Dover

Morning came to Callum, as he lay there in his soft bed. The room was still, and the wind had ceased overnight. Predawn light was filtering in through the window behind the bed. Callum turned his head and looked over at his lover. The peaceful sleeping form of Dustin was half laying on Callum. Callum smiled at the beauty of this youth with him. It filled his heart with so much joy and love just to be next to him, naked, in their warm bed.

Callum moved slowly as he got out of bed. He slid carefully out from under Dustin so as not to wake him. His feet touched the floor, and he stood. He reached to the foot of the bed and grabbed his shirt, pulling it over his head, then went to reach for his long pants.

"What do you think you are doing?"

Callum half turned back to the bed, hearing the soft voice of Dustin. Callum, held his pants in one hand.

"I was going to prepare for the day ahead." Callum replied softly, watching Dustin roll to his back. The bed coverings moved with him, exposing Dustin more. Callum could see that Dustin was erect.

"You should come back to bed. The day is not upon us quite yet." Dustin said, as he tilted his head back on the pillow, looking up at the window and the darkness in it.

"Are you in need of me?"

Dustin smiled. "I am always in need of you." Dustin said as he rose up on the bed. He crossed the bed toward Callum on his knees. Callum watched as the slender body came closer to him. "I need you every hour, of every day."

"I would have thought that you were sated last night."

"That was last night." Dustin whispered as he reached out and took Callum's soft length in his hand, pulling on it gently. "I dreamt of you all night." Dustin whispered, as he came nearer, getting closer to the base of Callum's neck. "I dreamt we were together..." Dustin kissed the base of Callum's neck, "on the Dover...making love...", Dustin moved up the side of Callum's neck, kissing him softly, "on the Quarter Deck...", another kiss at the base of Callum's ear, "my hands on the wheel..." Dustin lipped the tip of Callum's ear, "you behind me...taking me." Dustin said as he tongued Callum's ear.

Callum was fully erect now, wanting, lusting. He turned his head and kissed Dustin's soft lips. Their kiss was tender and firm. Callum parted his lips and moved his tongue forward, parting Dustin's. Dustin moaned softly as he let Callum in, Callum probing and moving his tongue around Dustin's wanting mouth. Callum dropped his pants to the floor, as he wrapped his arms around the soft skinned body that was his love, his passion, his desire. Dustin was still pulling on Callum's length, sliding the foreskin back and forth. Callum was moaning softly in Dustin's mouth. They slowly pulled back from each other.

"You bring the beast out in me every time."

Dustin smiled wide, giving Callum soft eyes, in the near darkness. "I love the beast in you."

Callum slowly pushed against Dustin, taking him by the waist in one arm, forcing him back to the bed. Callum kissed Dustin again, going deeper with his tongue into Dustin's open, wanting mouth. Callum placed Dustin on the bed, and moved his arm out from under him. Dustin let go of Callum's rigid length, knowing that he was about to be taken again, loving the feeling of the anticipation, the want, the desire welling up in him. He watched as Callum kissed his way lower on his slender body, lips kissing him, and then pursing, pulling at his skin gently, then teeth, gently biting him as Callum moved lower. Callum reached Dustin's length, taking it in one hand, standing it up.

"You are leaking out." Callum said softly.

"You make it do that." Dustin whispered.

Callum licked it up off the tip, taking it into his mouth, humming softly as he did. "I love it's taste." Callum licked at the tip again, making Dustin moan softly. Callum watched as Dustin arched his back on the bed with every lick he made.

"Quintan...take me." Dustin whispered, as his hands went to Callum's hair.

Callum smiled to himself and then opened his mouth. He put his lips around the tip and then slowly brought more of Dustin into his mouth, moving his lips tightly down the length, making Dustin breathe deeply as he moved, almost at a gasp. Callum kept going, slowly, and then buried his nose into Dustin's sparse hairs, bottoming ut at Dustin's base. Callum clamped his mouth tightly around Dustin, and then began a tight pull upward, letting his mouth slide slowly. Dustin moved his hands from Callum's hair to the bed, grabbing the mattress, sinking his fingers into the fabric, arching his back again.

"Oh...my God..." Dustin moaned softly. "yes...yes...Quintan...ohhh."

