Chapter 7: Ramen, Friends, and The Return of Sailor V

O.O.O

"I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self-respect. And it's these things I'd believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn't all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything." – F. Scott Fitzgerald.

O.O.O

"Happy Halloween," The Noodle Maker announced as the two patrons entered the establishment. He was wearing a clown nose and face paint, trying to get into the spirit of the day. "Ah Yosuke-san, Shinn-san, welcome back."

"Arigato, Hiroshi," Aino Yosuke replied as he smiled at the familiar face. "We'll take our usual dishes and our usual seats."

"Two bowls of garlic ramen coming up," Hiroshi confirmed as he went to work preparing their food.

"Somethings never change," Yosuke commented as he and Shinn took a seat on the stools facing outside. The pair long enjoyed people watching and commenting on spectacle as they ate from their favorite noodle place.

"Well, some things change," Shinn chuckled dryly. "We're older."

"Ha, ha no argument there," Yosuke agreed as he looked out the windows. Many of the people walking around were in costumes heading to different Halloween events. Yosuke's entire body shifted to follow a trio of girls in trash Sailor Senshi cosplay as they walked past."Hmm, now that's a sight I can't get enough of."

"They are too young for you," Shinn reminded him, feeling his throat tighten as soon as they came out of his mouth. Here Shinn was hoping to slowly warm Yosuke up to the idea of Minako dating an older man and an asinine remark comes out instead. "Of course. You're married, not dead."

"Amen to that," Yosuke laughed, still trying to get a look at the young cosplayers. "You know which Sailor girl I put on my sexual bucket list?"

Please don't say Venus. Please don't say Venus. Please don't say Venus. Shinn thought as his body stiffened up at his friend's remark.

"Mars. With those heels," Yosuke whistled as a perverted grin formed on his face. "Of course, like you said Mr. Buzzkill, she's probably old enough to be my daughter. And I don't make nearly enough to be a sugar daddy."

"That you don't," Shinn confirmed, glad his friend didn't indirectly make a comment about wanting to sleep with his Minako.

"Speaking of daughters," Yosuke added, clearing his throat. "Kikyo has expressed some concerns about Minako taking advantage of your courtesy and allowing her to lodge during her…um…other time of the month."

"I understand her concerns," Shinn acknowledged, well aware Kikyo had not been kind with her words. He could still remember how Kikyo had stared at him with daggers in her eyes when Shinn approached her and Yosuke about the possibility of sending Minako to his house during the heats. Shinn expected this kind of treatment. After all, Natsuki had been Kikyo's best friend and she had unwittingly raised her reincarnated spirit. She was the mother of a beautiful teenager and loyal to the memory of her departed friend. She had every right to be suspicious of Shinn's offer.

Especially since despite the good intentions of it all and his undying love for Minako, Kikyo was right. Shinn was in an inappropriate relationship with her daughter. He hated himself for having to hide it from Yosuke and Kikyo but they were dealing with concepts many parents were not capable of dealing with. The pair already had enough trouble understanding Minako as an Omega. The idea she was a reincarnated warrior, a part-time superheroine, and was Shinn's soulmate reborn would make their heads spin.

Shinn straightened up and gave his prepared speech. "But you know all I want to do is foster a safe environment. One where she feels at ease during such an uncertain period."

"That's pretty much what I told Kikyo," Yosuke smiled at his friend. "I know you'd treat her like a princess."

"She is a princess," Shinn confirmed, knowing he wouldn't get the irony. Since the conversation had been brought up Shinn decided to use it as a way to plan the idea of a possible future with Minako. "Though I have heard some Omega have a delayed attraction to some Alphas. Do you think I could date someone her age?"

"Huh?" Yosuke turned his head to watch the noodle maker bring over two garlic ramen bowls. "What are you talking about?"

"I'm just…getting a little lonely I guess," Shinn continued, but decided against outright saying what was happening between him and Minako just yet. "Usually an Omega is claimed by some Alpha before they hit 25. You don't see many female Omegas who are crazy cat ladies. I mean do you think I could keep up with someone Minako's age."

"Finally decided to put yourself back out there?" Yosuke wondered as he grabbed a pair of chopsticks from the container on the table and broke them apart. "Well I mean I kinda get it. I mean I've tried understanding the whole Alpha and Omega dynamic but…I won't lie it still goes over my head. Even with my own daughter being an Omega. I mean Minako is getting big. She's already been working as an assistant to that new band, The Three Lights and I believe she could easily have any one of them as her boyfriend."

Shinn crushed the chopsticks he was holding at the mention of Minako being with someone else. Seeing the word look Yosuke gave him, Shinn cleared his throat and grabbed another pair of chopsticks from the napkin holder.

