"Stoking the fire"
Chapter sixteen "Fire Lady's Return"
The next morning, Ty Lee woke with the Fire Lord in her bed and she didn't find it a strange occurrence. They twined limbs gently and woke with gentle kisses. They were aptly sated from the night before and took the time to connect with soft touches and embraces.
"Any important meetings today?" Ty Lee asked. She propped on Zuko's bare chest, hand caressing his side. Zuko tucked one arm behind his head, smiling up at her.
"Later. It's still early," he smiled. Ty Lee laughed.
"I know. You have to enjoy the still moments," she said. Zuko nodded and cupped the back of her head. He pulled her gently down for a kiss. He kissed Ty Lee's cheek after their lips parted.
"You've put me so at peace lately, Ty. I don't want the day to start," he confessed. Ty Lee's heart lurched happily. She was starting to feel so much more joy whenever Zuko smiled at her. It would be disconcerting if anything further developed, but there was a deep affection growing between them. It was startling when she dwelled on it.
'I care about him. I want him to be happy. But I love Azula,' Ty Lee thought. It wasn't fair Zuko made her push Azula from her mind when he pulled her against his front, hands seeking out her curves. His hands were warm against her breasts, thumbs gently touching her nipples and making them erect. Ty Lee buried her face against Zuko's shoulder, giving a small gasp.
"I thought you were tired," she teased. She felt Zuko harden against her hip. She widened her thighs against him. Zuko gently rolled her onto her back and climbed on top. His hand moved gently over her belly and rubbed as if to caress the growing child inside her. "Zuko….."
"Ty…. Spirits, Ty Lee, I want you," he stammered. Ty Lee tugged on his shoulders, drawing him into her arms. They moved against each other like old partners and Zuko pushed inside her firmly. He had a firm hold on his lust and made his thrusts languid and long. Ty Lee moved beneath him, crying out against his shoulder softly. Her hands clutched at his back. Zuko's long thrusts grew shorter and harder and he angled on his elbows to keep off her stomach. Ty Lee's hands clawed his lower back, digging in. His frenetic movements tipped her over the edge. Zuko's eyes shone down at her as sweat rolled off his brow. He grunted with pleasure as he surged inside her.
When they were done, they lay against each other, wrapped in each other's limbs. Zuko kissed her hungrily and Ty Lee let herself be held by him. When her eyes opened, settling on his content smile, her heart lurched.
'Why are you so good to me?' she thought to herself. 'Why couldn't Azula be more like you?' Her heart hurt, so she pulled Zuko into her arms. Her legs gripped his hips and her hands moved through his hair. "You're going to wear me out, Zuko," she smiled.
Zuko kissed her jaw tenderly. "I'll be more gentle," he promised. His cock felt good inside her still and Ty Lee gave a soft grunt of pleasure, shifting under him. Zuko gaped down at her as Ty Lee nibbled on his lower lip, and kissed him deeply.
"You already are," she admitted. Zuko's golden eyes gleamed. They kissed slowly and after separating, lay for long moments in the sheets. Ty Lee felt her anxiety being pushed away as Zuko rubbed her belly.
"Are you hungry?" he asked. Ty Lee nodded.
"Wait abit. Let's stay like this awhile," she suggested. Zuko settled his head in her lap and Ty Lee held him.
After they got up, Zuko threw on a robe to find a servant and order breakfast. Ying was already stretching in the sitting room and ordered her own plate. Zuko also commanded the male servant to fetch his shaving tools and bring them to the concubine's apartment. Ty Lee was combing her hair in the washroom in front of the large vanity mirror. Her own robe was untied, but it was nothing in her to be modest. Ying had seen her naked and she had just lain with the Fire Lord.
Zuko's eyes roaming over her open curves made her smile slyly. He pushed the sleeves of his robe off, baring his chest as he lathered his face to shave. The rest of the robe remained belted over his waist, covering everything, but Ty Lee still eyed him. Zuko hummed alittle under his breath.
He carefully opened the straight-edged razor and laid it against his cheek. Ty Lee watched him shave carefully. She laid a hand over his arm.
"Can I?" she asked. Zuko smiled at her.
