The following day had been an exhausting one, ever since Subaru became the king of vollachia he had noticed the ups and downs brought by the title. For Subaru the responsibility of being a king was something short of a down. Filling out paper, giving orders, and sometimes making appearances were all something Subaru was required to do, what he hated the most was having to read the 500+ papers of laws that needed to be processed, but still Subaru found himself good at playing king.

Yet for some reason he had felt much better doing this than working as a servant for that bastard clown at the Rosswaal manor. Even when occasionally some fools would challenge Subaru's authority by blaring out hateful words and trying to attack Subaru he would still keep a smile on his face as he shut down those fools with a single slash of his sword. The job was by no means easy but at least he wasn't suffering from ptsd and self harm any more…

Well it's not like Subaru had a taste for death while the yang sword still dwelled in his hand. Subaru who had just finished a load of paperwork plopped down his pen and laid his head on the desk, his face had a chummy expression. The paper he had just finished was something he hadn't gotten to finish due to his main responsibilities as a king.

Writing off the land of Buddheim jungle back to the Shudrak was something he had wanted to do for the longest. The reason for this wasn't because he had been ruled out or anything of the sort. His relationship with the Shudrak's were fairly good with them even helping out in several fights that could have ended his life.

The reason for giving this land to the Shudraks weren't out of desperation but to repay the debt he had owed and to also keep civilians from mysteriously disappearing in the forest, especially young men. Even though Subaru wanted to offer more to the Shudrak's he was a king so even if he wanted to help them he had to prioritize his own people first. Since the Shudrak's didn't oblige by the law he couldn't call them his people.

In his thought Subaru had suddenly heard the door open. The one to enter the room was a kimono wearing white haired fox whose colorful attire reminded him of an ocean. The expression she was wearing was obvious that she was happy to see him, Subaru also smiled.

"Yorna what brings you here ?"

"Just because you have all that work doesn't mean you get to neglect your wife."

Subaru loved Yorna and her stubbornness that would sometimes cause him to love her even more. Despite having known about her hidden identity for about a year he had still loved her and probably even more. Her love for her people was what charmed him in the first place.

But it wasn't always like this… When Subaru had first met Yorna they didn't share any sentimental affection for each other, only thinking of each other as mere obstructions. The first kiss they shared was back in a time where Subaru had still been a child, in a loop of death where his sanity was tested he hated the feeling. Sometime later when his actions caused the death of the previous emperor the throne had welcomed him as well as the female fox kin Yorna.

A political marriage is what became of it. Her goal to protect Chaos flame and Subaru's goal for a new life were things that both of them had to do, they had no time to engage into each other's affairs. Yet how all things lead to another Subaru had found himself looking at Yorna more often than usual, her Kindness was something he never knew.

Yorna also found herself peaking at Subaru more than she should have, his goofiness and boldness was refreshing to see. Later in the night in one romantic evening they both found themselves sharing a bed together as the kiss he had hated became something so addicting. Yorna efficiently propped herself on Subaru's desk; her rosy perfume was enough for Subaru's heart to flutter a little faster than usual. Subaru felt like Yorna had known this but that was impossible, right ?

"Subaru, why don't you brush my tail, I'll give you the privilege just this once. Yorna, who secretly wanted Subaru to brush her tail, had hidden a brush in one of his drawers. For a queen to ask of something of another was blasphemous and as someone as prideful as herself, asking for help from someone weaker than her was out of question, Yorna flawed logic was definitely her trying to hide her shyness.

She may have been a queen but she still harbored the heart of an innocent maiden. There was no way she could ask something so embarrassing of herself. Yorna smirked, her plan was sure to succeed.

"Sorry Yorna, I still have twenty other papers to finish. Maybe another time I promise. "

"Eh!"

Like how a cartoon character would fall backwards when a character's plan would fail the same cliche repeated itself in real time.

"But -but it can wait, right. It can't be something that important."

"Actually it revolves around our military and our resources that's being supplied by Kararagi. If I don't finish these by today our military could suffer a financial loss, so sorry Yorna my next free day is some day next week. "

Yorna, who looked shocked, turned to stone.

"Gimme those this is ridiculous-"

"Wait Yorna."

Yorna had grabbed a stack of papers and forced herself into Subaru's seat, squishing him as their bodies conjoined.

Subaru's mind began to unravel.

It wasn't like he had hated this in truth if he could stay like this he would without a doubt snuggle with Yorna, but considering all the work that's been piled up his levels of stress has been through the roof and to top it off his body was now feeling every bit of softness Yorna's had to offer. His mind, which was the same as an average teen, could barely take it. If Yorna kept this up, well Subaru might not make it through the night. Unbeknownst to Yorna, Subaru's body had been squishing with hers. Her sweat, smells, and touch was like poison to his senses. If Yorna had noticed Subaru's face she would say it had an adorable redness to it.

"Okay if you do those, I can do these."

"-yea."

"And after you finish those will you be doing anything else that needs to be finished ?"

"-no"

"Okay, and also, is everything alright you seem to be kind of red."

"-nah it's nothing."

Yorna, who didn't realize why Subaru's face was so red, decided it was nothing. As she worked she completed a couple of papers before putting it into the stack, when she looked at Subaru he seemed to be lacking his normal pace.

"Suba-"

It then hit her. Her hair tied up, her sweaty body practically fused with Subaru's and her beauty as a nine tailed fox. She had thought it was impossible but she had seduced Subaru. It was like that night all over again. Her face quickly turned red but as her prideful self, she sat tall giving a hmph undoing her kimono, just a tad bit. Subaru pace had seemed to slow even more.

"I-Is it just me, or is it crazy hot in here ?"

"Y-Yea I guess it is."

A maid who had been watching from outside the door slapped her head. It seems like these two will need more than a little help to push this relationship further, the maid thought. The two eventually finished the papers and quickly went to bed.

Yet for some reason Yorna had found herself snuggling in Subaru's sheets.
