True Dedication

Chapter 11

The portal opened outside Kurama's house. It was evening now, the streetlights turning on as bugs flew around the bright orbs. Botan waved goodbye as she disappeared a slight frown marring her features I hope they work this out, for their own good.

The three companions stood on the front lawn in silence, the tension between them crackling in the air. No one made a move or ventured to speak, not sure of what to say, each waiting for the other to make a move.

"I suppose we all turn in for tonight and meet up-" A fist collided with Kurama’s jaw and sent him skidding across the lawn. He dug his foot into the ground to halt his velocity. He brought his right hand up to his inflamed cheek as he checked for damage. His eyes flickered to gold as he focused on the energy emitting from his lover. Yusuke's eyes bled red for a second then turned back to their normal chocolate hue.

"That, Kurama, is a warning. If I so much as feel that you betrayed me I won't hesitate to finish what I started." He threatened as his fiery gaze settled on Hiei who startled out of his shock. He took a step back as Yusuke stomped to where he stood. Sizing him up, Yusuke raised his eyebrow in disgust. "And you," He grabbed hold of Hiei's cloaked form, drew his hand back and smashed it into his gut. Hiei felt his body give in and fell to the ground, holding his stomach and wincing when he saw Yusuke's foot in front of his face. "If you so much as think you have claim on Kurama, you are mistaken, my friend. He is mine and I'll be damned if you try and take him."

Satisfied that he finally settled himself down he glanced back at his lover and teammate, Yusuke walked towards the front door, opened it and slipped inside, leaving it cracked. Kurama still held his hand to his bruised cheek and made his way to help Hiei to his feet when the smaller apparition swatted his hand away.

"I do not need your assistance, fox." Hiei rose to his feet, dusting himself off. "I will tell Mukuro what we have learned." He flitted away.

The cool evening breeze brought it a sense of foreboding. Kurama was left alone outside and dreaded entering his own home. Get a hold of yourself. If he truly wanted to do you bodily harm you would not be standing here. His mind supplied as he stepped into the house. His hand reached out to flip the light switch when a pair of lips crushed onto his, stealing his breath away. Kurama's eyes fluttered close as he surrender to the dominating abuse of his mouth, a throaty moan escaping through and swallowed by his assailant.

He felt hands traveling the expanse of his chest, neck, arms and slid down his sides, pinning him to the now closed door. His heart thumped against his ribcage and he could feel his arousal spiking, smelling it on the air.

"I wonder," Yusuke started as his left hand traveled up Kurama's chest and settled on his nipple, twisting it harshly and then rubbing it soothingly with his index and thumb, "what should be your punishment, Fox." His right hand rested on the fox's back, bringing him fully against Yusuke's firmer form. Kurama whimpered as he tried to keep focused on Yusuke's words and not what he was doing to his body.

"Please...love..."

"Did I say you could speak?" Yusuke pinched Kurama's bottom earning him a startled cry. He smirked and pinched the other cheek, the same mewling cry escaping those kissed swollen lips. "Now as I was saying how should I punish you for this. I have heard many ways demons taught their lovers lessons. My stay in demon world wasn't all training you know. I ventured here and there and picking up on the local gossips you learn a few things. Like this..." Yusuke brought his mouth to Kurama's porcelain neck and bit down hard, the taste of blood flowing into his hungry mouth. Kurama cried out and clutched Yusuke's shoulders not expecting that at all. "Hmm delicious..."

Yusuke walked away from Kurama, taking the stairs one at a time until he stopped on the middle step, his eyes glowing eerily in the darkened house. "I think it would be in your best interest to follow, Kurama." He continued up towards their bedroom and smirked when he felt Kurama's unsteady youki following slowly behind him.

You have nothing to fear...If he wished you harm he could have done away with you...this is his way of...Kurama's hand rubbed at the bite wound on his neck and winced. It stung and he felt vulnerable...too much so. Is this part of what females feel when they go into their heat cycles...afraid of what may come...He didn't register that he was standing in the arch of the door or the fact that Yusuke was standing in front of him, eyes staring at him intently.

