"I mean the three of you. We both know that the two of them will have other duties to perform at some times. In which case, the obligation will fall upon you." Phoenix says, looking at Konzen with a serious look on his face while his eyes burn with the challenge that just dares you to go against him and see what happens. Konzen sighs.
"I guess I could watch over the brat when no other option can be reached." Konzen says, giving in. Both Tenpou and I look at him in surprise, completely taken aback by his sudden submissive behavior.
"Good. Now, I will contact the three of you when the child is born. I expect you to drop whatever you're doing and come to the birthing area on such a time." Phoenix says in a voice that clearly says that no one is to question this order.
"Very well." Both Tenpou and I say as we kneel in front of Phoenix before we both glance back at Konzen.
"Oh, I guess so." Konzen says, refusing to kneel. Though I doubt anyone within the room really thought he was going to do such an act anyway. I sigh as I get to my feet, turning to look at Phoenix for the confirmation.
"You may go." Phoenix says, gesturing toward the door. Both Tenpou and I bow at the waist while Konzen merely turns and walks out with the two of us following him. When we get outside, Tenpou and Konzen exchange a look before Konzen nods and walks off. I look at Konzen's retreating back before glancing at Tenpou with my mouth open, ready to ask what had gotten into my cousin. The look on Tenpou's face, however, causes me to stop short and take a step back while he steps toward me. He grasps my wrist.
"You're coming with me...NOW!" Tenpou says, glancing at me as a tick in his jaw suddenly flares up. A tick that says that no matter what I have to do, I'm not going to get out of this. I sigh as I get dragged away, getting quite a few looks that are either disgusted, confused or a mixture of both. When we arrive at Tenpou's house, he swiftly kicks his door off its hinges. I flinch at the sound of wood cracking before getting thrown inside the house. I barely catch myself before I fall and suddenly, I'm forced up against the nearest wall.
"W...what in the...world...Ten...pou!" I stutter, gasping for breath after I break the kiss he forces on me. Tenpou looks at me with a heated look on his face. My eyes widen as I recognize the intentions behind that look.
"You aren't going to get away from me. Not at all." Tenpou says, pushing me a little too forcefully up against the wall. I gasp as I feel the wall behind me cut my back.
"B...but Tenpou! What if someone...err...sees us?" I question, looking at him for a moment before dropping my gaze. Tenpou's deep laugh penetrates the silence after a moment or two.
"Do you REALLY think I care about anyone walking in on us? What could they possibly do?" Tenpou demands, looking at me for the answer to his question.
"Oh, I don't know...REPORT us?" I shout, glaring at him for his lack of understanding my worries. Tenpou grins, causing my resolve to waver.
"And what are they going to report us about? Two lovers, alone, in one of their apartments, making-out. It's not like we're in the same squadron anymore. There's nothing that the Dragon can do to get us apart any longer. Not since I have been transferred here for this mission." Tenpou says, looking at me with a smug grin.
"Oh, you damn bastard! That's totally not the POINT! I don't want them walking in on us at ALL!" I shout, attempting to push Tenpou off of me even though I know it's not going to work. Tenpou merely watches me with something close to smugness.
"If it makes you feel any better, I'll put up my barrier." Tenpou says, moving one of his hands behind him as it begins to glow a strange gold color. I sigh as I give up my attempt at getting him to stop. I moan in want as I place my nose under his jaw.
"Fine. You win. Take me, Tenpou." I say in the husky voice I had been attempting to blot out since he had dragged me away from Konzen. Tenpou grins as he nips my ear.
"As you wish, my love." Tenpou says, running one of his hands through my hair. I sigh in contentment at the feeling I only permit when Tenpou is doing it. This causes the look on Tenpou's face to turn to one of predatory need as he turns me away from the wall, and leads me toward the bedroom that's on the other side of the room. I gasp as I feel the end of the bed hit the back of my legs, causing me to fall backwards, giving Tenpou the chance to kneel over me.
"T...Tenpou!" I gasp as he nibbles on my ear. He chuckles, causing more pleasant feeling to shoot from my ear to my groin. I feel the gradually becoming familiar heat coil in my stomach. I moan in anguish as he pulls himself away from me.
"Can't have you cuming yet, love. Not until I'm inside your tight heat." Tenpou says, grabbing a hold of my chin, and kissing my lips. He gradually sneaks lower until he's at the juncture of my throat and shoulder before biting down hard. I gasp, knowing full well that it's merely one of the many marks I'd have by the end of the night proving to all of Heaven that I belong to this man.
"You really think you can satisfy me after neglecting me for so long?" I question, looking up at him with defiant eyes. He smirks as he nibbles on my ear.
"Shall we see?" Tenpou asks in a breathy tone. I moan as he leaves yet another mark on the skin behind my ear.
"Yes, we shall." I say with a grin. We spent the rest of the night finding out.
