The Rajah’s Toy

An Historical Romance

By

Hyptrance

 

   As the ship sailed on into the warm darkness of the summer night, young Lt. Jeremy Betton stood at the porthole of his stateroom watching the starlight reflected in the gentle swells of the calm tropical ocean and thinking about his future. At little over nineteen, he was already well, if not irrevocably, along the path his father, the fifth Baron Denthorp, had mapped out for him. As a third son, Jeremy had little hope of ever succeeding to either the title or the income of his family, nor, by the same token, were an early marriage or potential heirs for him in any way to be encouraged. The Baron had solved the problem of what to do with the boy in a fashion typical of wealthy families in Victoria’s England. He sent his son to Sandhurst and then purchased him a commission in the Guards. So Jeremy was to be an officer, like it or not.

   Actually, the boy found that the prospect agreed with him fairly well. He liked the idea of travel to the exotic outposts of the Empire, and, as for the military policy of discouraging early marital liaisons, even without family pressure, Jeremy was in no hurry there. Not that he was completely without interest or experience. The young lieutenant was, in spite of a certain reticence, popular with the ladies. Of average height, but slim, straight, and well-muscled, he cut a fine figure on the dance floor, while a strong, narrow jaw and high cheek-bones from a distant Russian ancestor, plus thick, dark, lustrous hair and long-lashed sea-green eyes from a more recent Irish one, leant his clean-shaven face the grave beauty of a rather serious angel. On more than one occasion the previous season, Lucinda Chataway had allowed him to coax her away from the cotillion throng to some private corner or other where they exchanged a few hurried kisses, a touch or two. But, although he had found it pleasant enough, Jeremy had never felt the kind of intense excitement that his Sandhurst classmates claimed to feel in similar escapades. And he found that, all in all, he preferred the camaraderie of the all-male academy to the more demanding social life at home.

   His only real doubt concerning his immediate future was whether he was truly suited to be an officer. He did well enough at Sandhurst, but his nature was dreamy and introspective rather than commanding, and certainly, at home among his imperious family, he was much more comfortable obeying orders than giving them. And now, in a little less than two days he would make landfall in India to take up his post with the garrison at Cawnpore. Jeremy felt a nervous thrill of anticipation, and sighed, resting his chin on his hands.

   As Jeremy leaned at the porthole and stared out to sea, another pair of eyes was gazing with equal absorption at the young officer. Ram Singh, who had insinuated himself into Jeremy’s employ as a personal servant, was really an agent acting under orders from the Rajah of Cawnpore. Whatever his official title, Singh’s primary duty was the procurement of attractive, docile bed-partners for his prince, and he had specific plans for handsome Lt. Betton. Ram Singh permitted himself a small, secretive smile as he noted the way in which the tight khaki trousers of the regimental uniform clung to the young man’s shapely, muscular legs, to his firm, elegant behind, to his trim waist. Because of the heat, Jeremy was not wearing the uniform tunic, and the humidity had wilted his shirt until it molded to his lean torso as closely as the trousers hugged his legs. And then there was that deva’s face of his. Yes, the Rajah would be delighted when Ram Singh delivered the boy; all the moreso because Betton was one of the hated English oppressors, and the Rajah would enjoy owning him almost as much as he would enjoy using him.

   Ram Singh had set his trap with care. He had ingratiated himself with the young officer and struck up as much of a friendship as was possible between master and servant. It helped that Jeremy was fascinated by the idealized India of his own imagination, greeting all of his manservant’s tales and reminiscences with rapt attention. The sly Indian had been able to make him believe wild stories and (as all gifted liars can) disbelieve curious truths. It was this, indeed, that first gave Ram Singh the seed of his current plan. Among the many reports that Jeremy dismissed as impossible were those of the mental disciplines of the fakirs. As a well-trained fakir himself, Ram Singh knew that many of them were quite true. If he could use his powers to enslave the boy’s mind, he could abduct him without a struggle. Jeremy’s triple-ringed disbelief would prevent him from recognizing what was happening to him until it was too late.

