I don’t pretend to have a firm grasp on who has more power within the frameworks of the Cabal, and, to be honest, it’s of no real concern to me. I know that my job is to be of service. Depending on who my client is that week, maybe it’s better that I’m left in the dark about the details.

Having serviced Apolo Adrii in a previous encounter, Bastian typically knows what to expect when he enters the office. This time, however, he is met with surprise when he sees another man in a suit, Charlie Cherry, taking part in the business meeting. Bastian is hesitant at first, but with firm instruction from his client, the slave boy has no other choice.

Viktor Rom is excited to have Bastian back in his clutches, he would ensure that the service boy fulfilled his duties with other clients, but he ultimately couldn’t wait to play with him again. Back in the warehouse, the two begin to passionately kiss. However, when Bastian goes to remove Viktor’s belt buckle the dominant top stops him, reminding the bottom who is in control.
