I stood in the bedroom of our spacious house, looking at my reflection in the mirror inquisitively. My body was bare, except for some rather tight boxer shorts. I was currently admiring the wounds on my back, tracing each one with my fingers, gritting my teeth as I did so. Long claw marks were scattered over the surface of the skin, marring it red, some were shallow and others were deep, although all them were sore.

They were the by-product of a rather… intense night with my two wives. Akagi, the source of most the scratches, stood from the bed, wearing nought but her red silk nightgown, parted to reveal her sculpted form and perfect skin. She runs a finger up one of the deeper scratches and I gasp at the slight pain.

"While I do typically enjoy marking you as my territory, I must admit this was too far, I apologise deeply Shikikan. It does truly look painful… Although… I confess, I thoroughly enjoyed it" I recall our time together, I had barely felt the wounds at the time, and even as sore as I was now, I certainly enjoyed it too and I could tell she truly was sorry about causing such damage.

Oddly enough though, not all the scratches were from my dark-haired wife, and in fact, one of my most painful reminders of last night was dealt by my other wife, Kaga.

I turn my neck to see the deep vulpine bite she had inflicted during a particularly energetic bout, it was still red sore, although it was at the very least no longer bleeding.

Akagi moves her hand upwards to my neck, brushing my hair out of the way, allowing her to inspect the wound. "Hmm, it would appear my dear sister was trying a bit too hard to also mark you as her mate"

Akagi turns her head and calls to Kaga, who is currently hiding in the bedsheets, her eyes and ears peeking out in embarrassment. She had remained there for the entire morning, barely saying a word. "Truly, dear sister, I know that our husband has a preference for our teeth, but you should be far gentler, like this…"

She flicks her hair behind her ear with one graceful movement before returning to my neck, body pressing into my back, her mouth hovering over Kaga's bite mark as her hands caress my sides.

She plants her lips firmly on the skin, her saliva coating it as the warmth of her mouth envelopes the wound. She starts teasing the already sore skin, pulling at small patches gently with her teeth.

It hurts, though not much, but also, it feels so… intimate. Akagi's eyes focus on mine in the reflection, her eyes full of lust.

I let out a mewl as her hands begin to wander my body, passing over my crotch and giving a deliberate squeeze, and I have to steady myself by placing my arms on the mirror.

She quickly stops her biting, darting out her tongue, and starts moving her head rhythmically, lapping at the wound like an animal. The sensation is incredible and actually feels soothing on my wounds.

She moves around my neck, her tongue lapping as she goes, moving on to my back and the scratches that she herself made. I can't help but gasp as she focuses on a particularly deep scratch by my shoulder blade, running her tongue up and down it's grooves, cleaning it. As I gasp, she gently strokes the sensitive head of my manhood through the fabric of my boxers, attempting to distract me from the stinging of my wounds.

Unfortunately, it still hurts, but I bear it, the pleasure of being cared for by my wife in such an intimate manner slowly overriding the pain that I feel. A moan escapes through my gritted teeth again "Ahh… Akagi…. wow…"

She seems to increase her pace after hearing me moan her name, caring for my wounds with renewed vigour, her wet tongue seeming to dig even deeper into the cuts as her hand delves into my boxers, stroking and squeezing my manhood directly. Never enough to fully stimulate me, but just enough to take my mind off the pain. I silently offer up a prayer of thanks for having a wife so skilled in these kinds of acts.

We stay like that for at least 5 minutes, until I'm close to collapsing, my arms shaking, struggling to support me as my wife works away at my body, pleasure assailing me. Akagi gives me one final lick, then gives my back a short kiss before standing back, admiring her handiwork.

I can see her reflection lewdly suckling at the hand that had been placed down my boxers, tasting myself on her fingers before offering up a seductive wink as she notices me watching, her tails moving excitedly around her.

I breathe heavily, attempting to slow my beating heart for a few seconds, my arousal slowly waning.

I turn around, giving her a hug "Thank you, that was… incredible" Unfortunately, the soreness was already returning, but alas, Akagi's tongue was not prescribed medicine, not to mention, more than likely unsanitary. I would have to pick up some healing balm on my way back from work.

But it was the thought that counted, and it warmed my heart. Besides, I had found the whole process incredibly stimulating and Akagi seemed to enjoy releasing her more animalistic side.

