It was late night when it knocked on the door to Zaraki Rai's house in Karakura Town. She thought it was odd, but went to open anyway. It was Ikkaku and Yumichika from the 11th squad
- What are you doing here, she asked as she let them in.
- We were sent here together with Hitsugaya-taichou and Matsumoto-fukutaichou to keep the arrancar attacks at bay, and we need somewhere to stay, Yumichika explained.
- Sure thing that you can stay, she said smilingly. Are there more comming from Soul Society?
- Nope, we're all here now. By the way, how can you afford a house like this?
- It seems, she laughed, that my father never had me declared dead, just missing and when I came back I inherited a lot of money and I work a little extra as a nurse at a local veterinarian.
She yawned sleepily.
- Now, gentlemen, she continued, I'll be going to bed. Please make yourselves at home. There's food in the fridge, beds upstairs and the bathroom is behind the door under the staircase.
Next morning was a sunny Saturday and Ikkaku and Yumichika found Rai sitting in the garden eating breakfast wearing a luxuriously looking silk morning gown.
- Ohioh, she said, I made some breakfast for you, it's on the kitchen counter.
- Thanks, but no thanks, Yumichika declined, but I think it's better me and Ikkaku get going to meet the others at the shop.
Rai nodded and the 2 men left. When she was done eating she went inside, got dressed and went out for a walk. She enjoyed the early october air and somewhere, deep in her brain, she wished she had someone to share it with.
Later that evening a call about arrancar sighting came and she went out to watch the fight. It ended brutally and bloodily, but it seemed that Orihime could handle healing them all. Rai smiled and went back home. She was just going into the bath when Yumichika entered.
- I'm so very sorry, he said, but it seems that me and Ikkaku left our gigais here and I'm here to pick them up.
- Ofcourse, she smiled, I'm going into the bath now, just tell me when you're leaving.
Yumichika nodded and stated for himself that when Rai smiled she was scarily alike Unohana-taichou. That smile could hide so much.
Rai had been in the bath for about 5 minutes when the doorbell rang. For fuck's sake, she thought.
- Yumi-chan, she yelled, will you please get the door, I'm a bit indisposed.
She heard the door open and some muffled voices. She couldn't hear what was being said, but she was sure Yumichika would come to her if it was something important. She heard the door close again and a few moments later Yumichika announced that he was going. Rai slipped further into the water, only eyes and nose above the waterline, her blue hair floating on the surface. She had her back against the door, which was open, and she suddenly realised that there was something blocking the light from the livingroom. She turned her head to look over her shoulder and found a person standing in the doorway.
The silhouette was big, broad and blissfully familiar.
- Kenpachi, she said, it's not appropriate to surprise a lady in the bath.
- Tell me where that lady is and I'll apologize.
Rai grinned and threw a wet sponge at him. It hit him in the face and soaked it and made her giggle.
- What are you doing here then? Did you come to kill me?
- I'm here to deliver some orders to Ikkaku and Yumichika. Mind helping me showing the way to the store where Yumichika told me they would be?
- Is it urgent?
- Not really, no.
- Good, she said, then you can help me fix my hair.
She sat down on the floor, her back against him. He squatted down behind her and took the brush laying on a shelf beside him. He carefully undid all the tangles and finished it all by braiding her hair in two, not unlike SoiFon's hair. When he was done he ran his fingers along her naked back.
- OK, she said, let me get dressed and we can get going.
It was crowded in the store. All the shinigamis and Ichigo and company was there and Ichigo flew to his feet as he saw the big taichou and Rai enter.
- Chill, Kenpachi told him, I'm not here to fight. Atleast not now.
He handed the orders to Ikkaku.
- By the way Ikkaku, weren't you dead?
- Nah, it was Yumichika who were a bit over enthusiastic about the thoughness of my opponent.
- What a shame. I was so happy that you were dead.
- Can't always get what you want.
- True, Kenpachi said and they left again.
When they walked back Rai noticed a slight unease in Kenpachis strides.
- Something wrong, Ken-chan?
- It's this stupid gigai, it's so stiff and clumsy.
- It'll loosen up soon, she said.
They were quiet for some time.
- Can I ride on your back, she timidly asked.
- Rai, you don't even have to ask.
She squealed delighted and climbed up his back, resting her arms on his right shoulder. She nibbled his ear.
- So you can do that in public here, he asked.
- Not really. Well you can, as long as noone sees you.
He nodded thoughtfully and then halted.
- Did you feel that?
- Yes, Rai answered. Hollow!
Kenpachi started running and they found the hollow in a park close by, trying to eat a kid's soul. Before Kenpachi even begun to get out of his gigai Rai had wiped out the hollow from the face of earth.
- Hey kid, she said. I'm Rai. Are you all alone?
- Yes, he sniveled, my mommy is gone and I can't find her.
- I see. Well, I can show you a place where she might be. It's called Soul Society. Want to give it a try? It won't hurt, I promise.
Rai placed her palm on the kid's forehead.
