For such a traumatized Fur, he was doing very well with serving the tables. The food I made for him really calmed him down, even though he was uncertain if he wanted to eat it. I had to eat my own cooking before he would eat what I made to show him it was not poisoned. I don't blame him though, he has been through a lot and I knew what he was going through.

The only real issue was the fact that he only knew the language of the mainland, and not the one the Britari spoke natively. It took me a good bit to teach him some of the basic sentences and words, and so far he was doing good, though not entirely understanding. However he has only had to grab me a few times to get something translated, and he seemed to memorize what was said on the spot. There had always been rumors that felines had good memory, some even better than us Canidae, I had never actually seen one learn. I will admit however at this point that he was having far less trouble than I was.

The Mistress had assigned me to do nothing besides watch and train the panther, and clean if he was doing alright. I was thankful for this because it gave me time to listen in on the conversations around me without being heavily distracted. I really wanted to know when the Britari were going to leave this damned island so the local clients would come back.

"Hey Alki!" I heard Fauna call from the bar "Can you do me a favor. I need more bay leaves from the garden and I'm too lazy to get them... I'll watch your pet for you."

"He's not my pet!" I exclaimed back in a loud whisper. "And is that the best excuse you have?"

"No, the actual reason is you put them in those damn hanging troughs and I can't reach."

"Troughs? I don't remember having any cattle around the backyard. Are they also hanging. Maybe I can ask them to get the sullied plants."

"Alki... I may have a hurt back but I can still throw a wine glass at you"

I put my paws up and surrendered, bowing graciously at her. We both chuckled at our own little amusement before I stood. "I'll be back in a few. Make sure you keep an eye on him, he might be doing good but he is far from an expert."

"You have my word... Sire." she grinned turning back to clean the dishes, keep an ear affixed on Krishna's location. He had been doing alright by himself for a while now, and it was not busy so it was not a concern. Plus Fauna was the one that trained me so I knew she was capable, though she had been much younger back then.

I made my way to my room to gain access to the backyard. I wish I was going to my room with a client rather than for some nasty tasting leaves. Fauna said it gave the fish we smoked a more earthy taste, and I didn't doubt her for a second. I also refused to eat any fish she cooked with those leaves on it, even if it were leftovers from the day.

Entering the backyard and retrieving the leaves, I noticed it was considerably louder out by the port today than normal. Setting the leaves on the granite slab protruding from the foundation of the house, and walked over to the two story wall and focused my ears straight in front of me. Noticing that it was in fact louder, I grabbed a large empty clay pot and set it down upside-down and stood on top of it. I reached for the top of the wall and dug my claws in to the top. I pulled myself up so I could look over and was surprised by what I saw. Not only where there twice as many ships in the area of the port, there were also two different kinds. The one was Britari, which looked Noble and Clean. The other was unknown to me completely, and it looked like its sails were worn, and the ship looked dirty and well used. It was also obvious that it had been in a battle, if not many. I was too far from the port to discern any more details, and that only peaked my curiosity further.

I climbed off the wall and went back to gather the leaves for Fauna, while thinking to myself who the strange ships could possibly belong to. I quickly made my way back to Fauna, giving her the leaves without a word. I took a quick look over at Krishna who was still doing fine, and it was still not busy.

Feeling comfortable leaving him be for a while longer under Fauna's care, and went to find the Mistress. I went back into the hallway and made my way to her office. When I arrived I was greeted by a closed door which was very unusual unless she was being visited my member from the council. However I did not hear any voices coming from the other side of the door, and that made me even more curious as she hardly ever left her office during business hours unless she was in the main hall with us. I tapped on the door three time and waited a moment to see if she would answer, which she did not.

Accepting that I would have to wait until I got the answers to my questions, I went back into the main hall and walked over to Fauna who was talking to Krishna. Apparently in my short absence it had gotten more busy and people were walking through the doors at a steady pace now. Of course like usual it was mostly Britari with a few locals, and all the girls were getting clients at a steady pace now. However I did notice two unusual looking Furs standing in the corner of the hall by the door.

One of the furs appeared to be a equine with chestnut colored fur on his head, which I assumed was the color of his entire body's fur. He was dressed in heavy, polished black leather with tan stripes, more like a skilled hunter or a rogue would wear and had very apparent signs of wear as it will have some minor scrapes and tears He was not tight from the looks of it, rather tailored made and very conforming. He was carrying two exotic looking swords that he had strapped to his back in sheaths, both had gold pawles and white leather grips adorned with appeared to be gems.

