Erza layed on her back on the ground, Natsu lying on his side beside her as they shared a sweet, gentle kiss. Natsu started playing with the blue ribbon attached to Erza's white blouse, curling the ribbon around his index finger and pulling it off with his thumb, repeating that over and over again. Erza had her hands tangled in Natsu's salmon locks, once again surprised at how soft his hair was despite it being spiky.
They pulled apart for air, panting hard as Natsu rested his head in the crook of Erza's neck, his hair tickling her nose and his body that was half lying over her filling her with warmth as she continued to play with his hair.
"What time do you think it is?" Natsu asked.
"I say around one o'clock in the morning," Erza sighed. A faint chuckle escaped her lips. "We're probably going to get into trouble for sneaking out."
"Nah, it's not strange for me to sneak out," Natsu chuckled. "Zeref-Nii learnt to stop questioning me when I leave at night because I never gave him a clear answer."
"Where did you go?" Erza asked, tracing Natsu's collarbone underneath the red leather jacket. Natsu laughed suddenly, making Erza think she had found a place where Natsu was ticklish but she realised he was laughing at a thought running through his head.
"I don't exactly remember," Natsu admitted. He rolled on top of Erza and kissed her again, but Erza pushed his shoulders, pushing him away from her slightly.
"Don't try and distract me from my question Natsu," Erza teased. "How about answer this question for me. Tell me about yourself."
"About myself?" Natsu asked, thinking hard. "Hmm ... I'm four hundred and thirty two years old."
"Demon or human?" Erza asked.
"I was born as a human four hundred and thirty two years ago," Natsu says, leaning down and placing a kiss on Erza's clavicle. "And I've been a demon for four hundred and eleven years. I was dead for twenty one years to say the least."
Natsu started fiddling with the ribbon again. This time he undid it and pulled it off slowly, the ribbon whispering against the fabric of the blouse and casting it off to the side. Natsu attacked Erza's neck again, trailing firey kisses up her neck to nibble behind her ear, causing Erza to gasp.
"How ... did you ... die?" Erza asked between moans, tilting her head to the side to give Natsu better access. Natsu paused and looked at Erza with hard eyes.
"Let's not worry about that now," he sighs. "It'll completely ruin the mood."
He started fingering the blouse's buttons. Slowly he begun to undo the buttons, one after the other, and pulled the blouse apart to reveal Erza's black bra. Erza wasn't always self-conscious of her body - she knew she was beautiful and could have any man she wanted and took to wearing the provocative attire in her battle re-quip armour - but lying here underneath Natsu as he started kissing her neck again, trailing kissing down her throat to her breastbone, Erza couldn't help the blush from spreading across her cheeks.
"You smell nice," Natsu commented, kissing her navel.
Erza flinched, thinking about one of the men obsessed with her, Ichiya. Whenever they saw each other Ichiya would always say, "oh princess, your parfum smells as wonderful as ever" and he always pronounced perfume weird. Ichiya and his annoying exceed friend Nichiya were the only men that made Erza uneasy, causing Erza to attack him and that stupid cat every time she saw him.
It seemed now that Natsu had the same effect on her.
Although she wouldn't attack him every time she saw him. Well, maybe crush his face into her breasts. Erza giggled at the naughty thought. Giggled. So unlike Erza!
"What are you giggling at?" Natsu asked, grinning at her.
"Oh, nothing."
Erza cupped Natsu's cheeks and pulled him to her, kissing him with a force that would cause even a player to faint. Natsu gasped in surprise at the gesture, tangling his hands in her hair and pushing her down onto her back. Natsu rested his hands on either side of Erza's head and matched her fierceness, moving down her chin to her neck and down her sternum. Erza's back arched off the mattress as Natsu kissed between her breasts and down to her navel.
"Natsu ~" Erza moaned, flipping them over so that Natsu was lying on his back. Erza unzipped the jacket and pulled it off, running her hands over his chiseled chest, kissing down his stomach like Natsu did to her. Their heavy breathing and shaky moans filled the air as they shared kisses on their lips or somewhere else on each other's body.
They had completely removed all their clothes at some point. Erza pulled Natsu closer to her, trying to get at least some friction on her body and wrapped her legs around Natsu's hips, pushing him closer to her.