"The least I could do, dear husband. But I still must ask, are you sure it is ok? I honestly do feel dreadful for the both of us hurting you so." Her eyes return full of genuine sorrow and worry, and it does truly touch me.

She stops, a switch suddenly flipped in her head as her eyes fill with purpose. "Ah, yes, I know. An eye for an eye seems fair, yes?" Before I can respond she leaps from the bed and is rummaging in the closet

"We marred your skin, so in return, as punishment, you can mark ours…" She pauses before she progresses into muttering "now…. I know I have some rope and a whip somewhere in here…"

Kaga makes a muffled squeal of terror from under the duvet at the word 'whip', not being even half as adventurous as her sister when it came to certain… acts. I quickly dash to Akagi's side, pulling her away from what she charmingly called her 'Pleasure-box'.

"There is absolutely no need, trust me, I enjoyed last night just as much as you hopefully did. Please, it was worth a little a bit of soreness this morning" Her face drops slightly, clearly disappointed that her plan for some more… extreme… play, had been shot down, but quickly brightens to a smile.

"Very well, if that is your wish. I am glad you enjoyed it, remember, there is always more where it came from~" she bites her lip seductively. Was there ever a moment when Akagi wasn't horny? Actually, that was a silly question, of course the answer was no, she was practically insatiable.

I quickly dress while Akagi simply waits and watches me, clearly intending to relax in her nightgown all day, and we begin to leave the bedroom as Akagi turns to her sister, still just peeking out of the bed.

"Dear sister? Are you not coming for breakfast?" A muffled voice replies "I…. No…. No, I need some more rest…. I'm still a bit…." Her voice retreats to a whisper "…sore"

I can see the bright blush on her face from here, even as she hides under the bed covers, her ears practically steaming. For Akagi's part, she erupts into laughter at her sister.

"See, I told you it would be a good time, did I not? I take it your wish from last night was granted? Having trouble standing up straight by chance?"

Kaga lets out another uncharacteristic squeal of embarrassment and delves into the covers, hiding fully from view. It takes me a few seconds to realise what Akagi was referencing, my cheeks starting to glow at the memory of a few of the choice phrases the fair-haired fox had yelled at me in her passion.

Akagi leads me into the main room as she heads straight for the open kitchen, fixing us some hot drinks and some morning toast. I try and focus my mind on the present, rather than the rather eventful past few hours.

We sit down on the sofa in the main room for a change, taking in the view through the large glass window, the morning ocean shimmering beautifully. Akagi looks at me seriously "Are you sure you do not need me to come with you?"

I shake my head "it will be fine. She is a ship under my command, after all, she won't do anything too outrageous."

Akagi scoffs "I would not be so sure of yourself, that vixen is obsessed with you, although…"

She saddles closer, curling into the crook of my arm, her tails placing themselves around me "…I suppose I cannot blame her on that regard, you are certainly worth obsessing over" I smile at the compliment.

"Of course, though, If I hear of any impropriety on either your behalf or hers, I do hope you know that, first of all, my feelings would be deeply hurt, and second of all, I would seriously consider castrating you" She smiles maliciously at me. I shudder internally, I think she is joking, but it's honestly hard to be sure.

Her wrath would certainly still be great, if such a thing was to happen, that much is true. Although, if I'm honest, I think her sadness would hurt me far more than her anger.

I give her a kiss, our lips quickly touching one another, quickly melding to its partner's form, each very familiar with the other by now, and our tongues have a short but sweet duel until I quickly pull back.

I start fondling her soft ear, and she closes her eyes, nuzzling her head closer to my hand, clearly requesting more. "I promise, absolutely nothing of the sort will happen. I will make sure of it."

She opens her eyes slightly, still tamed by the pleasure of having her ears stroked. "Hmph… very well. Although I do hope my annoyance at that slut being your secretary has been noted?"

I kiss her forehead "It has" she makes another *hmph* before presenting her other ear for affection, and I quickly oblige, enjoying the feeling of stroking the fluffy appendage as much as she does.


As I approach the door to my office, a feeling of dread starts to wash over me. I had not really chosen Taihou to be secretary, it was more forced upon me, her being one of the few Sakura Empire ships yet to complete the duty.

She had already been my secretary for 4 days, and so far, it had gone as smoothly as could be expected. She did actually keep up with the work fairly well. When she was not fretting over me, ogling me or attempting to manufacture situations to showcase her body, or strip me or her entirely.

