Ruby had met her in a seedy club, a Faunus club, with a lupine doorman who treated at her like a bad smell, a reptilian bartender who almost refused to serve her, and patrons of all species who eyed her like a piece of meat.
It didn't matter to Ruby, she understood their ire, humans were hateful, bigoted and cruel, ostracising the Faunus for their instincts, their animalistic tendencies and limbs. Ruby found them beautiful, Ruby found them alluring.
Ruby had begun frequenting the place to escape the elitism of Atlas, a city so mired in its ways that even she was an outsider. The only person who seemed to respect Ruby was her boss, Weiss Schnee. And even so, she was cold and distant, awfully snappy, not exactly friend material, but Ruby tried all the same.
It surprised Ruby that a Faunus approached her, it shocked her that it wasn't to ask her, in a threatening manner, why she was here. The tall cat Faunus had simply strode up to her booth, hidden in a back corner of the club, and asked to sit with her.
"S-sure!" Ruby had squeaked, the Faunus' ears had flicked upon hearing, Ruby worried her pitch had hurt her, but she simply grinned and slid into the booth, sitting almost uncomfortably close to the human. Almost.
"Blake." She purred.
"Ruby." Ruby whispered. Blake's grin was almost predatory.
"And what is such a delightful little gem doing in a place like this?" Blake asked.
"I-I thought I…might...find some company." Ruby stammered.
"Oh?", Blake exclaimed, "And you chose a Faunus bar to prowl?" She wiggled her ears for emphasis.
Ruby couldn't help but stare, they were just so beautiful. "Yea, all the human bars are really…expensive and so…uptight…I like Faunus." Blake shifted closer, and Ruby did not pull away.
"You don't like humans?" Blake slid an arm behind Ruby, resting on top of the booth cushion, yet still it's presence made Ruby flush, as did the molten gaze Blake levelled at her.
"Not really…d-do you?" Ruby mumbled.
Blake smirked, "I like you." Ruby felt her heart skip a beat, not moving a muscle as Blake leaned in, whispering into her ear, "Just what kind of company do you desire?"
Ruby whimpered.
Ruby had not expected her first time with a Faunus to be in the disabled bathroom of a seedy bar, but the setting seemed to fit, barely just met, hardly knowing more than each other's names, and Ruby was sitting on the sink bench, panties dangling from her left ankle, legs spread for the Faunus, who's rough tongue sent sparks through her spine.
"Gods Blake!" Ruby had sobbed, every languid stroke a new euphoria, she had almost broken down when Blake ceased her ministrations, standing to meet Ruby in a fiery kiss, she adored her own taste, even more so on the lips of another.
"Are you safe?" She asked, after breaking the kiss, hands unzipping her dark pants to reveal purple briefs, a bulge straining from within. Ruby hadn't asked, she had done her research, if you could call it that, an uncommon, but well known occurrence in some Faunus species.
"N-No." Ruby had whimpered, looking as apologetic as possible for a flushed little girl with her legs spread, Blake had smiled, not maliciously, but gently, cupping her cheek.
"Will you trust me?" She murmured.
Ruby felt her heart warm, and she nodded.
Blake had been gentle at first, her member, modest in length, and just the right girth, splitting her petals slowly, Ruby had squeaked with each inch, before they shared a breathy moan as she bottomed out. Then Blake had kissed her, passionately, pulling Ruby into her arms as she began to pump her length deep inside.
Ruby had never been particularly loud, at least beforehand, but as Blake's pace picked up, her moans grew in intensity, they paused only once, Blake halting to calm herself, Blake's shaky breath and shuddering movements screamed her desperation to keep going, to ravish her unprotected sex and sate her lust, but Ruby had trusted her, she would not violate that, she would not violate her.
Blake made her scream when she came, if Blake had filled her at that moment, it would have been worth it. But Blake's self-control held out, after recovering, Ruby had gladly knelt, serving the Faunus until she swallowed every last drop of seed.
"I'll get the pill, n-next time you won't have to hold back." Ruby promised.
Blake had looked taken aback, "You want there to be a next time?"
"Yea! Unless..you don't?" Ruby failed to hide the hurt in her voice.
Blake pulled her into another fiery kiss in response.
The Faunus had walked Ruby home afterward, it wasn't far, a half hour walk through one of the poorer parts of town. Ruby carried pepper spray and a Taser, but Blake's taller, stronger form made her feeler infinitely safer by her side.
"Do you want to come in?" Ruby had asked, after stopping in front of her apartment building.
Blake kissed her again, "I have work tomorrow...but not the day after?"
"Same time tomorrow?" Ruby suggested.
Blake grinned, "Definitely."
The next day, Ruby picked up a prescription for birth control, and morning after pills. The doctor had said it was a seven day wait for them to kick in, but Ruby would not disappoint Blake again. After meeting her for the second time, they found themselves in a similar position.
"You can, if you want, I-I got morning after pills, the doctor says it'll take a week for the birth control to work." Ruby stammered, once again dripping from Blake's attentions. The Faunus simply smiled, leaning in to peck Ruby on the cheek.
