Part Four - Werewolf Meets Paladin

It had been a week and a half since the first arrival of Asia Argento and though Rias had expressly forbidden it, Issei was continuing to see her. Koneko had confirmed for her that he had disobeyed. Her adorable little Neko had apparently been stalk-, following, the young man in the park where he had met up with the habit wearing catholic girl. From what Koneko had described, all they had done was go for walks and talk about their days, but it could easily still be a trick.

She glared over a file she'd been pretending to read at Hadrian, lounged back on a couch as he casually stroked Akeno's hair as she snoozed on his lap. "I thought you were going to talk to him."

He shrugged, "I did, but he really has befriended her. Hell, I met the girl myself and she doesn't have a malicious bone in her body. Honestly, I think you might just need to let this thing run its course. She'll eventually find out what he is now and when that happens we'll finally get the real test on if their new friendship can survive. You'll just need to be patient."

The redhead growled at that implication. "I hate being patient."

He raised an eyebrow, "I've watched you play the stock market on that computer of yours. Isn't that entirely patience related?"

With a triumphant smirk Rias curled a finger and said, "Come on over here and find out."

For a moment the tall man looked between her beckoning finger, then the girl in his lap, as if questioning if he should disturb her. But then he seemed to remember how much she enjoyed being mistreated and simply stood up, dropping her to the floor and smiling wolfishly as Akeno groaned, moaned, and rubbed her now sore ass, all at the same time.

While she got herself in order Hadrian made his way behind Rias as a panel in her desk opened to reveal a rising desktop screen. She did her best not to shudder when the man stopped beside her. Even now his scent and magical presence were getting to her. Akeno hadn't been kidding.

With a few clicks of her mouse she brought up one of her trading sites along with its up-to-the-second market trends. "What I do, Hadrian, is day trading. I watch the stocks for second-by-second fluctuations and make informed guesses about when to buy and sell to get the best return for my investment. Take a look at how fast the values change."

The werewolf did so and found himself rather surprised by how quickly the numbers went up and down. It seemed like every other second a company's value was increasing or it was going bankrupt.

"So you see, there isn't really patience involved here. When I trade I'm fully engrossed in every moment of the act to make sure I get the most money I can."

As Hadrian watched her speak he could have sworn he saw yen signs forming in her eyes. "All that money." She shuddered in such apparent ecstasy that the man started to wonder if wealth was a kink for her. Against his will his eyes wandered down the nape of her neck to her gentle shoulders, and eventually to the large curve that her uniform top made over her breasts. Dimly he wondered if Kurumu's apparent love of him having multiple partners had made him an even bigger pervert then he had already been. It made sense.

"So which stocks are you currently involved in?"

Rias pulled up her portfolio and his eyes widened. "This is amazing, Rias. How did you get started with all of this?"

She blushed, "Well, I always got a weekly allowance from my parents, but as the heiress of Gremory I never really needed to buy anything for myself. It seemed a shame to just let that money sit around so I researched how to make it work for me and that led me to buying and selling stocks. It's a good thing to, cause ever since I came topside and started my peerage I've been responsible for all of my own expenses."

Hadrian smiled at the bright eyed girl sitting regal and proud before him. "You really are amazing, Rias."

His thoughts however were derailed by a soft pair of lips kissing his neck, and Akeno asking huskily, "Hadrian, darling, would you go grab me a can of coffee from the vending machine outside? I have a craving."

The man turned, shoved his tongue into the sadistic girl's mouth for several long seconds, and then laid his forehead against her own. "Anything for you. I'll be back in a bit." The dark haired man moved out from behind the desk, crossed the room, and closed the door gently behind him as he left.

The moment said door closed however Akeno had grabbed her best friend by the shoulders. "Well, well, well, my cute little Rias. If the way I saw you shivering under my boyfriend's eyes was any indication I'd say you've made your decision on weather or not you want him."