I steel myself and open the door. My eyes immediately widen as I find her running through my collection of pencils and pens, licking the length of each one thoroughly before inserting them into her mouth. The action actually reminded me of a certain morning activity with my wife, and flusters me slightly. Especially when Taihou is craning her neck and lapping at them so lewdly, practically forcing them down her throat.

Admittedly, it was not the most embarrassing or strangest thing I had walked in on during my time as Commander, but it was certainly up there. I cough deliberately, announcing my presence.

She immediately stops what she is doing and turns towards me with a smile on her face, if she's embarrassed to be caught, she doesn't show it.

"Ah, Commander, I was just… inspecting the office equipment. My scent on them will help keep other, less savoury types away."

Her grin widens as she approaches me, but as she draws near suddenly becomes one of anger as she sniffs the air. "Why, my Shikikan, you absolutely reek of fox, how dreadful." She turns her nose up, a look of disgust clear on her face.

She then moves around behind me sniffing my back "and is that her saliva I smell? What horrific things has that mongrel put you through? Has she been washing you with her sinful tongue? What a traumatic experience for my poor Shikikan."

She pauses, then takes my hand, practically dragging me down the hallway "You need a shower, immediately, come, I shall join you and make sure to scrub you clean, do not fret, we will get that grotesque smell off you yet."

I try to protest, but Taihou was having none of it and she continued dragging me along, her strength as a Kansen far greater than my mere human body's.

She eventually turns a corner and pushes me into one of the public shower blocks.

There are a handful of ship-girls already in there, although they quickly shriek and flee when they see Taihou's face with me in tow. Her eyes turn from anger quickly to lust and wanting as she eyes me up, blocking my escape.

She bites her lower lip sensually as her hands descend to her sash as she slowly undoes it, letting her traditional dress slip from her shoulders, keeping eye contact with me the entire time as it flutters to the wet floor where it quickly becomes soaked, although she does not seem to care.

She stands tall now, in merely her beautifully crafted lingerie, a dark red bra, with black accenting and delicate flower patterns overlayed into it, the poor brassiere struggling to contain the enormity of Taihou's bosom.

My eyes on instinct descend lower to her similarly styled panties a slightly damp patch on their front, a hint of where her true intentions lie.

They are attached to some stockings and a garter belt contrasting beautifully against her pale skin and causing her thighs to bulge slightly around them. She brings a finger to her mouth, sticking her tongue out and suckling the appendage slightly.

The sight is highly erotic, and while I try my best to resist, my body's urges are overpowering my mind, and I quickly become aroused, while my cheeks heat up.

My body wants nothing more than to caress her body, feel those curves in my hands and replace that dangerous look on her face with one of indescribable pleasure, calling my name from those plump lips.

Taihou notices this, and eyes slide towards my crotch, where a noticeable bulge has formed. "Ah, my Shikikan, so you finally recognize my beauty yes?"

"Well, we're here for a shower, but I suppose some fun beforehand can be forgiven." She acts as if she had not intended this from the very beginning, then leaps at me, forcing me onto my back, the cold water on the floor soaking into my Commanders uniform, although my mind is too far gone to care.

Taihou straddles my crotch and I let out a lusty moan, bucking slightly, the fact that only a few layers of fabric separate our privates incensing me.

"My, my, needy are you not, my Shikikan, do your wives not cater to your needs as much you would like? No matter, Taihou is here now, and long has she waited for this moment, for your pitiful wives to be gone and for you to recognize Taihou's true beauty, do not fret, Taihou will make this memorable~"

Her hands start to ascend to her brassiere, struggling with the clasp, trying let her large assets free. At the mention of my wives, my mind starts to clear as I fight back against the lust that wants, no, needs, to see those huge breasts unsheathed.

I claw back control slowly, inch by inch, my guilt at the situation driving my point home, this is wrong, I promised Akagi.

I promised her I would make sure nothing happened. I was so sure of it at the time, but Taihou was just so forceful, so strong and while I regretted it, I found her deeply attractive.

But no, I promised my wife, I had to put a stop to this, but how?

Taihou had me pinned, and even if I voiced my opposition, she was too far gone now, she would certainly continue to pin me down and have her way with me out of sheer spite.

I had an idea, but it was risky and could lead to many problems for me later, but I had to prioritize being faithful to my wives. To keep my promise to Akagi.