"Take me," Erza breathed against his mouth, taking him by surprise. Natsu pulled away from where he was nibbling her collarbone and stared down at her. She could see the lust reflected in his onyx eyes, knew that the same lust was reflected in her own brown eyes.
"Are you sure?" Natsu asked, his voice hoarse. Erza nodded, sure of herself. She knew that she'll give herself to this man, both her body and her soul. She'll let Natsu taint her with his darkness and she taint Natsu with her light.
Natsu leaned down and kissed her again, his hands trailing down to her breasts and cupped them. Erza cried out with a hint of a chuckle as she thought that if it were a different man he won't live to see another day.
Natsu leaned down and licked the left nipple, sucking it into his mouth and at the same time messaging the right one. Natsu enjoyed every moan that came out of Erza, each one growing louder as he went at it faster, switching every now and then so that each of Erza's breats got the same treatment as the other.
"Nngh ... your mouth is so talented Natsu," Erza moaned, pulling Natsu's head away from her bust to kiss him. "So are your fingers. Why don't you use them for something else?"
Natsu tilted his head to the side, wondering what Erza was talking about. Erza took his hand and guided it down her body towards the heat between her legs and pushed herself down on his finger. Erza gasped as Natsu's finger slid up her and let go of Natsu's hand to clutch at his back. Natsu loved the feeling around his finger, warm and wet with arousal. Natsu curled his finger, brushing against something deep down inside her that caused Erza to cry out in intense pleasure. Natsu smirked and hit that spot again and again, adding another finger as he thrusted his fingers, curling them against her sweet spot over and over again.
"N-N-Natsu!" Erza moaned, her body shuddering with pleasure.
Natsu suddenly withdrew his fingers, causing Erza to groan from the sudden loss, and Natsu got down on his stomach in between her legs, pushing her legs further apart. Natsu licked her entrance, loving her taste, and sucked on the clits, licking up Erza's juices. Erza was a moaning mess under him, filling Natsu with pride that it was him who was causing her to moan like that.
Wishing to hear more Natsu thrust his tongue into her, swirling his tongue around the wet walls and pulled back out to suck on the clits again. Erza wrapped her legs around Natsu's head and pulled him closer to her centre, wanting him to go deeper. Natsu thrusted his tongue in her as deep as it could go, licking up her walls and savouring Erza's taste.
Suddenly Erza pulled him away from her centre and gently pushed him onto his back and straddled his thighs, resting her knees on either side of his hips. Erza caressed Natsu's chest as she leaned forward and kissed his right pectoral, kissing left to the left one and then kissed down his chest to his navel. Erza moved down to his aching shaft and kissed the head, gently mouthing down the veined length and back up.
"Let me pleasure you now Natsu," Erza whispered, taking the head into her mouth, swirling her tongue around the head and over the slit. Natsu cried out at the sudden heat around him and he grasped her head and subconsciously bucked his hips up. Erza pulled off of him and pushed back his hips. "Let me do all the work, just lay back and relax."
It wasn't easy but Natsu tried to keep still. Erza took him into her mouth again and slid down the throbbing shaft, taking him as far as she could go. Her soft fingers stroked whatever wouldn't fit in her mouth as she bobbed her head, pulling up and sucking on the head before ramming down on him again, devouring him, ravaging him and possessing him fully. Natsu cried out in pleasure and a new smell filled the air and Natsu realised it was his own pre-cum which Erza gulped down, enjoying the bitter taste that was Natsu.
"E-E-Erza, I-I-I'm gonna ... nnngh ... cum," Natsu cried out.
Erza suddenly pulled off his erection, causing Natsu to cry out protests and Erza smirked down at him.
"I don't want you to cum just yet," she purred.
Erza grabbed Natsu's erection firmly and positioned the head against her entrance. Bracing herself with her hand against Natsu's chest she rammed herself down. They both moaned, Erza at the filling going deep inside her and Natsu at the wet walls clenching around him. Erza placed her other hand on Natsu's chest and rocked her hips up around and pulled up until only the head was left in her and rammed down again.
Natsu extended his arm and stroked Erza's cheek as she rode him, his touch gentle compared to Erza's fierce movements. Erza leaned into his touch and kissed his palm and cried out when she thrusted his shaft up against a bundle of nerves that made her see stars.