The other was what I knew as a cattle dog, which looked pretty stereotypical with a black furred head and ears, tan paws, eyebrows and muzzle, and a mix of grey-silver and that odd blue mixture fur all heavily blended together for body fur. He was wearing what appeared to be very natural, brown colored leather which consisted of a vest and simple functional pants. His arms where adorned with some sort of markings that I did not know and had a fourth moon on the center of his forehead. From what I could see his only weapon was a dagger that was strapped to his left hip.

"You have noticed them too Alki? I honestly have no idea who they are but they aren't interested in any type of service." Fauna whispered walking up behind me.

"Yea, and I'm guessing the ship out in the ports belong to them. From what I could count there were only two, but others may still be out at sea. Have they tried anything yet?"

"You mean like trying to harm anyone?" She cocked an eyebrow and crossed her arms. "No, They have just been standing there whispering to each other watching everyone. The horse appears to be in charge from what I have gathered, but I'm not completely sure on that."

"Has anyone talked to them, asked them anything?"

"Yea, Aino asked them if they needed something, but they simply refused everything from service to water."

"Alright... How is Krishna doing. Sorry I left you for so long, I was trying to find the Mistress."

"Very well actually. He has only needed my help once and that was because someone wanted a special drink that I barely understood. He's been doing everything from cleaning to taking orders for meals."

"Damn, cats really are quick at learning... He makes me look stupid in comparison with how fast he is learning everything."

"Shush Alki, you are far from stupid... You are just getting old."

"Hmm, thanks for reminding me about my age. I'm going to go see if they need something."

"Alright hun, I'll keep an eye on Krishna. Try not to get killed ok? That horse looks well trained not to mention very fit."

I chuckled for a few seconds with Fauna before turning to face the strangely dressed visitors. Leathers were very expensive, and even the council nor the highborn wore them often. However, it could have been that leather had to be imported to the island, where as it could be common clothing for them where they came from.

I made my way up to them, not knowing what to expect, but was hoping that they would treat me different seeing as I was a male. Hoping that they would carry on a conversation and not immediately wanting to get as far away as possible. It didn't take them long to regard me heading there way and the two immediately started whispering to each other. They were doing a very good job at keeping their conversation discreet as they were not using any body language and their expressions did not change, not even the cattle dog's tail was moving.

"Can I help you men?" I asked in very courteous tone. They took a few seconds to look at each other, then back at me with a quizzical look on their face.

"You are a male? You work here in the same way as the females?" the cattle dog asked in a confused tone that suggested the idea that they have never seen a male whore before. They turned back to each other and this time spoke in a manner loud enough to hear, but it was in a different language. It was a very direct sounding language with quite a few harsh sounds, but at the same time sounded like it could be romantic. I was very put off by the sound of the language and the fact that I could not understand them.

"Why do you work here" the cattle dog said to me in a low tone. "Are you forced to work here, a slave? Why does anyone work in a place like this, selling their body to others for sex?"

"Because that is what they owe us, and demanded of" I heard Mistress Eir say loudly from behind me, walking with heavy footsteps. "They or their families own a great dept which they could not pay back, and this is the result. Also there are a lot better here getting paid for sex than some of the other positions they could be holding. It doesn't matter if they are male or female, servants can used in the same ways regardless of gender. Now just who are you Furs, you are not wearing the normal outfits we are used to seeing?"

I could hear the slight venom of her voice, but she was controlling it. Whoever these strange guests were was well above my knowledge and I felt like a runt of a pack. However if I had to put my trust somewhere it would be the mistress, more of less because it was the only thing I knew I could put some trust in.

"Forgive us." the cattle dog spoke up again "We are just curious, we are from a place that is much different. Your culture is very unique, and we do not mean to disrupt it magistrate."

"I'm no magistrate" Mistress Eir waved her paw dismissively "I am however in charge of the facility, and if you have any questions they should be directed to me, not my servants."

"Apologies Mistress, we do not mean to intrude upon the laws". the cattle dog said bowing graciously. "We are visiting and your rules are much different from our own. Also you have many customs our people do not, and many forms of entertainment which are unusual."

"Thank you for your apologies." The mistress replied standing proud not willing to bow down to strangers. "Tell me what is it that you wish to know and I will answer what I can."

The Equine and Canine both look at each other for a second, than back at the Mistress and I. "What we would really like to know is what this island it, and where exactly are we. When we first approached these islands from the North. It was not until we rounded this particular small island did we notice building and other ships."

