Ei has been locked in her office working furiously away at paperwork as the result of the end of the Vision Hunt Decree. Miko longs to spend more time with her, and decides enough is enough - the only way to get through to her is to do what she does best: Tease.

The Raiden Shogun sat at her desk working her way through a seemingly endless stack of paperwork. One pile was dedicated to rescinding the Vision Hunt Decree - detailed apologies while returning visions to their rightful owners, her signature splattered across the parchment in dark purple ink. The other heap was the result of said Decree. For those who weren’t as lucky to have survived bouts of insanity caused by having their source of power so suddenly snatched away, even the sincerest expression of regret would never be enough to atone.
Yae Miko loomed in the doorway, her eyes narrowed in deep concentration. She hasn’t come out of that office in days. She knew her beloved had been inundated with responsibilities the second she had resumed her role as Shogun. This shouldn’t have come as a surprise, and it didn’t - not really, anyway. The Kitsune had grown accustomed to waiting. After 500 years, even a week or two was nothing.
But it didn’t make things any easier. Since Ei’s return, they had made up for lost time any chance they got. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Miko had always shrugged off that trite mortal phrase before she knew what loving and losing did to a person. Now, every time they were with each other - the bedroom, the shrine, even the darkest corners of the hallways of Tenshukaku - she treated it as if it were the last time she’d ever hold her in her arms again.
A quiet sigh escaped her as she closed and locked the door and approached the desk.
“Ei, dear. How many times must I tell you? Losing yourself over the past will not make the current situation any better.”
The woman hummed in the affirmative, still lost in thought. The kitsune rolled her eyes in exasperation. Oh, for Archons’ sake! What must I say for her to at least glance my way? After a beat, her lips curled upward into a sinister grin, her canines glistening in the dim candlelight of the room. Sauntering over to Ei’s side, she threw her leg over her and situated herself on her lap.
“Miko! What…when did you get here?”
“Dear me. Are you really that dense, Ei?” She pouted as she nuzzled her neck. “I’ve been here watching you for quite some time now.”
“Oh…well, I apologize. I’ve just been so busy,” Ei responded as she absentmindedly ran her fingers through the soft fur of the kitsune’s tail.
Miko whined at her touch. She had to remain strong if this was going to go her way. “Too busy for me?”
“Dearest, can we please not do this? I really need to make it through what’s here,” she pleaded before kissing her forehead and resuming her scribbling.
A little peck like that wasn’t going to satiate the Guuji. She’d be damned if she’d give in this easy. “Ei, you’ve been in here for days. Please…I miss you…” Miko murmured against the soft skin of her lover’s neck, her lips giving way to fangs as she bit down gently.
“Fuck,” Ei groaned. “I’m begging you, Miko…not now.”
This was going to be harder than she thought. “Fine then. Just keep writing. I’ll entertain myself,” Miko mischievously responded.
The Shogun moved to put the nib of her quill to parchment, then froze. She could feel the kitsune slowly sliding up and down her thigh, her moans rumbling against her throat at each thrust of her hips.
“Ohhhhhhhh, Ei. Just feeling your body against mine gets me so wet,” she groaned into her ear. Snapping her writing utensil in half, she could take no more.
“Really letting those animal instincts kick in, are we? Rutting against my leg like the eager little fox you are,” she said as she sat back in the chair and watched her wriggle desperately.
“Please…it’s been days,” Miko whimpered.
Finally pulling her in, the Shogun kissed her hard. Deftly untying the sash of her kimono, it fell to the ground in a quiet whisper of expensive silk.
“My, and nothing underneath! I knew you were scheming,” Ei murmured into her ear before gently nibbling her lobe.
“Ah! How else…was I supposed to…capture your attention?” She gasped in response as she tore at Ei’s kimono, longing to feel her flesh against her own.
“So eager,” Ei mocked with a dark chuckle before the Guuji’s mouth collided with hers. Grabbing her hands, Miko placed them on her breasts. Getting the hint, the Shogun rubbed her thumbs across her nipples and was rewarded with a loud moan.
Her lap already sopping wet from the kitsune’s arousal, she scooped her up and flipped her onto the desk on her stomach. Ei slammed her hips into Miko’s as she stroked and pulled her tail in rhythm. Miko gripped the edge of the desk as she felt the Shogun nudge her legs apart wider and plunged two fingers into her from behind.
“Archons! Ei! Fuckkkkk…” she hissed.
Kissing up her lower back to her shoulder, Ei commanded, “Come for me, minx,” as she bit down.
Miko shuddered around her digits, the strength of her orgasm causing her eyes to water as she screeched out in pleasure. The other woman released her firm grip on her tail, allowing it to swish to and fro as her heart rate stabilized.
“Now that’s more like it,” the kitsune taunted as she turned around and sat on the desk. “About time you did something other than stare at documents all damn day.”
Sinking back into her chair, Ei shot her a look of disdain. “Miko, you know I’d spend every waking moment with you in bed if I could. I’ve just…got a lot on my mind right now. Could you please cut me a little slack? I gave you what you wanted. Can I get back to work?”
The Guuji rolled her eyes. “Love, just because I got what I wanted doesn’t mean you got what you needed. That being said…I don’t appreciate your attitude.” Her glance shifted toward Ei’s lower half, her inner thighs glistening with the evidence of her own arousal. “I suppose you’d like me to take care of that for you?”
Given her status, Ei wasn’t used to nor did she enjoy begging for what she desired. Her pride was precious to her, and Miko was well aware of this weakness. The Shogun’s cheeks turned a light shade of pink as she thought her next words over carefully.
“I’m sure you’ve got your own duties to attend to, so there’s no need.”
“Oh, come now, Ei. We both know how this little game of yours concludes. Why can’t you just admit you’ve missed this? Missed me? Since you seem to think you can take care of yourself…maybe I can work with that.”
The Shogun cocked an eyebrow curiously. “…I’m listening.”
Miko’s lips stretched into a grin. “It’s simple. All you have to do is watch me and do what I’m doing to yourself. Surely you’re capable of that?”
All thoughts of the work that still needed to be done instantly exited Ei’s mind. “I’d say so,” she managed to croak out. Her throat had grown dry at the mere thought of watching Miko touch herself in front of her.
“Good. Let’s get started then.” The kitsune’s long, nimble fingers moved to palm a handful of her breasts. She massaged herself slowly, letting the sensation fuel her confidence. “Well, don’t just sit there gawking. Get moving. You’re not embarrassed, are you?”
Never one to back down from a challenge, Ei shifted to mirror what Miko was doing. “Embarrassed? Not in the slightest. What’s embarrassing is how much you’re enjoying this,” she said as she nodded to where the Guuji’s slick had dripped onto the desktop.
“Archons you’re cocky,” Miko shot back as her fingertips met her nipples and squeezed gently. “But that’s ok. You’ll break sooner…mmm, fuck…or later.” Ei bit the inside of her cheek to stifle the moan that threatened to come forth as she imitated her actions.
“I’m not that easy to break,” she retorted.
“We’ll see about that,” Miko replied, one of her hands slipping down her belly. The Shogun’s eyes followed in rapt attention as the other woman’s fingers slid through her wet folds. “Ahhh…I’m still quite sensitive from that thorough fucking you gave me earlier. Are you sure you don’t want me to…?”
