124 "Did I scared you, big boy?"

Pairing: ryoka X Dotsuku

Genre: romance, smut

A/n: Mei - Dotsuku´s child name

It was pretty late when Dotsuku returned home after leaving his daughter on a friend's house for a sleepover but he wasn't really concerned about the time after all that was the first time in a long time that he would be by himself in an empty house.

He now lived with his daughter, who had been with him since he had rescued her and adopted her as his own child, and more recently another warrior had decided to crash into his place after he had helped her from a wild night where she had drunk enough to find a mirror as an adversary while playing checkers.

Niwatori, the Warrior of the Chicken, was said, warrior. With time he ended up getting used to her remarks, even if sometimes it confused him if her teases were simply playful or truly had a hidden flirt within them but as the two of them were never alone in the same house, having his daughter's presence also worked as a certain block for anything between the two warriors to happen.

This had certainly been a good opportunity for the two to settle down and have an adult conversation, just the two of them if only the Chicken wasn't on a mission...

Dotsuku closed the door behind him but his ears caught the scent of something particular that didn't exist before he had left the place.

He walked to the kitchen, following the smell while trying to connect the smell to something and quickly realized it was chocolate he was smelling and true to his guesses, in the middle of the dark room stood a chocolate cake on top of the table. Since when had he gotten cake?

"Ah, Dokku, you're back. Welcome home" Her chirpy voice caught him off guard, not expecting her to be there and surprised to have not seen the warrior in the kitchen's counter eating one slice of the cake.

His vision adjusted to the dark of the room, finally taking the view of the Chicken. She was still wearing her red suit expect the jacket, despite being hungrily devouring the food she didn't seem to have any concern towards her outfit, her matching heels were also still on her feet, even if one of them was just hanging by the tip of her foot as she had her legs crossed one over the other, what caused his eyes to travel along her bare, slender legs and gulping when reaching the short red skirt that seemed even shorter when in that position, and that was when he decided to stop analysing her and just replied "What are you doing here?"

"As in the kitchen? Eating, of course, you're too lousy when I eat on the couch." She replied and grabbed the can that was next to her, only when putting the creams on the cake he realized that it was sweet.

"You know what I meant... Shouldn't you be on a mission? I thought someone had broken in."

"Oh, did I scare you, big boy?" She smirked when his expression changed to a harmless glare, something he always did when she teased him "My mission was easier than I expected and came home earlier, aren't you happy to see me? Where's Mei?"

"At a friend's house." yes, he was happy to see her, yet he would never hurt his pride to admit such. "Where did this cake came from?"

"I am an independent woman. I can buy a cake." Said that the piece she had got shortened as she took a large bite of it, the cream she had earlier put on top ended up getting sticky in the corners of her lips.

Dotsuku sighed and walked closer to her, grabbing a tissue on his way and cleaned the cream from her lips "Independent? You crashed my place and refuse to leave, and you can't even behave like a normal adult..."

Being so focused on cleaning the cream, he didn't notice how Niwatori shifted from her position, her legs untangling themselves and giving a better way to Dotsuku be closer to her "Oh, I can behave. But you'll like me more when I don't."

The statement caused him to look at her, trying to understand if she was flirting with him or just being playful, but like always he did not reach a conclusion. Receiving nothing but silence, she grabbed the cream can and put more on what was left from the cake, ending up getting the same result of white cream at the corners of her lips and Dotsuku repeating the cleaning his tissue, what caused the female to even growl lightly.

"Dokku, I understand you're a little slow and dense with women but seriously, you need to get the hint" She muttered and grabbed his favourite coat, the same one he chooses to use when doing his job as a warrior, and pulled him to her, slamming their lips together without giving any other word.

Despite the initial shock, Dotsuku still was able to feel the sweet provided by Niwatori's lips and the cream that was now spread along them, making the Dog also taste it and even if he wasn't a big fan of sweets, there was something addicting to it.

