Chapter 10
Sephiroth didn't quite understand where he was.
He felt like he should, but at the moment it only felt like he was sleeping. He tried to wake himself up, and occasionally he would catch glimpses of stars. Those glimpses were beautiful, and he wanted to see more.
"Wake up."
Sephiroth opened his eyes, seeing the endless stars he had wanted to see. He lay on air, staring aimlessly at the sky. He took in a deep breath, smelling something sweet. He slowly rose into a sitting position, his eyes never leaving the stars.
"The one before you didn't sleep for so long." Sephiroth looked to the direction of the voice, seeing a bright orb floating amongst the stars. He frowned in confusion, slowly rising to his feet.
"What do you mean?" Sephiroth asked, almost falling back when they zoomed past the stars. Sephiroth could only watch in amazement as they stopped near a certain planet, the solar system around it glowing bright despite the planet's gloominess.
"Your planet is still a child. A delicate thing that your people destroy." Sephiroth felt the shame in his gut, knowing that he had contributed to bringing it to its current state.
"It's brethren are well off I see." Sephiroth watched in awe as his home was suddenly split into four.
"You're planet is rare, with it's many realms. Which is the one you wish to conquer, son of Jenova?" Sephiroth looked to the orb, trying hard to understand. Sephiroth suddenly remembered the blonde hair, the blue eyes, and those lips he could kiss endlessly.
Cloud.
Sephiroth parted his lips, looking into the realms. Cloud's realm was the third chunk of his home, and Sephiroth wished he could be there now.
"I don't want to conquer any of the realms. All I want is to rule by Cloud's side." Sephiroth looked to the orb of light, looking deep into its light and almost able to see all the secrets of the universe inside of it.
"Cloud is all I need to be happy." Sephiroth grunted when he was forced down to his knees, the pressure around him too much to bare.
"I could grant you anything you want, Sephiroth. Why him?" Sephiroth couldn't explain it if he could. All he knew was that when he met Cloud, everything just fit. He felt free; felt he was no longer living in a dream. He had opened his eyes, and had given him everything he had needed.
"Sephiroth, I will cleanse you of Jenova's cells and all things that ail you. In turn you will be given the power to rule the third realm. If you wish not to, I will allow you to join my children amongst the stars." Sephiroth looked to the orb before back to the third realm, knowing without having to think about it.
"Return me to Cloud." Sephiroth felt the pressure rise, felt his body become weightless. Jenova's voice left his mind, and again he slipped back into slumber.
Sephiroth woke up at the sound of a door being closed. He took in a deep breath, slowly moving his limbs. They were a little stiff, but there wasn't any unbearable pain.
He sat up, looking around the room. He was the only one there, but the feeling he had wasn't fear. He felt more at home than any other place in his entire life.
He got out of bed, seeing some clothes nearby. He put them on slowly, surprised when they actually fit. He wore a black skirt like thing, and a black shirt that just covered his chest. Red and silver armor covered his upper body, and a belt wrapped around his waist. He wore black boots that went up to his thigh, a small heel at the bottom.
Sephiroth felt kind of girlish, but when he looked in the human sized mirror by the bed; he looked like a god. He stood up a tad taller, looking into his own eyes. Something flickered in his vision and his eyes were drawn to it. He had a wing that was bird like, and another that was bat like. He suddenly realized his arms were covered in markings, and he had a tail; which was surprisingly cat like.
He didn't have horns, and a part of him kind of wish he did.
He looked to the door when it opened, Cloud standing at the threshold. Their eyes met in an instant, and suddenly all the air left Sephiroth's lungs. For some reason he felt he hadn't seen Cloud in ages, and a part of him wanted to hold him and never let go.
Cloud did that for him.
Sephiroth felt the smaller arms wrap around him, felt the heat he had so badly craved. His arms moved faster than his thoughts, wrapping around the blonde. Cloud gasped when he was picked up, lips hungrily touching his own. Cloud wrapped his arms around Sephiroth's neck, moaning softly into the kiss. Sephiroth held him tighter, pulling away from the kiss to dig his nose into Cloud's neck.
Cloud's feet touched the floor again, the blonde almost overwhelmed by the touches. Sephiroth went down to a knee, his head resting against Cloud's chest. Cloud smiled softly, running his hands through Sephiroth's hair.
"Do you hate me?" Sephiroth asked as he ran a hand over Cloud's stomach, not yet able to feel any differences. Cloud shook his head, pulling Sephiroth's hair back so he would look up.
"My mother is a mind reader. She told me I had wanted the child. I said I didn't, but to be honest it hurt me because it wasn't you who touched me." Sephiroth felt shame run through him, closing his eyes as he yelled at Jenova for hurting his lover. But she was no longer a part of him, and for a second he was angry she couldn't hear him.
"But you're here now." Sephiroth opened his eyes, his hair slipping through Cloud's fingers as he looked to Cloud's stomach. He kissed the fragile flesh, touching a hand to it.
"Will our child be tainted?" Sephiroth asked, Cloud shaking his head with adoring eyes.
"My blood is stronger than hers. My body has already cleaned out its system." Sephiroth sighed softly, getting to his feet. Cloud gasped when he was picked up bridal style.
"I'll take this union as we are married now," Sephiroth told him, Cloud chuckling as he was laid on the bed. Sephiroth ran both hands up Cloud's thighs, the skin smoother somehow.
"Let's start our honeymoon," Sephiroth told him, Cloud smiling up at him. He closed his eyes when Sephiroth ran his hand over his groin, the feeling very much missed. Sephiroth undressed Cloud smoothly before taking off his own clothing and armor. Cloud looked up at Sephiroth in all of his beauty, reaching a hand up and touching a folded wing. The skin like texture of his second wing was very different from his bird like wing. Cloud couldn't help but smile when Sephiroth extended them, showing them off.
