"Stoking the Fire"
Chapter seventy-three "Mating Bite"
Azula sidled into the bedchamber, bed robe loosely fastened. She couldn't help palming her shaft through the silk as she watched her mate undressing in the moonlight. The natural light of the evening filtered in through the high windows and the heavy rasping of the ocean waves filled the room. The atmosphere was indeed romantic even if Azula's baser instincts were getting the better of her. Her shift had happened seconds on the other side of the door. She had been locking the front door after Kumiko left for the day and her omega's whispered instruction to follow her had filled Azula with wanton anticipation.
Zirin had been patrolling their grounds all day. Azula had asked wryly over dinner if she wanted the couch and she had refused. Azula assumed she was still on the beach somewhere, so she shut the bedroom door, smiling as Ty Lee turned toward her. Her round breasts bobbed and Azula's shaft ached at the sight. She sighed with something more than lust when her omega turned to press into her arms. Their bare flesh touched in passes and Ty Lee worked her robe off her shoulders slowly. Azula smiled as her shaft found a warm place against Ty Lee's hip. She smirked, raising an eyebrow.
Ty Lee liked the cocky look on her alpha's face. It meant she felt at ease. But she wanted an iota of seriousness to go with her decision. Her body had felt off-kilter for a couple of weeks now, but she had woken with an unquenchable desire that she knew Azula could fill. If what she could feel pressing against her was any indication, Azula felt the same.
"Azula?"
"Hmm?" Azula smiled, pressing tender kisses along Ty Lee's upturned throat. Her omega shuddered with desire.
"I love living with you. I love being with you. I love…you," Ty Lee babbled as her alpha continued her stream of kisses. Azula raised her head, surprise all over her face.
"I know. I love…" Azula's golden eyes were so soft with tenderness that she didn't need to finish the sentence. Ty Lee beamed at her, melting the alpha's heart further.
"I know you do. And I want you to show me how. If you'll have me, mark me, please…" Ty Lee brushed her hair over one shoulder, exposing her pale throat and shoulder. Azula's heart thudded a rapid staccato rhythm. She clutched Ty Lee close.
"You want this?" she asked hoarsely. Ty Lee nodded. She tilted her head back, sighing as Azula nipped and sucked along her throat.
"Oh Agni, yes…"
"How do you want it? Here?" Azula's hands went low, cupping the round cheeks of Ty Lee's ass as she pressed her nips in a few places. 'Here' was along her throat. "Or here?" she went lower to Ty Lee's shoulder. "Or perhaps here…."
Ty Lee gasped as Azula's head went low. She nipped the edge of her round breast. Ty Lee whined when Azula gave up her nip and lavished attention on her nipple, sucking and nibbling gently.
"Wherever you want to claim me…I'm yours…" Ty Lee whispered. The waves outside rasped louder in the quietness of their room, their small moans filling the air.
Azula lifted Ty Lee's chin with two fingers. They kissed longingly, and Ty Lee whimpered as Azula deepened the kiss, urging her thighs to open. Azula's cock throbbed against her hip.
"I think you want to be claimed utterly….." Azula kissed Ty Lee and gently flung her round, so her back was to the alpha's front. "Completely…" Ty Lee was pressed on her knees on the mattress. The omega moaned. Her thighs were already a slippery mess of her fluids. She canted her hips upward, begging wordlessly. "Irrevocably…. So all know it."
"Know….what?" Ty Lee's breath hitched as Azula's warm flesh bore down on her from behind, pressing her shoulders down to the mattress. The alpha's hands urged her hips up as she knelt into position.
Azula growled, sliding the head of her cock through Ty Lee's wet folds. She could feel the omega's inner walls try to grasp her on each pass through. Azula's fingers gripped her hips hard enough to bruise. Ty Lee gasped into the mattress beneath her.
"That you're mine….you….this…" Azula growled as she adjusted herself with one hand quickly. A testing of her hips had her head trapped by clinging hot silk. Her inner alpha went wild, urging her to fill and quickly. The urge to be fully wrapped in the divine heat surrounding her head was driving Azula mad. "Ah, this…."