"Then I'll wait a week."
And so, she did, for a week Blake was patient, despite the desire that rushed through her veins, she never took the risk. Whether it was in the bathroom at the bar, Ruby's chilly apartment, or Blake's cosy loft above a local bookstore, Blake waited.
The night finally came, and so did Blake.
It was an eye-opening experience. Ruby found she adored the feeling of being filled, she was hyper aware of every sensation, Blake's teeth at her neck, her length throbbing within her, the heated seed gushing deep within, it was like a drug. And Ruby was addicted. She was addicted to Blake.
Her days were spent in waiting, work seemed to blur, as she fulfilled the tasks set out by her boss, who noted the extra spring in her step.
"I met someone wonderful." Ruby had explained.
Weiss rolled her eyes, "It's a good look for you."
The phrase had conjured the image of Ruby painted with Blake's seed, something she had requested one night, Ruby would have preferred it inside, but she couldn't deny the sight was erotic, covered in Blake's semen, marked, claimed.
Ruby flushed, and nervously giggled, Weiss waved her away, muttering something about 'young love'.
It seemed in no time a month had passed, they had agreed to celebrate their anniversary with another round of sex in the bar's bathroom. They had grown less frequent over the weeks, preferring the comfort and convenience of their homes. This was the first time in a week and a half, and was intended to be their last.
They made out passionately, stripping almost entirely nude, the door was locked, there would be no interruptions. Blake spent even more time than usual lapping at her lower lips, nearly driving her to orgasm twice before relenting, standing to rub her length against her silky folds, coating it in Ruby's juices. Just as she began to push the tip in, Ruby gasped, lifting her feet to Blake's stomach, holding her at length.
"Blake…I forgot to take my pill…" Ruby whispered breathlessly, heart beating rapidly, eyes wide with shock, "I…nngh!"
Blake pushed in, only an inch, Ruby was incapable of stopping her, the feet were just to get her attention. Blake held her gaze as she slowly slid her length inside, Ruby whimpering all along, pausing when she hilted.
"Ruby." Blake's gentle voice soothed her, "Will you be my mate?" Strong hands rubbed her back, she leaned in closer as Ruby took in her question.
"W-Will you keep me safe?" Ruby stammered.
Blake gently kissed her, bumping her head against Ruby's. "Always, with my life."
Ruby grinned, tearing up, she kissing Blake again, fully, and wrapped her legs around the Faunus' waist.
"Make me yours." Ruby begged.
Blake slowly withdrew, before thrusting back in, forcing a moan from the smaller girl, she began kissing down Ruby's jaw, one hand slowly clawing down her back, the other grasping at her rear. Ruby gasped as Blake suckled on her earlobe, and squealed as her sharp nails gouged her skin, Blake was only as gentle as Ruby told her to be, and tonight, there would be blood.
Her thrusting increased in intensity, faster, harder, better, Ruby's nails dugs uselessly into Blake's back, her own nails too short and weak to damage her skin, let alone find purchase in the sweat, she could feel the tell-tale pressure of orgasm building towards its peak, and clutched Blake closer, burying her face in the Faunus' shoulder, whining and keening.
Suddenly, Blake picked Ruby up, and lay her on the ground, resuming her thrusting with newfound vigour, Ruby could barely gasp the air required to wail as her sex was pounded harder than Blake had ever mustered before, Blake's arms tightened around her back, she felt a throb down below, then a sharp, agonizing, euphoric pain in her shoulder, as Blake reached her climax.
The first burst of warmth sent Ruby over the edge, and she clutched onto Blake for dear life as her orgasm sent bolts of lightning through her entire being, the warmth in her pelvis grew, the pain in her shoulder faded, and all ceased to exist but her, and her mate.
Her mate. Blake Belladonna.
"Are you okay, Ruby?" Blake whispered, concerned.
Ruby chuckled breathlessly, "I'm fine Blakey, my neck stings a bit though."
Blake huffed, before leaning back down and gently licking the wound, her canines had punctured the skin, but the rest had left a slowly darkening bruise.
Blake planted a kiss on each puncture, "Sorry Ruby, instinct." Ruby felt her eyes sting.
"It's okay, I don't mind, I like being marked by you. It makes me feel…normal?"
Blake laughed, "I thought humans are supposed to be the normal ones."
"Just because we think we're so high and mighty, 'Oh look at us, we can't smell fear and see in the dark, we're so pure and boring', we suck, I want a tail, maybe I won't fall down so often."
Blake laughed again, pecking Ruby on the cheek, "My tail encourages me to fall for people."
"Fall into people more like.", Ruby smirked, glancing down at their still joined hips.
Blake smirked, she shifted, and Ruby wrapped her legs around her once more.
"Stay, please, just a little longer?" Ruby pled, "I like it here, feels right."
Blake's smirk softened into a smile, she leant in and kissed Ruby once more.
"I love you Ruby." Blake declared.
"I love you too Blake"