"Yusuke I-"

"You what, Kurama? You regret having sex with Hiei? Did you ever once, once, tell yourself that it was wrong. Did you try to control yourself or did you want it? Want him again!" Yusuke's voice raised a bit on the last sentence, his heart was hurting and he turned away not able to look at his lover.

"I did...please believe me I wanted to...no tried to stop...my heart ached for you and only you...but my body...it betrayed me and...and..." Kurama fell to his knees, his head resting into the palms of his hands as he felt his body shake with the effort to hold back his tears. I will not break down. I will face this and take whatever he bestows upon me. He stifled his tears and rose up on one knee, his head bowed low the bangs hiding his eyes. "I wanted to stop...to run and escape but I did not and for that I am at fault. I allowed my better judgment to be clouded and succumbed to my baser urges. Hiei is as much a victim as you, however," He looked up into Yusuke's eyes, his specked with golden flecks mixed with deep viridian, "I will not continue to grovel and beg you for forgiveness. if you do not find this adequate then I suggest you find yourself another." His voice dropped an octave as he rose up on both legs, his eyes challenging Yusuke.

Yusuke stared at Kurama for a while, weighing the pros and cons. He took a step forward until they were a hairsbreadth from each other. Yusuke's searching Kurama for any falsehoods while Kurama studied his lover calculatingly. This was Yusuke's decision to proceed with their relationship or dismiss him, either way he would survive...he hoped. Blinking his confusion when Yusuke picked him up by his shirt collar and pinning him to the door, his teeth bared and nose flaring. He crushed their mouths together with bruising force, slipping his tongue out to swipe at the fox's for entrance. Kurama released a keening whimper and surrendered to the kiss, bringing his arms to wrap securely around Yusuke's waist, holding him tight against him. Yusuke took full advantage, plundering his fox's mouth and wiping out any memory of Hiei from his lover's mind.

From now on, you will only think of me...when you touch yourself you imagine it's my hands or my lips. Yusuke's mind growled as his mouth dipped lower to the bite he made earlier and laved at it soothingly, leaving butterfly kisses in his wake. His hands traveled to the small of Kurama's back pressing them even more closer. He felt Kurama's arousal poking his thigh and grinned cheekily. That's it...only I can do this for you. Yusuke's eyes roved over the clothed form and sucked in a breath. "Too much..." His hands slipped under the tunic and drew it over the fox's head, Kurama raising his arms in compliance. As soon as the material was off Yusuke attacked his neck, sucking on his Adam's apple hungrily. Kurama fell back against the door, his left hand tangling in his lover's black locks while his right tugged on Yusuke's khaki pants fumbling with the zipper.

"Ah ah ah, not so fast there Kurama, I said I have to punish you for your crime." Yusuke chastised his lover removing Kurama's hand from his pants. He hooked his right leg behind the kitsune's and turned them around, Kurama's back facing the bed. With a smirk that should not be placed on that boyish face, Yusuke shoved his lover towards the bed, the fox hitting his leg as he toppled onto the mattress. His eyes wide with shock and he growled low in his throat. "Oh now you resorted to growling at me, well then let's see how you fair with this." Yusuke circled the bed, Kurama following him with his eyes, back reared up in warning.

Yusuke chuckled lowly as he smelt the overwhelming scent permeating the air. Hmm is this what Hiei was talking about, he does smell delicious. He licked his lips unconsciously and felt Kurama bristle. "Fuck Kurama, you do smell freaking good..." He inhaled deeply and found himself growling in appreciation. Kurama's eyes turn to slits as he bounded off the bed and tackled Yusuke to the ground, his fangs had elongated and his claws soon following.

"On the contrary Yusuke it is you who smells intoxicating." The fox's baritone voice sent chills down the mazoku's spine and he groaned. Kurama chuckled this time, holding both of Yusuke's wrist with his left hand while the other unzipped the pants he worked on before. "Indeed, very intoxicating." Kurama licked a path from Yusuke's cheek to his neck loving the way his lover trembled under him. "I do believe I was promised my punishment but the roles have been reversed. Pity, I have to take things in my own hand." He emphasized his meaning when he pulled at Yusuke's growing erection and gave it a quick jerk. Yusuke's eyes closed tightly as he hissed.