Rias wanted to bluster, to deny, but the too wide eyes of her closest companion begged her for the truth and for the life of her she could not do either of those things. So instead she just groaned and exclaimed, "He's just so… perfect! How could I not want him? I mean seriously, Akeno. I just showed him stocks. Stocks. You know how many people find that interesting?"

The sadistic girl tapped her chin lightly before smirking and guessing, "Not a lot?"

"Try none. I tried explaining the process to my brother, father, uncle, and even Kiba and none of them even tried to act like it interested them. But Hadrian looked as interested as I was! This isn't even the first interest of mine he's asked about. He's tall, dark, powerful, and he actually seems to want to get to know me as a person instead of straight up sexualizing me like Riser!" Having gotten through her tirade, Rias could only sit there, gasping after letting out so many of her feelings.

Akeno meanwhile was grinning like the goddamned cheshire cat. "It sounds to me like you want him then."

Rias covered her blushing face with her hands for several seconds before finally nodding in defeat. "You're right. I do. Are you sure it's okay with you and Kurumu?"

"Rias, I told you that we've already discussed it. If you're okay with an overprotective werewolf for a mate, and sharing him with a succubus and a sadist then there is no problem with you joining up with us."

The heiress of Gremory blushed again, but the smile that grew on her face at those words was almost as big as that of her best friend. "I don't think I'll have a problem with that at all." She reached forward and rubbed her hand gently along Akeno's arm. She didn't know why but the gesture just felt… right. "Akeno, how do I… get my interest across to Hadrian?" She really hated showing off how inexperienced she was with men.

The black haired girl literally bunched her hands into fists before her and squeed out loud with excitement. "Oh Rias, I know just the way. Come on, if we're quick we can be ready by the time he gets back."

For his part, Hadrian was having a devil of a time (no pun intended) with the task of providing coffee. Now normally this wasn't anywhere near an issue as there were over two dozen vending machines spread over the campus proper, but it wasn't until he reached the fourth one that he finally found it stocked with the delicious caffeinated beverage. The first three had been out.

Well it had taken longer than expected but he made it back to the club president's office in record time. It wouldn't do for his new girlfriend to think he wasn't useful after all. However, when he opened to door to provide his woman with her drink, the sight that met his eyes was enough to drop his jaw and stop his heart.

Rias and Akeno were still present, but they were stretching… on yoga mats…. in skin tight booty shorts and sports bras. Akeno's ensemble was purple (of course) and Rias, who was nervously looking anywhere but at him, was dressed in black.

"W-W" He cleared his throat for a moment before actually managing to speak, "What's going on here?"

"Oh?" Akeno stood and sashayed over to him, her hips forming a hypnotizing arc with the movement, "Isn't it obvious, darling? You were taking so long, so we decided to get a nice little workout in while we waited."

"Really?" his gaze hungrily drank in the sight before him.

Meanwhile Rias was mustering what little courage she had in this moment to say what she needed to say. Akeno might have gone a little overboard, but she had insisted that Hadrian absolutely "loved" skin tight clothing and if she wanted to truly get her interest across she couldn't do better than to wear it. She had also made it clear that the man liked women to make their intentions very clear. So, stealing herself completely, she rose and clasped her hands together in front of her in a way that pushed her breasts out to their maximum. "Hadrian?"

"Hm?" Emerald eyes rose to the source of the question and immediately flashed crimson.

Rias shuddered at the reaction. By the fallen gods she loved that look, and those eyes. "I-I want to make my intentions clear."

His eyebrows raised at that, suddenly knowing exactly where this was going. He decided to reward Akeno grandly for this view later. Perhaps with one of the riding crops in her collection. "Intentions for what exactly?"

The heiress gulped audibly before replying, "For you, I-I mean for me, no…. Sorry, I'm nervous. I want to make my intentions for 'us' clear, and by that I mean that I would like it very much if there was an 'us'." Taking her hurried advice from Akeno to heart she strutted forward, wrapped her arms around the man's neck, and slowly tilted her head to invite him in. She wasn't even waiting for a moment before he responded in kind.

