The drunk councilman's wife stumbled into her husband's room. Technically it was hers too, but she made a habit of finding his brother's room or any other willing man in the palace. Tonight she planned on knocking on doors until she found someone willing. The next morning they were heading to the family estate. She'd long since discovered she was barren, and she could let a man fuck her, and he didn't have to worry about getting her pregnant. That made her very popular among the men who enjoyed cumming inside a woman and not worrying about a bastard.

Her husband was with his mistress grunting out and fucking her. She looked with interest. The woman was on her back having a wonderful time, and it didn't look like she was faking it. It excited her.

"Get the hell out!" He yelled, not pausing. "I'm in the middle of something."

His wife said, "don't mind me. I just had an excellent idea. Screw her and spill your seed in her. Get her pregnant. We're heading home and will be away from the palace. We can pretend her child is mine, and you can finally have an heir."

"You really don't like my brother," he commented, snapping his hips and penetrating his lover harder. He loved the idea of getting her pregnant.

"He doesn't want to settle down. You need to provide your family line with a child."

He looked down at his mistress he was growing to care for deeply. "Want to give me a baby?"

"Yes," she moaned as he fucked her hard. "I'll give you a child."

He kissed her passionately and said, "you will raise your offspring to be my heir. I promise you that you will be my mistress for good." She was thrilled. She had the promise of being able to raise a child up to be wealthy and prominent in the Fire Nation.

When he came inside her, grunting out his release after his wife had exited, she blushed. "Um… so I had been worried. Incredibly worried, actually. I really think I'm already pregnant with your child."

He caressed her stomach and smiled down at her. "Fuck I find that so hot. My seed is growing in your belly." He then chuckled. "That means it's just my wife that's barren."

She breathed out a sigh of relief. "I was terrified to tell you."

He nibbled her neck and caressed her breasts. "Don't be. Even if she didn't come to me and said that, I wouldn't have been upset. Your child wouldn't be the first bastard to come from this family, it would have been nice to show everyone that I can get you pregnant, and it's all on my wife that I don't have an heir."

"Your wife can't control it," she defended. "It's not her fault."

"No, but she's spent her life making mine harder until you came to my bed. I'm still a bit angry. She used to make sure I caught her in bed with men constantly. There was a time in the beginning when I actually cared for her. She didn't return those feelings and enjoyed destroying my affection for her."

He bent down and nipped at her tits. "And now I'm going to have a child. I'm so damn excited. And even better, it's yours and not that bitch's."

"She's good to me," she defended again.

He shrugged and fingered her pussy. "It's her only redeeming quality in my eyes. I can actually stand her a bit now. And you…" he plunged a finger into her pussy. "You are the highlight of my life. And the thought of seeing you round with my child gets me so hard. It's erotic to think about impregnating you."

She smiled until he curled his finger in her, and it turned into a moan. "A child of my very own. There was a time when I didn't know she was barren that I was terrified that I would be raising another man's child." He slowly started circling her clit with his thumb. "You're giving me everything."

A tear slipped down her cheek. "I'm so happy you're glad about the baby. I was so afraid of being sent away from you."

"From me?" He asked tenderly.

"You're a good man, and you are so kind to me. I don't want to lose this."

"This child will be my joy."

Zuko slid his hands over Katara's naked body. He had memorized every dip and curve of her, which made him love her more. They knew each other so well that it enhanced everything. She knew his body too, and it was incredible. He loved how she knew what little touch or look would drive him wild. She wasn't a random cunt to fuck. She was a woman who knew how to drive his body wild, and he knew how to do the same for her. He didn't get having random sex. The excitement of the strangeness of it all didn't entice him. Katara knew his body and worked to please him, and he was the same way with her. It was beyond erotic for him that she knew his turn-ons better than he did.

She was riding him in a room in the palace in Ba Sing Se. He found he could get over Azula's death. After all, he truly believed one woman would live; his sister, or the woman he would give his very life blood for.