"I never said you could get off the bed, did I?" Yusuke growling through his teeth, flipping their positions and glaring down at the now amused fox. He removed the hand from his cock and pinched the fox's bottom again, the quick inhale making him smile in victory. His eyes searched the room for something to keep the fox in place and found hanging on the closed closet door a leather belt. Grinning like a cat who found the catnip, he inched over and yanked the thing from the door handle.

The fox huffed in annoyance as his prey moved away from him. He got onto his feet and went to subdue his lover when Yusuke pounced him to the bed, with quick reflexes he learned from his training had the fox's wrists bound to the headboard with an indignant expression. Nodding his approval Yusuke stood beside the bed watching as Kurama tried to break free.

"Not going to happen fox-boy. You were right about one thing though, punishment was something I wanted to dish out to you, but hell we know where that will lead us so I'm going to forgo it." Yusuke shrugged his shoulders and walked towards the bedroom door.

Kurama pulled at the bindings again and noticed they were imbued with Yusuke's own spirit energy. Curse him. I cannot break these in the state I am in. "Yusuke come back and untie me!" He felt pathetic and weak and vulnerable again. Then allow me to help you with your situation. The energy in the room crackled and Yusuke had just opened the door when the spike in the air sent a jolt up his spine.

What the hell...He turned slowly to see the fox's youki embracing him in a cloudy mist, the energy forming around him sparking and flashing with its intensity. A bead of sweat trickled down the mazoku's neck. He couldn't move and the scent was back full force, making his mouth water and his diminished arousal returning. What's he doing?

Once the lightning-like smog dissolved his gaze shifted downwards where a pair of long smooth legs rubbed against another. Traveling up higher he saw a taut abdomen twitch and give. The chest was smooth and milky white, the even breaths making it rise and fall lightly. His eyes lingered on the strong collarbone and saw his bite mark flare on that skin. Then finally his breath was stolen when his gaze connected with golden slanted eyes staring at him in contempt. The red hair was gone and in its place the most stunning silver tresses he ever laid eyes on. Even though he seen them plenty of times. The movement above his head caught his attention as the silver fox ears swiveled in his direction. A tail swished lazily behind the fox and Yusuke felt himself take a deep gulp.

He...he transformed...oh hell and here I thought his heat was good for the night. Yusuke took another gulp of air before taking a cautionary step. Those calculating eyes watching him carefully, assessing his intent. Just then Kurama flared his youki easily overpowering the bind on his wrists and brought them to his chest, rubbing them back to life.

"Tsk Tsk, you of all people should know never to turn your back, especially when that potential threat has an ace up their sleeves." Youko Kurama's voice broke through the silence and wrapped around Yusuke's body making him shiver. Youko rose from the bed, all 7 feet tall of him, and casually walked to where his lover stood stunned. "Now Yusuke do not be shy, Shuichi is very much aware of what is taking place. In fact he allowed me out to play, you should feel honored." Youko stroked the mazoku's cheek affectionately appreciating the way his touch made Yusuke tremble. He placed his hand underneath Yusuke's chin lifting his eyes towards his, drinking him in he placed a chaste kiss to his lips and was awarded when Yusuke gasped into his mouth. He smiled into the kiss cradling Yusuke to his body. Taking them back towards the bed he fixed Yusuke to straddle across his lap, feeling his hardness poke him in the stomach.

"Seems you did want to have some fun tonight, why deny yourself? I am yours for the taking." Youko purred into his ear, licking the shell with his devilish tongue. Yusuke tensed in his lap and groaned his head falling into the crook of his shoulders. Youko continued to molest his ear switching from licking to biting then sucking. Yusuke arched into the touch, his fingers clawing at that smooth chest and thumbing the pink nipples between his index and thumb. He felt Kurama grind into him and mewled. "That's it love I will make all the pain go away." He soothed as he placed Yusuke on his back and finally tossed the barrier keeping him from his prize to the floor. The tent in Yusuke's boxers was set free when Youko tore them away as well, the cool air tickling Yusuke's cock making him hiss and close his eyes in pleasure. He dipped his nose into the downy black curls and inhaled deeply, his eyes locking on the chocolate brown ones gazing down at him with glazed eyes. He smirked and in one swift movement, his mouth swallowed Yusuke taking him deep within and using his throat muscles to work the organ in his moist cavern.