His arms wrapped solidly around her waist as lips soft of cotton covered her own. Rias blinked at the pleasure such a simple act could bring. Was simply kissing a man supposed to feel this good? Deciding to just go with it regardless, she lost herself in the act.

For five whole minutes the two alternated between simply kissing, leaning their foreheads together, and staring into each other's eyes. Both so entranced by the other and unwilling to stop. That was until Akeno started making catcall noises of congratulations.

"Woohoo!" She exclaimed as the two finally separated, though she noted that Rias had refused to let go of the wolf's hand. "You know I think I'm starting to understand why Kurumu likes to watch so much. You two were pretty hot to look at."

Before either of them could respond to that statement Issei walked in to the room. He took one look at the barely clad Akeno and Rias, as well as their positions in regards to Hadrian's arms, and immediately developed a nosebleed while giving his elder brother a solid thumbs up.

Hadrian just chuckled, as he enjoyed the slight blush that adorned his new woman's cheeks. Oh yes he was going to enjoy seeing where things with her went in the future. To his brother he asked, "Was there a reason you barged in here?"

"Oh yeah, listen, can we talk about… Asia?"

Rias groaned but her new man simply bopped her on the nose to stop her before falling back onto his usual couch and pulling her down with him to sit on his lap. She initially squawked with surprise but quickly decided she liked her new position and leaned into the warmth of his chest. Akeno quickly took a position beside him.

"Go on then, little brother."

Issei took a couple moments to gather his thoughts before saying, "I think… I think Asia might be in trouble."

"Oh? How so?"

"Well, I took your advice. You said that it was better to get the truth out sooner rather than later, to make sure a friendship was actually possible before feelings could get too deep and painful for us both."

Hadrian nodded. "So you told her you were a devil. What happened?"

"She started crying." At their disappointed looks he rushed to say, "It wasn't about what I was. Apparently I'm not the first she's met. Asia says she was a well known healer in the church, and one day she met a traveler on the road that was on death's door. She saved his life, but he turned out to be a devil and when the higher ups in her church found out she'd saved him she was booted out. She says she's been basically homeless for a month now, but a church in Kuoh suddenly sent her an invite to join and she rushed to accept."

"That sounds like a good thing." Akeno noted.

Issei however shuddered, "I don't think so. The way she describes the priests that live there… The things they've said to her, and the way they've acted… Guys I'm worried they're going to hurt her. Could we maybe offer her a place here to stay? There are a lot of spare rooms."

Rias looked her new pawn in the eyes. "Issei, while I can sympathize with a girl in a bad situation, she is apparently under the authority of the church, even if only slightly, we would risk much in going after her. Why should I risk my peerage?"

The younger man seemed to wrestle with himself for a moment before answering, "I don't think Asia meant to let this slip but she mentioned that the priests in charge of her church are… exorcists. Asia made it clear she isn't one though. Please believe me, she's the sweetest person you'd ever meet."

Rias and Akeno blinked owlishly at that as their minds caught up to the knowledge that church 'exorcists' were apparently operating in their territory. Hadrian meanwhile was openly growling, his eyes flashing red before he brought them back to green.

"Exorcists in Japan?" He bit out, "I thought I'd taught those bastards to stay out of my country." At the curious looks of his women he said, "A couple years back a cadre of specialists from Iscariot heard about some monsters under my protection in the mountains. They came with guns, holy blades, and bombs. I killed all but one of them."

"All but one?" Issei was curious. It wasn't like his big brother to leave survivors. At least not based on the stories he'd heard.

"To take a message back to his superiors right?" Akeno suggested, earning a nod from her man in the process.

"They stayed out of my country and I stopped sending back their heads. Rotting craniums don't exactly mix with the Vatican's aesthetic. It seems the message was not properly sent." He looked at Rias, "I'd say taking out a nest of encroaching exorcists is exactly something to risk your peerage over."

