Disclaimer: I don't own crap.
The sky had darken quite a bit. Grace knew it would be raining soon. "Do you wish to get wet." A gleam appeared in Youko's eyes. "The real question is do you?" Grace cocked her head to the side. Contemplating his innuendo, it was a classic.
She wasn't really against sex in general. Sex was just that sex. Grace's body nor mind was that of a virgin. Although she hadn't technically had willing sex in this life or her last. She was still curious about it. Her perverted mind didn't help in the least. Men, women, apparently demons. It don't matter sex was sex. She personally found no emotional connection to it. That being said Youko obviously did. Apparently to him the fastest way to a woman's heart was pleasure. Grace didn't fully understand that but she had shrugged it off.
Her mind that had wandered off into lala land immediately snapped back into focus. Youko had quite bluntly started moving him hands over her body. He didn't touch anywhere inappropriate. Just moved his hands down the sides of her neck. Over her shoulders, then down her sides before settling on her hips. He was still on top of her. Seeming to contemplate something and he stared down at her. "What is your relationship with that boy."
Grace just stared up at him face blank. She didn't know who he was talking about. She knew a lot of Boys. "Which one?" that obviously wasn't the best question to ask. Youko growled, eyes darkening in jealousy. "What's your relationship with every boy." Grace face still blank let amusement consume her being despite her blank faces. She didn't know if she wanted to describe her relationship with every boy she ever knew. "I know a lot of boys." She let a slightly perverse smile overcome her features. Youko's jealousy only seemed to spike. A dangerous aura settling over him.
"Describe your relationship with every one of them." Grace smirked eyes darkening. Youko really was just to easy to bait. "Strictly sexual." The bone chilling growl he gave made her shiver. "She's baiting you youko." Shuichi had to be the rational voice that ruined her fun.
"I don't care." he really didn't. "I've watched you for months. I've never smelt anything like that on you." he leaned forward burying his nose in her hair. His hands tightening on her hips. "It's been over a century since your last sexual encounter." He purred to himself. She was un awear he could tell. Grace blinked moving his hair out of her face. Although it was extremely silky to touch.
"My uncle will come out here to check on us. Especially when it starts to rain." She was still just staring up at the sky. Youko hummed. "We need to check in on mother." Youko huphed at his other half. Staring intently at Grace for several moments. "I will be back." Youko thoughtfully seem to contemplate something for a moment. Something Grace couldn't hear. Something that Shuichi didn't seem to like. "Yoko. Don't. You. Dare." Shuichi growled out. Youko smirked looking down at Grace for several moments. His eyes seemed to darken.
"It's to bad for red you see. He can't really stop me now can he?" Youko stated to Grace who blinked at him. "Stop you from what?" Youko hummed pulling her hair away from her neck. Gazing down at her almost lovingly. "They can't really take you away from me. It would be illegal really. It would give me by demon world standards the right to kill them. Whether they be human or demon. Male or female. You should remember this." Grace just stared up at him confused. She didn't have the slightest clue what he was about to do. That is until his head snapped forward. Burying his teeth in her neck. Grace's eyes went wide. The sting of the pain only staying for a moment before her eyes glazed over in pleasure.
She shivered moaning lightly when she felt his youkai invade her system. It was the strangest yet most pleasurable feeling she had ever experienced before. Her hand snapped up forcefully yanking at youko's hair. He pulled away at her yank.
Grace blinked at him still dazed as she stared up at him. "What have you done?" Shuichi asked horror in his voice. Youko didn't respond as he gazed down at her. Eyes slightly glazed over as well. Youko leaned forward lightly licking at the wound on her shoulder. "She submitted to it. It's final red."
"Youko." Shuichi's horror hadn't settled not at all. If anything it had only doubled.
"What did you do to me?" Grace asked her voice husky. Youko hummed at her once again. His face becoming thoughtful as he gazed down at her. "You're mine now."
Grace placed her fingers gently on her shoulder. Flinching at the sering pain there. "Don't touch it." Youko growled out grabbing both her hands and securing them with one of his own above her head. "I'm the only one aloud to touch it." He quite bluntly demonstrated this by licking the mark. A bolt of pleasure rushing through Grace before it disappeared.
"Youko." Shuichi once again growled out. Youko sighed at him bluntly glaring up at the sky. "Fine." Youko leaned down once more, ghosting his lips over hers. A smirk on his lips before he shifted into Shuichi. The hands around her wrists tightened as they shifted. Shuichi significantly shorter than youko now resting on her stomach. Were as youko had been resting on her hips.
"I'm going to kill him." Shuichi growled out. Green eyes impossibly dark as he stared down at her. Glaring at the mark on her shoulder with spit. "I'm sorry about this." Grace blinked watching as shuichi leaned forward grazing his teeth over the mark on her shoulder. Grace flinched at the pain. Although it didn't stay for very long. It swiftly shifted to pleasure as well. "That's not fair." Youko chuckled out. Shuichi just growled at him. Apparently youko was getting the silent treatment from the redhead.
"So are you going to tell me what he did to me?" Grace really was confused by all this. She didn't understand what youko had did. Why he had bitten her. What had made shuichi so mad at him. She disliked not knowing things. Withholding information from her infuriated her. Although she hid her anger quite well. Shuichi released a breath as if to calm himself. He stood yanking grace up with him gently. "He marked you as his."
Grace snorted at him. "yes he did tell me I was his. I get that much but how am I his. In what way does this mark dictate it? What kind of mark is it? If it's a slave mark or a mark of youki ownership in any way I will castrate you both. Pick. Your. Answer. Wisely. Minamino."
