Note:

I don't normally do a long note like this before my stories but I felt this story called for it.

This story is going to begin about two years before Lucy joins Fairy Tail then quickly get into the cannon part of the story. It is my desire to keep to the cannon story line up until the events of the Eclipse Gate. That being said this is also my take on how things happened off screen. After the Eclipse Gate it will no longer follow cannon. This will be following the Anime because that is what I am more closely familiar with.

This is my take on the idea of Dragon-Slayer mates. The only thing I'm going to tell you about it is that the first time a Dragon-Slayer has sex with someone they become their mate. Everything else that happens because of that you will have to find out right alongside Laxus and Cana.

As we all know Laxus was an ass when Lucy first joins Fairy Tail and I have tried my best to explain this and it becomes a recurring problem for him throughout my story. This is going to play out most in his relationship with Cana and because of that there are some warnings for you.

**** This story will contain Mental, Physical, Emotional abuse. This will also touch on the topic of PTSD and there will be mentions of miscarriage. You have been warned. ****

While there will be smut and lemons in this story that is not my main focus. I will be writing it as I feel it is needed to add to the story but in all honesty they are going to be having a lot of sex and if I focused on that every time it happened then we would never get to any actual plot.

I am really hoping you enjoy my story. This is my first Fairy Tail fic and I'm just getting back into writing after a two year break so I hope this turns out as awesome as I think it will. Reviews are always appreciated, I love to hear from people and try to include others thoughts into my writing.

Please enjoy.

November X782

It was a rainy day in the town of Magnolia. The streets were quiet as was the Fairy Tail guildhall. Normally a very noisy place full of laughter and fighting; today it was a somber place to be. Today was the day that Fairy Tail was mourning the loss of one of its youngest members, fifteen year old Lisanna Strauss. Any guild member that had been reachable had showed up to support the older Strauss siblings and were now drowning their sorrows while sharing fond memories at the guildhall.

Among the mourners was sixteen year old Cana Alberona. While Cana was not known to be close with any of her guild mates it seemed impossible for anyone to have not been close with Lisanna. Today Cana was sitting on her own near the back of the guild as she drank. Cana had only recently got into the habit of drinking and realized she may have overdone it when she attempted to leave and stumbled into Laxus' back.

"Watch were you're going" Laxus snapped but his tone softened when he saw it was Cana. "Where are you going, kid?" Laxus Dreyar had a unique relationship with Cana. Most of the other orphans that his grandfather had taken in did little more than annoy the shit out of him, Cana was different. Maybe it was the fact they both had deadbeat fathers or that she didn't cause the trouble that the other kids did, but he had taken a liking to her. He had tried to look out for her over the years but she didn't make it easy on him.

"I'm going home. This place is such a downer" She was badly slurring her words and could hardly stand. Laxus put an arm around her to help.

"Let me help you. You're likely to get killed if you go off on your own." He sighed and helped her walk back to her apartment in Fairy Hills.

Cana seemed to be getting her feet under her by the time they reached her apartment. She wasn't leaning so much on Laxus anymore, anyways. He opened the door and helped her get into bed. Laxus had planned on just leaving her there to sleep it off but when he went to leave she grabbed onto his arm.

"Don't leave, I don't want to be alone." Cana tried to pull him onto the bed with her.

"I don't think that would be a good idea." He held his ground. Laxus knew what Cana was implying, he had thought of it himself from time to time but he knew better then to act on it. He didn't need to complicate his life by sleeping with another guild member. "I'm sure you would regret it tomorrow."

"I won't, I want you to stay." She got back up and put her arms around his neck. "I want to be with you."

"I think you're too young to understand what you're asking." He put his hands on her hips, keeping her a safe distance away but not completely pushing her off of him either.

"I'm only a few years younger than you. It's not like I'm pure." She reached behind her to untie her top, letting it fall to the floor between them. "I'm not asking for anything more than this. I need comfort, a comfort you can give me."

She could tell from the look on his face that she was starting to wear him down. His hold loosened and she was able to press herself fully against him, wiggling her hips against his. She could feel that he was much more interested in what she was offering then he was letting on. Feeling his hardness against her caused heat to pool low in her abdomen and she could feel herself growing wet. Laxus closed his eyes, his nostrils flared as he took a deep breath, trying to control himself. She could tell that the battle was almost won.

