My back slams against the door with just the right amount of force and passion, my breath fleeing my lungs before Samantha’s devouring lips come and steal away the last gasp of my shock and exhilaration. I feel my legs starting to give out as she forces her tongue past my lips, my center being supported by her raised knee as she pins me to the cold, etched wood. My fingers fly to her face, the burning warmth underneath her skin sending pulses of lava through my veins, another moan being violently pulled from my throat as she begins rubbing her leg between mine.
With equally hungry hands, she switches from using my shoulders as leverage to my breasts, kneading and plunging her fingers underneath the battle robe as it slips off my frame, sinking them deep into the giving and sensitive flesh which was her target. I briefly realize that she must have shucked off her gloves before that point since I can feel her nails scraping along my mauled skin, but my mind quickly evaporates as she lunges down to my neck with bared teeth, sucking and biting the throbbing pulse that rapidly increases in speed while she jostles and grasps my chest.
I feel my core tightening, ratcheting up and winding the spring as she molds and deforms my tits, sometimes dropping down to kiss or bite my nipples which send pink arcs of delightfully pleasant and painful lightning coursing through me, before once again returning to capture my lips or suck on my pulse. All the while, my hips rock against her growingly dampening leather work pants, my feet raised to tip toes because of how high she has me elevated and pinned, just enough that I struggle to get a good rhythm that would see me to release.
I open my mouth to whimper in frustration, but the second I do I feel myself being spun around, my face and chest aggressively pressed up against the wooden frame with a dull *thunk*. Cool basement air caresses my ass, its kiss sharp and implication heavy as I feel Samantha’s warm breath bake on the side of my face. “So eager, little pup~. I love it when my partner is desperate to please, desperate for release~. Is that what you want?”
I try to respond, my voice struggling to form amidst the sea of lust and desire, before I feel a hand come down to slap against my ass and rest there. Not nearly enough to hurt in the slightest, just enough shock me, to grab my attention, and then moan out in ecstasy as it claws its digits into the meaty muscles and eager nerves there. “Well~?” I hear her sultry voice echo inside my mind, her hot exhales shaking strands of my crimson hair loose from their perch behind my ear as she keeps groping and fondling my ass, “Tell me what you desire, little pup~.”
I’m about to turn to face her – at least as much as I can as she basically has her head nuzzled right next to mine – but out of the corner of my eye I see something that makes my blood run cold. At the foot of the stone stairway, just some 30 or so feet away, are two burning red eyes bathed in shadow, whisps of dark tendrils waving angrily as they billow out coal like smoke through the hall. Sam must notice too, because I swear to the Heavens I actually hear her heart stop for a solid couple of seconds as she stands stock still against me in our… compromising positions.
“Ara~.” The discordant and echoey voice that now sounds like a raging river instead of the usual babbling brook as the much taller kitsune takes a single step forward, her shrouded form seemingly taking up the entire space of the hallway as those piercing, red eyes bore down to the both of us. “I came to fetch the two of you and inform you that Gerra has prepared breakfast, to see if you wished to partake in a meal together before training began in earnest, but what do I hear when I begin my search?”
The very upset Jun Li continues to slowly march towards our now cowering forms, both Samantha and I hugging each other in near panic as the edges of obsidian air tinges around our feet, her shoes making methodical, glacial steps that echo ominously off the stonework. “A heartfelt confession, a lovely speech, and then… well. I believe I have discovered the causes for those other sounds and sultry gasps that came afterwards, wouldn’t you both agree?” She crosses the last few feet between us in a flash, her disembodied eyes appearing right in front of Samantha as she says out harshly, almost in a lecturing voice if it wasn’t for all the terrifying studio effects behind it, namely a blast of dark smoke striking harmlessly against her face.
“Samantha Armenest Royunblok. You are supposed to be instructing Amelia on combat techniques, your craft, and aiding her in adjusting to various weapons and armor usage right now. Is that what you are doing currently?” Jun Li questions resolutely, those ruby red orbs nearly catching fire from the intensity of her gaze. Samantha shakes her head against my face a couple times, her body slightly trembling as she withers underneath the pissed off glare being shown her as she envelops me in a nearly bone crushing hug.
I gulp nervously, torn between wanting to reassure Jun Li and come to Sam’s defense, but also not wanting that same devastating stare leveled at me in the slightest. The choice, sadly, is taken out of my hands as that exact fear comes to pass. As soon as Sam gives her non-verbal answer, Jun Li flicks her vision over to me, cold sweat forming out of every pore as she just stares at me wordlessly for a few moments. I’m about to legitimately whimper and beg for forgiveness for my sins before those fiery orbs close shut and I hear a heavy sigh as the massive amounts of pressure dissipates slowly out of the air around us.
The usual shape of Jun Li materializes back into reality, her tall and curvy figure, raven colored hair that has a marvelous shine to it, her pure black furred ears and trio of tails which are twitching side to side in a complicated emotion that I can’t fully read. Adorned in a – admittedly very pretty – dark purple robe, she once more opens her eyes which have lost a good portion of harshness as she looks down to me sitting prone on the ground with Sam in my arms.
