I do not own any of the characters of K. They belong to Gora/Gohands.

I apologize for any OOC-ness of the characters. It's just my take on how they might behave in the event of situations such as these arriving.

Rated 'M'


A/N: Part of this Chapter is rated 'M.' I'm marking it off with my usual '**************'

This chapter also takes place probably in the first or second year of Anna and Mikoto's marriage, long before she became pregnant.

Chapter 7: Mikoto is a Bully


No one really considered Mikoto a strange person.

That was because they were too busy being terrified of him.

However, he did do strange things.

And he did it all with a straight face.

Like when he teased his wife.

Yes, Mikoto had a hobby of bullying his poor, pretty wife.


Cheek pinches were a norm.

So was nose tugging and forehead flicking, followed by gentle, almost apologetic kisses. Normally, such actions of the red head toward his wife was in retaliation for something she might have said or done (not eating enough, saying something wasn't true when in fact it was, cuddling with Lion-O instead of him...)

But there were times when Mikoto found himself doing things to Anna, just to see how she would react.

And he would do it on a whim.

Like this early of the morning when they had both awakened simultaneously.

Mikoto was lying on his side, with his head propped on an elbow as he looked down at Anna. She was flat on her back, covered from nose to toe under a white blanket. Mikoto didn't have anything covering him. He had tossed it all on Anna the night before when he had found the sheets becoming too cumbersome for his liking.

Anna was startled awake when the bed began to move roughly. To her surprise, she saw her husband rolling around under the blankets. He furled, unfurled and then tossed it over himself so that it landed on him and completely covered his body. Like a grumpy beast, he huffed, then growled.

Afterward, he caught the end of the blanket and shoved it from off his body.

He paused when he realized that his wife was awake and staring at him inquisitively.

He blinked.

She blinked back.

He responded by suddenly throwing the blanket over her. Before she could even properly react, Mikoto's arms came around her, and he threw one leg over her so that not only was she encased in his unwanted blanket, she was also possessively trapped by his body.

Like a fly in a spider's web.

Unable to do anything about it as he seemed to be drifting off again like a lazy beast, she resigned herself to her fate and prayed that she didn't die of a heat stroke.

Anna blinked at Mikoto's scrutiny. Just why was he looked at her so...probingly?

"Mikoto?"

He didn't respond.

Figuring he was probably mulling over something, she shifted the blanket from off her body. She was planning to go to the kitchen where she would prepare breakfast.

However, Mikoto caught her elbow with his free hand and pulled her back onto the bed beside him. She bounced slightly when she fell and had an uncharacteristically surprised look on her face. She blinked twice more before voicing her husband's name again.

"Mikoto?"

There was a thread of confusion in her voice. Just why had her husband pulled her back down?

She tried to sit up but he reached out and pulled her elbows from under her so she was flat on her back.

She felt herself becoming irked by Mikoto's strange actions.

"What are you doing?" she asked him as her mouth formed into a straight line.

Anna was clearly not pleased by his actions.

He shrugged. "It's too early to get out of bed."

"Ah but-"

Before she could say anything, he used his finger to flick under her nose. She recoiled more from his unexpected action than from pain, for what he had done had not been hurtful.

However, she did cover her nose and look at her husband directly. The narrowing of her eyes was enough to tell Mikoto that she was giving him an accusing look. "What is Mikoto doing?" she demanded.

Her anger changed to surprise when she saw him smirking at her.

So he was laughing at her?!

She lowered her hand and gave him a long, hard look before saying in a very cool voice, "Mikoto is a bully."

He snorted in response which served to irritate her even more. However, she managed a blank facade as she did not want to allow him the luxury of seeing her ire.

For all she knew, the reason why he was acting like this was because he had probably decided on a whim that he wanted to get her angry with him. He was probably bored and wanted some amusement and she was his object of amusement.

That bully.

As she moved to get up again, he pulled her back once more onto the bed. "I'm a bully, am I?" he demanded with that same infuriating smirk.

Anna would not give him the satisfaction of seeing her irritation. Instead, she maintained a cool look and pushed away his arms in order to grab a hold of the blanket. She proceeded to pull it around her in a quick, furious action, like an irked bunny.

She was now lying on her side, wrapped like a caterpillar from chin to toe once more, facing away from her husband.

"Mikoto is mean," she told him, clearly upset and wanting to be left alone.

Mikoto did feel a little respite at her words, but it was so much fun to harass her this morning!

Oh, he didn't even know he was even teasing the poor girl.

To him, he was just prodding at her a bit to see how she would behave.

Angry Anna was pretty funny to him.

But he did instinctively know that he ought to not trouble her any more than this.

He shifted to wrap his arms around her and draw her against his hard, warm body. He nuzzled her temple gently, but even this small act of affection did not deter her anger at him.

Instead, she tried to elbow him away.

She heard Mikoto snort once more.

"Bully," she declared him being again, while looking at him from over her shoulder. Her eyes were accusing once more and he felt as though he had been mean to a small animal.

Chuckling, he drew the blanket from her young, womanly body which was clad in a red nightgown.

"I'm a bully alright," he agreed softly.

'*****************************************************************************************************************************************'

Anna sensed a change in his body heat and saw a flare in his red. Her eyes darted to his and she saw desire in them.

Catching her wrists with his large hands, he pinned them on either side of her head before lowering his mouth to hers to steal a long, deep kiss.