He watched her boobs bounce as she rode him, and he thrust up into her. She was looking him in the eyes as she did, and it was another thing he loved about sex with her. She knew he got off on her beautiful eyes, and she worked to keep them open for him.

When he orgasmed, he collapsed, sapped of all his energy. It had been a hard couple of days, and he fought on. He couldn't let himself fail his beloved, Katara.

The following day Katara almost laughed with the absurdity of it all. Mai and Ty Lee met her in the hall. She bristled but tried to appear calm. "Azula's funeral is today."

Mai frowned. "I remember the girl she was. Her father influenced her so much to her detriment."

"I'm glad someone remembers her well. Zuko will need to be reminded of those times."

"Zuko and I could grow close again over memories of Azula as a child," Mai taunted. "It would be a good way to bond and remind him of when he loved me."

Katara laughed. "Keep trying. It won't happen. I'm not fighting you, and you're not my enemy. I was gifted his adoration and love before you even realized it wasn't a game you could play."

"Ozai has me as his betrothed."

"Ozai will die, and Zuko will be Fire Lord. All before you could ever hope to be made his wife. Pick a side. If you choose wrong, I won't shed a tear when I destroy you."

Ty Lee pouted, "Mai does care for him."

Katara turned to face her and said, "I would give him anything. I'm too much in love. He could use me if he wanted, and I would still adore him. Neither of you understands love. Not the kind of love I have for him."

Tohru hung back watching it all, she knew Katara didn't need anyone to fight her battles for her. She heard about many of them from Ozai, and she witnessed the one the night of the Ball firsthand.

When Katara dismissed them and walked away, she started chuckling. That drew Mai and Ty Lee's attention. She said, "you've been around Azula too much. Ozai bragged how much she was like him. He didn't realize they were both blind. Zuko doesn't just love Katara. She's his reason to fight, the one who makes this all worth it. He planned to let his sister live, but she tried to kill Katara. He's not a man you would even want if Katara weren't in his life. She made him."

"He's supposed to be mine. I love him so much," Mai stated.

Tohru frowned, "and I believe you. That makes me pity you. You're all blind to her influence in his life. Her love is what gives him the confidence and desire to become a strong man."

Ty Lee glared at Tohru, "Mai's amazing and is from Fire Nation. She can do the same thing for him if not better."

"Choose your side," Tohru said, ignoring her. "But know this. I'm not as good and kind as Katara. She even goes after Ozai face to face. When I come after you, you'll be dead without knowing it was coming. I owe her everything, and I won't tolerate you trying to be a problem for her."

Ozai was pissed and was taking it out on his willing whores. Today many of his councilmen had disappeared. He called for them only to find that they had headed to their homes already.

One of his mistresses moaned as he slapped her face. The bitch loved to be rough fucked and hit, and it thrilled him. She orgasmed, and he kept playing with her. Ozai was furious over his shit luck in losing a whore. Still, the two he had got off on the best kind of things.

Dinner was happening that night in his room Shinu was bringing what he was sure would be a ripe peach. He knew the man wasn't brutal, but he excused that. Shinu's sexual preferences still pleased and excited him. He liked to team up on a woman. He would fuck her from behind and tell her to suck the other man's cock. He would even grab her hair and make her take him deeper into her mouth. Ozai was planning on letting one of his guards get sucked off by Shinu's woman. He would be taken care of by his own.

The Madam laughed. Quite a few of the women were in the harem that night. Many of the councilmen were fleeing in droves. Without Katara to tame him, Ozai was a mess.

Word was he lost it at a council meeting last week and almost killed one of his more loyal men. She had sent one of her best girls to the councilor that night to tend to him and coax his feelings out during pillow talk. The Madam didn't dare send a note to Katara, but she was planning a full report when she returned.

The councilor appreciated the woman's tender caresses and her desire to please him sexually. He opened up and admitted that he wished Zuko was Fire Lord, and the man had his full support if he managed to destroy his father. He enjoyed the woman so much that he took her with him when he left to go to his family estate.