Taihou was still struggling with the clasp, due to it being drawn incredibly tight under the weight of her assets.

"No, no, me first" I encourage her to take my shirt off first. She licks her lips as she studies me, "Hmm, as you wish, my Shikikan" Her hands descend to me as she unceremoniously rips my shirt off and she starts caressing my chest. Her hands slip around my back, until what I was waiting for finally happens, her eyes lose their lust, replaced with curiosity as she feels the wounds on my back and I wince in pain as she explores them.

"My Shikikan? What is this?" She quickly pulls me up so I am sitting up, and manoeuvres herself around so she is looking at my back. The second she lays eyes on it she gasps in horror.

"My Shikikan, how… how could this happen?" Her voice quickly becomes strained in sadness and I start to feel guilty. While she is eccentric, she does deeply care for me in her own way, and seeing my wounds hurts her greatly.

"I thought I had accounted for everything? Impossible, have you sortied and been attacked? No, I keep track of your schedule. An accident? But I analyse every threat you face, keep watch whenever I can, oh my poor Shikikan..."

Her voice quickly becomes one of furious rage as her fingers trace upwards towards my neck and she finds Kaga's bite. "Oh, I see… IT WAS THOSE SKANKS! THOSE MANIPULATIVE SLUTS! …They stole you from me, they trained you to love them, then they abuse you, take advantage of you, using you as their personal scratching post and sex slave, MY SHIKIKAN!"

She quickly stands, her face one of complete bloodlust "Do not fear, my Shikikan, I will deal with them, you will never have to face them again, for… I SHALL BURN THEM TO ASHES, AND THEIR SCREAMS SHALL BRING YOU THE COMFORT YOU DESERVE!"

Before I can even utter a single rebuttal, she has dashed out of the shower room, the fact that she is wearing nothing but her expensive lingerie not bothering her in the slightest.

Oh dear, I was afraid her reaction might be this extreme, but it was the only way to distract her and get her off me.

I quickly follow after her, forgetting my shirt in my hurry to get to her before any damage can be done.


Unfortunately, Taihou is significantly faster than me and by the time I reach my house, I can see two figures squaring off at one another, planes buzzing around each of them like hornets.

It would appear a few bombs had already been slung, as there are craters scattered about the landscape as I approach, and I see that both Taihou and Akagi have some minor damage and scratches.

The image is almost surreal, two beautiful women, fighting one another, one dressed in nothing but her dark red underwear and the other in just a silk nightgown, gusts of wind opening it on occasion, showcasing her lack of undergarments.

Akagi's expression is similar to Taihou's, unholy fury might be the only apt description.

Her eyes practically glow red, aflame with hatred. They seem to have stopped fighting for now, and were just slinging insults back and forth. "MONGREL SLUT!" Taihou yells, "OVERSTUFFED PIGEON!" Akagi growls.

I quickly attempt to calculate what would be the best move. Standing by my wife's side, or Taihou's. I decide that to try and end this as calmly as possible, I need to appear neutral, so run between the two of them, yelling at them to stop.

They both stare at me, the hatred slowly dissipating from their eyes, Taihou simply looks confused, but Akagi… Akagi's face is one sadness, accusation and betrayal, it's enough to punch me in the gut, and make me feel terrible.

She speaks to me, her voice barely a whisper "Husband… is it true, what this wench states? She was to make love to you?" Tears begin to form in her eyes, the very thought that it could be true difficult to bear.

"That's not the full stor…" I begin to reply before a flash of anger crosses her eyes and she ready's an ethereal plane-like projectile in her hand, aimed at me. "Answer. The. Question."

Anger seeps into her voice. I had really gone and done it now…

Akagi's ears could separate what was a lie and what was the truth. So, in theory, she already knew that it was technically true from Taihou, but she was hoping beyond hope for a different answer from me.

Unfortunately, whatever Taihou had told her was far from the full picture, if I could explain that to her, she would know I was telling the truth.

That I had wanted to be faithful, that I had manipulated Taihou into letting me go. But unfortunately, she was not in a state of mind to hear explanations, she simply wanted answers.

I take a deep breath and look her straight in the eye "Yes, but…"

She closes her eyes in pain, tears leaking down her face as her ears flatten against her head as her hand flicks towards me releasing the bright red projectile. I close my eyes and brace for the impact…

…but it never comes, and I hear an explosion near to the left of me. She hadn't aimed for me, just near me.