Callum reached the tip with his lips and the tight suction, and then started back down, maintaining his firm attentions on Dustin. He reached the bottom and started back up again. Dustin was beginning to pant with what Callum was doing to him, Dustin was clutching more and more fabric, spreading his legs wider for Callum. Callum shifted his body a little, making himself a little more comfortable, bring up a hand now, cupping Dustin's balls, wrapping his fingers around them, pulling them down a little, making Dustin's sack tight, fingers kneading the two orbs, moving them about, as Callum went upward again to the tip, then back down again.

"Quintan...Quintan..." Dustin panted, "you're bringing it..."

Callum only hummed his reply, moving up and down a little faster, but just as tight as he had been. He loved the feel of Dustin, his slender length in his mouth, his soft, tender skin, the scent of him in his nostrils, driving him on to please his young lover.

"Ohhh," Dustin moaned softly as he erupted in Callum's mouth, sending powerful shots to the back of Callum's throat, Callum maintained his motions on Dustin, drawing more and more from him, swallowing as he went, not losing any of the precious fluid that was given to Callum. Dustin slowed his heavy breathing as the throws of passion eased from his intense orgasm. Callum slowed as well, knowing that Dustin was almost done with his pulsing. Callum slowly let his hand ease off Dustin's balls, and then once he reached Dustin's tip, he removed his mouth. Callum shifted and climbed up to lay next to his love, looking down at his glowing face.

"Is that better?" Callum asked softly.

"I have never had it so strong before like that. It was truly amazing." Dustin exhaled, easing his body back into the mattress. Love filled his eyes, as he reached up with a hand and cradled Callum's cheek. "I truly love you."

"I know you do." Callum whispered back, leaning his face to the soft neck of Dustin just below his ear. "And I love doing it to you." Callum said as he kissed the tender skin. "I love your taste, your power when you erupt."

"You bring it so easily." Dustin replied as he wrapped an arm around Callum's neck. Dustin shifted his body, getting a leg under and around Callum, putting Callum on top of him. He squirmed his slender body under Callum, making Callum's length falling in between the cheeks of his slender butt. Dustin wiggled to make it come to his opening. Callum pushed in against it. "Give it to me." Dustin whispered, his eyes soft and warm.

"Do you ever get enough?"

Dustin wrapped both arms around Callum's neck. "Never."

Callum rocked his hips ever so slightly, pushing more against Dustin. Dustin rolled his hips up a little, letting Callum have more of him, wiggling a little more, making Callum enter him. Dustin gasped a little as the head of Callum broke through. Dustin rocked a little back and forth, drawing more of Callum in. He closed his eyes, as they rolled back in his head, moaning softly, tightening his arms around Callum's neck.

"Oh, Quintan." Dustin whispered, licking his lips, "I love it so."

"As do I." Callum said as he slid in more and more, moving his hips more into Dustin, bearing down on the mattress. Callum moved his hands to Dustin's cheeks below him, grasping them firmly, pulling them, spreading them wider, letting his entire length into Dustin. Once he was fully in, his balls rubbing against the fabric of the mattress, Callum began to rock a little, back and forth, not sliding in or out, moving his hard length about in Dustin's cavity. Dustin could feel it inside of him, touching all of his walls, making him take deep breaths as sensations were happening to him that he could not fully comprehend. How was so much pleasure possible, he thought, as his eyes were rolling.

"Ohh, God..." Dustin whispered in Callum's ear, wrapping his arms tighter around Callum's neck, "you're so big...you fill me so...so...much." Dustin moaned feeling Callum rock in him again. "I wish we could stay like this forever."

"You like it?" Callum whispered as he sucked on Dustin's earlobe.

"Yes, yes...I want it like this all the time...ohhh, God..." Dustin moaned again.

"Then I shall give it to you like this whenever you want it."

"Then, you will never leave this bed." Dustin moaned, sliding his hands down Callum's back, over the shirt he still wore. Dustin grabbed the fabric and pulled, sliding it back up Callum's back. "Let's get this off you, my love, I want to feel your nakedness against mine."

Callum let go of Dustin's cheeks and moved his hands to brace himself, as Dustin pulled at the shirt. It was gathered up at Callum's shoulders, as Callum lifted one hand and worked out of one sleeve, then shifted his balance, removing the other arm, never once moving out of Dustin. Dustin took the gathered shirt and pulled it over Callum's head and tossed it away off the bed. As Callum slowly lowered himself back onto Dustin.

