CHAPTER 6
'Mycroft... what have you done to us?' I asked, although I knew what it was.
He walked towards me and took me in his arms. I didn't resist: in fact, I couldn't resist to his embrace. Our eyes locked, and I could feel his mind trick working on me. Somehow I knew that I was far too weak to confront him, so I let him lead me out of the bedroom.
'You're as special as I thought you would be' he whispered at my ear as his hands explored my naked body. He caressed my chest, gently tweaking the pink nipples, and then went lower to my belly. Meanwhile he was kissing and licking my neck. 'Your hair looks so exotic... it seems to be made of fine threads of copper'
I had lots of questions, but Mycroft's tender ministrations pushed all of them aside. I pressed my body against his, and felt his manhood pressing against my lower back.
'Now you'll know how wonderful the act of supreme love is for me' he said in a whisper, as his hands moved lower and lower. 'You'll realize how imprecise and limited the human senses are'
Then, he touched my most intimate part. I got hard instantly.
'You will love this' he said as he gently stroked it. In only three seconds I felt like I was about to cum.
'I'm getting close' I whispered, closing my eyes and getting ready to feel my seed coming out of me.
'No, you aren't' Mycroft told me, without stopping. 'We've only just begun. That's how it feels for us'
It felt so good that it was almost unbearable. His hand began stroking me faster and I moaned in ecstasy as I reached levels of pleasure I had never reached before.
'It feels good, doesn't it?' he whispered at my ear. His other hand rubbed my chest as he stroked my manhood. Soon after, he bit my neck lightly, and that sent me over the edge. I let out a loud groan of sheer pleasure as I had the strongest orgasm I had ever experienced, and then all went black.

When I became conscious again, I found Matt fondling me. I have to say that I had never seen him so happy. As soon as he noticed that I was awake again, he jumped on top of me and kissed me deeply.
'Tommy...' he whispered. 'You used to be hot as hell, but now you look even better'
'So do you' I told him.
My brother had changed, but he was still my Matty, my tender and loving Matty. We kissed again, and kept kissing each other for over an hour.
'I love you' he told me. 'I want us to be together forever, Tommy'
'I love you more' I replied. 'And we will be together forever, that's for sure. I could stay here with you till the end of time'
Our bodies were cold and hard, but our smooth skin was very sensitive. The lack of warmth disappointed me just a little, but as soon as I thought about it, my body became as warm as any human body. Matt seemed to read my mind, because he warmed up a second after.
We cuddled, while gently stroking each other's backs. Every once in a while, we'd kiss. For a while we enjoyed just being that way, so close to each other. I could not sense Mycroft's presence in the house, but I have to say that at that time I didn't really care about where he was. I wanted to share that moment only with my beloved Matty.
At last, I made love to him. We both had incredibly strong but dry climaxes. Immediately after he came, he fell asleep on top of me, with my manhood still inside him. I hugged him tightly as he slept, and tenderly kissed him. Even while sleeping, he returned the kiss.
'Sleep well, sweetie' I whispered at his ear.

'Now, the first lesson is history' Mycroft told us.
We were in the living room again, all of us fully dressed. Mycroft liked being in the nude, but he thought that it was impossible to teach anything while being naked. He was right: his naked body was too distracting for two horny boys like Matt and I.
'The role of sorcerers in human history, and especially in the history of Earth humans, is important albeit largely unknown' Mycroft began. 'Our role was most important in ancient times, but that doesn't mean that we don't have a powerful influence in today's world.
”Humans are not unique to Earth. We don't know why, but there are humans in two known worlds, the Earth and the Central World. Humans of the Central World are more technologically advanced than Earthly humans, and it has always been so. In fact, circa 9,000 BC, Earth humans were about ten millennia behind Central World humans. In the Earth there weren't cities yet, while in the Central World the city of Dekka, which would become the Imperial City, already had over a million inhabitants.
”We, the Sorcerers, were responsible of the most basic discoveries, either directly or indirectly. Mathematics were almost as well-developed as they are nowadays, and the knowledge of physics grew constantly. Medicine, chemistry, biology, philosophy... all of those were well known, thanks to our studies and theories. The humans studied from our books and then made discoveries and theories of their own.
”Meanwhile, in the Earth there was no civilization. The biggest human settlement had about a hundred inhabitants, who were completely unaware of the secrets of the universe. The art of writing was totally unknown for them; obviously nothing as complex as physics or mathematics crossed their minds.
