A Hashira Love Story - Chapter 2

The next morning Shinobu woke up feeling better rested than ever. Giyuu had been caressing her arm and smiled at her and kissed her nose as a good morning when he noticed that she was now awake.

"Thank you…" she whispered to him.

"No need to thank me." Giyuu said in a loving tone.

He continued to press kisses against her face while hugging her. He kissed her cheeks, her forehead, her nose… then she suddenly captured his lips with hers as he was about to kiss her cheek again. They both closed their eyes as for the first time they were able to feel just how good it felt feeling the touch of each other's lips on their own. Their lips moulded together perfectly.

When the kiss broke, Giyuu brought his palm up to caress her cheek and Shinobu leaned into it. Their gaze said it all, they were so in love with one another. Giyuu moved closer to her to kiss her again and she replied lovingly following his lead.

The kiss grew deeper as Giyuu held her face and pressed it deeper into his. This moment meant everything. They both wanted to show each other just how they felt for one another. She felt his tongue entangled with hers and he felt himself getting aroused the more that they kissed. It had been years since he had last had a sexual encounter and he had never done it with someone that he had true feelings for so the adrenaline and the blood pumping through him felt a lot more intense.

Giyuu gently pushed her against the futon so that he was now hovering over her and he pressed kisses down her jawline until he reached her neck where he began suckling and kissing at it. Shinobu breathed heavily and quietly moaned as he sucked and nipped until he left a bruise. A mark that signified that she was his.

Giyuu made his way back to her lips and Shinobu wrapped her arms around his neck to draw him in closer. She wrapped her legs around his waist to guide him between her thighs and Giyuu groaned at the feel of his rock hard erection rubbing against her heat. She began rocking her hips and Giyuu groaned with pleasure. It felt too good and they hadn't even removed their clothes! He matched her rhythm and they both were drawing each other in wanting more.

Shinobu grabbed Giyuu's hand while their mouths were all over each other and placed it on her breast. Annoyed with the fabric being in the way he slid his hand underneath her shirt so as to feel her mounds entirely. Shinobu moaned as Giyuu caressed the soft flesh and pinched her nipple while grinding hard against her. He lowered his face to kiss her breasts through the fabric and Shinobu moaned, loving the feel of his face pressed against her chest.

She reached down between them and cupped his hard cock in her hand and began stroking it through his pants. Giyuu groaned, coming to a halt at the feel of her bare hand stroking his wanting arousal. He lavished at her lips, giving her a rough and sloppy kiss like it was his first but she loved the feel of his mouth and tongue all over hers. She reached inside of his pants and pulled him out causing Giyuu to groan against her lips. He was dripping with pre cum and his cock was hot and in need of release.

Shinobu opened her legs and drew him in closer again so that he was aligned with her dripping entrance.

"Wait… baby… wait…" Giyuu said, brushing his palm against her cheek and looking into her eyes lustfully yet entirely serious. "Are you sure?"

Shinobu nodded and wrapped her legs around his waist once more so that the tip of his cock poked at her entrance. Giyuu had to grit his teeth to not let out a loud moan. The feel of his dick against her wet core made him shudder with desire. She brought his face to hers so that she could kiss him softly.

"I want you baby…" Shinobu said to him through their kiss and that was enough to almost take him to the edge.

He reached down, never breaking the kiss and keeping his lips pressed to hers as he aligned himself to her soaking entrance. The feel of just the tip of his penis brushing against her was delicious. He rubbed himself against her clit to stimulate her further and she moaned against his mouth. With a final reassuring look, Giyuu held her hand and pushed inside of her, careful to go slow as he was rather large compared to her.

Shinobu broke their kiss to lean her head back and silently moan. Inch by inch pleasure mixed with just a small amount of pain shot through her and she clutched onto Giyuu's hand tighter. Their bodies finally became connected entirely and it was the most perfect moment. Shinobu buried her head into his neck and whimpered. He was now fully sheathed inside of her and it took everything in him to not just ram himself to completion. Her pleasure was more important than his.