"Zula, please!" Ty Lee whined beneath her. She wriggled her hips, trying to slide back onto the hard shaft poised against her opening. Her inner walls fluttered around Azula's head, feeling small drops of precum milked into her. She sighed, but it wasn't anywhere near enough. "More, Agni, please, more…..I'm yours…"
"Mine," Azula agreed, growling. She hissed a sigh as she gave a few thrusts, her shaft pushed easily inside to the hilt. Ty Lee was just so wet she took her easily. Azula couldn't resist playing the gentle-alpha, giving small pumps of her hips and staying buried, pressing a smear of kisses along the back of Ty Lee's back and shoulders.
When Ty Lee was mewling beneath her, trying to thrust back against her, Azula let her inner alpha go, setting off at a more selfish pace, hips moving in long, deep thrusts that had Ty Lee crying out beneath her.
"Feel it… feel me…" Azula mumbled around Ty Lee's shoulder. Ty Lee was pressed down beneath her, pussy clenching her short hard thrusts. As her stomach tightened in excitement, her shaft grew heavier and Azula couldn't stop fucking her if she tried.
Ty Lee screamed and Azula let herself go, pumping her hips in harder strokes. She could feel Ty Lee's walls clutching her, holding her in as she shook beneath her. Azula laved her tongue in a few spots, then made a decision. Ty Lee's head lifted, and she shrieked as Azula's teeth sank into the back of her right shoulder, marking her for her own. She came hard, clutching the rigid shaft splitting her open and sweat plastered Azula's bangs to her face as she roared. She worked her knot in short hard thrusts, trying to work it the rest of the way in.
Luckily, Ty Lee's orgasm made it easier. She was still screaming as Azula pushed her knot fully in, feeling it clamp in with her lover's tightening inner muscles. Azula's hips were a blur and bright lights exploded behind her eyes as she came in a blistering whirl. As Azula spent, shuddering jolts of come streaming from her cock into the wet walls around her, she kept her mating bite, hissing around Ty Lee's shoulder.
The body beneath her was warm, pliant, and hers. Ty Lee's chi clutched at her, as her fingers scrambled over the sheets. When Azula's hand moved near hers, Ty Lee clutched onto it. Their fingers twined as Azula spent again and again into her. Finally, Azula fell atop her back, groaning. Her teeth left her shoulder, but Ty Lee could feel the bite would hold. She gave sleepy cries of contentment, wriggling back against her alpha. Azula nuzzled her bite mark, and kissed along the top of her spine contently. Her cock gave a weak spurt every now and again as Ty Lee milked her for everything she had.
The muscles in Azula's arms quaked and she fell onto one side, their lower bodies still tied. Her lips moved over Ty Lee's back and bite mark and she purred her satisfaction. Ty Lee's sluggish chi coiled around hers, keeping her drawn in.
"Mate…." Ty Lee whispered. Azula chuckled behind her.
"Yours now," she said. Ty Lee raised her head and smiled as she felt Azula kissing along the side of her cheek as she shifted position atop her. Azula's kisses were soft and slow along the curve of her throat and shoulder. Her tongue outlined her mating bite with care.
Ty Lee's breath hitched as her alpha stiffened within her and they started again.

"What are you doing?" Zuko asked. He had Izumi in her sling, one arm curled under her. Mai looked up from her parchment. She had been writing characters in a delicate hand, blowing idly at the ink as she wrote.
"Extending a royal invitation," Mai said calmly. Her daughter's bright eyes met hers and she grinned at her. Mai smiled back at the baby.
"To whom?" Zuko's eyebrow was raised and his tone was cool. The baby clutched his long fingers as he bounced her.
"Why, to our friend Ty Lee and her lover. Azula is due a portion of her inheritance, after all. And we'll get to see Ty. You'd like that, I'd think," Mai said evenly. Her husband pouted at her. He'd done remarkably well not brooding on losing Ty Lee's affections around her, but she saw a niche in his armor.
"I'm fine," Zuko snapped. "Besides, I've learned more than one woman is too much. You're all the woman I need."
It was a fine line. Mai almost melted with it as her heart twanged. He HAD been more attentive to her ever since Mountainside Manor. But Mai decided to press on.
"Who said you weren't? You know I'd like to see Ty for a change. We ARE friends," Mai said. Zuko flushed, looking guilty. He sat and rocked Izumi back against him.