- Take care, she said as the hellbutterfly fluttered away.
She got back into her body.
- I so wish I could eat those hollows and show them the terror their victims felt just before they got eaten, she muttered. To attack a child! How cowardly.
She was upset. She turned around and banged her fist into Kenpachi's hard chest.
- There, she said. All better.
- It's about 2 or 3 am, she continued looking up at the moon. I think we better go to bed. There's alot to be done tomorrow.
- Like what?
- You'll see, she said smilingly.
It was warm and Rai slept naked, ass in air and one of Kenpachi's hands on it.
He woke up the next morning of Rai sitting astride his chest dripping something cold in his face. She was dressed in her favourite morning gown, the one she had worn so many times in Seireitei.
- What, he grumbled.
- The bath is ready and after breakfast awaits, she handed him a gown. Let's get going!
They sat across eachother in the tub. The whole room smelled of lemongrass.
- Come here, Kenpachi said and Rai moved over to his side.
She sat in his lap and he started massaging her shoulders. In the milky water he could not see her hands, but he could feel them moving.
- Rai, are you doing what I think you're doing?
- What do you think I'm doing then?
- I think you're having your hands in a place where they shouldn't be.
She gave him a guilty look and he laughed.
- Got you there, didn't I?
- Don't look so sullen, he continued, I have something in mind for you today.
And what a sinister thing he had come up with. All day he teased her, licking and biting her neck, touching her in places he knew were sensitive and he even went so far that he stuck 2 fingers up her pussy while they were out shopping. Later that evening, as Rai was preparing some lychees and melon for a late evening snack, he bent her over the counter, pulled down her panties and started eating her out. She cursed at him, but stood still. She was so damn horny she would let him do whatever he wanted aslong as he would fuck her in the end. Again, this was one of their games. He loved to dominate her and it got him turned on, knowing how much she hated it. As sudden as he had started he stopped and Rai decided that this was enough.
- I want it and I want it now! And you're going to give it to me, she declared.
She grabbed his belt and dragged him upstairs to the master bedroom. He laid down on the bed.
- Strip for me! If you want anything from me, you better work for it.
She sighed, put on some music and started stripping. She mused over the sight of him stroking himself watching her, but that amusement soon went away. As she took off her panties he shot his load over his stomach. Rai got furious. She jumped him and started beating him. Fist against face. Crimson blood against white sheets. She could see him grin and she could feel him getting hard again.
- I got you again, he growled and threw her off him and pinned her down.
His blood dripped down into her face.
- And now, he said, I want you to lick up the blood you coated my face in.
And she did. She licked his forehead, his cheekbones, his lips, she traced the small lines of blood down his troath. As she did so, his hand was down between her legs, 2 fingers inside her pussy. She knew he was ready, he was just waiting. Sometimes he would keep her waiting for 5 minutes, sometimes 30. It was all up to him. Luckily for her, she didn't have to wait long.
- I guess you're ready, he whispered into her ear.
She felt his fingers removed and replaced with his dick which he pressed against her opening and the slowly slid into her. When he was about halfway in he did one fast thrust and buried himself all down to the bottom of her and she screamed. He had a very rough style and she loved it. If the pleasure was bordering on pain, she was happy. He kept on banging into her and she felt herself getting closer and closer to an orgasm, fast. Sadly, she always gave away when she was about to come by digging her nails into his troath and when he noticed her doing so he stopped. He rolled over so Rai ended up on top, he put his hand on her ass so he could regulate her pace. If she wasn't quick enough or didn't let him in as deep as he wanted he would slap her. And so she began riding him, slow and deep first and then faster and faster. His grip on her ass was tight and would leave marks after his nails. Then he did something he had never done before. He let her suck his middlefinger which he then slid into her ass. She stopped momentarily in surprise.
- Oh, come on, he chidded, I know you like this.
- Bastard!
She didn't want to admit it, but fact was that she liked it and she liked it alot. She rode him harder, letting him hit the bottom of her everytime he went in. He felt her nails once again assaulting his throath and he pushed her off him.
- Now what? She sounded angry
- On your knees!
- What?
- Get on your knees, he said and smacked her ass to get her going.
As he entered her from behind she moaned loudly. She had always been the quiet type and if he could get her to sound up it would be another score for him. He kept on thrusting, making her moan everytime he hit bottom and whimpering as he withdrew. She couldn't claw at his neck this time so he missed the signs and when she came her whole body became stiff and she wailed his name. She kept on moaning loudly afterwards and that newfound thing was exciting him. A few minutes later he came deep inside of her while sounding some particularly vile curses. Afterwards, they both lay spent looking up at the ceiling.
- God, he said, it's been too long.
She did not answer, there was no need. She knew that if the bloodthirsty taichou ever needed anyone, he would come to her. She knew that he had some other girls, but he would always come back to her and that made it all worthwhile. As she lay on his chest, listening to his heartbeats, she knew he had to go back to Soul Society tomorrow, but she knew it was OK. He would always come back to her.