"Tell me my Queen," Sephiroth started in a teasing tone, earning himself a light smack on his ass.
"Will you be mine till the end of time?' Sephiroth asked, drowning in his melodramatic feelings. Cloud smiled wide, rising up and kissing Sephiroth's lips. A bit of tongue was included, both tastes fairly missed. Cloud pulled away, his smile suddenly gone.
"When our child becomes of age, it has to kill me to take the throne. I'm the youngest demon lord, what will happen if our child tries at a younger age?" Sephiroth grabbed Cloud's chin, lifting his eyes. Cloud took in a deep breath as they kissed, Sephiroth kissing away all of his fears.
"Then I'll make sure to beat the crap out of them if they try." Cloud grinned, kissing Sephiroth's lips again.
"On the bright side, if it's a girl, we have to try again to get a boy. All future demon lords are intersex, but if they have a female appearance they are considered girls and vice versa. The girl's become the angel of death, though I don't really know why." Sephiroth chuckled, hoping now it was a girl inside of Cloud.
"When do you plan on starting the honeymoon?" Cloud whispered, Sephiroth chuckling as he lifted Cloud's legs so they rested on his shoulders. Cloud wasn't really that hard, but when he felt heat against his ass he became hard in seconds.
"You don't like foreplay do you?" Cloud asked in short breaths, more aroused than he had ever been in his entire life. Sephiroth pushed in hard, Cloud moaning out in pleasurable pain. Cloud loved the pain, but it was better because it was Sephiroth who was delivering this pain.
Sephiroth grit his teeth at the heat that surrounded him, his member pulsing. He dug his hands into the sheets, trying hard to kick away his premature orgasm. Cloud slowly relaxed around him, and when Sephiroth felt like he wasn't going to cum he pulled out a little before pushing back in.
"Seph…" Sephiroth looked down to Cloud, tearing the sheets with his claws. Cloud's cheeks were red, the blush having spread to his chest. His lips were slightly chapped, his hands above his head and gripping the sheets in anticipation. His entire body was meant to seduce, and Sephiroth was thoroughly seduced.
Sephiroth pulled out before thrusting back in, Cloud moaning softly. Sephiroth didn't stop, thrusting hard and fast. Cloud moaned with each thrust, the bed not moving much.
"Harder," Cloud whispered in a moan, Sephiroth slowing his thrusts. He wondered if he had demon power in this aspect. He thrust hard, the bedframe hitting the wall. Cloud practically screamed. Sephiroth was shocked for a second, the blonde gasping for breath as his thighs shook.
"Oh yeah," Cloud moaned, loving this new part of Sephiroth. Sephiroth gasped when he was pulled down into a kiss, thrusting how Cloud liked it. He used the same amount of power, Cloud pulling away from the kiss to scream. A little laugh left his lips, his hands moving to Sephiroth's thighs. Sephiroth moved his hands so they were beside Cloud's head.
"Is this as hard as you can thrust?" Cloud asked on an aroused high. Every thrust was hitting his prostate brutally and he wanted to know if he could be more brutal. Sephiroth wondered himself, thrusting again. He thought he hurt Cloud for how loud he screamed, Cloud shaking under him as he laughed softly.
"Like that, fuck me like that!" Cloud exclaimed, Sephiroth wondering if it was good for the baby. Technically Cloud wasn't fully pregnant yet, but Sephiroth testing his strength probably wasn't the best idea.
"Seph?" Sephiroth's eyes focused on Cloud, the blonde frowning up at him.
"Did I say stop?" For a long while, screams and the headboard crashing against the wall were heard. When Cloud was finally satisfied, Sephiroth felt dead again. He laid there panting, trying to breath after being destroyed.
Cloud was up, getting dressed. He had a noticeable limp, which made Sephiroth wonder how strong Cloud's natural body was. He put in enough power to make a normal person be bedridden for a couple days.
"Get up and get cleaned up. We have to meet the council in an hour." Sephiroth groaned, sitting up and heading over to the bath Cloud had occupied only minutes before. He took a quick bath before putting on his clothes. They left the room, Sephiroth looking around in wonder at everything.
Cloud seemed happy, his limp not as visible now. They passed by a couple slaves, the girl's faces becoming beet red when they saw Sephiroth. Sephiroth raised an eyebrow as they scurried away.
"Cloud is your room sound proofed?" Sephiroth asked, Cloud shaking his head.
"The entire Underworld probably heard." Sephiroth wanted to be mortified, but a part of him felt smug. He was the only one that could do that to Cloud. He followed Cloud into a large room, silver seats in a circle around the room.
Two large thrones were at the front of the circle, a blonde haired woman standing by one of the thrones. Cloud lead Sephiroth to his throne, sitting him down before sitting in the one by the blonde woman.
"Sephiroth, this is my mother." Sephiroth wasn't sure how to address her, but it didn't stay awkward for long.
"You may call me April. How was your trip here? You sounded very busy this morning." Sephiroth parted his lips, not entirely sure what to say. He closed his mouth, tightening his features.
"Your son has made my trip very adventurous." Sephiroth looked to a few slaves by the door when one giggled, her eyes going wide once she realized the noise escaped. She bowed, leaving the room. Cloud's mother smiled.
"I'm glad. I had thought he had lost his manners." Sephiroth smirked, Cloud rolling his eyes.
"Welcome to the family Sephiroth. May there be many years ahead of you," April praised, bowing slightly in his presence. Sephiroth looked to Cloud, his eyes shifting to the fire covered walls.
The place was still kind of creepy, but Sephiroth was glad to be part of the family.