After a little while when he knew she was more comfortable with him inside her, Giyuu slowly rocked his hips and they both moaned at the feeling. He turned his head slightly to kiss her ear.

"Can I go faster?" He asked her, bringing his lips close to her ear.

Shinobu nodded and encouraged him by wrapping her arms and legs tightly around him. She pulled at his hair as he picked up the pace and thrusted deeper and harder into her. For a moment he forgot where he was and became very rough with her as each thrust shot pleasure through them both. He gripped her hips tightly and slammed himself hard and fast into her focusing on helping them both to reach their climax.

Shinobu cried out in pleasure as he reached her sweet spot.

"Right there baby?" Giyuu whispered in such a dark and seductive voice that it made shivers run through Shinobu's spine. Who knew he could be so suave.

He made sure to hit that same spot over and over until he felt her walls clench around him and she came on a silent moan. At the feel of her orgasm, a couple more thrusts and Giyuu came inside of her, his cock shooting jets of creamy white cum deep into her womb.

He collapsed on top of her, he hadn't ever cum so hard in his life. This was the most pleasure they had both felt in all their years they had been alive. Shinobu wrapped her arms around him and brushed her fingers through his hair as he laid against her chest.

"Thank you baby." Giyuu said, leaning his forehead against hers and then pressing a kiss to her lips. "I love you." He said, meaning it with all his heart.

Shinobu smiled at him. "I love you too." And she meant it just as much as he did. Giyuu crushed his lips to hers and they just kissed for a while, demonstrating each other's devotion to one another.

Giyuu leaned back and pulled his cock out of her and a flood of his cum mixed with her juices followed, dripping down her thighs.

"I'm sorry… I didn't ask if it was okay to cum inside of you…" Giyuu said, laying down next to her and pulling her into his chest.

"It's okay… I shouldn't be able to get pregnant with the current medicine I'm taking anyway."

Pregnant. Oh how wonderful it would be to have a child with the woman that he loved. He envisioned a pregnant Shinobu with a full round belly… it brought a smile to his face. However… Now was not the time to be thinking about that. One day he would get her pregnant and together they would have a family. He imagined them having the most perfect life with the most beautiful babies. A most perfect dream. They both fell asleep with the same thought in mind.


A few hours later, Shinobu woke up again and she was still laying against her lover's chest wrapped in his warm embrace. The sun was high and it was now what looked like to be late noon! Giyuu was still quietly sleeping. They had both fallen asleep again and neglected to get up for their duties…

Shit. Everyone at the butterfly mansion would be looking for her. She was late and even Lady Tamayo was probably waiting for her to start with their project…

Shinobu glanced up at Giyuu's innocent sleeping face which she found adorable. He looked so peaceful when he slept. Shinobu leaned her head up to give him a soft peck against his cheek as she carefully moved to slip out of his arms without disturbing his slumber.

She walked toward the wash room and hurried to clean herself up a bit before changing back into her regular corps uniform. After washing up and doing her hair, she walked back out to Giyuu's room to see that he was still fast asleep. He must be exhausted. In truth, the two of them could probably sleep until the next morning if only they could.

Shinobu smirked and walked over to the futon. She knelt down next to him and gently nudged his shoulder. Giyuu quietly woke up and he sat up now realizing that she was fully clothed and prepared for work… much to his disappointment…

"Are you leaving?" Giyuu asked her sadly. "You should've woken me up when you woke up, I would've helped you to get ready."

Shinobu smirked and raised a brow. "Had I done that I'm certain it would've taken much longer than the time it took me to get dressed by myself." She said with a quiet chuckle. "I have to get back to the butterfly mansion."

"Ok baby, would you like me to bring you anything you might need or want? I can come by." Giyuu asked.