“That won’t be necessary,” Ei ground out.
Miko shrugged. “Suit yourself. I can’t imagine those work-worn, ink-stained fingers of yours could feel any better than ones that know exactly what you like,” she teased as she slipped a finger inside of herself. The Shogun mimicked her, a sharp intake of breath her only response.
She’s got to be close to giving in. What can I do to…oh! Her eyes lit up as she determined her final move. Sliding her finger out, she lifted it to her lips and sucked seductively.
“Hmmm…sweet, but I do miss the way you taste, Ei.”
And with that, she lost control. “Then why don’t you come over and take it, Miko?”
The kitsune nearly launched herself off the desk as she fell to her knees in front of her. Her tongue lapped at her cunt furiously, not wanting a drop to go to waste. Ei’s fist twisted in pink strands of hair, forcing her deeper between her thighs.
“Fuck…Miko…harder…”
Taking her bud between her lips, she sucked with just enough pressure to send her spinning into the abyss.
“MIKO!” Her name sounded like thunder ripping across the room as she looked up at a very disheveled Shogun.
“You don’t know…the meaning of…fighting fair, do you?” She muttered as she tried to catch her breath.
“Well, you know what they say: All’s fair in love and war. I may not know my way around a battlefield like you do, but I certainly have a few tricks up my sleeve when it comes to exploiting weaknesses.”
“You’re too clever for your own good,” Ei huffed as she pulled the woman onto her lap.
“Ei, dear,” she chastised as she caressed her face. “I’m a kitsune. It’s in my nature to outwit.”
The Shogun chuckled and kissed her deeply. “If this was any indication of what I can expect in the future, perhaps I should get on your bad side more often.”

Chapter 2: Grand Finale
The lanterns that adorned the walkway of Amakane Island produced just enough light for the Shogun and Guuji to see where they were going. Thankfully, it was also too dim for the few other citizens there to see what was about to occur.
“Miko, this way,” Ei whispered as she grabbed her hand and led her toward one of the large Sakura trees off the main path. She sat down on the cool grass at the base of the tree and pulled the kitsune down to sit between her legs. Hugging her from behind, she took in the sensation of just being with her: The warmth of her body, the light floral scent of her hair, and the sound of her sighing in contentment made the stress of the day melt away.
“What happened to all that vigor you had earlier, hmm? Aren’t you going to punish me for teasing you all night? Or was that comment about a collar tightening around my neck nothing but talk?”
Suddenly, she felt Ei bring a hand to her throat. “Oh, I’m sorry. I seem to have forgotten to bring yours along. I suppose my fingers will have to do.” The Shogun felt her swallow hard against her palm as the other traveled up the kitsune’s skirt.
She tightened her grip slowly - not enough to hurt, but enough for Miko to understand she was in control for now. Well, it is her birthday, too. I suppose I’ll let her have her fun first, the Guuji thought. Leaning back into her, the kitsune rested her head on Ei’s shoulder in a sign of surrender.
“Good girl,” the Shogun murmured softly before dipping below the waistband of her undergarments. Miko’s cry of pleasure was hidden behind the loud boom of the first firework. Ei’s finger slipped across her already-wet folds as she massaged the sensitive skin, careful not to activate the toy that sat against her opening. She felt her girlfriend’s nails dig into her thighs as she gripped them for support.
“Ah! Miko! Watch it. Put your hands to better use, please.” Submitting to her wishes, she shifted to grab her own breasts, kneading them in time with Ei’s strokes. The Shogun could feel her hips swiveling to try to get her to speed up.
“So needy. You were like this all night, weren’t you? Well, despite your disobedience, I’m a merciful ruler,” she said as her fingers pulsed on her clit. Activating the device with her control over electro, she felt the vibrations course through Miko’s body. “I supposed you may come now.” The kitsune choked out a deep moan as she hit her peak, unable to provide a witty retort.
Now it was her turn to exact revenge on the woman behind her. Miko shimmied out of her wet panties and tossed them into the grass. With a devilish gleam in her eyes, she slid her hands up Ei’s thighs, slowly removing hers as well.
“My, my, it seems our little game has done the hard work for me already,” the Guuji teased as she expertly glided her tail between her lover’s thighs. Ei whined as the appendage flicked at her clit.
“You like that, don’t you?” Miko asked.
Ei closed her eyes, basking in the feeling. “Pardon me - I asked if you like that. Don’t ignore me!” The kitsune grabbed her chin and forced her to look at her.
“Mmmm…y-yes,” she groaned.
Satisfied with her response, her tongue slid between her lips desperately in search of more. Crawling into her lap, Miko positioned herself to slowly grind against her lover, the friction of their cores sending the Shogun nearly into oblivion.
“M-miko,” Ei whimpered against her mouth.
Placing her hands on her shoulders, the kitsune continued to rotate her hips. This time, it was Miko’s turn to wield the power of the Fontainian device between her legs. Ei jolted at the new sensation, silently thanking the genius minds of the Nation of Justice for their ingenuity.
“N-not…going to…last long,” she gasped.
“Come with me, Ei,” Miko growled into her ear before biting her earlobe. The two thrashed against one another, their screams of pleasure drowned out by the explosive grand finale.
The Shogun held her familiar tightly as she kissed her forehead. “Happy Birthday, dearest.” Her lover returned the gesture to her cheek and then nuzzled into the crook of her neck.
After Yae Miko has Kuki Miyuki bring a *top secret* item back from a business trip to Fontaine, she and Ei agree to a wager of wills - whoever can outlast the other during their annual birthday celebration wins the right to take control.

Chapter 1: Party Time
Yae Miko was proud of Kuki Miyuki. Truth be told, she didn’t think the girl had it in her. Thankfully, her initial request for her to serve as her envoy during a business trip to Fontaine proved to be fruitful. While she technically was there on behalf of Yae Publishing House, the crafty kitsune had given her a much more explicit duty – one she had carried out with a surprising amount of discretion.
“Lady Guuji…surely you jest.”
“What’s there to jest about? Just think of it as a personal favor to me. I’ve treated you well here, yes? I didn’t raise a stink when your darling little sister Shinobu decided the life of a shrine maiden wasn’t for her, hmmm?”
Miyuki couldn’t argue with her. It was the truth. Surely a bit of embarrassment was worth knowing she had repaid her in full. She sighed and tried to hide her burning cheeks lest the kitsune tease her about it.
“And where exactly am I supposed to pick up this…ahem…device when I arrive?”
“You know Chiori? The seamstress that got her start here in Inazuma? She’s set up such a successful business in the fashion world that she longed to pursue a new challenge. Those clever Fontainians are known for their advanced technologies, and their brilliant minds have crafted something I have great interest in,” she murmured as she leaned in to whisper in the girl’s ear. “I’ve heard it said that when placed in a very sensitive area, it yields great results, especially for those with an electro vision. Understand?”
Miyuki jumped backward. “Ok, ok. I get it. Find Chiori, give her the mora, then come home. Goodbye, Lady Guuji.”
Miko covered her mouth as she daintily chuckled at how uncomfortable she had made her. My, my. Are all women this easy to tease? If this was her reaction, I can’t wait to see Ei’s.
