Night after night, day after day, he is forced to gratify the leader’s sexual appetite. Though Shirou is extremely strong and is able to fight off any attacker’s, he cannot, for the life of him, repel Sougetsu-sama’s advances. Shirou hates the bandit leader with all his might, yet cannot deny the sexual gratification that the man brings him. The bandit leader, Sougetsu-sama, has many lovers.