"Of course, dear. You can do as you wish." Zuko began squirming with displeasure and Mai waited for him to go on. It was apparent he now had a bug under his skin about this. "Will Azula REALLY have to come with her?"
"I'd imagine they're mated by now," Mai said. It had to be said and she expected the grimace of displeasure on her husband's face. "We do owe Azula her monetary gains, and it's doubtful we'd get Ty Lee by herself. We'll just have to make the best of the situation."
"She's not going near Izumi alone," Zuko snapped. Mai heard the threadbare traces of fear in his voice. She nodded calmly.
"Of course. I know what your sister's capable of."
Zuko's face was blanched white with old pain. "Of course you do," he said miserably. Mai sighed. She got up from her letter and sat beside her husband. He was nuzzling their daughter's dark hair, listening as she babbled to him. She laid a hand on his knee.
"That's over and done with. We're together now, aren't we? Please, Zuko, we have to get past this," Mai said. Zuko sighed. Even after the infidelities, the lies, claiming Ty Lee and taking her daughter, his wife had stuck with him. She loved Izumi like she was her own. Zuko knew he must be lucky. He just had to feel it again.
"I will when Azula goes far away again," he confessed. He did give a hint of a smile as Mai grazed her lips against his. "Thanks, Mai. I don't deserve you."
"You don't," Mai agreed. "But you're stuck with me."
Zuko gave a hopeful smile.

"Ready?" Tsung asked. Ying nodded. They were dressed in their Kyoshi Warrior garb, faces made up and gold head-pieces in place. The servants slid the doors to the large elaborate sitting room open and both women walked in slowly, bowing at the waist to the old woman sprawled on her sofa.
Granny Win Lei was a descendant of Avatar Kyoshi's daughter; she was one hundred and eight years old and blind to boot. She blinked milky white eyes as the two women slowly knelt before her.
"Granny Win Lei," Ying said carefully. "You have been gifted with the location of Avatar Kyoshi's secret of making life. We ask as faithful Kyoshi Warriors, and descendants of her island, that you grant us access to the portal."
"Why?" the old woman croaked. She coughed weakly. A servant ran in and held up a small basket at her side. The coughing fit passed, and Granny Win Lei waved him aside. Both women waited patiently.
"Because I love this woman," Tsung declared. She set her hand over Ying's and squeezed. "We wish to be married and I will not share her with an alpha. Please, extend the site of Kyoshi's secret so we too can give life…."
"They are warriors under Suki's command," one of the servants whispered helpfully to the old woman. "I know them. Tsung and Ying have served the island and the past Avatar's name since they were old enough to don the makeup and robe."
Granny Win Lei laughed delightedly. "You too wish to create life. Kyoshi could not be deterred and neither will you. What boon have you brought me?"
Tsung and Ying had been warned of this ahead of time. Ying offered a fine jade bracelet that had belonged to her mother and Tsung had a necklace handcrafted in the Fire palace. The old woman turned the jewelry over in her hands, sighing at the weighted texture.
"And what will you teach this new life you want?" Granny Win Lei asked. She tucked the bracelet and necklace away under a cushion.
"We'll teach him or her about Avatar Kyoshi and her awesome ways," Ying promised. Tsung smirked. Particularly the part about getting what you wanted. Granny Win Lei gestured with her cane and another servant ran to collect a faded map from the bookshelf behind her.
"The site you seek is not of this world. Go to the Earth Kingdom Main Land. The portal is there and it will take you to the spirit realm. Follow this trail and you will find the location…."
Tsung and Ying locked eyes. A thrill of anticipation swept through them. They were really doing this. There was no turning back now.

Zirin sighed as she brought in the post. Ever since her mating mark on her omega, Azula had been nothing but a love-struck puppy, nuzzling and nipping Ty Lee's shoulder, even when they were doing mundane household things. It was starting to get really annoying.
"Letter, Princess Azula," Zirin groused. Her princess looked up, mouth agape around the back of Ty Lee's shoulder. She had pushed the sleeve of her robe off, so she could lave the bite with her tongue and nip it. Ty Lee was shivering against her, nipples hard beneath the robe's fabric.
"Can you read it, then?" Azula asked. She smiled and swept her free arm round Ty Lee's waist. She rubbed her flat tummy, smiling as her mate ground back against her. Her shift was sprouting, and she rubbed it slowly between the layers of their clothing.