Natsu pushed Erza onto her back and kissed her as he rammed into her in a new position, going deeper and harder. Erza moaned into Natsu's mouth as he pulled his shaft out to the tip and rolled his hips forward, penetrating her deeper.
Natsu set up a pace, thrusted into her deeper and faster, pulling her legs over his shoulders. Erza threw her head back and cried out as Natsu rammed into her harder and faster with each thrust, possessing her deeper. They both knew they were both near their peak. Erza cried out a crescendo as she hit her orgasm, her walls clenching around Natsu tight.
"Naaaaaaattttsssuuu!" Erza cried out, her voice echoing throughout the cave.
Natsu closed his eyes right and thrusted in hard and long and gushed out, filling Erza up to the brim, screaming her name as he rocked through his own orgasm.
Erza's eyes opened wide at the sight before her. Natsu had shifted into his Etherious form, his horns standing up tall and proud on each side of his head and his wings expanded to their full length. But they weren't made out of fire like before but were leathery, like a true dragon, with shimmering colours of green, blue and purple along them, shining like diamonds. Erza had never seen anything so beautiful in her life, her eyes wide as she stared at the mesmerising sight in front of her.
Natsu collapsed on top of her, shifting back into his human form and resting against her breast, his breathing hard. Erza stroked her fingers through Natsu's sweaty hair, sighing in happiness and kissing his scalp.
"I love you," she whispered.
Natsu looked up at her and pecked her lips and pulled out of her.
"I love you too," he whispered, closing his eyes and was instantly asleep.
Erza smiled a peaceful smile and closed her eyes too, and she too were asleep.
Erza woke up to absolute bliss.
She was lying across Natsu's chest, Natsu's calm breathing the only sounds that could be heard in the small cave. Erza listened to Natsu's heartbeat, enjoying the precious ba-thump, ba-thump with a happy sigh. She couldn't stop thinking about what had happened between them. Their love had only grown last night, had become stronger and more beautiful than before. This wasn't like the smutty books she secretly read under the candlelight in her chambers. This was real, pure bliss. Something that couldn't be captured perfectly in writing.
Natsu had looked truly mesmerising last night. During their climax he had unconsiously shifted into his Etherious form, his wings extending to their full length. But instead of being made out of flames like when they first met they had sparkled as if they had been covered in diamonds, blue, red, green and purple light mixed together coming from his wings. He had looked more like an angel than a demon in that blissful moment, truly mesmerising. Erza wondered if that would happen every time during their passionate moments like that one.
Erza leaned up and gazed at Natsu's face, taking in everything about him and memorising his appearance. He looked so peaceful, his salmon locks falling across his forehead which was glistened with sweat, the sensual curve of his lips that Erza was compelled to kiss. Natsu, probably sensing her eyes on him, stirred slightly, his eyelids opening to reveal the onyx eyes that captivated Erza every time she looked into them.
"Morning," Natsu yawned, not bothering to cover his mouth and giving her a clear view of his sharp canines. They weren't as sharp as his teeth became in his Etherious form, but they were sharper than regular human's teeth. Erza found herself fingering his teeth, causing Natsu to flinch in surprise.
"Wha' are you 'oing?" Natsu asked, his words muffled from having his mouth opened and not closing to speak properly.
"I'm just surprised how sharp your teeth are," Erza admitted, pulling her hands away from his mouth.
"Really? It's a Dragon Slayer thing," Natsu admitted, running his tongue over his canines. "We take on the characteristics of a dragon: sharp teeth, a keen sense of smell, etc. I'm more like a dragon than the other Dragon Slayers: my Etherious form looks like an actual dragon. Well, apart from Acknowledger, who can turn into a dragon. An ugly-ass dragon at that."
"Why do you call him that?" Erza asked.
"When I was younger I had trouble saying his name properly and took to calling him that," Natsu told her, circling his finger around her bare shoulder, causing her to shiver under the gentle touch. "I can pronounce it easily now but I still call him 'Acknowledger' to stir him up."
"You are one sassy man Natsu," Erza teased. Then Erza remembered something that Natsu told her to do last night and decided to question him about it "By the way, why did you make me think up a fake name? I don't mind being called Erza Knightwalker - it sounds quite cool really - but why?"