Shuichi's eyes darkened even more. Although this fleet slightly impressed Grace she kept that to herself. "He. Marked. You. As. His." Shuichi gritted out angrily. Eyes continuing to darken.
"You are by demon law now within the third stage of courting. He skipped right over the other two marks. You're bound to us now. The last step is yokai marriage even at this stage yokai marriage is unbreakable. As soon as the marks consummated you will be ours for eternity. Your life force will grow too meet our own. If you die we die. If we die you die. I. Can. Not. Take the mark away now. You submitted to it. You consented to it. By not fighting back against it. By not pushing him away until after it was done. By not verbally protesting his mark you submitted, consented, you are ours now. Just as much as we are yours. There is no getting out of this. That damn fox just royally screwed us both over."
Shuichi paced angrily. He had been willing to try out a human relationship with Grace. He had not been open to the demons form of courting. Youko had known that, they had had in depth conversations about this.
"Eh it really isn't my fault. I figured if I had fought back against the youkai invading my system it would have been worst for me. More painful even. I'm not a big fan of pain. I tend to shy away from it." Shuichi stopped pacing snapping his head back towards her. An almost gentle look in his eye.
"It would have been painful. Especially if youko had continued to force the mark on you. It would have eventually forced you at one point or another to submit to it." He didn't really seem to want to give her that information with his relunctics to provide it and all. Grace assumed he had been looking to blame her completely for all of this.
"You best get ta gettin' in this house gal." Grace hummed lightly. Her uncle had peeked his head out the back door. Scold on his face as he glared at both of them. "Uncle." Grace pivoted on her feet to stare her uncle down. "What time is it?" her uncle grumble cussing lightly under his breath. "2:37 pm." Grace sighed shaking her head at him. He still insisted on using the american way of telling time. Despite the fact that he had lived in Japan for almost three years now.
"I'll be visiting grandfather today. Will you behave or will to have to call Carter again?" Her uncle actually rolled his eyes at her. Before turning away grumbling to himself. Grace smiled sweetly at her Uncle's back. "He'll check in for me at a random time."
Her uncle didn't respond. Not that she was expecting one from him. She sighed running her hand through her hair. "What's the side effects?" She asked glancing at kurama with an eyebrow raised. He also sighed. "Well, you'll become more attracted to Youko and I. Less attracted to others. Anyone that touches you without our permission runs the risk of death. It's the same on our end as well. You'll be able to feel the distance between us." He just seemed more and more frustrated by this. Grace scrunched up her nose.
"It'll be easier to stalk you. Although more difficult to catch you off guard. High and lows." She looked contemplative. As Grace walked to her house Kurama following her inside and up to her room without a word. Grace didn't respond to him. Even as she changed her shirt and pants in front of him. Not the least bit worried about him seeing her naked.
Kurama on the other hand had turned around quickly much to Youko's eerie. "The next bus is in five minutes. We should hurry up." Grace looked around her room once again calculative. Her head cocked slightly to the side as she eyed everything in it.
"What, will it eventually fade away or am i just stuck in courting?" Shuichi fell into contemplation at her question. Yoko snorted at it. "Well, give or take a hundred to two hundred years it would eventually fade." Grace sighed, she couldn't say she was surprised because in all reality she should have taken into account the mark was suppose to be shared my demons.
"What if I were to be with someone else?" Shuichi froze completely, Youko releasing a bone chilling growl at the mere thought. "Well, other then you not being sexually attracted to them. I suppose nothing would really stop you. Other then the fact that Youko and I will take great pleasure in murdering your lover then locking you away for eternity." his eyes were smoldering. The green in them so dark they could be mistaken as black if he were far away from you.
This didn't really bother her as much as it probably should. However that didnt stop her from being irritated that she couldn't be with anyone else other then Youko and Shuichi. "So your saying I could have sexual relations with someone else?" Shuichi sighed, eyeing her darkly.
Youko growled. "What part of future lovers death and being locked away does she not understand?" Shuichi answered back to Youko very swiftly. "Perhaps she isn't bothered by her unknown future lovers death. Or her future of being locked away." Grace rolled her shoulder as she glanced at the clock.
"We'll continue this conversation on the way there." they really needed to go if they wanted to catch the bus. Shuichi followed after her quickly as she began speed walking out of her home and to the bus stop. What could she say? Grace loved to aggravate people. Both Youko's and Shuichi's reaction were always so great to see, or in Youko's case hear. "Answer me this, what would you do if I all out refused to any type of relationship with either of you."
"I'd kill anyone she attempted to try and be with." Grace continued thoughtfully before Kurama could speak. "Say I just live out my life, never being with anyone." Youko and Kurama both were at a lost for words. "Well, she'd come around eventually, even if she did die i'd simply break into spirit world. Take her soul and find a suitable vessel until she gave into me." Grace frowned, handing the bus driver her money as she and Kurama got on.
Kurama had simply shrugged delaying Youko's message to her in surprising detail. "Koenma would be unable to stop me from getting to you. I'd walk into hell to pull you out of it."
This kinda got to her, in her opinion he hadn't known her long enough to be that possessive, she figured it more than likely had something to do with the mark she now wore. He unsurprisingly made her move over so he could sit beside her on the bus. She honestly didn't know how long she would be able to put up with this.
Well, It just kind of took me there, in the anime Kurama is 5'11 or 180 cm, Youko on the other hand is 7'0 or 213 cm, that's what I'm going by height wise, also why Youko is so much taller than Shuichi. I'm looking back on earlier chapters and realizing all the mistakes I made. So I'm slowly trying to edit the chapter, while also writing new ones. And this also catches us up so ill be giving steady updates now. Let me know what you think. Constructive criticism is always welcome. Till next time.