I look back at towards the brunette fox, her face was now a mixture of sadness and anger, all mixed into one and she continues sobbing, but her eyes still hold a deep fury. "And… you never, not once…. tried to stop her!?" she pauses gritting her teeth in rage "You promised!"

Ok this, this was something that might work, from my perspective that wasn't a lie, I had, just by manipulation, rather than physically.

I prayed that Akagi's sensitive ears would be able to pick up the truth as I again looked straight into her tear-stained eyes "I did, I tried to stop her, in fact, I succeeded"

Her face turns to one of confusion, and I breathe a quick sigh of relief, clearly, she had realised that was indeed the truth but was now confused as to why, when Taihou had said I hadn't resisted, she had also read that as truth.

I put my arms up in a peaceful gesture "Akagi…. I can explain, please, I did stop her, but you have to trust me, please let me explain first" She seems to process this information for a bit, then nods slowly, seeming to forget her quarrel with me for now, but quickly turns her rage to Taihou

"But this overweight bird still tried to lay hands on you, MY HUSBAND! that's something that as your wife, I cannot abide without my consent!"

She ready's multiple projectiles in her hand, fully prepared to bomb Taihou into the ground. Taihou snarls as her rigging fans around her, preparing her own strike.

"Akagi, please trust me! She just cares for me, just like you do. Do you remember, the old you? Don't hold it against her please, I can talk her down." Akagi seems to struggle, clearly wanting to run Taihou into the ground for her transgressions, but eventually her eyes clear as she decides to trust me, and dissipates her rigging and stands down. She still looks confused and sad, but at last, the tears have stopped.

I turn to Taihou who had been watching this whole display with confusion and anger, her rigging and stance still aggressive.

"I…. don't understand my Shikikan?"

"Taihou, listen to me carefully, please, can I ask that of you? The wounds on my back, yes, they are from my wives, but I gladly accepted them. Just as I gladly took them as my wives, they make me happy. Akagi makes me happy, I'm not under any spell, any duress. I love them. Just as you love me. Do you understand?"

She struggles with this for a while, until finally, she dissipates her rigging as her stance softens "I… think so…." she pauses, tears brimming in her eyes as she looks at me imploringly "does that mean that…. You do not love me as I love you?"

Her expression makes me feel incredibly guilty, but I have to tell her. "I… I don't think so, sorry…"

Tears start to roll down her face at my answer, realising that I'm telling the truth "I… I see, Apologies for the misunderstanding…I should have taken your feelings and your perspective into account"

She pauses again, a renewed energy slowly entering her eyes. "But… you understand that this does not mean I will stop vying for your affection, my Shikikan?"

I nod in understanding, knowing that the heart cannot change want it wants so easily.

"Very well", her gaze is downcast and glum, but with a sprinkle of hope as she turns and leaves.

Akagi approaches me, taking me by the hand and pulling towards the front door "Inside, now!" She orders me in, clearly still annoyed with me and wanting some answers, so I obediently follow her.

We sit down on opposite sofas after grabbing a glass of water each, and she looks at me expectantly, waiting for me to start, her tails thrashing around her, a hint of anger still blazing away in her ruby eyes.

I start from the beginning, recounting how Taihou had dragged me to the bathroom due to the fox scent on me, how she had pinned me to the floor, and my rather dangerous way of escape which led to the incident outside.

By the end she looks much better, almost smiling as I describe my escapades with Taihou. But there's something not quite right, she's not sad, but she's not smiling fully either.

I finish the story and she tilts her head inquisitively at me, opening her mouth uttering two words "I see…"

Is that it? After all that, that is all she has to say? Her eyes bore into mine, again, I cannot place the emotion, she's no longer crying, she's no longer upset. But there's something behind her eyes. Could it be? Is she worried?

She then looks down at the floor, her hair tumbling downwards as her ears flatten against her scalp. "I can tell you are telling the truth; however, I can also tell that you are avoiding one, dancing around it, what would you hide from me, dear husband?"

I decide to confess, nothing good will come of refusing to tell her "When Taihou started to pin me down… I… I enjoyed it, I… found her rather attractive… I'm so sorry, I can only beg for your mercy" I bow my head, submitting myself to her wrath remembering her promise to castrate me this very morning.

At that, Akagi does absolutely the last thing I expected her to do. She laughs.