Shinobu smiled at him and pressed her forehead to his and kissed his lips. Giyuu placed his palm against her cheek lovingly and caressed it with his thumb. It worried him that she was returning to the butterfly mansion where she would have to work endlessly.

"No thank you. I should be fine. But thank you for last night. This is the best I have felt in years…" Shinobu truly spoke.

"I'm glad. I could say the same… Shinobu, come back tonight. It worries me that you don't find sleep and barely eat at the butterfly mansion."

Shinobu gave Giyuu a sweet smile and placed her hand on top of his. He was so caring for her.

"I'll come back if I can." She replied but something in her tone suggested that it was unlikely.

Giyuu nodded and they shared a final kiss goodbye. Shinobu stood up and grabbed her haori as she left Giyuu's house and started towards the butterfly mansion. Giyuu soon followed and dressed himself to get ready for another day of Hashira Training.


A few days had gone by and Giyuu hadn't heard a word from Shinobu. He was really worried for her and after the love that they had shared… he had expected to see her more. On the plus side, his Hashira training was now highly favored by all the demon slayers as they found it to be where they could improve best. Giyuu was now being more of a teacher and he was much more patient and understanding of his disciples. Everyone had wondered what had changed but they didn't care to ask, they were just glad that they weren't being sent to the hospital anymore.

After almost two weeks coming without hearing anything from his love along with missing her and being worried for her deeply, one day, his patience could only hold out for so long and he purposely held back after a Hashira meeting to speak privately with Mitsuri. Obanai, who everyone knew had a crush on the love Hashira except for the love Hashira herself, was livid seeing him hang back to speak with Mitsuri while everyone else left.

"Kanroji-san…" Giyuu spoke.

Mitsuri could hardly believe it! Giyuu Tomioka was actually addressing her!? How could this be possible!?

"Who? Me?" Mitsuri asked, pointing at herself and looking around to see if maybe he had said the wrong name or something.

"Yes… I was hoping to ask you something…"

Mitsuri looked around, noticing that they were alone. She could hardly believe her ears. What could the water Hashira want?

"Sure Tomioka-san… what was it you were wanting to ask?"

Giyuu held his tongue and hesitated for a short moment. He and Shinobu hadn't really made things official yet and everything between them was still kept private, just between them. He wondered if it would be okay to ask Mitsuri about her? Would he come across as obvious?

"Is this about Shinobu-sama?" Mitsuri asked interrupting his thoughts.

Giyuu groaned in shock. How did she know!? Mitsuri laughed at his shocked expression.

"Tomioka-san, I am the love Hashira. I can always sense when two people are in love."

Giyuu sighed in defeat as although Mitsuri was indeed, the love Hashira, she wasn't exactly the brightest when it came to recognising when someone was head over heels for herself.

"Yes. It is. I'm worried about her. How come she doesn't join in the Hashira meetings? Why does she never leave the butterfly mansion as of late?"

It was as if a cat had caught her tongue as Mitsuri suddenly turned pink and looked as though she was keeping a big secret from him. Giyuu raised a brow to her in question.

"How should I know? She's your girlfriend! You should know!" Mitsuri blurted out in a high pitched voice all of a sudden.

"Well… I don't know… I haven't seen her in days and haven't really gotten the opportunity to ask her. I was hoping you could tell me since you two are best friends…"

Mitsuri gritted her teeth as if she was fighting against telling the truth. This only made Giyuu more suspicious.

"Sorry Tomioka-san… I have no idea why Shinobu-sama isn't taking part in the Hashira training… Now sorry to be abrupt but you must excuse me. It's about time for lunch and I am starving. Nice talking with you." Mitsuri spoke rather quickly and ran away as if it were her only chance to escape.

Giyuu was left more confused than ever. What was Shinobu keeping from him? Why had Mitsuri acted that way? He had always found her to be quite odd but not in a secretive type of way. All the other Hashira were gone… there was no one to really ask now. He would have to go to the Butterfly mansion himself. He had avoided visiting her privately at her home as to not provoke any attention towards them and to respect her space unless called upon but now… he just had to see her.