The redhead sighed and agreed before reluctantly leaving her new man's arms. "Well, if I'm going hunting I'll need to be dressed in something more protective than this."

"Shame." Hadrian rumbled earning a saucy wink from the girl and a hearty laugh from Akeno.

Two Hours Later

The assault team of the Gremory peerage found themselves standing before the black doors of a derelict church. Their members included Rias, Akeno, Kiba, Koneko, and Issei. To the side Hadrian and Kurumu were also present, though they'd made it clear they'd let the devils take the lead.

Together they marched up to the entrance where Rias concentrated her power and with a burst of chaotic energy exploded the doors inward. The sight they were met with was… not what they were expecting. Before their eyes were corpses in all directions. Blood lining the walls, windows, and ceilings. And above it all, at the head of the church floor sat an alter. Upon it stood a mountain of a man, holding a waif of a girl in the air by her collar.

"Asia!"

"Issei stay in formation!" Rias called, but the young man didn't listen.

In a burst of light a crimson gauntlet came into being on his left arm and the sound of an ethereal voice chanting "Boost" roared with every running step. "Let her go!"

Turning to view the source of the disturbance the man raised his eyebrows, dropped the girl, and crossed his arms in front of his chest just as Issei's blow hit. There was the sound of thunder, impact, and the wall behind the mystery attacker disintegrated, bathing the space in dust and grime.

"Asia!" Issei knelt next to the girl and rubbed her back as she coughed. The big man hadn't been choking her, but her shirt collar had definitely bit into her neck. "Are you alright?"

As the two were having their moment the rest of the team were making their way inside and spreading out. Something told them this wasn't over, and they were right.

"Avast ye heathens, feel God's wrath!" A distinctly Irish voice called from the depths of the dust cloud.

"Down!" Hadrian roared as Kiba jumped in front of the kneeling teenagers with his sword raised. Just in time too as six bayonets escaped the obstruction, only to be deflected by the skilled knight.

With a chuckle the big man walked out of the finally settling cloud, a pair of fresh bayonets held loosely in his hands. "What a fine day for Christ. I was sent here to silence these rogue heretics, but now I find a whole group of demons." In a flash his weapons were held before him in a loose cross. "My prayers have been answered."

Rias was all set to order her peerage forth against this maniac, but a strong hand on her shoulder stopped her.

"Hold, Rias." Hadrian's voice was a heady growl. "Priests and exorcists are one thing, but this man, there's something wrong with his blood, it's fighting me." He sniffed, "Microorganisms. Yes, I know what he is and none of you are prepared to face a paladin."

The heiress of Gremory could only gulp at that and rapidly summoned her peerage, which included a shivering nun in Issei's arms, to her side. Yes, she'd heard horror stories of paladins and her brother had made clear in no uncertain terms that she was never to engage one.

"Kurumu," Hadrian cracked his neck and pumped his arms out a couple times to loosen up as he stepped up to the now revealed priest, "Take the others outside. I'll handle him."

"Are you sure?" The blue haired girl asked, her claws extended and ready for use.

"Yes. All of you will just get in the way."

His mate of fate nodded her understanding, though she didn't like it, and quickly ushered the protesting devils back to the street outside.

Meanwhile the two men simply stood staring at each other. "Before we start, what's your name?" Hadrian bit out. "I'd like to know what corpse I'm sending back to your superiors to remind them whose territory this is."

The bayonet bearing man grinned anew and spread his arms wide, "I be Father Alexander Anderson ya damn heathen. All bein fair what be your name?"

"Hadrian Hyodou. So now that the niceties are out of the way, should we get this going?"

Instead of answering, faster than thought Anderson ripped one of his arms down and slashed his bayonet through his adversary's chest, or at least he tried to. The blade sunk six inches into his chest cavity before it stuck fast. The priest only had time to see the creature's smug grin before a spear of what appeared to be blood flew out of the wound to pierce his shoulder.