   A few nights earlier, Ram Singh had shown Jeremy the mystery of the magic egg. After introducing the mystery at some length, speaking certain phrases in certain tones of voice, the Indian had produced an egg, which he tapped gently with a short, curiously carven stick. Just as he had been told he would, Jeremy watched the egg crack, revealing a chick which quickly grew into a fully fledged rooster, and then, after another stroke from the stick, dwindled back just as rapidly, first to a chick and then again to a seamless egg that Ram Singh cracked into a dish. Jeremy had applauded delightedly and asked to be taught the “bazaar trick”. The Indian had told him that it required great manual dexterity, and had even given him some meaningless sleight-of-hand exercises to practice. Of course, there was no trick involved. The Rajah’s agent had merely taken an opportunity to prove to his own satisfaction that the youth was highly suggestible by putting him in a light trance and making him see wonders.

   Since then, Ram Singh had been adding certain drugs to Jeremy’s food that would render him even more susceptible to influence. Tonight would be the night he began the final indoctrination. Everything was going to work perfectly.

   As Ram Singh prepared the young officer’s bed for him, he pretended to notice for the first time his master’s preoccupation. “Sahib seems to be troubled. Is there something needed?”

   Jeremy turned away from the porthole out of which he had been staring. “No, Ram Singh, I just seem to have a lot on my mind. After all, we land day after tomorrow, a new country, a new post. I believe I have a few butterflies.”

   “The Sahib should try to get some rest.”

   Jeremy laughed. “Why, what a nanny you are becoming, Ram Singh! The ‘Sahib’ isn’t ready for bed just yet.

   “Then perhaps the Sahib would enjoy a little more ‘bazaar magic’?” Ram Singh purred.

   “”Oh yes,” cried Jeremy, “That would be capital! Just the thing to take my mind off my nerves.”

   “Indeed, Sahib, that is exactly what this device is for.” Ram Singh brought out a curious mechanism of brightly colored glass bangles strung on wires and attached to a small hot-air windmill with three white candles to power it. He set the device on a small table in front of the most comfortable chair and directed the young man to be seated. He then lighted the three candles and turned down the hurricane lamp that lit the cabin. “The effect is best in the dark,” he said. “Now, watch.”

   As the candles heated the air above them, the small mill began to turn, the bangles spun and danced. Light from the flames sent sparks leaping through the colored glass, up and down, back and forth, down and up. Jeremy watched, at first with delight, and then with utter fascination.

   Ram Singh moved behind the chair and began to speak softly to his young master while gently stroking his temples. “Watch the light closely, Sahib, watch them. They are very beautiful are they not, and soon you will see wonderful things. We men of Hind use this device when we wish to relax and be at peace. When we are tired, as you are tired, Sahib, so tired, we watch the beautiful, beautiful lights, and our worries, our thoughts, all fade away.”

   Jeremy sat motionless, staring unblinking at the lights. Ram Singh’s words seemed to him to flow as smoothly as warm oil. He thought dimly that there was something strange about all this, but he couldn’t seem to concentrate on his thoughts. It was impossible to take his eyes from the shimmering glass, or to move his heavy head away from the gentle fingers that sent a pleasant tingling all through him.

   Again Ram Singh was speaking. “You are at peace, Sahib, just looking at the lights. You will allow your thoughts to drift away. Let them go, feel them departing. Your mind is a blank slate now. There is nothing but my voice and the lights. You have no thoughts. Let your body relax and become limp, your muscles heavy and relaxed, too heavy to move. Go ahead, Sahib, try to move, but you cannot.”

   Jeremy Betton remained as he was, motionless except for the soft rise and fall of his chest. His eyes were fixed on the flashing lights, his handsome face empty.

   “Very good, Sahib. You may stop trying. As you see, you are now completely in my power. Nothing has meaning to you but my will. You cannot choose but obey me in all things. Now, close your eyes and let go.”