Later in the evening, Giyuu decided that he would go to the butterfly mansion tonight to visit Shinobu and ask her himself. He prepared a bento for her filled with rice and meat with plenty of vegetables to look like an excuse for him visiting at night if her girls were to question him.

Giyuu walked in the moonlight to the butterfly mansion and saw that the lights were dimly lit and the house itself didn't seem to be too active. He knocked at the front door and soon he was confronted by Aoi…

"State your business water Hashira." Aoi said in a cold tone.

Giyuu could tell that she still was upset with him for the way he had spoken to her that day a few weeks ago. Giyuu bowed to her, keeping his head low.

"I'm very sorry for the way I spoke to you that day. It was wrong of me. There's no excuse for my actions. I'm truly sorry for it." Giyuu apologized.

Aoi crossed her arms and narrowed her eyes though her demeanor eased up a little.

"Ok. What do you want?" She asked him. "I'm assuming you didn't come all this way just to apologize."

Giyuu stood back up straighter and lifted the bento in his hands.

"For Kochou… Is she here?"

Aoi eyed the bento in his hands.

"I can give it to her."

"I'd like to give it to her myself if that is alright." Giyuu replied.

Aoi suddenly displayed a concerned expression as she looked back behind her into the hallway as if to check that they were alone.

"Really, it's no issue. I can give it to her… Shinobu-sama… she's in bed… I'll see to it that she receives your kind gesture…" Aoi said, seeming to not allow him to pass through the front door.

"Oh… ok… I would appreciate that, thank you." Giyuu said as he gave the bento to the girl without protest.

"Good night… Tomioka-san…" Aoi said to him before hastily closing the door.

Now Giyuu definitely knew that something was up. It was like everyone knew something about his love that he didn't. His mind was racing with all different sorts of concerned thoughts for her and he wasn't going to leave without speaking to her and finding out the truth from her himself.

Giyuu leaped up to the roof of the butterfly mansion and crept through one of the open windows. Inside it was dark and empty. Where was Shinobu's room? He used his senses to try to navigate his way around. He had been to the infirmary and that was pretty much it. The butterfly mansion was a huge estate and a lot of people resided here. However… It was really quiet and there seemed to be hardly anyone around which was good for what he was doing right now but also unusual.

Giyuu walked quietly down the hallway and checked many empty rooms, unable to find her. He had to go downstairs. He made his way down without any trouble and he checked the hospital wing where he saw Tanjirou along with a few other demon slayers fast asleep in the rows of beds. Still no Shinobu.

After being unable to find her in the infirmary, he made his way further downstairs to the basement without making a sound or being spotted. He could now hear faint voices… there were two… a man and a woman's voice he couldn't recognise and then he heard Shinobu's voice. They were speaking quietly…

He made his way towards the door and gently opened it to peek through… his face went white with shock and horror at what was revealed.

How could he not sense them!? Demons! Two of them! They looked like humans but they weren't! Only a Hashira would be able to tell. His hand immediately gripped his sword until he saw Shinobu… She was seated at a table looking through a microscope as she conversed with the female demon about what she was analyzing.

Giyuu watched as the female demon lifted a small vial with a gloved hand. It contained a very dark black liquid with a tint of purple to it…

"You really ought not to drink anymore Shinobu-sama… it's what is causing you to be so ill… the pain caused you to pass out last time and I had to inject you with a very strong antidote to prevent you from slipping into a coma…" the female demon spoke.

Shinobu took the vial from her and Giyuu now finally saw her face… she was even more pale and sickly looking… his jaw dropped and his brows narrowed while his heart began to speed up. She didn't look okay at all.

"I know… but I must endure it… it is the only way…" Shinobu said quietly as she unscrewed the vial.