-------------------------------
Inazuma City was bustling with activity. Every citizen was aware that it was not only the Raiden Shogun’s birthday but that she often celebrated it in tandem with her “good friend” Yae Miko. Every year, the people held a party, complete with delicious dango milk and kitsune udon with double the usual amount of fried tofu.
The two typically made their rounds, thanked the townsfolk for coming out to eat, drink, and be merry in their honor, and then made a quick exit to revel more privately. This year, however, the Guuji had a far more tantalizing idea for a present.
---------------------------------
“Miko…you’re insane. I’m not wearing that out there.”
“Oh, come now. It’ll be fun. Please? For me?”
The small gadget Miyuki brought back from the Nation of Justice had already seen its fair share of use between the Shogun and the fox. Be that as it may, it was always in a very secluded setting. The kitsune was mad if she thought the Shogun of Inazuma was about to let her use the electro-powered mechanism to cause her to orgasm in front of a sea of her subjects.
“I know you get a sick thrill out of bringing me to my knees, but it’s not happening anywhere but the privacy of Tenshukaku.” Miko’s ears drooped sadly.
“However,” Ei added, a mischievous look in her eye. “I know it’s your birthday as well. I wouldn’t mind treating you to a little something out there. You’re tenacious. I know you’ll be able to keep your composure…won’t you?”
The kitsune was never one to back down from a challenge. “Interesting. What would you say to a friendly little wager, then?”
“That depends - what prize is at stake?
“I acknowledge I’m the one with the stronger will when it comes to sexual matters,” Miko stated as Ei rolled her eyes. “So, I’ll happily take the toy on. After all, with my naturally wily ways, the guests will be none the wiser.” Grabbing the vibrator, she tucked it in securely under her dress.
“In turn, I’ll use my own tricks to get you to give in to me. The first to tell the other to stop loses. If either of us comes before we are given permission, that person also loses. The winner gets to top after the party.”
“Sounds like a challenge. I accept,” the Shogun said as she shook the Guuji’s outstretched hand. Gripping it firmly, she pulled her in close. “Get ready to feel that collar tighten around your neck while I fuck you on your hands and knees, you insolent little fox.”
Miko felt a quick pulse of electric current surge through the device and quickly swallowed a moan. “Mmm…you’re awfully smug for someone who can’t keep it together at a mere brush of my fingers. Just you wait, dear. It won’t be long until I have you begging me to let you come,” she responded slyly as she slapped her behind playfully with one of her tails.
——————-
The two decided their first stop would be at one of the food stalls to grab a snack. No use teasing on an empty stomach, Ei thought. As they approached, they got in line behind Itto and Kuki Shinobu.
“Yooooooo happy b-day, Ms. Shogun! Oh, and you too, lady with the fox ears! Wassup? Havin’ a blast at your party?” The oni exclaimed loudly between munches of yakitori.
Ei raised a questioning eyebrow. “My apologies. I don’t believe we’ve met before?”
“Itto! Please stop talking and let me handle this. You’re going to embarrass the Arataki Gang. Good evening, Lady Shogun, and happiest of birthdays to you. Lady Guuji, I understand you recently sent my older sister on a very important mission. I hope she fulfilled it to your undoubtedly high expectations,” Shinobu said.
“Ah, so she did tell you. Yes, I was quite impressed with Miyuki. She did a very good joAAAAAAAA!!!” Miko exclaimed, a jolt between her thighs interrupting her. Shooting a dirty look at a subtly smirking Ei, she cleared her throat.
“Oh my, is something the matter, Lady Guuji?” The Shogun asked in faux surprise.
“AHEM! My apologies, I think my vision might’ve been letting off a bit of extra energy. As I was saying, she did our country proud while in Fontaine. I hope she brought you back a souvenir at least.”
As the kitsune and the deputy leader continued their conversation, the Shogun carefully directed small energy bursts to the device. Miko’s ears twitched as she tried her hardest to ensure her facial expressions wouldn’t betray her.
“Oy, Shinobu! I’m still hungry over here! Let’s get movin’ before the yakisoba sells out!”
Shinobu shook her head. “Can you try not to be rude for two seconds? Sorry, I better get going before he does something even more stupid than interrupting a conversation with the leader of our nation. Happy birthday again!”
The women waved her off and Miko immediately narrowed her eyes at Ei. “Was that all you had? You’ll have to try a lot harder than that. What a pleasant little tingle.”
The two continued to walk along the crowded plaza. They had to admit, the people of Inazuma had outdone themselves this year - the souvenirs were adorable. Miko reached out to feel the fur that adorned one of the small kitsune figures when she noticed Kujou Sara approach them from the corner of her vision.
“Lady Shogun, Lady Yae,” she said with a curt nod. “I’d like to extend my wishes for the happiest of birthdays to you both.”
“Oh, Sara, thank you,” Ei replied in a tone far too cheery for Miko’s liking. She pinned her ears back and rolled her eyes.
“Yes, thank you, but shouldn’t you be off somewhere feeding the crows some of your spare breadcrumbs?” she hissed, teeth bared.
“Miko! Be nice,” the Shogun reprimanded under her breath as she nudged her.
The corners of Sara’s mouth perked upward in a cruel smile. She knew just how to get back at the Guuji for her rude remark. “Actually, Lady Shogun, I was wondering if you had just a moment to discuss some future plans for Inazuma? It shouldn’t take but a moment.”
“Of course. Miko, why don’t you go get us something to drink in the meantime?” Ei requested as the two women headed toward an unoccupied table.
The Guuji sipped from her drink as she carefully watched the two interact. She grew more and more irritated at the fact no one seemed to acknowledge her. Suddenly, an idea crossed her mind.
Fine then. If she’s not going to pay attention to me, I’ll force her hand and move closer to winning our wager at the same time.
Miko took another swig, grabbed Ei by the collar of her kimono, and pressed their mouths together. Utterly shocked by her behavior, she had no time to react before the kitsune inserted her tongue between her lips, the flavor of amakumo fruit lingering on her taste buds.
Swiftly pulling away, the Guuji got up and walked off without a word, leaving a flustered Ei and speechless Sara in her wake.
“I-I uh, should let you get back to your celebration. Please apologize to Lady Yae for me - it was wrong of me to steal you away on your birthday.”
Dashing after her, the Shogun was heaving by the time she finally caught up. “Miko…wheeze…you’ve got to…wheeze…be more…careful!”
“And why would I do that, Ei? It’s my birthday, too. There were no ground rules set other than the first one to tap out loses, yes?”
“I under…stand that. But I have…appearances to keep-“ Suddenly, a very busy Yoimiya ran past before doing a double-take.
“Lady Shogun! Is that you? And Guuji Yae, too? Man, I must have gotten lucky! Happy birthday, you two! I was just running back to the house to grab the last of what I needed for the grand finale tonight. You guys are gonna love it!”
Miko smiled warmly at the girl. She had always had a soft spot for her. It was clear she was a hard worker who took pride and care in her craft. Ei had finally regained her composure after taking a moment to catch her breath.
“Ah, Miss. Naganohara. I did hear you were the one providing the entertainment after dark. I do hope you haven’t been working too hard?”