   The young man’s eyes closed, and his chin tilted forward onto his chest. The Indian looked at his helpless erstwhile master and smiled. These Western Devils were so easy in some ways. They were so secure in their beliefs that they made no defense against anything not contained within them. So now, here was this handsome boy, an officer in the proud British Raj, rendered more completely Ram Singh’s slave than the best-trained dog could ever be.

   Ram Singh relit the lamp and blew out the candles in the hypnotic mechanism. He put it away and then turned back to his young captive. “The Rajah shall not receive any damaged goods,” said Ram Singh, “So I must see that you are truly perfect and suited to your new role. Open your eyes, Sahib, and stand up.”

   Obediently the boy rose slowly to his feet.

   “You understand that you must do anything I tell you, do you not? Answer me,” commanded the Indian.

   “Yes, I understand.” There was no longer any trace of the young lieutenant from Sandhurst Academy in Jeremy’s enthralled voice, only the gentle nineteen-year-old dreamer.

   “Very well, remove your clothing,” Ram Singh ordered.

   As Jeremy slowly stripped, Ram Singh also undressed. He knew better than to touch the Rajah’s prize, but there was pleasure he could have without touching. When Jeremy finally stood naked before him, the Indian instantly felt the heat begin to rise in his own body. The boy was magnificent! The long voyage on these tropical seas had given his flawless skin a thorough tan (there having been no women on board to make the wearing of scant garments seem improper), and his insistence on being useful during the trip had kept him beautifully trim. Except at the armpits and crotch, the young lieutenant had little body hair, which, Ram thought, would please the Rajah, who preferred a smooth skin, and, like most Asians, had little body hair himself.

   All of this, of course, the Indian had seen already, to one degree or another, in his capacity as body servant, but the young officer’s remaining attributes, revealed to him now for the first time, more than satisfied both Ram Singh’s hopes and the Rajah’s requirements. Jeremy’s mates in the Sandhurst dormitory had dubbed him R.A. for “Royal Artillery”, and not because he had any special knack for gunnery.

   “You are very beautiful, Sahib,” Ram crooned. “You will take care from now on that you remain so. Now, make yourself hard.”

   The boy began to stroke himself, and slowly his handsome organ rose heavily before him until it stood out stiff and straight at its full nine inches. His skin shone with a light sheen of sweat.

   “Very good, Sahib,” Ram said somewhat hoarsely, as he began to fondle his own not-inconsiderable endowment. “Continue to play with your tool, and now use one of your hands to explore your buttocks. You must learn to enjoy this as well. You will keep on until you spend.”

   The young Englishman did not immediately commence this new activity, until Ram Singh repeated the instruction, adding softly, “You cannot resist me, Sahib. Do not try.” Then his left hand, as if with a mind of its own, reached into the cleft of his arse, and he began, first with two fingers and then with three, to frig his virgin rosebud. At the same time he massaged his penis with increasing abandon. His splendid body began to writhe with pleasure, his expression an intriguing mixture of passion and blank innocence.

   Ram Singh also increased the pace of his stroke as he watched the boy helplessly masturbate and finger himself. As the Indian reached his climax he cried out, “Let loose your seed now, boy!”

   Jeremy’s body stiffened on cue, and spurt after spurt of creamy sperm shot from his engorged prick onto the table in front of him. He continued to milk himself until it was obvious that he had drained the uttermost drop. Then his hands fell limply to his sides as he waited for further orders.

   “You will do very well, Sahib. Now scoop up your spend and lick it from your fingers.” Jeremy obeyed, and when he was finished, his sensuous lips glistened. Ram cleaned himself with a small piece of cloth.

   After dressing himself on Ram’s suggestion, Jeremy was once again seated in the chair, staring blankly straight ahead. The hypnotist continued the enchantment of his subject.