“Amelia. I am overjoyed that you and Samantha have taken the next step together, even if a part of me wishes I had been the first of our trio to reach such heights.” She says with a pout at the end, briefly turning her head to the side as a frown crosses her face. I can’t help but feel a bit bad, almost like I led her on or something even if I do intend to deepen our connection too, but before I can voice any kind of response she turns back to me and continues.
“However, that does not mean that the two of you can simply scurry away in a tryst like some teenage mortal couple who have just discovered what another’s body feels like. Especially while you have such important matters to see to. The Madam set this schedule for a reason, taking into account your system’s ability to give you strength through intimate actions, yet she still arrived at this format regardless of that fact. It is imperative that you adhere to it and treat each day and teaching with the utmost seriousness. There will be time after your studying hours to have such… engaging activities, and I sincerely hope that you will not solely choose to have them with dear Samantha, but right now is not the time for such acts.” Another huff sounds out of her, noticing the state of both of Samantha and me as we still sit huddled on the ground.
She extends her hands down to both Sam and I which we accept shakily as she pulls us to our feet, giving us each another look before a more neutral voice comes out once more, “I do not relish in having to be the loud and clucking mother hen, dictating orders and robbing you of what was surely a very enjoyable and romantic moment, but please take what I have said to heart and control yourselves until after dinner time at the least. It is of the highest importance that you learn the proper means to defend yourself, especially against other cultivators Amelia. And it is crucial that you teach her properly, Samantha, with neither of you having your heads clouded by the heady fumes of lust while the lesson is being taught. Do I make myself clear?”
Samantha instantly responds, albeit still without saying a word, as she rapidly ducks her head up and down in answer. It’s rather cute, or at least it would be if the reason for it wasn’t that fear inducing display from Miss J. I follow suit, actually giving her some words for the first time since she stomped down here as I respond in an apologetic tone, “We’ll do exactly like you said, Jun Li. Sorry that we got kind of… carried away. And I promise, I’m done waiting around and second guessing my feelings on this kind of thing. It’s obvious how much you guys care about me, and I’m just hurting all of us by being hesitant and unsure.”
A small, soft smile pokes at Jun Li’s lips as she turns back toward the stairwell, her head ever so faintly still regarding the pair of us behind her as she says out coyly, “I shall hold you to that, Miss Amelia. Hopefully among other things~. Now, you two either follow me and eat, or get to training. The light of the sky does not stop its march for any mortal.”
I turn to Samantha who still looks a bit shaken up by the confrontation, which is just no help at all right now even if I completely understand it, so I decide to just go with how I’m feeling in the moment. “Honestly, I still want to get in one of these rooms and see how everything’s changed and try out some new stuff. And you just spooked me so bad I’m not sure if I’d even be able to eat right now, even if it is Gerra’s cooking *Cough*.”
Jun Li lets out a bubbling laugh, the last remaining tension in the air thankfully dispelling before she simply nods and continues moving on toward the stairs. Samantha and I let out a sigh of relief, just in time for Jun Li’s stern voice to echo back down the still chilly halls and make us stand ramrod straight once more, “I mean it. No sexual play while teaching. Samantha, make sure you bring Miss Amelia up for lunch since the two of you decided to skip breakfast.”
Neither of us move a muscle, intently listening to the sound of Jun Li’s fading clacks of her sandals drift into nothingness before we finally turn to look at each other again, exhaling loudly in security this time. “Holy shit… I didn’t think Miss J wo-” I begin to say before I feel a finger whip forward and onto my mouth. My eyes go a bit wide as I take in Sam shaking her head a few times and then pointing toward the door, more specifically the controls for the enemies and such.
I give her a nod, after which she removes the rude finger and I move back as she fiddles with the controls, seemingly coming up with some solution that she deems acceptable as she begins feeding Qi into the network of glyphs and then opening the door for us to enter. I step inside quickly, shortly followed by Sam as she shuts the large, special door with a resounding *thunk* of wood fitting against its brace. As soon as she closes it, she lets out a larger groan than I’ve ever produced, falling to her knees as she runs her hands through her hair.
Shocked, I rush to her side and hold her against me, knowing that I’m nowhere near strong enough to stop her sudden war against her pretty brown curls. “Sam?! What’s wrong?” I ask out with concern, although I probably know the answer to that question already…
“What’s wrong?! Amelia, that was the most upset I’ve seen that sultry and devilish fox in decades, and I am the target of that ire! She used my entire given birth name! When the Mistress returns in a full capacity, I fear that I will not see the sun or my forge for at least a year!” Samantha exclaims back, turning to face me with honest-to-gods tears in her eyes. Oh fuck, this may be a bit more serious than I was thinking…
My voice mixes with uncertainty and a little bit of guilt as I respond back, “W-well, maybe she’ll forget about it by the time Akiko comes home! Or, or, maybe she won’t hold a grudge for that long, especially since I’m kind of… ya know… planning on following up with her next. I loved the kiss we shared – and how dominating you were by the way~ – don’t get me wrong! But I genuinely do feel bad for her. She was the first one to outright say she wanted to become romantic with me and we’ve just missed any points to try and reach that level together before you and I had that moment.”