"Sure," he said. Ty Lee held his jaw carefully with one hand and swiped the razor as carefully as she could down his cheek and jaw. As more of Zuko's face was revealed, his smile was wide. Ty Lee wiped abit of shaving cream off his face and leaned up to kiss his cheek.
"Are you going to grow a beard someday? You are the Fire Lord," she grinned. Ty Lee laid the razor on the sink and wrapped her arms around his neck. Zuko kissed her, getting a bit of cream on her face. She giggled.
"One day. Maybe after the baby is born," he said softly. Ty Lee's gaze went down and he clasped her waist gently. "What is it? What's wrong?"
"Will….will I have a place in the baby's life?" Ty Lee fretted. Her position was high, especially with being pregnant with the only royal heir, but in times past, the royal wife could take control of the children and command them herself, with or without the say of the concubines. Ty Lee didn't think Mai would even want to look at her child's face, let alone take him or her from her, but the fear was still there.
Zuki's eyes softened. "Yes, of course you will! I'll always have a place for you. You have my word."
"What about….Mai?" Ty Lee asked. "She's got to come home sometime."
Zuko's eyes gleamed. "I'll work very hard to get her by my side again. I still don't know if we should tell her the truth about the child."
One of Zuko's hands went between them, rubbing her belly. Ty Lee arched into his touch. "I don't what she'll do with the knowledge….but it might bring her back to you sooner."
"We still enjoyed your elevation of status," Zuko blushed. "She won't easily forgive me for that."
"Between you and me, there's nothing to forgive. Not about that, at least," Ty Lee blushed. The sex between them was good and her body craved affection. To ignore her love for Azula to enjoy her brother grated on her mind and weighted her heart, but the moment was warm and Zuko leaned to carefully kiss her again. She clung to his back.
"We'll get through," Zuko vowed. Ty Lee kissed his cheek again and grimaced.
"I missed a spot," she said. She lathered the area and carefully slid the razor down Zuko's jaw. He blinked, trusting her. He waited as she clacked the razor against the sink. Ty Lee dabbed his cheek with a rag and wiped the cream off. "There, smooth."
Zuko smiled at her. He seemed about to speak when there was a knock at the washroom door.
"Yes?" Ty Lee asked. The door opened and Ying held out an envelope.
"A servant delivered this. It came by messenger hawk," she explained. Zuko accepted it and leaned against the sink. Ying carefully shut the door and Ty Lee watched Zuko as he read. His face paled and he looked hopeful yet crushed all at once.
"What is it?" Ty Lee asked. Zuko raised his eyes to hers. He looked casual half dressed, his robe still bunched around his waist. His abdominal muscles flexed as he heaved a sigh.
"It's from Mai's mother. They'll be home soon. Today or tomorrow," Zuko said. His eyes looked distracted. Ty Lee's heart leaped in her chest. She was glad Mai would come home, for Zuko's sake, but she knew the Fire Lady wouldn't just fall into Zuko's arms. She was angry at them and would be inclined to make them suffer.
Ty Lee touched his bare shoulder. His flesh was warm and his heart beat beneath her fingers as she ran them down his chest. "That's great! At least she'll be back," she said earnestly, trying to let her optimism wash over the distraught Fire Lord. Zuko heaved a sigh.
"It is….I just…." Zuko's eyes lowered. Ty Lee couldn't help it. She touched his cheek, making him look at her.
"It'll be okay, Zu," she said softly. Zuko nodded but his eyes were troubled.
"I should get dressed," he said, turning to leave. He stopped when Ty Lee's arms wound around him from behind. She laid her cheek to his back.
"Things will be fine. Believe that," Ty Lee said. Zuko touched her hands and stood still, absorbing her curling chi.
"Thanks, Ty," Zuko said softly. He turned and wrapped Ty Lee into his arms. He tried not to think it would be the last embrace for awhile and his body lurched. Zuko lifted his head and was about to separate but Ty Lee took a chance. She ran a hand up and cupped the back of his neck. Zuko blinked at her in surprise and Ty Lee stood on tiptoes to kiss him.
Zuko planned to make it a short kiss, a friend's reassurance, but Ty Lee's chi curling against his felt too good and his arms wound around her waist, clutching her against his front. Her breasts pressed against his bare chest, separated by her robe, but the curves still felt good. Zuko found himself murmuring into her mouth and Ty Lee kissed him hungrily. Her tongue stroked against his.