"Incase when we send letters to each other and someone else that isn't us reads it they won't exactly know it's us," Natsu explains. "When you send me a letter sign it 'Knightwalker' and I'll sign mine 'Dragion'. Plus, if we ever meet in disguise, try and come up with a personality that's opposite to your own."
"Hmm, like an opposite counterpart?" Erza asked.
"Yeah ... like an opposite counterpart."
Erza yawned and stretched her arms above her head as Natsu sat up and reached for his flame print boxers. Erza raised her eyebrows at that.
"Flame print? Really?"
Natsu's face flushed as he struggled to pull the boxers on, Erza giggling at his expression. She stood up and walked over to Natsu who was pulling his pants on, and wrapped her arms around his bare chest. Natsu flushed at the feeling of her breasts pressed into his back.
"You're not going to leave me in here are you?" Erza teased.
"Even if I wanted to I wouldn't be able to leave; we need each other to get out too," Natsu answered.
"That's not really fair, is it?" Erza smirked. Natsu chuckled and went to find the rest of his clothes.
"We need to get back to our rightful places before it gets too suspicious," Natsu says. "Get changed."
"I don't need to get changed," Erza grins. A flash of yellow light illuminated the cave and Natsu hesitantly looked over his shoulder to see Erza dressed in what she had been wearing last night and realised that the clothes that she had taken off last night were no longer on the ground.
"What? Did you think I had thousands of the same clothes?" Erza asked, noticing Natsu's look.
"I didn't know you could re-quip actual clothes."
"You thought that re-quip was only for armour?" Erza asked.
"Yes," Natsu admitted.
Erza laughed and took Natsu's hand, pulling him towards the entrance of the cage.
"C'mon, let's go."
"Good morning princess," the many maids greet Erza as she walked out of her room, standing against the wall as Erza walked passed them. "King Makarov wishes to see you in the throne room!"
Erza tried to hide her nervousness as she nodded to the maids and headed for the throne room. Did her father suspect what happened last night between her and Natsu? Did he somehow know that Erza snuck out.
Erza walked into the throne room where King Makarov was sitting on top of a table beside a map, holding his staff. Gray was also in the room (fully clothed, too!), leaning against the wall and looking like he was going to fall asleep. Erza was surprised to see Lucy, looking fierce with the Fairy Tail emblem on the back of her right hand and a tattoo on her left arm; and Juvia Lockster, Princess of the Water People, who was too busy staring at Gray with sparkling eyes to pay much attention to anything else.
"Erza," King Makarov sighs. "It seems that Pantherlily has betrayed us."
Erza froze, not expecting that. "What do you mean?"
"He's gone to Alvarez's side," Makarov says, jumping off the table and turning to the window beside the table. "So I did some research on Alvarez and Emperor Spriggan and found out something interesting: Spriggan is actually the Black Wizard Zeref."
Erza already knew that but pretended to be as surprised as Gray and Lucy (Juvia was still staring at Gray and not paying attention to anything).
"And I've also learnt that Zeref's only weakness is his younger brother, who is also the demon E.N.D. as you probably already know," Makarov went on.
"The demon that bit me and killed my mother?" Lucy asked, cracking her fists. "I'll rip his head off with my bare hands."
"Woah, wouldn't want to get on that woman's bad side," Gray says, sounding impressed.
"Love rival," Juvia hissed.
"So I've decided that the four of you will be going on a mission," Makarov says, turning to the four of them. "There is this crystal on Tenrou Island called the Teneou Jade. Legend says that if you crush it and cover a sword in it it'll kill any demon, including E.N.D. I want you to go retrieve that jade."
"We will not fail," Gray says with a devilish smirk.
"Put some clothes on!" Lucy shouted, punching him in the cheek and causing Juvia to lash out at her, the two girls starting a cat fight. Gray rubbed his cheek and looked down to see that he had unconsiously stripped again.
"Ah! Where are my clothes!" Gray yelled, looking around desperatly. Makarov sighs and looks at Erza.
"Erza, I trust you the most so I'll give you the task of killing E.N.D. Would you be able to do that?"
Erza gulped and nodded hesitantly, sweat dropping.
"O-of c-course," she stutters. Makarov nodded and went to try and break up the fight between Lucy and Juvia. Erza turned away so that they wouldn't be able to see the tears forming in her eyes.
How was she supposed to kill Natsu after what happened between them?
