M looking for F - The Duke's special slave and his son the heir

[Parker]

What if the son of a powerful Duke, heir to his title and holdings, developed a profound attraction to his father’s favored concubine/slave?

This scenario is delicious to me. Here's a bit more of how I see it:

He’s young royalty and power incarnate, the heir to his father’s powerful fief and educated from birth to rule when his time comes. Rather than arrogant, I see him as thoughtful, and certainly he’s fit and vigorous.

She’s his father’s preferred, talented and priceless slave renowned for her beauty and sensuality. She is at once a beautiful ornament, plaything, and skilled confidant to the Duke. She’s been owned by the House since his son was quite young and I see her as extremely wise in the service of powerful men, and attune to what they require.

Now the son has reached majority although he’s not yet Duke, fate could effect that transfer of power at any moment. He must be ready to assume the office; but while perhaps not an innocent he’s still a bit naive... especially in matters of women, both free and slave. To rule well he needs to understand his place as a man, as one of the free, and as a Duke. In this scenario I see the consort as having a serious role in this education.

The dynamics of this scenario are intriguing to me - the tension between older and younger, and power dynamics between a slave and master. Added to this is the intricacy of the fact that she is his father’s preferred slave, perhaps at once a matronly influence and now recently an object of intense desire to the young scion. To this mix you could add complicated romance - I don’t expect the son has regular access privileges to his father’s prize slave, so there’s the potential for intrigue and slow aching seduction and temptation. The scenario could also be spiced with dark kinks that suggest themselves in the Master/slave scenario - humiliation, objectification, and perhaps a bit of pseudo-incest given part of her role in his life to this point.

Does the Duke know about the growing tension between her and his son? Has he condoned it, specified how she is to gradually tutor him in important topics of etiquette and sensuality? Or is their affair a secret, dangerous thing - necessary but full of risk? She sees a need to “educate” the young man, develop his outlook and help form him into a Duke.

How has his attention towards her developed over time, to the point now where despite plentiful beauty at court and residence he daydreams about his father’s personal slave?

For setting, I like alternate-modern or near future, a setting we recognize as close to our own but where both slavery and a noble class exist. I can also see this playing easily as scifi. I'm open to a historical setting, but it's not my first choice.

I’m looking for a partner to create along these lines, to flesh this out a bit and explore the characters and setup before actually starting the story. It could be just the setup discussion, a short term one-off for a particular scene between them, or an extended story where we detail how the two grow together.

I have more ideas on details than I've written out here, and I have some rough ideas about appearances but nothing I'm wed to. I’m looking for a writer who doesn’t mind a somewhat-quirky reply schedule; I’m in the Hawaiian time zone and some days I can write quite a bit, some days not at all. I’m very much in favor of OOC chat and getting to know my writing partners, although of course I don’t expect to know a great deal of personal detail.

If you’re interested drop me a line, and let’s start sifting through possibilities.
