A.N: I wish to give a big thanks to Tavia454 (over on ff.net, Idk what her account name here is) for helping me get through this lemon (she wrote most of it). *glomps Tavi* I luff you! Summary will change. Updates will be irregular. Enjoy. ^^

The setting sun cast the dirt road into stripped shadows, carving deep troughs into the traveler’s path. Birds chatted amiably in the dusk, calling to their mates and singing lullabies to their offspring. Deer tiptoed through the underbrush on their way back from grazing, and coyotes crying out to their kin. Weary travelers plodded along the wide path, atop their horses or walking.

One of these travelers was lacking in the means to keep a horse, so he was making the journey to Keltin on foot. He waved politely to the travelers that passed him, quickening his steps as the shadows grew bolder. He had never really understood why Grandpa always waited until the last minute for the deliveries, and it always fell onto his shoulders to pick up the lost time.

Yuugi Mouto, age sixteen, bustled around a particularly large carriage that took up most of the road. His legs brushed against the leafy branches that reached out onto the path, but his smaller than average size made the passage easy. He paused a moment to glare at the carriage owner who had the gall to yell at him for getting in the way. The carriage guard, however, waved sheepishly at him, softening Yuugi’s glare into a pout. At least not everyone was so rude.

‘Jeeze, Grandpa. Why did you have to forget about this?’ Yuugi shifted the package on his back, trying to relieve the pressure on his shoulders. It always happened like this. Solomon Mouto, Yuugi’s grandfather, was the owner of a small carpentry shop that delivered its own orders. Now, since the employees of the shop consisted of Solomon, Yuugi, and the part-time apprentice, Yuugi and his grandpa mostly made the out-of-town deliveries. However, Grandpa was loaded with some sophisticated orders this week, and was not able to accompany Yuugi to the next town over, Keltin.

‘It’s rather funny that Grandpa can remember the weirdest of things, like what the King was wearing at the parade ten years ago, yet he couldn’t remember an upcoming delivery.’ Yuugi thought as he hurried along his way. ‘And it figures that it would be my responsibility to make sure that it gets to Keltin as soon as possible.’ He glanced longingly at the few last rays of sunlight as they dipped further into the tree line. ‘It also figures that he wouldn’t remember until it was almost dark too.’

Robert Hawkins, the only house next to the library in Keltin, which was Yuugi’s destination. Mr. Hawkins was an old friend of Grandpa’s, who was often just described as an ‘old traveling partner.’ Yuugi suspected it had something to do with his grandpa’s ‘mysterious youth’ which he never told anyone about. They hadn’t always lived in the town of Wenta, where they were currently living, but Solomon Mouto had this reputation as a great carpenter and Wenta was in need of one. That had been when Yuugi was four. So, of course, no one really knew anything of Grandpa except for this carpentry skill and honesty.

‘It’s too bad Wenta isn’t that large of a city, maybe then we could afford to hire a delivery horse and this trip could be so much faster.’ The package was most likely something for Mr. Hawkins’s granddaughter, an aristocratic young blond named Rebecca. Yuugi had met the girl on several occasions, either while making deliveries in Keltin or when Grandpa decided he wanted to visit his old friend. Rebecca…wasn’t bad, as far as girls go. She was still rather vain about her looks, and had a smart tongue to anyone who didn’t know how to jump rope with her conversations, but the more he was around her the less he saw the aristocratic front and the more he saw the strong-willed woman who wanted to make a name for herself. He wished tons of luck to whoever married her. Oh, he knew of Grandpa’s secret plans to try and get Yuugi to think of her as a prospective wife, but Yuugi could still only think of her as the little girl who wrestled with him over something he said about that stuffed bear toy she always carried around.

Yuugi shook his head in subtle amusement. He honestly couldn’t believe that Grandpa was still trying to get him to marry. The old man should know by now that he felt no need to make that sort of commitment, and outside of Rebecca he didn’t really know that many women. Yuugi’s future plans involved learning all he could about the carpentry world, and eventually taking over Grandpa’s business when he retired. That in itself would take a long time; Grandpa had the resilience of a cockroach, you just couldn’t kill him.