With a grunt the big man hopped back to gain some distance, dislodging his shoulder in the process. "How the blood soaked protestant hell did ye do that?" He exclaimed.

"Fuck you, that's how." Hadrian replied before getting into a ready stance of his own. As he did, he shifted into his true wolf form and allowed the blood to keep falling from his wound as he directed it over his chest, shoulders, back, legs, and forearms before forcing it to harden. By the end he was effectively wearing armor made of his own blood. "Now let's get this party started for real."

The two rushed at each other and engaged in hand to hand violence beyond the barest comprehension of mortal vision. Fists flew, bayonets bounced off hardened blood, and all the while the two dealt blows to each other that healed within seconds. Though of the two, Anderson was getting the worst of it. It turned out that Hadrian could liquidate any portion of his armor at will, and every time the priest got close enough to attack he had to deal with spikes of blood coming at him whenever he threw a punch.

Finally they pulled apart again and just ended up staring at each other. Each sported ripped vestments of clothing, but no signs of actual injury. "Alright, so this don't be fun for anyone." The Irishman groused. "The fuck are ye anyway?"

"A beast of the bedroom as your mother can attest."

"Ha! I didn't even know me mother! But seriously?"

Hadrian sighed and gestured blandly to his fur covered canine face. "I'm a werewolf. Did that fuck I sent back to you all seriously not mention that fact? I made it clear to him that this was my territory and I'd merc anyone that ever came here again."

"Hm. Nobody told me that." Alexander shrugged. "Anyway, I'm really not sure what to do here. Ye ain't a demon, so exorcism won't work. Physical attacks heal in an instant, and I'm assuming bullets and explosions would have the same effect."

"So we're at an impasse. Unless you have something crazy like a nail from Christ's cross or some bullshit like that."

The priest scoffed, "Are ye kidding? What fuckin fool would ever willingly use one of those?"

"I'd normally say no one, but I've seen some crazy shit." The wolf groused, earning a chuckle from the other man as he sheathed his blades and looked around.

"Well, I was sent to do a job. I did it, and normally I'd massacre all of ya heathen fuckers, but as I said before, ya don't die. So I guess I'll get some better weapons and come back later."

Hadrian frowned and got back in a ready stance, "Who says I'm ready to let you go yet?"

For a response Anderson reached into his heavy coat and pulled out a thickly bound leather book. "I'd say the word of god does, but a heathen like you wouldn't believe it. Tell that little girl I'll be seeing her soon." He kicked one of corpses by his feet idly, "She used her power to heal several of these blasphemers after they fled from me wrath. That has to be accounted for." The man waved and an instant later his body was consumed by a torrent of flying paper.

Hadrian rushed to slash through it with his claws but by then it was too late. He was already gone.

With a sigh the werewolf reverted to his human form and pulled his blood armor back into his body. It had been Kurumu that suggested he create that technique, and though he could heal virtually from any wound barring decapitation, it was nice to avoid getting hit in those areas when he fought. Then he made his way back into the street where three women were nervously waiting for him.

The moment they saw him walking out of the building under his own power they swarmed him, and he happily accepted their hugs and worried fretting for several moments before noticing a distinct lack of other people present.

"Where are the others?" He asked.

"Asia passed out and Issei refused to leave her side so he and the others took her back to the clubhouse." Akeno answered as she took his left hand.

"Yes, and Koneko had the most adorable annoyed look in her eyes too when he said it." Kurumu giggled before hopping onto his back. "Maybe she'll finally stake her claim."

"Never mind that," Rias chided as she took his right hand, "what happened in there?"

Hadrian filled his girls in as the foursome made their way through town back to the clubhouse. They were wide eyed at the knowledge that their mate could stand alone against a paladin, and terrified about the skill the adversary had displayed before escaping. When he touched on the interest the priest had for Asia, Rias got a calculating look in her eyes.