"Sorry…I forget my strength sometimes. So…you wouldn't hold it against me," Shinn pushed, trying his best to plant the seed of an idea into his friend's head. "Being with someone Minako's age."

"No, I don't think I would," Yosuke shook his head before taking a big slurp of his noodles. "As long as you come back and tell me all the dirty details."

"Ah yeah totally," Shinn groaned as he pushed through and looked into his ramen. He suddenly lost his appetite. He felt like such a coward. He had hoped he would get Yosuke to legitimately consider the idea of him being with Minako. Instead, Yosuke had turned the idea of him dating a younger woman into a joke. He regretted not being more direct with his suggestion.

Letting out a deep sigh, Shinn pushed through the sense of nausea and began to eat his ramen as he began to talk with Yosuke about how the Yoimori Giants were doing this season.

O.O.O

"Give my love to the girls," Shinn replied as he watched the train doors close between him and Yosuke.. Once he was out of the station, Shinn sighed and looked up at the night's sky. He hated hiding the truth from his friend but he knew it was a necessary sin. Minako and he were soulmates. Being a soulmate didn't protect them from the world. It had not stopped Queen Beryl from brainwashing him during the Silver Millenium. It hadn't prevented Natsuki from being killed in a car accident.

There were two reincarnations they were unable to find each other. If he hadn't been there to help Minako, his beloved and soulmate, and his Omega there was no telling what kind of pain she would have been vulnerable towards. He'd promised her over and over in the multiple reincarnations he would do everything in his power to protect her and keep her safe. If this meant he had to lie and hide the truth from his friend then so be it.

Shinn arrived home to find the candy bowl had been picked clean by the Trick or Treaters. He picked up the bowl, went into the house, and removed his shoes. Depositing the bowl on the table by the door, Shinn maneuvered through the halls towards his bedroom, but was stopped by the sight at the top of the stairs.

Minako stood at the top of the steps in her Sailor V costume, with one leg propped on the other side of the hallway. She smirked down at Shinn with a lollipop hanging from the corner of her curved mouth.

"It took far too long to track you down," Sailor V Announced, pulling the lollipop from her mouth. Shinn wondered how many she had snagged from the bowl. "Your crimespree comes to an end, villain."

"I'm sorry miss," Shinn replied, recognizing he was in a roleplay scenario. He still did his best to feign ignorance. "I have no idea what you are talking about."

"A likely story," Sailor V chuckled, before putting on an elaborate and vulgar display with her tongue on the lollipop. Once she completed the show she gave the candy treat a kiss before pointing it at Shinn. "I know you're guilty. Now come along quietly and I promise you to go easy on you."

Before Shinn could respond, Sailor V pulled something out with her free hand from behind her back. It was a pair of handcuffs. Not regular handcuffs but the kind specially made to restrain alphas. The material was thicker and the chain linking them was reinforced. The device took Shinn by surprise.

"Where did you get those?" Shinn asked, arching his eyebrow at the restraints.

"I have a friend in the police," Sailor V admitted jingling the metal device in front of her. "They lend me them just in case I run into a tough customer like yourself."

"Well then I guess I have no choice but to comply," Shinn admitted after offering his wrist. Sailor V smiled, cuffed the exposed wrist and tugged Shinn along to the other cuff. She led him to the bedroom and threw the door open.

"Welcome to the interrogation room," Sailor V announced. "Get comfortable."

"Are you sure about this?' Shinn asked as he looked from the bed to Sailor V. Restraining Alphas often brought out their more feral side as they fought to obtain dominance. It was a scenario he and Natusmi had only attempted a handful of times. It was what resulted in the infamous destroyed hotel room incident. "

"What, you think the mighty Sailor V can't take you down?" Sailor V replied, balling her fists in determination. She pushed Shinn over onto the bed, unlocked the restraints, and secured them to the headboard. "Don't underestimate the power of a Sailor Senshi."

"I just hope you know what you're doing," Shinn gulped as he started at Minako. He could feel his heart pounding in his chest as his inner Alpha became aggravated at being confined. Capture our Omega. Mate her!

"Don't worry," Sailor V insisted as she sat on the bed and startled Shinn's legs to begin working on removing his pants. "I can handle anything you can dish out."

Minako undid Shinn's belt and jeans. She pulled down his pants and his boxer briefs to reveal his strained manhood.

"I knew it," Sailor V announced, staring at the hard cock in front of her. "You are carrying a concealed weapon."

"Careful with that," Shinn growled, feeling his desire build with his erection exposed. "You could hurt yourself if you don't handle it properly."

