeling. “Plea-se…”

“I…You… What’s your full name?” Jun asked in a softer tone than he had ever used with the gypsy before and Nino wiped his eyes with the back of his hand as his mouth fell open, a tiny bit of hope shining in his face.

“I-I… I-I’m ju-s-t Ni-n-o, I do-don’t have a-ny ot-her na-me” The gypsy whispered in a choked voice and Jun remembered that at some point last night he had tried to strangle him, his eyes flicked down to the smooth neck and saw dark bruises in the shape of a hand on his smooth skin. More guilt stabbed at him but he pushed it away, or at least he tried to

“Your parents just named you Nino? What kind of name is that!?” he snapped obviously he was lying, what kind of parent would just call their child Nino? Even for gypsies that name was too strange.

“Sato… Sat-osh-i Oh-no the el-der na-med me Nino…I gue-ss I a-m Ni-no Ohn-o” Nino told him his voice shaking with fear, and his tears restarted quickly “I-I don’t have parents…” Jun blinked in surprise at that and he looked up sharply at the gypsy reading the truth in his eyes.

“So what happened to your parents?” Jun muttered and the gypsy’s answer surprised him and reminded him a little of his own life,

“I do-n’t kno-w… No-bo-dy do-es  I w-as lef-t out-sid-e the lea-der’s ca-rava-n…”  

“And when was that? How old are you?” Jun asked not why he was asking these questions none of this mattered right, he was just a gypsy witch but he couldn’t escape the pity he had seen.

“I t-urn-ed 16 las-t we-ek…” Nino answered slowly. Jun felt his heart thump once hard against his ribs. He wanted to ask him more but he was aware that soon the morning guards would be here to start their rotation, there was no way that he could be seen like this with the gypsy

“Get up, get washed and dressed…” he said getting up from the bed about to grab the boy’s arm, but Nino gave a cry flinching away from him, fear clear on his face. Jun gave a grunt, pulling on his trousers “Get up!” He growled and Nino scrambled to his feet and Jun pretended not to notice the way he limped or the dried cum and blood on the back of his legs and ass. The gypsy hobbled his way to the water Jun had used and started washing himself as the guard went to collect the thread bare clothes Nino had been wearing. When he came back Nino was scrubbing himself even harder than Jun had been doing and the guard saw blood over his face from where he had taken off a layer of skin. He grabbed his hand, stopping the brush and almost throwing him back down onto the bed “What do you think you’re doing?”

“I’m di-rty… Yo-u sai-d… I cur-sed… Yo-u… I wan-t to… go h-ome” Nino said rocking backwards and forwards, his nails gripping at his arms so tightly the nails had broken skin as his body shook. “Plea-se… le-t me… G-o”

“I… I… Okay… Okay I promise that I’ll let you go…” Jun said slowly and Nino looked at him with doubt in his dark brown eyes “When your people leave in four days, I will let you leave with them… But until then you stay with me and do as I say…If not you will be sent to the church and killed for your crimes, do you understand?” He said stroking at the blood stained face. Nino flinched and trembled under his touch but he nodded slowly.