”About a millenium before, the Sorcerers had discovered how to travel through the Universe, applying the same principles used for local teletransportation, those principles that even now, after thirty thousand years of continuous study remain unknown. So, in their precarious spaceships, only suitable for the strongest, they began exploring outer space. As we sorcerers don't really need oxygen nor food and can provide the power for the spaceship, the trips were possible for our kind. They explored different systems for a thousand years until a tiny ship happened to be wandering near the Earth.
”There was only one sorcerer aboard that ship. His name was Issa, and he was young and powerful. He was the one who discovered the Earth.
”Soon after, all sorcerers traveled to the Earth, in order to study the newly discovered world. Of course, the humans saw those sorcerers, and worshipped them: that's how the idea of God was created.
”Those sorcerers brought many advances to the Earth's humankind in those years, but they also encouraged human devotion to them. The rituals became more and more complicated and organized, and the concept of religion appeared'
Mycroft made a pause and sighed, lost in his thoughts for a while. Then, he continued.
'So, the Earth became our race's playground. It can be said that those sorcerers played with humans, like human children play with dolls and lead soldiers.
”Things stayed that way until one day, a relatively young sorcerer by the name of Yahweh said that sorcerers weren't supposed to interfere with humans. He started a long debate on whether our race should leave the Earth humans alone or not. The debate –which was held between Yahweh and Marduk, who was the most conservative of all sorcerers–, became so violent that the Great Council of the Sorcerers –the Parliament of the Sorcerers' See– decided to put an end to the dispute.
”Saiph, King of all the Sorcerers and First Counselor of the Sorcerers' See, called for a general assembly of all the Race, which took place on the city of Dekka, now known as Imperial City, in the year 4005 BC. The assembly couldn't make the final decision, so King Saiph and the six remaining members of the Great Council went out of the room where the assembly was being held and made the decision themselves. When they came back, they had in their hands the fate of humankind for the following six millennia.
”Both the conservative sorcerers and Yahweh's followers were allowed to stay on Earth. Any sorcerer could do anything he or she pleased, as long as it wasn't an act of warfare against other sorcerers. So, Yahweh went to Earth and created a religion of his own, centered on himself. His plan was to convert all humans to the new religion, and then reveal the secret to them, thus putting an end to millennia of human commitment to sorcerers.
”He made new sorcerers in order to have fledglings who would help him with the task. Everything went well until he made his eighth fledgling. This fledgling was made out of an eighteen-year-old young man who had been born in a small settlement in northern Europe. Nobody knows what his name was as a human, but almost everybody, including humans, know the name his Master gave him: Lucifer, Son of Morning.
”Lucifer turned out to be far more powerful than his Master: in fact, he was by far the most powerful of all Sorcerers, and he retained that status until about five years ago, but that's other story. The thing is, Lucifer wanted his Master's power for himself, and he fought him. Of course he won, although he didn't kill Yahweh.
”At first, Yahweh didn't tell the other sorcerers what was going on. Secretly, he chose a young woman who he knew was devoted to the religion he had created, and used his powers to make her pregnant, even though she was a virgin. Her name was, of course, Mary, and her child was Jesus.
”This boy was created with the sole purpose of being transformed and trained by Yahweh in order to become a sorcerer powerful enough to defeat the nearly almighty Lucifer.
”When Lucifer knew what his former Master was doing, he tried to kill that baby. Because of Jesus' young age, he couldn't find him with his mind powers: that's why he persuaded King Herod to proceed with that massacre of young children the Bible talks about. However, as the Bible says, Jesus was taken to Egypt.
”Yahweh deeply influenced Jesus' mind and taught him the basics about our kind's nature and behavior. He had never been so close to any of his fledglings: in fact, it can be said that Jesus became a mere extension of him.
”When he was seventeen years old, Yahweh made him one of us. He turned out to be a very powerful sorcerer, as his Master had planned. He acted as a priest for his Master's religion, and became so involved with it that nowadays he's considered the Messiah by Christians. Certainly he was the son of Yahweh, but he was far more powerful than his Master, just like Lucifer.
Mycroft made a pause.
'Well, the Bible tells you the rest' he continued. 'Of course, the ending, and some minor details were different. In 33 AD, Jesus and Yahweh confronted Lucifer in Rome, the city where he was living then, but they couldn't defeat him. Yes, Jesus was powerful, but not as much as Lucifer, and Lucifer had twenty fledglings by then. So, they were defeated, but at the last moment Lucifer had mercy and let them go on one condition: they had to accept him as the legitimate supreme ruler of the Earth. And they did, although very reluctantly.