"Better?" Callum asked, going nose to nose with Dustin.

"Yes. I always want the touch of your naked body next to mine."

"You are a wanting soul, aren't you?"

"My only want, is you, all of you." Dustin said softly, as he returned his arms around Callum's neck, pulling him in, kissing him deeply, feeling Callum rock inside of him, Dustin moaned in Callum's mouth. Callum pulled back

"You have me...all of me..." Callum kissed Dustin softly. "My heart...my soul...my body."

"Then give me your body. Fill me up inside with your seed. I want you to bathe me inside with it."

Callum smiled softly and began to move his hips in another direction, in and out now, sliding himself in and out of Dustin's hole, making Dustin breathe heavier. Callum went deeper, and then pulled out almost all of the way, then back in. His pace was increasing, making Dustin pant under him and his new pace. Dustin pushed his head deeper into the pillow now and his insides were being pushed in this new direction, loving this feeling as much as the last.

"Ohhh, yes, Quintan...give me your hard mast...make me soar through the clouds...ohhh...ohhh...yes." Dustin licked his lips as he held tight around Callum's neck. "You're bringing it on again..."

"Let it fly..." Callum whispered. "I want to feel it in between us...coating us...making it slick between us..."

"Ohhh,...ohhh..." Dustin moaned as he lost himself, shooting his fluid up in between them, covering both their stomachs. Callum felt the pulses from Dustin and he lost himself to it, bringing his own orgasm as a result, sending pulse after pulse deep inside of Dustin, thrusting his hard length deeper and deeper with every push. Dustin moaned louder at it. The bed was making creaking noises from Callum's movements. Their breathing became as one, slowing as their orgasms eased. Dustin lifted and wrapped his legs about Callum's waist, locking them at the ankles, he pulled them a little tighter to Callum.

"Uhhh." Callum grunted under this new position. Dustin wiggled his butt a little, rocking himself with Callum still inside him. "That feels good."

"It feels good to me as well." Dustin tightened a little more. Callum grunted again. "You are still so hard in me."

"You keep me that way. Your insides are so warm."

"They still long for you."

"As I do for you. But, I must get up. I have to be ready for the workmen, and then the carriage." Callum said, as he began to push up off the bed. Dustin still held on to him, arms and legs. Callum smiled. "You are like the barnacle to the hull." Dustin grinned up at Callum. "Must I scrape you off?"

"If you feel you have to. It may be more difficult than you think."

"A challenge." Callum grinned back at Dustin. "There is only one way to pry you loose, I think..." Callum sat back on his haunches, bringing Dustin with him. Callum dug his fingers into Dustin's sides and started to tickle his tender soft skin. Dustin wiggled and wiggled, giggling as Callum was going harder and harder on him. Dustin threw his head back, laughing, trying his best to hold on, but Callum was too strong and persistent in his tickling. Dustin unwrapped his arms and legs and fell back to the mattress, looking up at Callum. The look of love and lust shone in Dustin's eyes. "There, you see? I pried you loose." Callum looked down at the slender body under him. "But you seem to be covered in your liquid. We must clean up." Callum bent down and began to lick Dustin all over his stomach and hips, gathering all of the white fluid that was on him. Dustin ran his fingers through Callum's hair as he gently cleaned him.

"It is on you as well." Dustin said softly, as Callum sat back. Callum looked down at himself, and then back at Dustin. Dustin pulled his legs up and spun on the mattress, getting in front of Callum on his knees. He started to lick up his white liquid off Callum. Callum closed his eyes as the tongue was sliding over him.

"Do you like the taste of yourself?" Callum asked softly.

Dustin lifted himself up, going face to face with Callum. "Yes, I do. As much as you seem to."

"You never cease to amaze me."

" How do you mean?"

"You are never truly sated, are you?" Callum asked as he put his arms around Dustin's waist, drawing him closer.

"You have awakened something in me, something I have never had before. It's like a hunger, and I can never get full, no matter how much I eat."

Callum smiled, then kissed Dustin softly. "I hope you will always be this way."

"I know I will, as long as I am with you." Dustin smiled that little boy smile. Callum kissed him again. "Are you sure you must dress? I was hoping..."

Callum shook his head, then pulled back his arms, and pushed Dustin back to the bed. "I must." Callum backed off the bed. He retrieved his shirt that Dustin had tossed earlier and slipped it on over his head.

