Tony and Cleop Act Zero Scene Two

 Act Zero

Scene Two

Sex and power go together.

 

“Caesar …...”

“You may call me Julius, my love.” The older man held the lady, who was twice as young to hm. Julius Caesar of Rome was the grand master of the empire, and from his influence and power, he made Rome the leader of the crime world. He was then in Egypt, a smaller territory that came to his attention when his rival, Pompey Senior, took shelter there. Caesar had pursued the other, but Pompey was murdered by the Egyptian boys on the order of the boss there.

“We have shot Pompey in the head.” Ptolemy, the boss there, told Julius Caesar. “We have served his corpse to the crocodiles.”

Julius Caesar heard of the so-named crocodiles, which were alligators, but whatever happens in Egypt stays in Egypt. He was more entranced by the appearance of Ptolemy’s sister, Cleop. He stayed on to consolidate his influence and assisted Ptolemy in expanding the territory. It was also to be near Cleop. He hardly sees her, except in the company of Ptolemy.

Until then.

“Why do you detest your brother?” Julius Caesar asked her. She had sneaked into his chamber, carried by her servants with the bed wraps there. If it was not love at first sight, then it was a fuck available. She told him he was her first, and that cemented their affair. Ptolemy knew of the affair and challenged Caesar. It was a weak battle, for Julius had a better commander in the appearance of Mark Antony. The latter cornered Ptolemy on the Nile. It was not known what the real event was, but Ptolemy was said to have been killed and eaten by the crocodiles.

Cleop and Julius Caesar were together until the moment when Julius made his return to Rome due to the issues there. It was in Rome when Julius was killed by Brutus, then a Consul of Rome. Brutus fled Rome after the killing and was pursued by the new Caesar, Octavius and Mark Antony. He died on his own two hands after being cornered.

That ended the affair between Cleop and Julius.

Cleop returned to Egypt to be named Queen. It was not long when Mark Antony arrived there.

“I am sent by Caesar to look after Julius’s interest.” Mark told the Queen.

“The new Caesar?” Cleop asked. “How will you served me then?”

Mark Antony did that, and he soon shared Cleop’ bed too.

It was the tale that the maids knew in Egypt.

“God, I wish she would get over it with Mark Antony.” Charmian flopped her tired body onto the bedding. She shared the chamber with Iras and Alexas. There was the rope with the bell that the Queen would pull to summon them.

“She still thinks of him. He is gone, married, and fucking the other woman.” Charmian cried out.

“She loved him. “Alexas spoke from her side of the bed. They shared the main bedding, while Iras has her own single bedding on the side.

“Love is a splendorous thing, but when apart, the love dwindles.” Charmian sighed. She had never known love in her life; she has some lovers, and they all fucked and left. She felt herself devoid of the need, for her fingers could do the task better.

“Tell that to Iras. I think she is in love.” Alexas, being the oldest among them, herself was nearing forty and smiled. “I saw the way she looked at Mardian.”

“The Eunuch? You are wrong, Alexas. Iras loved the fuck, but not the wedding. Mardian could not give her the family she wanted.” Charmian said. It was then that Iras returned to the chamber. She looked like she had run the marathon then.

“How is the bitch?” Iras removed her clothes before she washed her body.

“The bitch is fine. She thinks of Mark Antony.” Charmian sighed. “Nothing excites her anymore. My tongue and fingers are all tired.”

“What happened to you, Iras? Was Mardian rough again?” Alexas saw the bruises on Ira's back.

“Nope, he was good. We have our work, and it was satisfying. I am telling you that brute force is a force to be reckoned.” Iras laughed. “He could last the hour, and all I ever had to do was move my body to his needs.”

“I am sure.” Charmian smiled. “You wanted it forceful.”

“It was better than to put on a performance for the bitch. She ought to have her fuck by Mardian, and she will not remember Mark Antony anymore.” Iras smiled.

“The bitch does not like... She once told me,” Alexas said. “He feared them since he was young. Ptolemy used to tease her about them violating her. If you hadn't noticed, only Mardian was near her. The others are kept below deck.”

“The bitch is the Queen. She can decide what and who.” Iras said. “Me, I am content with my fuck. Not a messy pregnancy.”

“Have you asked Mardian if he ever wanted a family?’ Alexas asked.

“Never and would never ever. I like to keep things the way they are now. Sex and more sex.” Iras smiled. “More to it, Mardian is the power among the others. No one dares touch me. He will squeeze their balls if anyone tries.”

“So, sex and power matter, huh?” Charmian laughed. “Me? I am taking a good rest now. Anyone care to diddle me to sleep?”

“Fuck yourself.” Iras replied.