Yusuke bolted off the bed, his back bent an inaudible scream dying on his lips as his hands reached out to grab a handful of Youko's hair. He wanted to pull him away but he didn't want him to stop. The pleasure taking him fully by surprise. His breathing came in shorts gasps as he tried to reign in his burgeoning emotions. Youko didn't relent, he kept working his tongue on the delicious appendage trapped between his lips, occasionally using his fangs to graze the flesh earning him a low moan and a twitch when his hair was pulled tightly.

"Don't...don't..." Yusuke breathed out as he felt his balls massaged and that sinful tongue making his cock swell to almost painful. His eyes began to tear, his lean legs wrapping themselves about the fox's shoulder holding him in place. "Just...don't..." He pleaded, he could feel the fire burning in his lower regions and stomach, he was going to come and he didn't want it to end yet.

Sensing his impending climax, Youko used his tongue to stroke the underside where that angry vein pulsated strangling a cry from his lover. Quickening his pace he placed a clawed finger on the piece of flesh between the balls and anus and gave it a swipe. Yusuke's eyes opened, his mouth crying out Kurama's name as his orgasm ripped from his body, sending him into white oblivion. Continuing to milk his lover of every drop, Youko reached blindly into his hair, finding the seed he hummed against the organ still in his mouth causing Yusuke to jerk and whimper from the after effects. Using his youki to make the tiny seed bloom, he touched the inside of the flower its petals secreting an oily substance. He flared his youki once more, burning the fabric of his pants from his body. Crushing some of the petals in his free hand and oiled his fingers then placed the index near his entrance. Yusuke heard his lover wince and tried to focus on the body hovering over him and saw the kitsune fingering his own entrance.

"You should be honored, love. I have only allowed one to top me and in this form. My previous mate before I became Shuichi and now Kurama." Youko said as he added his middle finger with his index, scissoring his puckered hole eagerly. With his free hand he braced on the side of Yusuke's head. He lowered his lips and Yusuke happily kissed him, deepening the kiss and bringing his arm to wrap around Kurama's neck holding him in place. The low keening noise making him smile, as he sucked on the bottom lip and plundered the sweet mouth. Youko continued to stretch himself. He could feel his body thrumming with power, passion, and downright love for the boy beneath him. Yes Shuichi you have chosen a fine mate for us, Kuronue would be happy for us. He used the last remaining petals on the plant, crushed them and stroked his lover back to hardness, breaking the kiss when he felt Yusuke joining his hand to stroke himself.

"Fuck...Kurama...nnggghh..." Yusuke moaned and took deep gasping breaths to steady his frantically beating heart. Youko's vulpine grin sending chills through his body and resting solely in one area.

Youko finding himself prepared adequately, took the dripping cock in his right hand while he balanced himself on his left, eyes staring at Yusuke's whose expression could be summed up as awed. Once the head of his cock breached the ring of muscles his eyes lost focused and he shuddered. Slowly Youko slid down the shaft until inch by inch Yusuke's cock was completely sheathed in his hot canal. Breathing through his nose, he placed both hands on Yusuke's hips firmly keeping them still until his body adjusted to the intrusion. He felt whole and he basked in the feeling, the sensations the boy was radiating. He could taste them on the tip of his tongue and he loved it. With practiced ease, Youko lifted himself off the organ until only the head remained inside his body, then will lighting fast speed slid back down, grunting from the force. Oh yessss how I missed this... He could feel Shuichi in his mind purring his delight. He now knew why his Human self enjoyed being bottom, the feel of power, control, he couldn't get enough.

