I won't leave you hanging any longer, lovelies, and I won't keep you with my rants, aside from one mention. If Kurama seems a bit more prone to playing and generally just savoring the moment in this chapter, from what you imagine he would behave like, it's because deep down foxes are quite playful animals. And, whether we like it or not, Kurama IS a fox in the end; yes, a fox demon,but a fox nonetheless. So enjoy this new chapter and, as always, look forward to the next one ;)

And don't forget to feed the muse too, she loves your reviews so much~ :D

P.S. All YuYu Hakusho characters belong to Yoshihiro Togashi~ :)

8. One desire

Her gaze had dimmed by now and she failed to see the smirk playing on his lips.

"It'll only feel better from here on."

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Some moments later, when he finally withdrew his hand, Nozomi was almost breathless. Once her gaze cleared up somewhat she realized he had been waiting for her to focus again, before he sensuously trailed his tongue along one of his fingers.

"This is the first time I've seen a woman climax just from my hand." he stated with a mischievous smile. "If this weren't your first time, I would have already had you orgasm on my erection."

Chuckling at her concerned gaze, he swallowed her taste from his mouth and leaned to briefly kiss her.

"Don't worry... you taste wonderful."

"Then... what do you... taste like?"

Momentarily taken aback by her question, he then leaned down and nuzzled her cheek with a content sigh.

"I'll let you give it a try next time. I have so much to teach you..."

And he would take so much delight from teaching her all that he knew. But for now, he needed some way to give her a break and let her body settle down a bit.

"Can you sit up?" he asked, taking her hand.

Nodding, Nozomi moved to her knees not even bothering to cover herself when the yukata slid apart from the lack of a sash to hold it together. Yes, he'd told her that she shouldn't show her body to just any man... but he wasn't just any man.

"I'll give you a short break, so why don't you try to undress me?"

After all, making love involved both of them and she needed to grow accustomed to what the body of a male felt like. Sitting back on his heels, he placed his hands on his thighs for now, giving her the freedom to do as she pleased. Hesitantly Nozomi moved closer, lightly gulping before she mustered the courage to reach for his waist and undo his sash. She wouldn't deny that curiosity was by now boiling inside her; she hadn't really gotten a good look at his body that night at the lake so she was quite eager to be able to see what he looked like beneath those silky clothes. When his yukata fell apart revealing his sculptural torso, she couldn't hold back from reaching out and trailing her fingertips along his chest.

"They're... so hard..."

It felt as if he had rocks beneath his skin, not muscles. With an impish chuckle Kurama discarded his footwear before once more settling down while Nozomi now trailed her hands along his shoulders until he moved his arms to help her get his yukata off.

"I'll let you in on a secret..." he said, once more grasping her hand.

When he placed her palm over his left pectoral muscle, the girl was startled to feel his heart racing almost as fast as hers. For a second she stared at him in disbelief; how could he act so calmly when his heart said he was about as nervous as she was? Was that the cool gained through experience? For a reason she couldn't point out, she felt almost compelled to place her other palm onto his chest as well, caressing his smooth skin before she leaned in to place a kiss over his heart.

"I'm... not afraid... because it's you." she whispered.

Kissing the side of her head in return, Kurama merely smiled into her hair.

"Good girl."

Moving away from her he now stood so as to allow his pants to drop to the floor. Stepping out of them he brought Nozomi to her feet as well. Once her own pants had slid down her frame, he leaned to kiss her while swiftly removing her yukata and discarding it as well. Without the constraints of clothing he could finally relish in the sensation of skin-on-skin contact when he wrapped his arms around her, pressing their bodies together. With Nozomi wrapping her arms around his neck, he grasped her thighs and spread her legs around his waist before settling onto his knees with the girl on his lap. It was astounding... he was already fully erect and she hadn't even touched his manhood. He was actually curious to find out what other effects she could have on him, but that would be left for another time. For now he once again started moving his hips, this time rubbing his erection directly against her dripping lower lips.

"My Nozomi..." he whispered in her ear on a deep tone.

Blinking at that, the girl now realized that he was making a play on words, given the significance of her name. Yes, if she was his one desire, then she wanted to be his forever. Tightening her hold on him to some extent, she placed a kiss onto his shoulder while caressing his upper back amidst his silvery strands.

"Nozomi, I said this will feel better... but it will hurt at first."

He felt it fair to warn her; after all he didn't want her freaking out and stopping him.

"I trust you..." she smiled. "I'm more afraid of thunder than I am of this."

Offering a smile of his own at her slightly jesting tone, he placed a loving kiss to her forehead. When he buried his golden eyes into hers, the girl felt for a moment as if he was trying to put her into a trance.

"What... what should I do?" she asked.

"Relax... I'll do the rest for now."

Reaching in between them he grasped his member and deftly placed the slick tip against her folds, which instead caused the girl to press her nails against his shoulders.

"Try not to bloody me up too bad."

It was the only thing he said before pressing his free hand onto her thigh to make her lower her hips. Once the head was inside, he reached around her waist and grasped her rump, swiftly lowering her onto his erection. With his heightened senses it wasn't hard for him to tell the exact moment when he deflowered her, even before the blood started dripping onto his groin. He did cease all motion for now after that move, however, not just because of her painful moan but to give her body time to fight off the pain and reignite her pleasure.

