17 years ago there was an incident in a nearby village. A demon lived there. Not any demon, but a nine tailed fox. This fox was a beautiful young woman, loved by many, but no one loved her more than her husband, the lord who she married to at a young age. If she lived 10 years with a trustworthy man without harming anyone, she could become human. A rival lord finds out her secret and a dispute nearly waged war. The Lady sacrifices herself for peace. The dispute ended, but little did they know she had 3 beautiful baby girls and was hidden somewhere safe.


"Report to Lord Asai that I'm back from the market. You know what I will see him myself, you are dismissed. Go on about with your duties" said a bright young woman cheerily.

"Yes Lady Tama."

Her long, blonde hair curled to perfection and cascaded down to her butt. Her rose pink eyes shined brightly and her body looked like it was sculpted by god himself. She was wearing a white kimono with cherry blossom petals. She was a woman with many admirers.

She took off her shoes and walked into the palace in which she shared with her husband. Sliding the door that lead to their chambers, she peeked in. Her husband was working on something. He guided the paintbrush on the paper with precise and slow strokes. He looked so majestic working hard like that and she found herself smiling at him. The busy lord finally realized that he was being watched and he turned his attention to his beautiful wife, who was now in the room.

He was a very handsome young man and practically oozed of sex appeal. His body was muscular and very well toned. His raven hair was tied neatly into a ponytail and his azure eyes showed that he was powerful. And indeed he was. He was truly a man worth being respected and even feared. Both husband and wife were loved and are still sought by others. Men practically drooled when looking at her. While women threw themselves at him in hopes of being a concubine, but he only had room for only one woman.

He walked over to her and held her hands gingerly.

" How is my beautiful wife doing this fine day?" Her face suddenly changed from happy to annoyed.

" Fine, but did you really need to assign so many guards. I really don't need a mini army following me. And don't play dumb, I sensed 10 others in the shadows today. You know perfectly well that I am able to detect danger and that I can defend myself perfectly fine." He smiled and pulled her into his hard chest, breathing in her scent.

"I have plenty of reasons to do so." She looked up at him with curiosity.

"What reasons?" He smirked,

"Number 1: lecherous men wouldn't dare touch you. Number 2: I know of your whereabouts and..." he trailed off. She was very curious now.

" And what?!" she asked him impatiently. He let another sexy smirk grace his lips.

"Number 3: We've been together for nearly 10 years now and married for 2.I haven't even touched you once because you want our children to be human, with you being a fox and all. You only have a few months left until you can become human. I am not going to let you harm someone and make it even longer for me." After hearing this she blushed a crimson red. He laughed at her reaction,

"We have been married for a long time now and yet you still act bashful around me." She just buried her face into his chest to try to hide her embarrassment. He used his right hand to lift her face up to him,

" That's one of the many things I love about you... my little vixen." He leaned down and kissed her lips softly.

Outside their window, a white messenger bird could be seen flying towards the South. Toward the Southern lord's territory. Seems like there is a leak somewhere in his palace.

Southern Lord's Territory

The Southern lord was a cruel man. He collected a lot of taxes from his citizens for his own palace was littered with gold treasures and expensive items, all from his citizens. He was at the same age as the Northern Lord, 20, and yet he could be mistaken for a 40 year old. He was very fat and obese. The remaining hair on the top of his head was curly orange and he was already graying. He had many concubines. Too many to count and yet not a single one was as beautiful as the Northern lord's single wife.

"That Northern Lord is an idiot letting a demon seductress be his it loses control, that demon will be our undoing. The northern territory is too powerful to take head on. Send a message to the Eastern and Western lords to negotiate. We're going on a fox hunt. " He smiled with his yellow crooked teeth at his advisers.

"And to think- I was going to take her and make her mine. Oh well. Maybe I can make her my pet or something" he mused. Laughter erupted from this conference room. Something big was going to happen and there will be sacrifices.


Within days he received messages from the East and West. The Western land had agreed to help with the eradication of the nine tails. However, the Eastern Lord was a comrade of the North. Even though Tama was a demon, the lord knew her true nature and he cannot betray his friends. Instead of joining the South and West, he warned the North in advance personally.

" The outcome is in their favor now that the West had joined forces with the South. They want to kill Lady Tama. If you lose this war, you will also lose your land and quite possibly your life. I have sent a spy, and they plan to do it soon. Please do stay on guard Lord Asai." said the Eastern Lord. The Eastern Lord is a powerful and handsome man. He had known Lord Asai since childhood and he respected Tama. He had short chin length raven hair and crimson red eyes.

" Although I have the most power, I can't possibly win like this alone. They'll eliminate anything that is in their way. My people may be in danger." panicked Lord Asai, Tama was sitting by his side. The Eastern Lord shook his head,

" You are not doing this alone. I may not be able to send my whole army to you, for I have my own land to protect during this, but I will assist you by sending some of my men. It could change the outcome. Both sides might even be evenly matched." Tama stood,

" If both sides are evenly matched, then this war could last forever. There will be unnecessary blood shed. Kill me and this dispute will end." Both of the Lords eyes bugged out and they jumped out of their seats.

" No! This dispute is to protect you. I can't let you leave my side." yelled Lord Asai. Tama shook her head,

" Are you both prepared to have your men die? Are you ready to have many lives risked for the safety of one?! Please Reconsider!" Both lords were silent. After that they went up to their rooms to retire for the night. The Eastern Lord was staying in a guest room in another wing of the castle.

In their chambers

The lord and lady were in their nightwear sitting in silence.

"Milord, It is getting late. You have to sleep. I shall await for your decision." He just stared at her.

" How can I sleep. It seems that no matter what, you will not get to turn human. This could be one of our last nights together."

" That's why I will sacrifice myself. This is what I want. Please say the command, it will make me happy" she pleaded lifted her hand to his cheek. His azure eyes showed signs of sadness,

"...Fine..." She smiled warmly at him. He laid down in the mattress and turned to the opposite side. She just stood there for a moment.

The lord was just laying in bed waiting for sleep to wash over. He heard clothing hit the floor, but he dismissed it. Then he felt something warm press against his back and he turned around to his side to see. It was the Lady she was butt naked in all of her glory. Her face was a crimson red.

"w wh- what are you doing Tama?!" He yelled. She blushed even redder if that's even possible.

"It is going to be our last n-night t-to-together." They just stared at each other for a minute.

Outside a bird could be heard flying away. They both smiled a devious smile. The Lord is going to need to get rid of the leaking problem, but right now it was working to his advantages. That little spy can send the messages. Everything was going according to plan.