Ty Lee gave a soft gasp into his mouth as he pushed her up against the vanity and sink. His hands ran down her thighs and he lifted, pulling her onto the sink. Ty Lee's thighs went around his waist. After a few more moments of passion surging higher, Zuko made himself lift his face from Ty Lee's. He gaped down into her surprised face. Her brown eyes were warm with affection and his body throbbed with spiraling warmth.
"If you need company, you know where I am," Ty Lee said softly. "Even if it's just a game of Pai Sho. I'm here for you."
Zuko nodded dumbly. He bowed his head against Ty Lee's shoulder and shuddered, pushing his lust low. Her arms wound around his neck. Zuko shrugged into his robe sleeves and adjusted the fabric over himself. As he left her apartments, he focused on getting to the royal apartments, getting aptly dressed and waiting to greet his wife and her family. His mind darted in frantic circles and he tried not to get a headache. He had to focus on the task at hand.
"Good morning, Zuko," Suki said in the hallway. Zuko's smile was distracted, but he genuinely looked happy to see her.
"It's good to see a friendly face," he admitted. Suki beamed and kept pace with him.
"Big meetings today?" she asked. "The council should be at work on your tasks."
"They're spreading the word to the outlying islands and cities," Zuko said. He scratched the side of his smooth jaw. Ty Lee's clever hands had been so smooth as she had shaved him….. "I got a message by messenger hawk. Mai's coming home."
"That's great!" Suki beamed. Zuko's shoulders slouched. "That IS good, right?"
Zuko gave a rueful smile to her as they opened the front door of the royal apartments. "It is and it isn't. Considering the nature of our situation….."
Suki's heart beat a staccato rhythm as Zuko gestured her to enter with him. They closed the door and searched every corner and nook of the royal apartments, making sure there weren't any entrances or openings to hidden passages. Zuko internally berated himself for just not opting to explore with Azula when they were children. If he did he wouldn't be certain he was being watched at almost every moment and he would know where all the hiding places were.
"Ty Lee or….the baby?" Suki asked carefully. After satisfied there were no ears listening, Zuko collapsed onto a sofa. His heart lurched.
"The baby," he admitted. "Only we know and it's horrible of me to say, I'm not sure if we should tell my wife. She's so angry with me already. What will she do with it?"
Suki sat beside Zuko. She found herself patting his knee, despite herself. Zuko sat up straight at the touch. He started, staring at the Kyoshi Warrior beside him. "I can't tell you whether to let Mai in on everything or not. She may forgive you if you do. She WILL be angry. There is no doubt about that."
"Yes…." Zuko scratched the side of his jaw and leaned his head back on the sofa. "Why is my life always in such a mess?"
"You're the Fire Lord," Suki said ruefully. She had to stop herself from running her fingers through Zuko's loose hair. "I guess it comes with the territory."
Zuko raised his head and smiled at her. "Thanks, Suki. You save my sanity."
The compliment made Suki's heart surge and she rose, smoothing her warrior's robes. "We'll be on patrol, Zuko."
Zuko gave a half wave as she left the front door of his apartments and he went to change. After sliding into his trousers and tunic, he called for a servant as he sat to pull on his boots. They came to help fasten his shoulder armor and cloak. Zuko held his arms out and they slid leather gauntlets onto the sleeves of his tunic.
"Shall my lord require anything else?" one of the servants asked. He combed Zuko's hair back and pulled it up into a topknot. Zuko waited as he set the Fire Lord's ornament into the topknot.
"No, thank you. I must see to things," he said. The servants bowed and tidied up his apartment. Zuko was about to give instruction to make sure his bed was properly made, when he faltered. Mai would more than likely seek her own room, and wouldn't want to stay in the royal apartments with him. He'd have to accept that was more than likely the outcome for today, at least. He sighed and strode out of his chambers.

Zuko stood with Suki in the courtyard and watched the Kyoshi Warriors drilling. Their form was always excellent and he was often impressed by their ferocity. He was starting to feel almost at ease when there was a commotion at the palace gates.