The female demon looked at Shinobu sadly and nodded understandingly. As Shinobu was about to drink the liquid, before the vial could even touch her lips, in a split second Giyuu rushed in, grabbed it from her hands and smashed it against the wall so that it shattered into pieces.

"GIYUU!?" Shinobu shouted standing up from her chair.

Giyuu retracted his sword to face the two demons who stood back from him. The female demon looked at the water Hashira in shock and fear as the male demon stepped in front of her and glared at Giyuu as if to protect her.

"No stop!" Shinobu shouted grabbing Giyuu's arm. "They're here by the request of Oyakata-sama!"

Giyuu glanced Shinobu out of the corner of his eye as he gradually lowered his arm. He knew that Shinobu wouldn't lie about something like that and he knew that in some cases… demons could be trusted. Giyuu sheathed his sword and turned to look at Shinobu, entirely forgetting about the two demons in an instant.

"What was in that vial?" He asked her in such a deep and expressionless tone that he actually scared her a little. He towered over her in a confronting manner.

Shinobu was silent as her chin quivered. She looked at him in shock, she had never expected him to find her here let alone catch her in her secret act she had been doing for over a year now.

Annoyed with Shinobu's silence, Giyuu marched over to the smashed vial where the liquid had splattered and dragged his finger along the small puddle. He put his finger to his lips and immediately felt a burning sensation… Just a tiny drop caused him an immense amount of pain. Giyuu stood back up and slowly turned to Shinobu, rubbing the liquid between his fingers.

"Poison…" he said. "You've been consuming wisteria poison…"

Shinobu remained quiet as she avoided eye contact with her lover and balled her hands into fists.

"Why would you drink this? You said you were taking medicine, not poison!"

"Giyuu, I will explain everything but could you first please calm down and lower your voice?" Shinobu quietly replied.

"Calm down!? Lower my voice!? What is there to explain!? You're trying to kill yourself! And for what!? Why would you do this!?" Giyuu angrily shouted, walking up to her and placing his hands on her cheeks to make her look at him.

Shinobu looked at him in terror and she felt tears form in her eyes. She had never seen him in such a scary state before. His eyes were wide with worry and concern.

"Is it for revenge? I know just what you're thinking baby and please don't do it! You owe it to your sister to live for her not to die! Especially not in a way that you would sacrifice your body to poison upper moon two! If it's revenge you want I'll kill that fucking demon myself!" Instinctively, Giyuu grabbed Shinobu and pulled her body against his so that he could wrap her in his tight and protective embrace.

"I don't want you to kill him! I want to kill him! It has to be me!" Shinobu shouted right back attempting to pull away from Giyuu but found herself locked in his arms.

"You don't have to drink that anymore. I promise you that I'll kill the upper moon two for you. I'll kill him. I promise baby. Stop drinking that poison and get healthy again."

This only made Shinobu furious with a heated rage and she punched her small fist to his sides trying to get him to release her but he responded by kissing her head and holding her tighter.

"Fuck off Giyuu! I'm going to be the one who kills him! I don't care if I die! I'm going to kill him if it's the last thing that I do! Stop interfering! This has been my goal for the last four years!"

"No. I won't let you! I won't stand by and let that demon eat you!" Giyuu stated as he held her to him as if she was going to run away and go after upper moon two as soon as he let go. "I love you. I love you too much to let this happen! I refuse to let it happen!"

"This is exactly why I didn't want to tell you! I knew you wouldn't understand! I knew you would try to stop me!" Shinobu shouted, her voice a wreck as tears flowed endlessly from her eyes.

At that moment everything now made sense. All the other Hashira must've known for a while now. This was the big secret. This was the reason why she was absent and not taking part in Hashira Training.

"I understand why you want to do it. I lost my sister too. I know exactly the hatred and rage that you feel. I just don't care! I will not let it happen!"

Giyuu felt tears form in his own eyes as he felt his heart breaking at just the thought of losing her.