"Your body is so beautiful." Dustin said softly.

"As is yours." Callum smiled. Dustin folded his arms behind his head, resting on the pillow, spreading his legs apart, trying to lure Callum back to him. Callum grinned at the youth, the beauty that he knew belonged to him. He lusted again, but knew better, and reached for his long pants. He slid them one, one leg at a time, and then tucked himself into them, then buttoned the flap closed. He picked up his stockings and his shoes and turned for the door. He crossed the room and opened the door, looking back at the bed. "I will be downstairs." He walked out, closing the door behind him.

He came into the kitchen and set his stockings down on the chair, setting his shoes on the floor. He saw Martha at the stove. Callum smiled at seeing her. He could smell coffee brewing, and knew that she had obviously been up for a while. She looked up at him and smiled.

"Morning." Callum said. "I was coming down here to do the very same. It appears that you beat me to it."

"Good morning, Quintan." She said, nodding her head, slightly. "I awoke early, knowing that you would want an early start today."

"Sleep well?"

"On and off. Several noises through the night."

"Oh...?" Callum said, becoming slightly embarrassed.

"The wind, dear boy, nothing more." She smiled.

"I see." Callum eased a little. He smiled back her briefly.

"And where is Master Perkins?"

"I believe he is dressing." Callum said, as he picked up his stockings, and sat in the chair. He began to pull them on, lifting his pant leg, sliding the stockings up. She watched him as he did it.

"Oh, I see."

"You have quite the draw to him, don't you?"

She crossed over to where Callum sat, as he slipped on his shoes. She reached out and cupped her hands to his cheeks. "Not quite the same draw as you, my dear." She smiled, making Callum blush. "I would have thought you might still be in bed."

"Why would that be?"

"Oh, as the wind probably kept you up last night."

"Oh. No, I slept fairly well."

"I'm sure you did." Martha winked at him and then let his cheeks go. She turned and reached for a cup off the shelf. She turned back to the stove, pulling up her apron with her other hand and grasped the handle of the pot, pouring from it, into the cup. She set the pot back down and walked the cup over and set it before Callum on the table.

"Thank you." Callum said, looking at the cup. It smelled wonderful to him. He finished his shoes and then picked up the cup, sipping from it. It tasted better than it smelled. "So, when do you think the workmen shall arrive?"

"I would imagine it will be shortly. Then their wives will arrive before midday."

"Their wives?" Callum asked, setting his cup down.

Martha turned and looked at him. "Certainly. They will bring them some luncheon, especially this close to home, the men not having to travel out of town for work."

"I didn't realize..."

"You thought it was only going to be them?" Martha chuckled. "Oh, my dear, you have so much to learn, don't you?" Martha just shook her head. "It's not life aboard ship, you know. There are women here, that are involved with what their men do."

"I suppose there is a lot to learn, living here." Callum said, as he picked up the cup and sipped more from it.

"You shall see." She looked up, seeing Dustin walk into the kitchen. She smiled at him, Dustin returned the smile. "Good morning, Master Perkins. I was wondering if you were going to join us."

"Morning." Dustin looked back and forth between them. "Did I miss something?"

"Nothing at all." Callum said, standing up. He put a hand on Dustin's shoulder, and smiled at him. "We were just discussing the differences between life here and at sea, that's all."

"Oh." Dustin said, watching Martha pull another cup from the shelf and fill it. She carried it to the table and set it down. Callum stepped back and let Dustin move by him, sitting down at the table. Dustin picked up his cup and sipped from it, as he looked up at Callum. "Are you going somewhere?"

"I was going to take a walk around the fence line. I need to stretch my leg before we get into the carriage for that long ride."

"I was about to prepare breakfast for you." Martha said.

Callum stepped toward her gave her a kiss on the forehead. "I shall not be long." He turned and walked out the back door. She watched him leave, and then turned back to the stove. Dustin sipped more of his coffee.

"Are you hungry this morning, Master Perkins?" Dustin turned in his chair and looked at her, she returned his look. "What am I saying? Of course you are, up all night like that."

"I beg your pardon?" Dustin gulped hard, blushing.

She turned and smiled at him. "The wind, dear boy...it's a wonder anyone slept at all, rattling the house as such."