   “In a moment I will return you to yourself,” he informed the entranced boy, adding with a smirk, “At least temporarily. Before that, however, I have a few instructions, which you will hear and you will obey. First, you will forget all about everything that has happened since I showed you my magic lights. You will even forget these instructions though you obey them. You will have no knowledge of having been under my spell at all. Instead of the play of lights, you will remember that I showed you… let me see… ah, yes. I showed you a lovely flower that grew from the seed, budded, blossomed and faded again, all in the space of a few moments. You will notice that the seed is still on the table when I allow you to awaken. Second, as a symbol of my continuing control over you, you will find, when you come to dress yourself tomorrow morning, that you will no longer know how to button your trousers, but will have to ask me to do it for you. This will seem quite reasonable to you. Finally, and most importantly, whenever you hear me say, ‘Obey, Sahib’, you will once again be as you now are, completely in my power, without thought or will of your own. Now, awaken.” And Ram Singh clapped his hands.

   Jeremy started slightly, and animation returned to his face. “That was amazing, Ram Singh! Please show me how it is done,” the young man exclaimed, and reached over to the table to pick up and examine the non-existent seed his manservant had told him he would see there.

   “Oh, it is as I told you, Sahib; just more bazaar magic. All it requires is a pair of skillful hands. Now perhaps the Sahib wishes to retire?”

   The young lieutenant had strangely erotic dreams that night, none of which he remembered in the morning. They were not about the charming Lucinda however, but instead featured glittering lights, a soft voice, gently caressing fingers, and stiffness thrusting into him. And the following morning, he did indeed have to ask his Indian servant to do up his trousers for him, although, oddly, he did not find this remarkable.

   Ram Singh increased the dosage of the herbal drugs in the boy’s food, relying on the hot spices to disguise any telltale flavor. That evening he once again set about the domination of his young master, hypnotizing him and re-hypnotizing him, again and again, piling trance upon trance, until he was satisfied that his hold on the boy’s mind was unbreakable.

   The ship reached land the following afternoon, and Ram Singh shepherded Jeremy into the train that would take them to Cawnpore and the garrison. They were booked into a private car (there was to be no common troop-train for the son of a baron), and so all through the long ride, the Indian was able to continue his conditioning of the helpless young man uninterrupted. Upon their arrival at the station they climbed into a waiting carriage. Jeremy was too unfamiliar with the characteristics of Indian culture to recognize the difference between a carriage-for-hire and this conveyance sent specifically for them by the Rajah in accordance with Ram’s secret communication. He did ask about his steamer trunks, but the wily servant reassured him that the staff employed by the garrison would be taking charge of all the luggage and delivering it to his quarters. It was not until they reached the palace that Jeremy had any inkling that circumstances were otherwise than he supposed.

   “This is the palace of His Highness, the Rajah of Cawnpore,” said Ram Singh.

   Jeremy looked out the carriage window. “It’s a very handsome building, certainly, but I am expected at the fort. Why are we here?”

   “Because, Sahib, this is where we are going. Now, obey, Sahib!”

   The young lieutenant stiffened instantly into immobility as the pre-arranged trigger phrase fell upon his ears. Ram Singh smiled with satisfaction. “Get out of the carriage and follow,” he commanded. With the slow, even pace and blank indifference of a sleepwalker, the handsome puppet who had been Jeremy Betton trailed after his master, up the steps and into the palace.

 

 

   Two hours later, the Rajah of Cawnpore entered a private chamber where Ram and the hypnotized officer were waiting. The Rajah was also extraordinarily good-looking. A face almost too beautiful for a man was saved from effeminacy by a strong jaw and a pair of commanding, dark eyes, as fierce and predatory as a falcon’s. Careful pampering from birth with exotic oils and essences had given his mahogany skin and raven hair the bloom and luster of perfect health. And a delight in horsemanship and the pleasures of the chase for most of his twenty-six years had resulted in a physique as lean and hard as any of his thoroughbred stallions. (It was also rumored, and with some justice, that in one other attribute the Rajah was supplied to a degree reminiscent of his horses.) He was a man to draw all eyes, and he wore the awareness of his power like a mantle. Ram Singh stood aside as the Rajah looked aver his new acquisition. Young Jeremy, now freshly bathed and shaven, and dressed in his most flattering uniform, stood stiffly at attention, oblivious of the scrutiny.