"I won't lose you. I will die before I would ever let that happen."

Shinobu was quiet as she just stood still in his embrace, whimpering and crying into his chest. She realized that Giyuu really did love her. Their relationship was very new to them both yet Giyuu was already so loyal and protective. She slowly raised her arms to gently wrap around his waist.

"I'm sorry…" Shinobu uttered. "This is my fault… I shouldn't have come to you that night…"

"No baby. You've brought the best out in me. You've made me feel love again and I thank you for that. I believe I have always loved you… I'm sorry it took a while for me to realize…"

Shinobu quietly sobbed at his words. Now she didn't know what to do. She loved her sister… She also loved Giyuu. One future led to avenging Kanae and dying happily knowing that Douma would die in wuthering agony paying for murdering her sister all the while the other path led to a full and happy life with her lover… Giyuu.

Shinobu suddenly realized that all of this had happened right in front of Tamayo and Yushiro… she glanced over at them to see that Tamayo was looking down at the ground sadly as if she understood where the both of them were coming from. Had she been in a similar situation before? Yushiro still stood guard in front of Tamayo, eyeing them with disgust.

"Sorry…" Shinobu quietly said as she released Giyuu and placed her hands on his to gently tug them apart so as to set her free from his embrace.

Giyuu let go of her but immediately reached for her hand to hold in his. He was extra clingy now.

"Giyuu, come with me upstairs so that we may talk in a place that is more private. I'm so sorry you had to see this Tamayo-san… Yushiro-san…" Shinobu bowed her apologies however Giyuu didn't. He now resented anyone who knew she was taking the poison and didn't try hard enough to stop her or persuade her not to.

Before Yushiro could open his mouth and start rambling on about how rude, inappropriate and problematic they were, Tamayo made sure to speak first.

"That's quite alright Shinobu-sama. We are in your home after all. I completely understand the way you both must be feeling and I hope you come to a settlement." Tamayo spoke.

Yushiro thought that she was being too easy on them but nonetheless, he held his tongue and spoke his mind through a hard glare towards the pair.


Shinobu led Giyuu upstairs. It was quiet and dark as everyone had gone to bed. They walked hand in hand uncaring if anyone were to see them. Shinobu led him to the kitchen where Aoi was finishing off the last of the dishes. She turned around and was shocked to see the distressed state of her master who had puffy red eyes from crying and her cheeks were wet with tears. She looked at Tomioka, surprised to see him inside and then noticed that they were holding hands.

"Sumimasen!" Aoi immediately said, bowing before the pair.

"Don't be sorry Aoi… we're just getting a hot drink. Please… if you don't mind… could you please run me a bath dear?" Shinobu asked her sweetly yet her voice whimpered a bit as she was still rather upset.

Seeing her master cry, Aoi made to walk forward to comfort her and ask what was wrong but stopped herself… she would have to ask later.

"Yes of course Shinobu-sama. I'll prepare it for you right away." Aoi said and then made her way to leave in order to do just that.

Shinobu walked with Giyuu over to the counter and poured some already made hot tea into two cups. Giyuu moved behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"I'm sorry baby." He whispered and pressed a kiss to the back of her head.

She didn't say anything but turned around while still being in his embrace to hold up a cup of tea for him. He took it with one hand keeping the other around her waist and they both drank in silence.

After a while, Aoi returned. Her cheeks turned red as she saw her master and the water Hashira drinking tea together but in a close proximity and Tomioka had one arm holding her master's waist as with the other he drank his tea.

Aoi cleared her throat and the two looked towards her. She gulped at seeing them not bother to break apart or not even attempt to hide anything. Since when have the two been so comfortable with each other? Aoi would've never guessed! She couldn't wait to tell Kanao and the others.

"Shinobu-sama, your bath is ready." Aoi announced.

"Thank you Aoi." Shinobu placed her cup down as did Giyuu.

Shinobu walked up to Aoi and placed a kiss against her forehead.