"Just a little taste. We will both feel so much better after." She whispered in his ear while one of her hands stroked him over his pants. With a low growl he pushed her onto the bed, she had won.

Laxus was on her in the blink of an eye, his lips crashing into hers. Cana ran her hands down his back then back up under his shirt, pulling it off over his head. Laxus kissed a trail down her neck and over her collarbone working his way to her breast. Cana arched her back, her chest begging for his attention. He palmed one breast, his mouth hovering just over her other, his breaths fluttering over the sensitive nipple.

"Laxus, please." Cana begged as she wiggled under him. His tongue gave a quick flick over the nub, earning him a gasp from her. When he finally wrapped his lips around the peak she arched off the bed. As his tongue swirled in circles, he mimicked the movement with his fingers on her other breast. He nipped her playfully before switching his attention, hand and mouth trading places.

Cana wiggled herself out of her pants before reaching for his. Laxus grabbed her hands to stop her. He gave her a rough kiss, fully exploring every inch of her mouth. "You do that and I'm not going to be able to hold back." He told her.

"I don't want you to hold back. I want you to fuck me, now." She freed her hands and pushed his pants and boxers down, using her feet to get them fully off. Her hand wrapped around his hardness, stroking him.

Laxus growled deep in his chest. The noise almost didn't sound human to Cana and only excited her more. She had never seen Laxus lose control before but there was a wild look to him now, lightening barely contained in his eyes. It made her feel powerful to affect the man in such a way and it made her ache to feel him inside her.

Laxus flipped her over and raised her up onto her knees, spreading her legs so she was open to him. With no warning he thrust himself fully into her heat. Cana cried out his name at the sudden intrusion. She was more than ready for him but without any foreplay she was tight and he wasn't exactly a small man. He moved at a fast past, thrusting into her hard. He kept her right on the boarder of pleasure and pain that was driving her crazy.

Laxus leaned over Cana and wrapped his arm around her waist, holding her against his chest as he nibbled and sucked a path down her neck. His other hand moved around her hip and between her legs to the spot where their bodies met. His fingers searched around until they found the little bundle of nerves that had her crying out again.

"Fuck, Cana" He gasped against her shoulder as her inner muscles squeezed around him. He brushed his fingers over that same spot and was rewarded with the same wonderful reaction from her body. Cana's climax caught her by surprise, causing her vision to go white for a moment as waves of ecstasy crashed over her. She felt the rumble in Laxus' chest as he gave a few more thrust before he found his own release. She felt a sharp pain at the back of her neck and was mildly aware that Laxus had bit her to keep himself quiet.

Cana collapsed into the bed, eyes closed and panting, trying to catch her breath. Laxus help himself supported over her. His world slowly came back into focus. He first noticed that there was trail of blood on her neck from where he had bit her. I didn't bite her that hard, did I? He thought. His hands came into focus next. His nails had grown into claws and his arms had scales covering them.

"Fuck!" He said as he realized he was exposing his Dragon-Slayer side, something that no one in the guild was supposed to know about, not even his team. He got off the bed and rushed to the bathroom, closing the door. Had Cana seen him? Would she even realize what it meant if she had? Laxus looked at himself in the mirror. His teeth had grown into fangs and there was blood on his lips, Cana's blood.

Laxus jumped when he heard a knock on the door. "Laxus?" Cana asked, she sounded worried.

Fuck, he had just run out on her. She probably thought he was angry or something. He forced his magic under control and watched as his teeth shrank and the scale pattern on his arms faded. He then opened the bathroom door to see Cana standing there with a sheet wrapped around her. She looked vulnerable as she kept her eyes on the floor. "Is something wrong?" She asked him.

He instantly felt protective of her, pulling her into his arms. "I didn't hurt you, did I?"

"Maybe my ego a little. I thought the girl was the one that was supposed to run away after." She smiled up at him. "You're not turning into a girl on me, are you?"

He laughed and kissed the top of her head. "I'm all man." He picked her up and carried her back to the bed. "Ready for round two?" he asked, using his body to press her into the mattress.

Cana knew she should be sedated after their activity, at least for more than the fifteen minutes it had been, but she felt her body come alive at his words. Her chest grew heavy and her core ached to feel him inside it again. "Bring it." She said before pulling him into a kiss.