   “I have taken his mind, as I told you, Your Highness, and now I will yield it to you,” said Ram. He turned to the boy. “Sahib, this is His Highness, the Rajah of Cawnpore. Look at him.” The young officer’s eyes snapped to focus on the prince. “He is your new master. As soon as you hear his voice, you will obey him as instantly, totally, and irresistibly as you now obey me. You will exist only for his pleasure and his will. You now have no memory of your name or of who you were, and will have no identity but that which he chooses for you. You will be unable to stir hand or foot from this room without his order. Now, greet your new master properly. Obey, Sahib.” As he had been programmed to do, Jeremy knelt and bowed his forehead to the prince’s feet.

   “Stand up, boy, “ said the prince, and the young lieutenant instantly got to his feet, his will now captured by the new voice. “Ram Singh, you may leave us now,” said the Rajah. “And take with you this small token of my thanks. I am very pleased.” Ram looked into the tiny brocaded bag that was handed to him. In it were two large, perfectly matched pearls of an unusual and exquisite iridescent gray color, truly a magnificent reward. He salaamed low and backed from the room.

   When they were alone, the Rajah turned back to his prize thinking, “I cannot simply continue to call him ‘boy’. He must have a name.” Aloud he asked, “Do you remember your name, boy?”

   Jeremy slowly shook his head.

   “Very good,” the Rajah said. “You were told to forget it. But I want you to remember your name once more, although as yet you will remember nothing else that you were instructed not to. Now, tell me your name.”

   “Jeremy… I was… I am called Jeremy Betton,” the young lieutenant answered. He spoke distantly, with the air of trying to recall some impossibly remote event.

   “Well, Jeremy, I am going to have a very fine time with you. I believe you have in your benighted country a rather charming fairy-tale about a sleeping princess who is awakened by the kiss of a prince. We shall play this game together, you and I. In a moment I will give you my kiss. When I do so, you will awaken, but only to this extent: you will be able to speak and move in a normal manner, and you will find that you remember who you are and what has been done to you. However, you will still be powerless to resist anything I command you to do or to allow to be done to you, or, for that matter, anything I wish you to think or feel. Of course, you will not be able to attempt or even to contemplate any harm to me, nor will you be able to leave. Oh yes, and that useful little phrase that our mutual friend Ram Singh has invested with such power over you will still be in effect. If I say ‘obey, Sahib’, you will instantly be returned to your current state of mindless servitude. Do you understand all of this, Jeremy?”

   The boy nodded.

   “Good. Then come here to me,” the prince commanded. The young man walked over to stand before him. The Rajah took him in his arms, pressing their bodies close. He looked for a moment into the beautiful, dazed face, and then covered the soft, unresisting lips with his own.

   An electric shock could scarcely have produced a more profound effect upon Jeremy. Suddenly memory lit up in his head, including, for the first time, the memory of Ram Singh’s treachery; the colored lights, the soothing voice, the outrageous masturbation! And he was being kissed by another man! Being kissed, but strangely unable to keep from returning that kiss. He even had, embarrassingly, the beginnings of an erection, yet he could not pull away. His body did not seem to know how.

   As the Rajah deliberately lingered over the sensual kiss, he felt the reactions run through the young man; first, the body relaxing from its previous entranced rigidity, then, almost immediately stiffening anew in shock. He could feel the heat on his lips from the blushes rising to the boy’s face, and he could also feel the slight hardening in the lieutenant’s crotch.

   When the prince broke off the kiss, Jeremy sprang back from him spluttering. “Dear God, what have you done to me?! This is monstrous!”