The clattering of carriage wheels filled the air and the Kyoshi Warriors stopped their kata and formed lines behind Suki and Zuko. Zuko was glad for the back up and out of the corner of his eye, he could make out Ty Lee and Ying pausing at the edge of the rows of girls in green. Ying was dressed for the day in her usual Kyoshi Warrior garb and make-up, but Ty Lee was resplendent in her new red robes.
Ty Lee's eyes rose and met Zuko's for an instant and a clash of understanding welled between them. She smiled, silently wishing him luck and Zuko bravely smiled for her. Then his attention was drawn back to the chicken-horse carriage coming to a halt in the courtyard. The door opened and a servant clambered down, rolling down the steps. He paused and held a hand out. Lady Michi emerged first, looking none the worse for travel. Tom-Tom jumped down after her and grinned at Zuko. Then Mai stepped down, far more quietly and sedately than her brother.
Zuko's heart slammed in his chest as his erstwhile wife lifted her dark eyes and met his. She seemed paler than usual. Was she ill? His heart surged with worry and he wanted to take care of her. Zuko's fingers tensed then clenched into fists. He uncoiled his fingers and smiled, walking forward. Lady Michi swept a bow to him and he took her hand and kissed it.
"Welcome home," he smiled. Michi and Tom-Tom beamed at him, but Mai only quietly watched him. She could feel his chi pulsing toward her, longing to twine in hers, but she kept her aura still and resolute. She saw the flicker of pain in his golden eyes, before polite worry warred across his face. "My lady."
Mai's eyes darkened and she frowned. "We'll be going to rest. I'll call on you when I'm ready." Her words were neutral for all ears present, but the look on her face said she'd be anything BUT ready. Zuko's heart sank.
"Of course," he stammered. "Tsung, Yoshiko, would you please escort the Fire Lady and her family to their chambers?" Mai was more than likely staying in the royal family chambers with her mother and brother. The two women nodded and flanked the royals, moving with them inside the palace. A few more servants jogged out to collect their luggage from the carriage.
Zuko kept his posture rigid, but his knees began to quake. Suki stood at his elbow. She gently nudged his arm. "Come on, Fire Lord. Let's get you sitting down."
Zuko tried not to slouch as he moved to go inside away from everyone's prying eyes. His eyes rose and locked with Ty Lee's. Worry and sorrow were in her wide brown orbs. She moved to flank his other side, Ying keeping pace. Suki gave her friend a rueful look. Zuko wanted to reach out and take Ty Lee's hand, but the servants were already so gossipy. They were sure to spread how he had spent so much time with Ty Lee around as it was, and that would get to his wife soon anyhow. He didn't want to make a volatile situation any worse than it had to be.
"Ty Lee! There you are! Oh, and Fire Lord Zuko," Lord Genma's wheedling voice sounded from close by. Ty Lee gave a small growl under her breath and she didn't hesitate to touch Zuko's sleeve.
"Later, Lord Genma," Zuko commanded. The old lord paused, looking very put out.
"If you wish it," he sniffed. Zuko glowered at him.
"I do," he snapped. Ty Lee couldn't help feeling satisfied by the dumbfounded look on her father's face. She tucked her hand in the crook of Zuko's arm. They all entered a private sitting room.
Zuko collapsed on the floor and leaned back on his hands. "Spirits! Mai hates me. You all saw how she looked at me."
Suki gave him a rueful look. "From her view, her husband is spending time with Ty Lee. She has to know she's pregnant. Think of how she sees it."
Zuko and Ty Lee flashed a guilty look to each other. Ty Lee rubbed her still flat belly, sighing. "We'll have to tell her. It will soften the blow."
"I know, Ty. I do. How much more anger will this cause her?"
"Better than causing her further pain," Ying said wisely. Zuko sighed.
"All of us here know the truth. We have to keep it that way awhile longer. Just us," Zuko commanded. His golden eyes focused on his lover, her friend, and the leader of the Kyoshi Warriors. Ty Lee was on his side and he had no reason to believe Ying wasn't. Suki was watching him with a still expression he didn't recognize and Zuko's mind shivered. "Right?"
This last word he directed to Suki. She inclined her head in a nod. 'Just once, I'd wish you look at me the way you've been looking at Ty Lee,' she thought.