"The islands are called the Damayanti islands, and they are ruled by the Prabhu Lion clan of the southern mainland. These islands are located eight days travel north of it, and are no bigger than 1 full days walk to circle the island. This is where we keep all of the Fur who have transgressed our laws to be punished by either slavery or becoming indentured servants, and how such determination is concluded is by the level of transgression. "

"So all of these Furs that work here are slaves? All of them have committed some sort of crime defined by your laws?" The cattle dog asked tilting his head showing that he was a little confused

"Not exactly. The Furs I have who work in the house are indentured servants. Their parents were responsible for the crimes that led up to the High Council sending sentries to either capture the parents, or if they are too old or unhealthy to instead take their children My servants are lucky to be working in such an establishment; they are fed, can bath, relax when their work is done, and even take up hobbies if they desire. All that is demanded of them is to make a certain amount of coin within a certain time to pay off the owed dept."

"Working in this establishment selling their body's for sex to pay off owed dept is more desirable than what other types of work?"

"It is better than every other option open to them. You work all day and sometimes nights as a builder, and get to eat only twice a day. Being a field worker where you only get to eat when you get up and when you are done, which is sunrise to sunset. Neither of them have good proper housing and you often share a room with others. You don't get to relax at either one where as here you can, so long as you are making coin of course. I also happen to think of myself as a very fair, distant Mistress"

Mistress Eir could have gone on about the question, but the way she stopped there indicated that she was becoming bored of the questions, and that she either wanted these visitors to either buy something, or leave. By the flicking of her tail I could also conclude that she had better things to do besides babysit some curious sailors. Oddly enough though she had not asked them any further question about where they were from and what their laws were like, which was unlike her. If it was one thing I could say for certain, it was that the Mistress was always curious about outsiders, but she must not be in the mood today to deal with it. Then again they did come in here and were totaling ignorant as to what they were doing and what this island was.

To me however it seemed more than that. The way they asked question, and the order they asked them made me thing they were not as clueless as they were pretending to be. Perhaps that was why the Mistress was getting impatient and irritated. Whether these visitors were a threat, or something else I could not say for sure. Regardless I was going to keep an eye out for them and any more of their kind.

As I was about to leave the Mistress, I saw the wolf dog outside of the door looking in through the glass. I could feel the base of my tail twitching as I held my wagging still. I could not say for certain why I was happy to see the dog, but it was something about him that made me look forward to meeting him. That is until the reality that set in that I was a whore, he was going to pay me for services, then leave to never be seen again.

I let out a sigh and made my way back to the bar. I looked around for Krishna seeing that he was still serving tables and the customers looked calmed which meant he was doing a great job. I took a seat at the bar looking out at the tables which were filling up quickly. It would soon be time to start serving the main meals as I saw the sun was beginning to set through the windows. It was such a beautiful sunset that I let myself go for a moment, relax and just focus on my thoughts, my feelings, and my health. I closed my eyes and let the sun shine through the windows and warm my fur. It felt so good and relaxing that I nearly jumped when I felt a paw on my shoulder. Turning quickly thinking it was the Mistress, I was about to stand until I saw it was the wolf dog's paw on my shoulder.

I tried to stand for what reason I wasn't sure, but I didn't get very far in my efforts as his strong paw forced me to keep sitting. We just stared at each other, his paw still resting on my shoulder. His eyes were the most beautiful hazel I had ever seen in my life, and his face deserved to have such eyes. Up close he was the most well built, craftily sculpted male I had ever had a chance to look at.

He was wearing normal local style clothing, which seemed to fit perfectly on his frame. They looked new so they might have been tailored made, which would not surprise me. His body was built, very tone with muscles making themselves apparent with no shame. However he was not big, nor bulging. He obviously cared about how he looked more than other males since he fur was neatly brushed, and he did not smell like dead fish or salt water. He did smell somehow irresistible, obviously wearing some sort of perfume or scent.

"Are you available?" he finally asked in a low, deep tone that somehow carried a sense of authority even at the low level he asked the question.

"You do realize I am a male right? many people mistake me for a female due to the way I dress." I couldn't help announcing to him in a curt manner. Many potential clients have mistook me for a woman, and when they found out I was a male they got disgusted and insulted me. I took the liberty now days to tell them straight up before I even bothered to get serious with them.

"How can someone make that mistake, I simply don't see it. For one you don't have any signs of tits coming from your chest. Two, you don't have the right hips. Three, your bone structure is different. Need I go on?"