   “Merely given you the chance to experience foreign oppression at first hand, Sahib,” the Rajah said dryly, giving the ironic title none of Ram Singh’s practiced servility. He watched with amusement as the young Englishman stormed over to the door of the chamber. But as the boy reached it, his body froze in place. He was unable to lift either foot to take one more step, or to raise his hands to the latch. He turned back bewildered.

   “Remember, Jeremy, you cannot leave,” the prince chuckled. “Besides, your body is already telling me that you could enjoy this more than you are willing to admit to yourself.”

   Enjoy it!!” Jeremy shouted. “How could any normal man enjoy this?!” But even to himself, his outrage did not sound entirely sincere.

   “You grow tiresome, lieutenant. Now be silent, and undress,” the prince commanded.

   Jeremy opened his mouth to protest further, and discovered, to his horror, that he was incapable of uttering a sound. At the same time, his hands seemed to take on a life of their own, and began quickly to unbutton his uniform tunic.

   “No, no,” remonstrated the Rajah. “Slow down. Make your disrobing a thing of beauty. And while you are about it, since your body apparently knows what it wants better than you do, allow it free reign to please itself.” He kneaded his crotch and smiled lasciviously.

   Jeremy’s hands immediately slowed their assault on his clothing. Now, in between undoing tunic buttons, they began to caress his body through the cloth. The boy stroked his chest and stomach, his shoulders, fondled his throat. He inserted one finger into his mouth to tease the tip of his tongue, and then sensuously rubbed the moistened fingertip over his lips and nostrils.

   Ram Singh had deliberately omitted all under-clothing when he had dressed the helplessly enthralled young man after his bath, and so, when Jeremy unfastened the last button, his tunic fell open to reveal his bare chest. He began to play with his nipples until they contracted into hard little peaks. Then he shrugged off the tunic. The Rajah gave a low whistle of approval for the boy’s naked torso, and began to rub himself harder.

   Jeremy began to run his hands over his arse and crotch, stroking himself through his trousers. His erection was now unmistakable behind the thin material, and his fly was stained with a damp circle of his fluid. He kicked off his boots and quickly pulled off his trousers, to continue his explorations on bare skin. One hand fondled his ball sac, while the other delved into the cleft between his buttocks. His prick twitched and stiffened.

   “Much better, my young friend,” said the Rajah. “I am enjoying this a great deal, and it is apparent that you are as well.” Noting that the young lieutenant’s hand was still busily fingering his rosebud, he added, “I am pleased to see that you are not insensible to the pleasures of the rear entryway. I shall want to make some use of that. Now come here and help me to undress.”

   Although his trance-augmented arousal was making it less and less possible for the young Englishman to function at any non-sexual level, still he made one last effort to resist. It was useless. Even as he tried to turn away, his traitorous legs began to take him over to the prince, where, helplessly, he began to remove the man’s clothing.

   The Rajah was wearing only a loose dressing gown, so in very little time he too was naked. In spite of himself, Jeremy found his eyes drawn to the powerful body and the formidable cock.

   “I think we shall try something different now,” said the prince. “Obey, Sahib.” Jeremy was immediately once more a rigidly attentive automaton.

   The Rajah, after making certain that the young man was again wide open to suggestion, continued, “I have shown you that your body understands its needs better than your mind. Cease your futile attempts to deny what has become your true nature, and let your passion rule you. When I touch you, you will return to that same degree of awareness I permitted you a few moments ago, but you will be overcome by irresistible lust. Although you will not realize that it has anything to do with my commands, you will desire me as I desire you!” He then reached down and caressed the boy’s rigid member.