She laughs and laughs, stopping to wipe her eyes and look at me, before bursting into laughter again. She tries desperately to steady herself. "That's what you were hiding from me? That you found her attractive, while she stood there, domineering you in her underwear? And the fact that you were aroused by it?" I nod slowly, a blush rising up face, unsure why I'm being mocked.

"I thought it was something serious. Dear me Shikikan, truly, do not hold your wife in suspense so, I thought it was something much more serious. You're but a man, of course, you would find the sight erotic. Even I find myself getting hot under the collar at the thought, and I do not even like her"

I try to comprehend Akagi's logic but fail. "Sorry, I'm still confused. Are you not angry that I lusted after another woman's body, that I wished to pleasure myself with her? And not you?"

She looks at me, her eyes turning serious "I would prefer you lust after my own perfect body of course. But I'm not overly bothered, no, it's perfectly natural. What is important to me is that you promised me that you would not go through with it, and you didn't. You upheld your promise to me, and you were therefore faithful to your wives, using a rather ingenious way to get out of your predicament I might add. Although… Kaga may feel differently, but that's another issue…"

She continues "But I myself do not mind. Unless, of course, you actually have feelings for her? Rather than just a sexual attraction? Because then, dear husband, we shall be having serious words" Her eyes narrow and anger flashes across her face again as her tails still their energetic wagging as her eyes drill into me in warning.

I shake my head quickly "I feel sorry for her, and the fact that she cares for me so deeply does touch me. But I do not love her, not even close to the way that I care for you or your sister."

She nods, happy with my answer, knowing that I am telling the truth "despite myself, I do feel somewhat sorry for the poor lovesick bird. I'm not heartless, and I have said in the past, I can certainly see why she would lust over you."

She seems to mull something over in her head for a second before a sly grin covers her face.

"Perhaps I will invite her around one night so she can partake in you with me as recompense, as long as she doesn't get too attached of course. Truly, am I, not a generous, sharing friend, and a beautiful loving wife?" She grins even more as she showers herself in compliments.

I think the fact that I'm not even surprised that Akagi suggests a threesome to pity the rejected ship girl shows how acclimated to Akagi's extravagant sexual tastes I have truly become. Although I would be lying if I didn't find the mental picture somewhat tempting, it was something to think about another day.

I breathe a sigh of relief, glad that was over, and that I seemed to be out of hot water.

Akagi moves onto my sofa, sitting on my lap as I lay back and she presses her body into mine, her eyes still serious. "What is ultimately important, Shikikan, is that you remember me and Kaga are your wives, your beloveds. You have pledged an oath to love us, and only us till death. Should you break that oath, or any promise to me or my sister, you shall hath hell to pay."

Speaking of her sister, I ask her where exactly Kaga is. "Still in bed, gone back to sleep, you… did rather a number on her, I'm somewhat jealous. But, Shikikan…" She pauses, giving me a peck on the cheek and whispering in my ear

"I would suggest you not mention the fact that your manhood has lusted after other women to my sister, she is not as…" she searches for the word "adventurous…" she bites my earlobe gently before continuing "…as me, understand? She values your attention deeply. I fear that she would do far worse than this to you" She traces the bite wound on my neck with her finger.

"Let me explain, I know how best to appease her. You sit here and do not say a word, or she will eat you alive."

She starts to get up "I shall wake her now, and you should pray that she is still in a good mood from last night" I sit nervously and obediently await my other wife's reaction as I was told.

After about 15 minutes both sisters exit the bedroom, Kaga's expression is unreadable as she approaches me.

She joins me on the sofa in silence, until eventually, she dives at me, planting firm kisses along my neck and I gasp in surprise, the sudden affection taking me completely off-guard. My confusion is quickly replaced as my arousal quickly builds, having been teased so many times today that I just wish for some relief.

Her lips soon move to the area she had wounded last night. She starts teasing it with her teeth, just like Akagi had done this morning, and I begin to repeatedly mewl desperately, at the end of my tether.

Then, all of a sudden, her hands forcefully hold me down as her gentle nibbling turns into a full-on painful fox bite, right on top of the existing one.

I yowl in pain, my arousal immediately disappearing. My body instinctively tries to recoil from Kaga, but she continues to hold me in place, her strength far greater than mine.