Shivering, Yuugi rubbed his hands along his biceps. The normally warm air was cooling rapidly with the descent of nightfall, and while he and Grandpa could continue on long after dark, by himself Yuugi didn’t want to take a chance. There was a way station about a mile up ahead, if he had read the markers right, and Grandpa had connections with the messengers that commonly used it, and they had no problem with Yuugi housing inside it’s walls for one night. If he hurried, he could make it there before all the light disappeared from the sky and he could wait until dawn to continued his delivery.

‘I hope I make it before dark.’ Yuugi thought to himself, glancing warily into the darkening trees. Normally, he was a rather brave soul, yet by himself in the dark, that was a different story entirely. Anything could happen and no one would know until dawn’s light revealed the shadow’s secrets. He could be robbed, kidnapped, or even murdered and no one would be the wiser.

Not to mention the wild creatures that lurking in the forest at night. Known and unknown, there were unlimited creatures that could take advantage of a solitary human. He had heard a story of night-creatures that could take on a human form and would spirit away any lone person to god knows where. Rumors spread on what happened to these poor souls. Some returned only with scattered memories of their missing time, others wound up mysteriously pregnant, and there were some that didn’t come back at all.

Yuugi shivered at that last thought and scurried along his way. That was only a myth! He was positive that it was only an excuse for the women who got stuck with the aftermath of an affair. ‘I can’t remember’ was the oldest excuse in the book, and yet for some reason, it still worked.

‘What was that?’ Yuugi thought frantically as something rustled in the bushes. His heart pounded in his chest like a frightened rabbit, hammering to be free from its cage. He flinched away from the quivering bush, his hand automatically reaching for the dagger hanging from his belt. He may not be strong, but he was quick enough to defend himself if it came to a fight.

He waited tensely for whatever was in the bushes to show itself. The rustles paused momentarily before a…rabbit popped out of the leaves. Shrieking, Yuugi jumped backwards, completely startling the wayward rabbit and it went scrambling back into the bushes. Yuugi stared blankly at the now still bushes, his muscles twitching at the sudden release of adrenaline into his system. A rabbit?! He was sixteen years old and jumping at Rabbits?!

His pride rallying, Yuugi stomped off onto the path. He had better nerves than that! He knew this path blindfolded, traveling it in both night and day, yet he was jumping at rabbits?! How juvenile was he?!

Still…he kept his dagger close by, just in case.

A few minutes later and Yuugi was still feeling jumpy. The path was getting quieter with every inch the sunlight receded, and it was messing with his head. He knew that the forest wasn’t supposed to be this quiet, and it normally heralded an attack of some kind. But what would be out already? You could hear a wolf, they always announced their presence with a howl, and the bigger cats didn’t come this far off of the mountains.

There! A flash of movement in the trees caught his eye. It was too agile to be a wolf, and it was maybe the size of a big cat, but there weren’t native wild cats here! Unless…did someone’s exotic pet go feral? He really hoped not.

Nerves tight, he shifted the pack into a position where it could easily be removed. His dagger was a heavy weight in his palm, and his hands began to sweat. This wasn’t any rabbit.

Nothing moved for a while, and Yuugi cautiously took a step onward. If he could just make it to the way station, he’d be safe. He kept scanning the trees for movement: his heart pounding furiously when he couldn’t find anything. The light was almost completely gone now.

Just keep going, Yuugi. You’ve got to reach that way station. He commanded himself, glancing suspiciously around for anything out of the ordinary.

Snap!

Instantly, Yuugi froze. Up ahead, further along the path there was a tall shadow moving towards him. It was human in shape, but that did little to soothe his nerves. It could be a robber, or even a murderer!