   Jeremy blinked in surprise, standing frozen for a moment, as though trying to comprehend his sudden change of mind. Then, like any randy nineteen-year-old whose self-control has been vanquished by his glands, the boy stopped thinking altogether. The next instant he was upon the Rajah with his hands and mouth. So enthusiastic was his onslaught that the Indian lost his balance, and the two of them fell onto the divan behind them in a passionate tangle of arms and legs. The young lieutenant licked the man’s earlobes and throat, nuzzled his armpits, sucked and chewed on his nipples until the Rajah groaned with delight. He ran his fingers through the prince’s thick hair, and kissed him fiercely, his tongue probing and then retreating as the Indian’s tongue in turn pushed its way into his mouth. As he melted into the deep kiss, the boy felt himself opening up totally. The spell was complete. He had yielded his mind and body, will and desire, and was now truly the Rajah’s toy, to serve and be used at his pleasure.

   The prince, sensing this ultimate capitulation, whispered, “I want to enter you, Jeremy. Make us both ready.”

   The boy caressed the man’s thighs and fondled his balls. He lowered his head to the prince’s crotch, where his warm breath played tantalizingly over the throbbing erection. Then he began to lick it and suck it, more and more, deeper and faster, wetter and wetter, until the magnificent tool was covered with a coating of spit and lubricious fluids, and was a stiff as a rod of iron. Then he turned over onto his stomach, submissively presenting his arse, which he began to work with his still moist fingers.

   The Rajah gently moved Jeremy’s hand aside, and began to nuzzle and lick the youth’s inviting cleft. He was inflamed by the firm resilience of the tight muscular buttocks, and the musky, erotic scent of the clean, pink hole. Rendered almost as unthinking in his lust as the young officer was by entrancement, the prince could restrain himself no longer. He positioned his slick pole at the spit-lubricated opening and drove it home.

   Jeremy whimpered a little, but his erection grew even harder, leaking almost continuously, and as the Rajah built up a rhythm to his thrusts, the hypnotized boy began helplessly to thrust against the smooth fabric of the divan in time with him. Soon, both men were panting and heaving in the throes of orgasm. The Indian shot a massive load into Jeremy’s arse, and the cloth beneath the boy was covered with damp splotches from his own powerful emission.

   The Rajah held the boy in his arms and waited as the last waves of pleasure subsided, his eyes refocused, and his breathing returned to normal. His spent prick softened and slipped from the young officer’s arse. Almost tenderly he murmured, “Obey, Sahib.” Jeremy stared into his eyes with rapt concentration.

   “In the chamber next to this one, Ram Singh will be waiting for you,” the Rajah said. “When I give you permission to leave me, he will clean you and return you to your garrison. You will remain in a deep trance until he restores your awareness. I give you the choice to remember this experience or not, as you wish. It will, in any case, make no difference, as you will find yourself completely incapable of revealing anything about it to anyone. Nor will you be able to take action against me in any way because of it. For, as long as I wish it to be so, you are mine. However much you may appear to control your own life, I will still own your body and your mind. From time to time (and since you please me well, it is likely to be soon and often), I will send a message to you through Ram Singh or another of my servants. The message will read simply ‘Obey, Sahib’, and it will compel you just as if I had spoken the words to you aloud. You will be seized by an irresistible compulsion to come to me as soon as humanly possible (although without arousing suspicion – I have no wish to war openly with your British Raj), and once here, you will again be my devoted love-slave.” He ran his hands appreciatively over the hard young body one more time and then said, “You may go.” Jeremy walked slowly out through that same door that had earlier defeated him, and went to find Ram Singh.

 

 

   Those who, a hundred years later, would be students of that magic Ram Singh had used, and call it hypnotism, would maintain young Lt. Betton’s experience to be impossible. No one, they would claim, could be so thoroughly controlled against his will. And perhaps they would be correct. Yet, although Jeremy’s stiff British code of moral behavior never did allow him to recall what he did on any of the many, many occasions when the Rajah summoned him, still, whenever that summons arrived, the charmed words never failed to send him off to his master as obedient as a well-trained puppy. So, if Ram Singh’s herbs and hypnotic spells were not enough to account for it, then the boy’s susceptibility may have been due to the fact that he had finally found, in the rough embrace of the Rajah of Cawnpore, that intensity that had eluded him in the arms of Lucinda Chataway.