The tissue was dropped without any care for his hand to be able to be set on the delicate waist of the green-haired woman to pull her closer to his body, making her stay at the edge of the counter as the kiss continued.

With his other hand, Dotsuku set it on Niwatori's cheek and tilted it slightly to get a better access to deepen the kiss. Despite not replying to her teases and letting her assume he didn't know anything about women, Dotsuku had his fair number of experience but as a warrior he never allowed himself to fall deep for anyone or give romance any special attention. Having adopted his daughter was already enough risk and he didn't want to put anyone else in problems, even if that someone was also a warrior. But, in the end, Michio was still a human, a man, and like everybody else he had his needs, having an attractive woman giving remarks of more sexual nature didn't help at all to control his inner beast.

Were two warriors from different zodiacal houses allowed to do such things? There weren't really any rules that forbid it but it would definitely make fights harder to happen.

Was this... Relationship going somewhere besides that one night? Who knew.

Were those thoughts going to stop them? Hell no.

When leaving aside the tiny bit of conscious that was left, when realizing that that night it would probably be the only chance they had from any restrictions, there was nothing to stop them.

Dotsuku's large hands felt the skin of Niwatori's legs, not bothering to hide his intentions and not wasting any time till they reached the upper tights, reaching behind them to hold her, with the help of her part when wrapping her legs around his waist to give more support as he lifted her from the counter, both ignoring the sound of the falling shoe that had escaped her foot.

Without any effort, Dotsuku easily carried the female on his arms to the bedroom they still shared, ever since that Ryoka decided to stay with them she had decided to also take the Dog's room to herself and simply refused to leave, Michio being the proud warrior he was also refused to let her win and so the two ended up sleeping together every night. Settling her on the bed, he didn't waste any time in getting rid of the clothes that hid the pale skin of the warrior of the Chicken, exposing a similar underwear that reminded of her outfit for the Juuni Taisen.

Ryoka laid on the bed, her hand clutching the sheets underneath her while Michio took his time in spreading kisses and licking her skin, almost as a payback for all the teasing she had done, along with removing the few pieces of clothes that were left.

When the woman was fully naked and exposed to him, he sat with his back leaning against the wall behind him, letting Niwatori crawl to him and sit on his lap, giving a long lick on his neck and kissing his cheek, her hands working on removing his clothes, with his help to be able to completely remove them out of the way.

Looking for soft spots, Niwatori found that the dog ears weren't only sensitive to loud sounds but rather saw how the warrior melted when she kissed and gently bit anywhere around the ears, giving more attention to that zone and giving herself a mental reminder of the new information.

Ryoka only stopped toying with the ears when she suddenly found herself once again on her back with Michio on top of her, any sound that was coming out from her mouth being muffled with a deep and passionate kiss from the man while he introduced himself inside her, still hearing a muffled moan inside his mouth and feeling her hands on his back and hair.

One of his hands was on the bed, to keep himself in a position where he could penetrate deeper, and the other was on her leg, spreading it when putting it over his shoulder, his inner beast simply couldn't be controlled anymore and the woman beneath him wasn't complaining of such and so, he just keep thrusting until both were able to get satisfied.

When it all ended, they both panted and were covered in sweat but that didn't stop them to be laying down on the bed, covered only by Dotsuku's coat, with Ryoka's back facing him and his arm around her, sticking her body to his.

"Guess you're not that bad as I thought... Although my fantasies are still better" She teased him and felt a kiss being placed on her neck, before feeling his nose being rubbed against the same spot.

"What you're trying to say is that your fantasies are only any good because I'm there" He fought back, Ryoka turning her head to face him and placing a kiss on his lips.

"Maybe. But don't let that go over your head, Dog."

Dotsuku had always a hard time when it came to letting his daughter go out, as he knew perfectly how bad the world could be, but if he and his partner could have a productive time when the young child was out, he wouldn't mind letting her go on sleepovers more times.