Yoimiya grinned back at her. “Never! Actually, since I have the esteemed editor-in-chief of Yae Publishing House right here, would you mind listening to a pitch I have for a light novel? I started to read them during my breaks at the shop and I have SO many ideas!”
Ei knew she would never turn down the opportunity to bring in new business. This was the moment to strike.
“Ok, little one. Give it a shot. Impress me,” Miko chimed. As the owner of Naganohana Fireworks told her tale enthusiastically, the Shogun noticed the kitsune’s tail had emerged out of excitement and was swaying happily.
“Ah, I see, I see. I think the story has promise, certainly. But have you considered-“
Ei drew closer, pretending to be enraptured by Yoimiya’s plot weaving as she stealthily gripped the base of the furry appendage. The Guuji went rigid in her hand and ceased speaking.
“Miko? Whatever’s the matter? I thought she was just getting to the good part, didn’t you?”
“Well, you see, this is exactly why I wanted to talk to you! You’ve got so much experience in publishing I figured we might be able to flesh the plot out a little more over a cup of tea sometime soon?”
Before she could answer her, Ei sent a current of electro through her fingers, causing Miko’s tail to bristle as the toy inside of her buzzed at the highest level of intensity.
“Oooooooh!!!” The kitsune’s knees buckled at the sensation, but she immediately caught herself. “My Archons! Let’s pick this conversation up another time, shall we? I’d hate for our leisurely chat to hold up the fireworks! I’ll be in touch, little one!” She said with a wave of her hand.
“Looking forward to it! Bye, you two! Enjoy the show tonight!”
Miko grabbed Ei’s arm and dragged her behind Ogura Textiles & Kimonos. Slamming her against the wall, a pile of boxes shook with the force of her movements.
“You think you’re so clever? Well, two can play at this game.” The Guuji placed her hand next to her head and violently captured her lips in a fiery kiss.
“M-miko, we mustn’t…not here…”
“Oh, shush. Nobody can see us. Plus, that kiss wasn’t the only thing I had in mind. I just needed to get you flustered again.”
Using the wall as leverage, she expertly slid her other hand past the opening of Ei’s kimono and into her panties. Pressing on her clit, she elicited a shocked shriek. The kitsune blew lightly on her neck and felt the Shogun’s arousal begin to coat her fingers. Now fully lubricated, she moved in slowly circles around the sensitive bud.
“Ahh…fuck…,” Ei moaned, throwing her hand over her mouth to tamp down the noises she was making.
“What, you can dish it but can’t take it? Just say the word, and I’ll stop, win this little game, and then you’ll get what I know you want,” Miko taunted as she nipped at her ear.
Ei bit the back of her hand. “Come on…just say you give up,” she mocked, increasing the pace.
“N-never…”
Suddenly, they heard someone running in their direction. With an annoyed sigh, Miko removed her hand, licked her fingers clean, and straightened Ei’s kimono just as the person crashed into the boxes next to them.
“Oh, oh! I’m so sorry! I’ve really got to be more careful!” Rising to his feet was none other than Gorou, the General of Watatsumi Island.
“It’s fine, no one’s injured. Are you alright?” The kitsune asked with an edge of annoyance in her voice.
“Eeep! L-l-lady Yae and…oh, Archons! Lady Shogun! Dear me, I promise I didn’t see or hear anything...” Gorou stated as he looked around nervously.
“Whatever do you mean, General? I was simply helping her fix her kimono. Isn’t that right, Ei?”
The Shogun tried to sound convincing. “Why, yes, that’s right. It got snagged on a bush earlier and she was…helping me mend it.”
Gorou chuckled awkwardly. “Y-yes…yes, of course.”
“Hopefully that fluffy tail of yours wasn’t harmed when you fell,” Miko hummed. The General immediately grabbed it, desperate to get out of the situation he now found himself in.
“I really should be going. I have to keep looking for Her Excellency. I’m fine, thank you, and happy birthday to you both,” he said before running off in the opposite direction.
The Guuji chuckled before turning back to Ei. “Enough games. Perhaps we call a truce? What say you to finishing this on Amakane Island?”
The Shogun cocked her head. “…but what about the fireworks?”
Miko leaned in to whisper in her ear. “Ei, dear…I’m sure we can make some ourselves.”

You’re no longer of any use to me, Yae Miko. You may take your leave.
The kitsune felt her throat constrict.
“Ei, w-what are you saying? Surely you jest.”
Silence. You will address me as Raiden Shogun. We are not, nor have we ever been, equals. This is no laughing matter, Guuji Yae. You’ve served your purpose. Go.
Miko dropped to her knees. Her eyes stung with tears that clung on for dear life lest she appear weak in front of her god.
“E-Raiden Shogun…I…what have I done wrong? I live to serve you and only you. What’s changed? Have I failed you in some way? Please, I’ll do anything necessary to-“
Are you deaf? Or just stupid? Perhaps both? I won’t say it a second time. Get out of my sight before I have you dragged out.
She tried to form words, but all she could manage was a pitiful choking noise. The sharp pierce of her foxlike nails scratched at her throat as she attempted to suck air into her lungs.
Guards! Remove this sorry creature from Tenshukaku.
These were the last words she heard before her vision went black.
——————
“NO! Ei! Wait!”
Miko jolted upright on the futon she usually shared with the woman in question. Drenched in sweat, she panted deeply as she tried to regulate her heartbeat. Thankful it was nothing but an absolutely horrid nightmare, she once again found it difficult to breathe.
Her hand grasped at the sheets beneath her.
Cold?
There were no signs of body heat permeating the fabric beneath the pads of her fingertips. Her mind spiraled.
Everything is fine. Deep breaths. She probably couldn’t sleep and went for a short walk…right?
Her ears perked up and strained in a desperate attempt to perceive even a hint of a sound that would indicate Ei was still in the vicinity. The only thing she could hear was her own hyperventilating.
Sadly, these episodes were not uncommon. Even after the Raiden Shogun’s return from the Plane of Euthymia, Miko couldn’t shake the trauma of 500 years of waiting and wanting. Since Ei had come back to her, they had made many new memories, but it would take more than the searing heat of skin-on-skin to ease her fears of abandonment.
“Miko…Miko!”
The kitsune snapped back to reality thanks to a few solid shakes to the shoulders, tears streaming in waterfalls down her face.
“Miko! Stay with me! What’s wrong?” Ei’s firm but gentle voice reached for her and pulled her back to the present. She sought the familiar lavender haze of her lover’s eyes.
“Ei…I…You’re really here, correct? This isn’t a dream?”
“Miko, you’re frightening me,” she said as she wiped the tears from her cheeks with her thumbs. “Yes, I’m here. I only left to get a drink of water. What in the name of the archons happened?”
She pulled Ei to her in a tight embrace, sobbing as she spoke.
“Since you’ve come back…I…I keep having nightmares…about how things might have ended up had the traveler not brought you back to your senses.”
She pulled back and pinned Ei with her gaze, hoping to find the truth reflected in her eyes.
“When you were seeking eternity…when you said you wanted nothing to change, did you mean our relationship as well? Or did I not even cross your mind? Do you really want me here? Am I still a part of the eternity you envisioned?”
Ei jerked back as if she had been slapped across the face.