"Sure, while you're popping an alpha boner, why not," Zirin growled. She broke the royal seal and unwound the parchment. She read and raised an eyebrow. "Royal summons. Or more like invitation. In Fire Lady Mai's hand."
Both Ty Lee and Azula stopped their groping and looked curiously to Zirin.
"Let me see that," Azula snapped. She reached forward. Ty Lee read over her shoulder.
The letter was written in a polite tone and signed with Mai's signature. Ty Lee felt a twinge at that. Azula had lain with Mai forever ago…
Azula felt her mate's apprehension. She rubbed Ty Lee's shoulder and kissed her mating bite apologetically. Finally, she felt her mate melt under her touch, leaning back gladly into her arms. Zirin regarded the two with more than a hint of disgust.
"Don't you two have better things to do?" she snarled. Azula smirked at her.
"Showing my mate she is my heart's desire IS a better thing to do," Azula purred. Ty Lee sighed, rubbing her hands along her mate's arms.
"So, where's your mark? Or do you royals not do that in return?" Zirin wondered. Ty Lee caught her mate's eye over her shoulder.
"We're not above being bitten. Only Ozai was too good for it, but even Grandfather let his wife bite him," Azula murmured. She didn't sound too conflicted saying her father's name aloud. Ty Lee coiled her chi in soothing passes along her mate's. She felt Azula perk.
Ty Lee turned in her mate's arms to twine her arms around her slim waist. Was that an invitation for later?
Zirin chuckled bitterly and tossed the parchment at the sofa. "So how do you want to go about this, Princess? Mai is all well and good, but walking right into the palace, well…I don't think you should go."
Ty Lee was wont to agree but Azula's next words surprised her. "We'll go. The letter said I'm getting a chunk of money owed me and I have a mate now. If Zuzu tries anything, all his guards and the other Kyoshi Warriors won't keep me off his ass."
Ty Lee was shocked. "Azula, I agree with Zirin. I don't think Zuko will try to arrest you but even I'm not a hundred percent sure. Let's just make arrangements through your lady mother. We can stay here."
Azula's eyes were soft as she smiled down at her omega. "Not just for the money. I want us to go for your sake. You can see your child."
Ty Lee's heart cracked, and tears formed in her eyes. She buried her face against her mate's shoulder, sniffling. Azula rubbed her back in small circles. She knew she'd chosen right.
"Yes….Azula…"
Azula smiled gently to her mate. They kissed sweetly. Kumiko eased into the front door, a large basket crooked in her elbow.
"Newly mated pairs are always at it," she said but she was smiling. Ty Lee buried her face in Azula's shoulder, blushing. Azula exhaled slowly, rubbing her omega's back.
"We'll go when we're ready….in fact, maybe we should wait abit so your pup will remember your face after this visit," Azula murmured. Ty Lee's eyes sparkled with tears, but she nodded. Anticipation of seeing her baby again swept through her.
"Go? Where to, my princess?" Kumiko began putting away the food stuffs in the kitchen. Zirin lounged on the sofa, elbow on her upturned knee.
"The capital. We've received a royal invitation," Azula murmured.
"They're not going so quickly," Zirin added helpfully. Her princess raised an eyebrow at her.
The day passed pleasantly and after dinner, Zirin groused a good night and headed to the sofa. It had gotten abit cool on the beach at night, so she had opted to stay inside. Ty Lee went with her mate to the bedroom and the door was shut. Azula was sprawled on her side reading a scroll, but she patted the mattress beside her. Ty Lee cuddled against her, cheek pressed against the silk of Azula's bed robe.
"Azula…thank you…." Ty Lee began. Azula looked away. Her eyes were serious.
"You need to see your child. And…I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to see her as well…" Azula's eyes slid furtively to the side. Ty Lee kissed her cheek softly.
"We will…."she said gladly. Ty Lee couldn't worry if her mate would try anything around the princess, or the Fire Lord. But she wanted to see Izumi's face as well. That meant something to her.
The two twined on the bed, kissing softly. Ty Lee wound up on top and Azula clasped her head gently in her hands, holding her in place for another kiss.
"Besides, I think we should match…."