Standing on the balls of his feet, Yuugi waited tensely for the other person to get close enough to distinguish facial features. He shuffled through the few pictures of people on wanted posters that he had memorized, praying that the images wouldn’t match. Maybe it was just another traveler?

Yuugi’s heart thudded as the dim light revealed the other person. It was a man, maybe a few inches taller than himself, with wild black and red hair. He was wearing distinctly foreign clothes: flowing and robe-like in design, but the ends of the sleeves and pants were bound to their respective limbs with a golden ring, deep, rich colors of green and blue highlighted with red created strange patterns, and he was shoe-less. Strings of bead and feathers decorated the man’s hair, and a strange circle rested on his forehead.

His eyes. Yuugi thought suddenly. His eyes are red! They reflected the light like two pools of water, deep and unknown.

He clutched his dagger tight as the man continued to get closer. Yuugi didn’t recognize the style of dress as any local tribe, and the person didn’t act like just another traveler using the path. Yuugi stopped walking and let the shoulder bag slip a little further off of his shoulder. He didn’t want to leave it behind, but his grandpa would understand if he had to. Rebecca might through a fit, but that wasn’t anything new.

The stranger stopped just a few feet from him, standing straight and imposing right in the middle of the path. There was no way around him without coming directly within reaching distance and Yuugi knew that he couldn’t run all the way back to town. He would either have to talk his way past, or fight.

He really hoped the other spoke his language.

“U-um, hello?” Yuugi started quietly as the standoff continued. His heartbeat drowned out any other noise, and Yuugi tried not to look directly in the stranger’s eyes. His grandpa had told him that in most of the tribes, direct eye contact was seen as a challenge. Instead Yuugi tried to keep his attention with near the stranger’s face or on his clothes. “M-may I pass?” Yuugi berated himself for stuttering, it could be seen as a weakness, and appearing weak in front of a stranger could be hazardous.

The stranger was silent, and completely still. Yuugi shifted uncomfortably as those weird eyes wandered over his body. He wasn’t getting a good feeling about this.

After an eternity, the stranger brought his eyes up to look once again at Yuugi’s face, and he had a hard time not looking in those calculating eyes. A strange feeling settled in the pit of his stomach, not a good or bad feeling, but it didn’t help his nerves much. Then, finally, there was some movement from the stranger: he titled his head and a confident smirk stretched his lips.

It was the only warning he was given.

In the span of a second, the stranger was instantly a few inches from Yuugi, towering over his smaller form. Yuugi gasped, stumbling back as he tried to turn and run from the sudden movement. His package, however, offset his balance and nearly sent him tumbling to the ground, if it wasn’t for the stranger. Unfamiliar hands reached out and grabbed him, holding him in a rather awkward position where Yuugi’s feet were scrambling to get underneath him. Instinctively, he jerked his face upwards in the direction of the other’s face.

He was caught instantly. Those reflective eyes pulled him in, trapping any kind of thought process he tried to put together. His voice stumbled, halfway through, starting to yell at the stranger to get away. The only complete thought he could conjure up was: “Huh?”

Yuugi didn’t notice when the other had leaned down closer to his face, but he instantly noticed when the stranger’s mouth rested right above his. Mentally and physically, he froze, unable to even voice a protest when the stranger closed the gap and kissed him.

Something akin to lightening poured into his system at the contact, frying his thoughts and tearing away his motor control. His legs suddenly gave out, yet the stranger paid no heed and simply wrapped his arms around him tighter. Yuugi’s eyes went wide, staring in shock into the stranger’s red eyes, lost in the feelings that filled him. Now, Yuugi may not have kissed anyone with serious intent before, but he knew that regular kissing did not provoke such energy.

The stranger suddenly broke the kiss, snapping his head up to glare in front of him somewhere out of Yuugi’s line of sight. Yuugi, dazed, could only blink as the stranger slowly set him down on the ground. As the other stepped away from him, Yuugi tried desperately to get some kind of thought process going. A guy had just kissed him…and he liked it? No! He was just in shock, right?