"Well, Ty Lee is pregnant. You're going to have to come to grips with that," Michi was saying. Mai was allowing a servant to comb her hair, and she slit her eyes open at her mother at her callous words.
"I know, Mother. I read the announcement," she bit off. Michi ignored her tone.
"We should congratulate her, shouldn't we? Your husband will have a child. You needn't worry over your heats so much," Michi suggested. Mai fumed but Tom-Tom gently laid a small hand on her arm. She sighed and coiled her anger inward.
"Mother, really, you're the pinnacle of worldly advice," Mai groused. Michi frowned.
"Don't take that tone with ME, young lady," Michi retorted. She stalked off. Tom-Tom raised worried eyes to his enraged sister.
"Is Zuko really going to have a baby with someone else?" he wondered. Mai wiped the corner of her eyes. She dismissed the servant before she could see her cry.
"Seems like it," she said. She ruffled her brother's dark hair. Tom-Tom pursed his lip, trying to think of a way to cheer his sister.
"Well, your friend is close with Zuko. She can cheer you up, too," he suggested. Mai's heart lurched.
"I don't think it's as easy as that, kiddo," she sighed. Tom-Tom blinked, not understanding. He had always liked the smiling acrobat in pink, and the new robes he had glimpsed her in were very fine. He personally didn't understand why his sister was upset at the mention of her.
"Oh," he said. "Well, anything you need, sis, I'm here."
"I know," Mai forced herself to smile for him. It wasn't her brother's fault her husband and ex-friend were idiots and had been pawing at each other while she was gone. There WAS a pregnancy announced, after all.
If Zuko thought she was going to roll over and let his stupid sulky looks work her into guilt to talking to him, he was sorely mistaken. 'Talking is all we'll ever be doing at this rate. Screw you, Zuko,' she thought callously. Unbidden, her mind went back to a cramped inn room and Azula's grunts of passion echoed in her memory. She flushed to herself even as her belly roiled.
"Are you going to be sick again?" Tom-Tom worried. Mai got to her feet and paced back and forth, willing her nausea at bay. The mental trick worked for a change. She rubbed her stomach.
"Spirits, I hope not," she admitted. "Shall we go for a walk?"
"Yeah," Tom-Tom agreed. He bounced up and took Mai's offered hand.

Zuko waited a few more hours before giving things a try. He made sure Mai was good and settled before attempting to talk to her. He paused at the door to the royal family's chambers. He knocked and waited. The door opened and Mai started when she noticed him. All too soon a neutral sullenness filled her eyes.
"What do YOU want?" she asked. Zuko swallowed. That wasn't a good start. He inclined his head politely.
"Please, can I come in?" he asked. Mai leaned against the doorway.
"No."
Zuko sighed. "Mai, we should talk."
"Well,l you're still not coming in," Mai retorted. She lifted one hand and studied the back of her well-manicured nails.
"I miss you, Mai!" Zuko insisted. "I love you. You have to know that."
Mai's eyes narrowed and she glared at him with hating demon eyes. "Did you think about how much you loved me when you were fucking Ty Lee?"
Zuko flushed bright red and he stammered. He couldn't tell her it was very, very good with Ty Lee. That could be kept between the two of them. But he had to continue. "I do love you, Mai. You're my wife!"
"Unfortunately," Mai lamented. Zuko swallowed hard. His adam's apple bobbed.
"Don't say that," he pleaded. Mai stared at him under her brows.
"You've hurt me far too often, Zuko. I don't want to be around you. Yes, I came back to the palace. Don't look too much into it," she snapped. Zuko's face flushed with shame and his golden eyes began to swim with tears. He scrubbed the corner of his eyes with a wrist.
"I'm sorry, Mai. None of this is your fault," he insisted.
Mai crossed her arms, leaning against the door. "But I couldn't get pregnant. You HAD to go after my friend. Well, I heard the news. Congratulations! You got what you wanted."
Zuko tried to gently take her hand but a knife dropped from Mai's sleeve and rested in her fingers. He faltered in mid touch. "Not everything… I still want you. I love you."
Mai's heart swam with confusion and hurt and the palpable hurt in Zuko's eyes made her almost back down. Almost. She turned to close the door.