”Then, they went back to Jerusalem, where Jesus told his closest followers to keep Yahweh's ideas alive, and then he 'died'... say, he let himself be captured and crucified by the Romans as a punishment for not having defeated Lucifer. When he was buried he was still alive, as it's very difficult to effectively put an end to the life of one of us, so he stayed there, recovering from the wounds, and then left the tomb.
He stayed on Earth for a while, always disguised, but after some time he followed his Master and went to the Central World. However, before doing that, he transformed his mortal lover –of course he had a lover– in order to take her with him. She was none other than Mary Magdalene.
”Then, Lucifer ruled over most of the world from his Roman stronghold for a little less than three hundred years, until Jesus came back to Earth and found a fledgling, an important Roman general, who would later become Emperor Constantine I. But that's another story.
”Let's skip some years, and talk about the recent past. I suppose you know who Flavius was...
'Of course' I answered. 'Emperor Gaius Flavius Augustus, the Hitler of the twenty-first century'
'Flavius was none other than Lucifer himself, attempting to regain control of the world for the umpteenth time' Mycroft told us. 'Never before Lucifer had dared to appear to the masses as himself, preferring to be the force behind the throne of the most powerful tyrants. Nero, Commodo, Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Kaiser Wilhelm II, Stalin, Hitler himself... they were little more than puppets controlled by the Son of Morning's power. However, some of them –Hitler particularly, to some extent Nero and Commodo, among others– were so mad that their minds could not be controlled easily by him. That explains why the Nazis lost the Second World War: he abandoned them and hid behind Stalin.
”But six years ago, he came as himself and did something that he had done before, but never as directly: he took over the Church. You probably remember that Flavius was originally Flavius Cardinal Avior, and then he succeeded the fascist John XXIV... proclaiming himself Emperor in his first public speech. He constructed an empire protected by so many fledglings and armies that it was nearly invincible: as you know, he would have conquered the world if he hadn't suddenly died.
”He was killed when the millenarian cathedral of Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey –then Constantinople, Flavian Empire–, exploded with him inside. It was widely considered a terrorist attack, but it was not. Lucifer and my dear fledgling and one time lover Alexander dueled inside the cathedral. Lucifer would have won if his only fledgling, Raymond, hadn't allied with us at the last moment and killed him from behind as the Son of Morning tried to destroy Alexander.
”The energy release from Lucifer's body was so intense that the church exploded, even after Alexander absorbed most of it by acting as a living shield. If he hadn't been there, Istanbul would have been obliterated by the explosion. And then, Raymond took over the government of the Flavian Empire –you probably know him as Justinianus Caesar– and dissolved it.
”Now you have an idea of the importance of our kind through history. I'll tell you more in other opportunity, and of course I'll bring books for you to read. But the authors of those books weren't there when the things they write about happened. I was. I've seen Lucifer face to face. I've seen him rise and fall for the last time, and I can tell you all about it. However, once more, that's another story. Alexander is the one who wrote about it. He's the writer.
He seemed lost into his thoughts for a while. His mind was totally obscure for me, but I could catch a clear image coming out of it. It was a young man, not older than I was, tall and dark-haired, with bright green eyes. He was very good-looking, I thought.
'He's Alexander' Mycroft said suddenly.
'Who?' I asked.
'That young man' he answered. 'The one you saw. He's Alexander. My Alex'
He made a gesture with his hand, and the image of a man appeared. He was slightly translucent, but we could see all the details. It was a perfect image of Alexander.
'Good choice' Matt commented. 'He's seriously hot'
'He looks even better without his clothes on' Mycroft replied, with a dirty smile. 'Do you want to watch him getting dirty?'
Matt and I looked at each other with identical smirks, and then at him. We nodded at the same time.
'Well, you just have to ask him' he told us, his dirty smile getting wider.
'It would be my pleasure' a voice said behind us. 'However, it would be better if it's with you two'
The real Alexander stood there, looking at us with an evil, inviting grin. He was as attractive as Mycroft. He was slightly shorter, but his body was as defined as my master's. He used gel on his short black hair, just like Mycroft, and his gray eyes shone in the semi-darkness of the room. He was shirtless and barefoot, and I could tell that he had no underwear on. His pants were baggy, but showed the nice bulge between his legs. His nipples were pierced, and so was his left eyebrow.
Mycroft walked towards him, and they kissed furiously. Alexander ripped Mycroft's T-shirt open and began sucking on one of his nipples, making him moan softly. Suddenly, he abandoned it and looked at us.
'What are you waiting for?' he said, grinning in a very inviting manner. 'Come and join us'
We didn't need much persuasion.