Dizzy and confused, Yuugi tried to see where the stranger had gone, hoping in some part of his mind that the other had left, but he was mistaken. The stranger stood, not too far from Yuugi, glaring at another person on the road. It took a minute, but Yuugi finally focused enough to notice that this new person was dressed similarly to the guy who had kissed him. The air, which had just a few moments ago been hot, was now cold and tense.

Shaking himself, Yuugi forced him mind to cooperate. Precious moments had passed as his mind blanked. He didn’t know what was wrong with him, but he had a pretty good idea that the reason what that stranger. The new stranger had gotten closer than Yuugi last remembered, and the stranger that kissed him was standing tall and threatening in between the other and Yuugi. Words were being spoken, but not in any language Yuugi recognized.

I’ve got to escape! He commanded his legs to move, frustrated when they remained a sluggishly pile of goop. Why weren’t they working?! He shouldn’t have been the effected by a kiss!

He must have spaced out again, because the next time he looked up the two strangers were all hunched over and looked like they were about to charge something. Eyes widening, Yuugi watched as something that sounded like a challenge was shouted and the two attacked each other. They jumped high in the air, much higher than any human could, and a bad feeling settled in his belly. Just what had he gotten into?!

Escape! He reminded himself, just barely managing to get his legs underneath him. The red-eyes man must have slipped some kind of drug into his mouth earlier, or else his legs wouldn’t be so out of control. He kept his ears trained on the sound of fighting as he half crawled, half staggered past his package. If he could just make it to the way station!

He made it about five feet before the sounds of fighting ceased, and he frantically tried to make his legs run. The sound of soft footfalls approached him, and he stumbled in his panic. The arms from before quickly wrapped around him, preventing his fall and effectively preventing his escape.

“No!” he shouted, struggling as best he could in the other’s grip. “Let me go!”

The other whispered to him gently in a language he couldn’t understand. He pushed against the other’s hold, kicking and swinging his arms while yelling “let me go!” and “stop!” The stranger simply held him tighter.

“S-stop!” Yuugi whimpered as he was turned around to face the other. He didn’t want to look in those eyes again, he couldn’t think through those eyes! “Please…”

A slim hand gently grasped his chin and titled his face up. Yuugi shut his eyes tight; he didn’t want to! Didn’t want to! The silky soft touch of those lips against his caused him to gasp, and once again foreign feelings flooded his senses.

Once again, after several minutes the stranger broke the kiss. Yuugi couldn’t think, much less move when the stranger ran a blood-covered finger over his cheek. His mind was all fuzzy and his body was numb. He couldn’t feel it as the stranger picked him up, nor when the bushes brushed against his legs as he was carried into the forest.

~(*)~

Where am I? Yuugi thought for the millionth time. His vision was blurry, and his limbs were unresponsive too. He had just barely noticed how the smeared image of the woods had changed into some weird kind of naturalist’s house. Strange orbs of light hung along the walls in an ethereal fashion, adding depth to the earthy tones of the house.

The red-eyed man had not set him down, that much he was sure of. He was cradled up to the man’s chest like a babe, and he continuously heard foreign words being whispered to him in a tender voice. Yuugi wasn’t sure if the words were actually another language, or if his own mind was too addled to make sense of his own speech.

Time jumped again, and Yuugi found himself in a closed off room. He could almost focus enough to distinguish between the walls and the cloth tapestries that decorated them, but he couldn’t really think about much more.

A squeak managed to jump out of this throat as he suddenly found himself set on a bed. The mattress was really soft and the covers were smooth cotton. His attention, however, was brought back away from his surrounds and directed to the person who brought him here.

Red eyes watched him quietly as their owner ran a gentle hand over Yuugi’s face. Yuugi gasped, a strange electric tingle following the path of the hand. The man leaned close, eyes lidded pleasantly as his other hand trailed down his neck to his collarbone. Cooing, the man rubbed his nose against Yuugi’s affectionately, and Yuugi sighed in response.