"I can't say the same. Good night, Zuko," she said formally. Zuko stood still, watching her disappear behind the door. After the slab of wood closed, he stood blinking for odd moments. Finally, he sighed and stalked off slowly.
He realized he was on his way to Ty Lee's apartment and he cursed under his breath. He DID want some comfort from her, even if it was a friend's smile. But Mai would definitely get the wrong idea.
He went back to the royal chambers he once shared with the Fire Lady and started a fire in the hearth of the main sitting room. As he sat in an overstuffed chair, a servant knocked and sidled up to his side.
"Does my lord require dinner?" he asked. Zuko nodded.
"And send my fondness to Ty Lee," he commanded. The man bobbed a bow and took off. Zuko leaned his head back and sighed. His head hurt badly and he closed his eyes to stave off the pain. His clothing was too restricting so he unfastened his shoulder armor and cloak and pulled off his gauntlets. He was tugging off his boots when Ying entered with a knock.
Zuko was glad to see her; he'd always considered Ty Lee's close friend a friend of his as well. "How are things?" he gently asked her.
Without asking, Ying knelt at his bare feet and began to massage. Zuko started. "You don't have to do that, Ying."
"You look like you need some peace," Ying said. She tsked him and kept rubbing. Zuko leaned back and closed his eyes.
"Mai hates me. I told her I love her and she said she can't say the same," Zuko complained. He sounded like he was whining, but he was in pain. Ying set his feet down and leaned back on her hands on the floor.
"I guess you didn't get a chance to tell her," she guessed. Zuko cast guilty eyes to the Kyoshi Warrior.
"Definitely not this time. She could barely look at me," he admitted. Ying stood.
"Shall I… bring Ty Lee?" she asked gently. Zuko was about to say yes, but he remembered the hating glare in Mai's golden eyes.
"No…. I guess not," he said regretfully. Ying nodded, her eyes sad.
"We're here for you, my lord," she said softly. Zuko twiddled his fingers. He felt fidgety, but felt guilty for considering sharing more time with Ty Lee. It wouldn't his wife the right message, so he'd have to endure.
"Why am I so bad at trying to be good?" he mumbled under his breath. It was a valid worry even if the rewording of an old fear was enough to make him want to laugh. The moment of hilarity passed and Zuko clenched the arms of his chair.

Azula gave a soft sigh of pleasure. She leaned back, widening her knees. Her trousers were unlaced, but she hadn't allowed the servant to undress her. Her erect cock had been pulled out through the opening and the servant was lavishing attention on it, swiping her tongue up and down the shaft before pulling it into her throat. Azula rested a hand on the back of the girl's head and twined her fingers through her hair tightly.
"Just like that….Yes…." Azula hissed under her breath. The girl flicked pleased eyes up to her but Azula shoved her head lower, forcing her gaze down. "Keep going, girl…."
The servant redoubled her efforts, drawing Azula firmly inot her throat, bobbing up and down. Azula leaned back and forced her limbs to relax even as the rest of her was pulled tauter and tauter.
She blinked and in an instant, she was back in a sitting room of the royal palace, Ty Lee widening her thighs under her. She cooed and arched her back, beckoning Azula to enter her. Azula blinked. Her grin back then had been toothy as she obliged her omega's whim, giving into pleasure, but now the memory always tainted back to Zuko. Always Zuko! Her blood roiled as she imagined Ty Lee naked in his arms, both of them having a good time, both of them sweaty and entwined.
"Dammit!" Azula cursed under her breath. The girl cast worried eyes back up to her. Azula's breasts heaved as she panted to catch her breath. Rage was making her breathless.
"Princess, are you okay?" she asked. Azula growled. To ask the question, she of course was no longer supplying service to her erection. Azula gripped the back of her neck in one hand and shook her.
"Don't concern yourself with me!" she snarled. "Get back to it." She snapped the fingers of her other hand. Blue fire formed at her fingertips. The girl gulped and bent her head back down. Azula leaned back and sighed as warm wetness sealed her cock. She closed her eyes and willed wide brown eyes from her mind's eye.
End for now
End notes: Well here we go, kiddies, the pieces are being put into play. I know it seems Azula's been planning for too long, but she is nothing if efficient. Like it, smash that button and do that review thing :P Stay strong, my lovelies.
Most sincerely, pen