“H-how could you even think that? Miko, how long have you been questioning how I feel about you? Why would you not just come to me immediately?” She inquired as she stroked her hair.
“I know you must have been facing your own demons, Ei. It must seem ridiculous to you that I’d be worried. I’m still trying to process everything that’s happened since you came back. I’m just…confused, I think. Perhaps if I distract myself, I’ll be able to set my head straight and this will hopefully not become a reoccurring issue.”
The Shogun took her hands in hers. “Miko. We shouldn’t run from this. I won’t let you face your fears alone, especially when I seem to be the cause of them.”
The guuji looked away. “It’s not that you’re the cause of them, Ei. There’s a part of me that kicks myself every time this happens. When we fall asleep together, I’m fine. Your presence is enough to reassure me. It’s only my imagination running wild. Can you just…hold me tonight? At least until I drift off?”
Ei smiled sweetly. “If that’s more comfortable to you than talking through this, then of course, my love.” She lifted the comforter and drew her to her from behind. Draping her arm across her waist, she felt Miko wiggle deeper into her. The only thing she desired was to melt into her warm embrace and forget what life without her felt like. Her initial departure had left a scar on her soul that would likely never heal completely. But for now, this was enough.
Minutes turned to an hour and Ei could sense something still wasn’t right. “Miko, dear…are you still awake?” She whispered. The kitsune replied with a soft hum in the affirmative. “You really need to get some sleep. You’ve got to head back to Grand Narukami Shrine tomorrow, correct?”
Miko softly sighed in resignation. “Yes, you’re right. I’m trying, Ei, really. I think the adrenaline is making it difficult.” The Shogun held her tighter at this admission. At the risk of seeming insensitive, she figured there was one other way to help her.
“Miko…excuse me if this is inconsiderate, as it’s certainly not my intention, but…would a bit of…intimacy help, perhaps? I understand relieving stress in that way can aid sleep.” She was surprised to feel the guuji’s tail start to wag against her lower half. Ei grinned to herself. I’ll take that as a yes, then.
The hand that rested against her belly moved upward, her fingers trailing the seam of the kimono she slept in. She could feel Miko’s breath hitch and then grow ragged in anticipation.
“You’ll be a good little kitsune and surrender yourself to me, hmm?”
Miko sighed. “Well, I do promise not to bite…hard.”
Good. At least she’s starting to sound more like herself again. The shogun thought to herself, a bit more relieved.
“Cheeky little thing,” Ei murmured against the back of her neck. “Are you sure you’re up for this? Say no and I’ll stop.”
“Yes…please. Show me you’re here to stay, Ei. Don’t let me go.”
The softness of the resignation in her tone nearly broke the shogun’s heart. The damage she had caused was irrevocable, and she had sworn to herself she’d spend the rest of eternity making it up to her. Her fingers transitioned from the cloth of Miko’s kimono to her skin.
“I’m not going anywhere. I swear it on my position as archon,” she promised as she brushed her lips against her shoulder. Miko shuttered at the tender gesture.
“Then I’m yours.”
Ei’s hand gently kneaded the kitsune’s breast, watching as her ears snapped to attention - a very good sign. Miko’s nipple swelled between the shogun’s fingertips, causing her to let out a whimper.
“Oh, I can tell you like that. While I’m sure you’ll be plenty wet for me, care to lend me your tongue?” She brought her fingers to Miko’s mouth, which she eagerly sucked and nipped at.
“That’s a good girl,” she praised as she moved her hand to slip below the already loosened belt barely holding the kimono together. The night air was just cool enough for Ei to see goosebumps rise against the kitsune’s pale flesh. “You’re so gorgeous, Miko.
The moonlight only accentuates your beauty.” She slipped into her with ease, her arousal mixing with the already-dampened skin of her fingers. Ei felt her tail go still.
The shogun began slowly, creating a rhythm that ensured a buildup that would result in a powerful finale. She could feel the kitsune start to rock her hips in time and took it as a signal to move faster.
“All you need to do is ask, my love. I’m yours until the end of eternity.” Ei worked her sensitive bud between her fingers and felt Miko grip her wrist.
“Ei! Faster…please…I’m right there-“
With that, Ei sent a slight pulse of electro energy directly to her clit, causing Miko to scream out.
“EI!! FUCK!” Her ears shot back as she came on the shogun’s lithe fingers. As the kitsune lay there spent, Ei once more hugged her close.
Miko rolled to her side and gave her a few small pecks on her lips. Ei ran her hand through her hair, searching her face for any sign of remaining discomfort. Judging by the satiated smirk she was greeted with, all seemed well.
“Thank you, Ei. That was much needed. But I think this had the opposite of the desired effect. Now that I have a bit more energy…let me repay you,” Miko purred.
She wrapped Ei’s leg around her waist, leaning in to nuzzle her chest as she kneaded her breast.
“M-miko…this is about you, my love. Please don’t worry about me. I just wanted you to be able to get some sleep,” she responded, an evident hitch in her breathing present.
“Mmmm…but I want to show you how much you need me. Consider it a reminder as to why you’ll never leave,” Miko replied as she bit her ear.
“Fuck, Miko…never again…I promise,” Ei groaned.
The kitsune slid her hand between the two of them, her index and middle finger now rubbing Ei’s sensitive bud. Kissing down from her neck to her chest, she latched onto her erect nipple, every swirl of her tongue sending an electric charge through Ei’s body.
“Archons…fuck…Miko!” Ei murmured in encouragement.
Miko slipped both of her slick-coated fingers into her and pumped in and out as her thumb moved to work the other woman’s clit. The sensation was so intense Ei gripped the kitsune’s body tighter to her own. Her pace reached a fever pitch and the shogun spasmed around her.
The quiet evening stood frozen in time around them. Miko’s ears twitched as the sounds of the night drifted through the room they now shared. Ei’s steady voice sliced through the silence, sharp as her katana.
“I love you, Miko. Nothing is going to change that.” She brushed her lips against her forehead. “Rest well.”

Summary:
Ei is back, and Miko is conflicted. Wasn’t this the moment she had been waiting 500 years for? If so, why does she feel so…upset? In an attempt to keep things professional, she agrees to a meeting that ends slightly differently than what she may have been expecting.
Read on Ao3
Yae Miko was not typically the sentimental type. As editor-in-chief of Yae Publishing House, she had read so many light novels centered around fairy tale romances that she thought she had become immune to the way her heart would race when she thought of…the Raiden Shogun.
At times she despised hearing the woman she knew intimately as Ei be called by that damnable title - one that should be reserved for someone more…responsible. Someone who actually thought of the well-being of her people and hadn’t run away and left duty to a puppet, of all things.
Miko thought she was over it. That she’d be so filled with gratitude to the Traveler for bringing back the woman she would have gladly waited 500 more years for if she had to. Perhaps it hadn’t fully sunk in at the time. When their eyes finally met in the Plane of Euthymia, Miko was…frightened. Frightened by what she felt at that moment. These were eyes that had a soul, unlike the empty vessel that had been sitting in Tenshukaku doing the dirty work.
