The lights of the room are dim, the glow of the firelight coming from a dozen candles placed strategically around the room filling the air with the mingled scent of both rose , jade and vanilla musk wafting slowly up towards the roof from their positions next to the candles.
In the centre of the room a young male kneels with his head down reciting words from a book under his breath but also in his heart. his long hair arranged with flowers chosen by the Master that the 38 year old is ready to pledge his life, his heart and his body too, a pledge given without hesitation or regret as the only article of clothing on the male is a white cloak draped over his shoulders and a hood covering his face, a symbolic article prepared and hand made both to symbolize his pledging to the older Man as being the purest gift of his heart, but also the naked body underneath to show that he offers all he is up to Him.
Slowly the door to the room opens, and not a word is spoken as it closes behind the Man entering, a loud click is heard and echoes through the room sealing the pair inside and making the boy's heart begin to race with anticipation for the ceremony to come, the moments that he has been preparing both his body and his mind for is about to start. The kneeling male's heart however has been prepared long before this moment. The Master approaches but not a word is spoken reaches don to place the tps of his fingers underneath the boy's chin, lifting his head up with both care and strength, a strength that is shared when their eyes meet His to the boy's the submissive recognizing his Master as the male pulls back the white hood a movement to show that his mind is open to his Master's will.
The Master looks down upon the boy, He is also hooded and cloaked, only beneath the hood He wears a half Venetian mask, one crafted from lace and leather, paid for by the boy, a gift to show that he is ready to become what he always wanted...Claimed.