"Oh I have been wanting to handle his weapon all night," Sailor V smiled as she licked her lips and brushed her nose against Shinn's swollen knot. "Hmm, I love the smell of your knot. Your concentrated scent as an Alpha is most potent here and I can't get enough of it."

Shinn closed his eyes as he felt Minako begin to give loving attention to his lower region. The more he watched her, the more he felt himself grow with desire. Instead, with his eyes shut, he could feel Minako run her tongue from the very bottom of his knot to the very tip of his burning erection. With a giggle she started a path down front he tip and back to the knot showering the entire area with kisses. The sensation caused Shinn's toes to curl as he felt himself becoming lost to Minako's skilled mouth.

"Feel like telling me what I want to know?" Minako asked, giggling loudly at watching how Shinn was squirming. "Where is the Alpha cologne storehouse?"

"I can't…," Shinn groaned, unable to think clearly. He wanted to break the roleplay at the mention of the pheromone cologne Minako was obviously still investigating. Unfortunately, his beloved little Omega knew just how to push his buttons in a way which made it hard to think straight. "The big boss would kill me if I told you."

"Oh, you mean you're not the big boss?" Minako wondered before taking Shinn's cock as deep in her throat as possible before withdrawing it just as quickly. "I would have sworn anyone with this type of weapon was definitely the man in charge."

"I'll never talk, Sailor V," Shinn growled, getting into roleplay. He had become aware of an unchanging fact: When his Omega wanted to play it was better to go with the flow than even attempt to resist her. "There is no way I'll give away that information."

Shinn opened his eyes in time to see a devious look on Sailor V's face. Lowering her head, she took one more long drawn out kiss right in the center of his knot. Getting to her feet the heroine stood over her chained up Alpha, making sure he got a look of her soaked panty covered core.

"Looks like Sailor V is going to have to use her secret weapon," Minako announced as she reached behind her back. She lifted her skirt and reached into the back of her panties before pulling out the butt plug she had been wearing in a previous visit. "I'm going to be a little anal slut tonight."

"Wait!" Shinn gasped, realizing what Minako had in mind. "We're already doing bondage. Any more and I could go out of control."

"I know exactly what I'm doing," Sailor V stated as she pulled down her panties and threw them over her shoulder like an afterthought. "I'm giving my Alpha my last virginity this body has to offer."

Before Shinn could protest further. Minako squatted down, grabbed his hard rod, and lined it up at her tight puckered anus. Taking a deep breath, she allowed the tip of Shinn's hard cock to enter her ass and claim her last virgin entrance. Slowly, Minako sank onto her beloved Alpha's erection until her dainty cheeks kissed the top of his knot.

"FUCK!" Shinn hissed, as he pulled against the chains on the cuffs. The bedframe strained against the metal of the restraints but kept their hold on the Alpha. The feeling of Minako's tight ass was overwhelming. "You feel amazing!"

"Amazing? I'm the fucking Goddess of Love!" Sailor V announced as she began riding up and down with Shinn's cock tightly wedged in her ass. "I will defeat you, villain!"

"I won't give in…," Shinn whimpered as he tried to keep himself on task. The sensation of Minako's tight ass was making it hard for him to remain in control and keep his inner Alpha from taking over. Disrespectful Omega! Break the chains! Teach her there is the only one who can knot her! "Shit Mina-chan! I can't hold out…I'm losing control!"

"Can't' hold out? Then you won't be able to take this either," Minako giggled as bent forward and ripped open Shinn's shirt so she could run her hands all over his chest. Leaning back, she reached down and began to finger her wet flower as she began to double her pace bouncing on Shinn's cock. It was obvious she fully intended on releasing her nectar all over Shinn's body.

"Minako, please!" Shinn begged, feeling his body succumbing to Minako's pleasure. He wanted nothing more than to enjoy the feeling of his Omega's tight ass gripping knot and rod. He could fully see Minako intended on spraying him with her cum. Shinn was worried how his Alpha would react to this intense stimulation. "I don't think I can control myself anymore."

"I…I…," Minako moaned as she kept riding Shinn's manhood. She was lost in the overwhelming sense of pleasure to respond anymore. Especially as she began to feel Shinn's knot pulse and contract.

"AH!" Shinn roared as the sights and sensation of Minako riding him pushed him over the edge. He released his hot seed into her ass tugging on the cuffs around his wrists as the intense pleasure spread all over his body.

"SH-SHINN!" Minako screamed as the feeling of her beloved's cum filled her rectum. With this fresh intense warmth and her own stimulation on her genitals, Minako achieved her own raign orgasm. As she climaxed her slick burst from her core and coated Shinn's chest. She could feel her heart pounding hard as it tried to return to normal. "Oh…my Alpha…that was…OH!"