As she walked the streets of Inazuma City, she couldn’t help but wonder: Now that the dust had settled after their whirlwind of a reunion, where did it leave them? How, after centuries of not so much as a proper goodbye, could her heart betray her like this? The mere thought of seeing Ei’s gentle smile directed at her once more made her chest throb.
And yet…she had agreed to an audience with her. There was much to discuss, and Miko planned to keep things strictly professional. Above all, they had a country to run. Personal feelings aside, they both had a duty to the people of Inazuma.
“Guuji Yae,” the guard at the gate addressed her with a deep bow. “The Shogun has been expecting you.”
“Oh, dear. Hopefully I didn’t keep her waiting longer than 500 years,” she said with a roll of her eyes.
Unsure of how to respond, he wordlessly moved to the side and opened the door. She swiftly made her way to the inner chamber, took a deep breath, and entered.
Ei glanced up as she heard her enter. “Leave us,” she instructed the two men serving as her personal guards. They didn’t hesitate to remove themselves from the premises.
Miko took a seat in front of her. “Stoic as ever, I see,” she commented. “I’m sure you didn’t call me here just to catch up on the latest gossip. Can we get to the point? I’ve got manuscripts piled on my desk that need my impeccable eye for detail.”
Ei’s expression softened. “Miko…we must talk. Ever since I returned you’ve seemed…distant.” The kitsune felt every hair on her body stand on end. She rose to her feet in fury.
“I seem distant? ME? Distant! Hah! Imagine that. It’s not like I haven’t seen the woman I swore to serve in centuries. Heavens, no,” she strode over to the archon and brought her face closer than she should have dared to. “Tell me, oh great and mighty Shogun, why might that be? Hmm?”
“Miko…I-I don’t understand. Aren’t you happy we can now pick up where we left off after all these years?” She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
“Do you hear yourself, Ei? Are you really that naive? I spent the last 500 years loyally doing my duty as best I could. Unlike you, I didn’t run and hide from my responsibilities.”
Ei narrowed her eyes. “Hold your tongue, Miko. You have no idea the weight I hold on my shoulders in this position. The responsibility, the suffering, the losses I’ve faced…”
Miko felt as if she’d just been slapped across the face. “The suffering? The losses you’ve faced, Ei? What about the losses I’ve endured?” Despite her attempts to remain strong, tears began to fall.
“Were you truly so terrified of change that you would hide for all eternity? That you would take advantage of the knowledge that I’d wait for you as long as it took? I loved you, Ei! I loved you and would have done anything to keep you here with me, but you ran like a coward. Eternity may have seemed like heaven to you, but it was hell for me! Do you still not understand?”
Ei stared wide-eyed at her. “Miko…you…love me?”
Miko stared past Ei, focusing on the pattern of the walls behind her instead of the god - her god - before her. She didn’t mean to say those three words…they’d just slipped out.
“Miko,” she whispered as she reached for her hand. “I swear I never meant to hurt you. If I would have known…”
“Ha! Hurt? What clued you in? I’m not just hurt, Ei. At first, I was hurt, angry, frustrated…but at a certain point, I….” her voice trailed off, not daring to give her the satisfaction of knowing there was a different emotion that emerged stronger than any of these.
Miko had already said the words she could never take back. She wasn’t going to tell her about the loneliness she felt across those endless years. How she longed for their playful banter. How she yearned for her late at night when she looked out at the Inazuman sky. How she wanted to feel her soft lips brush her own under the Sakura trees of their home country. But no. Ei wasn’t entitled to these thoughts and feelings. She had left her with instructions and a puppet in her place, lifeless compared to the woman she thought she once knew.
“Miko,” Ei whispered, “I was selfish…I know that now. But you must understand - I lost the person I cared for most and was uncertain of how to handle living in such despair.”
Miko’s ears folded back and she began to cry harder. “I just confessed that I love her, and she has the gall to tell me I’m not the person she cares for most,” Miko thought as her vision blurred.
“I understood your need to grieve. But I was still there for you. She was your twin; that is a bond not easily broken. I understood needing to go to a quiet place for a while, but when days turned into months turned into years…,” she choked on the last word. “You abandoned me, Ei.”
The Shogun stepped close, placing her hands gently on both sides of her face. Her thumbs wiped at the tears Miko had tried so hard to keep bottled up inside.
“During those centuries in isolation…” she paused, thinking of how to word what she was trying to convey. “At first, all I thought of was my sister. But as time ticked on, I realized she wasn’t who my heart was truly longing for. While I will always love and miss her fiercely, it was your voice I would hear and your touches I’d think of to help bring me back from the abyss of despair I found myself in.”
Miko looked up at her and rolled her eyes, desperately trying not to cave. What she wanted more than anything was to collapse into her arms. “You don’t have to say those things just because it’s what you think I want to hear,” Miko whined, her bottom lip quivering.
“The funny thing about trying to run away from your feelings is that you’ll always be fighting a losing battle. Try as I might, I was never able to escape them. It was always you, Miko. By the time I finally came to my senses, I was ashamed and didn’t know if you would ever want anything to do with me again. Yet here I am, baring my soul as you did to me. To hell with eternity. Eternity without the woman I love by my side is not somewhere I ever want to be.”
Miko broke. She had gone into this resolutely thinking she would make Ei regret leaving her behind, but now that she was here in front of her admitting she reciprocated her feelings, there was no need to play games. They had 500 years of passion locked inside of them, and it was high time they acted on it.
Miko leaned in further, close enough that Ei could feel her breath on her lips. “If we’re going to do this, I need you to swear on your life you’ll never leave me again, Ei. I can’t give you my heart if you’re just going to shatter it.”
At that point, no words were needed. There was zero hesitation in the way their lips met in a searing kiss that sealed the promise between them.
Miko’s ears pricked up at the sound of her soft moan of appreciation. She became hyper-aware of the sensation of Ei’s hands entwined in her hair as she drew her closer. Testing the waters, Miko took her bottom lip between one of her sharp canines and bit down lightly. Ei let out a noise that encouraged her to proceed, her tongue flicking out to lick her fang. The kitsune elicited an animalistic whine at the daring move.
“Ohhhhh Ei…that’s dangerous…you better watch it or I might not be able to control myself,” she whispered threateningly.
Ei opened her eyes and met her challenging gaze fearlessly. “Don’t hold back on my account. I can handle it, I assure you.”
“Is that so, dear?” she said as she moved her hand to Ei’s neck to keep her steady. Shifting to whisper in her ear, Ei could feel her nails dig just a bit deeper into her skin, enough to make her wince in what a weaker woman might feel as pain. “Then I hope you’re prepared to make up for lost time because we aren’t leaving this room for a while.”
Ei felt her march her back until her shoulders hit the nearest wall. “Since you’re so tough, I don’t think you’ll mind standing for this,” Miko said, a wicked grin appearing on her face. “Let’s call it a test of endurance. But first, we’ll need to do away with this…”
She reached down and undid the belt of Ei’s kimono with one swift pull. Miko’s eyes went wide as she took in the sight of her. How she longed to mark her unblemished skin with signs of possession that only she could leave behind.
Ei let out a soft chuckle. “My, what big eyes you have.”
“Oh hush,” Miko chastised as she rolled her eyes then leaned down to bite her shoulder. “You humans and your silly little fairy tales. I may be a fox rather than a wolf, but that only means I’m more cunning. Now open your legs for me,” she commanded.