I was surprised by his response, and was stunned as to what to do next. I was thankful that he took my paw into his and squeezed it. It was so strong but at the same time gentle, his paw and wrist nearly twice mine in size. I could see the veins of his forearm through his fur as well as the precise movement of tone muscle as he squeezed my paw.

"Oh my... I've never had a client be so upfront" The truth was I really had never had someone be so caring, even if it was fake. It was just so polite and sincere, mimicking what I could only imagine was what love felt like. "What can of service can I do for you?"

"A massage, maybe a bath as well." the wolf dog replied still looking into my eyes. I nodded and released my paw to allow me to stand.

"The cost of a hot bath is..." I was cut off as he grabbed a small coin purse out of his pants pocket.

"Will this cover everything?" He asked handing me the purse. I opened it noticing that is was Britari currency. "Do you not take our currency? It is 80 shillings."

"We do.. But this is... four times my rate. You could rent the baths for a quarter of a day and still get a message afterwards." I managed to stumble across the words quite graciously by the way I could hear him chuckling.

"Did some shillings make you forget how to speak our language? What else can some coin do?"

"Pay off my dept and free me so I can live what is left of my life" I blurted out without thinking, only to realize the idiocy of what I had said afterwards. "I'm sorry, I said that without thinking. Forgive me Sir."

"I take no offense, I asked and obviously you answered honestly." I felt his paw come to rest on my shoulder giving it a gentle squeeze. "Now about that bath."

"Ah, right Sir follow me. The Baths are located through the back. Included in the Bath is a meal of your choosing and a drink, and since your payment was so generous is there any other requests you would like to make?"

"Not off paw, but if I think of something by time we get baths, I'll let you know."

"As you wish Sir. Do you have any preference on herbs that you wish to add to the water, or do you rather it be without?"

"I'll let you pick that out, I'm sure you have more experience with this than I do."

I couldn't help but smile at the remark. I found something thrilling about the idea of another male letting me be in charge for once, even if it was for something as small as what herbs to place in the water. Not only that but there was something about this dog, I could not place my paw on what but there was something off. To me it really seemed like he wanted more than a fuck and out the door, however I have learned not to let my mind wonder about such fantasy.

We made our way through the backyard up the small staircase and to the baths without further small talk. I could hear his tail wagging behind me, but for what I was not sure. I assumed however that it had been a long time since he had last had a proper bath with hot water, and how good it felt to let your fur soak in all the warmth. Plus the fact that a clean coat of fur always felt better than a dirty greasy one.

I open the door to the baths and allowed him to step inside, excusing myself to go fetch the herbs from the storage closet. I picked out three of my personal favorites which consisted of lavender, lotus leaves, and rose. I knew from experience that they made great stress relievers, as well as a fantastic scent that would cling to fur for a few days.

I returned to the baths finding that the wolf dog had already took the liberty of getting into the pool of water without the herbs. I could not blame him as I image that a life at sea was either hot and suffocating, or cold and damp. Since it was the cold season, no doubt he had been through some cold and damp seas with rain, rough waters, and snow. It was apparent that he heard me reenter the room as he flicked his left ear back, and then relaxed it again.

"Do you still wish for me to place the herbs in the bath?" I asked with courtesy.

"Of course, I just could not wait to enter the water. All the steam and moister looked so tempting." he replied with a even, calm tone which made it very apparent that he was happy.

I kneeled over the small pool placing the herbs in the water. I tried not looking over at the undressed wolf, but the temptation was too great. He had his eyes closed with his head leaned back on the edge of the small poll. I looked further down and saw his wonderfully sculpted torso, and all the muscles that stood out not in bulk, but rather toneness and how firm they were.

I did have some restraint though as I did not bother looking any lower through the water, although the perverted side of me was begging. Sure I had seen dozens of different males naked, and have bedded them, but this one was so different in that certain way I could not place.

"Do you wish to join me?" the wolf dog asked releasing me from the mental battle with myself.

"If you wish. I am yours for the duration of your stay, and I doubt anyone else wants to buy my services anyway." It was my obligation of course to fulfill a clients request regardless of what it might be so long as it would not injure me, however this request was more of a fulfillment to me than a request and I was delighted to be able to join him. However I maintained the mindset that he was going to fuck me and leave, so I didn't show him how much I really enjoyed joining him.

