Devil's Playground CHAPTER 21
Kendecia: Sorry you thought it was short! I didn't mean for it to be! Thanks for reviewing! *gives cookies*
Pushka: I'm glad the ending wasn't too abrupt and Vinkus did get his in the end :3 I'm also positive that Lady and Trish have walked in on Nero in very compromising positions courtesy of Dante and I'm sure at the time he blushed really red and was like 'oh gawd' *hides* XD Thanks for reviewing! *gives cookies*
SirenaLoreley: Vinkus really did get SCREWED XD fluffy fluff is fluffy XD Thanks for reviewing! *gives cookies*
PayingInNaivety: Glad you liked the flower idea, you can thank ninjafox-yoko for that because it was their awesome idea that I borrowed XD I was just going to have them toss him onto level eight and be like 'buh bye!' I don't know Dante likes to play but he always makes sure that his quarry dies in the end, so I think either one of them could be responsible for coming up with the tormenting idea-especially since Nero went though so much because of Vinkus XD Thanks for reviewing! *gives cookies*
Ninjafox-yoko: The flower was genius :3 Vinkus did need a taste of his own medicine! Thanks for reviewing! *gives cookies*
CommanderRatchet57: Here's the epilogue! Hope you like it! Thanks for reviewing! *gives cookies*
-Kor-chan-: They FINALLY made it out XD I think I might miss Vinkus too, he was a douchebag but his…head was in the right place? XD And about Nero's arm-actually it was his human arm that got snapped on, his devil bringer didn't get hurt at all. I like including Trish and Lady in their supporting roles they're girls and no matter how much they kick ass they have to have a softer side! Thanks for reviewing! *gives cookies*
Honeyberries: I thought throwing Vinkus to a tentacle raep demon was the best way to go XD And Dante and Nero covered in blood and injuries is pretty smexy XD Thanks for reviewing! *gives cookies*
Oh Gawd I'm so sorry I took so long! ;_; My muse was put into a coma by the new 'DmC' trailer that isn't DMC and I was so angry and ARG! So I'm really sorry it took so long for just the epilogue! Oh yeah-MATURE WARNING! YAOI! Enjoy!
Dante came back to, feeling like exhaustion had sunk into his bones, and made him unwilling to move from his current position. He supposed six or so hours of nonstop fighting and sex would do that to a person. He opened his eyes and looked around his brightly lit bedroom, it was probably past noon, but even if it was he didn't give a damn. He glanced down when he felt movement against his chest.
Nero was asleep with his head against the older hunter's shoulder, his devil bringer stretched out across his lover's abdomen. Dante's own arm was wrapped around the kid's shoulders, Nero's injured appendage cradled between their bodies.
Nero started to stir, as if feeling eyes on him. The talons of his bringer tickled the older male's side as he clenched his hand. Dante chuckled softly at the feeling, causing the younger slayer to wake further.
"Mn, Dante," he whispered contentedly, shifting to pull his body flush against his partner before wincing. "Ow."
"Careful kid."
"Forgot about my arm." he admitted, moving until he was comfortable again.
"Look on the bright side, Vinkus has got to be feeling worse than us today."
"If he's still alive." Nero mumbled with a slight smirk rolling over carefully to straddle Dante's hips, holding himself up slightly by placing his right hand by the older male's head.
"One can only hope." Dante commented with a grin, running his fingers up Nero's bare back. The younger man closed his eyes and hummed pleasantly, relaxing to the touch.
"Yeah, I'm not going to dwell on it much." he whispered, leaning over to kiss the older slayer's neck and jaw.
"So I guess we get another day off."
"And it only took half a day in hell to get it," his tongue flicked over Dante's jugular. "I know I'm not allowed to go on missions, not sure about you." he teased.
"Well, someone has to keep you company until you're better." he said slyly.
"Oh really? I don't know about that. I think I'd be fine sitting here in my pajamas all day by myself."
"Seems a little boring. You'd have to entertain yourself."
"Mn, so you're going to entertain me, until I feel better?" he asked, nipping the older man's jaw.
"Sure, I'm a nice guy like that. After you're all healed up though, I do believe you owe me for saving your life."
"Oh yes, I do vaguely remember you keeping me from getting my head blown off." he said with a smirk.
"Yep, I'm sure that you can repay me somehow, but for today I'm suppose to be taking care of you." he stated flipping Nero gently onto his back grinding their hips together. Nero arched and lightly groaned.
"Ohh, Dante," he lightly dug his claws into the older male's shoulder.
"And I plan on taking very good care of you." he growled, before kissing the younger man on his luscious pink lips, Nero's hand coming up to tangle gently in Dante's silver locks. He opened his mouth for the older slayer as his tongue flicked across the crease of his lips. The slick muscles caressed and danced like they hadn't kissed in weeks and when they finally pulled away it was only to gasp for breath, a thin strand of saliva connecting them, until Dante spoke.
"So tell me what you want babe." he whispered, a smirk crossing his features as he palmed the growing bulge in the younger man's pants.
Nero pressed his head into the pillow, his breath hitching slightly. His hand ran down the older man's neck and over his back making Dante shiver. His arm glowed a soft blue.
"Well…kid? You gonna answer me?" he whispered, licking the young male's jaw.
"Yes," he breathed. "Take me Dante…please."
"How can I say no when you've asked so nicely…?"
"Don't get a big head, old man." he growled softly.
He chuckled. "Alright, alright, relax Nero." he whispered pulling the smaller male's pants off with ease, leaving the kid naked below him.
Nero shivered as cool air touched his exposed skin, watching with interest as Dante leaned back, ridding himself of his own garments.