"It'll go away soon... and you won't feel this kind of pain ever again." he said softly whilst gingerly stroking her hair as she panted against his neck, her body trembling in his arms.

Finally after a few minutes he felt her thighs gaining a bit of slack as they pressed against his hips. He was actually a bit reluctant to start moving again... just staying inside her like that already felt incredible. And given how tightly she was wrapped around his erection he wondered if he could even go as long as he usually did. Still, he settled for a slow, shallow pace for the moment so she could gradually get used to the sensations the act itself was imposing on her body. Not too long afterwards he found it utterly impossible to hold back a groan.

"Does it... feel good?"

His ear twitched at the lewd tone in her voice, but he smiled and buried his face against her neck.

"You're the best, Nozomi..." he muttered before lightly biting into the soft flesh there and sucking on it with the clear intention of leaving a mark behind.

"Then... I'm happy... Kurama..."

A shudder rolled along his spine when her warm breath carried his name to his ears, and his erection twitched inside her. Leaning back just enough to see her face, he claimed her lips for a passionate kiss, his thrusts growing fuller and faster whilst he squeezed her slender frame against him. Yes, she was indeed the best... and he couldn't imagine bedding any other woman ever again, even if his life depended on it. Before he even fully realized it, he had leaned forward until he felt her body had settled onto the flooring of his tent, ending up on top of her with his chest rubbing against hers, the sweat of his abs allowing his stomach to slide up and down hers to the tune of his now deeper and ever so slightly harder movements. Then, he moaned into the girl's mouth, thoughtlessly parting their lips together to enter her mouth with his tongue.

The sound of his moan sent a wave of soft warmth through her chest while she yielded to his lips, her mouth eagerly welcoming his tongue. Was he really enjoying it? It felt good to know he found her satisfying and that he enjoyed her body. Her tongue shyly moved to its counterpart while her folds tightened out of reflex, even though she was already quite tight due to his size, to further increase his pleasure. Locking her legs around his waist she fully abandoned herself to his will. Though his mind hadn't been in it, his body instinctively knew after all those centuries that such a sudden movement would serve to lodge him deeper inside her. Feeling her cervix, he took note of her reaction and smiled into the heated kiss, letting the head of his member caress it. While it seemed to be an opening to go deeper inside her, it would be a tight fit, and there was no guarantee that it wouldn't hurt her more than the initial penetration.

With her body nearing climax, her muscles gained tension which in turn forced her legs to press against his rump as though she was urging him to go deeper. Her tongue had gained courage, as displayed by the hunger in her kiss, while she tightened her embrace forcing his chest to rub against hers to the point where her breasts had slightly started hurting. Kurama allowed her to direct him then even though it was the first time he'd ever gone that deep. With his tip against her cervix, he pushed until it opened, his massive head spreading open her womb. Was she more sensitive there...? He did hope so, his thrusts gaining somewhat of a rough edge as he moaned for her. Now, even with his concentration on the kiss, he could hear a moist slapping noise from their meeting groins, his pleasure building into something unfamiliar.

Almost screaming in his mouth she sank her nails into his flesh when she felt her small womb stretching and molding along the form of his member. The overwhelming pleasure threw her right in the midst of a second orgasm, tears overflowing from under her tightly closed eyelids while the rest of her body shuddered underneath Kurama. She'd never imagined such pleasure could exist... such pleasure that it left her almost breathless. Her own climax, however, merely served as a final push over the edge for the fox-youkai as well. Grunting harshly into the kiss, he roughly thrust forward until he felt the tip of his erection spearing the very back of her womb, just moments before his seed erupted inside her with such sheer force that it astounded even him. Before he could even realize that the thick warmth was now traveling along the exterior of his shaft, he felt his semen spraying back onto his groin mixed with her own body's lubricant, due to the tightness of her inner muscles.

Finally pulling from the kiss, even he felt compelled to heave for air. That... had been wonderful on a level he had never imagined. Though he wanted nothing more than to just lay down onto her, he placed his hands to her cheeks, wiping off the sweat which made her skin glisten whilst she inhaled as deeply as she could, to settle down her body's need for air. When she was able to look up at him again, he merely smiled lovingly.

"You're mine forever... and I'll never have another woman in my bed so long as I live."

It was actually something he'd never said before, not even to Amaya. Nodding silently, Nozomi found that his words made her so happy that she felt like crying. Before she could think of a reply, Kurama leaned down with an utterly satisfied sigh and settled onto her body, his weight and warmth making her smile as she caressed his back.

"Oh, my love... you have no idea how long I've been waiting for you." he muttered, prior to kissing her cheek.

What could she say to that? Were there even any words fit for such a statement?

"I love you..."

It had really come out before she'd even realized it. However, the faint awkward feeling was dispelled when he leaned back so that she could see his warm smile and the content gleam in his golden eyes. It was an expression she'd never before seen on his face, but one she wanted to keep seeing for as long as possible.

"I never believed I'd ever say it again to any woman, but I do love you Nozomi. No matter what happens, never doubt that my heart belongs to you."

He couldn't and wouldn't run from his own feelings anymore... not when he'd finally found the woman worthy of having his heart as well, not just his body.