"You have a good night my sweet." She said as she exited the kitchen with Giyuu following behind her.

Aoi just pretended that she didn't see them walking to the baths together and went on with the rest of her night.

They made their way to the bathing quarters of the butterfly mansion. The tubs weren't like normal bathtubs, they were built in the ground and were large with accessibility for injured or disabled demon slayers. The bath Aoi had prepared for Shinobu was filled with a lavender aroma and held a lot of healing ointments and soothing properties to it. The steam coming from the tub immediately caused their bodies to relax.

Shinobu began to undress herself in front of Giyuu, removing her haori first.

"Would you like me to leave?" Giyuu politely asked her.

Shinobu didn't say a word but gave him a look that said otherwise. She placed her soft hands atop his shoulders and removed his haori too. Giyuu felt his stomach tighten as she began undoing his buttons one by one. He suddenly lurched with desire for her.

Giyuu did the same, they both undid each other's buttons and removed their upper garments for one another. The rest they did themselves and soon they were both naked before each other's gaze. There was no point in trying to hide it but Giyuu was already aroused for her as his eyes glazed over her perfect petite frame. She was absolutely stunning and he wanted her badly. Even when looking sick she put other ladies' beauty to shame from her toned yet small build and beautiful features.

Shinobu grabbed his hand and led Giyuu into the bath and they both slowly stepped into the water. Giyuu sat down and pulled Shinobu towards him. She sat on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck running her fingers through his hair. Her core sat against his erection, the feel of her wet petals against his cock along with the relaxation ointments mixed in with the water was all too much for them and their eyes drooped with lust. Shinobu closed the space between them and pressed her lips to Giyuu's. Giyuu placed his hand to the back of her head pulling her in for more. Their tongues entangled with each other as the kiss deepened with love and lust and wanting more of each other.

Shinobu rocked her hips and Giyuu felt his dick suddenly slip inside of her without warning. He groaned as she grinded against him, raising her hips up and down. Giyuu matched her rhythm and thrusted up into her rough and hard startling her with a pleasurable moan. He wrapped his arms around her back and held her tightly to him, feeling her breasts press up against his chest making his arousal all the more high.

Shinobu licked his ear and nipped at it as she released a soft and breathy moan against it. Her moans were driving him to the edge as he thrusted inside of her. He gritted his teeth focusing on penetrating her as deep as he could. They were both getting closer to reaching their climax.

Shinobu kissed his neck and then whispered in his ear, "I love you." And that's what drove him to the edge… he felt her walls tighten against his cock as she orgasmed and soon after his dick flinched and he filled her with his warm seed.

They both breathed heavily as Shinobu buried her head into the crook of his neck, hugging him tightly. Giyuu grazed his hands against her back and they stayed like that for a while. Cuddling each other.

"I'm sorry I swore at you…" Shinobu whispered into his neck.

"That's okay baby. I'm sorry I yelled at you." He replied lovingly and kissed her shoulder.

"I was so mean to you…" she said in a shy tone, still burying her face into his neck as if to hide away in shame.

"No you weren't. You were just being honest and I love you for it."

Shinobu leaned her head back to look deeply into his eyes Giyuu gazed at her, she looked beautiful and had an aftersex glow to her.

"You're so beautiful." He stated as he reached up to tuck a loose strand of her hair behind her ear. His eyes fell to her breasts with an almost hungry gaze and before she knew it, his tongue and lips were all over her chest. Shinobu shot her head back with a quiet moan as he lavished at her breasts as sparks of pleasure shot through her system.

Shinobu placed her hand under his chin and leaned her forehead against his and pressed her lips softly to his, giving him a sweet and short peck. She soon stood up off of Giyuu and felt his dick slide out of her. He gritted his teeth at the feeling and he hooked his arm around her waist so that she now sat on top of his lap with her back toward him. She wrapped her arms around the back of his shoulders and gave him a small smile much like her usual one she normally displayed.