Samantha hiccups once before putting her head on my shoulder, the force and weight of the impact nearly knocking me over as her hands come up to clutch against the battle kimono, “You do not understand, Amelia, you have not been here long enough to see how long that woman can keep her slights in mind. And while she seems to have brushed most of it off, to which I am ever thankful for my divine luck, she and I will undoubtedly be spending quite some time together as compensation for my transgressions…”
“I mean…” I begin to reply back shakily, the thought of Jun Li locking me in a room all to ourselves not sounding like the worst time ever… If she didn’t go full smoke demon monster thing, of course. “Is that really so bad? You guys all love each other, surely some payback sex isn’t the worst outcome in the world? Even if it kind of feels unwarranted from where I’m sitting.”
The crying blonde leans back, her mouth mightily pouting as she shakes her head, her pitiful lips trembling as her watery eyes take on a doe like appearance. I swear, if she keeps acting this adorable and cute I’m going to lose it, which is the last thing either of us want right now! I just can’t wrap my head around her having this side to her personality! All I see when I think of Sam is the stoic warrior fighting off hordes of baddies with a fuck off huge sword or something, not this sweet little soot-stained angel who’s trembling in my arms! Ugh, its just too much!!
Her wavering voice breaks me out of my spiraling mental processing error as she says, “No, Amelia, it will be torturous. Jun Li is a carnal master, rivaling the Mistress. Especially when she deigns to use her… special pills and concoctions… The few times I have rallied enough courage to try and best her in the realm of pleasure, I have always felt like my very soul was nearly ripped from my body, my mind shattered and my muscles withered…” A full-bodied shiver erupts out of her before she looks back to me and keeps on, “I will be lucky to remain sane through and after this next ordeal, mark my words!”
Is it… Is it bad that I kind of want to see this happen? Like, to be in the room watching as Jun Li goes to town on her? I cough, trying to dislodge the newly developing kink as well as the perpetual horniness that has returned in full force apparently as I hug her to my chest again. “Shh… It’s okay, I’ll talk to her later and when her and I are together for training or on dates or something. I’ll make sure she doesn’t do anything crazy as ‘retribution’, alright?”
Sam nods against my breasts, sniffling a couple times before she seems to regain control over herself and break away from the hug. “I.. I am sorry you had to see that side of me, Amelia. Truly, there are few things I fear and love more in this world than the prospect of an angered Jun Li.” She helps both of us stand up, wiping away a few tears with her sleeve, which also produces a new smudge of black on her face, as she turns back to me and smiles softly. “And thank you, for your offer. I know not if it will temper her displeasure, but I shall take all the aid you are willing to provide in my defense. I do not want to be separated from my forge for so long…” Well, she almost regained her steadfast nature, but that last thought once again makes her eyes watery as she begins to rub her eyes with her hands.
I can’t help but chuckle at the frankly insanely appealing and tender personality shift she’s capable of, my mind remembering Akiko mentioning that underneath that hard shell she wears, she’s actually a big softie, or something like that. Seeing her now? Totally checks out, even if its kind of weird that its for her forge of all things that’s triggering it, but hey everyone’s different~! I give her another hug, using my much cleaner robe to dot her eyes as we stand apart once again.
“I’ll do my best Sam~. Maybe I can get you conjugal visits to the forge even if she decides to lock you up and throw away the key~? Hehe~.” I say as I give her a cheeky wink.
She responds by shooting me a glare that only feels half-heart felt before turning around and walking towards the center of the room. “What a clever spinner of words you can be when you choose so, little pup. Let us begin if you are satisfied with your teasing.”
Whether it’s the lingering horniness, the soft and gentle side she just showed me, or me just feeling confident for absolutely no reason, I try one last little jab of verbal fencing. With my hip shot to the side, a hand coming to rest on it like when I was teasing Ios earlier, I flirtily say back, “What~? You tease me all the time, Samantha, but the moment I do it after we kiss you can’t take it? Hardly seems fair, doesn’t it? Aren’t you some big, strong warrior who’s able to take anything thrown at them~?”
Before Samantha even turns around, I can feel my heartbeat accelerating to hyperdrive levels, my internal voice screaming at me and asking what the fuck I’m doing throughout that whole little exchange, but something inside of me just couldn’t stop myself from being such a brat. Internal cringing aside, I do my best to keep up my front of haughtiness as Sam’s head slowly creaks back around to face me, my throat getting caught on air as shivers laser down my spine from the narrowed eyes she levels toward me.
“I pray your system has seen fit to give you inhuman stamina, little pup, because after you appease Jun Li tonight, I am coming to repay you for those words. Now, come here and cease trying to seduce me into angering the kitsune any further.” Her words are sharp, crisp, and offer no confusion about the fate I just sealed for myself. And through it all, I can only think one thing as my wobbly legs awkwardly bring my widely smiling face to where she is standing so that she can go over the specifics of the training room setup: Perfect~