"Match?"
Azula smiled slyly. She unfastened her robe, and let it pool around her shoulders. "You should bite me too. Zirin has the right of it."
Ty Lee's heart thudded. She shifted atop of her mate, feeling the bulge between her alpha's thighs grow.
"Azula…."
"Do it, Ty. I want to be part of you, too. I…."
"I know," Ty Lee murmured. She leaned down to kiss her lover, stripping her own robe. They came together smoothly.

Ying clung to Tsung's hand excitedly. They'd found the precise location and the portal had taken their physical bodies to the spirit world. It was a long-harbored secret of Kyoshi Island and now they were dwelling where usually the Avatars had known where to venture…
Spirits of different colors brightly lit the path, bobbing to and fro and guiding them. Ying gasped as the expanse of trees opened to a field of impossibly red flowers. They looked like fire lilies but looked far more ethereal. Close by was a jagged mountainside capped with ice. Tsung shouldered her pack and clung to her wife's hand. It had been a fine ceremony on Kyoshi Island and they had supplies enough to sample Kyoshi's Cave once they found it. The site would be theirs alone for their honeymoon.
And it was unlikely anyone in the world knew about it aside from their island's chosen few.
Ying pointed to a cave opening in the side of the mountain. "It's got to be there!"
Tsung clutched her hand. The spirits settled into odd shapes, loitering round the entrance to the cave's tunnels.
"Leave your weapons behind! All trappings as well," one spirit advised. He smiled a wide smile that showed far too many teeth.
"We need at least the towels. And some food," Tsung complained.
Some of the spirits huddled. Ying could hear 'cave' and 'water' and a guffawing laugh. Finally, the spirits scattered their pow-wow and nodded their approval.
"Just the weapons. You'll have no need of them inside. Go, and be fruitful." This from a spirit with wide circular eyes. He winked one of those large eyes obnoxiously.
Tsung and Ying carefully laid their katanas and warrior fans along the entrance of the cave. They lit fire crystals to light the way and carefully ventured inside.

A few short weeks passed.
In that time, the royal summons had not been answered. Not even when Ty Lee asked if a letter had been sent. Azula, it seemed, was content to make her brother sweat it out to when they'd be visiting.
Ty Lee's body wrecked havoc on her nerves in that time. Her breasts grew swollen and she couldn't keep half her meals down.
Zirin found Azula pacing the outside of the house. She cast a curious glance inside the house.
"Shouldn't you be with your mate?" she asked. Azula gave a crooked nervous smile.
"Some healer type is assessing her chi. I was too nervous to watch."
"You? Nervous?" Zirin scoffed. She could see Azula sweating at the temples and changed her tactic. "I'm sure it's nothing. Well, nothing you can't handle."
"I'm going in," Azula swore. She stalked into the side door, Zirin following. They made their way to the bedroom where Ty Lee was naked, a bent woman assessing her body and measuring her chi. She smiled, blowing out a candle.
"Is this the sire? Congratulations, Princess," the woman beamed. Ty Lee looked pale as she slid into her robe, covering her naked body. She looked dizzy, so Azula stalked forward and readied an arm round her waist. Wait….
"Sire?" she asked, looking to Ty Lee. Her mate gave a nervous smile, but really she was wondering what Azula's reaction would be. She had kept her other pup from her after all.
"Looks like that heat did the trick. Please, say something," she begged. Azula wrapped her arms tightly round her mate and buried her face in her shoulder. She nodded against her.
"It's good tidings," she declared but her heart was jackhammering wildly in her chest. "I'll keep you safe, Ty. You and the pup…."
Ty Lee's heart surged and she melted into her mate's arms. She laughed, tears stinging her eyes. She couldn't feel any darkness in her mate's chi, just stunned contentment.
"And I guess we can go to the capital soon. Really stick it to Zuzu," Azula sneered aloud. Her mate swatted her back, then soothed the area with gentle circles.
"Azula…."
"I know…" Azula nibbled along her mating mark, soothing her mate.
End for now
End notes: A few more to go, folks! Two or three at the utmost. Stick with me to the end and stay strong, my lovelies. Like it, drop a review and let me know! If the next one is a bit longer to post, just wait for it…. It's coming, promise.
Most sincerely, pen