He reached for some vanilla scented body wash and squirted it against a washcloth. He began rubbing it against her entire body. When he caressed the cloth against her inner thigh, she placed her hand on his and guided him to her core. He smirked and began washing her there. He heard her quietly moan as he rubbed the cloth against her which entirely aroused him more. He let go of the cloth and used his fingers to massage her clit. When he saw how turned on she still was and how much she was enjoying his fingers, he entered his middle finger inside of her and began creating a whole new orgasm for her. She held onto his neck as he fingered her feeling just where her g spot was and he made sure to focus on that area whilst entering a second finger in as his thumb stimulated her clit. Giyuu licked and bit her neck as she came against his fingers this time and he had left a second mark on her neck that was a stinging red.

Shinobu turned and kissed him sloppily, letting her tongue devour every inch of his mouth as he responded just as highly aroused back. She reached down between them and Giyuu was now hard again. Shinobu jerked him off in her palm and then ordered him to stand up.

He stood up and his erection sprung to life out of the water. Shinobu kneeled down and stroked him, causing him to groan. He looked down at her and caught her lustful gaze as she licked her lips then soon took him in her mouth. Giyuu struggled to hold back a loud moan as she sucked his dick. She took him all the way in till he reached the back of her throat as she moved between sucking him off and stroking him in her hand. Giyuu closed his eyes and grasped her hair as he couldn't help but rock his hips forward into her wet mouth. She fondled his balls and he groaned as he came. She swallowed all of his cum and then released him from her mouth.

Giyuu picked her up off of the ground and lifted her with ease as she wrapped her arms and legs around him. Their lips collided and they kissed, both fighting for dominance.

After their lustful activities, Giyuu and Shinobu both washed each other properly and soon after got changed into fresh dressing robes.

It was much later in the evening and they were lying in Shinobu's bed in her master bedroom. Their legs were entangled with each other as Shinobu laid her head on top of Giyuu's chest as she breathed quietly still awake, she felt his hand tracing circles on her back. They were both so tired and just so comfortable that it was easy to fall asleep laying in each other's embrace and they woke up the next morning feeling better rested than ever however there was a bit of tension.

They were both quiet in the morning. They both knew that they were awake yet none of them spoke. It was because they hadn't actually talked about what had happened last night. It was proper for them to have this conversation after sleeping on it. Shinobu sat up and leaned against the headboard. Giyuu did the same. It felt odd to not be holding her while they were in bed together; however, this was an indication of just how serious Shinobu was wanting to be when discussing anything to do with her revenge for her sister's death. Makeup sex wasn't going to magically fix everything.

"Giyuu…" Shinobu started. "You know how much I want to avenge my sister's death. You know my hatred for upper moon two… I want to kill him. I want to see the life leave his eyes. I want to see him suffer and to be sure that he dies a most painful death. It can't be quick and easy like beheading… it has to be done through my most lethal poison."

Giyuu stayed quiet as he listened to her words.

"I'm sorry… I just can't stand by as you sacrifice your body for the sake of revenge. I won't let him eat you."

"I know. Which is why for you, I have decided that I will no longer drink the poison."

Giyuu turned to look at her and saw that she was being sincere with her words. She leaned closer to him with a serious look on her face.

"What I want is for you to train with me. I want to be at my strongest when the time comes for me to confront Douma. If I am to stand a proper chance against him, I will need to increase my strength and allow the poison to leave my body completely so that it won't slow me down."

Giyuu immediately placed a palm on her cheek and leaned in to kiss her. Shinobu placed her hand against his palm as she responded lovingly back.

"I'm not going to let you fight him alone. I'll be by your side. We will kill him together. I will happily help you to train, baby. He won't stand a chance against the two of us. Thank you for agreeing to stop taking the poison. I love you so much."

"Thank you baby, I love you too." Shinobu replied and they shared more morning kisses and cuddles.