Minako was caught off guard and utterly surprised by the impossible. In the blink of an eye, Shinn broke the restraints, pushed Minako down, and once again began to drive deep into his beloved's ass.

"Shinn!" Minako gasped as her tender rectum was entered repeatedly. "What is wrong?"

Minako locked eyes with Shinn and saw a look she hadn't seen in a while. It was a blank expression but she could see the fire burning from deep within. It was the expression Shinn got when his Alpha took full control. The scent of her sweet nectar had triggered a rut.

"AHH!" Minko screamed as Shinn continued to hammer into her ass with wanton abandon. She had mated with him when he was in a much deeper and uncontrollable rut. This was simple in reaction to being restrained for too long. She knew she needed to help Shinn regain his control.

"Grrr," Shinn growled as grabbed Minako's shoulder and continued to plow her tight behind.

"Forgive me Alpha," Minako whimpered as she stared deep into Shinn's eyes. She knew she had to calm the Alpha's rage from provoked. She reached into her core, coated her fingers with slick, and rubbed it on Shinn's upper lip. Minako had made sure to concentrate and added a bit of her pheromones into it to convey her submission. "Omega is sorry. She was only trying to pleasure you."

"I am your Alpha!" Shinn roared as he kept thrusting hard into Minako's ass. "You are mine!"

"I am yours," Minako agreed, wrapping her legs around Shinn to pull him close. She moved her hands to Shinn's back and began to use her nails to stroke his tense muscles. "Let yourself go Alpha. Use your Omega to overcome your rut. Come back to me!"

"Minako…I…fuck!" Shinn howled, as he came again releasing a second hot load into Minako's ass. As the sensation of pleasure washed over him, he came to his senses, and began to breathe normally. "Minako, I…oh god, what have I done?"

"It's okay," Minako sighed, her ass tender from the pounding she had received. She was incredibly satisfied with what had just transpired.

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry," Shinn continued apologizing. "I lost control. For the first time in a while I…"

"It's okay," Minako whispered as she reached her hand up and stroked Shinn's face. She could see the stress on his face, afraid she had hurt her. "I just need a rest. Slowly pull up."

"Of course, I'll take care of you and fix this," Shinn insisted as she slowly pulled his knot out of Minako's tight bottom. Once he was out, he couldn't help notice how large his asshole had been stretched. "How does a hot, relaxing bath sound?"

Minako smiled and nodded. Getting off the bed, Shinn picked up his beloved, and carried her into the bathroom. After he drew her a bath Shinn stripped her of the remains of the Sailor V costume and helped her slide into the hot water of the tub.

"Again I'm sorry," Shinn apologized as he took a seat on the toilet as he watched Minako relax in the tub. He held onto the used pair of Minako's panties tight and kept smelling them using the pleasant smell to keep his rut from escalating.

"It's fine my love," Minako smiled as she relaxed in the tub. She was actually glad Shinn had been able to let loose for the first time in a while. Though it was best to keep a rut under control, she knew full well an Alpha had to have a way to release the built up te3nse in a healthy way to make sure he did lose absolute control. "I was made to take your punishment."

"But still I could have hurt you," Shinn admitted as he put down the panties and filled a glass by the stink and took a few large gulps of water."

"But you didn't and you made me feel amazing," Minako giggled as she leaned against the edge of the tub. "I actually forgot how fun anal can be."

"I love you," Shinn confessed as he finished his water and smiled at Minako in the tub. He wanted nothing more than to take any step necessary to ensure she would be a part of his life in the future. "And I'll do everything in my power to prove it."

"Anything?" Minako asked, with a devilish smile on his face. It was the look which alerted Shinn his beloved was plotting something.

"Of course my sweet vixen," Shinn confirmed, but arched his eyebrow. "Why? What do you have in mind?"

"Nothing much," Minako shrugged. "I just need you to be my manager."

"Huh?"

O.O.O

A/N: Another fic which features someone relaxing in the tub. I'll have to make sure not to use a tub anytime soon. Even though I'm pretty sure I wanted to use a hot tub in the near future. I'll try to spread things out moving forward.

I haven't forgotten about this series. I actually make it a point never to forget any of my series. Just when I have so much spread out it takes a bit to get everything up and written. Especially as I have a day job and all. My goal is to finish Choker of Love by the end of this year at the latest. At the same time I work on my other titles.

Thanks to my crew for Beta-ing this one. Reviews are love and will keep me coming back to write more smut.
