Mamezou lay on his back on the floor of the training hall panting hard.
"That's enough for today" Fawks announced with a huff.
"No…I have yet to master what you have taught me…" he sighed, pushing himself up on his forearms.
"We've been at this since dawn and it's already dinnertime, go eat something before you pass out…"
"I have to get stronger" Mamezou growled out. Fawks glared crossing her arms, "You already have"
"What are you babbling about?"
"You were able to hold your own in a fight against me, you weren't knocked unconscious and you didn't let me draw blood"
Mamezou blinked in surprise, Fawks turned her back on him, "You're a lot stronger then you give yourself credit for"
"You done playing with the pup?" Itnasha asked handing her a towel.
"He's not as bad as you make him seem. You just need to start as his pace and slowly get rougher" she shrugged, wiping the sweat from her face.
"You must have the patient of a saint to put up with his whining…" he grumbled.
"I basically tune it out. What's his deal with needing to get stronger anyway?"
"He's the bastard son of Sachiko's father, not only that he is the weakest of his clan. Even now he's still considered a beta but he wants to become one of Sessho-maru's main guard" Itnasha explained.
"Huh…I didn't even know Sessho-maru had a guard…"
"Yeah, we don't have much to do but we double as his generals"
"How many are there?"
"Only three. The other two hate you by the way"
"Who doesn't nowadays?" Fawks rolled her eyes.
"It's not for the reason you think, when were you going to tell me Sessho-maru made you a general?"
Fawks paused in her stride, "What?!"
"That's why they hate you, they think you're a lover of his he's trying to please"
"What the hell? I never asked for that! I've never even led an army before…"she began.
"I thought you asked him for this…"
"I asked to fight by his side not lead a damn army"
"Well you're in luck, Sho-kun just returned from wherever he went and is currently resting in your rooms"
"Great, I'm gonna go yell at him…!" Fawks announced, turning her back on Itnasha.
"You sure that's wise? I woke him once and he nearly killed me…" he began.
"The worst he'll do is jump me and lord knows we're both hurting for it" Fawks rolled her eyes.
Sessho-maru gave an annoyed groan as the door to his bedroom was thrown open with a loud thwack.
"…what is it now, Fawks-chan?"
Fawks blinked at him, she had never seen Sessho-maru look so utterly exhausted, he hadn't even bothered to change his clothes. He lay in bed, fully clothed, arm draped over his eyes.
"Where have you been?" she asked.
"Doing a final patrol of our lands…" he replied. Fawks anger drained from her and she huffed a sigh through her bangs. Sessho-maru lifted his arm, watching as she climbed into bed, straddling him.
"How are you gonna fight a war if being gone for a few days exhausts you?" she asked, sitting back of his stomach.
His only reply was an irritable grunt, Fawks leaned over him, sealing her lips over his. Sessho-maru growled as her youki filled him, strengthening his own. He easily flipped her underneath him, dominating her mouth with his tongue. He let her up for air, his lips becoming preoccupied with her neck.
He lifted her legs to wrap around his waist, grinding himself insistently between her legs.
"…I take it you're feeling better?" Fawks sighed, clenching her legs around him. Sessho-maru growled approvingly.
"Good…now we can talk about why I'm mad at you" her arctic tone put a halt on his libido and he lifted his head to meet her furious gaze.
"What I have I done to offend you now, beloved?" he raised an eyebrow
"You made me a general of your goddamn army" Fawks glared.
"Is there a problem with that?"
"Hell yes! I don't know the first thing about leading a damn army!" Fawks crossed her arms over her chest, adding to Sessho-maru's irritation.
"I can teach you"
"It's not that simple…"
"And why not?"
"Sessho-maru!"
"You are a beautiful, intelligent female, it will take you no time at all to learn all you need to know most of which you know already…" he said firmly. "You are able to make even the most prideful submit to you and you have incredible intuition, I would want no one else leading my men"
Fawks flushed, glancing away, "You passed over others to give me this 'gift'. I don't want favorable treatment"
"I wouldn't have given this to you if I didn't think you could do it better then Ginzo or Shinichiro" he replied.
"What if I don't do it better? What if I mess up?" Fawks began.
"You will do fine, beloved. As I've said, you intuition and ability to make others submit is basically all you need" Sessho-maru sighed, "When a male gives his mate such a gift, he is usually given some 'compensation' in return…"
"Is that the real reason you did this? So I'd suck your dick?" Fawks asked dryly.
"You make it sound so uncouth" he smirked.
"Fine…I guess you deserve it besides…" Fawks sighed, "But nothing more then that, I'm all sweaty…"
"Let me make you sweat more…" he growled, kissing her deeply. Fawks kissed him back, meeting his tongue enthusiastically. He tore open her Gii, tearing off her lower covering, Fawks moaned, pulling open his haori and loosening his hakamas. Clothing was tossed carelessly onto the floor until both were absolutely bare.
"Close your legs…" Sessho-maru growled. Fawks complied and Sessho-maru slid his erection through her clenched thighs, grinding his length against her sensitive cleft. He began to thrust and Fawks moaned pitifully.
"Sessh-kun…do it harder…make me feel it more…"
Sessho-maru pounded against her, his balls slapping her moistening core while the ridge of his erection teased her clit.
"…Fawks-chan…curse it all…I want to be inside you…" he growled.
"Me too…Sessh-kun…! I want you to…fuck me hard…!"
Sessho-maru sped up his thrusts, panting like the dog he was, Fawks bit her lip focusing on the climax slowly building in the pit of her stomach. She had grown so used to Sessho-maru's rough, passionate lovemaking that she was having a hard time finding release from such timid stimulation.
Sessho-maru kissed her desperately, twining his tongue around hers, his own release steadily approaching. He drew on her tongue sending her tumbling into her energetically pursued orgasm. Fawks threw her head back in a breathy moan, fisting the sheets. Sessho-maru followed after her with a tough grunt, his seed spurting over her stomach and heaving breasts.
Fawks' legs went slack and Sessho-maru moved off of her to lay beside her.
"…I can't wait til you can fuck me for real…" she commented.
"Hn…"