A deep scarlet blush spread across Ei’s face as she did as she was told. Miko continued to nip and lick down her chest as she brought her hand lower. Ei’s hips twitched in anticipation.
“That desperate, hmmm? Tell me, what kind of sounds does an archon make when they come? I suppose I’m about to find out.”
She dropped to her knees in front of her and Ei was thankful she had her back against a wall for support. Miko grabbed and spread her thighs further, inserting herself in between them. Staring up through her lashes, she directed, “Look at me, Ei. I want you to watch me.” She did so defiantly until Miko’s tongue met her sex in a long, languid swipe.
“Ah…Mikooooo,” she hissed.
Savoring her taste, Miko hummed in approval. “You’re going to need to be louder than that. Am I really doing that poor of a job?” she said with a mock pout. “Perhaps I need to be a bit more…forceful.” She pressed her face in deeper, her nose now hitting her clit as her tongue thrust inside of her.
“Fuck! M-m-miko!” Ei shouted as she gripped her head just above her ears. A pulse of pleasure shot through Miko at her touch, but she wasn’t quite ready to let her in on that little secret of sensitivity.
Instead, a muffled “that’s better” came in response. She continued to lap at her folds until she could feel her begin to shake. Shifting her tongue to focus on the bundle of nerves at the top, she began to suck just hard enough so Ei’s grip on her hair intensified.
“Miko! Agh! I’m coming…” she moaned as her knees buckled. Luckily Miko was no weakling and caught her with ease, cutting off her scream of ecstasy with a deep kiss. Despite being depleted of energy, Ei showed her appreciation by delving her tongue into Miko’s mouth once more to trace across both of her fangs.
Miko’s moan reverberated against her lips. The fact Ei cared enough to show some love to her non-human side made her melt into her arms. The two pulled apart, gasping for air. Ei’s index finger slid across Miko’s lips wiping away a string of saliva that still connected them.
Running her hand through her pink hair, Ei’s fingers once again grazed Miko’s ears. This motion earned her a soft whine from the kitsune and she made a mental note to ask her about it later.
“Ei…I need you,” Miko whispered, her eyes sparkling with lust.
The Shogun spun her needy lover to sit facing the wall she was writhing on just moments ago and pulled at the belt that held her kimono together. With a snap of her fingers, a mirror appeared in front of Miko. Ei leaned down and kissed her cheek before settling behind her and placing her between her legs.
Kissing down Miko’s neck, her lips grazed her shoulder as she strategically selected where to stop to nip and suck. Sharp red marks rose to the surface of Miko’s skin as Ei’s hands massaged her breasts and played with her nipples.
“Ah…ahhhh…it’s been so long, Ei…”
“I know. I’ve missed this, my little minx,” she said as she smiled against her shoulder.
Ei removed her hands, deciding instead to place them on Miko’s thighs, slowly parting them. “Now, be a good little fox and stay like this,” Ei instructed.
Miko raised her hooded gaze to see herself in the mirror. Her reflection revealed flushed cheeks still damp with traces of Ei’s sweet nectar, her spread legs exposing her own arousal dripping onto the floor.
“My, my. Look at you, all needy and ready for me in no time at all,” Ei cunningly said as she took in the beautiful scene in front of her. Moving her hands back to Miko’s breasts, she continued her ministrations.
“Ooooo Eeeii…I want more,” Miko whined turning her head to seek her lover’s mouth.
“Patience, my love. We’ll get there. I promise not to keep you waiting this time,” Ei responded as she placed her lips on hers.
Ei’s eyes glowed a deep violet and Miko could feel sparks prick at her skin where her lips and hands touched. Her fingers now slid from her chest down past her stomach to rest on her hips. The other hand followed suit, but traveled further south and parted her lips with two fingers, spreading her open to an even greater extent. With the pulse of her abilities still coursing through her fingertips she moved the other hand to the bundle of nerves and lightly rubbed it.
“Unghhhhhh!” was the only sound Miko could muster. Ei toyed with her as her moans became louder.
Ei’s lips brushed against her ear as she whispered, “Now watch.”
Miko focused on the mirror as she watched two of Ei’s fingers disappear inside of her. She let out a sharp gasp as Ei started to pump and curl her fingers inside her. Slight jolts of electricity pulsed in time with her rhythm.
“Oooooooh Ei! Yes! Fuck! Right t-t-there!” Miko shrieked.
Ei quickly moved her other hand to Miko’s mouth. “Shhhhh. We must be quiet; we don’t want the guards to think something is amiss now do we?”
Miko shook her head in the negative as she moaned into Ei’s hand. With a few more thrusts, Miko threw her head back onto Ei’s shoulder shaking as she came. Ei kissed the side of her forehead in reassurance before withdrawing her hand.
As Miko’s panting slowed, she could feel the beating of Ei’s heart where her chest met her back. This wasn’t just a dream. She was here again. A living, breathing being, not some puppet with a faraway gaze who acted on orders without argument. After 500 years, the woman she would have waited a millennium for was finally back where she belonged - by her side.
The King of Invokations Grand Prix is well underway, but the tale of Ei and Miko’s ferocious bout has yet to be told. We know Miko used some of her “little tricks,” but what exactly were they, and how are things settled after the fact? We head back to Miko’s room at the Grand Narukami Shrine to find out.
Read on Ao3
The day of the semi-finals of the largest Genius Invokation TCG tournament in all of Teyvat had arrived. Nearly everybody in Inazuma had showed up for what was sure to be an intense bout between two very powerful players. To many of the citizens’ surprise, even the Shogun herself participated, battling as if she had been playing the game for the 500 years she was in solitude.
That is…until she saw who she was up against in the next-to-final round. Her opponent, Yae Miko, had a different kind of advantage. Unlike the Shogun’s other adversaries who were afraid of going all-out for fear of making their country’s leader look bad, Miko had no problem bringing her A-game. She had some tricks up her sleeve and had no intention of letting Ei take an easy win.
They sat across from each other at the small rectangular table adorned with the crest of Inazuma. Their three main character cards lay before them, widely sprawled out so onlookers would have an opportunity to pay attention to their tactics and maybe adapt them for themselves in future games.
“Oh, come now, Ei! Do you mean to tell me you don’t have my card as a part of your deck? I’m hurt!” Miko pointed out, a mock frown adorning her face.
“It appears you don’t have mine, either,” Ei quickly responded.
Ei knew Miko wasn’t going to be like the other challengers she had previously competed against. Being a fox yokai, Miko had a reputation for toying with rivals to make games more entertaining.
The first round began, and Ei attacked Miko’s card without mercy.
“You wound me with this viciousness, Ei. I think you should kiss me and make it better,” Miko whispered under her breath but loud enough for her opponent to hear.
Ei glanced up and shot her a terse warning look as a soft blush began to grow across her cheeks. Miko chuckled victoriously as she finished her turn. Both women changed their main card to another and ended the first round.
As Ei rolled the dice around in her hand, Miko feigned concern. “Oh my, look at that! I must have dropped some dango on my shirt,” she said as she ran her thumb across her chest, pretending to pick at the non-existent stain.