The younger male lightly blushed and shifted, wishing that he had the use of his other arm as Dante reached into the bedside table to produce a tube of lube.
The older man smirked as he popped the top off and smeared some of the slick substance on his fingers. Nero took the bottle when he was done and squeezed what was left onto his partner's member, gently rubbing it around the hardened shaft with his hand. He felt two of Dante's fingers slide into him, and arched slightly trying to help the older male find the bundle of nerves inside him. He moaned softly a moment later when his partner did find it and a spark of pleasure flashed through his frame making his vision cloud.
Dante slipped another finger into him as he nudged the sweet spot once again making his lover growl and squirm, closing his eyes. He slid them in and out a few times, making sure the kid was ready before removing them, causing Nero to open his hazy blue hues.
"You ready babe?" Dante smirked.
"Call me by my name damn it." the younger male hissed.
"You mean kid?"
"You're a jackass."
A chuckle. "You know I love you…Nero." he whispered, guiding himself to the younger male's entrance and pushing inside.
Nero all but purred in approval as Dante started an easy pace, their tired bodies protested slightly but neither let it bother him. The younger slayer wrapped his hand around his neglected length stroking in time as his lover slowly increased the rhythm.
Both started moaning as pleasure overtook their senses. Dante quickly swooped down to capture his mate's lips, muffling the sound, knowing that, should Trish or Lady hear them they'd probably be as good as dead. Nero seemed to understand the urgency trying to keep quiet himself, his hips rolling to meet every one of his partner's powerful thrusts.
"Dan-te, oh-fuck. That-nn…so good." he hissed disjointedly, his mind gone in a haze of pleasure as he felt heat gathering, twisting tighter and tighter in his belly.
"Told you I…was going to take care of…you." Dante breathed cockily, his hand covering Nero's devil bringer speeding up his thrusts as well as the tempo of their hands. The younger man arched his back and started to cry out as he came only to have warm lips crash against his own to dampen the sound. He rode out his orgasm before feeling Dante hit his own, filling him with his hot seed.
The two panted as they collapsed next to each other, once again weary from their activities as well as the previous day.
Nero's mind cleared after a few minutes and he slowly laced the fingers of his free hand with Dante's.
"Thanks for coming after me down there." he mumbled.
"I had to save my little damsel."
Nero huffed with a smirk. "If I'm a damsel, does that make you a knight in shining armor?"
"Nah, that's cheesy, I'm the knight with the kick ass red coat…much cooler." he grinned.
The younger male laughed and moved closer to his 'knight' intent on getting a few more hours of shut-eye while he still had the chance.
Two days later…
Nero smiled, flexing his left arm and stretching it across his body, glad that it was no longer in a sling, though Lady has said it was best if he waited a few more days before trying out Red Queen or Blue Rose as the force of the weapons might be great enough to break the still fragile ligaments. The young slayer walked alongside Dante and Lady as they headed back towards the gate that he'd been dragged down a short three days ago.
"Ready to finally close this hellhole and get back to our lives?" Dante asked with a grin.
"Sure thing." the younger male stated.
"How much do you think has managed to crawl out since we just left it open?" Lady asked, shifting Katalina Ann on her shoulder.
"Hopefully nothing, I cleared out everything in there personally aside from Vinkus and that big shadow monster demon."
"Nothing could get out." Nero assented as they arrived in the clearing where the gate sat the portal rippling silently like a black puddle into infinity. The youngest devil hunter summoned Yamato. "So how does this work?"
"Well, it took Rebellion to open the gate, you should just be able to destroy it with Yamato and it'll seal it up for good." Dante grinned, folding his hands behind his head.
Nero paused for a moment, thinking that it sounded too easy before shrugging and drawing a crisp vertical line through the air with the katana. The slice went forward and cut cleanly through the odd cubical rocks the murky portal and across to the other side, the energy disappearing into the trees. The gate made a gurgling sound before shrinking down to but a speck of light before fizzling out entirely, leaving nothing but a grassless circle etched in the ground.
The young man frowned before performing a few more slashes, just to make sure the hell portal could never be reactivated before nodding.
"Looks good kiddo. Let's head home." Dante said, latching his arm around his mate and nearly pulling him off balance as he started dragging him back to the car.
"Hey!" Nero gasped. "You're gonna make me stab you old man!"
"I thought you knew how to handle a sword kid?" he teased.
"At this rate I'll be doing it on purpose." he growled.
Lady turned to start following them when something caught her eye. Three nights ago the tree behind the gate had contained a message engraved to Dante telling him where Nero was…but now the bark was completely unmarked. She walked closer and cast a look around thinking she might have confused it for the wrong tree but she didn't see the message anywhere…how strange…
"You coming Lady!" Dante called out over his shoulder.
The brunette's breath hitched at the sudden noise but she huffed at herself for being so jumpy.
"What's taking you so long!"
"Nothing!" she shouted back, kicking up her pace as she started after them wanting to get out of the clearing.
Yep, that's it!…Really! I don't have plans right now for a sequel (because I'm sure you guys will ask for one :3) I'm just not sure what I'd do yet, but I did leave it open for myself to do so. So, was the tree healed because of Vinkus escaping? Or was it due to some other unforeseeable factor? Oh I'm sorry to leave unanswered questions at the end of a story but it was too good to pass up!
I hope you guys liked this story! I'm thinking about attempting a 100 theme challenge in this section and I'm toying with the idea of naming it 'Ebony and Ivory Queens' what do you think? It would be like Rebellion and Blue Rose Productions, only with the themes and the chapters might not connect as nicely. So I'll leave that for you guys to look forward to :3 Until next time!
Sayonara!