I undressed myself like so many time before in front of other clients, and turned around to show my entire body to him. He let out a low murrr and nodded his head signaling for me to get into the bath. I liked my water a bit hotter than what we gave to clients, and I did not like bathing so late in the day as it took forever to dry out, but I did not have a choice in the manner. I sat down on the edge of the pool and slowly put my footpaws and legs in the water, and lower the rest of my body in with my arms. The pool was deep enough to cover a normal sized fur past their knees, and big enough to accommodate six fully grown men.

He motioned with his paw to get closer to him, so I did and sat down to his right. The water covered both of us up to our shoulders, and smelt absolutely divine with the herbs I had put in. I felt a paw slide up my thigh to my hip, with claws gently scratching through as it did.

"Has any other client ever treated you like this before? Let you relax, feel wanted and appreciated?" the wolf dog asked in a low tone.

"No." I answered back simply. No other client had been as courteous as he has been. They weren't expected to be either since I was a tool just like a builders hammer, or any other object. "Why are you treating me so nicely wolf dog?"

"Felix, Admiral Felix."

"That is a very nice name, simple but unique. At least here, I don't know about where you came from."

"It is just as rare I can assure you, I have never met another with my name. What is your name?"

"Alkibiades, however most call me Alki for short."

"Now that is a truly intriguing name. I have never heard anyone having that name before. Does it have a meaning?" the Felix asked repositioning himself to be seated in front of me.

"My parents told me it meant "violent force". Why they choose that name I am not sure since as far as I know I am neither of those two."

"So are you saying that you have never wanted to be violent, or forceful at any time? Maybe you were this way when being born or as a pup."

"My parents had told me I was difficult to deal with as a young pup. Maybe that is why they named me so"

"Perhaps you still have the ability to be so. I'm sure given the chance you would do everything to leave this place and go back to your parents." Felix grabbed my paws in the water and squeezed them. "Tell me, why don't you leave? Surely it cannot be that hard to leave this house."

I slipped out my right paw from his and raised it out of the water to show him the band. "I can't. The guards at every exit point check for bands, and covering it up is against law." I replied lowering my head to look at the water. "I've tried a few times, but each time I got caught. The only way to leave the island is by ship."

The next thing I knew was that I was being hugged by the wolf dog, who was about twice my size. His silver gray fur rubbing into mine felt so comforting, and his hug made me feel somehow truly happy for once. I let myself sink into him and let him hold me in a way no one had ever before. I could feel him gently rubbing my back, digging his claws gently through my fur. It felt so good I didn't want it to end, I could honestly say I would be happy sitting just like this for an entire day.

"Does this make you happy?" he gently whispered into my ear.

"Yes." My answer was simple, and that is all it needed to be. I did enjoy it, and I was happy. For years I have dreamed of this, and even if it wasn't for life, or even for a little while, it was still nice. At least I got the opportunity to feel loved, and that's what counts.

I felt him slowly pull away from my body, his paws sliding across my arms and resting in my hands. He gently pulled me onto him and licked the top of my nose slowly, while rubbing the back of my thighs. In return I started squeezing his ears which coaxed another low murr out of him, and he gave my thighs a solid squeeze.

He suddenly moved and place his paws under my arm and lifted me out of the water with a solid fluid, and extremely graceful motion. The next thing I knew I was laying on the edge of the pool on my back with him on top of me, both paws placed on my chest. Our eyes were locked together, looking into each other's souls, seeing past ourselves and mistakes.

He rested his head on my stomach, with paws on top of my shoulders. We laid like that for a long while before either of us moved. It was he who made the first move and pulled me up by the paws with him. We stood up together and he gave me the strongest embrace I had felt since I had been a pup with my parents, but the meaning behind it was more than just a simple hug.

"Remember, when life gets you down someone will show up to pick you back up. One day, you will be free." he whispered into my ear and tightening his hug.

All I could do was nod my head and he slipped out of the embrace. I was tearing up and could not bare to look up at him. I felt his gently squeeze of my ear and his presence slip away. I wanted to do something to keep him, say something and tell him to stop. Nothing came out except silence, and a small whimper.

I opened my eyes to look at the pool deck and noticed a piece of jewelry laying on the tile. It was a beautiful pendant of a half moon, made from Malachite that was attached to a shined silver necklace. I held in my paw admiring its beauty and purity of the gem and metal. I grabbed both ends with my paws and wrapped it around my neck and clipped it closed. It was a perfect fit, with the gem hanging perfected balanced in the middle of my chest.