Distracted by Miko’s teasing, Ei mistakenly dropped the dice and received none of the correct elemental insignia she required for the card she had. Careful not to sully her reputation in front of the onlookers, Ei ran her middle finger across her brow in frustration as her opponent laughed and rolled her dice.
Ei discarded some of her cards to make her next move. Beginning her turn, Miko slowly slid her foot up and down Ei’s leg. Swallowing hard, Ei tried her best to focus on the cards in her hand to determine what her next move would be.
“What’s the matter, Ei? I invited you out here for some fun and games, and you don’t seem to be enjoying yourself,” Miko taunted.
Ei was struggling to keep her composure, refusing to reveal how flustered Miko’s antics were making her. Miko didn’t cease her movement. Ei ended up skipping her turn, and Miko took out her other two cards. On the next round, Ei returned the favor and took out two of Miko’s.
“Look at that. Our character cards also want to play against one another. I wonder if mine will top yours? I mean…come out on top,” Miko murmured seductively.
“From my experience, your card does better being brought under submission by mine. But things can change,” Ei smirked back.
Holding on to the remaining two cards in her hand, Ei plotted the move she’d make to kill off her opponent’s last card. Miko reached across the table and glided her hand across Ei’s, tracing a heart on the back of her hand before resting it on her wrist.
Ei’s focus slipped, and she could no longer take the teasing as she skipped her turn. Miko took the initiative and emerged victorious.
“Told you I’d come out on top!” Miko stated with a smirk.
Ei narrowed her gaze. “It seems you have…for the time being. However, I wouldn’t get used to it,” she responded as they both rose to their feet and shook hands in a show of good sportsmanship for the crowd. Miko winced slightly as Ei’s grip tightened against her own, her nails digging into her skin just a bit too hard.
—————
The two women navigated around the piles of discarded clothing that now littered the floor of Miko’s room at the Grand Narukami Shrine.
“Oh, Miko. You thought you were being so sneaky with your little tricks,” Ei breathed against her neck between ferocious kisses. “You may have won the battle, but we both know I have more experience when it comes to war.” Miko let out a yelp as Ei’s teeth met her skin.
“Didn’t I say…trickery within the scope of the rules is…better known as ingenuity?” Her body betrayed her as she tilted her head back to give her better access. “It’s not my fault some people spend all their time cooped up in Tenshukaku and never have the chance to hone their skills…mmmmm…” Ei’s hand tangled in her hair as she tugged her flush against her body.
“Hmmm, you speak as if you hadn’t once told me a bolt of lightning from me would make your fur stand on end.” Indeed, as Ei’s fingers traveled over Miko’s now exposed chest, she felt static emanate from her fingertips.
“You wouldn’t dare…” Miko gasped.
“Oh, but wouldn’t I?” Ei rolled Miko’s taut nipple between her thumb and forefinger, a jolt of electro energy pulsing between them.
“UGHHHH!” She felt desire start to pool between her thighs as she desperately pressed against the leg Ei had lodged between them.
“Ah, ah, ah, you conniving little fox. You’re not getting off that easy. Admit you cheated, and I might have mercy on you,” she said as she pinned her against the mattress, stilling Miko’s thrusts.
“Ei, you know that’s not fair. Don’t be such a sore loser. As Shogun, you’re just not used to not getting your way. I think it’s you that needs to admit you can’t believe I bested you,” Miko said with a cocky grin.
“My, I suppose you really have no desire to feel anything other than the thrill of an illegitimate conquest,” Ei retorted as she nipped at her ear.
“AH! Damn you, Ei! You know those are sensitive!” Miko wriggled beneath her, arching into Ei’s hands as they palmed her breasts.
“Oh, I’m aware. You didn’t play fair, so neither shall I.” Ei felt the tender flesh at the juncture of Miko’s neck and shoulder shutter under her tongue. “I’ll give you one last chance…” she said as her fingers trailed below her belly. “Who is your archon?”
As Ei’s amethyst-colored eyes met Miko’s own, the kitsune knew she’d have to give in to obtain the prize she truly desired - her card game triumph wasn’t nearly as divine as the sensation of her lover’s fingers on - and in - her body. She leaned up to capture Ei’s lips in a heated kiss. When they broke away, Miko whispered, “You are, for all eternity.”
Satisfied with her answer, Ei slid inside her. Miko could feel her eyes roll back in her head at the full feeling of two of her digits. Ei could hear her panting getting heavier with each thrust.
“Hmmm…see? That wasn’t so hard now, was it? You’re so adorable when you’re not talking back to me with that smart mouth of yours.”
“Seeing as how you’ve repented of your disrespectful behavior…I suppose I could let you come,” Ei taunted as she worked at her clit with her thumb. “Go on, then…moan for me like a good girl.”
“AHHHH Ei!!” She screamed as she shuttered around Ei’s now soaking-wet fingers.
Once her breathing had steadied, Miko suddenly pulled Ei down against her and embraced her in a hug. Giving her feather-light kisses to throw her off guard, she quickly tightened her grip and rolled on top of her.
Miko straddled Ei’s lap, swiping her thumb across her bottom lip as she took in the sight of the woman now beneath her. Ei nipped at the finger to get her attention.
Miko hummed in mock disapproval. “If I recall correctly, didn’t I tell you I’d come out on top?”
Ei smirked in response. “This time, it was only because you used one of your dirty little tricks on me, as per usual.” She used both hands to lightly massage Miko’s ears. Miko closed her eyes and let out a throaty moan.
“My tricks, you say? As you play with my sensitive ears to distract me,” She growled before grinding her hips against Ei’s, eliciting a whimper in response.
Ei breathlessly responded, “You’re not the only one with a few up their sleeve, my love.”
Miko gently guided her hands away from her ears and intertwined them with hers before pinning them to the bed on opposite sides of Ei’s head.
She leaned down and pressed heated kisses between them. Miko’s lips shifted down Ei’s jaw to her neck, leaving obvious bite marks in her wake. Licking from her collarbone down to her chest, she swirled her tongue and latched on. Ei’s chest rose and fell rapidly as her breath hitched in response.
Miko sat up once more. “You know, I once told one of my writers I’d never eat anyone. I suppose I may have bent the truth because I’ve devoured you before and plan to do so frequently,” she purred.
Her tongue slithered its way into Ei’s mouth, and Ei partook of a taste that was very uniquely Miko. Releasing her hands, she made her way between Ei’s legs. Parting them slowly, she kissed down her thighs, nipping and sucking her way to her entrance.
As Miko licked between her folds, Ei moaned her name. Stopping to swirl her tongue on the bud of nerves she knew would make her see stars, Miko felt her hips rock against her face.Â
“Ah…Miko!” Ei groaned.
Miko continued tasting her wet heat as she inserted two fingers into her core. Ei threw both of her hands into Miko’s hair, dragging her further in. As Miko increased her pace, Ei could no longer control herself. Her legs wrapped tightly around Miko’s head as she spasmed around her fingers.
“Ahh…hah…ahh…Miko…yesss!” Ei screamed. Miko kissed up to her hips and rested there as she lazily stroked her fingers against her thigh. Once she could feel her breathing return to normal, she shifted to Ei’s side and leaned her head on her shoulder.
“So…” Miko whispered. “How about a rematch?”