Yuugi arched his back when the wandering hand finally reached up under his shirt. Heat blossomed at the contact, eliciting a hiss from Yuugi’s lips. The man teasingly pulled on his shirt, dragging it up his body to expose Yuugi’s pale stomach. A moan slipped from his throat as the man ran his fingers across his belly. If Yuugi had been fully aware, he may have questioned why so much attention was paid to his stomach, but he was too far gone in the haze to care much. He giggled when a ticklish spot was touched.

After what only felt like a few minutes, the man pulled back, humming in satisfaction. Yuugi titled his head when the pleasant feelings stopped. Was something wrong?

Yuugi hissed when the man suddenly leaned against him, the feeling of bare flesh meeting with his bared chest startling him back into a semi-conscious state. The man cooed at him, gently raising Yuugi’s shirt over his head and discarding it somewhere on the floor; the rush of cool air making goose-bumps prickle along his skin and his nipples pucker. Yuugi tilted his head back as the man laid gentle kisses along his neck, thoroughly enjoying the warm haze that surrounded him once again with the touch of those pliant lips.

“I choose you.”

Yuugi had no time to ponder over what the foreign words meant, because a mere second later, he was kissed again. Molten heat poured into his throat, much like before, except this time it held higher implications. Yuugi moaned into the kiss, unable to help himself, raising his arms up to wrap around the other’s shoulders. Confident hands reached up to cup his face, tilting his chin up to kiss at a better angle.

He gasped in surprise when a hand brushed over his chest, deliberately missing his nipple. They broke apart for air, yet an instant later their lips connected again. Yuugi whined longingly, tried to move his body underneath that hand. He was rewarded with the contact he desired.

Breathing a little bit heavier, Yuugi opened hazy eyes and watched as the red-eyed man kissed a line down his neck. Yuugi gasped as the man’s hips rolled up against his, causing a delicious friction, the likes he had never before experienced. Confident hands trailed up and down Yuugi’s sides, brushing past delicate spots in their paths. Yuugi had the decency to blush when the hands dipped dangerously close to his hips, causing his body to react in a way that was completely foreign to him. He tightened his arms around the other’s neck, leaned up and placed a kiss on the man’s cheek, suddenly becoming a willing victim to his own seduction.

Things got real hot, real fast after that.

The red-eyed man almost aggressively licked and suckled down Yuugi’s chest, teasingly skirting around a puckered nipple. Yuugi writhed under the sensations, completely unsure what he was supposed to be doing, but knowing all the same that he needed something. The man cooed against his skin, making Yuugi gasp at the vibrations that tingled along his nerves. This was...oh gods...

“A-ah!” Heat suddenly surrounded one of his nipples, a plush tongue reaching out to taste the chosen part of his body. Yuugi arched into the sudden heat, shaking his head back and forth in a futile attempt to make sense of the feelings coursing though him. After an eternity, the mouth lifted up and trailed kisses over to the other neglected nipple and soon began to work on that one. The other hummed over this one, causing Yuugi to cry out in pleasure. Hands continued to rove over his skin, leaving no place untouched.

So hot! Yuugi closed his eyes, his breath coming in short gasps, as his hands fisted in the stranger's hair. No longer was it a matter of who this man was, or what was he going to do to him – that thought process had fled his mind the moment those heavenly lips descended on his body, and now he couldn't get enough of the heat that they spread over his chilled skin. A muffled chuckle caused a spread of goose bumps to appear where it ghosted across his midsection and Yuugi responded to it with a moan of approval.

“Please...” He whispered faintly, urging this mysterious stranger on. His hands took on a life of their own, pulling the other back up to his lips again, the need to taste this stranger's exquisite heat nearly overwhelming him.