"I might need to offer her a place in my peerage. I don't think she'll be safe otherwise. With us she'd at least be protected."

"And you think a former nun would consent to becoming a devil?" The wolf raised his eyebrows curiously at that.

She shrugged, "We won't know until I ask, but if the way she was looking at Issei before she passed out was any indication I'd say the odds are good." Everything was quiet as they entered the building, so assuming that everyone was asleep they all made their way to Akeno's room. It had the biggest bed. It wasn't mentioned before, but now that they were all there, together, with Rias, Hadrian felt he needed to clarify something.

Looking into the redhead's eyes he asked, Are you sure about this, Rias? We only just got together. We don't have to do anything if you aren't ready."

Rias smiled widely at those words. They were words she knew for a fact Riser would never utter to her. That bastard had made it clear on several occasions that her will, desires, pleasure, or fears were of no concern to him. Only his own pleasure and gratification mattered to his mind. Meanwhile this man, this wolf, was worried that she wasn't feeling ready for what was to come, even though she had been walking just as fast as the others to get to this room.

Taking his hands in her own, she leaned up on her tiptoes and waited for him to lean down so she could kiss him. "Hadrian, I want this. I have wanted it for a while now, but just couldn't admit it to myself. Akeno helped me realize that. You are strong, sexy, and you actually give a damn about me as a person. If I have to give my first time to anyone, I'd rather it be you than someone like Riser."

The wolf smiled into her lips and this time he was kissing her. "That's all I needed to hear."

Beside them both Kurumu was preening with anticipation of watching her love with yet another new woman, and Akeno was tittering behind her hand. "My, my, my, I imagine it also helps that her parents promised her pure for her wedding night. This is bound to be one hell of an act of defiance."

Rias blushed at those words, but before she could reassure everyone present that that wasn't why she was giving herself to them, she found herself bound in a blue haired succubus's bear hug.

Kurumu smirked at the others and said, "Her desires have an exceptionally delectable flavor. Give me five minutes and then you can come in." A second later she had bustled her very willing captive into Akeno's room and slammed the door closed behind her."

"What do you think that's about?" The werewolf asked a giggling Akeno.

"Oh, probably a little something do with Rias's breath play fetish."

"What?"

"She likes being choked."

"Oh." A heavy lidded look came over the young man's face as images came into his head. Yes, he was going to enjoy this.

Several minutes later Kurumu's voice echoed through the hardwood of the door, "You can come in now!"

*** Lemon Start ***

With only slightly shaking hands the werewolf opened the door and his heart nearly stopped. Sitting crosslegged against the headboard was a naked Kurumu, and in her lap was Rias's head, while the rest of her naked body was spread eagled across the bed, with light scarves holding her limbs down.

"Rias," Kurumu began, "has three very important sexual desires."

"Oh?" Hadrian and Akeno entered the room and began to ghost their fingers over the exposed skin before them, delighting in the way it pebbled in goosebumps beneath them. "Do tell, my love."

"The obvious one first, I'm sure Akeno mentioned she likes a little bit of choking."

"Oh we can take care of that."

"I know, love. Second, she wants to trust her lover absolutely. So I convinced her to let me tie her down. She's effectively helpless to you in this moment and she's trusting you'll treat her right."

Hadrian raised an eyebrow, "And she's absolutely okay with this?"

"Yes. And her safe-word is apricot. Finally, she wants us 'all' to make love to her."

"Hehehehe." Akeno giggled once more, a healthy blush forming over the newly exposed cleavage of her unbuttoned shirt. "I see the president finally figured out she likes girls too?"

Rias blushed anew and nodded, for once not stopping her eyes from wandering over the form of her best friend. "Yes, Akeno. After you helped me with my…. breath play incident, I started to suspect, and later on I finally figured it out. Is-Is it okay, that I want you too?"

"Of course, Rias." Akeno emphasized her point by grasping both sides of the other girl's face and kissing her deeply. "You have no idea how long I've waited for you to ask this of me."