"Oh...yes, of course." Dustin eased himself a bit in the chair. Martha walked over set the board full of bread on the table in front of him.

"You did sleep, didn't you?"

"A bit, yes."

"All that creaking and moaning of the house. It's a wonder." She said in a soft voice. Dustin's eyes went wide as he knew that she knew what really happened last night. He hunkered down in the chair, focusing on the almost empty cup.

Dustin squirmed in his chair. Martha took his cup, refilled it and then returned it. Dustin took it slowly and sipped in silence. He didn't know what to do or to say. He was too nervous to look over his shoulder at her. He decided to keep his head down.

"How many eggs would you care to have, young sir?"

"Uhh...perhaps two?"

"Of course." Martha replied. It was killing Dustin that Callum was not here. He kept his attention on the coffee cup. "Would you care for more coffee?"

"No, thank you." Dustin said. He realized his escape. He rose from the chair. "If you would excuse a moment...I'll just go out to the..."

Martha turned and looked at him, smiling. "Of course." She watched Dustin walk out the back door, out toward the outside privy. He went in as she turned back to the stove. Dustin reemerged and walked slowly back to the house. He saw Callum coming up the path from the old stable, and breathed a sigh of relief at seeing him. He waited for Callum to come to him.

Callum looked him over. "It looks like you've seen a ghost. Are you alright?" Dustin felt more of what color he had drain from him at what Callum just said. He felt himself break out into a sweat. "What is it, Dustin?"

"She knows..." Dustin spoke softly.

"Knows what?"

"She heard us all night long."

Callum smiled, looking at Dustin, and then at the house, than back to Dustin. "Of course she does." Dustin's eyes went wide. "How could she not? The way you moaned all night."

"But..."

"Fret not, my love." Callum said as he put his hands on Dustin's shoulders. "She accepts it, and us." Callum leaned in and kissed Dustin on the forehead. "She knew about us in the old stable. We, sharing a bed, together, how could she not know?" Dustin relaxed a little, Callum could see it in his eyes. "Besides, she told me that her own son, my cousin, was partial to boys himself, remember?" Dustin's eyes went wide again. "It will be alright, stay calm." Callum chuckled. "It's not like there's blood in the water, and sharks are circling, eh?"

"Well,...I suppose..."

"Don't let it rub you the wrong way." Callum said with confidence in his voice, making Dustin feel more at ease.

"I suppose not."

"Very well, then." Callum turned Dustin and they walked toward the house. "Now, shall we have a little breakfast, and then get ready for the carriage?"

"Yes." Dustin said, sounding better. "Yes, I think we should."

"That's the spirit. Face it head on." Callum said as they reached the back door, opening it and stepping through. He was followed by Dustin, who shut the door. Callum looked over at Martha, and smiled. She looked up at him, seeing the smile.

"Here, what's this about?" She asked.

Callum walked over to her, kissing her again. "You, you devil. Young Dustin seems to be in a terrible fright. It seems that you stirred him up." Callum narrowed his eyebrows at her.

"Me?"

"Yes, you, you devil. You were probably listening at the keyhole last night, weren't you?"

"What? Me? Listening at...why, I never heard of such a thing."

"Of course not. Listening to two people engaged in such activity." Callum changed his look toward her, to one of mischief. "Shame on you."

She swatted at him with a spoon. "You're the devil here, young man, not meself." Callum walked away from her, grinning wide. She started muttering to herself. "Listening at keyholes,...creak, creak, moan, moan, moan...keeping an old woman up all night long..."

Callum looked over his shoulder toward the stove. "Is that a complaint I hear over there?" Callum voice was full of mischief. "I suppose I'll have to move the bed out to the old stable, just so someone can get some sleep. Tsk, tsk, have to speak to the landlord about this."

"You are a devil, Quintan Callum, a charmer, and a devil." She said aloud, walking up to the table, with the fry pan, setting it on the table, smacking him with the spoon again. "Ohh, what would your mother have said, ...honestly."

"I'm sure she would have had your candor or composure."

Martha turned and put her hands on her hips, as Callum sat down at the table. "I beg to differ, young sir. Your mother would have been the one to move out to the old stable, to give you more privacy. That's the type of person she was. Me on the other hand..."

"Listens at keyholes..." Callum smirked.