The man acquiesced with surprising ease, giving in to his demands, though not without a price for the agreement as Yuugi felt the rest of his clothing give way – suffering the same fate as his shirt had earlier. The intensity of skin on skin contact sent a jolt of electricity shooting through his overly sensitive nerve endings and Yuugi's breath caught on a sob. His distress noted, and soothed away with a few gentle words whispered into his ear.

All of a sudden the stranger shifted away from him and Yuugi frantically scrambled for a way to hold on to the much needed heat. But he relaxed once again, when the other returned to him, this time situating himself between his legs. Had coherent thought been present Yuugi would have had cause to be concerned, but he was too far into the cocoon of pleasant warmth that the stranger had wrapped around him, and he merely gave an approving coo. Those talented hands returned to their task, forcing any lingering misgivings from his mind as they teased along the tops of his thighs, skating into unknown territory.

And then a cry was torn from Yuugi's throat as one of them wrapped around his hardened member, stroking him ever so gently. His fists tightened in the stranger's hair, drawing him back into a smoldering kiss, as his body unconsciously bucked up into the tightness of that teasing hand. Oh gods...was he in...did he die...? This was...thoughts flew through Yuugi's mind before he could grasp them, the pleasure overloading what was left of his consciousness.

Relax, little one...his eyes flew open wide as the foreign thought invaded his mind. What...? But, no sooner than it flitted across his mind it was gone, lost to a haze of pleasure and Yuugi tossed his head side to side to relieve the building pressure. Oh gods...he was gonna...please...

As if hearing his thoughts the warmth left his aching member, and Yuugi could only whimper his displeasure. He missed the tight heat of the other's hand, the attention that had been given to his unaccustomed body. He had no time to think on it though, as one thought rang clear through his mind. Be still little one, and I shall give you what you need...

And then he started as a slick finger circled his virgin entrance. The hair on the back of his neck stood at attention and his eyes shot up to lock with amused, lust-filled scarlet. What had he gotten himself...? A tiny squeak was forced from his lips as that slender digit breached his entrance, probing his insides. He squirmed uncomfortably in the other's grasp, not liking the feeling at all. The grip on his waist tightened, the stranger now whispering foreign words into his ears, their sounds soothing away his fears. He closed his eyes to the flood of unusual feelings, unsure of how to react.

“Ah-haa!” Yuugi nearly choked as light flashed beneath his eyelids. What was that?! His reaction was noted by the man above him, who gave a hearty chuckle. He opened his mouth to question the stranger, but before he could get a word out the man managed to strike that spot two more times, leaving him gasping for breath and writhing on the sheets. There was a moment where he felt more pressure from below and the intensity of the light, of the pleasure doubled as the stranger began thrusting his fingers inside of him. The heat coiled around him from the inside and Yuugi was caught in its grip, unable to utter more than the very basic of words.

This seemed to please the stranger, and he responded by hitting that most pleasurable spot a couple more times before withdrawing completely, leaving Yuugi feeling empty and vulnerable. The teen twitched once, falling limp in the other's arms.

Look at me, little one...the command flitted across his conscience and Yuugi found himself unable to deny the gentle command. His eyes drifted towards the other's just as a blunt pressure came in contact with his sensitive entrance. His eyes widened, his hands coming up to grip at the other's shoulders – to push him away or pull him nearer even Yuugi himself didn't know. A cry of pain bubbled over his lips as that hardness slipped slowly up inside of him, filling him, stretching him even as the one above him whispered what sounded to be apologies had he actually been able to listen.

Yuugi squeezed his eyes shut. It felt like he was being torn apart from the inside out. He panted against the pain, and once again that foreign voice flitted across his mind, all movement ceasing. Relax little one...the pain shall ease...His eyes snapped open to see the other staring down at him in concern. His nails raked across tan skin without his conscious thought and the stranger winced briefly before resuming his actions of earlier, only this time with more care than he had shown before.

