from writing about them.

Important
Notice: This whole story should be looked at more from an aesthetic point of
view and not for what it implies. I encourage, and adore it, if you review as
either comments on the story and its thematic elements or criticisms where it
falls short. However, I will not accept
flames. I say this under the assumption that you know the difference
between flames and criticisms so I don’t have to explain it.

Warning: This story contains the themes of sex, shota/chanslash,
and male/male relationships, a.k.a. slash/yaoi. If any of these may offend you,
then stop reading. If, however, you do read this, in spite of my warnings, and
find it offensive, then I have to say it is your own fault. This scene is of an
erotic nature, but I have attempted to write it as tastefully as my ability
allows.

Note: I will not accept any flames, however, comments and
criticisms are welcome. I am under the assumption that anyone reading this has
a clear understanding of the difference between flames and criticisms so I
don’t have to explain it. Here are some reason why I don’t accept flames: 1) they generally include an attack on
the author’s character without regard to previous or future works that may or
may not be in the same vein, 2) not
only are they childish, but they make the writer of them sound immature and not
old enough to read the material contained herein, 3) flames help neither the author nor the flamer to improve the
work and, therefore, are not constructive, 4)
if something is so offensive as to elicit the impulse to flame then it is
better forgotten and not dwelled upon, 5)
you waste time writing it and I waste time reading and then deleting it, 6) it won’t do you any good to point
out my lack of scruples, morals, intelligence, sanity, etc., because not only
don’t I care, but I won’t listen.

Thank you for your kind regards and any reviews (not flames)
that you will allocate to me.

From Your Sight,

Prince in a Rose Bowe>
>

There are thirty-six steps winding upwards between walls of
pink marble covered in heart’s blood red roses. Every sixth step there is a
window, arched on top, flat on the bottom. Sometimes the view is of undulating
fields of long, verdant grass beneath a honey-gold sun; other times a wind-torn
ocean slamming itself against outcroppings of glistering black stone. Today the
sight is of star speckled sky of indigo twilight stretching above the swells of
silvery dunes. This is new. The change is disquieting, disconcerting.

And the roses, ah me!

Brittle brown branches cling to the walls like love-starved
children. Dead leaves crackle beneath my feet. The air is filled with the
sickly-sweet perfume of long decayed rose petals.

My pace quickens as does the sluggish blood pumping through
my fragile veins. The state of the roses does not bode well. The Prince has not
allowed them the requisite feast. They starve with want for his purity, his
innocence.

The Prince, once again our savior, is in another one of his
moods. The child.

Well, he is a child, so I suppose I can forgive him these tantrums.
However, everything depends upon him and the roses, a string of small deaths
waiting to happen. Everything will always depend upon this child, this creature
born to be martyred for the frivolity of others—mine most especially.

At the top of those serpentine stairs is a door of pale,
white wood. Complicated whorls of rose vines and bursts of the flowers
themselves are engraved upon the door. A knob of warm gold beckons me to enter.
It begs to be touched, to be used and thus fulfill its purpose. Even the
doorknob has takenn itn itself to match the décor of the rest of this place; it
is in the shape of a partially bloomed rose.

The door opens silently. A flurry of dead leaves and petals
swirl about me as I enter the Prince’s room. Waxing death fills the space
contained by circular walls. The Prince has been very naughty of late.

Whites palepale peaches flow throughout the airy room.
Everything seems organic. Everything seems pale with the whisper of death and
the loss of time. I can feel the passage of time, ripples of other people’s
memories, swelling within these cool walls. The bed is a vague idea of sheets,
blankets and swollen pillows. There are bookcases of ghost-pale woolledlled
with toppled books. A glass table supports a large silver bowl of wax fruits.
Delicate wicker chairs drown under mounds of discarded clothing and more
sheets.

The Rose Prince leans against the railings of the small
balcony overlooking the new scenery. The roses reach for him longingly, but he
ignores their reaching tendrils. Messy black hair obscures his pale face. He is
an idol of marble and obsidian with emeralds for eyes.

“You have not bled for them in quite some time.”

The roses seem to hiss in confirmation. Several brittle,
brown tendrils snake out to hover before the boy’s impassive face.

“Fuck off.”

Always fiery, this one. His spirit is too much for this
wretched world, and for this reason he shall always be tacriacrificial lamb.
However, as much I enjoy his temper, I cannot allow him to shirk his responsibilities.

He is the only one bound to the roses, Charon’s Roses, and
they to: hi: his death for theirs, their death for his. All the world depends
upon this child and his strength of heart, pure, twisted heart. Dear heart.
More than the wet organ beating rhythmically in his thin chest.

“Prince.”

He turns and glares balefully at me. Old enmity rises in his
green-green eyes and then sinks back down.

“I don’t want to do this anymore. I just…”

“Feed them. You have to.”

“This is so…”

“I know.”

He raises glistening eyes to the tangle of rose vines
shifting oh-so-subtly above his head. A few hungry strands twist lower to stop
inches from his upturned face. Languidly he lifts his arm to the eagerly
waiting roses. A whispered cheer runs through the thorny branches. Some
branches are as thick around as my arm with thorns as long as my middle finger.
Some only the width of a hair with thorns that are nothing more than a slight
prickling texture.

The Prince gasps softly as vines tenderly encircle his offered
wrist and pierce his tender flesh. A line of red wells up, and I lick my lips.
One by one, more vines slide down to wrap greedily about his slender arm. He
closes his eyes and moans, even as rivulets of deepest crimson trail down to
drip onto the floor. The roses entwining the balcony railings creep towards his
bare feet and the unguarded arm by his side. They pause, shivering in almost
human anticipation, and then strike.

He cries out and hisng bng body tenses with pain. A
fluttering shudder rolls down his back, bowing his spine. So beautiful, the
Princeviorvior.

“It…hurts.”

It would. They are starving.

“T-Tom.”

Large, frightened eyes to to me as Charon’s Roses lovingly
embrace him in sinuous arms and kiss him with sharp teeth. My breath hitches
and a line of tension runs through me. Blood runs freely down his bare chest
twined with thorny branches. He is a tapestry of crimsons and whites cut
through by brittle brown.

Blood and roses.

I want to lick him, feel the sensual bite of the roses’
caress as I taste him.

With ruthleove,ove, the roses jerk the child off of his
feet. He cries out, head lolling back, eyes dazed by pain and blood loss. The
roses draw him up into their undulating tangle. He screams once, twice and
vanishes amid the vines and thorns.

I move to stand below the place where the child was
consumed. Heavy, warm droplets spatter my upturned face. His blood is a
delicious rain, a benediction in carmine tears.

Poor Prince. Sweet lamb.

Once again our fates lie intertwined like mating vipers. I
am the origin of all his earthly troubles and burdens. I am the begetter, the
progenitor.

I thought—we all thought—magic was a never-ending resource.
So we used and used, took and took, until there was no more to be used or
taken. Sweet Mother Earth had no more bounty to bestow.

We foolishly never thought to give back.