Yusuke's hips thrust upwards meeting Youko's downward strokes in a slow, sensual pace. Sliding on the cock inside him, Youko threw his head back, exposing his luscious neck, his hair swaying back and forth from his movements. Yusuke's mouth watered as he sat up more, bending his knees to hold the fox in place while he attacked the fox's throat. The building heat resurfaced in Yusuke's belly, his thrusts deepened, sweat beading on his clothed chest and neck, he was so close he could feel it but he wanted his fox to come first. Youko felt a spark prickle his flesh, shivering from the contact his eyes found that Yusuke's shirt remained, tearing it off in his haste to feel that muscled chest, his eyes took in the dark markings appearing there and on his shoulders.

Curious. His mind returned when he felt Yusuke's nails digging into his hips, hastening their coupling. Aren't we impatient. He purred and quickened his pace wanting Yusuke to fill him, to claim him. Another flicker of energy and the scent of his heat mixing together, Yusuke lost himself. All other senses dulled in comparison to this moment, his mind was reeling. His body craved for more, needed more but he didn't know what it wanted.

You're an idiot through and through, son. 'What the hell'. You know what you want but you're too afraid to claim it. Some heir you are. 'Damn it can't you stay dead Raizen and stop interfering in my affairs.' Not when it comes to the heart, now stop pussying out and make that fox your mate! "Mate?" Yusuke's eyes opened and fixed on the form atop him, riding him in wanton abandon. "Mate." He breathed and closed his eyes, his body pulsating like it did when he first transformed.

Youko's body hummed in satisfaction, he was in total heaven when he felt the body under him give a jolt. What is happening. His tongue licked his lips as the power encased him in a comforting cocoon. Is he...Yes Youko Yusuke is transforming into his demon form. Yusuke's body filled out even more, his Mazoku tattoos more pronounced on his bronze physique. His short black hair spiked out, growing out in white streaks like tendrils from a plant. Youko ceased his movements and stared in fascination. When Yusuke's eyes finally opened they were a deep russet color. Sexy, very sexy indeed.

Youko's yelp of surprise stunned him for a second when he was lying on his back, the now Mazoku Yusuke hovering over him, never once did he dislodge himself from that tight hole. "Mate." Yusuke growled low in this throat, his eyes taking in his lover. He fixated on where he had bit the kitsune earlier, that pulse was throbbing, beckoning him to it. "Mate." He pulled out and pumped his hips furiously, his arms holding his body as he took his fox relentlessly.

Youko's howls of pleasure rang through their bedroom, his legs finding purchase around the Mazoku's waist as he met him thrust for thrust, his own release cresting on the edge of total oblivion. His nails raked Yusuke's back, bringing him closer to his own body, breathing in his musky scent and adding it to his memories. He smiled. He deemed Yusuke as a good mate if he could make love to them like this.

"Fuck......yessss Yusuke.....faster...." Youko chanted his body on the verge of climaxing. He just needed a push, a nudge and he would see stars. Yusuke groaned in his furry ear and continued the assault on his backside. He felt his instincts coming to the forefront, he needed to claim this beast above him, he just had to wait for the right moment...

"Mate!" Yusuke cried out, his mind chanting the word over and over. He too was nearing his end but he had to stave off his climax...had to wait...to feel...Now! His fangs elongated and he bit down on his earlier bite mark, drawing the blood into his body like a deprived thirst man. Youko's body shuddered under him and he felt the hot spurts of his seed beating against his belly and chest. He continued to thrust, his hips not knowing when to stop. Youko's mouth sought out his neck, the blue vein staring at him angrily. His fangs appeared and he broke the skin, the blood seeping into his mouth like water. Yusuke's muffled moan and he released inside his body. His inner walls clenched around his penis, drawing it further into his hole. Yusuke whimpered as his orgasm took him over, his eyes going slack, his mouth loosening its grip on the kitsune's throat. Youko's body went limp, his limbs sluggish and worn but the grin on his face said he was more than pleased.

"Now I am yours. From now until death rips us apart, which will not be easy, seeing as how protective you are of me." He whispered as he stroked his long slender fingers through white thick hair. Yusuke was out, his breathing slow and steady, the beginning of sleep. "I guess you can remain here, mate." He closed his eyes as he cradled Yusuke's body against his own. There were blips of residual energy circling the lovers but Youko paid it no mind. Little did he know, they were mixing with his own youki, aiding it for his own transformation.