After a tense moment where Yuugi honestly thought that he would not be able to take anymore, the pain eased and he closed his eyes once again in relief, a sob echoing around the room. A gentle hand touched his face, forcing Yuugi's attention back towards the scarlet-eyed stranger as a slick pulling feeling invaded his senses. And Yuugi arched against it, unsure.

The stranger shifted once again, this time filling Yuugi completely, causing him to cry out. Electric fingers trailed up his sides and to his chest, offering a distraction as the pain rose and fell. The now familiar mouth descended once again to his chest, delightfully following the trail his hands had marked.

Hissing, whether in pain or pleasure he wasn’t quite sure, Yuugi arched further against the other. Pain sparked before his eyes as the thing inside of him dug a little deeper. Gentle finger drew circles along his chest, willing him to relax and be still. Completely uncertain, Yuugi slowly loosened his grip on the other’s shoulder and let his hands make their way up to the stranger’s face.

Yuugi stubbornly redirected the stranger’s face to his own. He placed a kiss on the other’s lips, gentle and chaste, to let his desire be known. Red eyes lit up deviously as they descended upon him. He let his fear and uncertainty show through the kiss, waiting timidly to know if everything was going to be all right.

The other hummed against his lips, pushing against him as his hips shifted. The sting of pain was immediately drowned in the feeling of the kiss. Yuugi hummed back, opening his mouth to give the other much wanted access. He barely noticed when the other pulled his hips back.

He did notice, however, when the other pushed his hips forward again.

Gasping into the kiss, Yuugi’s grip tightened on the other’s shoulders. A moan erupted from his throat as the movement continued. A rhythm soon formed as the other’s hips dug deeper then retreated, dual moans accenting the actions.

“A-ah!” Yuugi cried out as a familiar bundle of nerves was struck inside of him. Writhing, he arched up harshly against the other, loosing his mind as the searing heat consumed him. A throaty moan echoed above him, and the hips descended a little bit further. Heat flooded his entire body, almost to the point that it was painful.


Oh gods! Yuugi flailed wildly underneath the other, screaming out his pleasure as the other hit that one spot deep inside of him. The stranger moaned along with him, a baritone that harmonized automatically with his tenor. Oh god-oh god-oh god! Yuugi’s head thrashed from side to side.


Tan hands descended purposefully to his weeping member, starting at the base and giving it strong, firm strokes in time with the thrusts. Yuugi screamed, thrusting forward into the hand and ultimately causing the thing inside of him to dig deeper again. He clamed on tight to the other’s shoulders, little half-moon’s leaking a purplish fluid.


“Ga-ah!” He was so close! So very, very close! Yuugi thrust back against the other with as much force he could muster, driving closer to the pleasurable goal. Just one more! The stranger nearly screamed as he found completion, driving the deepest into Yuugi he could go. A burning fluid exploding inside of him, spreading into his insides and soaking into the caverns like a flood let loose in a desert. This, coupled with one last stroke against his member, let him release like a wound up spring. Milky white fluid shot forth, completely covering his lower body and part of the stranger’s.


Yuugi’s body twitched for a few moments later, a contented smile on his lips as he rode out the last of his release. He didn’t notice how the stranger sighed along with him, and similar smile on his tanned face. His limbs felt like a pile of goo, a pile of electrified goo. He had never felt so good in his life!


Gentle hands stroked his face, thumb pads brushing lovingly over his eyelids. Lips descended onto his forehead, placing a lingering kiss to the expanse of skin there. He cooed at the stranger, leaning into the soft touches as the aftermath of his completion continued to wash over him. Soft, maroon eyes stared lovingly at him while his hands drew foreign symbols on his skin. Little lines, hued a delicate purple, followed the paths those fingers indicated.


Yuugi’s eyes closed sleepily, letting himself fall into the comforting feelings of the other’s touch. He leaned his head into the other’s palm, sighing. In no time at all, he was asleep, feeling completely safe in the red-eyed stranger’s embrace.


“I claim you as my Aibou.”