"Devil." Martha smiled. She tapped her toe on the floor, then she smiled out of the corner of her mouth, "It's been a long time since I've heard noises like that." Dustin dropped his fork, hearing what she said, his eyes went wide. She walked over and put her hands on Dustin's shoulders. She kissed the top of his head. "I know it's not your fault, Master Perkins, it's all of his."

"Think what you will, dear lady." Callum said, making her eyes go wide. Callum just smiled, looking back and forth at the two of them. He was interrupted by a knock at the back door. He looked over and saw someone in the glass. Callum got up from the table, and walked around to the door. He opened it.

"Good morning, sir."

"Morning." Callum replied, looking out, seeing quite a group assembled on the flagstone. "I see that you recruited a few extra men, Mr. Bockman."

"I did indeed, sir. I...I hope it's alright, sir."

"I only wish I had this many able bodied men aboard ship." Callum smiled. He turned to Martha, holding out his hand. "What say you, Aunt Martha? Every seen so many gathered for a task?" Martha stepped up beside Callum, looking out. She knew them all, each one. She smiled.

"It is truly a sight."

"Very well then, gentlemen. You have the approval of the lady of the house. Now, set about it, Mr. Bockman. If you require anything, please let me know. We will be leaving for Portsmouth when the carriage arrives. We should be gone only for a day or so."

"I see, sir." Bockman looked a little concerned.

"I have business at my ship, with the dock master. I wish to check on her repairs. Are you in need of money for materials? Is that why you have the hesitation?"

"Well, yes, sir. To be honest."

"I prefer honesty, Mr. Bockman. Tell me...how much do you need?"

"I'm not sure quite yet, sir."

"Then I will leave it in Martha's capable hands, then. See her when you require money for supplies."

"Very good, sir." Bockman nodded toward Callum. Callum nodded back.

Callum smiled at him, and went to close the door. The workmen set about to start the tasks that Bockman was giving them. Callum turned and looked down at Martha.

"Are you alright with doing that?" Callum asked.

"Of course."

"Than I shall fetch my purse and leave you with a portion of it." Callum turned to walk upstairs, "How's your breakfast, Dustin?"

"Very good." Dustin said with his mouth full. Callum chuckled. He walked out of the room.

Callum returned a few minutes later to the kitchen, wearing his uniform. Martha drew a breath in almost a gasp. Callum just smiled at her. Dustin looked up from the table, his eyes wide. He had never seen Callum look so bright in his clean uniform, as there was no laundry on board ship, uniforms went dull with the day to day usage. But, freshly laundered, his uniform looked brand new, as did Callum. Dustin rose to his feet, and tipped his obedience out of habit.

"We haven't reached the ship yet." Callum said, giving Dustin a wink.

"I'm sorry." Dustin whispered.

Callum smiled. "It's alright. It just tells me something, that's all." Dustin looked confused. Callum reached into his breast pocket and produced his leather purse given to him at the Admiralty. He pulled out a few notes and handed them to Martha. "This is for materials that might be needed." Callum said. He reached back in and pulled out a few more and handed them to her. "And this is for you, for supplies needed for the house."

"I have a line of credit at the mercantile." She said, looking at what was in his hand.

"Which I paid off yesterday." Callum said sternly. "I will not have it, as long as there is money in hand." He smiled at her, as her eyes went wet. He knew it was causing her worry, not being able to pay for living expenses. "This is what I speaking of last evening, being able to afford a lifestyle." She nodded her understanding to him, but did not take it. Callum set it on the table, and kissed her forehead. "Family takes care of family. Do we understand each other?" She nodded. "Good. As long as I'm alive, it will be that way."

There was a knock at the front door. Callum turned and walked to it. He opened it, and a young man was standing there. Callum just looked at him. They were about the same height, his hair was a dark brown, and eyes were of the same color. His face was tanned, like he had been in what sun there was to be had here, but not weathered.

"Your carriage, sir." The young man said, holding out his hand, toward the front gate and the road. Callum looked beyond the man and saw the carriage below.

"Very good. You're early."

"I am, sir. My father was going to drive you, but he is not well."

"I see. And you are?"

"Owen, sir."

"Very good, Owen. We are not quite ready as yet. We will join you shortly."

"As you wish, sir. I'll be at the carriage."

"Thank you." Callum said, as he closed the door. He turned, shaking his head of the thought of the young mans looks. He was very handsome. "Dustin, the carriage is here. We must be off."