Kurumu interrupted the moment then, "Good, we're all on the same page. Now, off with your clothes. Double time."

"Yes ma'am." the clothed pair intoned as one, practically ripping the offending garments off of themselves.

They took a moment to enjoy Rias's eyes on their nude forms before crawling onto the bed on either side of her. By unspoken agreement, each of them began peppering the redhead's body with kisses, starting at the tips of her fingers and making their way lower, meanwhile Kurumu began massaging her hands over her throat, flexing them lightly here and there, and always adding a bit more pressure.

Rias moaned, groaned, tried to twist this way and that, but the scarves held her firmly in place, and by the fallen gods she was absolutely loving it! She'd had no idea foreplay could be this… intoxicating. Then it got even better.

Hadrian had settled into the empty space between her legs and without preamble began licking up her thighs to the sweetness between them, an act that caused a scream of pleasure to burst from her lungs. It was cut short however as at the same time the sound left her, the succubus latched her hands in place and squeezed, not hard enough to cut off all airflow, but certainly enough to make breathing more difficult. Akeno meanwhile was using the time to play with Rias's slightly smaller breasts, enjoying the way they overflowed over her hands, and how sensitive her nipples seemed to be.

Between the three of them they had the heiress on the cusp of release in record time, but they didn't take her over the edge. No, they edged her for twenty minutes, over and over, until finally, Kurumu closed off the girl's airway entirely.

Rias' orgasm was so powerful, so all consuming, that for several seconds control over her chaos magic escaped her and the room became filled with crimson light. All present stopped what they were doing to take in the glorious fruits of their labor, and as the girl finally started to come back to herself Kurumu nodded to her man. It was time, and they both knew it.

As the redhead gasped for air and stared expectantly at them all, Hadrian lined his length up with her drenched slit and slowly, oh so slowly, slid inside. It wasn't long before he met resistance.

The werewolf looked directly into her eyes then, "Are you ready?"

"Yes. It's okay." She was clearly nervous, but was soothed slightly when Kurumu started combing her fingers through her hair, and Akeno cooed in her ear.

"Kurumu." She got the message and a second later the scarves were sliced neatly through, and only when he felt Rias' legs wrap around his waist did he push the rest of the way inside.

There was a gasp of pain and he stilled once more, waiting for the girl to adjust around him and grow comfortable once more. It took a few minutes, but eventually her arms wrapped around him and he started slowly thrusting. The world fell away then for the two of them and all that remained was each other. Neither could say say exactly when the tempo changed, but eventually the two were slamming back into each other with wild abandon, grunting, groaning, moaning each others names into their mouths, until finally Hadrian couldn't take anymore. He bit into Rias' neck as he released, drawing a bit of blood and relishing in the delighted scream that signaled she too had finished. It seemed she was quite vocal in the bedroom.

The world came back to them then. Hadrian rolled off of his new woman and pulled her close to him, and the two enjoyed the show that was coming to a close next them. Apparently while they had been having their moment, Akeno and Kurumu had gotten it into their heads to perform a sixty-nine on each other. It didn't take long until they two were satisfied and cuddling close to them.

*** Lemon End ***

"So," The wolf whispered in the redhead's ear, "was your first time satisfactory?"

Smothering a yawn with the back of her hand, Rias cuddled closer and said, "Any more satisfactory and I wouldn't be able to function at all. Even so, I imagine I won't be walking tomorrow."

"Speaking from experience, no." Kurumu smirked before using her tail to pull a nearby comforter over her group. "But you'll get used to it soon enough. Our man is very well endowed."

"And an excellent lover." Akeno teased. "You won't mind the soreness much."

"Ah shucks, you're making me blush." Hadrian chuckled.

The four of them stayed up late that night, talking, dreaming of the future, and growing closer as a unit. Each of them thinking that they'd finally found something they didn't know they were looking for.