I feel the skin break as she draws blood and my eyes start to water in pain. This was significantly worse than last night. At that time, it had been on instinct, and she had recoiled immediately as soon as she realised she was hurting me.

But not this time, for that was the entire point, I had gathered already that this was some form of punishment. I try and still my struggling body, submitting to her and whatever punishment she deems fit for me.

Eventually, she pulls her face back, teeth tinged with blood, an angry fire behind her eyes, her hands still holding me down. "That, dear husband, was for daring to lust after another woman except me or my sister without consent. How dare you let your eyes wander, especially after last night, was I not good enough for you? After all that? Was my body not adequate for your needs? Was my affection too little?" Her face morphs into one of hurt as she chastises me.

She finally releases me, and my hands immediately go to my neck automatically tracing the deep wound. It was bleeding, but not excessively, she could have easily ripped the tendons out if she so wished.

"You understand that you deserved that, yes?" The anger and sadness have vanished from her face, replaced with a neutral expression. Her ears swivel towards me, ready to tell if I am lying, I quickly relent.

"Yes, I did, and I'm truly sorry. You… were brilliant last night, I can only beg your forgiveness…" she nods, a slight smile returning to her lips as she knows that I speak the truth.

The carrier then motions to Akagi, who had been watching the entire thing, amusement on her face. Her brown-haired sister produces a towel and a wooden bowl of hot water she had procured ready. Clearly, they had planned this, I can only assume that Akagi had convinced Kaga to simply punish me, rather than make a fuss over it.

Kaga takes the towel and warm water, dabbing the towel into the steaming bowl before motioning for me to remove my hands from my neck. I oblige and she peers at the wound she has just inflicted on me, tracing it with her finger, blood dripping onto it. Concern and worry start to enter her expression as she starts to apologise.

"I… did not quite expect it to be this deep… or bloody. I'm… sorry, are you ok? It's not too painful is it?" A blush rises from her neck slowly in embarrassment that she has hurt her husband more than she anticipated.

That's more like the Kaga I know.

I grit my teeth, in reality, it hurts like hell, but I try not to let my wife see that, as she'll just feel worse, I did deserve it after all. "It's fine, and even if it wasn't, I said I deserved it, and that's true"

I convolute my words, attempting to throw her truth-telling ears off the scent. She gives an uncertain nod, not entirely convinced by my nasweras she moves the towel to my neck, gently dabbing at the wound.

I hiss in discomfort, my hands forming into fists at the sensation. My reaction just prompts Kaga to feel worse as her ears start to flatten and her expression saddens.

"I really am sorry; I was just so angry… I didn't mean to hurt you this much… I just wanted you to understand, but I crossed a line… I am sorry Shikikan… if you wish me to sleep somewhere else tonight, I understand…"

I wince as I move my body, taking her in an awkward hug as she continues to dab at my wound. "You regret your actions, while I regret mine. It sounds fair to me. An eye for an eye."

She nods slowly, a light smile slowly forming on her beautiful features. When she has washed most of the blood off, she moves her mouth to the wound, her breath tickling the incredibly sore area.

My body on instinct tries to shy away from her, remembering the two times she has now dug her fangs into me, but I force myself to hold my ground, confident that is not what she intends to do.

Indeed, her lips descend to the wound, and she starts lapping with her delicate tongue, cleaning the remaining blood from it, soothing the deep bite with the very mouth that caused it.

She works just as diligently as Akagi did this morning, digging her tongue into every crevice of the skin making sure that it truly is clean before retreating, giving me a short kiss as she does.

Akagi suddenly appears by my side, slowly guiding me up towards the bedroom. "I think you need some rest, dear husband, it's been a rather eventful morning, and quite frankly, you look like you have been in a drunken brawl with a pack of wolves."

I look down at my body, only just remembering that I am still not wearing a shirt, as I had left it in the shower room. "I shall go to town and buy some painkillers and medicinal balm. You simply rest." She pushes me into the bedroom, and Kaga follows.

I fall onto the bed, mentally drained as the fair-haired carrier lies next to me and curls her tails around me, trying to avoid the scratches and bites littering my body and focus on the untouched areas of skin as she cuddles closer. She was clearly trying to make up for the wounds she had caused by offering her fluffy appendages as a warm blanket, and I wasn't about to complain.

I sigh, closing my eyes enjoying the warmth, as my body still ached with pain. Truly, married life was tough sometimes, both physically, and mentally.
