VICE CHIEF OLABODE
************************
It has been two days since that bastard's Ìrúbọ Ashe and my wounds still ache me. That mad man only used his Ashe once against me and my body feels like it was battered by a whole squad of Ogun warriors. And even when he used it, it wasn't to harm me. Despite the healing magic of my wife and the therapeutic bathing of the Osun maidens, my body still ached as I walked into "PANṢAGA" with my cloaked self at the hour of darkness. For even if everyone knew of my frequent visits to the whorehouse, the second in command to the Olu Awo shouldn't be seen proudly going to a whorehouse.
I entered the clay made building with drawings on it's walls of men and women merrying, drinking and having sex. I passed through the huge merry parlour with men around sitting by round wooden tables with jugs of palm wine, drinking and cutting as some also cuddled ashewos...the prostitutes. I gestured at the head of the establishment "MAMA ABENI", that i was heading to my usual quarters and she should order girls over. She seemed to be getting up to approach me but I ignored and headed to the room for if she wanted to talk, it would be with me on my pleasure mat with the ashewos. I went straight to the room at the far end of the hallway at which the rooms were and entered as i opened the multicolored curtain enclosing it at the door.
I entered to hear giggling, then saw three ashewos with their tits revealed and on short skirts, as they played with a man on the uplifted raffia mat as a hearth in the centre of the room illuminated the place. They stopped as they noticed me entering. The man then laughed
" Ladies , here is who i paid for......sorry I won't be playing with you tonight"
Coming off the mat into the light, i then recognized him to be Ogundele's first son, The Silver Tongue.......Oluwalekan Láaróyè Odede. In his dark majestic dansaki, he stood up looking at me with a smug look on his face. He has a handsome face on a low haircut but unlike his father, he's lean but has his height and skin colour.
With my gaze falling to the amulet laced around his neck, depicting two faces with one smiling cheerfully and the other with an evil smirk, he notices and says
" You like it?..."
I then looked at him with disdain but his smile didn't waver as he kept on talking as he played with the amulet,
" Sorry I can't be offering you it tho....for it's more than just an ornament to me"
Then gesturing towards the ashewos, he went on,
"But I did settle your dues for tonight regarding these women, i made sure to select the best of the flock"
I replied with an annoyed tone as i eyed the ashewos,
" I never asked of your aid my p...." But he interrupted me midway, still with that smiling look on his face
" No, i insist...i feel that's the least i can do after that stupid man's actions towards you"
With even the ashewos staring at him mildly shocked, i responded with an inquisitive tone,
" You would call the General....Ogundele....YOUR FATHER....stupid?"
For the first time since we started communicating, his smile wavered. Replaced with a dark look on his face and his eyes with a shade of red, he rubbed the evil looking part of his amulet and replied me in a cold manner,
" He defended the OLOSSI.....he stopped the killing of one of the very things that pillage our lands and this he did at your expense.......attacking the mouthpiece of the Orishas!"
As his smile returned, he kept on
" Worse words should be used for a man that dares assault the priest second to the Olu Awo"
Amazed by what he said, i rested my vexing demeanor and thanked him,
" Well then, i will very much entertain the benefits of your gifts" As i went past towards the ashewos with them dressing up their seductive antics. He then headed for the exit, stopped at it and looked at me saying,
" Ohhhh.....and also i didn't just pay for tonight, i covered the bills for the whole year and made sure they don't bore you with the same girls......have a good night sir"
He then left the room before I could attempt to thank him. Then the ashewos proceeded to lay with me as they removed their wears and caressed my body. I took them into arms and progressed into mating as my mind remained appalled by the man's generosity.