Anna tried to free her hands from his grasp, but he was too strong for her.

She was not about to let him have his way with her after the way he had just bullied her! The unfortunate thing was that her body was so sensitive, so responsive to his touch that instead of rebelling against him, she welcomed him.

She was about to release a pleasured sigh when he began to sweetly caress her body.

However, she stopped herself in time.

She would not allow Mikoto the satisfaction of her losing control with him after the way he had just harassed her!

Instead, she went rigid in his hold and deliberately set her face to being as doll-like as possible.

Noting a change, Mikoto paused and lifted his head.

Normally, her eyes would be glazed with passion, her mouth releasing soft moans and whimpers.

Instead, it was now as expressionless as a mannequin.

Oh?

So she wanted to challenge him?

Mikoto felt a thrill run through him. He normally felt this way when he was engaging in a furious battle with an opponent who could almost evenly match him.

But this time, the enemy was his beautiful wife.

Well, he would win.

Mikoto always won.

He knew all her weak spots.

All the places that were sensitive.

Just a little touch, a little pressure and a little nip and she went wild.

"Don't you want this?" he asked her.

With a completely straight face, she responded, "I want to prepare breakfast,"

He smirked.

"You didn't think about that yesterday morning."

Because yesterday morning, he had even managed to make Anna Kushina scream.

"I'm thinking about it this morning," she calmly responded.

Mikoto snorted as he lowered his head to hers so that his mouth was just a breath away from hers. He lifted one hand and cupped her sensitive breast.

"Really?"

He had to hand it to her; she barely even blinked.

But in the depths of those glowing red eyes, Mikoto saw desire flare in her.

If drawing out those cries from her made him a bully, then Mikoto didn't mind such a label.

After taking in the fact that she was wearing on a low cut, thin strapped red nightdress that fell to the tops of her thighs, he lowered his head to her chest. Deliberately he trailed his tongue downward, and over the exposed slopes of her breasts.

She stiffened and shifted uncomfortably at the feel of his hot, wet appendage on her bare skin. Even if her face hid her reaction, her body didn't.

He could feel her growing hotter.

Like a beast, he caught onto the scent of his mate in heat.

Mikoto's hands reached for her thighs, stroking them with his large hands while he used his teeth to slowly drag one strap of her dress downward.

Anna was trying her best to pretend her husband's touch didn't affect her, but it wasn't possible.

"Are you going to continue acting like a cold fish?" Mikoto demanded above her exposed breast.

She nodded with a blank face on.

He gave a lopsided frown.

"Oh?"

He gave her another wicked smile as he blew his hot breath on the tip of her exposed breast. She sealed her mouth tightly shut to prevent herself from whimpering out loud.

Mikoto chuckled.

"Tell me what you want."

"I want to go downstairs."

"No, you don't," he stated and just brushed his lips against her, deliberately teasing her young, nubile body.

"Don't," she hissed as pleasure shot through her like a white hot arrow.

"Fine," he agreed and started to go from her.

A part of Anna was disappointed.

Another was wary.

Mikoto never became bored with anything related to sex, so why was he withdrawing now?

She cried out abruptly when she felt his fingers caressing the backs of her knees. They had recently realized that in order to turn Anna on completely, one needed to simply brush the backs of her knees. The flesh there was more sensitized and she responded beautifully when Mikoto exploited that area.

Mikoto was kneeling in front of her as his thumbs continued lightly brushing her.

"Do you want me to stop?"

She wanted to shake her head so badly, to tell him 'no.'

"Mikoto is a bully," she declared again and covered the back of her mouth with her hand to prevent herself from moaning again.

But without a doubt, her face was completely red and her eyes were shut from the pleasure she felt as his fingers worked magic on her.

"I better stop then," he stated and drew back from her.

However, her hands grabbed his shoulders. He looked at her.

Her face was naked of emotion as it was flushed red, with eyes glazed over with passion.

"I want you," Anna finally admitted in a husky voice.

Mikoto's eyes gleamed with satisfaction at her response.

'*****************************************************************************************************************************************'


Always, they lost track of time. She was now lying naked beside him. His strong arms were around her soft figure as they both relaxed in the aftermath of their love-making.

Both of them were under the white blanket. She couldn't say if she was still upset with him, but one thing was for certain:

From his nuzzles to his pinches to his tickles, to the way he made love to her, Mikoto was a bully.

But he was her bully.

xNightDreamerx: Thanks :) I thought the PV was interesting! I was glad to see Mikoto and Totsuka in them, even though they may have just been flashbacks. Makes me curious though! Well, July is only a week away. Well, honestly, I think I'm turning into an otaku :/ I've become more and more isolated from the people I used to know. I started to notice things about them that I didn't like, especially when things started to go well with me in my life. A lot of these so-called 'friends' actually showed jealousy, so-called family tried to put me down...so yeah, I have all this time because I choose to spend my evenings writing chapters instead of socializing. I can't say for sure if that's a good thing or not :/ But after God, there's no one who can be here for me, except me. Sorry if I sound all angsty lol.

Guest: I appreciate how much you liked it! Thank you :)

Dazed Blue: Don't worry, somewhere along the way I will post a cute chapter with something like that ;)

MizukiAsami37: I'm sorry to hear that someone did that to you. At least you can understand what it feels like to have someone steal from you. I hope that person was considerate enough to stop, or take down the story.

Thanks again. God bless :)
